*In this episode, you'll discover a three-step framework for exposing the unconscious patterns quietly running your life and learn exactly how to flip each one.* ## Episode Summary In this episode, I introduce a very helpful life transformation framework called “Identity Inversion.” It's a simple exercise I designed (based on my own self-experimentation!) for identifying unconscious patterns, habits, and identity traps that are keeping you from becoming the best version of your broken self. Using two relatable examples (a man addicted to the gym for self-worth and a woman addicted to productivity for approval), I’ll walk you through a three-step process: describe the pattern in a paragraph, name its redemptive opposite in a sentence, then distill it into a single word that becomes the key to redrawing your identity. Next week, so you can get a really concrete idea of what this looks like, I’ll share my own 10 identity inversions. ## Question of the Day

How your people feel determines how your business performs. Scott describes leadership presence as a spectrum: Chaotic & Unstable Emotional swings Reactive behavior Fear-based culture Team anxiety Calm & Stable Predictable demeanor Emotional steadiness Psychological safety Clear direction The question isn't “Am I a good leader?” The better question is:

Further reading: Identifying the beasts in Caesar's forest Reindeer: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. After the glaciers retreated from Europe at the end of the last ice age, around 11,000 years ago, forests grew wherever there was enough soil to support a tree. As these new forests spread, they joined forests that had survived the glaciations. By the time ancient Romans were writing about the things they encountered while exploring western Europe, around 2,000 years ago, the forest stretched across much of the continent and was considered a wild, dangerous place. They called it the Hercynian [her-SIN-ian] forest and it was supposed to be full of peculiar animals. An account of the forest appears in the book Commentarii del Bello Gallico, the first edition of which was published just over 2,000 years ago in 49 BCE. It was written by Julius Caesar, or at least he was involved in it even if he didn't actually write it personally, since it was about his military campaigns. In one section of the book he discusses the Hercynian forest and three remarkable animals that lived in it. The first was called the uri, which were supposed to look like bulls but were almost the size of elephants, and were incredibly aggressive. This is probably the same animal often called the aurochs, which we talked about in episode 58. The aurochs was probably the wild ancestor of the domesticated cow and could stand almost six feet tall at the shoulder, or 1.8 meters. It had already gone extinct in most places 500 years before Caesar wrote his book, but it still lived in parts of Europe. The second animal is a lot harder to identify. The alces looked like a big goat that either didn't have horns or had very short ones, but its legs didn't have joints. If an alces fell over, it couldn't get up again. Caesar explained that hunters used this to their advantage. Because the alces couldn't lie down at night, it would sleep by propping itself against a tree. The hunters would note which tree an alces preferred, and during the day they'd cut a notch in the trunk. When the alces leaned against it at night to sleep, the tree would topple over, taking the animal with it. The waiting hunters would then be able to just stroll up and kill the alces. Naturally, this story doesn't make any sense. All tetrapods have jointed legs. But the story of an animal without joints in its legs crops up in various stories from around this time, including the part where hunters cut a notch in a tree trunk to knock the animal over. It's a story once told about the elephant and the Eurasian elk, among others, and the alces was probably based on the Eurasian elk. That's the Eurasian population of the animal called the moose in North America. Because the story specifies that the alces either didn't have horns or had very small ones, it's possible that Caesar based his story on the female elk, which doesn't have antlers. Incidentally, we're so certain that the alces was the same animal as the Eurasian elk that its scientific name is actually Alces alces. Finally, the Hercynian deer was likewise large and had a single horn. A translation of the passage states: “There is an ox with the shape of a deer; projecting out of its forehead, in the middle, between the ears, is a single horn, which is both longer and more upright than those horns we are used to seeing.” Other sources that talk about this animal also say that the horn branched at the end, and Caesar notes that both males and females had these horns. This gives us a big clue as to what animal might have inspired the account. Unlike most deer, both male and female reindeer have antlers. Unlike caribou, the North American reindeer species, the European reindeer often has relatively long and straight main shafts on its antlers that then enlarge at the end in what's called a palmate structure. That basically means it's shaped like a hand. But reindeer have two antlers, not one. It's possible that the story of the Hercynian deer was inspired by the unicorn legend, which was based on the rhinoceros. It might also have been inspired by Caesar sighting a reindeer that had dropped one antler but hadn't yet lost the other one, since like other deer, reindeer shed their antlers and regrow them every year. The reason Caesar wrote about the animals of the Hercynian forest in the first place was to underline how strange and uncivilized the people living in the area were. The people in question are what today we would call Germans. Caesar stresses that all these animals are ones never seen anywhere else, and he might easily have added exotic details from other fabulous animals to make these animals seem extra weird. These days most of the Hercynian forest is long gone, chopped down for people to turn into farmland and towns. While the Eurasian elk and the reindeer are still around, they no longer live as far south as Germany. The last aurochs went extinct in 1627 in Poland. But the German people are doing just fine, and they're a lot more civilized than Caesar gave them credit for 2,000 years ago. Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

Send a textIn this episode of The Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Seigel breaks down one of the most overlooked—but most critical—elements of private practice ownership: defining your endgame and building a deliberate exit strategy. Rather than reacting to burnout, retirement pressure, or market shifts, Brandon challenges practice owners to forecast their “final play” early and let that vision drive every operational, financial, and leadership decision. From realistic valuation multiples and EBITDA expectations to why only a small percentage of practices ever sell successfully, this episode reframes exit planning as a growth discipline—not an afterthought.Listeners are guided through practical exit scenarios, buyer types (family, employees, competitors, private equity), and the metrics buyers actually care about—clean financials, upward growth trends, scalable systems, and strong human capital. Brandon also outlines common valuation mistakes, tax considerations, timing strategies, and the importance of planning at least 5–7 years in advance. The result is a clear, executive-level roadmap for maximizing practice value, protecting legacy, and exiting on your terms—so you can thrive long before the sale ever happens.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel! Brandon Seigel, President of Wellness Works Management Partners, is an internationally known private practice consultant with over fifteen years of executive leadership experience.

In this episode, Jack Cochran and Matthew James continue their conversation with Micah Joel, diving deep into the metrics that matter when building and justifying a demo engineering team. Micah shares practical approaches to measuring the value of demo engineering, from simple time-saving calculations to sophisticated surveys that capture SE satisfaction and retention indicators. The conversation explores how to frame these metrics in terms that senior management cares about, moving beyond technical accomplishments to demonstrate real business impact.   Micah emphasizes the importance of thinking "top down" when building a demo engineering organization, focusing on what leadership values most: productivity, cost savings, and revenue growth. He shares real-world examples from his time at Salesforce's Q Branch, including how to measure the value of demo environments, how to identify unexpected patterns in the data (like deals where demo engineers get involved), and how cultivating relationships with SEs creates goodwill that extends beyond the numbers. The discussion also covers how demo engineering impacts go-to-market speed for new products and how to position the team as mission-critical support for field teams rather than just a technical function.

How to Grow Your Turkey Population by Trapping Predators with Jared Lurk | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 464 In this episode of the 100% Wild Podcast, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellsvik are joined by Jared Lurk and Cody West to dive into the essential, yet often overlooked, world of nest predator management. While high-level habitat work is crucial, many landowners are finding that high numbers of raccoons, opossums, and skunks are the primary roadblocks to a thriving wild turkey population. The crew discusses why trapping is a "lost art" that needs to return to the modern hunter's repertoire, sharing how they managed to trap over 140 predators on a single farm to save their food plots. We break down the practical "how-to" of running a long-line trap system, from selecting the right traps to choosing the best baits like tuna, and cat food to outsmart these nest predators. The conversation also covers the tactical shift from trapping to thermal hunting for coyotes, explaining why modern technology makes predator control more efficient than ever. Whether you're trying to protect your corn yield from coons or looking to hear more gobbles this spring, this episode provides the ultimate field guide for creating a greater ecosystem. 00:00:00 – Intro: Getting rid of nuisance critters  00:02:10 – Why trapping is a "lost art" for the modern generation  00:05:30 – Identifying the Problem: High predator counts and zero turkeys  00:07:15 – Baiting Strategy: Using tuna, cat food, and fish oil  00:09:00 – Protecting Food Plots: How coons destroy your corn yield  00:10:40 – The Long Line: Managing 50+ traps on a busy schedule  00:12:40 – Trapping Hotspots: Field edges, hollow trees, and water structures  00:14:45 – Thermal Hunting: Why it out-performs trapping for coyotes  00:16:35 – Dog-Proof Traps: Why they are the best tool for the job  00:32:15 – Skunk Problems: Dealing with the spray after the shot  00:35:10 – Tick Myth-Busting: Do opossums actually eat more ticks than turkeys?  00:40:30 – Snapping Turtle Management: Cleaning out the farm pond  Join the Rack Pack Facebook Group :/ n73gskjt7bfb2ngc   Get ahead of your Game with DeerCast available on iOS and Android devices App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deerc...

The episode touches on key themes such as the necessity of loving the process over the mere performance and the invaluable life skills acquired through dance training. Gutierrez and Robbins further discuss the challenges of instructing in contemporary times, noting the significance of supporting both students and parents in understanding the demands and rewards of the performing arts.Key Takeaways:Emphasizing tradition and discipline in dance education helps build character and life skills in students.Success in dance and life requires loving the process, not just the performance.Identifying 'stars' involves recognizing students who show eagerness, respect, and a capacity to internalize lessons.The arts provide invaluable experiences for dealing with rejection and persistence, crucial for life's challenges.Engaging parents in the process can enhance children's success and understanding in performing arts education.Notable Quotes:"I love dance, but I don't love to dance. And that's something I've realized is okay for me.""Our students need to learn the joy in the everyday doing of the thing, not just the performance.""The honor of ballet tradition offers something our children really benefit from in today's casual culture.""Students who show up eager to learn and respectfully interact are often those who succeed, in dance and in life.""Parents can play a vital part by resisting the urge to shield their kids from disappointment and instead coach them through it."Connect with Robin Snyder:WebsiteInstagramFacebookConnect with Rudy Mawer:LinkedInInstagramFacebookTwitter

Dr. Aafrin Pettiwala from UCSF joins us on OsteoBites to discuss her OutSmarting Osteosarcoma funded work on identifying mechanisms of chemoresistance in metastatic osteosarcoma using molecular barcoding.The presentation covers how intratumoral heterogeneity drives chemoresistance and metastasis in osteosarcoma by using lineage tracing (CaTCH) and patient-derived xenograft models. She has identified resistant and metastatic cell subpopulations and their molecular vulnerabilities, and further research seeks to uncover new therapeutic targets to improve treatment outcomes for metastatic osteosarcoma patients.Dr. Pettiwala earned her PhD in Cancer Biology from Institut Curie in Paris, France, where she studied therapeutic resistance and phenotypic plasticity in brain tumors. Her doctoral work focused on uncovering the molecular mechanisms that allow cancer cells to adapt and evade treatment. Currently, Aafrin is a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of Dr. Alejandro Sweet-Cordero at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Her research centers on understanding chemotherapy resistance in metastatic osteosarcoma, with an emphasis on clonal dynamics, tumor evolution, and lineage tracing using high-throughput barcoding technologies.

Every human being has tender places in their nervous system.Places where life feels a little sharper.A little louder.A little harder to navigate.Sometimes it's a time of day.Sometimes it's chaos or clutter.Sometimes it's certain conversations that require more space and calm.I call these raw spots.And one of the quiet, beautiful privileges of loving someone is this:Over time, you begin to learn where those raw spots are.Not so you can avoid life.Not so you can walk on eggshells.But so that, when possible, you can soften the edges of the world for each other.Because the truth is: life will already bring enough friction, enough stress, enough chaos.A loving relationship is not meant to add more pain to the pile.It's meant to make the journey a little more bearable.In this week's episode, we talk about Protecting Each Other's Raw Spots, and why recognizing these sensitive places in ourselves and the people we love can completely change how we show up in relationships.Episode timestamps:00:02 — Why knowing each other's raw spots matters01:06 — When life feels chaotic and beautiful at the same time02:19 — What “raw spots” actually are02:32 — My wife's raw spot: visual clutter and overwhelm06:16 — Another example: slow mornings and protecting space08:47 — My own raw spot (and how we learned to protect it)11:33 — Identifying patterns: time, topics, and situations14:29 — Why protecting each other's raw spots strengthens relationshipsBecause in the end, this is what loving someone really means:Not removing all difficulty from life.But learning how to hold each other a little more gently as we walk through it.

“Most of the couples that I spoke with wanted to distance themselves from old-school gender norms, and yet very few were able to achieve balance when it came to the division of this mental work.”— Dr. Allison DamingerIf you've ever lain awake mentally running through tomorrow's logistics while your partner sleeps soundly beside you, this episode is for you. Dr. Allison Daminger, sociologist and author of What's on Her Mind?, has spent nearly a decade studying something most families feel but few can name: the invisible cognitive labor that keeps a household running. It's not the cooking or the carpooling, it's the anticipating, the researching, the deciding, and the endless following up. In this conversation, Dr. Daminger unpacks why this mental work falls so disproportionately on women—even in couples who are genuinely trying for something more equal, what makes it so stubbornly hard to redistribute, and what it would actually take, in our homes and in our culture, to change it.Website: allisondaminger.com · Substack: The Daminger DispatchWhat Is Mental Workload?Dr. Daminger describes mental workload as “project management for the household” — a set of cognitive processes geared toward figuring out what a family needs and ensuring those needs get fulfilled. It breaks down into four key steps:* Anticipation — scanning ahead for upcoming needs, problems, or opportunities* Identifying options — brainstorming or researching possible solutions* Decision-making — choosing the best course of action for the family* Monitoring — following up to make sure the solution actually workedUnlike physical housework, this labor is largely invisible, often not recognized as “work” even by the person doing it.“This is a set of mental processes that are geared toward figuring out what your family needs, what you owe to other people, and then how to ensure that those needs and obligations get fulfilled.”— Dr. Allison DamingerKey Research FindingsThe Gender Gap Is StarkIn Dr. Daminger's study of different-gender couples, 4 out of 5 were “woman-led,” meaning she was effectively the “cognitive laborer in chief.” While couples were closer to 50-50 on physical housework (cooking, cleaning, driving), the mental work remained deeply unequal.Earning More Doesn't Level the Playing Field, Not for WomenWhen men earned more or worked more hours, they almost always did less cognitive labor. But the same did not hold true in reverse: women who were the primary earners still shouldered a disproportionate share of mental work. The breadwinner pass applied to men, not women.“In cases where she was doing more hours or earning more money, a lot of the time she was still doing more of the cognitive labor.”— Dr. Allison DamingerWhy Does This Persist?Accountability StructuresOne of Dr. Daminger's core explanations is “accountability structures,” which is the fact that men and women are held responsible for different outcomes. Men feel guilt around financial failure; women feel guilt when household or parenting management slips. This asymmetry shapes who pays attention and who steps in.“If the kid comes to school missing their clarinet on band day, or guests come over and there's dog hair on the floor, these are outcomes that usually are going to be blamed on women.”— Dr. Allison DamingerThe Stickiness ProblemCognitive labor is deeply embedded in knowledge, relationships, and practice, making it hard to hand off. A partner who has attended every pediatrician appointment holds context the other doesn't have. Many women conclude it's simply easier to keep doing it than to train someone else. This keeps the division of labor frozen even when both partners want change.“You can teach someone to change a diaper pretty quickly. But a lot of cognitive work is embedded in knowledge and relationships that are hard to just hand over.”— Dr. Allison DamingerWhat Balanced Couples Do Differently“If you can lead from the place of: I'm suffering, this is not working for me, that will activate a form of compassion that is harder to access when it's framed as criticism.”— Dr. Allison DamingerTransfer Ownership, Not Just TasksThe “just tell me what to do” dynamic is a common trap. If she's still the one generating the list, she still owns the domain. Dr. Daminger's advice: transfer full vertical ownership of a category, not just execution of individual tasks.“All things laundry, that's now you. Not just one piece, but making sure there's detergent, making sure the kids have clean clothes on time, making sure the washer and dryer are functioning. If you can give someone up-and-down vertical ownership of the whole project, that's often more effective than one-off task delegations.”— Dr. Allison DamingerStart Small and Give It Time• Pick lower-stakes domains first — tasks you won't catastrophize if done differently• Set a grace period (e.g., two weeks) before evaluating — transitions are inherently bumpy• Avoid overhauling everything at once; there will be mistakes as skills are built• Resist the urge to take back a task the moment it's done differently than you wouldKey TakeawayThe skills that shape who does cognitive labor are learned, not innate. Calling it a “personality difference” lets the pattern off the hook. Dr. Daminger's research suggests that recognizing the work, naming it, and deliberately redistributing ownership (not just tasks) is how couples begin to change. The structure matters too: fewer systemic barriers mean fewer forced tradeoffs, and a more level playing field at home.Listen to the full episode to hear what she suggests for more broad, societal level changes that could help this imbalance of cognitive load.A Mind of Her OwnHosted by Dr. Jennifer Reid, MDBoard-certified psychiatrist, author of Guilt Free: Reclaiming Your Life From Unreasonable Expectations, and award-winning medical educatorjenniferreidmd.com | A Mind of Her Own on Substack@jenreidmd on Instagram and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a ShrinkSeeking a mental health provider?

Welcome back to the Rhythms For Life podcast! In this episode, Gabe and Rebekah sit down with their longtime friend, bestselling author, and Founder/Visionary of Gather. With a friendship spanning nearly 15 years, they dive into a timely conversation about where the church is headed and the radical movements of God happening right now. This conversation explores the heart of Jennie's newest book, The Lie You Don't Know You Believe, which addresses the specific spiritual attacks of our day and the freedom found on the other side of truth. From witnessing campus revivals to hearing raw stories of transformation through baptism, Jennie shares her perspective on why this so-called “dark” generation is actually more desperate and open to the Gospel than ever before. In this episode, you'll hear: The Power of Desperation: Why spiritual hunger is the essential ingredient for the unique outpourings of the Holy Spirit we are seeing today. A Pre-Christian Generation: How Gen Z is shifting from "post-church" to "pre-Christian," encountering the story of Jesus for the very first time without the baggage of deconstruction. From Darkness to Light: Radical stories of grace, including the baptisms of former atheists, practitioners of witchcraft, and those coming out of the juvenile justice system. Manifestations of the Spirit: Jennie's personal reflections on the physical manifestations of God's nearness and the theological wrestling that comes with witnessing revival. Identifying the Lie: How to recognize the "darkness pouring in" and how the simple, beautiful story of Jesus remains the answer to the collapse of everything around us.

"Having the freedom to decide this is what I choose to do now or another time, that to me is that time-rich feeling." In this episode, Heather and Christine Landis gently (and sometimes unapologetically) challenge the way we think about productivity, responsibility, and the stories we tell ourselves about success. Together, they unpack the invisible labor so many women carry, the exhaustion of decision fatigue, and the cultural conditioning that convinces us we must do everything ourselves to be "good" partners, mothers, leaders, or humans. This isn't a conversation about outsourcing tasks for the sake of efficiency; it's about buying back your time so you can reclaim your energy, your joy, and your capacity to live intentionally rather than by default. Christine invites us to reimagine what it means to be "time rich," to stop apologizing for spaciousness, and to consciously plan for joy as a foundational part of an aligned life. What to listen for: ✨ Understanding house management, and giving ourselves permission to outsource ✨ Identifying the invisible load you carry and the decision fatigue that comes with it ✨ Becoming "time rich" by letting go of the need to do everything yourself "It's not about delegating laundry or delegating meal prep. It's about reclaiming your fucking life and reclaiming how you want to feel." ✨ If we want men to step up, we as women need to better value our own time ✨ Giving yourself more capacity with that time, not doing more of something else ✨ The importance of not judging or defending the spaciousness you bought back "Planning for joy is really important. You can't be reactionary. You have to put that thought out there and look ahead into your week, your month. It doesn't have to be this big five-year plan, but even just protecting your time on a doable, regular basis." ✨ Focusing on the life you want rather than living by default ✨ Planning for your joy instead of being reactive to what's coming at you ✨ Valuing yourself and your time differently, and the challenges that come with it About Christine Landis: Christine Landis is the founder of Peacock Parent and the creator of Proxy, a text-based thinking partner for home life.  A former fintech CEO who inherited and grew her family's company before selling it, Christine thought retirement would bring freedom — but instead it clarified her mission. She realized that time, not money, is the real measure of success. Today, she uses her decades of operational experience to help high-achieving families reduce the mental load, delegate with confidence, and buy back time for the moments that matter most.

If you've been putting in the work to heal your anxious attachment but still feel like you're treading water, this episode is for you. In today's episode, I'm sharing what I believe are the three core pillars of healing anxious attachment — and why the sequencing of that work matters just as much as the work itself.Whether you're just starting out or have been on this journey for a while, having a clear roadmap can be genuinely grounding. Lack of effort is rarely the problem for anxiously attached people — it's about making sure that energy is directed where it will have the greatest impact.In this episode, I cover:Why the mindset you bring to this work is the real foundation — and how approaching healing from a place of shame will undermine everything elseUnderstanding your nervous system and building the capacity to self-regulate (hint: it's about much more than crisis management)Identifying and shifting the negative core beliefs and core wounds that shape your relationships — and why real self-worth is built through doing, not just affirmationsCommunication skills, boundary-setting, and voicing your needs — and why starting here without the previous two pillars often falls flatThe common pitfall that keeps so many people stuck, and what to focus on instead

Recurring revenue sounds smart. Memberships, prepaid packages, and gift cards can create a surge in cash flow for med spas — but without proper financial tracking, they can distort your profit margins, inflate revenue perception, and create operational risk.  Listen here to learn how aesthetic practices can misinterpret cash injections as true growth — and what to track instead.  If you're operating 1–2 locations and planning to scale, this conversation about healthy cash flow management for your aesthetics practice is critical.  Are Gift Cards Creating False Revenue Expectations for Your Practice?  Whether you run a med spa or a similar practice, you'll learn why simply chasing upfront cash isn't always the ticket to success—and how these models can create a false sense of profitability, throw off your capacity planning, and even compromise your ability to deliver services in the future. I'm revealing how a CFO tracks different income streams, forecasts cash flow, and helps you build sustainable financial habits, so you don't end up borrowing from your future business.  Prepaid revenue can:  Inflate top-line sales  Hide future labor costs  Distort margins  Create scheduling unpredictability  Mask capacity constraints  "The issue with this, however, is when not done well or not done with this in mind, you're putting yourself at risk for a very distorted view of your sales, of your numbers, and not really making sound business decisions based on good data." - Shannon Weinstein  To cut to the chase, cash in the bank does not equal earned revenue.  Cash Injection vs. Sustainable Growth: Making Better Business Decisions  We're seeing a huge trend in med spas and wellness practices: everyone's jumping on the recurring revenue train with memberships, subscriptions, gift cards, and prepaid packages. It sounds great on the surface—more cash in the bank, better sales numbers, right? But here are a few things you'll learn in this episode that might change your mind:  Why gift card revenue is a future liability, not pure profit  How prepaid packages distort med spa profit margins  Why capacity utilization matters more than cash balance  How to segment revenue categories properly in QuickBooks  Why you should reconsider commission structures on prepaid sales  How memberships affect enterprise value and predictability  Protecting Your Aesthetics Practice from Recurring Revenue Traps and Misleading Data  Collecting money upfront (especially around holidays with gift cards) can feel like winning. Who doesn't love a surge in revenue and a healthy bank balance? The catch is, those numbers don't always paint an honest picture. You might be thinking your marketing is working wonders, but really, your sales are getting propped up by gift card purchases. When it comes time to deliver the actual services, your costs catch up—and you don't have new income to cover them.  If your med spa offers memberships, gift cards, or prepaid packages:  Segment revenue by category (services, retail, memberships, gift cards, prepaid packages)  Track redemption timing based on historical data  Build a 6-week cash flow forecast including expected redemptions  Measure revenue per provider and revenue per square foot  Monitor capacity utilization instead of celebrating temporary cash spikes  Evaluate LTV to CAC separately from prepaid sales  I compare it to the GLP-1 weight loss trend: quick results, but they don't last unless your habits are solid. The same goes for business cash injections. If you don't have the right financial habits, you get a false sense of achievement that fades fast.  Memberships and Prepaid Packages: Boost or Bust for Your Med Spa?  If your monthly numbers look amazing, but you're just selling future services, don't rush to expand or boost sales goals. Before expanding, make sure your growth is real by evaluating the following:  Are you mistaking cash injections for sustainable demand?  Is capacity actually full — or artificially inflated?  Are membership liabilities masking thin operating margins?  Buyers and lenders look for predictable earned revenue — not volatile cash surges.  Essential Metrics for Med Spas: Beyond Cash in the Bank  If you're unsure whether your med spa's cash flow is sustainable — or distorted — start with the Financial Scaling Playbook for Aesthetics.

Dyslexia isn't just a reading problem—it's a whole brain vibe! In our chat today, we dive into some eye-opening insights with Russell Van Broecklin, a dyslexia researcher who's got the lowdown on how dyslexia works and why it's not as straightforward as folks think. He lays down the truth that while dyslexics might read and write slower, their brains are firing on all cylinders when it comes to thinking. So, if you've got a kiddo who's struggling, don't sweat it! Russell shares some killer strategies for helping them thrive academically, even if traditional methods have made them feel like they're swimming upstream. Join us as we unravel the myths and equip ourselves with some solid tools to help our little learners soar! Dyslexia is often misunderstood as a simple reading issue, but let me tell you, it's way more complex than that. Russell Van Broecklin, our guest on the podcast, dives deep into the nuances of dyslexia, sharing his own journey and expertise as a New York State funded dyslexia researcher. He reveals that while dyslexics might read and write slower than their peers, they often think and process information faster, which flips the script on how we perceive learning difficulties. Throughout our conversation, Russell emphasizes the importance of recognizing the unique cognitive strengths dyslexics possess, which can lead to incredible academic and personal success when properly supported.

On this solo episode, Travis Chappell continues his series on “25 Questions to Live a Better Life,” drawing from years of door-to-door sales, entrepreneurship, and podcasting to unpack the exact prompts he uses to rethink beliefs, handle hard seasons, and choose better long-term outcomes. He walks through questions 5–10 of his list, mixing personal stories, mental models, and thought experiments you can steal to upgrade your thinking and your life. On this episode we talk about: Why “When was the last time I changed my mind about a belief?” reveals whether you're actually growing Using “This sucks, but what's the alternative?” to push through necessary hard things How to map out “What is the worst case scenario and is it really that bad?” so fear stops running the show The power of asking “Why am I feeling this emotion?” to shift from reactive to intentional “Who do I know that has the results I want?” and “What are our cigarettes?” as long-term filters for your environment and worldview Top 3 Takeaways If you've never changed your mind about a core belief, it likely means you've never truly examined where your values came from or whether they're actually yours. Most “worst case scenarios” are far less catastrophic than we imagine, and clearly defining them makes it easier to take the risks required for a better life. Identifying people who already have the results you want—and humbly modeling what works for them—is one of the fastest ways to accelerate your own progress. Notable Quotes “If all of your core beliefs were passed down to you and you can't articulate why you believe them, odds are they're not your beliefs.” “This sucks, but what's the alternative?” “What are our cigarettes—what do we view as normal now that people will vilify in 200 years?” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/traviscchappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com  Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency. Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform. Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Grant Mullen shares his journey from being an anesthetist to a physician specializing in mental health and spirituality.

Dr. Mullen emphasizes the significance of thought control, the role of emotional baggage, and the necessity of forgiveness and repentance in the healing process. He provides practical tools for individuals struggling with mental health issues, including the importance of daily quiet time with God and the power of prayer. The conversation highlights the need for compassion and understanding in addressing mental health challenges, as well as the transformative potential of faith in the healing journey.  

Show Notes: Nir Eyal, author of Hooked and Indistractable, talks about his new book Beyond Belief. Nir explains the inspiration for writing the book and the book's purpose: to help people process information and put it into practice. Nir shares his motivation for writing the book, focusing on the psychology of motivation and the importance of perseverance and adaptability. He talks about the missing component in moving from belief to action, and discusses the concept of motivation as a triangle, emphasizing the role of belief in sustaining motivation.  Beliefs Affecting Perception The conversation turns to stories from the book about beliefs affecting perception, such as the Toyota vs. GM prism and the expensive vs. cheap glass of wine experiments that proved the participants actually believed to be truths based on the information received over the facts. Nir explains how beliefs can literally change what we see, citing examples like people on diets seeing food as larger and people with a fear of heights perceiving distances as further. He discusses how brands and luxury goods affect perception. Nir emphasizes that our beliefs shape what we see, feel, and do, and that understanding this can help us improve our lives. Limiting vs Liberating Beliefs When asked how to identify and change limiting beliefs, Nir explains that beliefs are tools, not truths, and that understanding this can help us improve our lives. Applying this approach to relationships to illustrate how it works, he shares a personal story about a conflict with his mother and how he used the Work of Byron Katie to question his beliefs. Nir outlines the four questions from "The Work" that help identify and change limiting beliefs: Is it true? Is it absolutely true? Who am I when I hold this belief? Who would I be without this belief? Magical Thinking vs Mental Contrasting Nir talks about how to apply the belief inventory to other areas of life, such as business and company culture. He explains that beliefs are the operating system of our minds and that understanding this can help us improve our relationships and business practices. He discusses the concept of mental contrasting, which involves visualizing both the desired outcome and the obstacles to achieving it. Nir emphasizes that magical thinking, such as positive thinking without action, can be harmful and that mental contrasting is a more effective approach. Prayer for the Unfaithful On the chapter about prayer in the book, Nir explains that prayer has benefits even without faith, citing a study where people who prayed, even without faith, had better pain tolerance. He shares his experience of interviewing five faith leaders to learn how to pray when uncertain about God. Nir discusses the benefits of prayer, such as longer life, more life satisfaction, and less depression, and how he has incorporated prayer into his life. Setting Failure Goals When questioned about the concept of failure goals, Nir explains that failure goals involve setting goals for how many times you try, rather than focusing solely on success. He discusses the importance of celebrating the process and the journey, rather than just the outcome. Discipline in Practice Nir shares that he has incorporated prayer and improved his relationships through new practices. He discusses the concept of daily mantras, such as "we are all working with the tools we have" and "love is measured by the benefit of the doubt," to help shed limiting beliefs. Nir emphasizes the importance of these practices in improving his psychological well-being and relationships.

So often we move through life repeating the same emotional loops without realizing the deeper belief driving them. In this meditation, I invite you to slow down, breathe, and gently uncover the belief connected to a pattern in your life that may be rooted in feeling unworthy.Together, we enter a calming visualization where you create a safe inner space, clarify a true desire that belongs fully to you, and symbolically plant that intention so it can grow. From there, I guide you through releasing the belief or pattern blocking that desire so you can return feeling lighter, more aligned, and more connected to your worth. If this meditation resonates with you, I'd also love to invite our Lotus Rising community to join me in Sedona on September 12th for Lotus Rising Live.
