I can hardly believe we're celebrating our 700th episode! Hitting this incredible milestone over nearly nine years of podcasting has really made me reflect on the seven powerful life lessons I've learned along the way. These aren't just for podcasters; they're universal truths that can help you in your own life too. It's been a hard but vital lesson to accept that not everybody has to love you for you to do good work, and that small wins truly do build over time, forming the consistent process that leads to genuine progress. These lessons have shaped me and the podcast, and I hope they resonate with you as much as they have with me.

I found a couple of posts that really focused on some points that I think we need to have more examples of in our world.  The first one was from Motivational Quotes (@motivational) where we are reminded about some things that really “Speaks loudest” when it comes to helping to make a difference with others.  This post goes on to share these things that do have a “loud voice”: “It's not your wallet, your title or your status. It's how you treat others that speak the loudest.” The second connection came from Coach AJ  Mental Fitness (@coachajkings) where he shares this classic reminder from one of the greats of any sport and all of history -   “John Wooden said, “Helping others is perhaps the greatest joy! You cannot have a perfect day without helping others with no thought of getting something in return.” Acts of service enrich our lives. It means selflessness, kindness, and serving. Serving is a reward by itself.” Awesome thoughts for all of us to be better for ourselves and for others too!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

This one stood out to me because I know I have fears and I know they are getting in the way of me living my life to the fullest.  It comes from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) and it's a short but powerful reminder: “The fears we don't face become our limits.” - Robin Sharma.  I have had things getting in my way for 20 + years and to top that off, not only do I know about them - a few of my best friends know it too. You see, they have been around me that long, always encouraging me that I can do these things, but the final decision needs to come from me. Another key element. Since it's been 20 or so years, I look ahead to another 20 years.  Yikes!!  I'll be just around the corner (if I'm blessed enough to see this corner) from turning 80 years old!!!! Time waits for nobody!!  I don't have all the time in the world where we think we do sometimes.  I will continue to try and “talk to myself, rather than listen to myself” in going after whatever I have to do to get through these fears. When I step back a bit, they really are not that big of a deal for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Again, it happened again. A message that not only I needed to see, but that I have been reminded about it from different places. This time it came from Power of Positivity (@LIVEpositivity) where this message was shared: “You will never hear another person's voice more than you hear your own. Be intentional about the way that you talk to yourself.”  It's an old saying that I have heard for a long time, but since I needed it as recently as this morning, I needed to share it with you. It's connected with - “talk to yourself rather than listen to yourself.”  Most of the time when I'm feeling down about things in life, I start listening to the critic inside of me, instead of the coach and cheerleader!  I know I need to continue to tap into that coach & cheerleader, without me having to wait for this quote coming back into my life.  It's something I know I need to do, want to do, and will do!!  How about you?  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Send us a textToday we're revisiting a powerful conversation that I had with Daniel Carcillo—two-time Stanley Cup champion, NHL veteran, and one of hockey's most compelling voices on mental health and resilience.This episode remains profoundly relevant as Daniel's journey from the heights of professional hockey to the depths of addiction and back to purposeful healing continues to resonate with anyone facing their own battles. His raw honesty about concussion-related trauma, opioid addiction, and the transformative power of vulnerability offers timeless insights that feel even more urgent in today's mental health landscape.What makes this conversation especially meaningful is Daniel's evolution from enforcer to healer—showing us that our greatest struggles can become our most powerful tools for helping others. His work with emerging brain health therapies and his commitment to authentic living provide hope and practical wisdom that transcends sports.If you missed this episode the first time, or if life has brought new challenges since you last heard it, Daniel's story of redemption and purpose will meet you exactly where you are. This is more than a hockey story—it's a roadmap for turning pain into purpose and finding strength in our most vulnerable moments.As well, if you are interested in receiving a free mental health journal sponsored by the Resilience Agenda based in Switzerland and Australia, please share this episode on social media and tag me.

Saw another great post that had a very simple, yet powerful reminder for all of us and it came from POSITIVITY (@PositivitySaid) “Just enjoy life. You will never be this young again.”  I sat back to let this sink in a bit and it reminds me to try and do the most with every day that I have. The things that I want to do, need to do, get to do, etc., and as I get older, some of those things (and many others), will only get more difficult with age and time adding up.  It's true for all of us - make sure we remind ourselves of this point every day!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Found a post about some really good advice that I have heard shared from others too. This one came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) where they shared: “The best weight you will ever lose is the weight of other people's opinions of you.”  I have always remembered the line that reminds us that opinions are like people's backsides, everyone has one. The world seems to be never short of others' opinions and it can be tough to not only filter through them, but to also not let them get to us. Having confidence in ourselves in things we want to do helps to focus on what we can control and not worry so much about the opinion of others. Our lives and our troubles can lighten up a bit when we get rid of those opinions from others.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Found a great post from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) “A reminder:  Bigger dreams call for healthier habits and healthier habits require more self discipline.” This is something for sure I needed to see, read, hear, think, do, etc., more of in my life. I love the simple fact that we can work on our dreams, work on our habits along with working on our self-discipline. This is, of course, easier said than done. But at least, we can for sure  control these three.  We are for sure better off taking care of these ourselves, instead of letting others or the world make those decisions for you.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

(00:00:00) Introduction to Ronda's Story (00:02:10) Understanding Pick's Disease Symptoms (00:05:04) Mother's Previous Health Battles (00:07:30) Living With Someone With Dementia (00:11:41) Anticipatory Grief and Life Lessons (00:15:25) Ocean Dream Fulfilled (00:19:12) Final Reflections and Closing Watching someone you love transform before your eyes while they're still breathing creates a unique form of grief that few discuss openly. In this deeply moving conversation, Ronda Adamo shares her family's journey through her mother's battle with Pick's disease, a rare form of frontal temporal dementia that claimed her just ten months after diagnosis.Before receiving that life-changing medical news, Ronda and her sisters faced a painful confusion as their mother's personality shifted dramatically. The godly woman they'd always known began exhibiting uncharacteristic behaviors - falling frequently, speaking in uninhibited ways, and seeming cognitively distant. Having watched their mother previously battle multiple forms of cancer, the family mistakenly attributed these changes to potential medication abuse, a misunderstanding that still weighs heavy on Ronda's heart years later."Not everything is as it seems," Ronda reflects. The diagnosis revealed their mother's brain was being altered by an accumulation of tau protein, transforming the woman they knew while her heart still beat. The family pivoted quickly from disappointment to determined support, learning what it means to grieve someone who hasn't yet died. Despite the rapid progression of the disease, they created a precious memory by fulfilling their mother's lifelong dream - walking in the ocean wearing a flowing white dress, even though winter's chill meant abandoning their original spring timeline.Ronda's story offers profound wisdom for anyone supporting a loved one through dementia: allow yourself to grieve throughout the journey, practice patience and forgiveness, and consciously choose to let positive memories burn brighter in your mind than the difficult moments. Her vulnerability reminds us that in our most painful human experiences, we can still find moments of beauty that sustain us through grief and beyond.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bereaved-but-still-me--2108929/support.

In this episode, today's episode is a special one—it's Tork's birthday, and Sawyer isn't letting that milestone slide quietly. They kick off the show with a candid, unscripted vibe (even tossing the usual intro aside) and jump straight into good-natured ribbing, birthday shoutouts, and Tork's reflections on 54 years of life.Sawyer and Tork talk about everything from starting new gym routines together, attempts at healthier living (with a few hilarious cereal confessions thrown in), and what it's really like keeping up healthy habits as you get older. The guys also dive into a thorough market update, sharing the latest on corn, soybeans, hogs, cattle, and more—plus some big news about expansions in the meat industry and what it means for rural communities.But it's not just markets and muscles. Tork gets deep, sharing hard-earned life lessons about struggle, consistency, and the importance of discipline (with a little help from Denzel Washington's wisdom). The conversation rolls from business tips and time management hacks to why coaching—even for tough, independent farmers—might just be a game changer.And, of course, what would a celebration be without a whiskey minute? The episode wraps up with a toast to memories made and lessons learned, both in the barn and out.Shop Farmer Grade

In this podcast episode, Christina discusses the importance of taking action and the hidden costs associated with staying stuck in one's current situation. She shares personal experiences and client stories to illustrate how investing in oneself, whether through time, money, or mindset shifts, can lead to significant personal and professional growth. The conversation emphasizes the need for clarity, the value of time, and the importance of reprogramming beliefs about success and self-worth.

Life doesn't always go as planned — but that doesn't mean the game is broken. In this episode, we dive into why the odds of the game sometimes change unexpectedly and why that's actually part of the game itself.We explore how our brains crave control and the illusion of control that leads us to resist change — whether it's a card dealt differently than expected or a life event that throws us off balance. Drawing on improv comedy with Wayne Brady, the timeless wisdom of Buddha's Two Arrows, and groundbreaking neuroscience research, you'll learn how acceptance and presence can help you stay calm, clear, and creative when life throws you a curveball.If you've ever felt like life “messed up” your plans, this episode is a reminder: The new card is simply the new odds. Your power comes from how you play it.Tune in to discover how to stop fighting what is, embrace the unexpected, and keep playing your best game—no matter what cards life deals you.Jump on my email list hereHere's the link to the hair thickening sprayConnect with Mesha Find Mesha on Instagram Check out Mesha's website Click here for a free mini meditation course with Mesha Click here for The Heart Sync Course with Mesha (where you learn heart coherence) Click here for a free heart meditation with Mesha Click here to learn about the power of your heart And you can always email Mesha at hello@myfriendmesha.com

Timing seems to be everything when you need a reminder that things are going to be ok, even when I get down on myself and I wonder if I will get through the troubles I'm dealing with.  Well then a couple of things - first I saw this post from Positively Present (@positivepresent) “Some of the best moments are coming… The film of your life is still playing. Some of the best moments of your life are still to come.” A wonderful reminder for me that “my movie” is still being played out and better things are coming. The second thing - it always seems to happen where I get a text, a call, an email or a message on social media from someone reaching out and lifting my spirits. I did the same to a colleague last week and then in a conversation with that colleague this past weekend, I found out the perfect timing of my message was when him and his family were dealing with something that recently had happened. Then the morning of this recording, a former student of mine reached out thanking me for our time together in my classes before she graduated 7 years ago.  That was a big uplift for me on this challenging day. Read the quote again from above - better days are coming for you too!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.
