Sara Blakely is the founder of Spanx and opens up about believing in her products and trusting her gut. She created her revolutionary brand after identifying a problem in her wardrobe: what undergarments could she wear with white pants? Blakely's answer to that question started a shapewear revolution. She used the money she earned selling fax machines to launch her products, which soon started flying off the shelves of department stores and became a wardrobe staple for millions. She sold her majority stake in Spanx in 2021 after more than twenty years at the helm. Blakely opened up to Hoda on her journey to success, embracing failure, and trusting her intuition.

On the outside, she had it all, but she was wrestling with fatigue, poor concentration, and restlessness. In her new book “High Functioning: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy”, she shares what she's learned with Hoda.

The paradox of human existence reveals itself most clearly in our relationship with change. Despite living on a planet where transformation is constant, where we ourselves evolve from infancy through adulthood and beyond, we resist letting go with surprising tenacity. This resistance often stems not from attachment to what we're holding, but fear of the unknown that follows release.Drawing from her books and personal experiences, Dr. Bethann explores the nuanced art of letting go through contemplative questions that help us understand our own resistance. "What am I gaining by holding on? Who would I be without this? What am I afraid will happen if I let this go?" These gentle inquiries create space for self-discovery without judgment, allowing us to recognize patterns that keep us clinging to what no longer serves us.Key talking points include: • We are hardwired for change yet naturally resist it out of fear of the unknown• Letting go happens in degrees - sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically• Questions like "What am I gaining by holding on?" can help us understand our resistance• Grief represents a unique form of letting go that follows its own timeline• When something dies within us through release, something new is always reborn• Trust the process of "unbecoming to become" as we shed old identities• Find joy in the unknown by remembering that love is the thread guiding us through changeReady to explore what might be waiting on the other side of release? This episode invites you to trust the process of "unbecoming to become" as you navigate your own journey of letting go. Share your experiences with release and transformation—what have you let go of that created space for something beautiful to enter your life?Join us next week for an all-new episode of Your Heart Magic and more psychology, spirituality, storytelling, and heart wisdom.--Your Heart Magic is a space where heart wisdom, spirituality, and psychology meet.

This episode features an interview with Alison Lange Engel, CEO of Ceros, a company that provides tools and services that empower companies to create interactive content with unparalleled ease and efficiency, driving customer engagement.In this episode, Alison discusses the power of interactive content and how to differentiate your brand amidst increasing noise. She and Ian dive into the importance of being unique and how creativity is a competitive advantage. Key Takeaways:Creativity is a competitive advantage, even more so as copying assets gets easier with AI. CMOs need to get their teams off the treadmill and make space for creativity, inspiration and ideation. The sea of sameness is real, especially in B2B, and the world continues to get noisier. You have to disrupt and have conviction behind your big bets; check box marketing won't cut it anymore. Originality is as important as ever, but teams have to find ways to do more with less and won't succeed if they are only trying to differentiate themselves through words, tone, or processes.Quote:  You're going to miss the opportunity to differentiate and tell a unique story, right, if you have your team on a treadmill constantly. And that's how most people feel. But, as a leader, you've got to create space for it and find inspiration. Encourage your team to bring ideas. We would bring magazine clips in. People would bring in their pets. People brought in old, you know, pictures, family mementos, what matters to them. You've gotta get to the heart and soul of what you're trying to do to kind of unlock your team and have your company, you know, feel fresh, feel modern, and have people take risks, right? Great companies take risks and you have to kind of create that environment to do that. The brands that don't, are in trouble and the brands that do are the ones that win.Episode Timestamps: *(05:50) The Trust Tree: Experiences over static content*(25:36) The ROI of creativity*(36:29) Advice for CMOs on creativity and boldnessSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

One thing that I believe women ask for that they don't allow men to have the space for sometimes is honesty. A lot of times if a man gives his honesty is usually not at the right time for women or they're feelings are more important than a man's honesty, and if a man is being honest, they're going to make that moment, not matter as much as they can because of whatever they think.My thing is if something is not directly affecting you, and someone is asked a question and they give their honest feedback on that question or answer. It is not up to you to decide if his honesty matters or not. And I feel like a lot of women struggle with men giving their honest answer for things. And if we keep putting our feelings in front of a man's honesty, we cannot then turn around and be like why do men lie so much. Most men lie because they don't wanna deal with women's feelings. Most men lie because it's easier to move through than the retaliation of their honesty.Chan & PodsThis podcast is sponsored by BetterHelpWe are all working through our everyday life, not enough hours in the day.

Guest Introduction:  In this powerful episode, we welcome Riana Malia, an advanced trauma care coach and expert in quantum biology, neuroscience, and transformational healing. She is the creator of the Clear to Create Method and Quantum Pattern Protocol, designed to help ambitious women move past trauma, break deep-rooted patterns, and step into their full potential with confidence. With over 20 years of experience, Riana has helped hundreds of women transform their lives, find love, and create personal and professional breakthroughs by tapping into the unconscious mind to uncover and heal the root causes of emotional and psychological blocks.  �� Three Game-Changing Takeaways  ✅ Your Conscious Mind Sets the Goal, But Your Unconscious Mind Makes It Happen – The mind is like an iceberg: only 10% is conscious, while 90% operates beneath the surface. True transformation happens by accessing and reprogramming the unconscious mind. (03:13)  ✅ You Have to Clear the Old to Make Space for the New – Patterns, trauma, and limiting beliefs are stored at a cellular level. Unless they are fully released, you'll keep repeating the same cycles, whether in relationships, career, or self-worth. (08:05)  ✅ Rewiring Your Brain Can Be Instant & Permanent – Quantum Time Release clears deeply embedded emotional charges without revisiting past trauma, allowing you to move forward without reliving old wounds. (21:44)  �� Key Topics & Insights  1️⃣Why "Willpower" Isn't Enough: The Real Key to Lasting Change (03:13)  ● The conscious mind can set a goal, but it's the unconscious mind that executes it. ● 90% of thoughts, behaviors, and patterns are stored in the unconscious mind, including unprocessed trauma, emotional patterns, and survival instincts. ● "If the conscious mind is the goal setter, the unconscious mind is the goal getter." ● The reason people feel stuck despite knowing what they want is that their unconscious programming keeps them repeating old patterns.  �� Impact: Understanding this concept shifts the focus from trying harder to rewiring thought patterns at a deeper level.  2️⃣Breaking Free: Why Traditional "Talk Therapy" Isn't Enough (08:05)  ● Most personal development focuses on awareness but stops short of rewiring the brain.  ● Just “releasing” emotions without installing new neurology, new strategies, and new behavior patterns keeps you stuck.  ● "People focus on releasing, releasing, releasing, but they don't replace it with anything new. So the system collapses back on itself." (06:52)  ● Quantum Pattern Protocol works at the root level, clearing stored trauma without revisiting painful memories.  �� Impact: The key to lasting change is replacing limiting beliefs with new neurological patterns, not just recognizing them.  3️⃣Quantum Time Release: How to Let Go of Emotional Baggage in Hours, Not Years (21:44)  ● Every negative emotion—anger, sadness, fear, guilt, shame—is stored like a string of marbles in the unconscious mind.  ● Quantum Time Release clears these at the root cause without requiring conscious memory of the event.  ● "Clients will say, ‘If you asked me this three hours ago, I would have cried, but now… it's gone.'" (22:42)  ● Once the emotional charge is gone, clarity, creativity, and new opportunities appear effortlessly.  �� Impact: Healing doesn't have to take years. With the right approach, transformation can happen in a matter of hours.  �� Final Thoughts  This episode is a deep dive into how to rewire your mind for success, break old cycles, and step into the life you truly desire. If you've ever felt like you're stuck in repetitive patterns—whether in relationships, career, or self-worth—Riana's methods could be the key to unlocking your unstoppable self.  �� Want to dive deeper?

In today's episode, Colleen unpacks the hidden ways we keep ourselves stuck—whether it's staying in a comfort zone that no longer serves us, running on autopilot, or avoiding the call to expand into something greater. She explores the four zones we operate from (incompetence, competence, excellence, and genius) and how staying in the wrong one can quietly drain your energy and fulfillment. Plus, she shares the one simple question you can ask yourself daily to shift into a life that feels more open, creative, and aligned. Key Takeaways: The Four Zones That Keep You Stuck Zone of Incompetence – The things you struggle with and really shouldn't be doing. Spending time here out of fear or scarcity (like trying to fix your own tech issues instead of outsourcing) wastes time and energy. Zone of Competence – You can do these tasks, but so can others. Overloading yourself here leads to burnout because you're not fully using your gifts. Zone of Excellence – The place where you thrive and others rely on you, but it keeps you comfortable and prevents you from stepping into the next level of growth. Zone of Genius – Where you feel expansive, creative, and most aligned. This is where fulfillment lives—but getting there requires releasing old patterns and allowing yourself to grow. The Emotional Test: Contraction vs. Expansion Every action, habit, or decision either expands your heart (makes you feel alive, curious, and in flow) or contracts it (makes you feel stuck, drained, or small). Noticing this difference in real-time helps you shift away from habits that keep you playing small—like overworking, people-pleasing, or numbing with alcohol. When the feeling of over-drinking meets redundancy  So many high-achievers stay stuck in the zone of competence or excellence, which leads to boredom and frustration. When we feel unfulfilled, we reach for something to take the edge off—like drinking. Of course.  The "probably" real solution?? STOP IGNORING THE PART OF YOU THAT WANTS MORE FOR YOURSELF. Actionable Steps: Check In: When you feel the overwhelming pressure from the opposite side of the mirror, ask yourself: Am I in a state of expansion or contraction? Expansion = openness, curiosity, creativity.  Contraction = stress, avoidance, overthinking, numbing. Drop It Like It's Hot: If something feels like contraction (overthinking, unnecessary busyness, perfectionism), drop it as fast as possible. Give yourself permission to delegate, simplify, or step away from things that drain you. Prioritize What Actually Moves You Forward: Identify what actions truly create change in your life. Stop wasting energy in areas that don't serve your highest potential. Make Space for Your Zone of Genius: Spend more time doing what makes you feel the most engaged and fulfilled. Trust that stepping into this space will naturally lessen your urge to numb, overwork, or self-sabotage. Homework: Start a daily practice of asking yourself:              ~Does this expand me or contract me? Make a list of things you need to let go of so you can step into more freedom, creativity, and alignment. ~Then, discard by a method of your choice.  

As life often overwhelms us with responsibilities, we must ask ourselves: what are we clinging to? This episode explores our tendency to overcommit and carry too many burdens and challenges us to reflect on what truly matters, especially as we enter the season of Lent. Our pastor shares a personal story that resonates with many, highlighting the struggle between fulfilling our obligations and making room for God.Through biblical teachings, we examine how our lives can become overloaded, including the dangers of temptation and the critical need for forgiveness. Jesus calls us to forgive not only once but continuously, thereby emphasizing the profound nature of grace in our lives. Listeners will be invited to assess whether their actions draw others closer to God or push them away, a vital aspect of our faith that extends beyond personal belief to influence community dynamics.By embracing the attitudes of service and reflection, we are encouraged to shift our mindset from entitlement to gratitude for God's grace. Discover how even the smallest faith can have extraordinary effects, challenging us to root out deep-seated bitterness and discomfort. You won't want to miss this transformative dialogue that asks not only what we need to release but also how we can truly embrace a life of faith. Tune in, reflect, and engage with us as we navigate the journey of letting go to grow more deeply in our spiritual walk.

As Senior Rabbi of Wilshire Boulevard Temple in Los Angeles for 37 years, Rabbi Steve Leder has learned and witnessed the many ways death teaches us how to live, and love, more deeply by showing us not only what is gone, but also the beauty of what remains. In this inspiring conversation from January 2024, Rabbi Leder joins Hoda Kotb to talk about life, loss and the profound way in which the two intertwine. Rabbi Leder shares his belief that in the end, there is nothing that matters but love, and the simple message that will change the way you live - it's never too late.

If you're in the middle of emotionally trying times, lost your job, death and grief over loved ones and failing relationships, we know emotional pain f*cking sucks! But what now? Sitting in these emotions forever isn't practical or healthy. So, what are the options? Bottle it up, push those feelings aside, and push through! You're hardcore, you're badass, nothing is going take you out. Just don't think about it, move on and get gritty. OR… Let the pain take over until you feel like a puddle of nothing. Everything feels hopeless, the pain is unbearable, and how could you ever smile again? Neither of these extremes are healthy ways to cope with your emotions, and as adults, if we're honest, the majority of us suck at processing emotions. We get angry and take it out on the people closest to us. We go to work sad and hurt over a fight with our partner, now we can't focus, productivity is low, and the quality of our work sucks. Susan David, Harvard medical school psychologist and author of the #1 WSJ bestseller, Emotional Agility, has some strategies we can all start implementing today to learn how to process our emotions in an effective and healthier way. Her core message is that “emotions are data, not directives.” We're facing some really challenging times ahead and we've been fighting and hoping for better days since pre-Covid. This conversation answers how to deal with the difficult thoughts and use emotions as data instead of allowing them to direct a story of you starring as the victim. You can have every valid reason to fuse with painful emotions, it doesn't mean they're helpful in the moment. Create space, observe what you're feeling, and identify the signpost.
