Burnout is not a badge of honor. For years, working 22-hour days and never taking holidays was worn as proof of resilience. But the reality is different. A 2025 study published in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine estimates burnout costs employers between $4,000 and $21,000 per employee per year in lost productivity, disengagement, and turnover. In this Wise Words episode, Justin Tamsett sits down with clinician, scientist, and founder of New Approach Health, Emahlea Wilcher, to unpack what burnout really is, how it impacts your body and brain, and what you can do right now to protect yourself and your team. If you are a coach, club owner, fitness entrepreneur, or leader who feels constantly tired, irritable, foggy, or disconnected, this conversation is essential listening.   Key highlights from the episode: What burnout actually is and how to recognize the early warning signs before you crash How burnout impacts your body, brain, relationships, and income Practical strategies to prevent burnout for yourself and your team   Curious about the future host of Fitness Business Podcast?

In the introduction to the latest Global Sentiment Survey report, Donald Taylor describes this year's results as 'the most significant' in the survey's history. In this week's episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Don joins Ross D and Ross G to discuss: whether interest in AI has peaked; why Don believes the results reflect a breaking of old norms; the steady climb of 'showing value' and the relative decline of 'learning analytics'; the key challenges L&D professionals are facing; the things these professionals are doing now that they weren't doing a year ago. You can download a copy of the Global Sentiment Survey report here. In 'What I Learned This Week', Ross G drew an analogy between content in the pre-AI era and low-background steel. Don recommended A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry by Geoffroi de Charny. And Ross D referenced  the article 'An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me' by Scott Shambaugh.

Lori Niles-Hoffmann, senior learning strategist, co-founder of 8Levers, and longtime voice in the L&D space, explores the trends shaping talent development this year. Her 2026 predictions focus on the future of learning: the decline of one-size-fits-all courses, the rise of AI tutors and performance support, and how personalized, contextual learning will reshape the learner experience.  In this episode, Lori challenges the hype around generative AI, highlights the growing importance of agents and workflow redesign, and explains why L&D must prepare now to stay strategically relevant. The conversation also tackles ethics, data privacy, and employee trust, along with the emotional reality many professionals feel amid rapid change. Lori reminds us that while technology evolves, human skills, classroom connection, and empathy remain essential.  Resources: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lorinileshofmann/  Website: https://www.loriniles.com/  Business Website: https://www.8levers.com/

What if building a career in coaching did not require you to run your own business at all? In this episode, we open up a conversation that we realise we have not explored nearly enough. We often talk about creating a coaching business or becoming a coaching leader, yet there is a growing and exciting landscape of coaching jobs inside organisations that deserves real attention. This discussion was sparked by the noticeable rise in coaching roles appearing across LinkedIn and within our own community. As we began to explore them more closely, we reflect on our own experience of returning to an in-house role where coaching formed the heart of my work. It brought together everything we loved about developing people, with the stability of a regular income and without the constant need to generate clients. That combination created a deep sense of alignment and ease. We share the wide range of ways coaching now shows up in organisations. Some roles are fully dedicated internal coach positions. Others sit within learning and development, people development, leadership, apprenticeships or culture transformation. In many cases, coaching becomes the differentiating skill that allows someone to move from one profession into another and close the experience gap that once felt like a barrier. What becomes clear in this conversation is that there is no single pathway. For some people, the idea of running a business and stepping into a CEO identity is energising. For others, it is not where their passion lies. There is equal value in a role where you are paid to do the work you love every day, making a tangible difference to individuals and teams, without needing to manage marketing, sales and operations. We also reflect on the increasing recognition within organisations that coaching improves performance, supports wellbeing and helps retain talented people. As executive coaching has proven its impact, companies are now asking how to create that same level of support at scale. This is where internal coaching capability and coaching cultures are being built, and it is opening doors to roles that simply did not exist a decade ago. One of the most important themes running through this episode is possibility. Coaching training is not only about becoming a coach in private practice. It is a powerful, transferable professional development that allows you to reshape your current role, step into a new one or design a portfolio career that blends stability with independence. We also talk about timeframes, because the journey is often far more achievable than people imagine. Within a year to eighteen months, it is entirely possible to gain a qualification, apply your existing experience and position yourself as the ideal candidate for roles that previously felt out of reach. At its core, this episode is about contribution. It is about being paid to make a meaningful difference, to work with people in a way that feels purposeful, and to build a career that reflects how you truly want to spend your time.   Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to coaching jobs in organisations 00:26 Jo's in-house coaching role and the value of income stability 01:48 Searching for coaching roles and surprising results 03:17 Using coaching to bring strengths and passions together 04:17 A success story of moving into an internal coaching role 05:11 New and emerging coaching career pathways 06:05 Coaching qualifications as a bridge into people roles 07:02 The scope and creativity within L&D and development roles 08:27 Portfolio careers and university coaching work 09:24 The rise of in-house coaching in global organisations 10:23 Building coaching capability at scale 11:21 Organisational support for coaching development 12:13 Coaching roles shaped by culture and organisational need 13:10 Business owner versus employed coach pathways 14:04 Part-time roles and blended career models 15:00 Being paid to make a meaningful difference 15:56 How quickly career change can happen through coaching 16:52 Transferable skills from other industries 17:22 First steps to explore coaching opportunities   Key Lessons Learned: A coaching career can exist fully inside an organisation without running a business. Coaching qualifications create powerful bridges into people development and L&D roles. Internal coaching is growing as organisations seek performance, wellbeing and retention at scale. Portfolio careers allow a blend of stability, flexibility and independence. Transferable skills from many industries align naturally with coaching. It is possible to reposition your career within one to eighteen months. Being paid to make a meaningful contribution is a valid and achievable goal.   Keywords: coaching jobs in organisations, internal coach roles UK, learning and development coaching careers coaching qualification career change, people development roles coaching, portfolio coaching career coaching culture in organisations, executive coaching internal capability, transferable skills into coaching, coaching career pathways,   Links & Resources: IG Company website: https://www.igcompany.com Coaching course quiz: https://www.mycoachingcourse.com

What if the biggest barrier to learning AI isn't the tools—it's how we approach learning itself?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Gagan Biyani, CEO and co-founder of Maven, to unpack why this moment is critical for mid-career professionals to prioritize self-learning. Gagan shares lessons from running a cohort-based learning platform and conducting 30-50 interviews with companies struggling to adopt AI. He explains why AI is like witnessing the internet as a child—you can't afford not to learn it—and why building the learning habit matters more than what you learn first.They explore the five problems companies face with AI education: trying to generalize training when every role needs different tools, listening to tinkerers instead of bridge adopters, and delegating to chiefs of staff instead of having C-level sponsors run the trainings. Gagan shares Maven's own journey—why their design team needed to rebuild the design system before AI could be useful, how they're changing team ratios from 3-4 engineers per designer to just 2, and why social media is terrible for learning anything that requires weeks of dedication.If you're a mid-career professional feeling overwhelmed by AI, a leader trying to build a culture of self-learning at your company, or wondering how to actually integrate AI into your workflows—this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Call: 888-364-5977 or head to: https://emilyprogram.com/begin-recovery/ Host Lindsey Elizabeth Cortes interviews Dr. Jillian Lampert (Vice President of Strategy and Public Affairs at The Emily Program), who explains eating disorders as mental health diagnoses that disrupt a person's relationship with food and negatively impact life, and outlines diagnoses including anorexia nervosa (including that it can occur without visible underweight), bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and OSFED; she notes orthorexia is not currently a DSM diagnosis. They discuss why athletes are at higher risk (temperament traits like persistence, rule-focus, and high standards combined with sport pressures), warning signs such as secrecy, defensiveness, and constant preoccupation with food, and serious health consequences including RED-S impacts, cardiac risk (especially with purging and electrolyte disruption), GI issues, bone and endocrine effects, and dental damage. Dr. Lampert describes The Emily Program's full continuum of care (inpatient through outpatient, including virtual options), emphasizes individualized treatment for athletes (including decisions about training/competition), and shares Jessie Diggins' public story of treatment, recovery, relapse, and ongoing support; the episode closes with encouragement to seek help by calling or requesting contact through emilyprogram.com. Dr. Jillian Lampert, PhD, MPH, RD, LD, FAED, is the Vice President of Strategy and Public Affairs for The Emily Program, a national eating disorder treatment company. She completed her doctorate degree in Nutrition and Epidemiology and Master of Public Health degree in Public Health Nutrition at the University of Minnesota.

Episode Summary What separates world-class customer experience companies from everyone else? It's not budget. It's not luck. It's a system. In Part 1 of this two-part series on the Customer Service Revolution podcast, John DiJulius — founder of The DiJulius Group and the CX architect behind Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, Nestle, Ritz-Carlton, and top hospitals, financial institutions, and luxury resorts worldwide — begins breaking down the 10 Commandments of Customer Experience: the gold-standard methodology that has transformed how C-suite leaders design, implement, and sustain world-class customer and employee experiences. This episode covers the first half of the framework — from igniting your CX revolution to building your signature experience and creating a zero risk organization. Part 2 (next week) will cover the employee experience, training, and implementation commandments. This isn't theory. This is the actual operating system behind the most admired brands in the world — codified, structured, and sequenced so any organization can implement it. What You'll Learn in Part 1 •       Why John created the 10 Commandments: The frustration of watching great CX collapse as companies scale — and the realization that no one had ever codified how world-class companies actually do it •       Commandment 1 — Ignite the CX Revolution: How to draw a line in the sand as a CEO and make customer obsession a non-negotiable organizational commitment (includes the 'Day in the Life of a Customer' video tool used in new hire orientation) •       The Customer Experience Action Statement: Why mission statements don't drive behavior — and how one action statement built on 3 pillars aligns every employee in every interaction •       The Never & Always Tool (Customer Bill of Rights): The fastest and most immediately transformational CX tool in the framework — 8-10 non-negotiable standards that eliminate employee roulette, department roulette, and location roulette •       Commandment — Signature Experience Design: How journey mapping from the customer's vantage point creates a differentiated experience that makes your brand impossible to replicate •       Zero Risk Organization: What it truly means (hint: it's not about never dropping the ball) — and how empowering frontline employees to recover brilliantly creates loyalty no marketing budget can buy •       Above & Beyond Culture at Scale: Why telling employees to 'go above and beyond' doesn't work — and the top-of-mind awareness system that makes wow moments a daily norm •       The North Star Framework: Why 'flavor of the month' management destroys CX consistency — and how anchoring to one methodology creates shared language, accountability, and lasting culture change •       Tune in next week for Part 2: The employee experience, attraction and hiring, training and implementation, and leadership commandments Key Insights for C-Suite Leaders •       "Good isn't good enough. If you want to be the most customer-obsessed company in your industry, okay is the enemy." — John DiJulius •       "The number one CX problem is consistency — and the root cause is 100 different personal interpretations of what great service means." — John DiJulius •       "When you tell 100 employees to deliver genuine hospitality and don't define it, one person thinks a head nod counts.

What if the simplest way to build strength, improve endurance, and sharpen your mind is already sitting in your closet as an old backpack?   Rucking sounds almost too simple to matter. Add weight to a walk and head outside. Yet in this conversation, Dr. Andrew Fix and registered dietitian and RuckFit author Kayla Girgen make a compelling case that rucking may be one of the most practical tools for long-term health. It builds strength, supports bone density, elevates heart rate, and challenges posture without the joint stress that sidelines so many active adults.   The deeper insight centers on sustainability. How often do we abandon fitness because we cannot execute the perfect plan? Kayla shares how rucking helped her move beyond all-or-nothing thinking and build consistency. Weight and distance can scale with your season of life. A stroller walk becomes training. A short neighborhood loop becomes meaningful work. When paired with thoughtful nutrition and simple lifestyle shifts like better sleep and stress awareness, the results compound. What changes when we stop chasing optimal conditions and start valuing repeatable effort?   The conversation also explores metabolic health through continuous glucose monitoring and how nutrition choices, stress levels, and daily lifestyle patterns influence inflammation and energy. Awareness shapes behavior. Manageable discomfort builds resilience. Whether the load is physical or psychological, growth follows when we choose to engage.The takeaway is grounded and actionable. You do not need elite gear or ideal weather. You need a backpack, a little weight, and the willingness to step outside.   Quotes “Spending more time in nature, getting outside, and out of my head really helped calm a lot of anxiety that I was feeling at that time.”(04:00 | Kayla Girgen) “You don't have to carry obscene amounts of weight to get the benefits of rucking.”(14:11 | Kayla Girgen) “This is where I love rucking because it can help bring something like walking and help it feel like, for lack of a better term, like it counts.” (18:28 | Kayla Girgen) “Most everybody has what you need at home. So when I first started, I grabbed an old backpack. I wrapped a 10 pound dumbbell in a towel and threw it in the interior pocket.” (24:46 | Kayla Girgen) “I think the number one mistake I see with rucking is just not doing it.”(58:05 | Kayla Girgen) Connect with Kayla Girgen: Check Out Kayla's Book Visit Kayla's Website  Follow Kayla on Instagram  Subscribe to Kayla's YouTube Follow Kayla on TikTok Follow Kayla on Facebook Connect with Kayla on LinkedIn   KAYLA GIRGEN, RD, LD, CPT, is a registered dietitian, certified personal trainer, and founder of Sugar + Strength Academy—an online wellness community helping women balance blood sugar and build strength, one step at a time.

"I'm eating exactly the same way I always have, but I'm gaining weight." If this sounds like you, you aren't alone—and you aren't broken. In this episode, Dr. Rachel Pope sits down with registered dietitian Gretchen Spetz to explain why the traditional "calories in, calories out" model fails women in perimenopause and menopause.As estradiol declines, our bodies undergo a profound physiological shift. Our basal metabolic rate can drop by up to 300 calories, our "fullness" hormones become less sensitive, and our cells become more resistant to insulin. The result? Frustration, fatigue, and the "midsection creep" that seems to happen overnight.Gretchen Spetz is a registered dietitian who specializes in integrative and functional nutrition. She joins the show to provide a "food-first" roadmap to navigating these changes. We move past the grim statistics to focus on the silver lining: the specific tweaks you can make today to outsmart your biology.In this episode, we discuss: The 300-Calorie Gap: Why your metabolic rate shifts and how declining muscle mass is the primary culprit. The Satiety Struggle: Why you might feel hungry all the time and how to trigger your "fullness" hormones (GLP-1 and CCK) naturally through your diet. Insulin Resistance 101: The "Taxi Cab" analogy for blood sugar and how to avoid the mid-afternoon energy crash. Muscle-Centric Nutrition: Why 30g of protein per meal is the "magic number" for stimulating muscle protein synthesis and protecting your bones. The Fiber "Pick Two" Rule: How to hit your 25g daily fiber goal to lower chronic inflammation and support gut health. Creatine & Supplements: Why creatine is no longer just for bodybuilders and how it can help women with brain fog and strength. The "Soil Quality" Reality: How modern farming impacts the nutrients in your vegetables and how to source the best produce.About Our Guest:Gretchen Spetz, MS, RDN, LD, IFNCP, is the founder of The Functional Kitchen. She uses a functional medicine approach to help women in midlife address the root causes of chronic disease and weight management through nutrition and lifestyle.Connect with Gretchen: Website: gretchenspetzrd.com Free Guide: Protein & Fiber First Guide Instagram: @gretchenspetzrd

Applications of the New DGA   Guest: Tara Schmidt, RDN, LD Host: Kyla Lara-Breitinger, M.D., M.H.S.   Every five years, new dietary guidelines for Americans are put out by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025-2030 (10th edition) was recently published in early 2026 and has sparked some controversy with not only its visual icon, but some of its emphases as well. In this second episode reviewing the new DGA, Dr. Kyla-Lara Breitinger and Tara Schmidt, RDN, LD review what the new guidelines advise and what may be confusing for consumers.     Topics Discussed: Do you want to share a bit of history around the DGAs? What recommendations from the new DGAs align with longstanding nutrition science? Are there elements of the new guidelines that raise any concern? What should be some key nutritional focuses for Americans, given what we know about their health status?   Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

Emily's first pregnancy at twenty came in the midst of heroin addiction and an abusive relationship — and became her path to sobriety. She had an unmedicated hospital birth that, while fast, came with the usual interventions: coached pushing, an unnecessary episiotomy, and IV fluids that made breastfeeding a struggle.  Years later, after a stint as an L&D nurse left her disillusioned with the system she'd once hoped to change, Emily chose a home birth midwife for her second baby. When labor came, something quiet and deep told her she wanted to be alone. She never called the midwife. Her son was born ten minutes after she woke her husband, and the midwife later told her, "You could probably just do this on your own next time." She took it to heart. Her third baby was a fully wild pregnancy — no scans, no appointments — and a surprise breech free birth that she navigated with calm and confidence.  Her fourth, after gaining perspective from years as a postpartum nurse, led her back to minimal prenatal care and a free birth complicated by a face presentation. That experience shifted something in her. She still advocates fiercely for women trusting their intuition, but she's let go of any dogma, and says if another baby comes, she'll likely invite a trusted midwife to be with her.

Lighting Black skin isn't complicated - but it is often taught wrong. In this episode of The Nerdy Photographer, we break down how to photograph darker skin tones beautifully, accurately, and intentionally. From highlights and contrast to common lighting mistakes photographers make, this is a must-listen conversation for anyone serious about portrait photography. Learn better lighting Create stronger images Photograph people more honestly For decades, photography education, film stock, and digital camera technology have been built around a narrow definition of "correct" exposure - one that often fails Black and darker-skinned subjects. The result? Images that lack depth, nuance, and respect for the full spectrum of skin tones. In this episode of The Nerdy Photographer, we dive deep into the art, science, and responsibility of lighting Black-skinned subjects properly. This is not about shortcuts or presets - it's about understanding light, skin, and intention.

Enneagram 2.0 on a Tuesday? You heard that right! Our hosts have some exciting news to share!In this very special episode, Urânio Paes and Beatrice Chestnut greet Nisha Advani, Enneagram coach and corporate consultant. In a heartfelt conversation, Nisha share meaningful insights on the enneagram, carreer and personal journey. Learn more about her:Born and grew up in Calcutta, India. Was middle daughter of 4 children. Went to Catholic school for 13 years and was active in many extra-curricular activities. Came alone to the USA at age 17 as a Rotary exchange student; attended senior year at a local public school, and lived with a Caucasion family for a year. Town had 5,000 people and almost everyone recognized me as "their" exchange student (my birth city had over 13 million at that time and I was a nonentity.) Came to USA to study psychology and in my path, after a few detours, found social/organizational psych which was a perfect fit. Always knew i had to be very well qualified and differentiated as in India life can be fiercely competitive and it is a numbers game as well. Got an MBA to support employability, worked in NYC for some years in corporate, got my green card through horrendous circumstances, and decided to go back to school for psych. Got married to a man who was well settled in India while I was working on my doctorate. He was very supportive of my finishing my studies. Changed my dissertation topic to do a more interesting cross-cultural study on conflict resolution and spent time in India collecting data. Was too difficult to do my research in India and eventually I returned alone to NYC. Had our first child alone while there and fortunately he got his green card soon after I graduated. Have lived in CA since graduation. Worked in OD and LD in different companies for almost 20 years and about 10 years ago started my own practice as a leadership coach and OD consultant. Volunteer in a South Asian domestic violence organization. Do mindfulness meditation and yoga a few times/weeks. Have 2 children, 1 little grandchild whom I learn from continuously including with my Enneagram lens, and am in close touch with my siblings, relatives, dear friends over the years. Grateful to be living in the Bay Area. Life is abundant!Like learning about the Enneagram from Bea and Uranio?
