What if the key to permanent fitness isn't found in extreme workouts or restrictive diets, but in understanding the psychology behind sustainable change?  After a decade coaching executives, entrepreneurs, and high-performers on health transformation, I've discovered that most people approach fitness backward, focusing on short-term tactics rather than building systems that last a lifetime.  This episode reveals the 7 evidence-based principles that determine whether you'll not only achieve your fitness goals but maintain them effortlessly for years to come.  We explore why exercise should never feel like punishment, how making your meals strategically "boring" can be your secret weapon, and why sleep may be the single most underrated factor in your transformation journey. You'll discover how to use behavioral science techniques like "if-then" planning to navigate challenging situations and learn why having specific strategies for your worst days matters more than what you do when motivation is high.  The truth is, in our current environment of endless choices and constant temptation, willpower alone is insufficient. By implementing these seven principles from environmental design to motivation clarity you'll build a comprehensive system that makes healthy choices automatic rather than exhausting.  Whether you're just starting your fitness journey or have been struggling with the same 10 pounds for years, these insights will transform how you approach health by working with your psychology instead of against it. The most sustainable changes don't feel like constant sacrifice but become integrated parts of a life you genuinely enjoy living.    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First Change Leadership & Culture Transformation ConsultantEXECUTIVE & OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE COACH

He highlights the need for practical skills like financial literacy and critical thinking—skills often overlooked in standard curricula.If you're ready to take your education into your own hands and embrace the journey of lifelong learning, this episode is for you.Key Takeaways: ✅ Education is a lifelong journey, not confined to school years✅ The traditional school system often fails to prepare students for real life✅ Self-education is crucial for personal and professional growth✅ Understanding your learning style can enhance your education✅ Practical skills like financial literacy are essential but often neglected✅ Reading regularly is important for continuous learning✅ The curriculum should be supplemented with real-world experiences✅ Self-help resources can bridge the gap left by traditional education✅ Education should evolve with personal goals and circumstances✅ Lifelong learning is key to avoiding stagnation and promoting mental healthResources:

In 2019, he released a graphic memoir, “They Called Us Enemy,” which detailed his childhood experience at internment camps during the Second World War.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with part two of our powerful conversation with Dr. Harold Koplewicz, President of the Child Mind Institute, and this one is packed with real tools every parent needs right now! In this episode, Dr. Koplewicz introduces his framework called “Scaffolding Parenting” and explains how it helps raise emotionally strong, self-regulating kids without hovering or over-fixing. He breaks down the difference between healthy support and helicoptering, and how to know when to step in (and when to let your child build resilience). We also get into the top questions every parent should be asking to emotionally check in with their kids, how to teach emotional literacy from preschool through the teen years, and why routines like family gratitude, reading time, and exercise are essential for mental wellness. These are tools every parent needs in their back pockets, whether your child is 3, 13, or 23!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Scaffolding parenting builds strength without overstepping. It's not about fixing—it's about supporting your child's natural growth, so they feel capable of handling life's challenges with confidence. Your routines are shaping their mental health. Family dinners, reading rituals, and screen-free zones help kids feel safe, connected, and emotionally anchored. Kids need a vocabulary for their feelings. Naming emotions helps children process them. The earlier they can say “I feel nervous” or “I feel proud,” the better they can self-regulate under stress.

Tonight's Episode Is My Podcast Series BrandonJaneauShow:Wrestling Life And On This Episode I'm Talking About Everything Happening In Wrestling Right Now

Ready for an extraordinary tale of athletic longevity? At 73 years old Rick Colella's swimming journey spans from Olympic medals to over 50 Masters World records, proving that athletic excellence knows no age limits.Colella's remarkable career began with a fourth-place finish at the 1972 Munich Olympics, followed by a bronze medal in Montreal in 1976. But what happened after his Olympic glory makes his story truly exceptional. While most elite swimmers hang up their goggles after reaching competitive peaks, Colella never fully left the water. This consistent connection with swimming—even during his decades-long Boeing career—has become his secret weapon for sustained excellence into his 70s.Now competing in the 70-74 age group with Puget Sound Masters, Colella has rewritten the record books with over 120 national records and more than 50 world records. His training approach combines old-school discipline with modern technique refinements. Despite his Olympic pedigree, Colella humbly embraced coaching feedback that completely transformed his stroke mechanics later in life. "Your breaststroke timing is terrible," his coach bluntly told him—feedback that helped him adapt to modern techniques and continue breaking records.What drives someone to maintain such dedication for decades? Colella's answer is refreshingly simple: "I just love swimming. I guess I'm not even sure I recognize how much I like it, except that I must, because I never stopped doing it." This passion extends beyond personal achievement. After their son's diagnosis with FSHD muscular dystrophy, Rick and his wife Terry founded a research nonprofit, Friends of FSHD, that now raises nearly $1 million annually—connections he credits largely to his swimming network. The organization is all-volunteer.  We have no paid staff and our sponsors cover 100% of our operating and fundraising expenses. This means that 100% of donations to Friends goes directly to fund research. Rick Colella has emerged as a legendary figure in American swimming through his extraordinary Olympic career and record-breaking achievements in Masters swimming at age 70+.• Bronze medalist in the 1976 Montreal Olympics after finishing fourth in Munich in 1972• Set more than 120 Masters national records and over 50 world records• Trains six days a week with Puget Sound Masters at age 70+• Never fully stopped swimming after his Olympic career, maintaining consistency throughout his life• Found working with a coach after years of self-directed training revealed technique flaws that needed correction• Discovered that mental preparation and attitude significantly impact performance, even decades after Olympic competition• Co-founded Friends of FSHD Research with his wife after their son's muscular dystrophy diagnosis• Organization has grown from raising $180,000 in first year to nearly $1 million annually• Emphasizes consistency as the key to swimming success at any age• Enjoys the intergenerational aspects of Masters swimming and the supportive communityWhether you're seeking inspiration for your own athletic journey or curious about the mindset of champions, Colella's story demonstrates how passion, consistency, and community create a foundation for lifelong achievement.

235. Who do you consider a lifelong friend? Someone you've known for decades? A newer friend you feel deeply bonded to? In the final episode of The Heart of Friendship series—celebrating connection, sisterhood, and shared growth—I chat with my dear friend Michelle, who I've been friends with since we were 16, for a heartfelt, funny, and honest conversation about what it means to grow up and older together. We share behind-the-scenes stories from our wild days in our 20s (like lying to our moms and driving 27 hours from Minneapolis to New Orleans for Mardi Gras just to follow a boy), reflect on how we've changed (and stayed the same), and and talk candidly about navigating our 50s without children—making peace with that, and what it's meant for our lives and friendship. Through laughter, love, and deep appreciation, we explore what it really means to keep showing up for each other over decades. This one's for anyone who knows the beauty—and the sacredness—of a friendship that lasts a lifetime. ~ ~ > A new way to work with me!

A Lifelong Song of Service: John and Lou Ann MohlerJohn and Lou Ann Mohler's story began on the campus of Cedarville University, where a Michigan girl met an Ohio boy in concert chorale. What started with a warm February day, a convertible ride to the Indian Mound, and a first date filled with talk of old girlfriends (John's idea of charm, perhaps?) bloomed into a 46-year marriage built on shared faith, music, and ministry.After college, the Mohlers began their careers as teachers — John directing bands and orchestras and Lou Ann teaching English and drama. But as their hearts leaned more toward church ministry, God led them to Patterson Park Church in Dayton, Ohio. In 1985, John stepped into a pastoral role, and what began as a small church of about 200 has flourished under their leadership.For 40 years, John has faithfully directed worship, blending hymns with modern praise songs in a way that draws generations together. With a full choir and orchestra — a rarity these days — the Mohlers have crafted a worship experience that is both reverent and joyful.Their legacy isn't just in music or programs — it's in the people. From small groups to mission trips to Albania, from raising their children in the church to mentoring younger pastors, John and Lou Ann have cultivated community all their lives.

What does true food freedom really look like—and why is it so hard to recognize when you're stuck in quasi-recovery? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, I sit down with Dr. Lara Zibarras (@drlarazib), psychologist, eating disorder recovery coach, and the voice behind The Food Freedom Psychologist. Lara shares her powerful lived experience with bulimia, orthorexia, and the trap of “wellness culture” that masqueraded as health—but kept her stuck in restriction for years. Together, we explore the societal pressures that shape eating disorders across the lifespan, including postpartum body image expectations, the lure of perfectionism, and the explosion of weight stigma online. We also unpack how mindset shifts—like moving away from all-or-nothing thinking and embracing flexibility—can be a critical part of recovery. Whether you're healing from disordered eating, supporting a loved one, or questioning the messages you've received about your body, this episode offers real talk, compassion, and insight. ABOUT DR. LARA Dr. Lara Zibarras is a Psychologist and Eating Disorder Recovery Coach, a.k.a The Food Freedom Psychologist. After spending her 20s and 30s battling food anxieties and disordered eating, finding food freedom was life-changing. Now, Lara is on a mission to help women break free from chaotic, out-of-control eating patterns to feel confident around food and in their bodies. She uses a powerful blend of psychology, mindset work and nutrition science to support her clients in making mindful food choices and building body acceptance.   Dr. Lara is located in the UK and mostly work with women in the UK. In addition, she provides coaching via Zoom and has international clients.   CONTACT & FOLLOW DR.

Lifelong anarchist and digital nomad, Maxwell Igan, stops by to talk about letting go of trying to fit into society's expectations and instead finding a path that feels right for you. Breaking that conditioning and programming can be a lonely and scary endeavor, but the alternative of staying in the Matrix feels even worse. Even if you win the Rat Race, you are still a rat. With Anarchapulco 2024 right around the corner, Max describes the situation where a Category 5 hurricane sprang into existence literally overnight and slammed into the densely packed city of Acapulco almost exactly where his house was. It will take much more than a hurricane to dampen the spirits of the anarchist community in Mexico, and the 10th anniversary of the event will take on a much different meaning this time.

Regardless of the country you live in we all face the same inssues. What does the future of podiatry look like? In this episode, I speak with three influential podiatrists from the US, Dr Ben Pearl, Dr Patrick Deheer and Dr Patrick Agnew, about the profession's past, its current challenges, and how we can inspire more students to choose podiatry as a career. We delve into marketing strategies tailored towards potential students, the importance of ongoing research, and how to silence internal negativity and foster a more unified profession.  7 Key Takeaways Podiatry is facing a global student recruitment challenge driven by poor public awareness, not a lack of value. A $1.5 million marketing campaign, Podiatry Moves the World, aims to change the narrative. Key target groups for recruitment in the US include MCAT takers, pre-health majors, and college athletes. The opportunity to become a surgeon before the age of 30 was a major motivator for students. Internal bickering and public negativity are harming the profession's appeal. Lifelong learning and mentorship are essential for long-term satisfaction in the profession.  Research is vital for innovation, and solo practitioners should find collaborative partners.  If you have any questions about this podcast episode or are looking for a speaker for an upcoming event, please email me at tyson@podiatrylegends.com, and we can discuss the range of topics I cover.
