Ever feel like you're trying to hold it all together while the internet yells at you about seed oils? Same. In this episode, Stacy and Sarah are back together—real talk style—to unpack what happens when you're burned out on busting myths and crave more meaning. From internet trolls to emotional spoons, from doomscrolling to baby goats, we cover the full spectrum of what it looks like to live in the chaos and still make space for joy. We talk about the shift from fighting diet culture head-on to reclaiming creativity, community, and calm. Whether it's ceramics, improv, or just a well-made smoothie, this one's about finding what fills your cup (and letting go of what drains it). 00:00 | Reclaiming Meaningful Conversations   01:10 | Trolls, Trust, and Online Fatigue   02:24 | Leaving Diet Culture Behind   05:04 | Curating Your Social Media for Mental Health   08:50 | The Cost of Doomscrolling & Emotional Bandwidth   13:15 | Ceramics, Creativity, and Self-Reclamation   23:23 | Why Creative Hobbies Are Mental Health Tools   29:05 | Setting Boundaries and Choosing Joy   32:34 | Rebuilding Community and Redefining Purpose   35:43 | Letting Go of Expectations, Embracing the Present  Find Dr. Sarah: nutrivore.com youtube.com/c/drsarahballantyne instagram.com/drsarahballantyne facebook.com/drsarahballantyne tiktok.com/@drsarahballantyne threads.com/@drsarahballantyne Find Stacy: ⁠realeverything.com⁠ ⁠instagram.com/realstacytoth⁠ ⁠missionmakersart.com Learn more about your ad choices.

What if you could ditch diet culture and feel amazing in your body? In this episode, Stacy talks with the ever-wise Alicia Stafford—aka the queen of “your way” weight loss—for a conversation that's as real as it gets. Together, they talk about the messy middle of healing from disordered eating, making peace with food (yes, even dessert!), and finding a path to wellness that actually feels good. We're talking orthorexia, intuitive eating, body trust, and how to let go of the toxic rules we've been taught to follow. This one's part truth-telling, part pep talk, and full of those “OMG, me too!” moments. If you've ever struggled with food, body image, or just want to feel at home in your skin—pull up a chair.

We hold on to so many things in our life. Childhood trauma, embarassments, failures, disappointments all take up so much space that we leave little room for the successes, gratitude, hope, possibility. This meditation hopes to help the meditator remember that life is a process of letting go. One breath at a time.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of Letting Go. This is based on a book from David Hawkings. Truly life-changing book. It's very similar to Mel Robbins' recent book called The let them theory. The essence of Mel Robbins' book is that you do you and you let other people do them. Don't worry about the things you don't control. In this book Mel Robbins says that the problem is the power you give other people. Two simple words – let them – will set you free. From the opinions, drama and judgment of others. Free from the exhausting cycle trying to manage everything and everyone around you. Again you do you, focus on what you control, and let other people do them. The fundamental problem is that people try to control things they don't control. So people have to fix that.Then John gets into a life-changing book he is reading called Letting Go. John says it's taking him to the next level. And what letting go means is when things come up in your life that are frustrating, just let it go. Don't hold onto the frustration. The more you give energy to a frustration, the more it negatively impacts you. John goes on to talk about how learning this methodology is so compatible with the think it be it 12 minute a day methodology. When you feed the concept of letting go to yourself each day, you rewire your autopilot. So that's what you actually do. And you become a person that lets go.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

What happens when you have to let go? My wife Emily and I sit down for a deeply personal conversation about parenting young adults and the challenge of surrendering control. Let's go to the Story House!

In this deeply honest and vulnerable solo episode, I'm sharing why I officially retired one of the most successful programs of my career—Pitch It Perfect—and what that decision taught me about leadership, identity, and alignment. After nine incredible years, thousands of students, and millions in revenue, I felt called to evolve—not because the program stopped working, but because it no longer reflected who I am or the depth of work I now do with my clients. This episode is for anyone feeling the tension between success and self—when what once felt aligned now feels like residue. I walk you through the energetic blueprint I used to navigate this evolution, how I cleared space for my next chapter, and why letting go of what works is sometimes the bravest and most powerful move you can make.

In this reflective conversation, psychologist and author Dr. Bob Rosen examines the unspoken attachments that often shape executive behavior, frequently without conscious awareness. His framework, drawn from decades of work with leaders navigating volatility and pressure, identifies recurring psychological patterns that can impair decision-making, reduce well-being, and diminish long-term effectiveness.   Rosen outlines the dominant attachments that affect leadership behavior, each is rooted in fear, and each manifests in distinct and sometimes destructive ways. The discussion offers five key insights for senior professionals:   Attachment to Success Can Drive Burnout, Not Fulfillment. When external validation becomes the metric for self-worth, leaders risk defining their identity by performance alone. As Rosen notes, “Who you are drives what you do, not what you do defines who you are.” The antidote, he argues, is cultivating an internal orientation of abundance, recognizing that self-worth is not conditional. Unexamined Attachments Are Often Reinforced by Organizational Systems. Rosen points out that performance-based compensation and cultural norms can unintentionally reward self-absorption or control-seeking behavior in leaders, thereby entrenching these attachments further. Shifting these dynamics requires institutional as well as personal change. Emotional Maturity Is Measured by the Capacity to Sit with Discomfort. Many attachments serve to mask fear—through overwork, consumerism, perfectionism, or self-isolation. Leaders must develop the capacity to experience discomfort without anesthetizing it through compulsive behavior, a discipline Rosen describes as essential to long-term growth. Aging Offers Strategic and Personal Opportunity, If Leaders Reframe It. Rosen challenges internalized ageism and presents aging as a stage of potential, not decline. He advocates for embracing imperfection, accepting physical limits, and consciously transitioning into roles of service, wisdom-sharing, and inner peace. “You choose,” he states, “to walk a path of regret or a path of gratitude.” Self-Awareness Is a Precondition for Organizational Leadership. Rosen recommends a structured four-part process for identifying and softening attachments: awareness and acceptance, diagnosis of the underlying fear, vision of an aspirational alternative, and aligned daily action. This framework, he notes, should be viewed not as a retreat from strategy, but as a foundation for sustaining it.   The episode ultimately frames leadership not as a mastery of tasks, but as a form of inner clarity that shapes every external result. For executives in fast-moving environments, this conversation provides a disciplined yet humane approach to personal development, grounded in realism, not rhetoric.   Learn more about Bob Rosen here: https://www.bobrosen.com/   Here are some free gifts for you:   Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

In today's episode, I sit down with my incredible friend Adriana Martinez—an entrepreneur and a wife who has built and run successful businesses. What makes Adriana's story so powerful is not just her business acumen, but the deep, personal transformation she's gone through in her journey as a leader. She's someone who leads with both heart and mind, and in this episode, we dive deep into the real struggles, the lessons learned, and the challenges of leadership that don't often get talked about.About Adriana Adriana is the owner of Revel Workshop, a luxury salon focused on elevating stylists careers through top tier education and mentorship. As a personal and professional budgeting coach, she helps individuals and small business owners take control of their finances and build sustainable success. Passionate about connecting people and fostering growth, Adriana thrives on empowering others to achieve financial freedom and business excellence.The Constant Battle of LeadershipAdriana and I discussed how, in her journey as a business owner, she's learned the hard way that success is not just about achieving a goal—it's about navigating relationships. She runs two salons now, but no longer takes clients herself. Instead, she depends on the team she's built. And as any entrepreneur knows, that reliance on others can be terrifying.Adriana explained that her success is directly tied to the success of those around her. If an employee leaves, it sends a ripple effect through her business, and it's hard not to take it personally. She wants the best for her team, but at the same time, she can't help but feel disappointed and question her role as a leader when someone walks away.The Struggle with Loyalty and AbandonmentOne of the most real and raw moments came when Adriana admitted her fear of abandonment—something that I think many business owners can relate to. She's fiercely loyal, and she wants to offer the same loyalty in return. But when someone leaves, it can feel like a personal betrayal.This led us into a powerful conversation about capacity—both the capacity of those who work with you and the capacity of yourself as a leader. I asked her the tough question: Do you really expect everyone to match your capacity?Her answer was insightful: Not necessarily, but it's hard to see them leave because it feels like failure.I reminded her that no one else will ever be able to match her level of commitment and capacity, especially if they are not in the same business-owner role. And the difference between what she expects and what others can deliver is where the disappointment lies.The Hard Truth of Leadership: Not Everyone StaysAdriana shared that she knows logically that employees leave because it's time for them to grow, and that they are not abandoning her. But the emotional side of her—fueled by that deep sense of loyalty—makes it feel like a personal loss.We both agreed that this is an inherent part of business ownership. You pour so much into people, and when they leave, it can feel like everything you've built is crumbling. But the reality is, it's just part of the process. People come, people go. As leaders, we must embrace this as part of the natural flow of growth.The Importance of Words of AffirmationOne of the key moments in our conversation was when Adriana admitted something that she had long avoided—she is, in fact, a words of affirmation person. As much as she resisted it, I could tell that hearing those words of appreciation made a difference for her. She shared how she does everything for people, often with no expectation of recognition, but deep down, she craves acknowledgment.I pointed out that we often mistake confirmation for affirmation. Confirmation simply states that something is true—like a ticket for a flight. It's factual, impersonal. Affirmation, on the other hand, acknowledges the goodness of what we do and who we are. It's not about fluff—it's about recognizing effort, commitment, and value. Adriana hadn't fully embraced that she needs affirmation too, but the more we unpacked this, the clearer it became.Creating a Safe Space for VulnerabilityOne of the things I admire most about Adriana is her ability to create safety for others. She may not always want or seek affirmation, but she unknowingly creates a space where her team and clients feel safe to share, grow, and even leave when the time is right. That safety comes from trust, and I encouraged her to allow herself to experience the same kind of trust in return.Leaders often think they have to protect themselves from getting hurt, but what if we created spaces where we could allow ourselves to be seen and affirmed too?Letting Go of ControlAdriana also shared her internal battle with letting go of control. For a long time, she thought that to keep things running smoothly, she needed to handle it all herself. She resisted relying on others. But through the years, she's realized that leadership doesn't mean doing everything yourself. It means trusting others, and embracing the idea that not everyone will stay forever, and that's okay.I encouraged her to celebrate the contributions of her team, and to reframe the way she looks at people leaving. Rather than feeling abandoned, what if she saw it as the natural progression of their growth? They are moving on to the next phase of their life, and her role was to help them get there.The Takeaway: Safe Spaces and GrowthThe most powerful lesson in this episode? We need to start seeing ourselves for who we are and what we're doing. We need to recognize that, as leaders, we are not just responsible for the success of our business—we're also responsible for creating environments that allow people to thrive, grow, and sometimes move on.Adriana's story is a testament to the power of vulnerability, clarity, and affirmation. As leaders, we must be open to receiving those things just as much as we offer them.Resources MentionedJoin my free leadership workshop: https://rockygarza.com/confidence Follow Adriana on Instagram: @adrianaymartinezAdriana's website: https://revelworkshop.com Key Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Unfinished Leadership00:39 Adriana Martinez's Journey and Challenges01:27 The Struggles of Relying on Others02:47 Balancing Personal and Professional Relationships04:34 The Emotional Impact of Employee Turnover09:02 Seeking Affirmation and Appreciation17:24 Creating a Safe and Loyal Work Environment19:01 Navigating Business Challenges20:25 Reframing Employee Departures21:26 Creating a Supportive Culture22:36 Balancing Vulnerability and Strength24:38 The Importance of Affirmation25:36 Building Trust and Safety27:14 Embracing Words of Affirmation34:36 Final Reflections and EncouragementTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

What happens when your calendar looks full but your soul feels empty? How do you tell the difference between something that's safe and something that's aligned?    Through personal stories and thoughtful questions, Nesha invites you to consider what you've been holding onto out of habit, fear, or obligation, and what could open up if you made space for something better.

Meredith Goldstein writes the wildly popular Love Letters column in the Boston Globe, but for much of her life, she's viewed romantic relationships as a trap. Meredith grows up seeing the limitations of her mom's insular life, and knows she wants more for herself. It's only when the pandemic forces her to slow down that she realizes the beauty in giving attention to each moment, rather than always thinking about the next five things. Years after Meredith's mom passes away, she emulates the way she lived her life, and finds that leaning into simple routines unlocks a surprising feeling of euphoria.Each episode of Meditative Story combines the emotional pull of first-person storytelling with immersive music and gentle mindfulness prompts.

When life doesn't unfold the way we hoped, it can be tempting to see that as failure. But what if it was those moments that actually shape us the most? This week, I'm delighted to welcome Eliud Kipchoge back to the show for a second incredible conversation - recorded just days after he completed the 2025 London Marathon. Eliud is a Kenyan athlete who is widely regarded as the greatest marathon runner of all time. He has won two successive Olympic marathons and 10 major titles. And of course, he's the only athlete to have ever run a marathon in under two hours, which he did back in 2019 in Vienna as part of the 1:59 challenge. But as you'll hear in this conversation, his wisdom goes far beyond running as Eliud shares the life lessons that have shaped his journey - not just as an athlete, but as a human being. You'll also hear: Why Eliud believes discipline is what creates freedom - and how keeping promises to yourself builds the self-trust needed to face life's hardest moments Why failure is not the opposite of success, but, instead, the soil where wisdom grows How running has become a metaphor for life - with its highs, lows, unexpected challenges and the need to keep moving forward How Eliud not being able to finish his last Olympic marathon taught him more than any victory ever could The true power of community, humility, and purpose - and why Eliud still cleans toilets at his training camp despite being a global icon How planning, consistency and positive thinking guide his life - and why he believes ego is something we must all learn to let go of Throughout our conversation, Eliud speaks with warmth, humility and compassion. He challenges the idea that goals alone define success - reminding us that it's the process, the discipline and the way we show up every day that truly counts. Whether you're a runner or not, this episode is an invitation to reflect on your own mindset, your values, and your relationship with setbacks. Eliud shows us that progress isn't always linear - and that real growth often happens in the moments we never planned for. I hope you enjoy listening. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

Halfway through the year is the perfect moment to stop coasting, take inventory, and make bold, intentional moves that actually align with the life you want to build.   Corinne Morahan uses this mid-year checkpoint to challenge listeners to think like a CEO, pausing to evaluate what's working, what's draining them, and what deserves more focus in the months ahead. Sharing her own shifts in business, health, and home life, she breaks the process into three simple questions: What will you keep? What will you drop?

Send us a textWhat if your best performance doesn't come from trying harder, but from letting go? In this electrifying episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Jo Groves, coach, presenter, trainer, and unapologetic story teller, who breaks down the art and science of authentic presenting.We explore what it really means to show up: not just to deliver lines, but to create an experience. From rhythm and timing to the importance of detaching from the outcome, Jo unpacks how to move from a contrived delivery to spontaneous resonance.We dig into the inner game of performance; why "trying" kills your flow, how to condition yourself to create on demand, and what it takes to shift from the inner critic to the insightful observer, à la The Inner Game of Tennis. Jo also dives into the power of reading the room, taking creative risks, using your environment, and why needing to be liked might just make you less likable.This episode is a masterclass in dropping the performance anxiety and tapping into something real, present, and powerful. Because as Jo reminds us: if you're going to show up, SHOW UP.

Back in my days with the band, one of my bandmates used to get very frustrated with me about my feelings about recording. He felt we should record as often as possible and I was very reluctant to put our stuff on tape. (It was tape then.) I felt like, unless our work was the best it could be, we shouldn't put it down. I was fearful about having a record of myself sounding bad in any way.I was really concerned with my permanent record. I didn't want anything on it that wasn't as good as it could be. Sometimes I laugh at how dramatically I've turned around on that.To keep reading Letting Go of Perfection ⁠⁠⁠visit the Songs for the Struggling Artist blog.This is Episode 453Song: Candolin Song by Emily Rainbow DavisImage is of Bright Red Boots, circa 2001 (I don't remember who the photographer was!

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by money or unsure how to talk about it, this episode offers a refreshing and gentle way in.Highlights:1. How Childhood Shapes Money Habits - Sloan shares why our early money memories still influence how we handle finances today.2.

Tabula Rasa Mystery School – Day 7: Letting Go of the Self-ConceptIn this profound movie session of the Tabula Rasa Mystery School, David Hoffmeister introduces a deeply transformative movie experience that invites us to explore the true meaning of forgiveness, not as a personal act, but as the release of the entire illusion of time, space, and identity. Drawing from the teachings of Jesus in A Course in Miracles, David unpacks the concept of the self as a construct built by the ego to replace our true identity as the Christ.Through powerful insights and reflections, we are guided to see how the world, the body, and even our personal choices are part of a dream designed to obscure the truth. This episode delves into the fear of losing individuality, the unconscious mind's role in sustaining the illusion, and the ego's resistance to divine guidance. With excerpts from the section “Self-Concept versus Self,” David sets the stage for a cinematic journey that mirrors the path of awakening.For more information about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded live on the evening of June 11, 2025, at Casa de Milagros, Chapala, Mexico.

Launch Into the Deep A Sermon by Pasquale Granata, Elder at Victory Church in Providence, RI   Introduction and Welcome Current Speaker: Filling in for Pastor Richard and Pastor Lisa. Theme Introduction Focus: "Launch Out into the Deep" (Luke 5:1–11). Setting: Jesus by the Sea of Galilee, teaching from Simon's boat. Scripture Reading and Context Luke 5:1–11: Jesus teaches from Simon's boat, asks Simon to launch into the deep, miraculous catch of fish, call to discipleship. Background: Connection to Luke 4 (Jesus filled with the Holy Spirit, ministry in Galilee). Background and Setting Jesus' Ministry: Preaching and healing with authority and power. Response of the People: Marvel at Jesus' authority and power, unlike religious leaders. Jesus' Encounters: Life-changing for everyone he meets. The Call of the Disciples Previous Encounters: Reference to earlier meetings with Simon (Peter) and other disciples. Multiple Calls: Jesus calls Simon more than once; disciples still follow from afar, not yet fully committed. Jesus' Use of Simon's Boat Symbolism: Jesus wants to use your “boat” (your life, resources). Practicality: Jesus uses Simon's boat to reach the crowd, but also to reach Simon. The Miracle of the Catch Simon's Response: “We have toiled all night and caught nothing. Nevertheless, at your word, I'll let down the net.” Result: Immediate, overwhelming catch of fish. Disciples' Reaction: Astonishment, recognition of Jesus' authority. Discipleship and Transformation Call to Follow: Jesus tells Simon, “From now on you'll catch men.” Leaving Everything: Disciples leave their boats and follow Jesus. Sermon Application and Reflection Obeying Jesus: The importance of obedience even when it doesn't make sense. Letting Go of “Stuff”: The burden of insignificant things that keep us from following Jesus fully. Encountering Jesus: Every encounter with Jesus should be life-changing. Being Different: The call to be set apart, not to mix serving God with serving other “idols.” Personal and Contemporary Application Personal Stories: The speaker shares memories of fishing with family. Word of God: The power of God's word to break obstacles in life. Encouragement: Jesus is ready to “rock your boat” and use your life for his purpose.
