Angela welcomes back Ben Azadi, author of the new book "Metabolic Freedom" to delve into the critical differences between metabolic freedom and the common state of metabolic prison, where individuals are trapped in a cycle of sugar burning and insulin resistance. Ben shares insights from his extensive research, stressing the importance of maintaining balanced blood sugar levels and the role of muscle mass in enhancing insulin sensitivity, while Angela recounts her personal journey with PCOS and how dietary changes transformed her health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals are trapped in a "metabolic prison," primarily burning sugar for energy, which can lead to insulin resistance and various health issues. In contrast, metabolic freedom allows the body to efficiently switch between burning sugar and fat, promoting better energy levels and overall health. High insulin levels are a precursor to metabolic diseases, including diabetes and heart disease. Regular testing of fasting insulin levels is crucial for assessing metabolic health, with optimal levels being in the single digits. Increasing muscle mass through strength training enhances insulin sensitivity and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Maintaining muscle as one ages can prevent metabolic slowdown and promote better health outcomes. Focusing solely on calorie counting can be misleading. Instead, prioritizing the quality of food—such as whole, unprocessed foods—can lead to better hormonal balance and overall health, making weight loss a natural side effect of improved health. Chronic stress can lead to elevated cortisol levels, which promote fat storage and hinder fat burning. Managing stress through various methods, including exercise and mindfulness, is essential for maintaining metabolic health and overall well-being. BEST MOMENTS "Unfortunately, most people are in a metabolic prison. They're handcuffed by food in order to have some short energy... when you are stuck burning sugar, it's not a fun way to live." "I think the misconception is that if we don't have good control of our metabolism, then we're going to look overweight. I certainly didn't... I was slim and fit and looked fine." "High levels of insulin... it's the first domino to fall that leads to all these metabolic diseases. It starts with high blood pressure, you start gaining weight, and then it's pre-diabetes." "We have a slight advantage insofar as we have a menstrual cycle and we can check what's going on... I think that maybe we're a little more conscious of our health because we get these signs."

In this episode of The Accidental Landlord Podcast, host Peter McKenzie is joined by insurance expert Carl Bulloch to unpack one of the most stressful (and frustrating) parts of being a landlord in California - dealing with wildfire insurance claims. With the devastating January 2025 wildfires still fresh in everyone's mind, thousands of landlords are stuck in limbo, waiting on delayed payouts, battling claim denials, and facing rising premiums or non-renewals. Sound familiar? Carl brings firsthand expertise to help you make sense of it all - from what to look for in your policy, to dealing with stubborn insurance companies, to understanding why insurers are pulling out of California and what the FAIR Plan really offers. Whether you're mid-claim, underinsured, or just trying to stay ahead of the next disaster, this episode is packed with practical strategies to protect your investments and sanity.

Ever caught yourself thinking, "They should just know what I need"? Unspoken expectations are one of the biggest sources of frustration in relationships. When our partners don't automatically meet our needs, it can leave us feeling unheard, unloved, or even resentful. But here's the thing—expecting someone to read your mind rarely works.Join me, Marie Vakakis, and my guest, psychotherapist Tracy Proud, as we explore why we struggle to express our needs, how childhood experiences shape our relationship patterns, and what happens when we expect our partners to "just know."Key Takeaways:Many of our expectations in relationships are shaped by early experiences, often without us realising it.Assuming our partners should "just know" what we need can lead to frustration and resentment.Open, honest communication is essential for expressing needs and strengthening connection.Conflict isn't usually about the surface issue—there's often a deeper meaning behind it.Understanding each other's perspectives helps break unhealthy patterns and fosters emotional intimacy.Resources:The Gottman Institute – Research-backed insights into relationship dynamics.Growing Yourself Up by Dr. Jenny Brown – A key resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of themselves and their relationships through the lens of family systems theory.If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who might find it helpful.

Through his #HustleGPT challenge, he pioneered AI-driven business creation, leading to Future Works, which is driving next-gen digital transformation. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Matt Leta discuss:Building a structured and repeatable innovation processManaging innovation fatigue and resistance to changeThe role of leadership in fostering innovationThe difference between innovation, invention, and transformationIntegrating AI and digital transformation effectively Key Takeaways:Many innovation initiatives fail because organizations lack a structured process to turn ideas into tangible results.Employees at all levels hold valuable insights, and creating an inclusive process for idea generation increases engagement and buy-in.Innovation efforts should be consistent but not overwhelming, with structured participation, such as dedicating one hour per week, to maintain momentum without causing burnout.Successful innovation depends not just on generating ideas but also on securing leadership support, prioritizing the right initiatives, and effectively integrating changes into existing operations. "Saying ‘I'm too tired to innovate' is like saying, ‘I'm too tired to go to the gym.' Many people would be—but as a leader building a team—or a Team of Teams—do you… want your teams to have this fitness? You want them fit—to outcompete others. It's important today.” — Matt Leta Connect with Matt Leta:  Website: https://leta.bio/Email: matt@future.worksBook: https://leap.guideLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matleta/ Matt also shares free insights on innovation, AI, and digital transformation in his fast-growing newsletter (30K+ subscribers in a year).

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Kyle Harbaugh discuss:Challenges in law firm business operationsThe importance of business strategy in law firmsHiring and leadership in law firmsLeveraging AI and technology for growth Key Takeaways:Many attorneys excel in legal practice but struggle with business management because law school does not prepare them for running a firm, resulting in inefficiencies and unnecessary stress.Most law firms lack a clearly defined and well-communicated vision, leading to misalignment within their teams and making it harder to attract and retain the right talent.Hiring mistakes often stem from relying too much on gut instinct instead of structured assessments and long-term goal alignment, which leads to high turnover and poor culture fit.AI-driven tools can help law firms make smarter business decisions by identifying growth opportunities and ensuring new hires align with the firm's culture and objectives. "Just because they are very successful in one role, it doesn't mean they're going to be successful when you elevate them." —  Kyle Harbaugh Got a challenge growing your law practice?

Many buyers overlook one of the most valuable yet intangible assets that come with acquiring an online business. This episode features Ross Gerson, founder of DealSlide.com and a former broker at Empire Flippers. With extensive experience on both the buy and sell sides of online business acquisitions, Gerson shares key insights into the most frequent mistakes buyers and sellers make—and how to avoid them. The discussion covers several compelling topics, including Krause’s near-experience as a broker at Empire Flippers, a role Gerson had originally approached him for. Gerson also explains his transition into acquisition advising and consulting, detailing his work with WebStreet and his involvement in acquiring over 15 to 20 content sites. You will gain valuable insights into critical acquisition mistakes, such as the importance of direct communication with sellers, defining clear acquisition criteria, and navigating the transition period after a purchase. The conversation also highlights Deal Slide, Gerson’s marketplace that aggregates listings from over 20 brokers, streamlining the search process for buyers. Packed with expert advice, this episode guides anyone looking to buy or sell an online business, helping them maximize their acquisition strategy while setting themselves up for a successful exit. Let’s get started! Episode Highlights 03:00 Why Ross moved into online business acquisitions? 11:00 Ross learnings from being a broker at Empire Flippers 19:00 Get an extra from the deal! 25:00 Surprises in the seller's side 39:00 Where to find Ross? Key Takeaways ➥ Many buyers enter the market without a clear understanding of what type of business suits them best. Taking the time to assess personal skills, experience, and workload preference is crucial. ➥ New buyers often fear looking inexperienced, but embracing the learning process leads to better decision-making. ➥ Off-market deals are not always better. Broker-listed businesses provide structured deal flow and often undergo vetting, making them less risky. ➥ Some sellers don’t even realize their business can be sold, while others prioritize terms over the highest price. Understanding seller psychology can create win-win deal structures.

Learn how to follow our 4 stage process. https://growyourmathprogram.com Looking to supplement your curriculum with problem based lessons and units? Make Math Moments Problem Based Lessons & UnitsThis episode explores the concept of “expired math rules or math tricks”—rules, tricks, and shortcuts commonly taught in early mathematics that become problematic as students advance in their learning. Based on the article 13 Rules That Expire by Karen S. Karp, Sarah B. Bush, and Barbara J. Dougherty, the discussion highlights how overgeneralizing strategies, using imprecise vocabulary, and relying on procedural tricks can lead to misconceptions. The conversation emphasizes the importance of fostering deep mathematical understanding rather than rote memorization of rules that don't hold true in all contexts.Key Takeaways:Many tricks (e.g., “you can't subtract a bigger number from a smaller one”) work in early math but break down with more advanced concepts like negative numbers.Teaching why math works builds deeper understanding and helps students apply knowledge flexibly, rather than relying on rules that later fail.Imprecise wording (e.g., "always move the decimal when dividing") can cause confusion when students encounter different representations of numbers.Encouraging reasoning and sense-making allows students to adapt their thinking to new problems, rather than getting stuck when a memorized rule no longer applies.By recognizing these expired rules, educators can modify instruction to prioritize reasoning and problem-solving over rote tricks.Show NotesLove the show?

Nick welcomes Denis Mezheritskiy, founder and CEO of ROI Advisors, to delve into the intricate world of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). With over 21 years of experience in the field, Denis shares his journey from acquiring his first business in college to becoming a leading M&A broker specialising in companies with $1 million to $5 million in EBITDA. The conversation explores the current landscape of M&A, the importance of preparing businesses for sale, and the various buyer profiles, including corporate executives and small private equity firms. Denis emphasises the significance of understanding business valuation, the emotional aspects of selling, and the strategies to maximise company value. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many business owners are unaware of the true value of their companies. It's crucial to assess the business's financials, including EBITDA, and understand how factors like recurring revenue and operational stability can impact valuation. Preparing a business for sale involves more than just putting it on the market. Owners should focus on improving their business's fundamentals, such as financial reporting and management structure, to maximise its value and attract potential buyers. Sellers often have unrealistic expectations regarding the sale price of their businesses. It's essential to manage these expectations by providing a clear understanding of market conditions and realistic valuations based on historical performance. The market for business acquisitions includes various types of buyers, from corporate executives seeking to transition into entrepreneurship to small private equity firms. Understanding the motivations and capabilities of these buyers can help sellers position their businesses effectively. Selling a business can be an emotionally challenging process for owners, as it often ties into their identity and retirement plans. It's important for sellers to have a clear vision of their post-sale life and to prepare for the transition both financially and emotionally. BEST MOMENTS "I see a lot of videos on Instagram about those no money down deals, but I've had over 85 transactions and only two were no money deals, and they weren't great acquisitions." "There's a really fine line between the depth that you go into, so it doesn't become a waste of time." "If your business is not growing, then you're going downhill. I see this all the time, especially folks who are getting comfortable." "A high value business provides many options for you. One of those is selling for a lot of money, but there's more to it than that." "Most of the time, we're dragged into situations where sometimes it's too late, sometimes we don't have time to plan."

In this episode, Dr. Cari Wise poses the thought-provoking question, "Who are you mad at?" This inquiry serves as a catalyst for listeners to introspect on their feelings of frustration and anger, emotions that many may not consciously recognize they are harboring. Dr. Wise encourages her audience to reflect on whether they frequently experience irritation at work or find themselves rehashing negative interactions at home, especially concerning clients or coworkers.Dr. Wise underscores the significance of identifying the root causes of anger and frustration, as these emotions can lead to a relinquishing of personal power. For example, if a veterinary professional feels anger towards a client due to inappropriate behavior during an appointment, carrying that anger throughout the day can diminish their effectiveness in their role. Since individuals cannot control the actions of others, holding onto anger becomes counterproductive. Instead, Dr. Wise advocates for focusing on personal responses to such situations, emphasizing that individuals have control over their reactions.Dr. Wise elaborates on how anger can manifest in body language and tone, impacting interactions with clients and colleagues. She urges listeners to scrutinize their behaviors and conversations, particularly if they find themselves frequently venting about work-related issues. Such behavior often indicates unresolved anger that requires attention.Key Takeaways:Many veterinarians & veterinary technicians may not recognize their anger, which can manifest as frustration with clients, coworkers, or work conditions.Anger often arises from unmet expectations and the belief that situations should differ from the reality they are experiencing.The behaviors that stem from anger and frustration can create a toxic work environment, negatively affecting client and colleague interactions.Accepting current realities fosters a constructive approach to problem-solving and personal empowerment.Listeners are urged to reflect on their anger and shift focus from blame to personal agency and positive action.Resources: ⭐Get The Alternative Career Guide for Veterinary Professionals: Create A Career Tailored to You! https://joyfuldvm.com/jobguide ⭐Join VetMed;JOY CLUB: Elevate Your Life & Veterinary Career Experience https://joyfuldvm.com/joyclub ⭐Listen to The Joyful DVM Podcast: Be Inspired by Empowering Perspectives on Navigating Life as A Veterinary Professional https://joyfuldvm.com/podcast ⭐Join VET LIFE ACADEMY: Transform Your Veterinary Life & Career from the inside out https://joyfuldvm.com/vetlifeacademy ⭐Learn How to Support Your Organization and Enhance Employee Wellbeing https://joyfuldvm.com/organizations Follow me: Website: https://joyfuldvm.com Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/18257625/ Instagram: ...

Lyn welcomes transformational relationship coach Adriane Magidson to explore the intriguing topic of hidden relationship blocks. Adriane delves into the connection between our subconscious mind, energy, and emotions, explaining how hidden blocks can sabotage our relationship progress, even after extensive personal growth, and how we can uncover and remove them. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people may not be aware of the subconscious energy and emotional patterns that block their relationships from progressing/ being healthy, even after doing significant personal development work. The seven main chakras in the body represent different aspects of our emotional and energetic health. Blockages or misalignments at these energy points can negatively affect our relationships and personal well-being. Understanding how the masculine and feminine energy dynamic works is crucial in relationships. Couples may unintentionally exude energy that conflicts with their natural core energy, leading to unhealthy behaviours and attraction issues. True happiness and fulfilment comes from within (affirming - I am enough, I am worthy of love). Seeking external validation can lead to a never-ending cycle of dissatisfaction & resentment, while self-love/ acceptance fosters a sense of completeness. BEST MOMENTS "Our subconscious mind is connected to our energy, as well as connected to our emotions. Sometimes we don't know that that's still there." "If you're out of balance with your own natural tendency, that's what has a tendency to manifest." "Sometimes we can really feel we've done a hell of a lot of work on ourselves but we're still not getting the results that we hoped." "It's about letting go, surrendering and trusting. That's the most important aspect of it." ABOUT THE GUEST - Adriane Magidson - Transformational Relationship CoachAdriane is known for her ability to help high-achieving women break deep subconscious patterns, shift their energetic alignment, and create profound relationship breakthroughs.

As January comes to a close, Baylor reflects on personal growth and the enlightening moments that accompany life's journey. Set against the backdrop of a storm in Dallas, Baylor narrates how an interaction with his inquisitive dog led to a revelation about people's beliefs and the misconceptions we often hold about ourselves. Baylor focuses on debunking the myths we subconsciously live by, often shaped by others' opinions or our past experiences. Highlighting the importance of self-awareness, he challenges listeners to question the self-imposed limitations that hinder growth. Keywords such as "confidence," "self-perception," and "personal development" are woven through Baylor's narrative, emphasizing the message that true confidence stems from understanding and shaping one's beliefs. Empowering listeners to cultivate inner strength, Baylor explains that genuine confidence arises from freedom of thought and the ability to form one's own opinions. Encouraging proactive thinking, he details how confidence is central to personal and professional success. Baylor's new book, "No One Prays for the Lion: Cultivating Confidence in a Wilderness of Doubt," serves as a guide to unleashing unshakable confidence and executing life goals with certainty. Key Takeaways: Many beliefs about self-capacity and potential are shaped by misinformation or societal expectations. Confidence involves questioning established beliefs and being open to growth. Developing a personal blueprint for confidence is essential to attain freedom of thought and decision-making. Collaborative confidence within teams fosters diverse problem-solving perspectives. Embracing newfound knowledge and experience allows for personal evolution and greater self-assurance. Notable Quotes: "Confidence is about having freedom of thought so that you can have freedom of choice." "You've grown up. You've learned a lot. You can do it now." "Confident individuals, confident teams create solutions to big problems." "Maybe we are capable of a lot more than we've given ourselves to because we fall victim to those lies." "I want a more confident you."

The pursuit of healing can often lead to alternative medicine, functional health, and innovative ventures that inspire others to embrace holistic approaches to well-being.Individual differences in metabolic types significantly influence how people react to foods and other factors. Understanding personal physiology is essential for tailoring our health strategies and improving overall well-being.Understanding your metabolic type (sympathetic or parasympathetic dominant) and endocrine dominance (thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, or ovarian) can help tailor your diet to optimize energy, mood, and wellness. For example, a thyroid-dominant individual may thrive on a carb-centric breakfast, while an adrenal-dominant person benefits from a breakfast high in fats and proteins.While diet and lifestyle adjustments can align with specific body aesthetics, prioritizing metabolic balance and emotional well-being over appearances leads to sustainable wellness and reduced cravings.QUOTES: [7:12] “The medical system is not using the scientific method.

In this episode, Dr. Cari Wise emphasizes the importance of shedding the victim identity, a mindset that many professionals may not consciously recognize they embody.Veterinary medicine is inherently chaotic and unpredictable, which can lead to significant frustration when attempts to exert control over daily events fail. Professionals often find themselves overwhelmed by factors beyond their control, including client behavior, patient responses, and equipment malfunctions. This struggle for control can cultivate a victim mentality, where individuals believe their happiness is dependent on external circumstances. Dr. Wise stresses that while individuals have the power to create their own wellbeing, they cannot dictate the actions of others or the situations they encounter.The tendency to vent frustrations among colleagues is a coping mechanism that can perpetuate a victim mentality. While sharing negative experiences may offer temporary relief, it ultimately reinforces a cycle of blame and frustration. This collective commiseration distracts from personal empowerment and the potential for positive change within the profession. Dr. Wise argues that as long as veterinary professionals attribute their happiness to external circumstances, they will remain disempowered.Key Takeaways:Many professionals adopt a victim mentality due to the chaotic work environment.Frustration stems from the disparity between expectations and reality, leading to feelings of victimization.External factors, such as client behavior and unexpected patient outcomes, contribute to frustration and powerlessness.Believing happiness depends on external circumstances reinforces the victim mindset.Venting among colleagues offers temporary relief but perpetuates negativity and disempowerment.New veterinarians should avoid comparing themselves to experienced colleagues and allow time for personal growth.Listeners are urged to identify external blame for unhappiness and recognize their choice in adopting a victim identity.Resources: ⭐Get The Alternative Career Guide for Veterinary Professionals: Create A Career Tailored to You! https://joyfuldvm.com/jobguide ⭐Join VetMed;JOY CLUB: Elevate Your Life & Veterinary Career Experience https://joyfuldvm.com/joyclub ⭐Listen to The Joyful DVM Podcast: Be Inspired by Empowering Perspectives on Navigating Life as A Veterinary Professional https://joyfuldvm.com/podcast ⭐Join VET LIFE ACADEMY: Transform Your Veterinary Life & Career from the inside out https://joyfuldvm.com/vetlifeacademy ⭐Learn How to Support Your Organization and Enhance Employee Wellbeing https://joyfuldvm.com/organizations Follow me: Website: https://joyfuldvm.com Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/18257625/ Instagram: ...

Lyn welcomes love and divorce coach Cindy Stibbard to discuss the challenging journey of thriving after loss and divorce. Cindy shares her personal experiences, highlighting the often-overlooked emotional turmoil that precedes the decision to end a marriage. She emphasises the importance of understanding the seven stages of separation, which mirror the stages of grief, and how people can best navigate their feelings during this tumultuous time. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals, especially women, find themselves in a prolonged state of contemplation before deciding to divorce. This period can last for years as they grapple with feelings of indecision, the complexities of their relationship and the impact on those that will be affected. Acceptance of Change: It's important to recognise that all relationships evolve over time. Just because a relationship was once fulfilling doesn't mean it will remain so. Accept that it can be okay for a relationship to end and that it's all part of personal growth and a time for new beginnings. Separation can be likened to the 7 stages of grief - shock, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance/ hope & processing. Understanding these stages can encourage compassion between partners, as they may be at different points on this emotional journey. Having a clear plan and understanding of what life could look like post-divorce can empower individuals to make informed decisions about their future, whether that means staying in the marriage or planning an exit. BEST MOMENTS "A marriage erodes over time. It doesn't break overnight. For the person who's contemplating leaving, this decision is a long time coming." "I spent literally a couple of years contemplating... even though I was feeling unfulfilled and I didn't even understand why." "If you are unhappy in your relationship, chances are your partner is too. It just takes one person to be brave enough to admit it." "There is no prize for living an unlived life. Live like you know that this is a finite amount of time."

Angela talks once more to bestselling author, Brian Keane about his new book, "Rewriting Your Story," which explores the seven habits that help individuals reclaim their power and overcome limiting beliefs. The conversation highlights the importance of recognising and questioning the narratives that hold us back, particularly in the realms of health, relationships, and success. Brian shares insights from his own experiences, including his extreme physical challenges like climbing Kilimanjaro and running through the Arctic, emphasizing how fear can be harnessed as a tool for growth KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people struggle with self-sabotaging beliefs that can be addressed through awareness and questioning of these limiting stories. Effective productivity is more about managing energy than managing time. Identifying priorities and values allows for better decision-making regarding what to say yes or no to, leading to a more balanced and fulfilling life. Fear is a natural part of life and can be harnessed rather than eliminated. Learning to manage fear and using it as feedback can lead to personal growth and the ability to take on challenges, such as physical feats or significant life changes. The tendency to compare oneself to others can be detrimental. It's crucial to recognise that everyone has their own journey and to also compare oneself to those who are further behind to cultivate gratitude and perspective. BEST MOMENTS "Sometimes you have to actually be microly imbalanced... as long as those things don't become chronic." "Fear is something that you would eventually go away if you did enough things. What I didn't know was the fear never goes away." "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." "The awareness in the first step towards any positive change is awareness around you've done it."

What if you are already good enough, just the way you are?In today's episode, Elizabeth Mintun delves into a profound truth: that we don't need to be fixed. She suggests that the struggles we experience are adaptations to our own unique nature and life experiences, rather than evidence of our brokenness. Elizabeth uncovers the top 5 reasons she has found that people are unkind to themselves, offers research-backed perspectives, and shares practical ways to cultivate kindness and self-compassion. Key Takeaways: Many people fear self-compassion will reduce motivation. Because so many of our negative and harsh self-talk is automatic, we may not even realize when we're doing it. Lack of self-awareness can create barriers to moving towards greater self-acceptance.

In this episode, Dawn welcomes Brian Reeves, an internationally renowned author and coach focused on helping men improve their lives and relationships. Brian shares his transformative journey from a U.S. Air Force captain to a leader in men's personal growth, discussing the challenges of disconnection and the importance of emotional safety in relationships. They discuss the struggles men face in expressing their emotions, the impact of generational trauma, and the need for deeper connections. Brian emphasizes the significance of radical responsibility and the journey toward understanding real love, which he defines as a ferocious and discerning force that maintains boundaries while fostering connection.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many men experience a profound disconnection from their emotions and bodies, often leading to feelings of numbness and existential crises. This disconnection can stem from societal conditioning that teaches men to suppress their feelings, resulting in challenges in intimate relationships. Emotional safety is crucial for both men and women in relationships. Men often underestimate the importance of creating a safe space for their partners to express themselves, which can lead to feelings of insecurity and disconnection. Engaging with other men in group settings can help individuals realize they are not alone in their struggles. Hearing others' stories fosters a sense of connection and can soften defenses, making it easier to explore deeper emotional issues. Taking responsibility for one's actions and their impact on relationships is essential for personal growth. Many men initially resist this idea, often blaming external factors for their relationship issues, but true progress comes from acknowledging and owning their role in the dynamics. Relationships require a delicate balance between emotional connection and personal freedom. Both partners must actively work to support each other's needs, recognizing that while love can be nurturing, it also requires boundaries and discernment to maintain a healthy dynamic. BEST MOMENTS "I had a bit of a nervous breakdown, like 30 days into that journey in North Wales, because I didn't know who I was anymore." "My father has a couple of brothers and they're all just, they're a wreck in my judgment. You know, as men, they're just, they're just not men I've ever been able to look up to." "The psychologist Terry Reel, he says, the original wound in men is disconnection. We're taught early to disconnect from our feelings, from our emotions, from what's really going on inside of us. And so then naturally we're going to turn into adults who don't know how to connect." "Do you think that woman has ever in her lifetime felt really safe to say no? Not just with you, but with every other man and every other scenario."

This changed my world in ways I could not have imagined and it has changed the lives of hundreds of my clients too.  Drawing from personal experiences and client stories, Paul reveals how this childlike aspect of our psyche can dominate our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, often leading to feelings of anxiety, procrastination, and self-sabotage.

You can reach Paul, find his podcasts and join the Mindset Change WhatsApp community via the link below  Contact and social links below:https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals unknowingly allow their child ego state to dominate their lives, leading to feelings of powerlessness and impulsive behaviours. Recognising this influence is crucial for personal growth. The child ego state often triggers emotional responses rooted in fear and limiting beliefs, which can manifest as anxiety, procrastination, and self-sabotage. Identifying these triggers can help in regaining control. Developing awareness of the child ego state and approaching it with compassion can facilitate healing and transformation. This involves acknowledging the feelings and thoughts associated with the child ego and inviting it to rest. Utilising breathing techniques can help calm the emotional and survival brain, allowing for a clearer perspective and the ability to respond rather than react to situations dominated by the child ego. BEST MOMENTS "When I discovered this message a good few years ago, it was like a big wet fish, bam, had been slapped around my face to wake me up to what I had been doing." "You are a smart person, right? You have a good level of common sense most of the time. But have a think for a moment about an area of your life where you are struggling." "Every time your child ego state dominates you, it's reminding you that on a deeper level there is a voice that wants to be heard." "Think of your ego as an energy pattern. You are energy and this energy pattern is part of you."

Lyn delves into the topic of emotional walls and the impact of past trauma/ heartbreak on our ability to love and connect with others more deeply. She explores the reasons behind why we become guarded in relationships, emphasising the importance of healing from heartbreak and trauma, including sexual abuse. Lyn encourages listeners to recognise their worth beyond their experiences and to embark on a self-help journey that fosters inner strength, resilience and open heartedness. By reclaiming their power and trusting in the Universe/ Creator/ God (whatever their belief) to deliver justice on those who have caused them pain, individuals can begin to lower their walls and feel free to embrace a life filled with love and authenticity.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals build emotional walls due to past heartbreaks or trauma, which can hinder their ability to form deep loving relationships and feel fulfilled. Emphasising the importance of self-love, listeners are encouraged to recognise their worth beyond their experiences and to focus on healing from within. Living in fear allows past perpetrators to maintain power over us. Recognising this can help us reclaim our personal power and live a happier more liberated life. Trusting that the Universe/ God/ Higher Power will deliver justice to those who have caused us harm, provides us with a sense of freedom and allow individuals to heal and move forward without being burdened by vengeful thoughts or remaining stuck in victimhood due to past traumas. A Japanese quote - translates and highlights the idea that while 'the brave may face risks, those who are overly cautious may never truly live'. Embracing life despite it's challenges is essential for personal growth, happiness and fulfillment. BEST MOMENTS "Why do we have our guard up when it comes to love and romance? It's down to the fact that we've had previous relationships where we've been really hurt and heartbroken." "You are more than your body. You're a survivor. You will get stronger. You are magnificent. You are worthy. You are loved." "If we allow our perpetrators to make us live in fear, we're disempowering ourselves." "The Universe, Higher Power, God, whatever your belief, will meter out its own justice to the people that have done us wrong." "The brave may die but the cautious don't live. Do you want to live a life where you're not actually living and you're just existing?" ABOUT THE HOST Lyn Smith – (The Queen of HEARTS) – Love, Dating & Relationship Expert Lyn's personal story is a very inspirational and harrowing one of how she went from having unhealthy and unfulfilling relationships with men (on the back of several serious traumatic sexual assaults in her teens) to now being in a soul fulfilling relationship which makes her feel alive, is full of passion and gives her inner peace.

In this episode Dawn welcomes Lorna Gale, a sex and spirit alchemist, to explore the complexities of sexuality, intimacy, and personal empowerment. Lorna shares her journey of awakening to her sexuality after years of disconnection, emphasizing the importance of consent and the need for open conversations about sex. They both delve into the societal conditioning that shapes our understanding of gender roles, the impact of trauma on sexual expression, and the necessity of reconnecting with our bodies and emotions.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals grow up with limited or inadequate sexual education, leading to feelings of shame and disconnection from their own bodies and sexuality. Consent is a foundational aspect of healthy relationships and sexual experiences. It is crucial to establish a sense of consent that empowers individuals to express their needs and desires without feeling obligated to please others at the expense of their own comfort. Individuals can experience a sexual awakening at any stage in life, which can lead to a deeper understanding of their bodies and desires. Both men and women possess masculine and feminine energies that can be integrated for healthier relationships. Many people carry trauma related to their sexuality, which can manifest in various ways, including feelings of shame and disconnection. Addressing and healing from these traumas is essential for individuals to reconnect with their true selves and experience intimacy in a fulfilling way.   BEST MOMENTS "It's not about giving women power, it's about recognizing the power that's all" "There's yang masculine and yang yin masculine. that yang masculine, or the yin feminine, is that flow, that nurturing, that creativity." "I feel like because we are conditioned to just live up in our head, so we have this disconnection from our body, we have this disconnection from our emotions" ABOUT THE HOST Dawn Rishárd, M.A. with 20 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Marriage and Family Systems, I empower people to release the past, open their hearts, and receive the love they desire.

Simon looks into the common concern many aspiring property investors face: why would someone lend them money? Simon explains that successful investors often rely on other people's money after exhausting their own resources, and encourages you to rethink your approach to asking for funds, suggesting you position yourself as offering an opportunity for profit rather than begging KEY TAKEAWAYS Many successful property investors eventually run out of their own cash and must rely on other people's money. This can include traditional financing methods like mortgages, credit cards, or overdrafts, which are all forms of using someone else's funds. Instead of approaching potential lenders with a mindset of begging for money, consider positioning the conversation as an opportunity to share profits. This shift in perspective can make the interaction feel more positive and collaborative. Avoid making assumptions about who has money or who would be willing to lend it. People may have financial resources that you are unaware of, and it's important to communicate your investment opportunities to those in your network. When seeking loans, it's crucial to establish trust with potential lenders. They are more likely to lend money if they believe in your ability to generate returns and repay the loan. Educating yourself about property investing can enhance your credibility. BEST MOMENTS "I want to change the way you look at this. I want to change your belief because the reality is most successful investors... generally run out of their own cash and they have to use other people's money." "Imagine you're going to people and saying, who do you know who might want to share some of my profit? That is a totally different positioning." "If you don't tell them about your property investing... you're stealing the opportunity of them making money because you're not even telling them about the opportunity." "When someone lends you money, they're lending it to you because they like you and they trust you and they believe you that you're going to give them a great return." "When you learn how to find good deals, you don't need to use your own money. There are plenty of other people out there who will fund those deals for you."

Paul welcomes top coach Tahira to discuss the common struggles faced by women in midlife, including feelings of lost confidence, low self-worth, and the challenges of navigating life transitions.

You can reach Paul, find his podcasts and join the Mindset Change WhatsApp community via the link below  Contact and social links below:https://mindsetchangeuk.com/useful-links  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many women experience feelings of lost confidence, low self-worth, and confusion during midlife, often triggered by life transitions, hormonal changes, and a reevaluation of personal and professional roles. Self-Leadership and Responsibility: Taking 100% responsibility for one's life and decisions is crucial. Individuals often fall into a victim mindset, blaming others for their circumstances instead of recognizing their own power to change. Awareness of Thoughts: Becoming aware of "should" statements and self-judgment is the first step toward personal growth. By questioning these thoughts without judgment, individuals can begin to understand their true desires and motivations. BEST MOMENTS "Being a woman in midlife means I know of a fair few women in midlife... there's a kind of sense of more sense of identity that comes up." "A lot of it is very quite simply, it starts off with they say, I feel like I've lost my confidence." "When you first start to notice those thoughts, you're going to be alarmed by the frequency with which they come up." "Stop trying to fix yourself and start living. Just start living."

Rob looks at eight renewable energy ideas for homes, while critically examining the practicality of each suggestion. Drawing from an article by The Eco Expert, he highlights the disconnect between eco-friendly initiatives and the realities faced by homeowners, particularly in urban settings.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many renewable energy ideas, such as solar panels and heat pumps, may not be practical for the majority of homeowners, especially those living in urban or terraced houses without suitable roof space or insulation. The installation costs of renewable energy systems can be significant, and not everyone has the financial means readily available to invest in these technologies. Technologies like domestic wind turbines and biomass heating systems may only be feasible in rural areas or for those with specific property types, making them unsuitable for most urban residents. There is a concern that eco companies may promote renewable energy solutions that are not universally applicable, potentially driven by government subsidies rather than genuine practicality for the average homeowner. BEST MOMENTS "The information that they're pushing out, and then the reality of this, or the reality of the implementation, are two different things." "If you don't have the right roof or pointing in the right direction, it can be quite difficult and not everyone is going to have X amount of pounds just sat in the bank." "If your other insulation measures aren't up to scratch, i.e. you live in an old home, it's got solid walls, there's no insulation on them, then you are very likely not going to benefit from having a heat pump." "You try installing a domestic wind turbine in a set of mid-terrace properties. I imagine that is not going to help at all."

In this episode, Ryan Staley flips the script and is the one who is being interviewed and engages in a thought-provoking conversation about the challenges and strategies of growing a VC-backed company without external investment. Ryan shares insights from his extensive experience in sales and leadership, discussing common pitfalls that CEOs encounter, such as focusing too heavily on product development at the expense of go-to-market strategies. The episode also delves into the transformative impact of AI on business operations, highlighting the importance of integrating AI tools effectively within teams to enhance productivity and efficiency. Join 2,500+ readers getting weekly practical guidance to scale themselves and their companies using Artificial Intelligence and Revenue Cheat Codes.   Explore becoming Superhuman here: https://superhumanrevenue.beehiiv.com/   KEY TAKEAWAYS Many leaders, particularly product-focused ones, can become so engrossed in their products that they neglect essential aspects like go-to-market strategies and customer distribution. Companies often overlook the value of their existing customers. Focusing on upselling and cross-selling to current clients can be more cost-effective than acquiring new customers. The rapid advancement of AI technologies presents both opportunities and challenges. Companies need to embrace AI tools and integrate them into their operations to enhance productivity and efficiency, rather than waiting for proven ROI. When hiring, especially for leadership roles, it's crucial to assess the company culture and ensure that candidates understand the realities of the organization. Small execution details can significantly impact a company's success. Leaders should focus on refining processes and ensuring that all team members are aligned and aware of their roles to avoid operational inefficiencies.   BEST MOMENTS "Your biggest strengths become your biggest blind spots... I've had product leaders that are so obsessed about the product that they ignore the go-to-market side." "I was so focused on ramping up because that was hardwired into me as a revenue leader that that's what I needed to do." "The cost of acquiring a new logo is far greater than the cost of generating more revenue from your existing customers." "Most people are not ready for it... they try it for five, 10 minutes and it sucks. And then they don't try it again." "You have to understand where they're at, contextualize that, because if you're talking to someone like they're a $30 million company, and they're a $1 million company, their eyes are going to glaze over."   Ryan Staley Founder and CEO Whale Boss ryan@whalesellingsystem.com www.ryanstaley.io  Saas, Saas growth, Scale, Business Growth, B2b Saas, Saas Sales, Enterprise Saas, Business growth strategy, founder, ceo: https://www.whalesellingsystem.com/closingsecrets

In this episode, Clare is joined by Isabel Mislinay a business coach who specializes in the area of real estate. Thirty-seven years ago, she left an incredibly comfortable life in Ecuador to chase love and moved to Los Angeles.

There are still a lot of opportunities available to anyone who lives in the USA. When you are given the chance to learn new skills take that opportunity.  Learning the language is essential if you want to blend in and not be forever seen as an immigrant. When learning a new language try listening to music and memorising the lyrics. Live as bountifully as you can. Genuinely appreciate and celebrate every positive thing about your life e.g. having the freedom to practice your chosen religion. Every person you meet gives you the chance to experience something new and outside of your universe. The USA is so big that each state is unique to the point where moving states actually can feel like you are moving countries.   BEST MOMENTS “When I came here it seemed like I needed to put myself in a box to fit, but I refused to do that.” “People have more access to education here, and that's what opens the opportunity to have the American dream.” “If Ecuador plays with the USA at soccer, I love that team from Ecuador, but I'm rooting for the USA.” “I am basically a citizen of the world…I am definitely open to exploring more countries.” ABOUT THE HOST: Clare Kay is a seasoned global traveller and professional with a rich background in international sales, customer service, and personal development.

Simon is joined by Suzi Carter, a chartered surveyor with over 30 years of experience in commercial property. Suzi shares her transition from the corporate world to becoming a successful residential and commercial investor after joining a Mastermind program. The conversation delves into the differences between commercial and residential property investing, highlighting the unique advantages of commercial real estate, such as longer leases and the ability to add value through creative strategies.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many individuals with a corporate background may struggle to adapt to the entrepreneurial mindset required for property investment. Gaining the right mindset and knowledge is crucial for success in this field. Commercial properties are valued based on their income potential, using a multiplier on the rent. This allows investors to add value through strategic actions, such as securing tenants or extending leases, rather than relying solely on extensive refurbishments. The commercial property market is heavily influenced by supply and demand. Identifying areas with high demand and limited supply can lead to better investment opportunities, even in sectors that may seem less favourable, like retail. When investing in commercial property, it's essential to consider various exit strategies. This includes potential conversions to residential use or splitting properties into smaller units, which can enhance value and reduce risk. A significant portion of commercial property deals occur off-market, making it vital to build relationships with commercial agents. Additionally, using pension funds, such as a SAS, can provide tax advantages and facilitate property purchases. BEST MOMENTS "I don't think there's anything in any shape or form in the corporate world that prepares you for being an entrepreneur." "The skill in terms of knowing what kind of property to buy, where to buy it and what to do with it is kind of where the magic lies, really." "The biggest tip I can give people is that the commercial market more than really any market is about supply and demand." "If you're using a bit of knowledge and a bit of expertise, you can actually add massive value without spending a lot of money sometimes." "Start with the end in mind, so work out where you want to get to and why you want to get there."

She shares her personal experiences as both a working and stay-at-home mother, highlighting the emotional and financial pressures that often compel mothers to continue working despite the challenges of childcare and career interruptions. Dr. Dunni emphasizes the importance of creating harmony between work and home life, rather than striving for a strict balance, and encourages mothers to harness the energy derived from their love for their children to fuel their professional growth.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Many mothers face the challenge of balancing their careers and motherhood, often feeling overwhelmed and drained as they try to juggle both responsibilities. The rising cost of living has made it necessary for many families to have dual incomes, which can force mothers to continue working even if they would prefer to stay at home. Childcare can be expensive and complicated, with situations where mothers still have to pay for services even when their children are unable to attend due to illness. Instead of striving for a strict balance between work and home life, mothers should aim for harmony, where both aspects complement each other and allow for personal and professional growth. Practicing gratitude for both home and work life can help mothers maintain a positive mindset, enabling them to see challenges as opportunities for growth and learning rather than setbacks. BEST MOMENTS "Finances have become a hot topic in our day and age, especially with the rising cost of living. In those days, it was a situation whereby one person went to work And with that salary, you could feed the entire family. Now, you need two people working to be able to take care of food, clothing, shelter, basic necessities of life."  "Delay is not denial." "Harmony comes when you take the energy that you build up from the love that you shower on yourself and your child and the people around you. And you use that generated energy to fuel your passion, your job, your career, your business, your work." "Tapping into the gratitude of whatever situation you're in allows you to see things differently."

In this episode, The Annuity Man and Sheryl Garrett discuss:  The role of a financial planner  How the industry should be  Hiring the right planner  Being aggressive with cash flow   Key Takeaways:  Many personal, financial, economic, and psychological things are coming together all at once. The planner's role is to help clients see through all of that and reach out to the appropriate specialist when they need certain products or services fulfilled for the clients. Everybody has questions about their personal finances. People in the industry should be working towards making it easier for people to understand finances.  Don't hire anybody with disciplinary issues on their records. There are plenty of people to pick that don't have any on the record. Make sure the person you're talking to is working as a fiduciary.  We need to be aggressive about our cash flow. Aggressive, conscious of where our money is going, where it's coming from, and how it will move in the future.    "We've been trained to go get a second opinion if we have a significant medical issue come up, but why in the world do we not get a second opinion if we're getting ready to make a decision as significant as retirement." —  Sheryl Garrett.       Connect with Sheryl Garrett: Website: https://garrettinvestmentadvisors.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sherylgarrett/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/SherylGarrett    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

This week, your host, Dan Neumann, is joined by an external guest: Kristen Belcher, a Software Developer turned Agile Coach. In this episode, they discuss liberating structures, simple and subtle tools that can help everyone attending a group event contribute and be included. They dive deep into some of the Liberating Structures, such as 1-2-4-All, Drawing Together, Purpose-to-Practice, and TRIZ. Listen to this thoughtful conversation and get ready to apply some of these practices to the next event you facilitate.   Key Takeaways Many structures we use with groups, like presentations, status reports, and even tight discussions, tend to fail because they don't have space for all the participants' voices or allow members to think “outside the box.” Sometimes, there is even no structure at all. Liberating structures are the tools that liberate everyone in the conversation to contribute and be included. We all have different participation styles: thinkers, talkers, and quiet ones. We all communicate in unique manners, and our input is equally valuable. There are 33 liberating structures. One Liberating Structure is 1-2-4-All. You can apply it starting with 1: People have time to think on their own. Then 2: They pair up and discuss with another person. Then 4: The pairs will pair, generating themes and sharing what they learn. Finally, All: Where everybody can share their ideas. Even though everyone won't be allowed to speak to the large group, they had the chance to contribute in the previous instances. Another Liberating Structure is called Drawing Together. Everyone needs to draw a picture using the same shapes (no artistic ability is required). Every shape has a significance: Circles stand for wholeness, rectangles represent support, triangles represent goals, spirals represent changes, and the stick or star persons represent relationships. The group interprets a picture, and these views are the kickstart for a discussion. Purpose-to-Practice is a tool for identifying our main purpose and rooting the members together. It helps realize who must be included to achieve a shared purpose. TRIZ is the liberating structure created to assess the absolute worst scenario that can happen. When choosing a liberating structure, you must match it with the problem you are trying to solve in a group. First, you need to frame the problem to find the right tool to approach it. It's a good idea to have a Plan A and a Plan B for facilitation. How can you start applying Liberating Structures? When approaching liberating structures, you will first learn what they are for, then how to approach the space, how people participate, groups, and the sequence of steps to be followed. The material also provides time allocations. You will receive minimum specifications of how the liberating structures are set up. There is no specific script about how you should facilitate. Be comfortable doing something uncomfortable and new.   Mentioned in this Episode: LiberatingStructures.com Download the Liberating Structures App The Art of Gathering, by Priya Parker The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth, by Amy C.

Success in healthcare is not measured solely in patient numbers but in the positive impact, we make on the communities we serve. In our world, not everyone has the same chance to be healthy. Some people face obstacles that make it harder for them to access good healthcare and live a healthy life. Certain groups of people have their health at risk due to unfair barriers and unequal opportunities, making it difficult for them to afford their needed medicine.   Moreover, it is vital to realize that health injustice happens to many people not because they don't care about their health but because of specific reasons including the place they were born, their income, or even the color of their skin. Hence, to fix these problems, we must work towards a healthcare system that goes beyond just treating illnesses but also addresses the root causes of health inequalities. Therefore, at the end of the day, healthcare is a right and not a privilege determined by one's background or circumstances.   Dr. Omolara Uwemedimo is a healthcare founder, social entrepreneurship coach, healthcare practice funding consultant, and growth strategist for women of color in healthcare. Her career as a pediatrician spans almost 2 decades and includes her work as a public health researcher & professor for over a decade.

Dr. Omolara co-founded Strong Children Wellness which provides integrated physical health, mental health, and social services for minoritized, low-income children and families. She founded Melanin & Medicine which helps mission-driven practices secure capital without incurring debt or diluting equity. Dr. Uwemedimo is an expert in purpose-led entrepreneurship, securing funding for healthcare, addressing medical racism for marginalized providers and patients, and building socially responsive healthcare spaces.   In this special episode with Dr. Omolara Uwemedimo, we will learn about the journey of a remarkable woman who has not only embraced diverse roles in healthcare but has also pioneered innovative approaches to address the needs of the underserved. The conversation highlights her dedication to healthcare, her global perspective, and her commitment to health equity and justice. She also shares insights about the challenges faced by under-resourced communities and how we can collaborate across various sectors to create meaningful and sustainable change.

Medicine is indeed a noble profession, one that transcends the boundaries of science and reaches into the depths of human compassion. Physicians are not merely practitioners of medicine; they are healers, caregivers, and advocates for the well-being of their patients.  It requires years of intense study, training, and examination. But becoming a doctor is just the start. After medical school and residency, physicians continue learning and developing throughout their careers, exploring new paths and discovering more about themselves along the way.   Doctors need to be strong and flexible to do well in a healthcare world that's always changing and often confusing. They have to face problems with bravery, keep going even when things don't work out, ask for help when they need it, and understand that changing jobs is normal in healthcare. This helps them become even better at what they do. Therefore, doctors must possess not only clinical expertise but also resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace change.    Amy Vertrees MD is a General Surgeon, Surgeon Coach, Author of "Become the BOSS MD", Keynote speaker, and Founder of BOSS Business of Surgery Series. With a deep understanding of the challenges physicians face beyond the operating room, Dr. Amy is dedicated to empowering her peers to take control of their careers and thrive. Drawing from her own journey and years of expertise, she understands that residency training only scratches the surface of what it takes to succeed in the medical field. It became her mission to guide fellow physicians toward becoming the BOSS MD they aspire to be. Her approach is not just about surviving in medicine but thriving—with Dr. Amy's guidance, physicians can regain autonomy, find balance, and rediscover the joy in their profession.   In this episode, I will share with you an interview I had with the Business of Surgery Series podcast with Doctor Amy Vertrees. Some of the key themes that emerged from our discussion were the importance of adaptability and resilience in the face of unexpected changes, the emotional toll of job loss and career transitions in medicine, and the art of physician contract negotiation. We also talked about the intricacies of navigating career transitions in the medical field, drawing from my own experiences and insights gained over the years. Tune in to learn how to thrive amidst uncertainty and change.   "What we have to learn in practice is how to run and build a practice.

"Success is not reaching the top of the mountain; it's the passion of each step climbed, the resilience shown in the face of adversity, and the growth experienced with every stumble." In seasons of achievements and successes, some of us fail to take a pause and appreciate our triumph. We become so fixated on reaching the pinnacle of our ambitions that we overlook the beauty of the journey itself—the trials, the triumphs, and the transformations that occur along the way. No wonder many of us find ourselves feeling unfulfilled even after reaching our goals. Because when we fail to recognize the value of the journey, we rob ourselves of the opportunity to fully appreciate our achievements.   Therefore, we must realize that the true beauty of achievement lies not in the attainment of a goal, but in the transformation that occurs within ourselves as we strive towards it. We are often advised to focus on the goal but I want to encourage you to focus more on the journey. To appreciate our progress of being better in what we do. To continue pursuing a goal despite having no one to give you a round of applause or a tap on the back. Take full advantage of every opportunity to succeed and know that no matter what your level of success is, you will always be enough. Hence, as we continue on our respective paths, let us embrace the journey, celebrate our successes, and strive for even greater heights.   In this solo episode, I will share with you my realizations in this graduation season, reflecting on the significance of milestones, the journey beyond them, and how we can navigate life's transitions with purpose and gratitude. I want you to take a moment to appreciate the success and its genuine sense, since many of us fail to acknowledge our progress in our pursuit to achieve every goal we have on our checklists. Buckle up and discover the hidden gems within the journey towards our dreams.   "Many times, in life, we don't take the time to appreciate what we've accomplished or what we achieved." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   Topics Covered: (00:00:48) The Graduation Season (00:01:39) Appreciate your progress (00:03:54) How do you nurture your gift?

Some moms leave the workforce because they have to choose between working and breastfeeding. Don't get discouraged or down on yourself if breastfeeding doesn't work for you. It is difficult, expensive and time-consuming. Don't let social media force you into something you don't want.  MilkMate is a service that allows working moms to continue working safely and privately while breastfeeding their babies.

Her mission in creating MilkMate is simple: She wants to support and empower working moms everywhere – and it starts with her turnkey breast pumping solution purpose-built for workplace wellness rooms.   During her time representing landlords throughout Manhattan, Patrice experienced the rise of health and wellness initiatives in the workplace and began helping employers and landlords design wellness areas to comply with new laws requiring dedicated space for breast pumping. All the while, she chose to breastfeed her four children and continued to do so even after she returned to work from maternity leave. It didn't take her long to realize that the process surrounding breast pumping at work was inefficient and inconvenient. She knew there had to be a better way.   In 2020, Patrice left her commercial real estate job to start MilkMate so that no mother would ever have to choose between her family and career due to the challenges of breast pumping in the place of work.
