In this episode, we are digging into 10 foundational health pillars that here at Graced Heath, we believe are super helpful to be prioritized before diving into biohacking and trendy wellness advice. Using a house-building analogy, you'll hear me (hi, it's Amy!) emphasize getting the "foundation" right before focusing on the "decorative details" of health optimization. You'll hear in today's episode:1. Why you actually don't have to do "all the health things" 2. Why I recommend focusing on these foundational elements before pursuing biohacking trends 3. How these foundations are research-backed and more impactful than trendy supplements or restrictive eating 4.

Direct Mail & AI: Old-School Impact with New-School ToolsDirect mail is making a comeback — and when paired with AI, it becomes an even stronger marketing tool. In a digital-first world, a tangible piece of mail can stand out, build trust, and validate your brand. Add AI into the mix, and you can streamline the process, refine yourmessage, and connect with prospects in smarter, more personal ways.

She walks through her recent Fabtech promotion as a case study, highlighting how validating postal data, segmenting audiences, andintegrating direct mail with digital campaigns creates measurable results.

Stronger relationships, deeper trust, and marketing that truly cuts through the noise.Key Takeaways You Can Implement Right Away:Validate your list before you send — accurate data builds credibility.Segment your audience so each message speaks directly to their role and challenges.Use AI to refine your copy — test different tones (professional vs. conversational) and let ChatGPT help polish your message.Integrate channels — don't stop at postal; link your direct mail with email, social, or tradeshow outreach.Start small, then scale — test with 50 targeted pieces, measure responses, and expand from there.Episode Chapters00:00 Introduction: The Power of Direct Mail00:38 Meet Donna Peterson: Your Guide to Direct Mail01:11 The Resurgence of Direct Mail02:18 Building Trust Through Direct Mail04:02 Case Study: Promoting Fabtech with Direct Mail05:58 Steps to a Successful Direct Mail Campaign09:28 Segmenting Your Audience for Maximum Impact10:41 Crafting Personalized Messages with AI14:15 Integrating Direct Mail with Digital Marketing17:40 Conclusion: Old-School Impact with New-School ToolsIf this episode sparks ideas for your business, we'd love to hear from you.Sign up to receive podcast announcements, leave a comment, and rank the show — your feedback helps us continue delivering the conversations and strategies that matter most to you.

InflexionPoint Podcast | Episode 922025 Theme: Community Engagement & the Grassroots of Change Introduction Welcome to another episode of InflexionPoint Podcast, where we are dedicated to antiracism activation and the art of listening in authentic conversation, engagement, action, and accountability. Featuring creator/host Anita D. Russell, joined by co-hosts Mavis Bauman and Gail Hunter. Throughout the year, we've been lifting up stories, strategies, and successes of community-driven movements. But in this episode, we take a different approach: exploring the adverse impact of community disengagement, focusing on the painful story of gentrification in Pittsburgh, PA. How We Got Here Anita opens up the conversation with a stark reality: Community disengagement in Pittsburgh cannot be separated from the city's long arc of gentrification. Policies that began with redlining and urban renewal set the stage for today's tech-driven investment and redevelopment, which often unfolds without strong tenant protections or genuine community power. The Pittsburgh Paradox: Pittsburgh was named one of America's Most Livable Cities (2005–2018). In 2019, it was also identified as America's 8th most gentrified city. In 2021, Jerry Dickinson, law professor at the University of Pittsburgh, described it as “America's Apartheid City.” This is the Reality We Must Confront The History of Displacement Gail leads a disccussion revealing Pittsburgh' multi-layered history: From racial covenants, redlining (1930s) and urban renewal devastating a vibrant Black community (1950s-60s); to so-called "modernization" that triggered decades of decline (1960s); to Steel Collapse to "Eds and Meds" (1980s-2000s) leading to struggles against overwhelming odds for communty nonprofits. 2010s to Today: The city formalized “community input” via Registered Community Organizations, but too often those processes lacked teeth. Meanwhile, private reinvestment accelerated land values, displacement, and racialized housing cost burdens. Imagine Authentic Engagement Mavis guides you to envision what true engagement and anti-displacement could look like in Pittsburgh. The short answer is this: Participation without power is not enough. Authentic engagement means redistributing decision-making power back to the people most affected. Key shifts required: Shift from input to shared governance. Stabilize residents where they live. Integrate commuunity equity and inclusion in development rules. Resource community voice. Execute real-time accountability. Call to Action Gentrification in Pittsburgh is not new—it's another chapter in a long story of disinvestment, removal, and broken promises. When people feel decisions are made over them, not with them, they disengage. But disengagement is not destiny. What action are you willing to take? Watch: https://youtu.be/XBBNWXAErWs

Please forward this to ONE friend today and tell them to subscribe here.In this episode, I'm speaking to Sweta Regmi, who's lived in Canada for over two decades.Two decades is a while, and Sweta says if she were to compress all she's learned over those years into one piece of advice for new immigrants, it would be "ASK FOR HELP."I agree. I learned this the hard way. And maybe someday I'll tell that story. But yes, ask for help. Don't try to figure it out all on your own. But there are caveats here. As Sweta puts it, "Watch out for folks who who project their own limitations onto you, like someone who tells you that making six figures is impossible."I think the key message Sweta is passing on here is find people who have lived the life you want to live. This isn't about finding someone with a PhD or a fancy title, but someone with relatable, lived experience who can offer genuine guidance.In this conversation, Sweta and I chat about the importance of finding mentors who are honest about their struggles. We also explore:* Why she sees her 25-year journey in Canada as beautiful* The origin story behind her business, TeachnDo* Why she resisted celebrating Canadian holidays at first, and what changed her mind* Why you shouldn't compromise your identity just because you want to fit inDozie's NotesA few things that stuck with me as I listened through this week's conversation:* Not judging anyone, but those little compromises you make to fit in can often backfire. Integrate all right, but don't erode your sense of self in the process. You have a heritage that's beautiful in its own right. * Continuing from above, moving means you can curate the culture you want to uphold or live by. You can choose to discard the negative aspects of your heritage or home culture (like gender biases in Sweta's case) and replace them with the positive elements from your new culture. The result is a new personalized way of life. Sounds utopian, but it's doable.* The source of your advice can make or break you. I would go further to say the folks you speak to within the first two weeks in the country can limit or propel you forward.

I'm bringing back your absolute favourite guest, Nivek Harrison, for a special 2 part series. Niv is our incredible online business manager and longtime co-coach here at Swift Ventures and we're peeling back the curtains on how we co-coach in the Scalable Freedom Mastermind, what it practically looks like behind the scenes and how we work together to serve our clients in the best possible way. Niv and I have completely different skillsets which makes our dynamic really special and something that I absolutely cherish. If you've been curious about adding a co-coach to your mastermind or wondering how the dynamics actually play out behind the scenes, this conversation is for you.We talk about the foundation of successful co-coaching, which starts with values alignment paired with complementary strengths. I share why you don't want a carbon copy of yourself as a co-coach and how different perspectives actually serve your clients better. We explore the crucial role of trust in co-coaching relationships and why giving your co-coach freedom to anchor into their leadership creates the safe, supportive environment clients crave. The conversation also covers how to handle disagreements constructively, removing ego from the equation to focus on what's best for the business and clients. We address the common concern of "what if my perfect co-coach leaves?" and discuss how to integrate their expertise without making them the cornerstone your mastermind depends on.Key Takeaways from This Episode:• Find a co-coach with complementary strengths, not someone who's a carbon copy of you • Trust is the foundation—give your co-coach freedom to lead in their expertise • Handle disagreements with clear communication and remove ego from the situation • Always come back to what's best for the business and client, even if personal opinions differ • Integrate co-coach expertise as enhancement, not as the core foundation of your mastermind • Your mastermind must be able to thrive even if your co-coach moves on • Stay actively present as the lead coach to maintain the integrity of the client experience • Robust systems and documentation are essential for seamless co-coaching collaborationIf you're considering adding co-coaching to your mastermind or wondering how to make the dynamics work effectively, remember that it starts with finding someone whose strengths complement yours and whose values align with your mission. When you get that foundation right, the magic that unfolds will benefit everyone involved.

Can dreaming help us integrate psychedelic experiences? How dreams and visions can both take us to the boundaries of consciousness. Today's guest Adam Miezio talks about how dreams and psychedelics both access the unconscious and that taking powerful psychedelics can be like tilling the soil of consciousness. He describes what he calls divine influx or a cosmic download in which we have insights that seem to be from outside of ourselves and about the pros and cons of setting intentions. Also the hypnagogic state, mysticism, and the collective unconscious. After the break, we take a question from Max about the difference between the subconscious and the unconscious, and we talk about John Lilly who used LSD to communicate with dolphins in the 1970s and developed sensory isolation tanks. We end with Katherine sharing some of her experiences of being high in dreams and Adam recommends the movie Waking Life. Global Psychedelic Week will be an online conference November 3-9. BIO: Adam Miezio is a writer in the psychedelics field, thanks to lifelong psychedelic journeying and plant medicine work. Born in Chicago, he received his master's degree from Northeastern Illinois University..

Welcome to episode 217 - Highs and Lows, in this episode we will talk about how life is full of ups and downs—and I'm learning more and more that both are not only inevitable, but necessary. In this episode, I share how I've been thinking about highs and lows lately, and why the “low tide” moments in our lives are not something to rush through or judge, but to actually honor and work with. I'll take you back to a trip my family and I took to Haystack Rock on the Oregon coast, and how seeing it at both high tide and low tide became a powerful metaphor for my own life (and maybe for yours too). I'll also talk about the natural emotional waves we experience—whether we're in the middle of a mission, adjusting to life after, or supporting someone we love—and how the ebb makes the flow possible. If you've been feeling like you're in a dip, this episode is your reminder that it's part of the process, it's part of the beauty, and it often brings its own treasures if we let it. Let's walk through it together. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan flies solo (with Road Dog sending in questions) and dives deep into trending business topics, including the unpredictable future of AI, motivating affluent business owners, mastering networking charisma, and the true meaning of adaptability in business. Karl also shares a heartfelt personal story and his “Zen” take on purpose, legacy, and what makes life meaningful—offering practical strategies and inspirational takeaways for coaches and entrepreneurs aiming to thrive in a rapidly changing world. Key Topics Covered 1. AI Uncertainty, Hype, and How to Handle It as a Coach Karl reflects on reactions to his AI predictions and discusses why the loudest experts often know the least. Real-world AI adoption is more delayed and unpredictable than people expect—think self-driving cars and regulatory hurdles. The smarter play: treat AI as “gasoline” (an accelerator), not the “vehicle.” Integrate and adapt, but don't get paralyzed by hype or panic. Educate yourself, but don't let the hype steal your focus—stay grounded in serving clients and growing your practice. 2. The Four Pillars of a Meaningful Life Karl opens up about a personal loss, sharing four foundational elements for a purposeful life: something to love, something to look forward to, something to work on, and something to believe in. He ties these into both personal and coaching success, urging listeners to minimize distractions (entertainment) and maximize presence, connection, and purpose. 3. How to Motivate Wealthy (Non-Money-Motivated) Clients Most people are driven by money, status, relationships, or freedom; successful business owners often shift motivation from money to status or freedom. Karl stresses you must first discover their TRUE motivator—often it's still achievement, status, freedom, or a new challenge. Set clear rules and targets: If the goalpost keeps moving (“I just need 3x more to feel successful”), help them create urgency and satisfaction with a concrete number and timeframe. 4. Charisma and Connection in Networking The #1 secret to converting coaching clients at groups like BNI or Chamber: charisma. Ditch the boring, predictable intros. Karl shares headline techniques for memorable, magnetic first impressions and the power of presence. True connection comes from listening to listen (not to respond), giving others your undivided attention, and being both interesting and interested. Actionable body language and confidence cues, plus tips for delivering genuine, effective compliments. 5. Adaptability Over Strength Businesses (and coaches) that survive and thrive aren't the strongest—they're the most adaptable. Real-world examples: McDonald's pivot to breakfast, Netflix's shift to content creation, Lego's partnerships, and Karl's own pivot to focus on profit (not just revenue) in his Profit Acceleration Software. Adaptability is about integrating feedback fast, pivoting with change, and using new technology (like AI) as an accelerator, not a crutch. Notable Quotes “AI is gasoline, not the vehicle… use it as turbo for your business.” “You want to motivate someone? First, know exactly what motivates them.” “Be interesting and be interested. Give them the gift of your presence.” “It's not the strong who survive—it's the adaptable.” “Four things for a meaningful life: something to love, something to look forward to, something to work on, something to believe in.” Actionable Takeaways Use AI as an Accelerator: Educate yourself on AI tools and opportunities, but don't let the noise overwhelm you—focus on integrating AI to speed up and improve what you already do well. Double Down on Connection: Whether with clients or new contacts, deliver your full attention, make genuine compliments, and be confident in your introductions to stand out in a crowd. Discover and Target Core Motivators: Before you can motivate a client (especially one who thinks they've “arrived”), figure out if they're now seeking status, freedom, or new achievement—then tailor your coaching accordingly. Limit Distraction, Maximize Purpose: Trim entertainment and refocus on your own family, finances, and business. Use the “four pillars of meaning” as a self-check. Set Concrete Goals and Rules (for Yourself and Clients): Instead of always moving the goalpost, agree on a success benchmark and timeframe. Use time as a tool to create urgency and satisfaction. Practice Charisma at Networking Events: Open with confidence—try lines like, “Hi, I'm Karl Bryan. I don't think we've met yet.” Share your three most interesting facts, and always listen to truly understand. Model Adaptability: Stay ready to pivot—learn from feedback, embrace new technologies, and don't get stuck in old ways just because they once worked. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software (developed by Karl Bryan) – Tools for coaches to accelerate business profits using incremental improvements. Networking Groups: – BNI, Chamber of Commerce Recommend Reading: – “The Game” by Neil Strauss (for lessons on charisma and connection) Mindset Quotes: – Mother Teresa on the ripple effect of one person's love – Wayne Gretzky on skating not to the puck, but “where the puck is going” If you enjoyed the episode, please subscribe, share with a fellow coach, and leave a review.

Send us a text00:00:00 - Surf's Up: Season 6, Episode 11 This week, we modify our usual episode structure to focus on multi-metabolic practices and constructs. The multi-metabolic practices covered this week are run by non-hepatologists who have chosen to focus on the liver in a broader cardiometabolic context. They include two practices discussed during a two-part roundtable, one run by US gastroenterologist Dr. Karen Jerome-Zapadka and the EDOM practice in Spain, run by endocrinologists. The expert interview is with Dr. Emily Andaya, an internist who helms a cardiometabolic practice in Indiana, US, that focuses on the liver. 00:14:23 - Roundtable Part I: Groundbreaker and introductionThe core of the episodes started during the weekly groundbreakers, as guests began to describe the path that brought them from single-disease specialization to the broader multi-metabolic practice.. Immediately after the groundbreakers, participants describe their clinics today, including patient population and principles underlying their approach to treatment.00:26:15 - Roundtable Part II: Tools they useGuided by Louise, the specialists discuss the devices they use to screen and stage patients and the drugs they use to treat them. One interesting item that emerges is that EDOM relies on a 0-to-4 disease severity classification, but it does not align point-by-point with the 4-point fibrosis scale common in MASH. 00:40:28 - Roundtable Part III: Training Providers in the ClinicsLouise starts this segment by asking the EDOM team how they train practitioners in their clinic. EDOM trains practitioners in nutrition and technologists in the proper use of scanning devices. Karen comments that one big issue in re-training involves the length of visits: 15 minutes for a typical GI visit vs. 60 minutes for an initial multi-metabolic session and 30 minutes for follow-ups. Along with this, the information gathering technique are different.00:50:57 - Roundtable Part IV: Patient Health and Wrap-upLouise asks participants whether and how they have measured the impact the multi-metabolic approach has on patients' health (profound in both cases) and whether they are seeing an increase in HCC. Karen sees a difference among her long-term patients, while EDOM refers patients before their fibrosis reaches cirrhosis stage. In the last part of the episode, panelists share perspectives on how their initial specialties fit with the broader multi-metabolic practice and the kinds of impact they can have on patients.01:12:50 - Expert: Dr. Emily Andaya discusses US initiatives in multi-metabolic healthThis week's expert is Dr. Emily Andaya, an Indiana (US)-based internist whose practice has expanded to take on a multi-metabolic focus. She begins by discussing her recent attendance at the American Society for Preventive Cardiology (SPC) meeting in Boston, where she heard a talk by Dr. Christos Montzoros, an endocrinologist and multi-metabolic advocate, who emphasized the importance of incorporating the liver into preventive cardiology's focus. Louise and Emily agree that cardiometabolic focus involves evaluating general, overall health, but Emily discusses how this might require a deeper or broader testing protocol for each target organ. Emily describes the 4-point CKM scale and Louise asks how fibrosis or NAS scoring, as deployed in the MASH CRN system, might be valuable here. This is a far-ranging conversation, but one special point of interest involves the psychological benefit of telling a patient they need to treat one (multi-metabolic) condition, instead of separate heart, kidney, endocrinological and liver conditions, which might feel far more overwhelming. 01:48:48 - ConclusionBecause Roger is on vacation, there is no business report this week.

Authentic leadership through inner work is more than a practice, it's the key to unlocking your full potential and creating lasting impact as a leader. In this powerful episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Carrie Freeman, CEO and General Manager of Vara Winery and Distillery, who shares how embracing vulnerability, intuition, and self-awareness has completely transformed her leadership style and elevated her success. Carrie's extraordinary journey from global innovation executive to winery CEO illustrates how leading from the inside out creates deeper connections, stronger teams, and greater fulfillment. Carrie has a fascinating background, transitioning from her role as co-CEO of SecondMuse, a global innovation company that collaborated with organizations such as NASA, the White House, and the World Bank, to now running a thriving winery and distillery. We discuss the realities of operating a winery, examining how Carrie's leadership skills enabled her to enter an industry where she initially lacked expertise—and why being an outsider can sometimes provide the fresh perspective a business needs most. Throughout our conversation, Carrie highlights the misconception that humans are purely rational decision-makers. She emphasizes that relying exclusively on logic can limit our ability to lead effectively. By tapping into intuition, emotion, and inner wisdom, leaders can gain deeper insights, make better decisions, and build stronger relationships. Mic Drop Moment: • “Expertise is valuable, but curiosity is a superpower. When you admit you don't know everything, you unlock your team's full potential.” • “Sometimes there isn't a problem to solve. True leadership is knowing when to step back and let things unfold.” What You'll Learn in This Episode: • Why Expertise Isn't Everything • Inner Work as the Foundation for Outer Success • Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energy • Vulnerability as a Strength Key Takeaways: 1. Be Curious, Not Just Expert: Embrace curiosity and humility; empowering your team can often yield better solutions than claiming expertise. 2. Listen to Your Intuition: Great leaders trust their gut and heart as much as their intellect; purely rational decisions often miss deeper insights. 3. Integrate, Don't Balance: Leadership is not about perfect balance but about discerning when to engage action-oriented or intuitive energies effectively. 4. Lead with Vulnerability: Authenticity and vulnerability build deeper trust, stronger relationships, and a healthier organizational culture. 5. Recognize There Isn't Always a Problem to Solve: Resist the urge to fix everything; sometimes stepping back and allowing situations to naturally evolve is the best course of action. About Carrie Freeman: Carrie Freeman is the CEO and General Manager of Vara Winery and Distillery in Albuquerque, NM, and previously served as co-CEO of SecondMuse, a global innovation consultancy. Passionate about authentic leadership, innovation, and sustainability, Carrie guides leaders and businesses toward deeper success by emphasizing self-awareness, purpose, and authenticity.

Episode 104: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Steve Reder, Partner & Head of Wealth Management at RWA Wealth Partners. Kyle and Steve talk about the four pillars of generational wealth planning. They discuss how RWA Wealth Partners is a boutique firm of consequence, what that means in practice, and how Steve and his team help clients create lasting legacies through financial planning, investment strategy, tax planning, and estate planning. Steve also shares thoughtful advice on building generational relationships and delivering high-touch, in-house services in a scalable way. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (01:51) - Steve's money moment (05:23) - What it means to be a boutique firm of consequence (06:18) - The four pillars of generational wealth planning (09:05) - Strategies for engaging kids in family planning meetings (11:07) - In-house tax and estate planning (13:32) - Why RWA rebranded (15:43) - RWA's future model: Recruitment and strategic acquisitions (18:36) - RWA's AUM-based model (23:20) - The indispensable role of human advisors in the age of AI and technology (28:07) - How advisors help successful people navigate the guilt of success (32:03) - RWA's tech stack (36:30) - Steve's thoughts about the future of the industry (38:21) - Roadblocks to full integration and seamless advisor experience (40:50) - What makes a great advisory platform (42:10) - Steve's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Clients should see you, the advisor, as the primary source of value—not the technology you use. While tech platforms and planning tools are helpful, over-emphasizing them can commoditize your offering. Integrate them seamlessly, but position your expertise, empathy, and judgment as the core differentiators. Strong client relationships create flexibility and grace, even when mistakes happen. Steve's own journey began with an advisor who invested deeply in him as a teenager. That kind of trust and emotional connection builds loyalty and long-term impact far beyond any specific financial strategy or return. Effective family meetings and estate conversations start with storytelling and values—not spreadsheets. Clients are often hesitant to disclose financial details to their children, but when advisors help lead with legacy, life lessons, and shared purpose, families become more engaged, and the next generation is more likely to stay connected to the firm. AI and integrated platforms can dramatically boost efficiency, but they must be in service of deeper client interaction. Tools can enhance insight, but human advisors remain irreplaceable—especially in emotionally complex financial decisions. The firms that win will be those that use tech to empower advisors, not diminish their role.

“Detection is not the end—it's just the beginning.” — Jerry Mancini, NETSCOUT In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green speaks with Jerry Mancini of NETSCOUT about the company's latest advancements in automated threat detection and response—with a particular focus on why telecommunications networks are uniquely vulnerable and high-value targets. NETSCOUT, long known for its deep packet inspection and network performance management, is expanding the capabilities of its adaptive threat analytics—a platform designed not only to detect threats but also to assemble and contextualize them using network-level intelligence. Beyond Detection: Seeing the Full Picture While most cybersecurity tools focus on isolated detections—EDR, firewall logs, and suspicious indicators—NETSCOUT's approach centers on reconstructing the complete threat narrative across the enterprise. By capturing packet data continuously and using workflows to connect disparate detections, NETSCOUT enables investigators to: Understand the root cause and lateral movement Detect activity before and after a flagged incident Integrate signals from multiple sources (EDR, NDR, WAF, and more) Investigate threats in real time and retrospectively Why Telcos Are at Greater Risk Mancini highlights the unique role of telco infrastructure in global data movement, making them prime targets for cyber espionage and traffic manipulation. Attackers, such as the Salt Typhoon group, have used compromised routers and peering points to reroute and eavesdrop on massive data flows—impacting not just carriers but their customers across the internet. Best Practices for Threat Hunters NETSCOUT supports both bottom-up investigations (starting with a detected incident) and top-down threat hunts (searching for indicators tied to known campaigns). The platform's ability to store and search packet-level data gives teams visibility that goes far beyond typical log-based detection tools. Mancini's key advice: “You need more than alerts—you need the data to trace back, understand what happened, and act before it's too late.” Where to Learn More Visit netscout.com to explore solutions in: Network Performance Management DDoS Detection & Mitigation Adaptive Threat Analytics NETSCOUT supports both enterprise and service provider environments and is available to assist with immediate and long-term threat management strategies.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Three Weeks and Moshiach What powerful psychological lessons do we learn from this period in dealing with our own setbacks and difficulties? How do we look at today's events in the Middle East through the lens of the Three Weeks? Are they a sign of the imminent redemption? After all the signs and promises that Moshiach is about to come, how do we avoid being skeptical that it will happen now? What did the Rebbe mean when he said that the birurim were completed? How do we receive and greet Moshiach? How to achieve geulah consciousness? Will the Third Temple be a physical structure or a spiritual state of consciousness? What does it mean that we are not “obligated to finish the job, but we are not free to abandon it” either? The Rebbe said: “do all you can.” What more can we do? Should we be trying any “trick” methods to bring the geulah? Should we be quitting our jobs and just be focusing on the work to prepare ourselves and the world for Moshiach? Does the geulah have to come by the year 6000? How can we integrate the geulah paradigm into our daily lives and routines?

Send us a textA Summer Replay of One of Our Favorite Conversations here on the podcast: Episode 108. Dr. Alison Cook guides us and helps us understand:What if the overwhelming thoughts and feelings you've been trying to suppress, ignore, or overcome could actually become your greatest allies? In this profound conversation with Dr. Allison Cook, PhD, we delve into a revolutionary approach to emotional health through the concept of internal boundaries.Dr. Cook introduces us to the Internal Family Systems model, which recognizes the various "parts" within our souls. These managers keep us organized and productive, the firefighters who rush to numb our pain, and the exiles who carry our deepest hurts. Rather than viewing these parts as enemies to be conquered, she teaches us how to set compassionate boundaries with them and transform them into valuable allies.At the heart of this conversation is a radical truth: you get a say in your own life. For many of us, especially women, we've been conditioned to trust others' voices over our own. Dr. Cook challenges this pattern by showing how spirit-led self-leadership empowers us to honor our God-given voice while maintaining healthy relationships. This isn't selfish—it's stewardship of the unique self God created you to be.We dive deep into the practical "U-turn" process—Focus, Befriend, Invite God, Unburden, and Integrate—that helps us approach overwhelming emotions with curiosity rather than condemnation. Through stories, examples, and theological insights, Dr. Cook demonstrates how this approach differs from spiritual bypassing, offering instead a truly integrated path to healing that honors both psychology and faith.Perhaps most beautifully, Dr. Cook introduces us to the concept of "baptized imagination"—engaging our creative right brain alongside our analytical left brain in our healing journey. Like Jesus teaching through parables, sometimes our most profound transformation comes through imagery and narrative rather than mere logic.Whether you've struggled with people-pleasing, anger, anxiety, or any overwhelming emotion, this conversation offers hope. There's a path to freedom that doesn't require silencing parts of yourself, but instead welcoming them home. Ready to rewrite your story and discover the allies waiting within your soul? Listen now, and take your first step toward inner boundaries that truly set you free.Visit Dr. Alison Cook's website: Boundaries for Your SoulSupport the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

The Mindful Healers Podcast with Dr. Jessie Mahoney and Dr. Ni-Cheng Liang
A real-time invitation to pause, reflect, and integrate. In this special mid-year episode, we offer you the spaciousness and tools to reconnect with your intentions, acknowledge your growth, and mindfully marinate in what matters most. We reflect openly on our guiding words for the year—how they've supported us, challenged us, and shaped our journeys so far. With humor, honesty, and heart, we invite you to slow down and notice what's working, what's shifted, and what your future self will thank you for. This is an imperfect, spontaneous practice of self-kindness—and a gentle reminder that true healing happens not just through action but through thoughtful integration. Pearls of Wisdom: Reflecting mid-year is a powerful way to integrate growth and move forward with clarity and intention. Questions like “What have I done well?” and “What's bringing me joy?” help retrain our brains toward positive attention and away from perfectionism. Your words of the year—whether you remember all of them or just one—can serve as wise, compassionate guides when revisited with openness. Resting, in all its forms, is not a pause from progress—it is progress. You don't have to answer every question, or reflect perfectly; this is about practicing awareness with kindness. Reflection Questions: What have I done well? What has gone well? What is working well? What's bringing you joy, delight, or fun? What have you loved so far this year? What will your future self thank you for spending more time on in the next six months? Allow yourself to answer only what resonates and let the rest marinate. Let this be a moment to reset with kindness. Stay until the end for a grounding mindful moment of reflection—an opportunity to fully pause, breathe, and let the insights of this episode settle gently into your heart. If this episode resonated with you and you're longing to explore your own healing, reflection, or transformation journey, I would love to support you.
