Are you feeling stuck in life, like a pumpkin in a jar? You're not alone. Many people suffer from a “mistaken identity”, not realizing their true potential or the power of their own dreams. This week on Insight Out, Doug Dane is here to show us how to use the Mistaken Identity Model to get self-discovery, freedom, and success.

He will share how to break free from limiting beliefs to discover his true self and how he transformed his life, breaking free from the oppressive jar of his past and inspiring others to do the same. Through the stories of Gandhi, mentors, and books like Think and Grow Rich, Doug was inspired to take control of his life and find who he truly was. He faced his fears and story and through this, discovered his purpose. This journey taught him that everyone has a special gift and that one can change their story and the world.

Does your marketing disappear every time you take a break? You're not alone, and it's not a consistency problem.

A way where your voice does the heavy lifting even when your body cannot.This episode is for you if:You disappear when you don't feel well and feel like you're starting over every time you come back.You want steady clients but can't keep up with posting or launching the way everyone says you should.You're scared to market because you don't know if you can handle leads on a flare week.You know you need to be consistent, but your energy just isn't predictable.You feel like you're working all the time but not seeing sustainable results.✨ Thank you for listening.

At Frost, a small liberal arts college in Massachusetts, the runners on the women's cross country team have their sights set on the 1992 New England Division Three Championships and will push themselves through every punishing workout and skipped meal to achieve their goal. But Kristin, the team's star, is hiding a secret about what happened over the summer, and her unpredictable behavior jeopardizes the girls' chance to win. Team Captain Danielle is convinced she can restore Kristin's confidence, even if it means burying her own past. As the final meet approaches, Kristin, Danielle, and the rest of the girls must transcend their individual circumstances and run the race as a team.Told from the perspective of the six fastest team members, We Loved to Run (Hogarth, 2025) deftly illuminates the intensity of female friendship and desire and the nearly impossible standards young women sometimes set for themselves.

Ashley C. Ford returns to the pod today for a deeply personal, raw, and revelatory conversation about how we can love the world, our people, and ourselves through this trying moment. We explore:  - Why we're no longer certain that “to be loved is to be known”;  - Why we resent our people when they don't understand us—and how to find more love, peace, and acceptance in our relationships;  - Abby's realization that she doesn't need to “fix” Glennon's sadness; sometimes partnership looks like staying steady while your person feels it all.  For those of us who feel lost, afraid, or alone: Ashley's wisdom and clarity are exactly what we need. Snuggle in, open your minds and your hearts. We love you.  For more of Ashley on We Can Do Hard Things:  52. FORGIVING & FINDING PEACE with ASHLEY C. FORD 53.

Steve spent more than two decades building video games, working with a team that felt more like family than coworkers. By all measures, he loved his work. But a heart attack in 2021 changed everything, and it became the moment that pushed him to rethink the one thing he'd always said he wanted someday: an early retirement.In this episode, Steve sits down with James Conole, CFP®, to share how a health scare, a divorce, and years of slowly learning how to budget and invest turned into the freedom he now wakes up to every day. He didn't leave work because he hated his job. He left because he finally understood how valuable his time had become and how much life he still wanted to live.Steve talks about losing 70 pounds, rebuilding his health through trial-and-error fitness routines, and the joy of discovering things he never had energy for during his career: jazz bands, improv lessons, spontaneous travel, and even acting classes. He also opens up about moving back to Arizona just in time to support his mom through a cancer diagnosis, a moment that revealed exactly how meaningful this new freedom is.His story is a reminder that retirement isn't just a math problem. It's a life problem that you can solve by knowing what you value and experimenting until your days feel like your own again. And for Steve, these last two and half years have been better than he imagined.Watch this episode of Retirement Reality — where real retirees share the wake-up calls, reinventions, and surprising joys that define life on the other side of work.Want to be a guest on James' show to help others by sharing your story?

If your therapy techniques only work when you're in the room, that's a problem.Many therapists unintentionally “gatekeep” their expertise and miss opportunities to boost carryover.It's the unexpected downside of being really good at direct clinical work. Don't get me wrong. Clinical judgment does matter. And some things can only be addressed by a trained clinician in a therapy room.But when every decision depends on your personal expertise and physical presence, you've made yourself the bottleneck.In this episode, I'll share how to make the shift towards clear, repeatable systems that others can follow. When you make your methods easier to teach, you make your work scalable, easier to delegate, and far more convincing to leadership.I'll tackle common misconceptions like:✅ “I can't delegate; I don't have direct reports.”✅ “I don't have time for consultation.”✅ “We never get enough time to work on skills.”Plus I share the three steps to making intervention “scalable” so your session plans can start doubling as consultation guides and training tools for others.In this episode, I mentioned Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that gives speech pathologists a framework for building language skills needed to thrive in school, social situations, and daily life. You can learn more about the program here: https://drkarenspeech.com/languagetherapyI also mentioned the School of Clinical Leadership, my program that helps related service providers develop scalable executive functioning strategies they can turn into schoolwide initiatives. You can learn more about the program here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/clinicalleadership We're thrilled to be sponsored by IXL. IXL's comprehensive teaching and learning platform for math, language arts, science, and social studies is accelerating achievement in 95 of the top 100 U.S. school districts.

Leila Rahimi, Marshall Harris and Mark Grote were joined by Score football analyst Patrick Mannelly to share his takeaways from the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

A great Big Bend trip starts with a smart plan, not a scramble. We lay out a traveler's roadmap to Terlingua—where to find the best tacos and tostadas, how to grab a table at the Starlight Theater without burning your evening, and which spots box up trail-ready lunches before you disappear into the park. From a press-lauded barbecue basket to soft-serve pints and breakfast burritos on the go, you'll get a real feel for the food scene that keeps hikers, rafters, and stargazers happily fueled.Lodging gets a glow-up with Terlingua Escondido, a pair of thoughtfully built yurts hidden just off the main road. Think full bathroom, a big fridge-freezer, AC and heat, and a stargazing dome under true dark skies. Host Jenny—once a river guide—joins us to share the ghost town's living history: mercury mining roots, roofless dances at the Starlight, and the creative freedom that birthed today's A-frames, teepees, restored Airstreams, and hipcamp sites. It's a portrait of a place with no chain hotels and plenty of character, where neighbors endure summer heat, rare winter ice, and help each other anyway.We also break down when to go and why it matters. Fall brings green hills after monsoons and flowing river days. Spring surges with energy and crowds. Winter offers mild hiking and the clearest skies. Summer rewards dawn hikers and midday nappers with empty trails and quiet nights. Use our on-the-ground tips to line up dinner, pack better lunches, and pick a stay that lets you savor the desert instead of suffering through it.Loved the guide?

What if the fastest way to grow your career isn't a straight climb but a series of smart, sideways moves that sharpen your empathy and judgment?  In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Catherine Wong, COO and CPO at Entrata, to unpack how she scales products and people by shaping cultures where every voice is invited, and the best ideas surface early. From engineering during the dot-com downturn to leading global teams through acquisitions and hypergrowth, Catherine shares the habits that turn uncertainty into momentum: practice your voice, ask for real feedback, and reward behaviors that build trust.We go deep on how product and operations intersect when you're building an operating system for real estate. Catherine explains why diverse perspectives improve outcomes and how leaders can intentionally signal what matters by recognizing thoughtful execution, not just loud opinions. Her take on the future of work is refreshingly actionable: AI changes the “how,” not the “why.” Whether you specialize or stay broad, treat curiosity like a muscle. Run small experiments, unlearn out-of-date tactics, and stay anchored to clear business outcomes.You'll hear practical frameworks for deciding under ambiguity. widen inputs, seek data, welcome dissent, and iterate with agility. Catherine also breaks down visibility tactics for women who are competent but overlooked: volunteer for updates, lead slices of complex projects, and request precise post-meeting feedback. Her story of integrating a UK acquisition while battling imposter syndrome reveals a simple truth: courage plus clarity compounds into trust, scope, and impact.If you care about culture design, product leadership, AI fluency, and building a resilient career in tech, this conversation is a blueprint you can use today. Follow along, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and subscribe to get more candid, practical conversations. Loved this one?

Zack interviews parishioner and journalist Deborah Roberts about her faith through the lens of her new book, "Sisters Loved and Treasured."

After Jesus reveals to his disciples that his sacrifice is the seed of the world's fruitfulness, he's immediately confronted by a crowd unwilling to hear it. They push back, insisting that his understanding of the Messiah doesn't match their reading of Scripture. But Jesus lovingly rebukes them, reminding them that when people reject God's revelation, they choose blindness. In this passage, we learn powerful lessons about true discipleship—what it means to receive truth with a teachable spirit, and what happens when we don't.

Sometimes the feelings we avoid the most are the very ones guiding us back to who we are meant to become. In this powerful conversation, John Merkus sits down with telehealth counsellor, executive coach, and author Dr Greg Stewart, whose work explores emotional intelligence, leadership, and discovering the strength inside our hardest emotions. From the first moment, John's thoughtful, energising presence brings out Greg's wisdom, humour and raw honesty. Together they unpack how anger, fear and sadness can become powerful tools for personal clarity, deeper connection, and stronger leadership. This is a soul-shifting conversation that stays with you.

“Bologna was unique in championing the professions of women. The home of Europe's oldest university, which has supported female students since the thirteenth century, the city considered women artists integral to its development” - Katy Hessel, The Story of Art Without MenWelcome to Episode #128:Bologna is one of those places that has that quintessential Italian feel. A medieval city with wonderful heritage and a place where tradition and conviviality are maintained. Many people love to visit for the food and there is a lot to say about the glories of the table in Bologna. I went there for art, food and wine and found myself lured by the beautiful porticoes that dominate the city and a significant visit to Santa Caterina. There are UNESCO World Heritage sites and al fresco ambience like no other. I often wonder why more people don't visit this city. It has so much to offer in terms of the magic of travel in Italy.Visit Bologna MichelleJohnston.life for the Shownotes and Visuals!A Writer in Italy InstagramSubstack - At My TableMichelle's BooksMusical Scores by Richard Johnston© 2025  A Writer In Italy - travel, books, art and lifeMusic Composed by Richard Johnston © 2025Support the show

What is a business one-liner? If the phrase alone makes you break out in a weird, panicky cold sweat because the idea of summing up your whole business in one sentence feels like emotional terrorism… you're not alone. But here's the magic: If you can nail your business one-liner, you suddenly know exactly what to put in your Instagram bio, on your website headlines, in your podcast intros, and in every “so what do you do?” moment life throws at you.Because when you can articulate the value you bring, how you're different, and why people need to buy from you — all in under 10 seconds — you hold ridiculous amounts of power.And that's what we're doing in today's episode. We're getting you to the point where, whenever someone asks, “So what do you do?” you can answer with a calm, confident, “Oh, I got this,” instead of spiraling into vague, beige fluff that makes people slowly drift away toward the tiny hotdogs.We are not doing tiny-hotdog energy today. We are doing clarity, intrigue, and that irresistible “I need that” feeling your audience should have the moment you speak.Let's dive in. In this episode, we break down:Why your one-liner is the quiet powerhouse behind your brand strategy, brand voice, and sales copy — and why most people's versions aren't actually saying anything at all. How to find the core thread your brand stands for — the bold, spicy narrative that sets you apart from the sea of sameness.Why you must dismantle a status quo to differentiate yourself (yes, the cult analogy is back, don't worry — minus the flower dresses). The “Would I buy this?” test — your new litmus test for every sentence you write.The three ingredients of a magnetic, clear, scroll-stopping one-linerReal one-liner before-and-afters from clients (including the “work smarter, do less” example that would absolutely send Lucy running to the hotdogs). 

In this episode of The Optimal Aging Podcast, host Jay Croft shares simple yet powerful holiday marketing ideas for gym owners and fitness professionals who serve clients over 50.From creative gift cards to recovery kits, Jay outlines 10 fitness-themed gift ideas that are easy to launch and designed to grow your business during the holiday season. You'll also hear how cross-promotion with local businesses can amplify your reach, and how to connect with GLP-1 users who've lost weight but aren't yet exercising.Whether you're looking for quick wins or long-term client growth, this episode is full of practical strategies to make fitness a meaningful gift this season — not just a transaction.

How much do you know about Homeopathy? Are you in a ‘thats woo woo' camp? Are you sold and sworn by it? Do you dabble somewhere between those where you've found it interesting and even useful at times, but when it comes to putting things in practice confidently and knowing what you can own, vs when you need a practitioner? Well, by the end of this hour of power you will definitely feel more clear and capable of taking the reigns on your health. Marcus Fernandez is a 30+ year homeopath, founder of the UK's biggest homeopathy school - The Centre for Homeopathic Education - and all round great teacher to help you build your confidence in remedy choosing and usage for you and your family.

If you've ever wondered what real secure attachment feels like, not the Instagram version, not the watered-down definition, but the lived, embodied, grounded experience, this episode is for you. In this final installment of the Attachment Style SOS Series, I'm walking you through what secure attachment looks like in your nervous system, your identity, your dating life, and your relationships. My hope is that this episode helps you finally understand what you're building toward and reminds you that becoming secure is your birthright.Inside the episode, we cover:What secure attachment actually feels like in your body — the calm, presence, self-trust, and openness that come from a regulated nervous system.The identity of a secure person — clear boundaries, emotional maturity, interdependence, and the ability to stay anchored in yourself.How secure attachment shows up in dating and relationships — slow-build connection, healthy conflict, choosing availability, and leaving chaos behind.If you've been listening to this series thinking, “This is what I want for myself… but I don't know how to get there,” I want you to know this:➡️ You can become securely attached.➡️ You can rewire your brain.➡️ You can return home to the version of you who trusts, loves, and receives love.And if you're ready for real support…This is the FINAL call to apply to the Empowered.Secure.Loved Program.The program has helped over a thousand people become securely attached and if your heart has been whispering “I'm meant for this,” this is your sign.

In this episode of She Means Business, Carrie sits down with long-time friend and AI strategist Rick Mulready to talk about what it really looks like to build an AI-first business in 2025 and beyond. If you've been dabbling with ChatGPT, still doing everything manually, or feeling slightly terrified you're "already behind" with AI… this conversation will feel like a deep exhale and a wake-up call all at once. Rick shares how burnout and one simple experiment with ChatGPT led him to completely reinvent his business around AI – and why he believes the biggest shift for online entrepreneurs now is moving from people manager to AI manager. Together, we explore practical, non-techy ways you can start using AI today to save hours every week, make smarter decisions, and free yourself up to do the work (and live the life) you actually want. In this episode, we talk about: How burnout and ChatGPT pushed Rick to pause his "successful" business and pivot fully into the AI space Why traditional "record once, sell forever" courses are getting outdated fast – and why Rick chose a membership model in the age of AI What it means to build an AI-first business instead of trying to bolt AI onto an old way of working The dreaded time audit and how AI can help you see where your time is really going (without a huge spreadsheet) Simple ways to use ChatGPT beyond content: time analysis, decision support, planning trips, troubleshooting real-life problems (like a broken motorhome!) How to use AI to: Draft newsletters and weekly emails in a fraction of the time Turn your FAQ doc into a "world-class" customer support assistant Analyse your P&L, ad stats, or sales pages and get clear, actionable recommendations The difference between "using ChatGPT for a task" and building AI agents that can research, ideate, draft and send things for you What it practically looks like to go from solo operator to having an AI "org chart" across marketing, operations and delivery Why aggregating your business knowledge (courses, FAQs, SOPs, offers, etc.) in one place now will make your future AI setups 10x more powerful How AI is opening up wild creative possibilities – from building apps without being a coder to helping Carrie's 6-year-old turn his stories into books and 3D characters The mindset shift we all need: choosing curiosity over fear, and committing to 20 minutes a day of "AI practice" so we don't get left behind Resources & tools mentioned Connect with Rick Mulready Website & newsletter: rickmulready.com rickmulready.com The AI Playbook® community: The AI Playbook on Skool Skool AI & automation tools we mention ChatGPT – Carrie's go-to for time analysis, meal planning, content, motorhome troubleshooting and more Claude – Rick's favourite for long-form copy like email sequences and sales pages Relay.app – no-code AI workflow + automation tool for building simple agents and workflows Relay Gamma – AI tool for creating slide decks and presentations quickly Gamma Dia – an AI-powered browser from The Browser Company that lets you "chat with your tabs" and analyse what's on your screen in real time Dia Browser (Always check current pricing and plans for these tools, as they change often.)

The style that feels like craving closeness one moment and wanting to run for the hills the next. If relationships feel like emotional whiplash, if you've ever felt “too much,” “too complicated,” or like you become a different person when you're triggered… this episode will help you understand why. As someone who lived this pattern for over a decade, this one is incredibly close to my heart.Inside the episode, we cover:What disorganized attachment actually feels like, why it shows up as emotional chaos, and the science behind your attachment system and survival system firing at the same timeIdentity fragmentation and “shape-shifting”, why you lose yourself in relationships, and how to rebuild a cohesive, secure identity from the inside outCultural misunderstandings & the ADHD link, how society mislabels this style and why emotional regulation challenges feed into ADHD (and vice versa)If you're listening and thinking, “Wow… this is me,” or “This explains so much about someone I love,” please know this: you are not broken. Your nervous system adapted to chaos—and that means you can absolutely learn safety and become securely attached.And hey, if you're ready to actually do this healing work with guidance, structure, and support… Now is the moment.The Empowered.Secure.Loved Program is closing its application doors for the year, and this is truly your final chance to grab the Black Friday Offer before it expires.

Charlie was a huge fan of Thanksgiving, both because it was Christian and because it was distinctly American.
