UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1068789107USA: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1068789107 When navigating a divorce it is crucial that you find ways to reduce your stress as much as possible. One of the biggest creators of stress in our lives is often our jobs, that's why, this week on the show, Ang is looking at the benefits of flexible working for single parents. The stress a divorce places on your working life is huge, from suddenly needing to be financially independent to having to change your timetable, therefore it is crucial that you find a job that works for you. From the different models of flexible working to dealing with your employer, Ang covers it all in this episode so that you can find a job that works for you and creates one less thing to worry about.    KEY TAKEAWAYS Some employers are opposed to flexible working but they are missing out on a whole host of benefits. Ang details the advantages, for both employees and employers, that flexible working provides.  Whilst flexible working can be a good thing for you and your employer, there are also your co-workers to consider. Ang outlines a few ways flexible working might affect your colleagues and what you can do to mitigate any negative effects.  Flexible working doesn't just mean one thing. Ang breaks down the different models of flexible working to give you an understanding of which one might work best for you.  Despite the benefits of flexible working, your employer just might not be open to the idea. In this case it may be time to look for a new job. Ang gives you a list of things you should consider when looking for a new role. BEST MOMENTS “Flexible working allows employers to save costs on office space and employees to save costs on commuting.” “Before you ask your employer what you need from flexible working, think about the impact to yourself and others and how you can reduce any negative effects.” “When you're going through a divorce everything you can do to relieve pressure is only going to help you. Finding a job that works for you is one of the best ways to reduce unnecessary pressure.”   EPISODE LINKS To Join the Priority List for the new book Do I Really H*te Men? - click this link https://www.inspiredbybooks.co.uk/do-i-really-hate-men To Join The Divorce and Single Parent Club https://patreon.com/user?u=114049946&utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink https://linktr.ee/angaab6 www.linkedin.com/in/angallanburns To receive a FREE copy of my Divorce Success or my Parenting Success Tips - please e-mail me at Ang@doireallyhatemen.com   ABOUT THE HOST Ang is first and foremost a very proud Mum.

Ash and Kane discuss creative and unconventional ways to monetise your podcast beyond traditional approaches such as sponsorships and affiliates. From using content for investment opportunities to offering exclusive access to back catalogues they outline six innovative strategies they have seen from other successful podcasters. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some podcasters, like Alex Hormozi, use their content to build trust and expertise, enabling them to invest in businesses at favourable terms or acquire equity through consulting. Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast monetises by releasing only a few episodes per year and putting older episodes behind a Patreon paywall, generating over $40,000 monthly. The Lore podcast successfully expanded its intellectual property into books and TV shows, earning its creator an estimated $6 million annually from licensing deals. Some airlines license podcast episodes for in-flight entertainment, providing an additional revenue stream for creators like Steven Bartlett. The Detour podcast offers guided audio tours of cities, combining storytelling with real-world exploration for a unique listener experience. Being a podcast guest can be a monetisation strategy, allowing individuals to reach new audiences and promote their products or services without hosting their own show. Some podcasters charge guests to appear on their shows, particularly in niche markets or for locally focused content. The "Hey Mr. Jim" podcast created a branded physical product – a child-friendly radio that plays only their content, selling for £97 plus shipping. BEST MOMENTS "Dan goes to like, the extreme and he'll do, Three or four episodes a year. They're all about historic event, but they're like PHD level deep dive of one very specific historical event." "So the premise of this podcast is very similar to when you go to a gallery or museum. You put the headphones on and there's a guided tour." "Daniel Priestly does this really well. He guests on all sorts of podcasts and it's increased downloads of his software company score app massively." "Essentially, the way he monetised was marketing agencies or companies that wanted to sell to marketing agencies, basically anything in that ecosystem, they would pay to come on and he would ask them questions." "Kids all over the world wanted their characters to be in the stories and they wanted specific stories for them or they wanted to be in the stories. So because the parents just want their kids to go to bed and get what they want, you paid to join his Patreon." "You could be that trend you have like the opposite... for every like massive veganism group. You've got like the carnivores, right?"

Alana joins Kev in this episode to talk about leaseholders and service charges. They discuss why this may be the next scandal and how the government, councils and owners can tackle the problem. They also talk about why new builds are never a good investment strategy as a house buyer and the inflated prices they charge. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Some developers are claiming the leasehold charges are for the upkeep of things like roads and playparks. Developers may build parks to get planning in areas that previously would be refused. These leasehold properties on new builds aren't transparent. Many house buyers are completely unaware of what they are buying into. Kev believes that these types of leasehold charges on new houses should be banned. We pay enough council tax that councils should be paying for roads, parks etc… New build houses are always sold for an inflated price. Legislation should be targeting the bad 5% of tenants and landlords, not the good 95%. Most current laws and legislation are hurting the good tenants and landlords. BEST MOMENTS   “New build developers are advising houses for sale but they are being sneaky” “This just screams dodgy to me” “You're almost living on a toll road when you move into one of these estates” “They're creating a legacy for generations to come” “It's kind of a legal-robbery” “95% of landlords are great but it's the 5% that give them a bad name” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

In this episode, Lisa and Cindy discuss:How to make the most of summer for college-bound teens. If pay-to-play programs are worth the investment for your student. No-cost, meaningful summer enrichment options. When to start making summer plans (and how to ensure your student doesn't miss their crucial deadlines). Key Takeaways: Some summer programs have application deadlines in December, January, or even earlier. Your student does not need to pay for programs to make their summer an authentic, enriching experience. With a little creativity, there are DIY options they can do that will give them a great experience. Talk about what your student loves to do and discuss what they get to do, not what they have to do. There are ways to turn their interests into a learning and exploratory experience. Pay-to-play programs do not guarantee your teen admittance at the college hosting the programs. Try to balance the important downtime, pay-to-play, and DIY summer learning opportunities. They all offer different experiences and can help your student in different ways. “Plan ahead. You do you, but think ahead about how you can take advantage of what you love and what you want to explore, then go out and just do something! Don't languish!” – Cindy McCormickAbout Cindy McCormick: Some people are lucky enough to have a career doing EXACTLY what they were born to do - Cindy is one of them.

Therese & “Tee” Forton-Barnes, is a Household Toxins Health Specialist and Coach and owner of The Green Living Gurus and Tee's Organics. Tee grew up in a very healthy home in the 60's and 70's, went to college to open a health food store, and has been helping people for over 40 years keep toxicants out of their homes. Tee is an entrepreneur, activist, podcast host, and educator. She spreads awareness of chemicals in everyday products that could cause many autoimmune illnesses, cancer, and other health issues. She guides women in creating a less toxic home and lifestyle to ultimately increase the odds of a long, healthy, vital life and a safe environment in their homes. Key Takeaways Some of the chemicals that are a concern in our everyday living: fragrance, perfume, talc powder, and color from dye. Teens can get caught up in all the marketing and messages of food and body care products that are loaded with toxins. Parents can guide their teens to eat healthy by modeling what they eat and what they serve their families.  Use essential oils instead of perfumes and fragrances as it's a natural product. Essential oils can be mixed with water to create a spray for household use, your car, gym bag, etc. Laundry detergent and dryer sheets that include fragrance will coat your fabric with chemicals.

This week, Justin Thatil is joined by two of his Agile colleagues, Mike Guiler and Mariano Oliveti, to discuss the tiredness and frustration that can sometimes be caused by following the Agile process. Some organizations can even be convinced that Agile did not work for them; how can this wound be healed?   Key Takeaways Some organizations are sure that Agile didn't work for them. Sometimes, these organizations tried some Agile ways but never started from the beginning. Was “moving faster” all the organization wanted? If you don't adapt the values and behaviors, Agile will not be guaranteed to speed up the process. First, the organization needs to change its culture. These organizations might need to consider that Agile is a process, a hard process. Today's transformations are different from what they were ten years ago. Benefits of Agile: Many organizations need help with accountability, while Agile proposes an excellent method to ensure it. Agile is a way of approaching organizations to figure out what they can do for them based on their current needs. Agile is the approach that assists an organization in transforming its culture into a long-lasting, durable one with self-managing teams that achieve the desired outcomes. Doing Agile vs. Being Agile: Doing Agile is about going through the motions and checking the boxes, but, for being Agile, it is critical to change the culture. There has to be a need for change in the Organization, otherwise, Agile would not work.   Mentioned in this Episode: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable, by Patrick Lencioni   Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Field Guide for Leaders, Managers, and Facilitators, by Patrick Lencioni   Want to Learn More or Get in Touch?

Dr. Edward Phillips, an Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School and Juna Grata, coauthors of a new book, FOOD, WE NEED TO TALK: The Science-Based, Humor-Laced Last Word on Eating, Diet and Making Peace with Your Body (on-sale July 11, 2023 from St. Martin's Press). They also host the popular podcast of the same name, Food, We Need To Talk. Juna Gjata graduated from Harvard in 2017, with degrees in cognitive neuroscience and a minor in music. She is a concert pianist and composer, and creator of the podcast. Key Takeaways Some signs to look for that may indicate an eating concern: skipping meals, being restrictive with food, saying no to food at party's and family gatherings, checking weight more than usual. Be aware of who they tune into on social media and if pictures represent body image concerns. Eating disorders are a formal mental health diagnosis affecting 20% of the population.     Your kids will believe what they hear from you. What you are sharing about healthy body image and the way you feel as an adult about your own body, image is very important in modeling a healthy outlook for your kids. If there's an issue, it's better to deal with it than let your teen suffer in silence. Be careful what you say to or in front of your teen about weight loss, weight gain, working out, etc. especially if you are talking about them. You may think you're being helpful to point things out, but chances are they are going to want to do the opposite of what you're advising. They already know they're a concern. It's best not to talk with your teen about any concerns you have about your own weight, body image, calorie counting, or food choices. When you recognize that your teen needs help, seek it right away, don't wait. It's not a phase. Visit the National Eating Disorder Website to learn more.

In today's show, we're discussing a 1031 exchange and short-term rental properties. We will also hear about our guest's business experience and how his company works. Is there any reason for him to hire a VA, and what kind of short-term rentals do he and his wife manage together?  Moreover, take a quick look at what a 1031 exchange is and how it can be beneficial if you own a property.  Adam Forstner is a firefighter from Wisconsin. He started his business with his childhood friend Dylan a few years ago. Furthermore, he owns a short-term rental property that he manages with the help of his wife. The company he runs fixes uneven concrete and provides leveling solutions.  Why do you need to listen to today's episode? Explore how Va can help your business grow, how it works, and what they can do for you. Get more information about concrete leveling. What kind of business is this? Can this be a good start-up business? Understand the difference between long-term and short-term rentals. Profits differ—also, a brief discussion of the 1031 exchange. The benefit of this one is if you are planning your way out of paying taxes. “Sometimes I have to remind myself of this, but it's sometimes just, it's better to get better before you get bigger. So, focus on what you already have and ensure you're maxing it out here as efficiently as possible.”  - Mike Webb.   Today's Topic:  3:09 “I'm a firefighter for the city Racine Extra today is eight years on the job full time. And then, I did four and a half years of part-time volunteer at a department. Prior to that. My wife and I own eight rental properties now, one short-term rental in Florida.” An overview of Adam's current professional situation. What is his business like? 12:47 - “It saves us a lot of time for sure. And this so they went over with us they've got a nice system, I would guess six to eight different girls that work on our account. So I'm sure they've got lots of other accounts when they pick up the phone. They've got a nice long flowchart that they go through and ask the questions or their predetermined questions.” Adam discusses how Va's aid him in the running of his business. What is their phone answering process, and how do they work? 25:12 - “I get a check from CRS, who is basically handling the housing for these folks. So, so I, but yeah, I don't have the vacancy or any of that stuff that I was having. And just the turnover. And this, these towels are missing, and these sheets got dirty and ripped. So I don't have a lot of that. And frankly, it just allows me to focus on other stuff. Because after I did the Airbnb model for just, say, a year, I quickly realized even though I have most of it systematized to where our VAs handle 95% of it, it's just. It's a lot of back and forth. And I just didn't want to build an entire business like that.” As per Mike, instead of Airbnbing his property, he rented it out long-term with a company, which he shares is easier and less work. 34:05 - “If you do 1031, It differs the taxable gain on the money you would make when you sell the property. Those are such quick numbers. If you sell a house before a year, then you have to pay short-term capital gains, which is right around, we'll say, 40%. And if you keep it for a year and a day, you're paid closer to your earned income rate, which, as we'll say, is around 20%.” Here is a short explanation of what the 1031 exchange is and what it does. 47:58 - “We are less than we found, which when we talked last summer with him as well, kind of lead generator. He's just walking and mudjacking. He does a lot of contractors around the entire country. He kind of advertises for walking mudjacking Twin Cities mudjacking. So if you're looking up, you're Googling mudjacking. Locally, he comes up first almost every time. He's revamped his website, though, so that our picture,s our stuff, and our information comes. It's awesome. I mean, you would think you're talking to us. And then if you fill out the form, it ends up going to calls on calls, or in which he charges us a $40 per lead fee, which we turn out a majority of our business from him, I would say definitely a Facebook marketing.” Here is how Adam gets his leads.   Key Takeaways “Some of that is important to realize, like you don't necessarily want 100% occupancy, like because obviously that would mean your pricing is too low. But you also have the wear and tear that goes with it. So if you can make all your money in five months, it still covers itself for the year. To me, that's almost better as far as the property goes. Now that would not sit well with me when it comes to like the worrying factor because I bet comments vacant, it's vacant, it's vacant. It's not. So as far as ours go. I pulled mine off Airbnb and put it with another corporate housing client because I have it filled for at least eight months. And they're paying above-market rent. And I don't have to like really worry about it. The other Airbnb s we have, they've all been 80 plus percent rented, but they're also more of like a contracted type worker, Airbnb.” - Mike Webb. “If you do 1031, It differs the taxable gain on the money you would make when you sell the property. Those are such quick numbers. If you sell a house before a year, then you have to pay short-term capital gains, which is right around, we'll say, 40%. And if you keep it for a year and a day, you're paying closer to your earned income rate, which, as we'll say, is around 20%. So like Adam and me, I'm in the middle of flipping a house. Actually, I'm just finishing it up. Adam is going to finish his up, and we're looking at 40% going to Uncle Sam of profits, which is a big chunk of change. So for the property that I'm selling right now, it would be around a $32,000 tax hit that I have to pay taxes on, and it's a big chunk of numbers. If I don't want to pay that much money, I can put it into what's called a 1031 deferred transaction, and that's just taking the profits from it and rolling it into the next property. So for transparent numbers, I'm selling this house for 350,000, and the next house has to be $350,001, up to double the amount of $700,000. So if Adam sells him for, we'll say, 500,000, then the maximum, he can buy the next property and roll the money into a million. Or if he sells it for 750,000, the maximum he can buy is 1.5 million, whatever the numbers look like, but the maximum is 200%; he has to identify a house within 45 days and close on the house within 180 days.” - Aaron Foster.  “So it's a standard depreciation is 27 and a half years for residential and 37 for commercial, so they're going to take the value of the property divided by 27. And then that's what they're going to allow you to write off each year, a cost segregation study takes each portion of the house, assigns a value to it, and the rate at which it depreciates in the last few years with the tax codes. They've allowed for accelerated depreciation on a lot of these things. So like, let's say you're into a house, I think what my accountant told me, and we are not accountants, we are not giving financial advice. But he was saying basically 33% of anything that I was taking as far as a purchase price goes. That ended up being what I would be saving on my taxes, which was huge for me. So if Adams is able to do this, instead of just doing the standard 27 years, let's say he has 100 buys a $100,000 house, he can, in the case that I was given by my accountant, he could write off $33,000 in income, or if you look at that versus the 27 plunders. Yeah, I mean, it's a huge difference.” - Tyler Thrush.   Connect with Adam Forstner: Website: https://www.jackedupllc.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/jackedup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JackedUpLLC Connect with First Responder Financial Freedom: Website: https://firstresponderfinancialfreedom.com/ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/First-Responder-Financial-Freedom Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groupsfirstfinancialfreedom YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@firstresponderfinancialfre3914

In this week's episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, I'm excited to welcome Sami Wunder to the show. Sami is the creator of the Love Success Framework, and her business has helped hundreds of women find lasting relationships. In this episode, Sami and I discuss the six steps a high-achieving woman needs to take to find her love relationship. But unfortunately, some women often sabotage their dating experiences, and we will hear why that happens. I can't wait for you to listen to this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast.  In this episode: [01:00] Sami Wunder shares her childhood, her academic achievements, her heartbreaks in romance and what she did to turn it around and start her company. [08:33] Jessica reflects on her dating and ultimate meeting with her husband.  [11:45] Sami reveals that it's too easy to blame your partner for the failure in the relationship and not do a self-evaluation.  [15:53] Social media and generic thinking say to ‘be yourself.' Sami tells why that doesn't work and describes a healthy, empowered self.  [21:19] Sami outlines four steps to be taken in self-evaluation and awareness and how to implement these steps.  [31:00] How to compare the business acumen of ‘The More Leads you Have, the Better your Conversion Rate' to dating.  [34:34] Steps five and six define masculine and feminine energy and the acceptance that men and women see commitment differently.  [44:00] Sami's complimentary training program.   Key Takeaways:  Some of the same qualities that make a woman successful in business may cause her to fail in a love relationship.  Getting a clean mindset and knowing who you are and your worth is the way to start a relationship. Rotational dating is the best way to find the right man for you, and you're not wasting time.   Quotes:  “The easiest thing for high achievers to do is to blame their success and brain for not having love.  I used to do the same whenever things would not work out with a man; it was because he was intimidated by my success, and I was too much. This is a harmful and toxic belief because it becomes the umbrella explanation for why your love life is not working out.” - Sami Wunder “Once you believe that your success and your brain are a problem, you do not have the capacity to go deeper into self-questioning and self-inquiry and see what is truly going on there that is preventing that love and intimacy from entering your life.” - Sami Wunder Guest Bio:  Sami Wunder is a leading international relationship and dating coach who specializes in working with ambitious, high-achieving women, helping them attract lasting romantic love.

We need to be conscious about what we say and what we don't put appropriate weight on when it comes to discussions around history and race.  We need to have a thirst for authentic knowledge about our history. We can't be complacent about things that have happened in the past, as the impact of eras and events of before still reverberate to our modern age.  Racism is systemic, pervasive, and ubiquitous. In part, it means how blocks to housing, banking and business etc. mitigated the opportunity to amass generational wealth and create a meaningful quality of life.   In order to bring light to your blind spots, you've got to discover what your fears or triggers are. You also have to have a realistic degree of expectations. You need to read the room, you've got to understand the culture of the organization and the environment, and who the power players are.    “People need to be honest with themselves, about what they're dealing with. And it has less to do with them and everything to do with the environment that they're in.” — Brenda Harrington     Check out Brenda's book, “Access Denied: Addressing Workplace Disparities and Discrimination” by clicking on this link: https://access-denied.net  Or by ordering on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Access-Denied-Addressing-Disparities-Discrimination/dp/B09VKCNRPP    Connect with Brenda Harrington:   Website: https://adaptiveleadershipstrategies.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendaharrington/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorbharrington/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV2eLbFKa53jFwcpYnzIdCQ  Connect with Jordan:  For executives wanting a complimentary executive coaching conversation: jordan@jordangoldrich.com  Website: www.workplacewarriorinc.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/jordangoldrich1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jordan.goldrich Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jordangoldrich/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jgoldrich/

Dawn and MJ discuss the importance of a vision and taking control of your life, why we all how the power to create something bigger than ourselves and explain why everybody is worthy of love.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   Some people can pretend in their relationship, hold in their emotions and settle but by doing this you're not being true to yourself and fulfilling your potential   When two egos are going against each other in a relationship it is unproductive and nothing will ever get solved.   Communication is essential to a successful relationship, the ability to be open and show compassion can really help to open the lines of communication between partners.   It's important to know where you're going and not just let life happen to you. Having a mood board, and a vision will allow you to take more control over your life.   Supporting each other is essential to creating something bigger than yourself. When you have the support that gets you, you can co-create together.   If you pursue whatever your creative endeavours are and pursue your sense of fulfilment, pursue your creating a beautiful relationship with yourself and really honour who you are, then when somebody else shows up in your life, you have so much more to offer and more to create.   We all have the power to create something new for ourselves when we focus our time and energy. When you're able to really nourish yourself and love yourself, that's when you carry that energy forward into a really beautiful and co-created relationship.   No matter what happened in the past, whatever you envision, that's what you can create. You're never given a vision without also being given the power to make it come true.     BEST MOMENTS “There's a certain point where I guess I was finding myself, growing and we were growing in a different direction.” “In order for both of us to be happy and true to ourselves, it wasn't going to work out.” “Because I wasn't working on myself the idea of working, having more money and going on holiday just became a repetitive thing that society teaches us to do.” “Everyone is worthy of love.”     CONTACT METHODhttps://www.instagram.com/theawakeningwithdawndawn@theawakeningwithdawn.com ABOUT THE HOSTDawn 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.

Have you noticed how every day is full of surprises? Even though I live by my calendar, there is always something unexpected and new that happens! The universe brings us together in amazing ways. We've been focusing on lifelines lately (if you've listened to the past few episodes) and if you are a business owner, your brand story is a huge part of your lifeline.  Recently I traveled to the Atlanta market to shop for a client, and also I just love to go to see what's new! It's hours of walking up and down stairs in multiple buildings with many many floors… and yes, you guessed it, I'm tracking ALL my steps along the way! It wasn't on my to do list for the day but I walked by this world art gallery with maps everywhere (I'm obsessed with traveling and seeing the world and learning geography because I'm SO not good at it.). I had to stop and go in!  I spent hours in there!  Ya know when you see something and you have that inspiration and you just have to stop and get it out! This was one of those moments!  I quickly started to lay things out on the floor and designed away with one of their team members. Then one of the owners came over to answers some questions.  When asking him about his story it's the way he responded where I couldn't help myself…and asked “can I video you” (I've learned to ask, thank you to my sweet travel husband)! There was an amazing brand story there and we recorded this podcast right on the spot! No mics (even though I had them in my bag, didn't want to kill the vibe), I was so excited to hear how the company was founded and what they do, that we jumped right into conversation. Let me introduce you to Ryan Martz of Fire & Pine. Grown from passion, this business's mission is to provide meaningful home decor that gives memories a sense of place through their unique burning process that creates decorative wall maps, intricate U.S. patents and custom-designed wood artwork for customers in all 50 states and internationally.  I'm so excited for you to listen in to (watch) hear his story and I would highly recommend you watch so you can catch a glimpse of their creativity at work! Main Topics: *Taking a passion and turning it into a real business*How to lead with relationships*How to create a company culture that includes your team Key Takeaways: *Some of the best ideas and inventions come from last minute thinking*Creative ways to involve sustainability in your business*How to be productive as a creative More About Our Guest: When we started Fire and Pine in 2016, there were only a handful of us working out of a small part of a warehouse. Today, we are a team of 24 artisans working from a full-scale production facility in a small town in South Carolina. Our unique burning process creates decorative wall maps, intricate U.S. patents and custom-designed wood artwork for customers in all 50 states and internationally. We've grown rapidly, continually adding new products to the Fire and Pine brand and increasing production output. None of this would be possible without a fantastic team of creative professionals who take pride in the art of woodworking. Thanks to the support of our local community — and you! — our team is continuously innovating. The fact that we get to have fun while we work is an added bonus.

In this week's episode, Sean and James talk about how James' routine has changed and how Sean has been going through struggles as a parent. James has taken a break from writing, and falls into an old habit of watching tons of sports, which he thinks comes from his addiction to easy access to entertainment. They talk about the concept of unwinding and what it means for both of them.On the other hand, Sean is learning new things from Miles who is going through the “terrible twos” stage. Why does it have to be called “terrible” when it is a normal stage of development for kids? Sean thinks it sets the wrong mindset, and does his best to navigate it.Plus, listen to a few snippets of Sean and James trying to record while playing golf. It was fun playing together but recording at the same time was a bad idea!Key Takeaways:Some things may be relatively free, but the actual cost is our attention.Focus on creating new memories.There's a time and place to build routines and discipline with children.Episode Quotes:James on addiction to anything“We do have the ability, the mental capacity to stop. We want to stop, we can stop. We have the will.”Sean on unwinding“When we have a big change in our life, we're not very intentional about how we unwind within the new routine.”

In this episode, Jeannette talks about becoming a great leader. Providing advice that anyone who is in a leadership role can use to improve the way that they lead. The tips and strategies that she shares is highly relevant whether you have just been promoted and now lead a team or are a mature leader who wants to take the next step.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   Some people have natural attributes that help them to lead. But the vast majority of people can learn to become a good leader. Most people who get promoted into leadership roles are not provided with any targeted training to help them to lead effectively. Leaders need high emotional intelligence, the courage to make decisions, self-control and other that attributes Jeannette covers in the podcast. Good leaders do not micromanage. Being able to create win-win situations is important.  Having a clear purpose, a place you want to get to and a plan to get there is essential. Have an eye for detail. It will help you to know when to dig in and when to ease off a little. Lead from the front and provide a good example.     BEST MOMENTS ‘It is very different to lead than it is to follow. ´ ‘Leading can be really lonely… you need the courage of your conviction to be able to move forward.' ‘Be authentic. People will absolutely see through fakes.'   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

The tips she shares in this podcast are all tried and tested. Jeannette has used these tips herself, as have them multiple mentees she works with. So, you can be sure that the information she shares here works in today´s business environment. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some of these tips sound obvious. But, often, it is the simple things that work. Be super clear on what you want in your career. Setting a timeframe will push you to take action. Don´t settle for a below-market value rise when you get promoted. Ask for the market rate. Your CV needs to be a living document, which you update several times a year. Capture data that showcases your achievements and add that evidence to your CV. Network externally as well as internally. Be proactive, and constantly nurture your network. Turn internal decision-makers into fans of you. Volunteer for projects. Every quarter, discuss your next career step with your manager. Most senior managers want to pass on the baton, to help people to progress. So, finding a sponsor is rarely difficult. Public speaking and becoming the go-to person for certain issues are powerful ways to boost your profile and networking. Post valuable information on social media. Get yourself a mentor. Do this regardless of how senior you are. Make it clear that you are ready to be promoted. BEST MOMENTS ‘One of my mentee clients…increased his salary by a huge 150,000. So, I know this works. ´ ‘Always be ready, never be on the backfoot.’ ‘Put yourself in the shoes of your boss. In the shoes of your MD, of your CEO.’ ‘Be brave and bold, so that you can unlock your potential.’ This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

Maggie Tinsley joins us to talk about My Living Voice, which is a secure, online platform that guides you through advance care planning. It gives users the opportunity to name their healthcare proxy, to clarify their treatment preferences, and helps them understand the various options and terminologies. After you name your healthcare proxy and treatment preferences, it allows you to make it a legal advance care directive in the state in which you reside. This document can then be shared with your loved ones or your medical team. My Living Voice takes all of the guesswork out of this process. You can even select which states you'd like it to be valid in.Key Takeaways:Some states require a notary for an advance directive to be validIn some states, the witness cannot be the person named as your healthcare proxyMy Living Voices will take you through the process step by step (including filling you in on the state by state information/differences as mentioned above)Your gut reaction might be to designate your spouse or someone close to you as your healthcare proxy. It's important to have a conversation with them to ensure they would be able to make tough decisions, despite being emotionally involved. It's also important to ensure they would honor your wishes.This can be personalized completely, down to what music you want to be played, how warm you like it to be, who you DON'T want present, etc.To access the resources discussed by Maggie today, please visit:MyLivingVoice.comVitalDecisions.net To purchase the Emergency Info File course, please visit:https://www.gotittogethernow.com/eif If you are interested in being a guest, with a story to tell, go to the website and complete the Storyteller Application. at https://legacytherapypodcast.com/getinterviewed If you are a service professional and would like to be a guest, please complete the Industry Professional Application at https://legacytherapypodcast.com/getinterviewed

In this episode, Nathan and Vinay discuss: Being ready when opportunity unfolds The trap of setting conditions for your happiness Minimizing regrets in life Avoiding the burden of expectation   Key Takeaways: Some people say that life is all about drive, setting goals, and attaining success but in life, opportunity can lead to doing something you didn't plan for but end up enjoying anyway. Don't fall into the trap of “I won't be happy unless I get ____”. Putting conditions for your own happiness will only set you up for disappointment, discontentment, and unhappiness. Minimize your regrets in life. Don't be stuck trying to live a life that others want you to live.  Don't let yourself be burdened by expectations, either from others or yourself. Carve your own path and live your own life the way you want to.   "It's healthy to have a goal, but it's just a guide - it's not an end-all-be-all… if you try something new and it doesn't work but you learn something in the process, that in itself is fulfilling.

Have you ever felt like you're trapped in other people's assumptions and expectations of you? Do you want to throw out the labels and show everyone your true potential, power, and who you really are? Are you ready to create your own story and own “who you really are”? Oftentimes, career advice ends up sounding too ideal, too cliche, or too overwhelming and it can be really hard to stick with it. It either makes or breaks your growth, progress, potential, and opportunity. And because of these, we usually end up hindering ourselves from our full potential and just stick with what people expect from us. You don't want to end up being a plain Jane, especially in front of your colleagues or your boss. So, how can you create your own special kind of branding that will help you become the best “you,” and what career advice is really worth it?

This week we're talking about doing something that is meditative. Topics Discussed In This Episode:Why meditative practices are a part of Leanne's non-negotiables.How meditation has an image problem, and what it actually is.Why meditative practices are worthy of your time and attention.The three ways in which meditation and breathwork can benefit you most.What an average resting heart rate is.How it's not always about having time for meditation, but making it.Apps that you can try to help with your meditative practice.The two branches of the nervous system and how we can transition between those states.A recent client experience and why this client felt like she failed at meditation (but didn't really).Examples of various possible meditative practices.What it means to “never miss twice”.Key Takeaways:Some people say mindfulness and meditation doesn't work for them, but often the issue is they haven't found their best way of practicing it yet.The research shows that meditation and breathwork can help stabilize blood pressure.Meditative practices can also help lower resting heart rate.Practicing meditation and breathwork can reduce cortisol in the blood, thereby reducing stress.Mediation helps Leanne feel more composed, calm, and less reactive.There is no one way to practice meditation - all you need is a little bit of time.At night, it's important to be in a parasympathetic nervous system state for a restful, restorative sleep.Leanne has worked with clients who were already using meditative practices without even realizing it.Meditation isn't always sitting with your legs folded and eyes closed. It can include practices like knitting, gardening, and walking in nature.A meditative practice allows you to spend time tapping into what's meaningful and fulfilling to you and is therefore important to your overall wellness.Action Steps:These are the main benefits of taking action and starting a meditative practice.1. Stabilizes blood pressure. Research has shown that meditative practices can help lower high blood pressure.2. Lowers resting heart rate. Meditative practices help lower your resting heart rate.3. Reduces cortisol and stress. Mindfulness and meditation helps remove cortisol from the blood, which also supports a reduction in stress. Leanne said:“It makes me feel more composed, more calm, less reactive. I enjoy sitting with my eyes closed and listening to the sounds of my environment or to an app.” “Everybody should have 5 or 10 minutes in their day where they do something that is meditative. It doesn't necessarily need to be conventional meditation. That's not what I'm trying to sell you the idea of.”Links To Things Mentioned In The Podcast: More on meditation: https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/?s=meditation Leanne's TEDx talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SLP1BF7KBQ Take our Wellbeing at Work Scorecard and see how your organisations wellbeing strategy scores against 4 key areas of wellbeing.

Welcome to How To Reprogram Your Unconscious Mind. Dr. David Snyder talks with us about how we can change our life. He'll share some insights about our beliefs, identity, and action. In this webinar, we will also have exercises that can help us tap into ourselves and have the ability to have control over our beliefs. Standout Quotes: “Without awareness, there is no choice.” “Everything works for somebody. Nothing works for everybody.” “Getting rid of the bad people is probably harder than surrounding yourself with good people.” “Inside your mind, body, and soul, you are the king or queen of your neurology. You are the god or goddess of your universe, and you have every right privilege and authority to make any change that you want for any reason that you want.” “If you can point to where you feel it, you can change it.” “It doesn't matter what our identity is. If we don't actually do something, if we don't take the steps, then we're never going to get where we want to be.” “You can be or have anything you want in this world. But first, you must become the person who deserves to have it.” “Taking action and becoming the person you want to be will always be uncomfortable.” Key Takeaways: Some people add value to our life who make us better people make us more of what we want to be. Some people don't add any value, but they don't take away any value. And then some people eliminate value which makes us feel less about ourselves. Everything about us goes back to beliefs. We have levels to our beliefs. Who you are in this world is supported by your beliefs and values. Below that are your capabilities, the behavior in a particular environment, and the environment itself. You are not the way you are. Your life is not the way it is because of the things that happened to you. Your life is the way it is because of the way you encoded what happened to you and the way that you are relating to that experience. When you have an experience that comes into your body, it's refracted into five channels of information. Your neurology recombines those five channels of information and creates this hologram of reality that we relate to as if it's real. We have two aspects to your body: the internal nervous system and the external nervous system. There's always an interplay of information flowing from the inside to the outside and from the outside to the inside. Once you understand how to synchronize inside and outside and use your imagination in a fun, playful, imaginative way with how you've coded your experiences, you can change any belief you want to any belief you want. There are two reasons that people don't move forward in their life. They either have a conflict between beliefs or values in their head, mind, or mindset stuff, or the actions that they take. There's a feedback loop in the human nervous system. Your perceptions control your beliefs, and your beliefs control your perceptions. Your identity is the number one factor for creating the life you want. It is built from the beliefs about who you are, what you deserve, what you don't deserve. All of that is built out of a code that you can change.

Bryan is also an expert in general management, operations, sales & distribution, and business intelligence. Bryan joins us today to discuss the lessons the pandemic taught him and how his mindset has become adapted to the disruption it brought. He shares some of the key takeaways from The Future of Insurance: From Disruption to Evolution: Volume II: The Startups and describes the difference between the problems that affect legacy carriers and startups. He explains how a well-funded startup isn't always successful and discusses the complexities of compliance and regulations when it comes to startups. He also shares why companies - big or small - should always strive to build a healthy relationship with their regulators and discusses the lessons he has learned from failure. "There are complications in being a legacy and being a startup." - Bryan Falchuk Today on Spot On Insurance: How Bryan's life changed before the pandemic and how he adapted How the pandemic allowed business to be more efficient Why the pandemic made the business side of things have a more human approach What's new with the second volume of Bryan's book The existential threat a legacy carrier would likely never face How businesses can make capital strategies through relationships Is it harder to be an incumbent or a startup Why some are made for legacies and others for startups What is "Diversity of Thinking" and how an organization applies it Why a well-funded startup doesn't always lead to success What compliance is from a startup perspective The role of regulators in the industry and building a good relationship with them What Thimble is, what they do, and why they have a close relationship with regulators The key lessons Bryan learned from the failures he experienced What inspired Bryan to write books and blogs in the first place Key Takeaways: Some insurance businesses are only successful because they were well-invested. You all can have a good relationship with a regulator, but it takes a different approach to them. You have to build relationships and be straight with people.

What you will learn from this episode: Find out how to recognize if a particular real estate investing business deal or person is a good match for you Discover one tool to help you hone in on what your top values to help guide if a real estate investing business opportunity is the right one for you Learn the three steps to identify your top five values that are critical for your real estate investing brand's core foundation Resource: EvalYOUation: https://reibranded.com/checklist/evalyouation/ Compromising your values every day is only going to be too much stress for you to handle. It doesn't help even if it's the biggest real estate investing business deal out there. How do you evaluate if a real estate investing business deal is the right opportunity for you? And when do you walk away from what could be your biggest business deal? In this episode, Paul shares how to go about the steps in zeroing in on your top five values - understanding them, defining them, taking action on them, and scoring them based on how you're living them right now. He underscores how your personal life should mirror your real estate investing business belief system to help you find the right real estate investing match and partnership. "Our personal brand is a reflection of our business brand." - Paul Copcutt Topics Covered: 01:07 - Determining factor if a business deal is the right one for you? 03:08 - Personal life mirroring your business life 05:06 - Talking about one of the core foundation exercises: Why is it crucial to know your values? 06:23 - Three steps you need to do to understand your values better 10:23 - Why should you not rush doing these core foundation exercises? 12:47 - What happens if you compromise your values every day? 13:18 - What your personal brand says about your real estate investing business Key Takeaways: "Some people say, well, business is business, and personal is personal. But that's not the case. Because whatever you do in your personal life, bleeds over into your business life and vice versa." - Paul Copcutt "I really do encourage you to think about your values because your values are the operating principles that form the base of your belief system. And you take your values with you wherever you go. It's like a moral compass." - Paul Copcutt "To better understand your values, what I recommend is taking note of when something bothers you, the chances are that one of your values is being violated or compromised in some way." - Paul Copcutt "The reason this has been your top five - what that is going to mean sometimes is that you do walk away from the best deal you might ever come across or from a business relationship or partnership. But you're going to be able to carry yourself forward in a much more ethical, positive, feel-good way than if you're compromising that value every day."- Paul Copcutt Connect with Paul Copcutt: reibranded.com LinkedIn E: podcast@paulcopcutt.com Music: Thank you to Zoax for the intro music

An exciting new episode as Kurt and Di are joined by successful author, founder of Evolution 2.0 and internet marketing expert, Perry Marshall. Perry shares his personal journey on his route to international success and discusses his new ventures in the world of online marketing. Together they discuss that book "The Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords" and how to excel by elimination outlined in his book Detox, Declutter, Dominate. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some great advice if you are looking to start writing a book would be ‘don't start unless you are a writer'. This doesn't mean you have to be ‘Ernest Hemingway' but you do need to have a way with words. When you do decide to write, you need to write about  something unique. You need to either write the same thing to a unique set of people or you need to address a new thing. This may mean narrowing your topic down to something really specific.  TikTok is like Facebook 11 years ago. There is a huge amount of engagement on it and it is likely going to be a multi billion dollar platform before long. All of the social media platforms have their own idiosyncratic way and nobody can be an expert of all of them. You can get good at one or two of them and use the other platforms for re-targeting.   Succeeding in business is not a bunch of formulas or systems that you go and copy out of somebody's manual. Business is really 7 riddles that only you can figure out for yourself.  Firstly, you need a ritual to figure out the riddles in the first place.  You need to start your day the right way which is by planning, meditating, praying or whatever your spiritual practice is. This is the foundation of everything.  You need to figure out where the 80/20 levers are in your business. Then, you  need to earn $1000 an hour a day for one hour a day with 80/20 time. You then need to create an irresistible product that is a joy to use by simplifying it for your customers. You are going to find a way to make your customers' life simpler, it may make your life more complicated but this is why you have a job.  Carve out the niche where you're the number one undisputed leader. Most people never do this but whatever you do you need to make sure you are number one. Next, build a moat around your castle to ensure you are defending your business long term, why start a business you cannot defend?. Lastly, enjoy the freedom to create an event everyday. Most people feel guilty when they are creating something, reading a book or just thinking.   When you get to a certain level of mastery in your niche, you will now know how to master anything. You will eventually be able to know more about an entire industry in two weeks than a college student who has spent three years of their life learning about.  BEST MOMENTS “My first sales job totally ran against my marketing DNA” “You have got to have something unique to say.” “If he has to remind you how smart he is, to remind you he is smart..then he is not smart.” “One person cannot master 6 ad platforms.” “Whatever you do you need to make sure you are number one in.” “Everyone is conditioned to look busy, but they aren't even busy.” .. and be sure to check out the quick fire trivia round!

If you haven't figured it out already, this episode is all about perfume and cologne. Nolan has a freaky superpower where he can walk by someone and know exactly which one they are wearing. Some are so strong and memorable that you just never forget them. We talk about which ones we love, we hate and which ones to avoid. We discuss how much is too much and if it's unprofessional to wear fragrance at work. Plus, Nolan reveals the biggest mistake(s) you can make when it comes to fragrance. You’re welcome. In This Episode: [01:45] We give our hot takes on fragrance  [04:40] Is it unprofessional to wear fragrance at work?  [06:00] How much is too much fragrance?   [09:40] The biggest mistake you can make when it comes to your fragrance   [13:40] Did you know that fragrance goes bad?! [16:50] How long your fragrance should last   [26:00] The best brands for fragrance  Key Takeaways: Some people consider fragrance unprofessional at work. Be careful how much you are putting on so you don’t kill people when you walk in.  Don’t spray the fragrance and walk through it; that’s a waste and sticks to your clothes, not your skin.  Eau de Toilette is a light fragrance; if you like something stronger, then try Eau de Parfum. Extrait de Parfum is the strongest concentration of fragrance that you can purchase.  Links Mentioned: Chanel NO5: https://www.chanel.com/us/fragrance/n5-marion-cotillard/ Tom Ford OUD Wood: https://www.tomford.com/oud-wood/T1-OUD-WOOD.html Le Labo: https://www.lelabofragrances.com Santal 33: https://www.lelabofragrances.com/santal-33.html Baccarat Rouge 540: https://www.franciskurkdjian.com Dior Perfume: https://www.dior.com/en_us/fragrance Juliette has a gun: https://us.juliettehasagun.com Tom Ford Soleil Blanc: https://www.sephora.com/product/soleil-blanc-P406526 Jo Malone: https://www.jomalone.com

Maggie Tinsley joins us to talk about My Living Voice, which is a secure, online platform that guides you through advance care planning. It gives users the opportunity to name their healthcare proxy, to clarify their treatment preferences, and helps them understand the various options and terminologies. After you name your healthcare proxy and treatment preferences, it allows you to make it a legal advance care directive in the state in which you reside. This document can then be shared with your loved ones or your medical team. My Living Voice takes all of the guesswork out of this process. You can even select which states you’d like it to be valid in.Key Takeaways:Some states require a notary for an advance directive to be validIn some states, the witness cannot be the person named as your healthcare proxyMy Living Voices will take you through the process step by step (including filling you in on the state by state information/differences as mentioned above)Your gut reaction might be to designate your spouse or someone close to you as your healthcare proxy. It’s important to have a conversation with them to ensure they would be able to make tough decisions, despite being emotionally involved. It’s also important to ensure they would honor your wishes.This can be personalized completely, down to what music you want to be played, how warm you like it to be, who you DON’T want present, etc.To access the resources discussed by Maggie today, please visit:MyLivingVoice.comVitalDecisions.net To purchase the Emergency Info File course, please visit:https://www.gotittogethernow.com/eif If you are interested in being a guest, with a story to tell, go to the website and complete the Storyteller Application. at https://legacytherapypodcast.com/getinterviewed If you are a service professional and would like to be a guest, please complete the Industry Professional Application at https://legacytherapypodcast.com/getinterviewed

Producer's Pick is a bonus episode. In it we dissect the line of a movie, song, quote, social media post, Scripture, or topic you suggest. Episode Summary In today's episode we go behind the scenes with Pastor Buddy Walker who discusses how to prepare for marriage, becoming the right pick, the importance of contentment and more! Listen to the full episode and if you missed his previous episodes on Love After Divorce, listen to Ep# 56 & 57. Key Takeaways Some persons make wedding plans without truly assessing whether they are ready to be married or are suited for each other (2:52) God has given women a certain wisdom that men need to respect and as women we need to ensure that this respect is there before we head into marriage (10:00) Begin to evaluate the health of the relationship before you decide to go into the romantic stage of the relationship. Because you don't want to become romantically involved in a relationship that's not healthy (13:07) It is important to be content because it helps you to make wise decisions and avoid foolish mistakes (14:36) Commitment (covenant) comes from the heart of God (25:05) The man is the head of the wife. This isn't about domination or rulership but about him taking responsibility and putting his wife's well being and that of his children first (28:15) Top Quotes If anyone truly is ready for marriage, there's a learning curve. As you well know, there are things you will not understand or grow into until you're actually in the relationship but doing our very best to enter with wisdom and maturity, realistic expectations (3:22) I don't want to imply that you're going to find a person that is perfect in every way...But if the young woman takes it on herself, that she's going to be the reformer or the transformer...the dynamics of the relationship will change (7:51) He (God) chose marriage as a means of helping us to fully grow into the potential that He has given to us. And someone who says, It's not good for a man to be alone, it could mean that there's going to be a deficiency in that man's life, without the input from a loving spouse (11:23) My wife is a woman of great wisdom. And she doesn't try to control me. She doesn't try to mold me into what she wants me to be. But she speaks into my life and I value her perspectives on things that she can say to me (12:42) Be careful about being too desperate. You know, being able to be content. In whatever state you find yourself if you're single, being able to be content in that state, because when you're content, then you're not going to make foolish impulse (14:36) If you're single, you can totally give yourself to serving the Lord without distraction. It's better to stay single...unless...You are both radically and totally committed to serving Christ with your whole life...You can do more together than what you could do by yourself. And there is no distraction because you're in it together (21:50) Resources Scriptures: Matthew 19:5, Proverbs 1:20, Ephesians 5:23 Stay Connected Thanks for listening to this episode.

Taking a holistic approach to your health means looking at your mental, emotional, spiritual, physical, and nutritional health. I'm joined by wellness coach Sarah Anne Stewart to talk about how she encourages holistic health with her clients. She also shares some great tips on increasing your overall wellness! Key Takeaways Some quick exercises you can start doing that will help you heal your mental and emotional health and your relationship with your body. Practicing daily affirmations Getting involved in Mirror Work Writing a letter to our body About Sarah Anne Stewart Sarah Anne Stewart discovered the world of wellness as a teenager when her father received a terminal cancer diagnosis. Her family made a choice – to fight back with alternative medicine. Seven months later, her father was cancer-free, and a spark was lit in Sarah that propelled her to dedicate her life to spreading the healings her family had discovered.  Today, as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach (AADP), Sarah runs a leading private coaching practice with a focus on breaking free of diet culture through mindfulness. Her heart-centered approach has supported hundreds on their journeys to body love.  Sarah is the founder of the Awesome Inside Out Movement, an advisor to international wellness brands and soon to be Hay House author. Taking the First Steps into Holistic Wellness Sarah starts by sharing the story of when she first ventured into the wellness world. As a professional model, she struggled with what she knew to be true about her diet and lifestyle and actually putting it into practice.  She opens up and shares how she nearly killed herself with anorexia before she finally realized she needs to work on her mental and emotional health, as well as her nutritional and physical, in order to truly heal. This led Sarah on a journey into holistic wellness that included a deep spiritual practice of healing. She found a spiritual teacher who told her that she needs to relearn everything she knew about suffering. Sarah talks about self-sabotaging behavior and how, even when we're actively trying to change our lives for the better, we can still engage in it. She explains some of the reasons for this and what we can do to stop this behavior. She also shares some mindset tips to change who and what you attract into your life. I love these tips and I think we should apply them often! Comparison is the Number One Barrier to Wellness Sarah suffered from breast implant illness for years. She found herself in a bubble of people who denied this could be happening, but eventually discovered how sick her implants were making her.  Sarah shifts into explaining the mindset behind why people get implants. Social media is often blamed for poor body image issues in young women, but it's not uncalled for blame. Sarah believes that social media and comparing ourselves to other women is definitely one of the reasons women get implants. She encourages you to go on regular social media detoxes. Other wellness practices Sarah promotes are spending time in nature, writing or repeating affirmations, regular meditation, and engaging in mirror work. One of the ultimate things we need to do in order to heal is to stop comparing ourselves to other people. Comparison doesn't serve you at all, my friends. It's time we let go and embrace who we are as our unique, wonderful selves. How is this comparison serving you? How is it keeping you in a place of discomfort? What would happen if you actually let it go? As always, you can ask me anything and let me hear your thoughts in the comments on the episode page. If you have questions, email team@drannacabeca.com.

Taking a holistic approach to your health means looking at your mental, emotional, spiritual, physical, and nutritional health. I’m joined by wellness coach Sarah Anne Stewart to talk about how she encourages holistic health with her clients. She also shares some great tips on increasing your overall wellness! Key Takeaways Some quick exercises you can start doing that will help you heal your mental and emotional health and your relationship with your body. Practicing daily affirmations Getting involved in Mirror Work Writing a letter to our body About Sarah Anne Stewart Sarah Anne Stewart discovered the world of wellness as a teenager when her father received a terminal cancer diagnosis. Her family made a choice – to fight back with alternative medicine. Seven months later, her father was cancer-free, and a spark was lit in Sarah that propelled her to dedicate her life to spreading the healings her family had discovered.  Today, as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach (AADP), Sarah runs a leading private coaching practice with a focus on breaking free of diet culture through mindfulness. Her heart-centered approach has supported hundreds on their journeys to body love.  Sarah is the founder of the Awesome Inside Out Movement, an advisor to international wellness brands and soon to be Hay House author. Taking the First Steps into Holistic Wellness Sarah starts by sharing the story of when she first ventured into the wellness world. As a professional model, she struggled with what she knew to be true about her diet and lifestyle and actually putting it into practice.  She opens up and shares how she nearly killed herself with anorexia before she finally realized she needs to work on her mental and emotional health, as well as her nutritional and physical, in order to truly heal. This led Sarah on a journey into holistic wellness that included a deep spiritual practice of healing. She found a spiritual teacher who told her that she needs to relearn everything she knew about suffering. Sarah talks about self-sabotaging behavior and how, even when we’re actively trying to change our lives for the better, we can still engage in it. She explains some of the reasons for this and what we can do to stop this behavior. She also shares some mindset tips to change who and what you attract into your life.

Grit, determination and courage personified After reading Economics and Politics at Exeter University, Sanger trained as a chartered accountant at Ernst & Young before moving to an advertising agency. Frustration with the decision-making process led Sanger to open his own business, a chain of sandwich bars in West London. David is an award-winning entrepreneur with experience in corporate acquisitions, shareholder exit and corporate sales, he has the ability to grow turnover & profitability. Key Takeaways Some of the things we do in our beginnings, specifically towards our work and bigger personal decisions, we realise that we could have made ones that were far more in keeping with the direction of who we are and what we want to achieve. Upon reflection and with hindsight we can look back and with a positive attitude can see that in their own way, these decisions have been monumental on our journey and have the potential to lead us to great things. David talks about his recognition of this piece.   In so many areas of our lives, we learn what we need through the contrast of experiencing that of which we don't. David has a fear of failure and an overwhelming need to win. It's of course an ongoing debate as to how much of our drivers we are born with versus our experiences in life that create these.    Something that definitely rings true for David, is that a will to win is born of confidence. I guess that can be confident in ourselves, a product or a cause, the ultimate would be all three.    The biggest piece David talks about is a winning culture and how to create that. He has a lot to say around this subject and I feel that he could give us all a master class on this. His clarity around the strategy and his passion to successfully achieve this is inspiring, and I believe if we were to listen to what he has to say and tick off his bullet points one by one, we would be very close to achieving this too.    After mentioning confidence, it is clear to see that David has this in spades and in every fibre of his body his statement ‘never forget the power of one individual' is born from his confidence. As he so rightly says ‘if you think you can or you can't, you're probably right!    In the process of creating meaningful impact, this is a great watch!   Let's Stay Connected   Speak with Craig about Magnifying Your Impact https://www.craiggoldblatt.com/work-with-me/ https://go.craiggoldblatt.com/attract-ideal-donors   YouTube: https://www.craiggoldblatt.com/tv/   Connect with David Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidbsanger/

David Burnie is the Founder of The Burnie Group, a management consulting firm that focuses on helping clients design innovative strategies and continuously pursue operations excellence. On today’s episode, David discusses how no industry is safe from disruptive innovation and gives tips on how you can be proactive.   Key Takeaways: Some may fear it but automation is going to help society. As more people retire we will have less workers to support them. It will allow people to focus on higher value jobs and eliminate some of the monotony.  We are experiencing the fourth industrial revolution. As technology increases exponentially, we will begin to see artificial intelligence, robotic process, and the internet of things explode.  With every industrial revolution, people have been scared about their jobs, but these revolutions have significantly improved quality of life. Today we are at the highest level of unemployment we have ever seen.  Every industry, even ones that haven’t been affected in years, will be disrupted with innovation, and that’s a good thing! We will be working more efficiently overall.  Examples of innovations include: Internet of things will be elevated by 5G and will allow data to be transported very quickly. (eg. will be able to track bananas and optimized shipping conditions based on product demand) Block chain will allow multiple parties to share information (eg. better sharing of electricity between homes)   It's important to get ahead of the curve, before your competition does. Here are some things you can do:  Get educated - read and go to conferences Bring in experts - don't try to do everything yourself Innovation training -  train your leaders and the front line on new technologies  Embrace innovation - have a contest for employees to bring in new ideas  Performance management & targets - allow people to fail and create incentives to try new things  Innovation funds - work with entrepreneurs and offer to pilot new technologies  Change how you recruit - look for flexibility and adaptability Stay until the end for some rapid-fire questions with David!    Mentioned in This Episode: Burniegroup.com Burnie Group Twitter  Burnie Group LinkedIn     Subscribe to Leader Lab, and Leave a Rating & Review!

Let's Fix Work with Laurie Ruettimann Wow, I'm sorry.  I'm sorry that it took so long to publish this episode. This discussion with Laurie, is one of my favorite discussions I've had on the podcast.  She demonstrates her passion behind fixing work, thinking, and change. Laurie is an author, speaker, podcaster, and overall badass.  She helps companies, leaders, and HR departments fix work by creating policies, process, and programs that improve the employee experience.  This week we discuss everything from suicide bombers, to weight loss, to premortems, to failure.  Thank you Laurie for the awesome discussion, and thank you to Jennifer McClure for the introduction. Questions Discussed Why don't we blow HR up? Why do you we struggle with thinking critically? What are some things we can do to help with root cause analysis? What's the difference between compassion and empathy? Why is the HR function incomplete? How can we identify our fundamental flaws at an organization level? How did Laurie make the transition from being uncomfortable with sales to selling? What comes to mind when Laurie thinks about goal setting? How do you reconcile with mistakes? Did Laurie apply a premortem when she started her tech startup? What's a premortem? How can a premortem apply in sales? What are some lessons Laurie learned from building her podcast? Key Takeaways Some times systems are broken beyond repair Recognize the humanity - then you can have a core conversation. Understand what makes people human Go to compassion Moments of tension can create a feeling of being trapped. Double down on these moments. HR can be a bridge You can't do it on your own. Leverage relationships. HR as a consultative body - specialist The way of work is changing. You have to listen. You need to shut up. Corporations do not have imposter syndrome - Companies put themselves first. Consumption does not fix problems Know who you are, set reasonable goals. Do the hard and honest work of feeling the thing that is holding you back. The thing that makes us human is our capacity to try. We fail. We learn. We grow. Behavior changes can disrupt habits.

Welcome to another Q&A episode! The questions that come in, many of us have these questions and sometimes we’re just scared to ask. So take a listen as I provide some insights and strategies on the things that you want to know about. Enjoy! You can find all the info and links about this episode at https://holisticwellness.ca/episode52. Topics Discussed in this Episode: How can you boost low progesterone? Why should you take a DUTCH test? When you have low thyroid function, should you support your thyroid, your adrenals, or both? What can you do with terrible menopausal symptoms? Should you eat different foods while you’re on your period? Is it possible to take too much B vitamins? What can you do about getting sick a lot? Key Takeaways: Some of the reasons for having low progesterone could be age. Or it could be that your progesterone is low in relation to your estrogen, meaning that there is estrogen dominance going on. If you have low thyroid function, it typically means you have a high adrenal function. So your adrenals and your thyroid can’t really function at the same time. When it comes to menopause, your symptoms will get worse if you have a congested liver, if you have adrenal fatigue, and if you have low thyroid function.   Action Steps: Get acupuncture treatment to help boost low progesterone. You can also start to incorporate some evening primrose oil, specifically during the second half of your cycle. Get a DUTCH test. Support both your adrenals and your thyroid. Address terrible menopausal symptoms: Do a thyroid test and run a full thyroid panel). Manage the stressors in your life. Implement a high level of self-care. Detoxify. Get rid of toxic products that you’re currently using. Go to ewg.org and look up the Clean 15 and the Dirty Dozen lists. Eat a variety of foods during your period. Make sure you’re getting enough iron by eating red meat (lamb, beef, organ meats like liver). If you have a heavier flow, take an iron supplement. Get lots of vitamin C by eating citrus fruits (lemons, lime, grapefruit, berries) and dark leafy greens. Vitamin C is going to help with the absorption of iron. Eat foods rich in omega-3 (fish oil, hemp seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds, wild-caught fish). Eat foods rich in B12 (red meat, dark leafy greens) Pay attention to carbohydrates. Some women need a little bit more carbohydrates during their period and everybody is different. What to do if you often get sick: Eat mushrooms. Reishi mushrooms, Cordyceps, and Chaga are really good and help to modulate the immune system. Increase your vitamin C intake by eating vitamin C-rich foods or supplementing with it. Make sure you stay hydrated. Support your gut health with probiotics, fermented foods, and bone broth. Make sure you’re sleeping well enough and that you’re creating healthy boundaries around your sleep. Get anti-inflammatory herbs and spices (ginger-lemon tea, ginger-lemon-turmeric lemonade).   Samantha said: “[The DUTCH test] is a wonderful hormone test because it will not just show you what’s going on with your sex hormones but will also really break down all your hormone metabolites and how well your liver is.” “If you feel like you’ve done everything… and your symptoms are still showing up in a big way, that’s when I would suggest to go dive in and now do the DUTCH test. Instead of trying to guess everything, just test, don’t guess, and then dive into that.”   Thanks for listening!   Important Announcements: Sign up for our weekly newsletter.

About 50% of all online sales happen on Amazon today. The platform is becoming much more stronger, but now Amazon appears to be pushing out valuable brands, by focusing on their private label offering. Promoting their own suite of products in a tag-line at the bottom of organic search results seems unfair to some brands, as this is not a tool that they are able to use and it certainly appears to give Amazon an advantage. On the show today we will be talking about your options if you're a brand in this situation. Kiri has some great insights to help you protect yourself from Amazon's private label suite, while still acknowledging that Amazon is not your platform. Tune in now to find out more. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some context around Amazon's private label offering. To what extent should Amazon be using their own platform to promote their own products? Amazon previously appeared to be an open marketplace. It took at least fifteen years for Amazon's retail business to get to where it is today. Amazon created something that shoppers really wanted. Understanding that this is Amazon's platform so we have to play by their rules. Slim profits on private labels for Amazon. Why Amazon is doing this. Amazon has all the data and they're using it to their advantage. Filling the gaps. What brands can do in this situation. Using Amazon's market research tool.

On today's episode, Alex explains why you should leverage your network first when it comes to hiring good talent, and why you need to always be looking for talent, even if you don't need to hire someone right away. Alex also shares some of his hiring tips for those who desperately need to get rockstars on their team.   Key Takeaways: Some of Alex's best hires have been through word of mouth. ABH — Always Be Hiring. Ask on your social media platforms and let your peeps know you're looking to hire. Be specific with what you're looking for. Alex typically hires two people at the same time for one position. Then sees who performs better. If you're going to hire a salesperson who is hungry, make sure you can feed him. Don't be cheap with your staff. A true closer pays for himself or herself multiple times over.   The Flip Empire Inner Circle Want to close more deals and generate more revenue?

The topic this week came from a question I got from a listener. He asked, “Why don't you use hardware to do things like EQ and compression before recording audio to your computer?” There's nothing wrong with doing processing on your audio before recording it to your computer, I just prefer to do that processing in my software (Logic Pro X) instead. Another question I see a lot is, “What's the difference between a mixer and a interface?” So this week I'm going to explain the difference between a hardware mixer and an audio interface, and talk about why I believe mixers are becoming less necessary even if you want to stream live shows with guests. Key Takeaways: Some hardware mixers have USB outputs, but most don’t. In most cases, you’ll need to buy an audio interface to record audio into your computer (unless you’re using a single USB microphone). You can spend days trying to get your audio quality from 90% to 100%, but your audience doesn’t really care. They only care that the levels are balanced and that it doesn’t sound like crap. As live-streaming web apps like Zencastr and Squadcast get better, the need for physical hardware will be diminished for most podcasters. Most professional audio editing apps allow you to create templates for plugins and channel strips, so learn how to use those and you’ll save a ton of time in post-production. What’s the Difference Between a Mixer and An Audio Interface? A hardware mixer is a physical board with a bunch of knobs and faders (you’ve seen these in the control rooms at churches and concert venues). It takes a variety of different inputs (microphones, keyboards, etc) and sums them to a stereo track, which is what you and the rest of the audience hears coming out of the main speakers. These mixers often have built-in effects like EQ and reverb. That’s the basics of what a hardware mixer does. They come in variety of different configurations and prices depending on how many inputs and features you want. Here’s what a typical hardware mixer looks like: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=hardware+mixer&t=ffab&iax=images&ia=images An audio interface isn’t too different, but it is made to take an analog audio signals and convert it into a digital format that your computer can use. Most audio interfaces don’t have physical volume faders for each input or special effects like EQ and reverb, they just have input gain knobs for each microphone input. The audio interface I currently use is the Focusrite Scarlett 18i8. Some hardware mixers have USB outputs, but most don’t. In most cases, you’ll need to buy an audio interface to record audio into your computer (unless you’re using a single USB microphone). Should I Buy a Hardware Mixer? I don’t think hardware mixers are necessary for most podcasters these days. If you’re just making a podcast, at some point you’re going to have to put the audio file on your computer to do editing and export it as an MP3. So you’ll either need to buy a hardware mixer that has a USB output (and the good ones are fairly expensive) or you’ll need to buy an audio interface to convert the analog signal from your mixer into a digital signal. For most people, an audio interface will get the job done. Why not do audio processing like EQ and compression with hardware instead of software? I like the freedom of being able to make changes to the processing after recording. I like to record a clean audio track at the proper input gain levels and then be able to do EQ, compression, and noise removal later. There is a downside because there’s the temptation to tweak endlessly, but having a deadline will help prevent endless tweaking. You can spend days trying to get your audio quality from 90% to 100%, but your audience doesn’t really care. They only care that the levels are balanced and that it doesn’t sound like crap. Is the DBX 286 Preprocessor a Good Investment? A lot of podcasters use the DBX 286 pre-processor to enhance the audio quality of their tracks on the way into their interface. I have one, but I actually don’t use it anymore. (Update: I ended up selling it) Could I save some time if I got used the DBX 286 and got all the settings dialed in? Maybe, but it doesn’t take me that long to do post-production in Logic Pro X. I can apply all those same effects in less than 5 minutes and then save the exact settings as a template to be used anytime I want. The Benefits of Simplicity Fewer parts in a signal chain means fewer things that can go wrong. If you have five different pieces of hardware between your mic and your computer and something goes wrong, troubleshooting is going to be a pain. Ideally, I would be using a USB microphone for recording. That would be best case scenario; just a single mic plugged into my laptop or iPad. But the technology just isn’t there yet; I love the sound quality I get from my Shure Beta 87A. Until a USB mic is made that matches that quality, I’ll be using the Beta 87A and my audio interface. What About Live Streaming With Multiple Guests and Mix Minus? If you want to record four people in the same room, then you’re going to have to buy four microphones and an audio interface with at least four mic inputs. Streaming software is getting more powerful, so having a bunch of audio hardware for live-streaming or recording remote guests is becoming less necessary. Web apps like Squadcastand Zencastr make live-streaming easy, and apps like Quicktime and Audacity make recording a local file on a computer simple for your guests. With Squadcast or Zencastr, you don’t even need to record local audio files; the web app records them for each person on the call and will deliver them to you after the call is over. So the need for complicated audio hardware setups is going away for most people. As live-streaming web apps like Squadcast get better, the need for physical hardware will be diminished for most podcasters. There’s also a Mac app called Loopback that allows you to do some pretty cool routing stuff with audio inputs and outputs from various apps. I was using that as a replacement for my current mix/minus setup, but I ran into some weird bugs so I’m back to using hardware for now. Hopefully those things will get sorted out in the future so I can record and stream guests without needing a second computer to run Skype on. Control Surfaces If you like the idea of physical faders and knobs for mixing, consider buying a control surface like the Korg nanoKontrol 2 ($60) or the Behringer BCF2000 ($300). These devices are really more useful for mixing music, though. I’ve had the nanoKontrol 2 for a year and have used it for mixing podcasts… never. Consider Investing in a Profesional DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) If you’re going to be producing and editing a podcast every week, it’s probably worth investing in a professional DAW like Logic Pro X, Pro Tools or Audition. These audio workstation apps allow you to create and save templates for your tracks, so once you get your plugin settings dialed in (for things like EQ, compression, limiting, noise removal, etc.), you can reuse the same settings every week. That can be a huge time saver. You shouldn’t be re-creating your plugin settings every single week. Most professional audio editing apps allow you to create templates for plugins and channel strips, so learn how to use those and you’ll save a ton of time in post-production.
