Podcasts about managing stress

Ken Landau talks with Dr. Ronald Duskin, author of "Manage Your Stress, Manage Your Life", who offers tips to lawyers, their clients, students and others, on how to achieve greater success in legal matters with less stress.

In this episode, Alex Quin and Michelle Chia return to the podcast after a brief hiatus to share personal and professional updates, discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, and break down the healthy habits that help them sustain long workdays without burning out. From sleep, exercise, nutrition, and stress management to setting boundaries, journaling, and personal growth, they offer practical insights for entrepreneurs looking to build successful businesses while protecting their health and well-being.Episode Outline:[00:00] Welcome Back and Life Updates[02:15] Agency Growth, New Clients, and New Books[04:20] Why We Chose Healthy Habits for Entrepreneurs[08:05] Sleep, Recovery, and Long-Term Performance[10:12] Taking Breaks, Walking, and Staying Active[12:25] Time Blocking and Productivity Systems[14:15] Setting Boundaries With Clients[16:05] Learning to Say No[17:35] WHOOP, Oura Ring, and Health Tracking[19:05] Michelle's Cortisol and Stress Story[21:40] Nutrition, Hydration, and Managing Stress[23:10] The Tarzan "Swinging Vines" Concept[25:05] Becoming Your 2.0 Self[26:40] Journaling, Books, and Personal Growth[27:50] Habits We're Trying to Change[28:40] Final Thoughts and Closing RemarksWisdom Nuggets:Sleep Is a Competitive Advantage: Entrepreneurs often treat sleep like a luxury instead of a necessity. Alex and Michelle remind us that better decisions, sharper focus, and sustainable growth all start with proper recovery. The goal isn't to work more hours—it's to make your hours more effective.Protect Your Energy: Being available 24/7 may feel like great customer service, but constant accessibility creates burnout. Setting healthy boundaries with clients, coworkers, and even family members allows you to show up at your best when it matters most.Track Your Health Like Your Business: Most entrepreneurs obsess over revenue, sales, and analytics while ignoring their own health metrics. Monitoring stress levels, sleep quality, blood work, and recovery can help identify issues early and improve long-term performance.Let Go to Level Up: Growth often requires releasing habits, relationships, or routines that no longer serve your future. Like Tarzan swinging from one vine to the next, you have to let go of the old before you can fully grab onto new opportunities.Become Your Next Version: Success isn't about staying the same person and hoping for different results. The habits, mindset, and behaviors that got you here may not be enough to get you where you want to go next. Continuous self-improvement is a requirement, not an option.Power Quotes"Your heart rhythm is a very important thing that people don't even pay attention to." - Alex Quin"It's okay to say no and it's okay to put yourself first." - Michelle ChiaConnect with Michelle:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/michellechia)Linkedin: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-chia1/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Books Mentioned:Atomic Habits — James ClearThe Road Less Stupid — Keith J.

My guest today is Dara Khosrowshahi, the CEO of Uber. Before Uber, Dara ran Expedia for thirteen years. We start with why he took this job in 2017, and a big part of that story is Daniel Ek, who told him that life is not about happiness, it is about impact. We talk about what the chaos felt like on day one, and how his family leaving Iran when he was nine shaped the way he handles pressure today.  We spend most of our time on autonomous vehicles and Uber's role as the demand aggregator in a world of physical AI. Dara explains why Uber is a supply-led company, what it will take to win, and why he expects many winners in AVs rather than one.  We also discuss Uber's $10 billion in free cash flow, the push toward a single app for everything, and what he has learned from Allen & Co, Barry Diller and Reed Hastings.

Send us Fan MailStress can quietly sabotage GLP‑1 therapies by turning up cortisol, spiking cravings, and flattening the satiety signals you're counting on. We unpack that hidden loop and share a practical playbook to lower stress, protect your appetite control, and make your plan more sustainable.We start by mapping how the HPA axis elevates cortisol and interferes with GLP‑1 secretion and action. From there, we explore the gut microbiome's role in incretin signaling and why fiber, prebiotics, and fermented foods can restore metabolic rhythm. You'll hear how small daily choices—hydration, meal timing, and protein plus fiber at each meal—smooth glucose swings and reduce the urgency that leads to overeating. We make mindfulness tangible with short breathing protocols, body scans, and progressive muscle relaxation you can layer into a busy day, plus mindful eating tactics that help fullness show up on time.Movement rounds out the plan. Aerobic sessions lower anxiety and improve insulin sensitivity, strength training supports lean mass and confidence, and yoga or tai chi blend relaxation with mobility. We explain how better sleep ties it all together, reinforcing appetite control and recovery so your medication works as intended. Throughout, we focus on simple, repeatable routines: anchor habits in the morning and evening, fiber first shopping, post meal walks, and community for accountability.If you're using semaglutide, tirzepatide, or another GLP‑1 and feel stuck, this conversation gives you the tools to reclaim momentum with a calm nervous system, a nourished gut, and a movement plan you enjoy.

She came to the US with her first year's tuition and figured the rest out from there. What followed is one of the most grounded quality leadership journeys I have heard - and one we felt was worth bringing back.Swetha Krishnan on Building a Quality Mindset from the Ground UpThis is a rerelease of one of our favourite episodes from two years ago. In today's episode I was joined by Swetha Krishnan. I really wanted to bring this conversation back because Swetha's route into quality was entirely unplanned - and the way she has turned that unplanned start into a clear leadership philosophy is something every quality professional should hear.Swetha came to the US from India to complete a master's in bioengineering at the University of Toledo. She needed work, she needed a visa sponsor, and she found her way into a contractor role at Pfizer in Connecticut doing technical writing and validation. It was not the destination she had mapped out, but two years of being moved from role to role - quality management systems, regulatory content authoring, client-facing support - gave her a cross-functional view of how a pharma company actually operates. From there she moved through roles at Biogen, Sanofi Genzyme, and Alkermes before taking on her current position leading quality across all GXPs at Mural Oncology, a clinical-stage biotech focused on cytokine-based immunotherapies for cancer.Swetha leads with a combination of strategic clarity and genuine warmth. She is honest about the things she struggled with early on - particularly the belief that credibility required having all the answers - and equally clear about what changed that. She talks about the boss at Alkermes who told her she would one day be head of quality before she believed it herself, the nine-month Women Unlimited LEAD program that gave her two external mentors, and the MIT LeadershipSignature course that asked her to examine what in her personal history shapes how she shows up every day.We talk about the following:• How a bioengineering thesis on non-invasive glucose measurement for diabetics led to an unexpected start in quality• Starting as a contractor at Pfizer and what wearing so many hats in two years taught her about the whole product life cycle• Why validation gave her a quality mindset before she had ever formally joined a quality team• The shift from individual contributor to manager to leader of teams - and why it forced her to rethink everything she thought she knew about credibility• The nine-month Women Unlimited LEAD program at Alkermes and the boss who saw her potential before she saw it herself• Quality by design in practice - being involved in CRO selection from the start, not after the contract is signed• How she manages prioritisation, managing up, and keeping her team grounded in a lean, fast-moving clinical-stage biotech• Her 4C model for aspiring quality leaders: challenge, curiosity, collaboration, and compassionSwetha is a thoughtful, pragmatic quality leader who understands how to balance compliance, collaboration and business reality in complex development environments. If you are a quality professional working in an early-stage biotech and trying to build the right systems with limited resources, then this episode is for you. You can watch on LinkedIn Live at 12pm EST today or listen via Apple or Spotify. Thank you Swetha for sharing your incredible journey. Hope everyone enjoys the show.Who This Episode Is For• Quality managers and directors in clinical-stage biotech who are building systems and leading teams without large headcounts or unlimited budgets• Aspiring heads of quality who are in the transition from individual contributor to people leader and finding that shift harder than they expected• Quality professionals who came into the function from validation, technical writing, or another non-traditional route and are still making sense of how it all connects• Senior quality leaders who want a practical framework for developing the next generation on their team• Anyone in pharma or biotech who has ever felt like asking for help put their credibility at riskTimestamps:(00:00) Introduction to Swetha Krishnan and Mural Oncology(05:08) The Importance of Quality in Biotech(11:00) The Role of Quality in Driving Strategy(16:39) Managing Stress and Prioritization(21:55) Self-Development and Continuous Learning(26:44) Advice for Aspiring Quality Leaders

Are you pushing yourself to the brink of burnout in pursuit of the superhuman entrepreneur ideal? In this episode of The Entrepreneur DNA, host Justin Colby sits down with behavioral health specialist Rachel Harvest to break down the toxic side of perfectionism and how to find true balance. Throughout this deep dive, Rachel explains why high achievers often fall into the trap of extreme dieting, caffeine dependency, and emotional suppression. You will learn about the wise mind, a powerful combination of logic and emotion that allows for better decision making and sustainable growth. The conversation covers everything from the physical toll of caffeine on your adrenals to the psychological roots of binge behaviors and the importance of setting healthy boundaries. — Rachel also introduces the concept of orthorexia, an obsession with healthy eating that can actually become harmful, and explains why your day actually starts the moment you go to sleep. Whether you are struggling with the pressure to be perfect or looking for a more functional approach to your nutrition and mental health, this episode provides a roadmap for responding to life rather than just reacting to it. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why “being healthy” can become harmful when it turns into perfectionism How caffeine can become a performance crutch instead of a ritual Why entrepreneurs often mistake burnout for discipline The difference between logic mind, emotion mind, and wise mind How binge behaviors often start with judgment and restriction Why extreme routines can be a sign of nervous system stress How your “why” drives almost every habit you have Why discernment may be the real superpower for high performers —- About Justin: Justin Colby is the host of The Entrepreneur DNA and The Science of Flipping podcasts and a best-selling author.

.."And then with a cry from his soul despairing,He bowed him down to the earth and wept. But a voice cried aloud from the driving rain;“Arise, old man, and plant again!”This week, I'm reading a poem, Disappointed, written by Paul Laurence Dunbar, published in 1913.Reflection question:Has there been a disappointment in the campaign where you need to stop and weep before moving forward?Reflection on the quote:Capital campaigns are full of some many moments that can be also hard and taxing on the staff, volunteers and the organizations.  In this series, we are looking at ways to manage the stress. Last week, we discussed the stress associated with waiting and how to use the waiting to nurture relationships with donors. This week, we will discuss areas of stress; that is, when something that seemed certain doesn't happen during the capital campaign.Because of the length of a capital campaign, it is likely that something that seemed guaranteed will fall through.  A grant is suddenly pulled.  A donor experiences a sudden financial reversal and can't give.  A key member of the campaign moves, gets sick or passes away and can no longer champion the campaign.  Or, a portion of the project has to be scaled back due to a lack of community giving. These disappointments can range from minor and yet build up to the reality best described as a “death by a thousand paper cuts.” Or, the disappointment is sudden and overwhelming.  One way we can respond is to push through and act as though the disappointment didn't happen.  Yet, we can't keep pushing without burning out.  This poem gives a third way.  Acknowledge the disappointment and pain.  And then allow yourself a time to truly despair and weep.  But, then have hope and arise again to the work of the capital campaign in your small town.What do you think?

A Deep Dive into the Vagus Nerve, Neuroception, and Overcoming Burnout Ever walked into a room and instantly felt like something was completely off? That is not your intuition being magical; that is your nervous system running the show. We spend all day trying to "think" our way out of stress, but it rarely works. Your body has a built-in threat radar called neuroception that operates entirely below your conscious awareness. When it misfires, you get the illusion of panic. You feel like you're fighting a sabertooth tiger when you're just staring at an unread email. Modern psychology calls this Polyvagal Theory. It explains why we constantly flip between the cool, collected Bruce Banner and the raging Hulk. The trick isn't fighting the Hulk. It's learning how to speak the biological language of your vagus nerve. Once you understand the mechanics of your own survival instincts, everything changes. You stop fighting your mind and start regulating your body. Use the four-four box breathing method to instantly hack your vagal tone. Restructure your morning tech habits to turn off your body's unconscious threat radar. Harness social co-regulation to lower your cortisol simply by being around safe people. Hit play to stop out-thinking your anxiety and start mastering your nervous system today. SPONSORS

"...Waiting, then, is not passive. It involves nurturing the moment, as a mother nurtures the child that is growing in her womb...”This week, I am reflecting on selected quotes from Henri Nouwen from the The Path of Waiting, published in 1995 and Bread for the Journey, published in 1996.Reflection questions:When you are meeting with donors, are you listening with full attention and waiting with the donor to discover more about themselves and their potential capital campaign donation?Think about the areas where you are waiting, is there something you can do to nurture the donor relationship?Reflection on the quote:Capital campaigns are full of some many moments that can be also hard and taxing on the staff, volunteers and the organizations.  In this series, we are looking at ways to manage the stress. Last week, we discussed feeling overwhelmed about the goal and learning into joy.  This week, we will be exploring the seasons of waiting, which can be stressful.  We wait for the right timing to ask.  We wait for donors to decide to give.  We wait for news about a grant application.  We spend a lot of time waiting.Waiting is not inactive.  Instead, it involves nurturing the moments of waiting. As we wait, we are active in nurturing relationships.  We listen and wait while donors discover more about themselves and their potential donation to the capital campaign. We give them opportunities to explore our mission, our cause, and their potential impact more deeply. We share updates to engage their interest. If we become impatient and just move onto the next new potential donor relationship, while it feel like we are doing something, in reality, we will find that the moment, that new space, is just as empty. We wait, trusting that our patient work in nurturing relationships will bring about the fruit of generosity.What do you think? Send me a text.

SummaryIn this Visionary Leader with Jim Robinson episode, Jim explores the heart of leadership and influence, championing a simple but transformative concept: serve first. According to Jim, real impact comes not from seeking personal gain, but from helping others become their best—no strings attached. He stresses that leadership opportunities are ever-present, and it's our responsibility to seize them by growing and caring for those around us.A key takeaway is the distinction between serving clients and trying to keep them. Jim argues that constantly trying to “keep” clients puts businesses in a stressful, reactive mode. Instead, if you focus on serving clients exceptionally well, loyalty follows naturally.Internal culture is also front and center. Jim shares how core values like service and treating teammates with the highest respect shape company dynamics. Whether it's the tradition of sharing pizza on Thursdays or leaving heartfelt notes, these small actions build trust and camaraderie. Genuine, empathetic communication emerges as a non-negotiable for connecting with teams and clients, with Jim noting that communicating in another's ‘language', understanding their needs and wants, and modeling vulnerability during tough times are all vital leadership skills.The episode closes with a powerful reminder: every day presents new opportunities to lead, influence, and serve. By embodying discipline, integrity, and empathy, leaders create a lasting positive impact—both inside and outside their organizations.

"...Life is so generous a giver, but we, judging its gifts by the covering,Cast them away as ugly, or heavy, or hard."This week, I'm reading a poem written by Greville MacDonald to his father George MacDonald in 1930.Reflection question:Who on your list of donors who have already given can you call this week to hold onto joy in the midst of your stress?Reflection on the quote:Capital campaigns are full of some many moments that can be also hard and taxing on the staff, volunteers and the organizations.  In this series, we will look at ways to manage the stress. It is easy to become overcome by the enormity of the capital campaign goal and the number of donors who need to be cultivated and asked.  When we are overwhelmed by the enormity of the goal and the number of donors who need to be cultivated and asked, this is when we must take the joy within our reach. One of the most beautiful ways to take hold of that joy is through stewardship of the donors who have already given.  Rather than seeing stewardship as one more task in the campaign, instead it can be a way to manage the stress.  By reaching out to donors who have already given to say thank you again and to give an update again, they will likely respond with joy and gratitude.  That joy then gives further meaning and purpose to the other cultivation and asking calls on your to-do list.The day breaks, and the shadows flee away.This work has entered the public domain.What do you think?

In this solo episode, Karl Bryan dives deep into the psychology of bouncing back after losing a coaching client, why your identity shapes every outcome in your business, and how to apply the "effort paradox" to elevate your perceived value in the eyes of prospects. With Road Dog away but sending in questions, Karl covers mindset, the art of decisive action, battling stress, and leveraging focus. It's a wisdom-packed session on self-image, taking control, and turning adversity into momentum as a business coach. Key Topics Covered Mindset After Losing a Client Karl explains why losing a client can feel like an existential threat and how it's tied to identity and survival instincts. He details the emotional cascade triggered by rejection and why reframing the story you tell yourself is critical to recovery and future growth. Building a Resilient Identity Listeners are guided through the essential questions for self-identity—who you are, what you deserve, what is right, and what is real. Karl insists true growth requires "blowing up" your old identity rather than simply improving it. The Power of Focus He differentiates between autopilot and intense focus using vivid driving metaphors, encouraging coaches to show up in their businesses like an F1 driver in a storm, not just coasting through routines. The Effort Paradox & Alex Hormozi Karl shares his admiration for Alex Hormozi, emphasizing how communicating the tremendous effort behind your services raises your value in clients' eyes. He discusses Hormozi's masterful self-marketing and relates it back to how coaches can raise their perceived worth. Execution Over Ideas He underscores that business growth doesn't come from having a mountain of ideas but from consistent, bold execution—making calls, running events, creating content daily, and inviting accountability. Alpha Presence in Sales Karl teaches the value of being an "alpha" in business interactions, commanding respect with calm confidence, rather than trying to impress through flashy displays or neediness. Managing Stress and Narrative Personal stories and analogies, like quitting smoking and daily affirmation rituals with his daughter—show how changing one's narrative and habits can reduce stress and eliminate self-sabotage. Notable Quotes "If you want to go to the next level, you don't need to improve your identity, you need to literally blow up the old one." "Every unanswered call, every unanswered text, just kind of feels like proof that there's something wrong with you. This is not a broken heart, it's a broken story." "When a client wants to cancel, you've got to stand up rather than sit down. You've got to fight for your coaching, fight for their business, and install the operating system for wild profits." "The harder it appears to do, the more value others will see. Alex Hormozi is a master of that principle." "Getting clients is easy. Getting clients is fun. Say that a hundred times to yourself every morning." "Content gets you attention. Conversations get you conversions." "A conservative suit will outsell a flashy suit every day of the week, twice on Sunday, specifically to the people you really want to close." Actionable Takeaways Reframe Client Loss: Losing a client doesn't define your worth, focus on rewriting the story you tell yourself and use it as fuel to double down on your mission and value. Blow Up Old Identity: Don't just tweak your self-image, completely reinvent it. Ask yourself: Who am I? What do I deserve? What is real? What is right? Adopt Relentless Focus: Treat key biz actions (outreach, events, follow-up) with the life-or-death intensity of a pro athlete in a playoff; autopilot won't get you anywhere meaningful. Communicate Your Effort: Don't hide how hard you work, amplify it! Show prospects the grit, hours, and massive action behind your results to increase perceived value. Take Decisive Action: Make decisions quickly with available information. Lean into creating and posting content, running events, and following up—even when you don't feel "ready." Practice Daily Affirmation & Control Your Narrative: Use affirmations and positive self-talk routines (for yourself and your family) to reinforce a winning identity and banish the narrative of self-doubt or fear. Prioritize Real Conversations: Measure your success by the number of sales and prospect conversations, not just content views. Track and grow this number relentlessly. Embody Alpha Confidence: Dress the part, speak with grounded conviction, and avoid signaling insecurity—clients buy into leaders, not showboats. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software Software (by Karl Bryan): For building a coaching business that attracts, retains, and multiplies high-end clients. Focus.com: Karl's company and resource hub for coaches wanting to scale with focus and proven systems. Order Form Close Technique: A sales script designed to elegantly guide prospects into a close. Alex Hormozi's Content: Referenced as an example of leveraging the effort paradox and high-level value communication.

Buying a home in Ireland is more than just picking a property and spending the money. The process adds stress to what could already be an emotionally charged time in your life.In Part 2 of my conversation with Andrew Rhatigan of Rhatigan Real Estate, we move beyond the process and the house itself, and into something we often don't consider: the psychology of buying property as an expat.Buying a home is already one of life's most stressful events - an international move really compounds on that stress. This comes up a lot in conversations with our clients, where they're navigating identity, family expectations, financial pressure, and a very emotional transition home.Andrew talks openly about how he absorbs some of that stress for his clients, acting as the steady hand in what can feel like a very wobbly process. We discuss why Ireland's property market can't be viewed through a laptop screen in New York or Dubai, why well-meaning family advice can sometimes cloud judgement, and why having one clear point of contact can make all the difference.Main Topics Discussed in this Episode:The Psychology of Buying Property as an Expat: Why buying a home during an international move is as much an emotional journey as it is a financial transaction – and how having the right support can steady the process.Managing Stress and Decision-Making in a Hot Market: How low stock levels, bidding disappointments, and timing pressures in Ireland's property market impact expats – and why mindset matters just as much as money.The “Tyranny of Shoulds” and Well-Meaning Family Advice: Why returning Irish in particular can feel pulled in different directions by friends and family, and how to filter advice without damaging relationships.Local Knowledge vs. Online Property Listings: The reality that Daft and Google only show part of the picture – and why on-the-ground insight into neighbourhoods, community, and future development is critical.What Working with Andrew Actually Looks Like: From the initial Property Blueprint session to full search and negotiation support, how a structured, criteria-based approach helps expats buy with clarity rather than emotion.**Special Offer from Andrew**Taxbytes For Expats listeners will get 25% off their purchase of the Property Blueprint when you mention “ExpatTaxes” upon your purchase.

In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary Lipovetsky sits down with Ariel Suazo-Maler to unpack one of the most unconventional career decisions you'll hear and the mindset behind it. With a background in neuroscience and education from Columbia University, Ariel shares how she turned down a high-level executive opportunity to pursue a role that, on paper, looked like a step backward and why that decision ultimately changed everything. Together, they break down why following logic and chasing titles can often lead you further away from real growth, how intuition and curiosity can outperform traditional career planning, and why the most impactful opportunities rarely make sense in the moment. Ariel shares the story of how a single Instagram post led her to completely pivot her path, the role of upbringing and personal loss in shaping her decision-making, and why she believes success is not linear but driven by alignment and instinct. They explore the psychology behind creators and high performers, including why so many people are waiting for permission to show up, how self-doubt and identity affect content creation, and the emotional impact of real-time feedback in the social media era. Ariel offers a unique outsider-to-insider perspective on the creator economy, challenging the assumption that content creation is frivolous and revealing the depth, structure, and strategy behind building a personal brand at scale. The conversation also dives into the operational side of Creator Method and Valeria Inc., including what it actually takes to run a high-performing creator business, why most teams struggle with clarity and communication, and how narrowing focus and defining roles can unlock efficiency and growth. Gary shares how Ariel's approach to communication, structure, and decision-making reshaped the way the company operates and why finding the right operator can transform an entire organization. This episode is a deep exploration of intuition vs logic, identity vs ego, and the hidden psychology behind both career decisions and content creation. If you are interested in personal growth, unconventional career paths, building a creator business, or understanding what it really takes to operate at a high level, this conversation will challenge how you think about opportunity and success.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by hormonal changes, skipped meals only to not lose weight, or wondered how to take control of your health in midlife, today's episode is packed with practical strategies to help you thrive. In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Amy shares her transformative journey from a stressed-out physician to a wellness advocate for women in midlife. She dives deep into understanding perimenopause and menopause, the critical role of gut health, and the importance of a solid nutrition framework. Dr. Amy also explores stress management, circadian rhythms, supplements, and why regular blood testing is key to staying on top of your health. Her upcoming book, Hormone Havoc, provides science-backed guidance to help women navigate hormonal changes and live well. Key Takeaways: Prioritizing self-care is essential for women. Gut health is crucial for hormone regulation and overall wellness. Nutrition, including 30 grams of protein and fiber, is key in midlife. Skipping meals can lead to poor food choices later in the day. Stress management and circadian rhythms profoundly affect health. Regular blood testing helps monitor hormonal and overall health. Understanding perimenopause empowers women to take control.

Rainbow is passionate about art, as seen in the upcycled clothing she creates from second-hand materials, as well as the visual arts she creates, such as murals, paintings, and tapestries. She also helps women transform through voice-empowering workshops, and she co-facilitates couples retreats and workshops with me. Stress can negatively affects both partners' well-being and relationships, often leading to increased arguments, decreased intimacy, and a general sense of disconnection. The strain of dealing with stress often affects communication, making it difficult for partners to understand each other's needs and feelings. However, it can also bring a couple together, as they demonstrate their connection and positive attunement.  In this episode, my wife Rainbow and I have a conversation of a recent stressful event in our lives and how we navigated it.

Dr. Amy Shah did everything she was supposed to do. Ivy League education. Elite medical training. Multiple board certifications. On paper, her life looked like a success. But behind the accolades, she was exhausted, disconnected, and running on stress. Then a near-fatal car accident forced her to confront a hard truth. The life she built was slowly breaking her body and mind. In this episode, Amy joins Ilana to share how a personal health crisis became the catalyst for a complete reinvention.

What happens when your body forces you to slow down — and you didn't plan to? In this deeply personal Superwoman Diaries segment, Jessica shares the aftermath of her recent car accident — not just the physical pain of a trapezius strain, but the emotional ripple effects that followed.

In this insightful MTNTOUGH Podcast episode, host Dustin Defenderfer reconnects with lifelong hunter, former backcountry guide, respected hunting voice, and entrepreneur Remi Warren for an honest check-in on his transformative 2025 journey. Remi dives deep into major life and business shifts: selling his 20+ year outfitting business after decades of guiding hard miles in wild places, acquiring Day 6 Arrows and Broadheads as a product manufacturing company focused on high-quality arrows and broadheads, overhauling nutrition with wild game meat, vegetables, consistent meals, and gut health improvements, adding marathon running and structured fitness goals to boost energy and performance, navigating intense work-life balance as a dad of two young kids, managing high cortisol and stress from multiple businesses, and stepping through fear to embrace identity-level change instead of fleeting New Year's resolutions. He shares raw reflections on how past guiding experience fuels product innovation, the emotional weight of letting go of outfitting identity, building presence with family amid entrepreneurial demands, leveraging mental toughness from mountain hunts into daily discipline, and staying always ready through faith, patience, and consistent effort. Perfect for hunters, entrepreneurs, dads, and men redefining success while staying dangerous physically, mentally, spiritually, and nutritionally.Presented by Sig Sauer.V I D E O S TO W A T C H N E X T

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Elizabeth Joseph – Antibiotics, birth control, blood sugar spikes, constant stress, mold, and heavy metal exposure. These are the forces that warp the microbiome and let opportunists expand. If the bowel is not moving, if bile and lymph are congested, if mineral status is low, and the nervous system is stuck in fight or flight, antifungals will stir chaos...

When it comes to longevity, most of the research feels clear around exercise and nutrition. We know how they affect aging and the prevention of the four diseases that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, metabolic disease, and dementia. But where do sleep, stress, and lifestyle actually fit into that picture?  In Part 1 of the 2026 Body Blueprint, Ted explained why most men over 40 age faster than they should.   In Part 2, he broke down why weight loss alone doesn't equal health.   In Part 3, he showed how men should train to preserve muscle and strength with minimal time.   In Part 4, he explained why cardio and cardiovascular fitness are essential for longevity—even if you already lift.   In Part 5, he shared a clear, evidence-based approach to nutrition that supports metabolic health, longevity, and fat loss without quitting your social life or eliminating foods you enjoy.  In Part 6, Ted turns to the most underestimated drivers of how you age: sleep, stress, and lifestyle. He explains why these factors are harder to quantify but just as powerful, how they quietly influence disease risk and recovery, and why ignoring them can undermine even the best training and nutrition plan. This episode puts the final pieces of the longevity puzzle into place.  You'll learn:    How poor sleep drives fat gain, insulin resistance, and hormonal decline  The surprising link between sleep, pain sensitivity, and chronic injuries  How chronic stress accelerates aging even in mentally tough high achievers  Objective ways to measure stress using heart rate, HRV, and blood pressure  The difference between managing stress symptoms vs. fixing root causes    What Ted discusses in this episode:  (00:00) Introduction (04:35) The Importance of Sleep for Longevity (08:42) Hormones and Sleep (16:42) Sleep Hygiene Tips (24:52) The Role of Caffeine and Alcohol in Sleep (29:35) Understanding and Managing Stress (30:08) Understanding Chronic Stress (30:42) The Importance of Recovery (32:07) Defining Stress and Its Effects (35:13) Tracking Stress with Biomarkers (40:08) Strategies for Managing Stress (47:05) The Power of Social Connections (53:12) Conclusion and Final Thoughts

I'm excited to share Part 2 of my 2025 yearend retrospective, which highlights the most impactful insights shared by our amazing guests, as determined by you, the listener. The goal of this special 2-part episode is to lay the foundation such that 2026 is your best year yet!What is incredible to me is how similar the core themes were across the different guests who joined us on the program. Not surprisingly, curiosity was a major area of emphasis. In a world of constant change, being curious about ourselves and others is vitally important to unlock our individual and collective potential.We also touched on the importance of community and belonging to create cultures of peak performance. Emotions were also discussed in depth, not as a distractor, but more as a navigational compass. Becoming friends with our inner worlds and listening intently to the lessons our emotions are trying to teach us was a crucial takeaway from this past year.Last but not least, and building on the past thread, in a world of AI, it is essential not to delegate our thinking to technology. While it is an invaluable and powerful thought partner, we, the user, needs to continue to be the thought leader. Being more mindful and intentional about the questions we ask is the key to our success! I hope these episodes provide some actionable insights you can leverage in 2026 and beyond!What You'll Learn- Curiosity: A superpower in leadership and in life- Social sensitivity and team success- The 3 C's of meaningful work: Community, contribution, challenge- AI as a leadership tool: The CRIT Framework- Cognitive diversity and team innovation- Unleashing creativity and problem finding- Embracing emotions in leadership- The power of matteringKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Personal growth, Professional Development, Uncomfortable Conversations, Team Dynamics, Individual/Collective Excellence, Mindfulness, Navigating Uncertainty, Embracing Curiosity, Asking Questions, Building Resiliency, Authentic Leadership, Psychological Safety, Positive Change, Managing Stress, Success Principles
