Allyship Is Awkward: How Therapists Can Keep Showing Up Anyway What if the awkwardness of ally work is not a sign you are doing it wrong, but the actual work? Curt Widhalm, LMFT, and Katie Vernoy, LMFT explore what it looks like to do ally work as a therapist when you hold majority identities the people around you do not share. They move across three zones where this shows up: with clients in the therapy room, with colleagues and consultants in professional spaces, and in broader community and advocacy work. Drawing on their own missteps and on the work of creators like Ashani Mfuko of Anti-Racism School Is In Session and Dr. Raquel Martin of Mind Ya Mental, Curt and Katie make a direct case to white, cis, straight, and other majority-identity therapists: cultural humility is not a credential, fragility shifts the labor onto the people around you, and the strong feelings that come with ally work belong with other allies, not with clients or colleagues of color. This is an episode about staying in the room, decentering yourself, and learning to fail better. In this episode, we discuss: Why ally work is inherently awkward, and why that is not a problem to be solved How fragility, over-apologizing, and gold-star seeking shift the emotional labor onto clients and colleagues of color What repair actually looks like when a cross-cultural rupture happens in session Why being called out by a client can be a sign the relationship is alive enough to repair How to process defensiveness and hurt with other allies instead of with clients or colleagues of color Why cultural humility is not a free pass, and what therapists owe their own continuing education How consultation with diverse colleagues protects clients from being conscripted as your teacher Ally work is ongoing. The goal is not to stop making mistakes. The goal is to keep failing better.

Jeff Liker was guest number three on this podcast back in August 2006. He has been back seven times since, which makes him one of the most frequent guests in the show's history. For this episode, I pulled clips from across those eight conversations, going back almost twenty years. What stood out on the relisten was how much hasn't changed. The lean tools are better known now. There are more books, more case studies, more conferences. The deeper thing Jeff was naming in 2006 - that companies want the words without the work - is the same thing he is still saying in 2026. These aren't his greatest hits. They are the ideas that keep showing up. In this episode, Jeff talks about: The two percent problem: why so few companies have deeply implemented TPS as a system, even after decades of trying How long real transformation takes when Toyota opens a brand new plant under ideal conditions (hint: it isn't fourteen weeks) Why "picking and choosing" lean practices often reinforces the existing management system instead of changing it Fujio Cho on what was hardest to teach Americans about TPS, and why he had to walk the floor every day to teach it Andon, hansei, and why we keep trying to implement a "perfect" lean system instead of a flawed one we can improve The non-negotiables in Toyota Culture, including how Toyota responds when a purchasing manager wants to shut down a US supplier to save thirty percent "Don't skip hats" - what Jeff learned at the UK plant about roles, authority, and going to the gemba to observe rather than solve The difference between the five whys and the five whos, and why the goal isn't the deepest root cause but a controllable one Read the full post with quotes and more at https://leanblog.org/545 

Today's Scripture: John 2:1–11 What do you do when you've run out of energy, patience, joy, or capacity? In today's episode, we look at Jesus' first miracle at the wedding in Cana, where the wine runs out and Jesus quietly meets a hidden need. This passage offers a tender picture of a God who does not shame our lack, but meets us with dignity and generosity. We explore: *Why running out does not mean you've failed *How burnout shows up in your body and nervous system *Why honest naming can become a prayer *How Jesus meets hidden depletion before it becomes public shame *One small way to bring your burn-out to God today Go Deeper: Take the Family Roles quiz Connect with Dr. Alison on Instagram: @dralisoncook Join 80,000+ Soul Menders in Dr. Alison's free email community for ongoing reflection and support.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!SUF NASM Guide: How to pass the NASM CPT exam in 2026 without reading 800 pages. In this Show Up Fitness podcast, we break down the 7 most important NASM CPT topics including the OPT model, overhead squat assessment, planes of motion, muscle imbalances, behavior change, programming, and nutrition. Show Up Fitness has helped 10,000+ trainers pass NASM, ACE, and ISSA faster with quizzes, study guides, weekly calls, and real coaching. KEEP SHOWING UP![Most NASM CPT prep advice pushes you toward the same mistake: read the whole textbook, take random quizzes, and hope your anxiety does not spike on test day. We take the opposite approach. We narrow your attention to the high-impact concepts the NASM personal trainer exam leans on again and again, then show you how to recognize the patterns behind the questions so you can answer faster with more confidence.We start with the basics that buy you easy points: anatomy direction terms and planes of motion, plus simple exercise examples you can recall under pressure. From there we hit behavior change coaching and the stages of change, along with key terms like open kinetic chain versus closed kinetic chain and the roles of agonist, synergist, stabilizer, and antagonist. If you have ever felt like you “knew the material” but still missed questions, this is where the test language starts to make sense.Then we get into the meat: assessments, subjective versus objective information, and how NASM loves to test compensations through overactive and underactive muscle groups, especially with the overhead squat assessment. We also break down the NASM OPT model and acute variables, including the numbers that matter for tempo, reps, rest, and intensity, so you can stop guessing which phase a movement belongs to and start selecting the best answer consistently.If you want to pass the NASM CPT exam without wasting months on low-value studying, press play.

In this solo episode, I share nine practical lessons for managing anxiety and depression, emphasizing the importance of connection, patience, self-kindness, and proactive strategies. Learn actionable steps to support your mental health and help others navigate their challenges. - Timestamps:  00:00 Introduction to Mental Health Challenges 02:02 Lesson 1: Reach Out for Help 05:26 Lesson 2: Be Patient in Your Journey 08:51 Lesson 3: Keep Showing Up for Yourself 11:14 Lesson 4: Recognize Your Brain's Tricks 13:37 Lesson 5: Practice Self-Kindness 15:56 Lesson 6: Resist Dogma in Mental Health 17:51 Lesson 7: Acceptance of Your Feelings 18:19 Lesson 8: Understanding and Support from Others -

Have you ever felt like you've done the work… cleared the trauma… moved through the pain… and yet somehow the same type of challenge keeps showing up again and again? Maybe it looks different each time — a different relationship, a different situation, a different conflict — but underneath it, there's a familiar feeling. In this powerful quick IQ episode, Brandy shares a key insight that can help explain why so many people on the spiritual or self-healing journey feel like life becomes a constant game of "Whac-A-Mole," where one problem gets handled only for another one to pop up somewhere else. The distinction is simple but profound: Sometimes people clear the problem… but they don't clear the deeper pattern. And when the pattern remains, it can continue showing up in new people, new circumstances, and new forms — even when someone has genuinely done a lot of inner work. In this episode, Brandy helps you look beneath the surface so you can begin identifying the deeper patterned way of feeling that may be keeping old struggles alive. She also shares why true transformation requires more than just revisiting the original hurt — it requires re-patterning the mind and creating new neural pathways at a deeper level. This episode is especially powerful for anyone who has ever thought: "I've already worked on this… so why is it still showing up?" Listen in to discover how going deeper can help you stop repeating the same emotional patterns and begin creating more lasting change in your life, healing, and relationships. And as always, please be kind to yourself. This isn't about judgment — it's about understanding the mind in a deeper way so real transformation becomes possible.

This is a previous episode we had to bring back to the top because intuitively... it's what you need to hear most right now!Ever notice how the same patterns keep repeating in your life? New person, new situation… But the exact same frustrations, emotions, reactions, and endings.No matter how many times you try to “fix” whatever's happening in the moment, it doesn't fully shift. It feels like your life is stuck on repeat and you're the only one who never got the blueprint on how to actually change it.Here's what no one tells you:The problem you think you're dealing with is almost never the real issue. That's why it keeps resurfacing in different forms. You're treating the surface-level trigger, but not what's underneath.In this week's episode, we deep dive into the Source truth behind your patterns:Why faking positivity does more harm than goodThe real reason your problems never seem to get “fixed”How running away from your emotions creates more problemsHow to actually work through the patterns that keep popping upI even share a personal story from my pregnancy, a moment I swore was “the problem” only to realize it wasn't the root at all.If you're ready to finally understand why the same problems keep showing up for you and how to end the cycle for good… this episode is a MUST-LISTEN.Join our $50/mo gym membership for your soul, Unf*ck Yourself Membership! 4 perks, 1 space, weekly energetic healing - https://www.alexandraninfo.com/membershipFOLLOW MEInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/alexandraninfo TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@alexandraninfo You Can Also Listen to Unf*ck Yourself Podcast HereSite - https://www.alexandraninfo.com/podcast Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unf-ck-yourself/id1647393740Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4OfhtVIbV73xuSrZ2MnXKZ?si=f3fabaa47ca4482eYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@AlexandraNinfo

About this episode:Today's guest is Erin Rogers, Founder of ERA Collective, Executive Coach, and Leadership Development Partner.In our conversation Erin offers valuable insights into:Motherhood - How becoming a mother made her a better leader, grounded in what matters, more emotionally intelligent, and ultimately led to her pivot into coaching.The mentor who saw her before she saw herself - she shares the Pink Hair story and the lesson of not waiting for permission.Leading through crisis - what her daughter's cancer journey taught her about presence, priorities, and refusing to wait for 'someday.'The power of being seen, and of not hiding.Erin's leadership lessons:Make sure that you really see the people around you. Keep noticing. Name what you see in them. You might be the one who shifts everything. And don't wait - the window isn't guaranteed.Crisis Clarifies. You learn what actually matters - and you stop performing leadership and start living it.One moment of being seen can change everything. That's what psychological safety actually looks like. It's not a policy. It's a moment.Erin's three key encouragements to leaders:Stop waiting for permission. The mentor who asked about my pink hair wasn't giving me permission - she was showing me I didn't need it. And I almost waited too long.See the people around you - even when they're hiding. Ask how they are doing. One question gave me permission to stop shrinking and start helping others.Your next era can be your greatest era - if you're present, listening to the signals, and learning through your experiences. The things I've struggled with most - motherhood, menopause, my daughter's illness - are now the things I use to support other leaders. Nothing is wasted if you're paying attention.About Erin:Erin Rogers is the Founder of ERA Collective, an executive coaching and leadership development consultancy helping leaders show up with intention, build visibility, and navigate the messy middle of professional growth. With 25+ years in senior marketing and communications roles - including 12 years as Director of Brand, Marketing and Communications at EY Canada and 5 years as Country Head of Marketing at HSBC Canada - Erin brings a rare combination of strategic rigour and genuine warmth to her coaching. She is ICF ACC-certified and works with individuals, teams, and organizations ready to step into their next chapter.

Running is usually a solo sport, but community is the one thing that will keep you more consistent than any training plan ever could.Heads up: the wrong edit got published. This was originally a bigger convo for my other company (Pod Paste: Our production/media for brands) So the questions got mixed up. YouTube won't let me swap the file, so we trimmed the off-topic parts instead. Apologies if you caught the messy version.Running may look like a solo sport, but this episode shows why doing everything alone is not always the best way to improve. You'll learn how the right community can turn random workouts into a routine, make hard days easier, and create accountability when motivation fades. It also explains why people return to run clubs, races, and brands again and again. Whether you run alone or with others, these lessons can help you enjoy training more, stay consistent longer, and keep making progress over time.Key TakeawaysConsistency doesn't come from the perfect training plan; it comes from having people who expect you to show up. A group creates accountability that solo running just can't match.Most fitness brands fail because they try to sell a product instead of building a relationship. People want real connections and experiences, not just another advertisement in their feed.Chasing a fast time matters much less than enjoying the process of getting there. Longevity in this sport depends on how the run feels and who is there to share it.Timestamps[00:04] Why Running Alone Still Works[00:13] Find People Who Help You Keep Going[01:22] How to Build a Run Club Audience Online[02:00] Build More Than a Run, Build Friendships[03:15] Keep Showing Up, Consistency Helps a Community Grow Strong[03:58] Use This to Keep Up With Your Run Club[05:10] Why Most Brands Are Failing at Building an Online Community[08:07] What Makes People Return to Races and Clubs[10:55] What Brands Are Missing When It Comes to Building a Run Community[15:49] Why Trust and Shared Values Matter[19:04] Great Experiences Are Built Through Small Details[21:25] Should Marathons Ban Music and Cameras?Links & Learnings

Many of the ways we show up in relationships aren't random…they're roles we learned early in life to navigate our environment and stay connected. In this episode, we take a closer look at the common roles people carry into adulthood and how those patterns quietly influence communication, boundaries, and emotional connection. Through relatable examples, this conversation helps you recognize how these roles may be showing up in your own life—and why they can feel so hard to change. With a grounded, realistic approach, you'll begin to see how awareness of these patterns can open the door to more honest and balanced relationships.   You didn't become "the easy one," "the funny one," or "the strong one"  for no reason.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this powerful and perfect reminder in a post from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he gives a little introduction:  “Anyone else feel this …. Life's been a little strange lately—a mix of blessings, lessons, and confusion. Some days I'm grateful, some days just tired… but I keep showing up and trusting it's all aligning.”  The post that he shared with his thoughts was this: “Life's been a little strange lately …. A mix of blessings, lessons and moments that don't quite make sense yet.  Some days I feel deeply grateful, other days I'm just tired, and sometimes I'm simply trying to understand it all.  But even when it feels heavy, I keep showing up.  I keep moving with trust.  Deep down I know that things are aligning for me, even if I can't fully see it yet.  I'm learning to stop questioning the timing, and instead grow through what I don't understand.”  This was something that of course got my attention because I feel that parts of this is what I feel and see going on around me. Lot's of things going on in life and I'm trying to simplify them to fit what I want my life to be. Life does feel heavy at times and I'm reminding myself to just keep showing up, put in the work for the things I think are important and just keep believing in myself, my wife, my family & loved ones and keep being the best version of myself that I can be. So what about you??

Podcast 326 - Why World-Class Chefs Keep Showing Up to Cook in Dunwoody - Billy Kramer The Burger Benefit is back for one final year, with chefs like George Motz, Vinnie Cimino, Kevin Rathbun, and Freddy Money cooking one-day-only burgers at NFA Dunwoody on May 3rd. Every ticket dollar goes directly to the Giving Kitchen, and tickets just went on sale today. We also got deep into the Dunwoody restaurant scene. Forty-one restaurants opened here last year, and Billy made a strong case for why Dunwoody is a unicorn compared to every other market he looked at for expansion. We talked about what the Giving Kitchen actually does for food service workers in crisis, and why Billy is now permanently donating a quarter from every NFA burger sold. If you have never been to the Burger Benefit, this is the one to go to. It is the last one ever, the lineup is the best it has ever been, and the cause could not be more worthy. Grab your tickets at https://givingkitchen.org/events/the-final-burger-benefit-presented-by-georgia-natural-gas/ before they are gone. --- Full episode summary lives here: whatsupdunwoody.com/podcast-326

Watch here: https://youtu.be/5mKVvlS6SUAIn episode 256 of the Further Your Lifestyle Podcast, host Chris breaks down how to “win” at resilience by continuing to show up when results aren't there, motivation is gone, and life feels hard. He reframes winning as consistency and reps rather than big outcomes, emphasizes that resilience is built through setbacks and storms, and encourages shrinking your standard without shrinking your commitment so you keep the habit alive. Chris also explains why a bad day doesn't mean you've failed, how showing up builds proof instead of pressure, and how consistency can become part of your identity, sharing a compliment from a supplier who wanted to work with him because of his reliability. He closes with reflection questions about where you disappear and what small showing up could look like today.00:00 Welcome and Topic00:52 Resilience Defined02:12 Redefine Winning04:08 Expect It Hard05:24 Shrink the Standard06:36 Stop Self Judging07:46 Build Proof Not Pressure08:44 Make It Identity10:12 Reflect and Wrap UpPodcast Sponsors:Robert PiperHi Voltage BargainsEthan “Rooshock” The BOLO Hunter PODCAST: https://www.furtheryourlifestyle.com/► SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on▹ Spotify | https://bit.ly/FYL_Spotify▹ Apple Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_Apple▹ Google Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_GooglePod► Let's CONNECT on social media:▹ instagram | http://www.instagram.com/furtheryourlifestyle▹ email | hello@furtheryourlifestyle.comMUSIC:» via https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/6hfvrvContinue the conversation:  @furtheryourlifestyleJoin the Newsletter: check it out

In this episode of The Life You're Made For, Dr. Heather Penny sits down with Heather Johnson from Bridgeway Church in Roseville, CA to explore what it really means to experience transformational growth. From navigating seasons of caregiving to stepping into leadership as the first woman to preach at her church, Heather shares how growth is rarely comfortable but always meaningful. Together, they unpack the tension between challenge and purpose, reminding us that while we can't always control what we go through, we can choose how we respond.This conversation dives deep into the inner work of leadership by learning to give yourself grace, recognizing the voice of your inner critic, and building the courage to take risks even when anxiety shows up. You'll hear honest reflections on failure, resilience, and the small, everyday decisions that shape who we become.If you've ever felt stuck between protecting yourself and stepping into something greater, this episode will challenge and encourage you to lean into discomfort, embrace growth at your own pace, and remember: you've done hard things before—and you can do them again.Step into The Life You're Made For, I'm cheering you on!heatherpenny.com@heatherpennyphdMusic & Production by Jason Squires

The episode explains how pole dancers can get stronger using progressive overload, defined as gradually increasing training stress so the body adapts during rest and the same demands become easier over time. It outlines adaptation timelines: neurological and cardiovascular changes can occur quickly (sometimes within a session for neuro drills), noticeable strength gains typically appear after about 3–6 weeks, connective tissue (tendons/ligaments) adapts around the 3-month mark, and bone density changes occur closer to 6 months. Rosy emphasizes easing back into training—especially after a break or postpartum—avoiding self-punishment, and prioritizing rest because adaptation happens during recovery. It describes ways to increase load for pole and bodyweight training: increase training frequency while keeping at least 1–2 rest days per week, increase repetitions, use time-based conditioning like a “pole treadmill” (repeated climbs/descents for time), increase resistance via weights/bands or by selecting harder bodyweight progressions, and use isometrics by holding longer or increasing tension. It notes that muscle damage is not necessarily required for positive adaptation and references Felipe Damas' work (primarily in hypertrophy research), while clarifying the focus is strength training rather than bodybuilding. The episode also explains that the body responds to chronic life stress similarly to training stress, which can hinder strength gains, and encourages stress reduction and enjoyable movement.Citations:SELYE H.

And yet, life keeps asking us to show up — for our families, our work, our communities, and ourselves.In today's episode, we're talking honestly about what it means to keep showing up when everything feels emotionally heavy. Not in a way that ignores reality or pushes toxic positivity — but in a way that honors your humanity, your limits, and your deep capacity for care.This is a gentle conversation about holding empathy without burning out, staying present without carrying everything, and finding small, grounding ways to keep moving forward when the weight of the world feels close to your heart.If you've been feeling tired, discouraged, or unsure how to balance awareness with peace, this episode is for you. You are not weak for feeling this way — you are human. And you don't have to carry it all alone.

What you do matters. It's not about numbers or success but the value of your faithfulness, and what God can do. Resource:tsuzanneeller.com

In this powerful compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two deeply moving conversations that center on faith, perseverance, and the meaning we assign to adversity. First, Ben finally sits down with Inky Johnson, a conversation years in the making. Inky shares how a career-ending injury became the foundation for a life of purpose, leadership, and impact. He breaks down why behavior always precedes belief, how humility fuels true discipline, and why faith—not circumstance—is the anchor that allows you to endure life's hardest moments. This is not a story about football; it's about choosing to give suffering meaning and refusing to waste the lessons adversity brings.Then, Ben is joined by mortgage-industry leader, coach, and author J. J. Mazzo, who opens up about the messy middle—imposter syndrome, financial pressure, family leadership, and faith—while unpacking the principles behind his book Perseverance Principles. J. J. shares how transparency, grace, and standards helped him rebuild during seasons of shame and uncertainty, and why leading at home is the ultimate test of character. From donating his book proceeds to charity to building a mission-driven coaching company, J. J.'s story is a reminder that perseverance isn't just about surviving—it's about serving, growing, and choosing light when darkness feels overwhelming. Together, these conversations deliver a clear message: when faith anchors discipline and purpose fuels action, perseverance becomes possible—no matter how heavy the moment feels.************************************Connect with Inky Johnson:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/inkyjohnsonmotivate/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/inkyjohnsonWebsite: https://www.inkyjohnson.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@InkyDJohnson************************************Connect with J.J.

Consistency is the foundation of strength training—but it's also the hardest part. In the first episode of the C.L.A.R.A. series, Andrew and Niki break down why strength training consistency matters more than motivation, outcomes, or perfect programming. If you've ever struggled to stick with lifting, lost momentum after early progress, or felt discouraged by slow results, this episode explains why that's normal—and how to stay in the process anyway. C.L.A.R.A. stands for Consistency, Longevity, Accountability, Resilience, and Adaptability. These five principles form the mental framework for lifelong strength, health, and sustainable training. This episode focuses on consistency because everything else flows from it. You'll hear why outcomes like PRs and physique changes can become distractions, how discomfort and delayed feedback sabotage consistency, and why buy-in matters more than motivation. The conversation also explores common obstacles to staying consistent with strength training, including soreness, injury, decision fatigue, limiting beliefs, and the mental load of trying to do everything "right." This episode kicks off a new series designed to help lifters think beyond the barbell and build strength that lasts for decades—not just months. Timestamps 00:00 – Why this series exists and why consistency comes first 03:00 – Introducing the C.L.A.R.A. framework 06:15 – Consistency over outcomes and PR obsession 09:45 – Buy-in, churn, and why consistency drives results 14:00 – Discomfort, delayed feedback, and limiting beliefs 21:30 – Decision fatigue, friction, and the role of coaching 30:15 – Looking ahead to longevity and the long game PS - Ready to finally see real change? Lean In 12 delivers noticeable fat loss, improved strength, and unmatched consistency through expert coaching and daily support — all in one premium 12-week program.

If the same objections keep showing up, it's not coincidence. It's information. This Windshield Time compilation brings together the most replayed conversations on objection handling — not because they're clever, but because they reveal the same mistakes happening over and over in real service calls. Across these moments, one pattern is clear:  Technicians aren't losing trust because they say the wrong thing. They lose trust because they skip steps. In this episode, Chris Elmore breaks down: Why objections repeat when something wasn't understood How jumping to solutions creates resistance later Why price objections are rarely about price How assumptions damage credibility instantly Why objections are diagnostic clues, not pushback How LEAP works when pressure shows up Objections aren't rejection. They're signals that something hasn't been connected yet. This episode puts the full picture together — so you can stop reacting to objections and start preventing them.

This month on Resilient Youth, we're joined by Live Like Sam founder Ron Jackenthal for a look back at a year spent guiding young people toward confidence, resilience and their own unique power.

I came across a short but powerful (and truthful) post from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) that reminds us all about something so meaningful.  “If everything around seems dark, look again, you may be the light.” - Rumi.  What an amazing and encouraging statement to always take with us wherever we go! I was watching a new show, Boston Blue and in the recent episode, one of the main characters brought up this fact that he needed to simply keep showing up to listen to and be there for others. To me, that is exactly what this post is all about. You may be the light that you think may not be around. Just keep doing your best. Keep showing up for others.  You will make a difference for sure, even if you can't see it.
