Most people don't fail at nutrition because they lack discipline.They fail because they were taught to chase extremes instead of building a life they actually enjoy living.This episode challenges the “New Year, New You” mindset and explores what sustainable health truly looks like, without guilt, shame, or the need to start over every few months.Welcome to the Happy, Healthy, Strong Podcast.Hosted by Adam Lane, this show explores what it really takes to live a healthier, stronger, and more fulfilling life, through smarter nutrition, intentional movement, mindset, and habits that actually last.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Adam sits down with KRYSTAL BOLDUC of Life Nutrition to unpack why so many nutrition plans fail and what works instead.Krystal shares her personal journey of breaking the vicious diet cycle, the reasoning behind rebranding her company from Grow or Die to Life Nutrition, and why health isn't just about food.

The Bible warns us that from the moment we are saved, we are hunted. In this sermon, Pastor Joe Rice preaches on Proverbs 6:5 and Proverbs 22:3, showing how Satan's hunters seek to destroy destinies, discourage new converts, and derail believers. From false prophets to debt, distractions, and even well-meaning family, the enemy uses many hunters. Learn how to stay aware, protect your spiritual life, and move from merely surviving to thriving.This message is a wake-up call for every believer: don't be ignorant, don't wander on the edges—stay in the middle of God's will, outlast the attacks, and live in the power of Christ's resurrection.https://TakingTheLandPodcast.comSUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM FOR MORE:• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3/month on Supercast⁠: https://taking-the-land.supercast.com/⁠• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3.99/month on Spotify⁠: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taking-the-land/subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• ⁠Subscribe for only $4.99/month on Apple Podcasts⁠: https://apple.co/3vy1s5b⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠00:00 Missionary Work and Heritage00:28 Honoring Missionaries and Their Sacrifices03:17 The Value of New Converts06:45 Surviving Your Many Hunters09:44 Understanding the Nature of Being Hunted12:32 The Consequences of Ignorance15:45 Satan's Early and Persistent Attacks18:24 The Role of the Church Community21:25 Warnings and Lessons from Experience27:00 The Deceptive Forces in Destiny29:45 Identifying and Overcoming Hunters of Destiny32:31 The Role of Family and Friends in Our Journey38:05 Surviving and Thriving Amidst Challenges43:47 Encouragement and Self-Strengthening52:09 The Power of Resurrection and PerseveranceShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

In this week's “Best Of” episode, we present two stories of people having to navigate a new world.Part 1: Sean Bearden has never been interested in education, but when he's incarcerated at the age of 19, he finds a passion for physics. Part 2: When Victoria Manning decides to get a cochlear implant, she fears losing her identity as a deaf person. Sean Bearden is a Ph. D. candidate in Physics at UC San Diego, researching the application and development of memcomputing systems, a novel computing paradigm. Identifying as a nontraditional student, Sean went from dropping out of high school to receiving the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship and Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship. To alleviate the stress that is inevitably coupled with graduate research, he enjoys training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at the P5 Academy in San Diego. Visit seanbearden.com to learn more. Deaf from the age of four Victoria was raised in a family who instilled a high value on educational achievement and a strong sense of social justice. Victoria gained a bachelor degree in New Zealand (without the support of sign language interpreters) followed by a Masters degree in the United States before returning to New Zealand in the late 1990's. Victoria's deaf identity began in her close relationship with her older deaf brother, both raised orally, and later flourished in the New Zealand Deaf community and the culture-affirming experience of attending a Deaf university (Gallaudet) in the United States. Victoria's first career was in psychology but she soon gravitated to human rights/disability rights work and moved into a series of strategic and policy roles across central government and NGOs. Victoria's life highlights include being the key government advisor on the development of the New Zealand Sign Language Act 2006; representing New Zealand disabled people's voices at the United Nations in Geneva in 2014; and receiving a Queen's Service Award for her services to the deaf and disabled communities in 2015. Most significantly, she appreciates the privileges and joys that come with being a wife and mother of two.

Merry Christmas from Media Gratiae. In this special episode, Jordan and John conclude their series on meditating on the incarnation of Jesus. They explore what it means that Christ took on our flesh without sin, how the incarnation shapes our reconciliation with the Father, and much more. Of particular focus is a practical application that has been especially meaningful to Jordan: how the incarnation of Jesus equips us to wage war against and mortify our own sin. Christ is the only human to fully experience the weight of temptation, yet He never yielded. He endured to the very end, glorifying the Father fully. We pray that this episode, along with the linked Scriptural meditations and the series as a whole, nourishes your soul this Christmas season and strengthens you in the year to come 25 Meditations on the Incarnation: https://shop.mediagratiae.org/pages/advent-meditations Good Tiding of Great Joy by Charles Spurgeon https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/devotionalsdaily-readings/good-tidings-of-great-joy/ Jordan recommends this Christmas Devotional: https://grace-ebooks.com/library/J.

As this year comes to a close, I wanted to slow things down and really look at how my word for 2025 actually showed up in my life. I've shared before that I no longer set New Year's resolutions. Instead, I choose a word that helps ground me in how I want to show up and what I want to experience. This year, that word was co-create. As someone who has always relied on planning, structure, and execution, this word challenged me to loosen my grip and trust timing instead of forcing outcomes. It became a way to check myself when things felt rushed, heavy, or resistant, and to ask whether I was truly aligned or just trying to muscle my way through. One of the clearest examples of this showed up around selling my house. Early in the year, I pushed forward because it seemed logical, but everything felt off. There was resistance, frustration, and a sense that nothing was flowing. When I stepped back and let go of the timeline, things shifted. Later in the year, when it felt right, the process unfolded easily. The right realtor, better communication, aligned decisions, and even an offer before the house officially hit the market. The contrast between those two experiences taught me more than any checklist ever could. This Wise Walk is an invitation to reflect on how your own word supported you, redirected you, or surprised you this year, and to notice the difference between moments that felt forced and moments that felt fully aligned. Did you choose a word for the year that helped ground or center you in how you wanted to show up for yourself? How did that word show up in your life throughout the year? In moments when you felt off track, did your word help redirect or re-center you in any way? What awareness did you gain by setting and living with a word for the year in 2025? Early in the year, were there times when the word didn't feel fully embodied or integrated yet? Can you share an example of a moment when you consciously returned to your word to reground yourself? Can you share an experience where you fully embodied your word for the year? What did that aligned experience feel like in your body or emotions? When you compare moments that felt misaligned with those that felt aligned, what differences do you notice? How did alignment or misalignment affect how you showed up for yourself or for others? I hope your word for the year brought meaning into your life, especially during moments that felt challenging. I also hope you can look back on this past year with appreciation for what it offered you. I'll be sharing my word for 2026 soon, so be sure to tune in. And if you'd like, send me an email or a DM and let me know how your word shaped you this year. I'm wishing you and yours a very happy holiday, and I'll see you next Thursday for another Wise Walk. In this episode: [04:09] As I reflect back on how co-create showed up for me in delightful ways, I realized it was a really great word for me.  [05:05] I want to trust the process that God or the Universe has a plan for us. Co-creation helped me stay present and be more patient. [06:16] I don't want to miss the lessons in the experience by rushing to achieve something. Creating openness might show me that there's something better out there. [08:00] When I have that energy for co-creation, magical things can be revealed.  [09:14] Identifying resistance helps us notice obstacles that come up. A great example of this was when I was selling my house and the realtor wasn't a great fit. [10:02] I'm going to co-create from a place of trust not a place of forcing it. [11:50] The second time I listed my house, everything flowed. [13:32] The word co-create helped me take a step back, reevaluate, and see if I needed to be more open to create with divine timing. [15:12] Another cool way that co-create showed up for me was taking a cross-country trip with my dogs and showing up at my aunt's house. I had no way of knowing this was going to happen. She didn't even have the ranch yet. [15:45] I now embody the trust of co-creation. I love that I'm leaning more into it. [16:53] I hope you reflect on how your word helps you bring out the best qualities in yourself and in your life. [17:53] I'm also truly grateful for co-creating with you.

Introduction Are you walking through a hard season and wondering where God is in it? If you're feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or confused by what God is allowing, this episode is for you. In today's episode, we explore four people from the Bible who endured deep trials—and what their responses reveal about how God works in difficult seasons. You'll learn four powerful questions you can ask yourself when life feels heavy, questions that can shift your perspective, strengthen your faith, and bring clarity even when answers feel far away. This episode is especially for Christian women navigating hardship, whether that's health struggles, emotional exhaustion, uncertainty, or a season that simply doesn't make sense yet. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why hardship doesn't mean God has abandoned you How your response to trials can change your future Biblical examples of faith during suffering Four life-changing questions to ask God in difficult seasons How God often provides before we even notice Biblical Lessons on Trials, Faith, and God's Provision 1. The Israelites in the Wilderness: Recognizing God's Provision The Israelites experienced miracles—freedom from Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea—yet still found themselves wandering in the wilderness. Their story reminds us that complaining and unbelief can blind us to God's daily provision. God provided manna every day, even while they grumbled. Life-Changing Question #1: What is the “manna” God has already placed in your life that you may be overlooking? God often supplies what we need before we recognize it. 2. Hagar: Seeing the Provision That Was Always There Hagar's story is one of pain, rejection, and survival. Alone in the wilderness with her son, she believed death was inevitable—until God opened her eyes to a well of water that had been there all along. Life-Changing Question #2: What provision or answer might God be placing right in front of you that you can't see yet? Distraction, grief, trauma, and exhaustion can keep us from noticing God's help. 3. Paul in Prison: Using Hard Seasons for God's Glory Paul endured imprisonment, beatings, and hardship—yet instead of giving up, he used his suffering to encourage others. Some of the most impactful books of the New Testament were written while he was in chains. Life-Changing Question #3: How can God use this hard season for His glory? God doesn't waste suffering when we remain willing. 4. Joseph: Serving Faithfully While Waiting Joseph's story reminds us that delay is not denial. Sold into slavery, falsely accused, and imprisoned, Joseph continued to serve with integrity. His willingness to encourage others—even while waiting for his own breakthrough—ultimately led to freedom and fulfillment. Life-Changing Question #4: Who is the “cupbearer” in your life that God is calling you to serve right now? Sometimes our breakthrough comes through serving others faithfully. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – Four biblical figures who endured trials 01:00 – The Israelites and the danger of grumbling 03:20 – Identifying the “manna” in your life 04:20 – Hagar's wilderness story and unseen provision 06:44 – God opening our eyes to what's already there 09:10 – Paul's imprisonment and faithful endurance 11:06 – Using hardship for God's glory 11:36 – Joseph's long road from dream to fulfillment 13:58 – Serving others while waiting for breakthrough 16:53 – Faith-filled next steps for health and clarity Key Takeaways God provides even when we're struggling to trust Him Hard seasons often reveal what needs to shift in our hearts Faithfulness in suffering matters more than circumstances Serving others can be the doorway to your breakthrough God's timing is purposeful, even when it's painful Feeling Stuck in Your Health or Life Right Now? If you're in a season where things feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming—especially when it comes to your health—you don't have to figure it out alone. Work With Me I offer one-time Health Clarity Sessions—faith-fueled conversations focused on discernment, peace, and wise next steps, not diagnosis or protocols.

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens sits down with Dr. Matt Townsend for a powerful, reflective conversation on emotional resilience, leadership maturity, and what high performers must leave behind to move forward. As the pace of business accelerates and uncertainty continues to rise, John and Matt unpack why most leaders feel overwhelmed—not because they lack ability, but because they're carrying outdated thoughts, unhealthy emotions, and destructive habits into the future. This episode is a deep dive into growth through subtraction: letting go of what no longer serves you so you can step into clarity, confidence, and CEO-level leadership. If you're heading into a new season of business or life and feeling stuck, this conversation will help you reset, refocus, and lead with intention. Key Topics Covered Why Everything Feels Faster (and Heavier) The acceleration of business, information, and expectations How "snacking culture" and constant noise erode focus and clarity Why overwhelm is often a signal—not a failure Leaving Behind Unhelpful Thoughts Common limiting beliefs leaders carry into every year: "I have to do it all myself" "My team can't perform" "I'm not good enough for this market" Why you can't solve problems at the same level of thinking that created them Identifying the thoughts you're most embarrassed to admit—and why those matter most Emotions, Energy, and Leadership Impact How unresolved emotions leak into tone, body language, and presence Why untransformed pain always gets transmitted to others Understanding the "second arrow": how emotional reactions cause more damage than the event itself Breaking the Loop: Thoughts → Feelings → Actions How feelings make thoughts permanent Why repeated emotional associations create stuck patterns Learning to separate events from identity and meaning The Observer Mindset The difference between being your thoughts vs. observing them Why awareness creates power and choice How emotional resiliency starts with noticing—not forcing—change Habits, Dopamine, and Self-Sabotage Cheap dopamine vs. earned dopamine How modern habits (phones, news, scrolling) quietly drain courage Why habits persist until you sit with their true cost Using mindfulness to reprioritize and dissolve unhealthy patterns Values as the Foundation for Growth Why goals without values don't stick Defining values as how you do the work—not just what you want A powerful exercise: writing what you want people to say about you on your 90th birthday Character Strengths & Sustainable Confidence Why knowing your strengths changes how you show up as a leader Using strengths as superpowers—not trying to "fix" weaknesses How self-awareness fuels confidence, resilience, and clarity Leadership Is Not a Solo Sport Why growth rarely happens in isolation The importance of mirrors, mentors, masterminds, and accountability How collaboration accelerates awareness and shortens the learning curve Resources & Mentions AuthenticHappiness.org – VIA Character Strengths Assessment Unwinding Anxiety by Judson Brewer Deep Work by Cal Newport Concepts from emotional resiliency, mindfulness, and cognitive diffusion John Kitchens Executive Coaching → https://johnkitchens.coach Final Takeaway You don't move forward by adding more—you move forward by letting go. When leaders release unhelpful thoughts, unresolved emotions, and unhealthy habits, they reclaim energy, clarity, and agency. True growth doesn't come from forcing change, but from awareness, values-driven action, and choosing to lead from your highest self—not your survival instincts. Happy Holidays everyone.

As the year comes to a close, I wanted to record something a little different for this final episode of Online Store Success. This isn't a strategy episode. It's a pause. A chance to slow down, reflect on the year that's been, and look ahead with a bit more clarity and intention before everything ramps up again. If this year stretched you emotionally, mentally, or financially, you're not alone. It's been a big year for many e-commerce founders, and in this episode I invite you to gently reflect on what actually worked, what felt heavy, and how you want your business and life to feel in the year ahead. This episode isn't about setting revenue targets or pushing harder. It's about closing the year intentionally and creating space for a more aligned next chapter. In this episode, I talk about: • Why this year felt heavier than usual for many small business owners • How to reflect on what worked without judgement • Identifying what drained your energy, time, or cash flow • Shifting focus from revenue goals to how you want your business to feel • What I'm seeing work right now inside my mastermind clients' businesses • Why simplifying your product range and focusing on hero products matters • Creating a more easeful, sustainable sales and marketing engine • Protecting your energy through better systems, support, and operations A gentle reflection as you listen: As you listen, I invite you to sit with these questions: • What actually worked for you this year? • What felt heavy or misaligned? • How do you want your business and life to feel next year? There's no pressure to have perfect answers. This episode is simply about noticing, acknowledging, and closing the year with intention.

I sat down with author, speaker, and lawyer Justin Whitmel Earley and walked away reminded that discipline isn't just about doing more—it's about becoming more grounded. He shared how relentless ambition and life as a driven attorney led to panic attacks and burnout, and how he rebuilt through faith and daily spiritual rhythms. The smallest, most intentional habits shape my mind, my peace, and my purpose. Faith isn't just what I claim—it's what I practice every day.CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction02:25 The Impact of Books and Personal Growth07:42 The Journey to Law and Mental Collapse12:55 Spiritual Habits and Life Changes23:40 Identity and Vocation34:56 The Gospel's Core Message38:30 Identifying and Overcoming False Idols43:02 The Role of the Body in Spirituality48:01 The Call to Serve Others55:20 The Journey of Intentional Fatherhood01:06:55 The Dual Nature of Strength01:13:04 The Role of Sabbath in Modern Life01:31:26 The Cornerstone of a Good Life01:36:47 Final Thoughts and ReflectionsJUSTIN WHITMEL EARLEYWebsite: https://www.justinwhitmelearley.com/Socials: @justinwhitmelearleyBooks: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Justin-Whitmel-Earley/author/B07P62QFW5?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=69ad8248-6298-4780-a33b-c900a2adfa62ORDER MY BOOK HERE:https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 20% off FOR LIFEhttps://bpn.team/memberIG: instagram.com/nickbarefitness/YT: youtube.com/@nickbarefitness

As the year winds down, I always find myself in reflection mode—looking back at the goals I set at the beginning of 2025, evaluating what went well, what didn't pan out, and most importantly, what I learned along the way that will make me better at goal-setting moving forward. And let me tell you, goal setting is one of my absolute favorite things to do. I love the process of dreaming big, planning strategically, and mapping out what's next for my life and business. But if I've learned anything over the years of setting and tracking goals, it's that how you set your goals (and how you track your progress throughout the year) matters just as much as the goals themselves. You can have ambitious, exciting goals, but without the right assessment process and tracking systems, you'll constantly feel like you're falling short even when you're making real progress. Or worse, you'll keep setting the same goals year after year without understanding why they're not working. So today, I want to help you assess where you are right now with total honesty and zero guilt. Whether you absolutely crushed your 2025 goals and exceeded your own expectations, or you're looking at your list feeling like you fell short in several areas, this episode will help you reflect constructively and set yourself up for even more success in 2026. In this episode, I'm sharing 6 practical ways to assess your current goal progress and set better, more effective, more aligned goals for the new year. These strategies will help you understand what worked, what didn't, and how to create goals that actually stick.   Here's What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to conduct an honest goal inventory without self-judgment Why celebrating progress matters more than perfect completion Identifying successful systems and habits that moved you forward Recognizing patterns and obstacles that consistently derailed progress The importance of revisiting your "why" before setting new goals How to make goals specific and measurable for better tracking Breaking big goals into small, consistent, achievable actions Adjusting goals when life circumstances or priorities change Separating self-worth from goal achievement outcomes Setting smarter goals based on lessons learned from previous years   Here's a glance at this episode: [02:01] Honest Goal Inventory: Taking stock of achievements, in-progress goals, and what didn't happen (without self-criticism). [04:25] Progress Over Perfection: Why consistent effort and partial completion deserve celebration and recognition [08:02] Revisiting Your Why: Evaluating whether last year's goals still align with your current values and lifestyle. [11:09] Specific Goal-Setting: How to transform vague intentions into measurable, trackable targets.  [13:06] Self-Worth Reminder: Decoupling personal value from goal completion and embracing growth mindset.  

You're not burnt out. If anything, you're probably resentful. There's an emotion many creative business owners carry into the new year without even realizing it: creative resentment. It comes from the quiet frustration that grows when you're underpaid, overbooked, and undervalued—and no one is talking about it.In this episode, I break down what creative resentment actually is, how it creeps in, and how to release it so you can move into 2026 with clarity and confidence. Listen in as I share the three key reflection questions that every creative entrepreneur should ask themselves before setting goals or pricing for the new year.In this episode:How creative resentment shows up—and why it's not your fault.The boundary leaks and unsaid expectations that fuel resentment.Three powerful reflection questions to reset your mindset and business for the new year.Find It Quickly:01:26 - Defining Creative Resentment02:25 - Identifying the Causes of Resentment03:19 - Reflecting on the Past Year04:15 - Three Questions to Release ResentmentMore ways to connect:JOY MICHELLE INSTAGRAMWORK WITH JOY AS YOUR COACHJOY MICHELLE CO.

In this episode of the MaternalRX podcast on the Pharmacy Podcast Network, Danielle sits down with Dr. Tadeh Vartanian, a Pharmacist and Medical Lead with deep expertise in autoimmune diabetes. Drawing on years of clinical practice and research, Dr. Vartanian explains why early detection and precise diabetes classification can dramatically shift outcomes for people who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or managing complex metabolic risks. This conversation delivers a practical, up-to-date overview of diabetes types, maternal risk considerations, screening strategies, and the emerging science behind autoimmune and genetic diabetes. And if you have never heard of monogenic diabetes, you will want to hear this episode! Understanding this category can immediately change how clinicians diagnose and treat patients. Diabetes types explained - How to differentiate type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and monogenic diabetes - Why type 1 is autoimmune and what loss of 80 to 90 percent of beta cells means for patient management - The phases of type 1 diabetes and the predictive power of autoantibodies - How monogenic diabetes presents differently and when to consider genetic testing - Which diabetes types can improve with targeted lifestyle interventions Diabetes screening and diagnostic testing - Why early screening is the most impactful action clinicians can take - When to use hemoglobin A1C, fasting glucose, and the oral glucose tolerance test - A clear explanation of the 50-gram and 100-gram Glucola tests used in gestational diabetes screening and diagnosis - How to identify autoimmune diabetes using autoantibody testing Autoantibody screening programs - TrialNet: the NIDDK-supported program offering at-home screening for people with a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes - ASK (Autoimmunity Screening for Kids): now expanded to adults, with nationwide access through the University of Colorado laboratory - How these programs detect autoimmune diabetes before symptoms develop Genetics, autoimmunity, and diabetes research - How new genetic testing is reshaping the identification of monogenic diabetes - What autoimmune activity means in type 1 diabetes and why early detection matters - Current research, evolving guidelines, and clinical trial insights relevant to maternal health and diabetes care Diabetes and pregnancy - How diabetes influences pregnancy outcomes and why classification accuracy is critical - The long-term significance of gestational diabetes and its link to future type 2 diabetes - Clinical considerations for preconception counseling, prenatal care, and postpartum metabolic health - How maternal diabetes affects the long-term health trajectory of both parent and child Key takeaway from Dr. Vartanian: Screen early and use the right tools. Identifying diabetes risk before symptoms appear can change the course of care at every stage of pregnancy.

You follow Lindsay Manfredi's wild, non-linear path from merch table to main stage, and she shows you exactly how saying yes, showing up, and outworking your fear can change your entire trajectory. You hear how she moved to Florida at twenty chasing a rock-star dream, became an instant Cold superfan, and eventually landed the bass gig through a Twitter message that felt too unreal to be real. She talks candidly about law-of-attraction moments, why every Cold song has to matter, and where the line sits between authentic human creativity and formulaic or AI-generated music. Through it all, she reminds you that most fears never materialize and it takes the same effort to believe in yourself as it does to doubt yourself. Always Be Performing. From there, you shift into the discipline behind her artistry: preparing for tours months in advance, running the set nearly every day, and over-preparing so the stage actually feels fun. She shares how making the road feel like home keeps her grounded, and how her book “The Girl Who Cried Love” came from losing her sense of self and rebuilding true self-worth, not just confidence. You explore dropping habits that don't serve you, reconnecting with what you really value, and even why revisiting Mad Men taught her to only compete with herself. Finally, you wrap with a deep dive into in-ear monitor strategy, why a great mix beats great gear, and the small decisions that make performing sustainable for the long haul. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 513 – Monday, December 22nd, 2025 December 22nd: National Cookie Exchange Day Guest co-host: Linsday Manfredi NAMM coming up!

In this episode, we chat with Stephen Mullowney, CEO of TRX Gold, who are a listed mining company with its flagship project, the Buckreef Gold Project in Tanzania. Stephen's going to unpack the human side behind Buckreef's rapid growth: the moments that forced him to rethink his approach, the wins that mattered more to people than markets, and the misconceptions outsiders still hold about this industry. We explore how leaders handle unpopular decisions, where the real bottlenecks are at site level, the technologies reshaping operations and the ones that haven't lived up to the hype. We'll also look beyond production metrics to ask a bigger question: what does success truly look like for TRX in the next five years, and how sustainable is its current growth path? KEY TAKEAWAYS Effective leadership in the mining industry involves understanding the human side of operations, making decisions that prioritise long-term success over short-term gains, and empowering team members to contribute to decision-making processes. Many people mistakenly attribute a mining company's success solely to commodity prices. While prices do play a role, a strong focus on operational efficiency, growth, and cost discipline is crucial for sustainable success, regardless of market fluctuations. Mining operations face numerous bottlenecks at various stages, from drilling and blasting to crushing and milling. Identifying and addressing these bottlenecks is essential for maintaining efficiency and productivity. The mining industry is gradually adopting new technologies, particularly in areas like exploration and communication. BEST MOMENTS "Mining is a commodity space, and a lot of people give credit for success based on the commodity price, but if you don't keep a good focus on growth and cost discipline, it doesn't matter what commodity price you have." "There's always a bottleneck, and there's always a problem, and it's always in a different spot. Mining has so many little things along the process timeline that can knock you down." "I think technology is really going to help us on the exploration side. We're doing studies now to identify new structures, and competing technology can be good there." "I think the model of not diluting has been good for TRX at Buckreef, and it could continue. I don't see any reason why it can't."

Are you stuck in a cycle of "push, push, push" but feeling like you're hitting a ceiling in your growth? Often, the barriers to our progress aren't our external habits, but the deep-seated belief systems and thought habits that drive our every move. In this episode, JP Nerbun, Nate Sanderson, and Betsy Butterick pull back the curtain on the "Operating Systems" of successful leaders. They dive deep into the five most common limiting beliefs that keep coaches and leaders stuck—from the trap of tying self-worth to productivity to the paralyzing need for certainty before taking action.   Whether you are a veteran coach or an emerging leader, this conversation will challenge you to stop merely "doing" and start examining the mindsets that define your success.

Anyone could walk in at any time—tracking mud on your carpet, eating your food, or sleeping on your couch without asking. You'd feel exposed, anxious, and exhausted. For many people in recovery, this is exactly how they treat their emotional lives. They leave doors wide open, letting people walk all over their time, energy, and peace of mind because they don't know how to build fences.Download The WorksheetIn this episode of The Addicted Mind Plus, hosts Duane Osterlind and Eric Osterlind tackle one of the most critical skills for protecting your recovery: setting healthy boundaries. If you've ever felt that knot in your stomach when someone asks for something you don't want to give—your time, your money, your emotional energy—and heard yourself saying "yes" anyway, this episode is for you.The painful truth is that when we don't set boundaries, we accumulate resentment. And as the saying goes in recovery rooms everywhere, "resentment is the number one offender." It leads directly to stress, emotional chaos, and eventually relapse. If you can't protect your space, you can't protect your sobriety.But why is saying "no" so terrifying, especially in early recovery? Duane and Eric explore the deep fears behind our inability to set limits—the fear of rejection, abandonment, and disappointing others. For many of us, especially those with childhood trauma, we learned early on that we had to perform for our caretakers to receive love. Setting boundaries felt dangerous then, and it still feels dangerous now.Using insights from the evidence-based Seeking Safety Model, developed specifically for people dealing with both trauma and addiction, the hosts break down what healthy boundaries actually look like. They're not rigid walls that shut everyone out—they're more like gates or fences. You get to decide who comes in and who stays out. You get to teach people how to treat you.The episode covers three essential types of boundaries: physical boundaries (your personal space and body), emotional boundaries (protecting your feelings and not taking responsibility for others' emotions), and time/energy boundaries (protecting your schedule and preventing burnout). As Brené Brown famously said, "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others."But knowing you need boundaries and actually setting them are two different things. Duane and Eric provide a simple but powerful formula for expressing your needs without starting a fight. Using "I statements," you can communicate clearly: "I feel [emotion] when you [specific behavior], and I need [specific request or limit]." Instead of attacking someone by saying, "You're so annoying, stop talking about my past," you might say, "I feel uncomfortable and triggered when you bring up my past substance use in casual conversation. I need us to agree that we won't talk about this unless I bring it up first."The key mindset shift? You're not controlling the other person—you're protecting yourself. A boundary isn't about forcing someone to stop their behavior; it's about what you will do if they cross your line. If a friend pushes you to have "just one drink," your boundary might mean saying, "I think it's time for me to leave."This episode comes with a free downloadable worksheet that breaks down the "I statement" formula and gives you space to script out your boundaries before you have to say them out loud. Because as Duane reminds us, when we don't make our boundaries clear ahead of time, our feelings get in the way—guilt, fear, and shame can make our boundaries collapse.Remember: good fences make good neighbors, and great boundaries make for solid recovery.The danger of no boundaries: How leaving your emotional life wide open leads to resentment, stress, and relapseWhy saying "no" feels terrifying: Understanding our deep fears of rejection, abandonment, and disappointing othersThree types of essential boundaries: Physical, emotional, and time/energy boundaries that protect your recoveryThe "I statement" formula: A simple but powerful tool for expressing boundaries without attacking othersBoundaries vs. walls: Learning the difference between healthy gates that let the right people in and rigid barriers that isolate youProtecting yourself, not controlling others: Understanding that boundaries are about what YOU will do, not forcing others to changeSelf-respect as a recovery skill: Why setting boundaries is actually an act of self-love, not selfishnessTimestamp[00:00:40] - The house with no walls: Why living without boundaries leaves you exposed and exhausted[00:03:00] - That knot in your stomach: Recognizing when you're saying "yes" but feeling resentful[00:04:30] - Why boundaries protect sobriety: How resentment becomes the number one offender leading to relapse[00:06:00] - The three types of boundaries: Physical, emotional, and time/energy protection explained[00:09:00] - The practical formula: Learning the "I feel/when you/I need" boundary-setting statement[00:12:30] - The crucial mindset shift: Understanding you're protecting yourself, not controlling others[00:14:00] - Your two-step action plan: Identifying where you need boundaries and scripting your "I statements"See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As we round out 2025, leaders are facing a series of "this-or-that" choices: Control vs. Empowerment, Stability vs. Agility, Automation vs. Humanity. Tammy J. Bond argues that the real superpower for 2026 isn't choosing one—it's holding the space for "Both-And." This episode explores why managers are "drowning" in complexity and how the "Yes, And" framework—Tammy's personal philosophy—can transform paralyzing tensions into opportunities for growth. Learn how to stop "reloading the dishwasher" for your team and start building a culture of trusted productivity. The Leadership Tensions of 2025 The Struggle is Real: The Center for Creative Leadership identifies the top tensions as juggling people vs. results and leading change vs. managing complexity. The Micromanagement Trap: With managers overseeing nearly 3x as many people as they did a few years ago, the default response to stress is often to "tighten the screws." The Cost of Control: Global engagement has slipped to 21%. When you seek more approval and create less autonomy, you create a "why bother?" culture that leads to quiet quitting. Three Non-Negotiable Conversations for 2026 To bridge the gap between control and empowerment, initiate these three dialogues before the new year: The Ownership Ask: "What decisions are you ready to own so I can step out of the way?" (Define the boundaries and metrics together). The Mirror Moment: "Where am I over-controlling you?" Invite honest feedback and define actions to shift that control. The AI Soul Search: "How will we use AI as a 'team member' without losing the soul of our company?" Co-create rules that keep the process human-centric. Your Final Sandbox Challenge Before 2025 ends, identify one thing you currently control that you can release to your team. If you can't find one thing, ask yourself: Is this about risk, or is it my ego? Identifying your "rate-limiting step" is the first move toward becoming a "Both-And" leader. Remember, empowerment doesn't need to be chaos. It's freedom inside a clear framework.

To learn directly from Ethan Hsieh, John Vervaeke and Taylor Barratt, The Lectern is partnering with 5ToMidnight to offer a long form hybrid (online/in-person) practice program called TIAMAT-X. This program brings a full ecology of practices, endorsed by The Vervaeke Foundation to help you develop the capacity to… perceive what matters regulate in real time and act with clarity  …through a cohesive method that weaves together mindful dialogue, embodiment, imaginal practice, and disciplined mindfulness.  Learn more about the program here:  https://www.5tomidnight.org/offerings/tiamat-x  https://lectern.johnvervaeke.com/courses/tiamat-x   In part three of the Lectern Dialogues series, John Vervaeke and Ethan Hsieh explore how virtue can be cultivated as a lived, embodied practice through an immersive ecology of education. The focus is on layered accounts of virtue — civic, purification, and illumination — and the role of ritual, altered states, and phenomenology in shaping meaning and sacredness. The conversation also addresses the risks of deification, authenticity loss, and cult dynamics, inviting a participatory, relational understanding of education oriented toward wisdom and agency. Ethan Hsieh Ethan Hsieh is a facilitator, educator, and philosophical practitioner whose work bridges performance, cognition, and transformative pedagogy. As the creator of TIAMAT—a three-tiered developmental framework—he integrates insights from performance practice, cognitive science, and dialogical philosophy to help individuals cultivate virtuosity as a way of life. Through immersive training containers and collaborative inquiry, he guides participants in mapping their inner experience, expanding their relational capacities, and enacting what he calls "postures of presence." Ethan's approach emphasizes participatory learning, metacognitive mapping, and the cultivation of agency through shared practice. His work with the collective 5toMidnight seeks to foster deliberately developmental communities grounded in relational ontology, where philosophical understanding becomes lived transformation. — 00:00 Welcome to the Lectern 02:00 Exploring virtue and sacredness 04:00 Layers of virtue and practice 06:00 Rituals and altered states of consciousness 10:30 Phenomenology and the sacred 18:00 Transformative insight and lived experience 30:30 Being-in-the-world and interconnectedness 38:00 Framework rejection and deification concerns 40:30 Ego, deification, and demonization 41:00 Virtue and the ego's filtration function 44:00 Addressing cult dynamics 46:00 Identifying healthy traditions and practices 51:30 Realness, resonance, and authenticity 55:00 Logos and the Good 01:06:00 The value of embodied experience — Follow John Vervaeke https://lectern.johnvervaeke.com https://x.com/DrJohnVervaeke https://www.youtube.com/@johnvervaeke https://www.patreon.com/johnvervaeke — Thank you for watching!

My guest today is Henry Ellenbogen, founder and Managing Partner of Durable Capital Partners. Henry built his reputation at T. Rowe Price, where he led the New Horizons Fund and turned it into one of the best-performing small-cap growth portfolios in the country. In 2019, he left to start Durable. His philosophy is grounded in a simple belief that great investing is about understanding people and change. Henry has spent his career studying the rare 1% of companies that drive nearly all long-term returns . Durable's edge comes from being able to tell the difference between a company that is failing and one that is transforming. Henry often talks about “Act II” teams – founders who take the lessons from their first company and apply them to a new frontier. Durable itself is his Act II. In our latest Colossus profile, Managing Editor Dom Cooke traces Henry's story and specifically how he became one of the most influential investors of the 21st century, having learned from founders like Jeff Bezos and John Malone in the early part of his career. I always hear the same thing from founders who've met Henry: “he understood my business faster than anyone”. The thing that sticks with me from our conversation and Dom's profile is just how much he loves investing.
