Psychologists Off The Clock: A Psychology Podcast About The Science And Practice Of Living Well
Caregiving is often framed as a burden, but what if it's also one of the most meaningful ways we come to know ourselves?Emily sits down with acclaimed journalist and cultural critic Elissa Strauss for this episode to discuss her extensive work on the politics and culture of parenting and caregiving, which has appeared in publications like The Atlantic and The New York Times. Centering on her new book, When You Care: The Unexpected Magic of Caring for Others, they challenge feminist notions that have undervalued caregiving and explore how caregiving can enrich one's sense of self. You'll hear about the philosophical foundations of care ethics and how caregiving for various dependents, not just children, brings profound personal growth, scientific research on caregiver well-being, the importance of male caregivers, and also the need for systemic support for caregivers.Listen and Learn: How redefining caregiving, not as a burden, but as a powerful source of meaning and self-expansion, might change what we think feminism, motherhood, and what a “full” life actually look likeHow caregiving across parenting, disability, and aging becomes an intense, surprising mirror that reshapes identity and meaning in ways most of us never expectThe research that shows why caregiving doesn't have to wear you down, and under certain conditions, it can actually make you healthier and even help you live longerHow one husband turned the challenges of caregiving into moments of quiet activism, love, and connectionHow does caring for others bring meaning, even when day-to-day life feels messy?What if the real barrier for working caregivers isn't just the glass ceiling but the glass door separating home and work, and how breaking it could change everything we value about care?Why men's brains change when they care for others, how caregiving reshapes masculinity, and what it really means for dads todayWhy caring for those closest to us isn't just personal—it's a radical philosophical lens that could change how we think about society itselfResources: When You Care: The Unexpected Magic of Caring for Others https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781982169282Elisa's Website: https://www.elissastrauss.com/Elisa's Substack: https://elissa.substack.com/Connect with Elisa on Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/elissa.strauss.7/https://www.instagram.com/elissaavery/https://www.linkedin.com/in/elissa-strauss-742720112 About Elissa StraussElissa Strauss is a journalist, essayist, and cultural critic who has been writing about the politics and culture of parenting and caregiving for more than fifteen years.

Episode 102 We hear the word love everywhere—but are we sure we're defining it the way God does?The world tells us love is a feeling, a vibe, or a specific set of actions and words. But Scripture paints a much deeper, truer picture—and it might challenge everything you've been taught to expect from love.Together, we'll open the famous “love chapter,” 1 Corinthians 13, and explore how God's standard of love is radically different from culture's version. We talk about how easy it is to be deceived into settling for emotional highs, empty promises, or surface-level affection—and why the Bible says God Himself is love.You'll discover how every description of love in 1 Corinthians 13 ultimately points to Jesus as our perfect example and standard, and what that means for your faith, your relationships, and your expectations.If you've ever wondered:What real, godly love actually looks likeHow to discern true love from counterfeitsWhy biblical love isn't just a feeling—but a reflection of Christ…this conversation is for you.

In Episode 129 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm joined by ultrarunner, coach, and host of The Everyday Ultra Podcast, Joe Corcione. Joe's story is not the typical “natural-born athlete” narrative. He wasn't active growing up, and he struggled with drugs and alcohol as a teenager and young adult. With a willingness to do the work (both physically and mentally) and make small changes, Joe gradually became sober and reshaped his identity. He went on to finish over 25 ultramarathons, coach runners around the world, and build the Everyday Ultra community.Throughout our conversation, you'll notice a powerful theme around the stories we tell ourselves and how these stories impact our behavior. Joe and I explore:How his early beliefs that he was "unathletic" held him back for years to comeWhy small, consistent changes matter more than extremesHow shifting from a fixed to a growth mindset helped him recover from addiction, start running longer distances, and determine what eating style worked best for his bodyWhy endurance athletes cannot only rely on exercise as a coping toolWhat sustainable ultramarathon training really looks likeHow he fuels himself during training runs and races
Being a tall woman comes with a whole slew of questions, right? Like “How's the weather up there?” Or “Are your parents tall?” Or “Do you play basketball?” If you cringed or got annoyed by any of these, I honestly don't blame you. However, there are other questions that tall women receive that are a bit…off. “Can I climb you?” “Can you pick me up?” “Can you step on me?” I really am amazed by what comes out of people's mouths sometimes lol. And if you're a tall girly who has experienced any of this, you are not alone. Too often, tall women are fetishized because of their height, and the same goes for the short girlies. In today's episode, we're exploring height as a fetish, why many women, both tall and short, are uncomfortable with it, and ways we can deal with it. Tune in to the full episode for more!

In this powerful episode of The Running Wine Mom, Samantha Cieslinski sits down with journalist, filmmaker, and two-time breast cancer survivor Athena Jones for an honest conversation about early detection, self-advocacy, and the racial disparities Black women face in breast cancer outcomes.Diagnosed twice before the age of 40, Athena shares how a baseline mammogram — offered years before standard screening guidelines — changed the course of her life. She opens up about navigating cancer while advancing her career, losing her mother, and learning to trust her body when something didn't feel right.Together, Samantha and Athena explore why breast cancer is often diagnosed younger in Black women, how systemic barriers impact early detection, and what “better” could look like in the future — including risk-based screening and emerging AI tools in healthcare.This episode is a reminder to listen to your body, ask better questions, and never stop advocating for yourself.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy early detection is critical — especially for women under 40How a baseline mammogram helped catch cancer at Stage 0The emotional and mental toll of a second breast cancer diagnosisWhy breast cancer outcomes are worse for Black women — and whyBarriers to screening: insurance, guidelines, bias, and accessWhat self-advocacy in healthcare really looks likeHow community and support can change treatment decisionsWhat gives hope for the future of breast cancer careResources & Links MentionedAthena Jones on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamathenajonesSisters' Keepers Documentary (in production): https://www.sisterskeepersdoc.comSusan G.

Courtney shares what she's seen from inside education and why forcing kids to meet grade-level standards can backfire — especially when kids develop at different rates.We also get into:What unschooling really means (and why it's not “kids watching TV all day”)Why school “socialization” can be toxic and what healthy socialization looks likeHow to handle screen time without power struggles (and why curiosity matters)The link between anxiety, nervous system regulation, and learningWhy many kids are labeled too early — and what parents can do insteadHow to spark learning naturally through real life, nature, conversation, and connectionA fascinating look at Human Design as a tool for understanding how your child learnsIf you're a parent who's trying to homeschool without recreating school at home — and you want your child to grow in confidence, curiosity, and love of learning — this episode will help you breathe again.

She had seven children. She competed in bodybuilding. She ran marathons. She did everything “right.” And she still needed surgery.In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with Angela — a 42-year-old mother of seven who traveled from Colorado after realizing that even elite discipline and peak fitness couldn't reverse the physical effects of pregnancy, breastfeeding, and abdominal muscle separation. At just 5'1” and 110 pounds, Angela was already competing in bodybuilding — yet loose skin, diastasis recti, and deflated breast tissue created limitations that no amount of training could fix. This conversation dismantles the myth that “working harder” eliminates the need for surgery — replacing shame with science, clarity, and empowerment. Dr. Rahban breaks down:Why even elite athletes may require surgical correction after multiple pregnanciesFat loss vs. loose skin vs. muscle separation — and why they're not the sameWhy mini-tucks often fail athletic patientsWhen vertical and anchor scars are the right choiceWhat real recovery actually feels likeHow proper surgery restores strength, posture, and performanceThe psychology of confidence, intimacy, and body ownershipHow to properly vet a surgeon — and why podcasts reveal more truth than marketingAngela also shares her honest recovery experience, returning to heavy training, and how surgery elevated not just her body — but her confidence and quality of life. This episode is for women who've maximized their health and discipline — and are ready to understand when surgery becomes a tool, not a failure.
Why "New Year, New Me" is total BS—and what to do instead.Welcome to 2026, friend! In this first episode of the year, Laurie Reynoldson takes a refreshingly honest approach to what the New Year really means for high-achieving midlife women. Forget the pressure to overhaul your life overnight. Instead, Laurie shares why easing into the year with intention—not hustle—is the secret to making real, lasting change.From dissecting the toxic “New Year, New Me” narrative to sharing her own personal story as a state-level sprinter (who, spoiler alert, always started slow and still won her races), Laurie makes the case for embracing a more sustainable—and dare we say, enjoyable—approach to the New Year.She also walks you through why the real first step isn't a new gym membership or a 4:30am alarm. It's doing your damn year-end review. (Don't worry—there's a clickable link in the show notes to help you get that done.)In this episode, you'll hear:Why fast starts fizzle—and what to do insteadHow to reset your expectations without losing momentumThe power of planning one quarter at a timeWhat “getting back to zero” actually looks likeHow to use lessons from 2025 to build a more intentional 2026Why midlife women need a different kind of January energyWhether you're feeling fired up or totally wiped out, this episode gives you the permission slip (and game plan) to do things differently this year—and make midlife your best life, one realistic step at a time.Links & Resources:

I'm Still Here: Lessons from Life with Metastatic Breast Cancer with Heather Jose
In this powerful episode, Larry and I go back to the week in December 1998 that changed our lives forever. What started as a routine appointment just before the holidays quickly became a devastating spiral of tests, unanswered questions, and the phone call that revealed I had stage 4 metastatic breast cancer at only 26 years old.We share:The moment my doctor noticed something was wrongThe shock of hearing “It's cancer” days before ChristmasThe traumatic appointment where I was told to get my affairs in orderHow a second oncologist offered hope and completely changed my prognosisWhat those early days of fear, uncertainty, and survival really felt likeHow this diagnosis became the foundation for the life and mission I have todayIf you're navigating a new cancer diagnosis, living with metastatic breast cancer, or supporting someone who is, this honest conversation is for you. This is the story I wish I could have heard back then — a story about fear, resilience, terrible doctors, life-saving doctors, and the spark of hope that carried me forward.27 years later, I'm still here. And I want you to know that hope is real.
In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact reasons why some commercial property deals stack up beautifully… and why others fall apart the moment you start doing the maths.Most investors think a deal stacks up because “the yield looks good” — but that's only one tiny part of the picture. A solid deal is built on verified income, realistic costs, a sensible purchase price, and a plan that actually works in real life, not just on paper.I'll walk you through:What “stacking up” truly means in commercial propertyThe 5 factors that make a deal workThe common pitfalls that cause even promising deals to unravelA simple checklist you can use on your next opportunityIf you've ever found yourself thinking, “This looks great… but something feels off,” this episode will help you understand exactly what to dig into before making an offer.Why verified income is your starting pointHow service charges, insurance and capex change the true pictureWhat a sensible purchase price actually looks likeHow to decide whether a deal offers upside or stabilityThe red flags that should make you walk awayA 5-point checklist to test whether a deal genuinely stacks upBook a call with my team to go through your next deal: https://ncrealestate.co.uk/bookacallTake the What Commercial Property Should You Buy Next? quiz: https://nextcommercialproperty.scoreapp.com/Explore NC Real Estate services: https://ncrealestate.co.uk/

Most people think retiring at 58 is “too early”… but after working with hundreds of pre-retirees, I can tell you — many could walk away years sooner than they think.In this episode, I break down the framework behind early retirement and show you why the biggest retirement mistake isn't leaving too soon… it's waiting too long based on outdated assumptions.You'll hear the real story of Mark and Susan — a couple who came to me at 58 feeling unsure, unprepared, and afraid they didn't have enough. With $1.8 million saved, a pension starting in two years, and a timely inheritance, we designed a strategy that allowed them to retire confidently, travel early, and enjoy their healthiest years instead of working through them.In today's episode, you'll learn:Why “the number” is one of the most misleading retirement mythsHow retirement spending naturally drops 20–30% after leaving workWhy your late 50s may be your best health and energy windowThe bridge-income strategies that make 58 retirement realistic— pensions, Roth contributions, ACA planning, and part-time workHow regret prevention should guide your timing decisionsWhat a comprehensive 58-retirement plan actually looks likeHow the Red Zone Retirement Planning Process™ supports early retireesIf you're in your mid-50s and wondering whether you're actually closer to retirement than you think, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need.Want to see whether retiring at 58 works for you?Take my free Retirement Readiness Quiz — and I'll send you a personalized planning video based on your results.How much you need to retire quiz: https://bit.ly/Adam-OlsonInvesting involves risk, including loss of principal.

Smartphones have become the default for families, but what if the default is actually harmful? In this episode, Davies Owens talks with Chris Kaspar, founder and CEO of Techless, about why modern devices were never designed with children in mind and how parents can choose a healthier path.Chris shares the moment that opened his eyes as a foster parent and explains why families today feel trapped between two extremes. Either give kids full access to the digital world or reject technology altogether. He argues that both options miss the mark. The real issue is the design, incentives, and addictive features built into mainstream phones that quietly shape identity, attention, and spiritual formation.
What if birth wasn't something to fear… but a place where heaven meets earth? In today's episode, Caitlin Svoboda shares a supernatural, pain-free home birth story that will leave you breathless.In this interview, Caitlin opens up about her sixth pregnancy, her deep trust in God's design for birth, and the unexpected spiritual encounter that forever changed how she views motherhood.

If you've ever wondered how spiritual encounters, altered states of consciousness, and the quietude phase of labor fit into the birth experience, this episode breaks it down with both awe and practicality. You'll walk away with encouragement, revelation, and a renewed sense of what God intended birth to be.Tune in to hear:How losing a baby shaped Caitlin's faith and future pregnanciesWhy she chose an undisturbed home birth with no medical interventionsThe moment she surrendered fully and slipped into a transcendent stateHer vivid vision of Jesus walking toward her holding an infantThe role of safety, support, and environment in physiological birthWhat the “quietude/rest-and-be-thankful” phase actually feels likeHow she gave birth to a 10-pound baby with no tearingWhy she believes this experience transformed her marriage and identityThe truth about pain in childbirth from a biblical and physiological lensConnect with Caitlin:sehlahmomservices.comIG: sehlah.motherhood.service Use code PODCAST to get $50 off the Pain Free Birth E-course HERECONNECT WITH KAREN:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/painfreebirth Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/painfreebirth/ Spotify Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/5zEiKMIHFewZeVdzfBSEMS Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/pain-free-birth/id1696179731Website - https://painfreebirth.com/
Almost every brand photographer has said it at some point: “My clients only want a one-hour session.” And honestly? I get why that feels true; I used to believe it too. But one-hour brand shoots are keeping so many photographers stuck, exhausted, and wildly underpaid.In this episode, we're getting into why short sessions are creating chaos (for you and your clients) and why introducing a signature session is one of the fastest ways to elevate your work, raise your prices, and get clients the results they actually want.This episode walks through what a signature session includes, how to position it, and what it takes to confidently remove “time” from your packages, so you can finally price based on value instead of minutes on your watch.We're talking:Why one-hour brand sessions lead to chaos, over-delivery, and burned-out photographersThe #1 mindset shift photographers need to stop underchargingWhat a signature session actually looks likeHow to confidently push back when clients say they “only need an hour”Why time shouldn't be on your pricing/services pageA peek inside the brand-new pricing module inside Behind the Shot (and the Black Friday deal!)Links & Resources
So many of us move through life feeling overwhelmed by our challenges, wondering what they mean about us and whether we'll ever find the calm we're looking for. If you've ever felt stuck in stress, spiraling thoughts, or emotional chaos, today's episode offers a powerful reframe that can help you see your life—and yourself—through a completely different lens.I'm thrilled to be joined by Abundance Alchemist Phillip Andrew, someone whose work I've admired for a long time and who has had a profound impact on me personally. Phillip blends science and spirituality in a way that feels accessible and grounded, and he helps people understand how powerful they truly are. In our conversation, we talk about his journey and why nervous system regulation is the foundation for creating clarity, confidence, and possibility in your life.Phillip shares how the stories we hold onto can keep us stuck, and why you don't need to revisit every detail of your past or carefully plan your future in order to feel better today. When you create safety within yourself and regulate your nervous system moment by moment, you open the door to creativity, intuition, and a sense of inner steadiness. This is where real transformation begins.You don't have to fix everything at once. You don't have to have it all figured out. One moment of regulation and awareness can ripple out in ways you may not even realize.What you'll learn:Why many of us subconsciously use victimhood as a way to feel safeWhat true emotional ownership without blaming yourself looks likeHow self-criticism becomes a subtle but powerful form of self-abuseHow science and spirituality come together through nervous system regulationSimple, moment-to-moment practices to help you build inner safety and coherenceYou can read the full show notes here.About Phillip AndrewPhillip is the founder of Abundance Alchemist™, helping people raise their consciousness, regulate their nervous system, and create abundance from identity alignment—not force.

Urinary (and yes, bowel) leakage isn't “just part of getting older”—it's a signal from your core and pelvic floor. In this straight-talk episode, physical therapist Christina Walsh, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, joins me to dismantle the shame around pelvic health and lay out a functional path forward that goes far beyond “just do more Kegels.” We cover what's really driving leaks, pressure, prolapse, urgency, and painful sex in midlife; how breath, posture, fascia, and daily toileting habits influence symptoms; when conservative care is enough—and when devices, pessaries, or surgery may be appropriate. Christina also shares practical first steps you can start today (hello, decompression and diaphragmatic breathing), plus how to talk with your partner without pushing through pain.What you'll learnWhy leaking is common—but not normal—and what it's trying to tell youThe limits of isolated Kegels and what a functional approach looks likeHow breathing, posture, sitting, and constipation ramp up pelvic pressureStaging prolapse (1–4), what's realistic to “functionally heal,” and red-flagsPainful sex in midlife: estrogen, lubrication, tone, and boundaries that helpFascia's surprising role (yes, your bladder “talks” to your neck)Links & resourceshttps://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/ (listener code Michele for $50 off)https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/ Tighten Your Tinkler free quiz https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/tinklerquizIf this helped, share it with a friend, rate the show, and hop on my weekly newsletter for midlife health, fitness, and no-BS motivation._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

I was a shy and intense kid. The kind who always wants to sit at the grownups table instead of running around with the other kids.But I noticed early on that my intensity could confuse or overwhelm others, so I learned how to be me more quietly. I poured my caring into outlets that wanted me there, like theater, writing, and my horse, who always understood me.As an adult–at podiums, in boardrooms, and even alone on my yoga mat–I would feel words pressing at my ribs. There were things I wanted to say, wanted to ask about, to try articulating, but my earnestness got buttoned up under a well-honed, cool girl armor. What if I showed my full self and it wasn't received? What if my passion made people uncomfortable? I learned to modulate, because people love passion, just not when it's too much. And that voice–the good girl, the good boss, the earnest striver–worked. Until it felt like a compression vest.Eventually, I realized that power that doesn't include caring for everyone in the room is not power I want. The bravest thing I could do wasn't to hold it all together. It was to let myself be seen caring. Today, my guest, Samara Bay, and I imagine what a future could look like if more of us cared out loud. And because she is a coach and behavior geek like me, Samara offers us a delicious exercise that we can apply to our daily lives.Samara Bay is a speech coach, author, and revolutionary voice in every sense of the word. If you haven't read her New York Times bestselling book, Permission to Speak, you're going to want to by the time our conversation is done. Samara is helping us reimagine what authority can sound like, what power can feel like, and how we can bring that into our daily practices.Samara reminds us that giving ourselves permission to speak is not a surface level change, it's cultural transformation. We are quite literally changing the sound of power.Listen to the full episode to hear:How internalized risk management patterns keep us from connecting and making a real impactHow permission to speak creates paradigm-shifting opportunities for what power sounds likeHow rewriting the internal narrative about your audience changes how you show upWhy we need to consistently practice speaking from connection instead of protectionWhy making our care and effort obvious matters for ourselves and our communitiesThree questions to ask yourself whenever you have an opportunity to speakLearn more about Samara Bay:Permission Inc.Instagram: @samarabayConnect on LinkedInLearn more about Valerie Black:The Change AgencyBecoming Power NewsletterCoachingResources:BoyMom: Reimagining Boyhood in the Age of Impossible Masculinity, Ruth WhippmanTalk to Your Boys: 16 Conversations to Help Tweens and Teens Grow Into Confident, Caring Young Men, Joanna Schroeder, Christopher Pepper Building Joyful Reflective Practices with Sara Lawson
Send us a textWhat happens when a follower of Christ faces addiction head-on? In this powerful episode of God-Sized Stories with Patricia Holbrook, author Jonathon Seidl joins Patricia for a raw and hope-filled conversation about his new book, Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic.Jonathon opens up about his battle with alcoholism, the stigma that surrounds addiction in the Church, and how he encountered God's grace in the midst of relapse, shame, and surrender. This isn't a story about perfection — it's about the messy, beautiful work of sanctification and healing when we let Jesus into our darkest struggles.
Hey, mama! If you've ever felt trapped in the binge–restrict cycle—being “good” all week only to find yourself raiding the pantry by Friday night—this episode is going to set you free. I'm joined by my friend and fellow coach, Amber Abila, who shares her powerful story of overcoming binge eating and how dieting actually creates the very problem we're trying to fix.Together, we unpack why calorie counting and over-restriction lead to overeating, how to rewire your brain to end bingeing for good, and what healthy restriction really looks like (because yes, there's such a thing!). You'll walk away with a new understanding of what's happening in your brain and how to step into real food freedom—without the guilt, shame, or “start-again-Monday” mindset.We cover:The difference between binge eating and overeating (and why both start with restriction)Why dieting and calorie counting backfire—and what to do insteadHow to recognize “mental restriction” even when you're eating enoughWhat healthy, loving boundaries with food look likeHow to sit with urges and break the binge habit for goodWhy intuitive eating alone might not be the full answerWhat real recovery and food freedom can look like long-term
If you're done following the same old fundraising playbook, the polite one that keeps your goals small and your growth stuck, this episode is your permission slip to break the rules.In The Rule-Breaker's Guide to Year-End Fundraising, I share how safe, “board-approved” strategies are quietly capping your potential, and how modern fundraisers are rewriting the rules to build momentum, trust, and record-breaking campaigns. You'll hear how one of my clients ran two back-to-back campaigns that both exceeded goals by leading with authenticity, urgency, and story, not fear or etiquette. Because the truth is, safe doesn't scale. It's time to stop waiting for approval, stop softening your message, and start leading with conviction. Rule breakers don't just raise more money, they raise more energy, excitement, and impact.Topics:Why playing it safe keeps your campaigns stuck on repeatThe biggest lie in year-end fundraising (and what to do instead)How to release the “parking brake” on your campaigns and gain real tractionWhat modern, momentum-driven fundraising looks likeHow one client ran two campaigns in a row, and hit both goalsWhy innovation looks risky until it works (and then everyone copies it)How to stop fundraising like it's 2005 and lead with courage insteadFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.
