Off the Mats Podcast #292 features a conversation with Naomi Ives of Ivey League MMA and Crazy 88 MMA, a longtime teammate whose jiu-jitsu journey reflects the realities many practitioners face but rarely articulate in full. We discuss how she began training, the gym environments that shaped her early identity on the mats, and how consistency, setbacks, and self-perception evolved. Rather than centering the discussion on highlights alone, this episode focuses on the quieter chapters that define longevity in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. A major part of the conversation addresses injury, how it first showed up, what it took away, and what it demanded in return. Naomi breaks down the physical and mental cost of being sidelined, the uncertainty that comes with rebuilding trust in your body, and the internal work required when progress slows or stops altogether. We discuss practical changes she made during her return, including how she adjusted training intensity, partner selection, positional choices, and recovery habits, as well as the conversations she learned to have with coaches and teammates. We also explore how parenthood reshaped her relationship with training. That includes managing time and energy, redefining what a productive training week looks like, and navigating guilt on both sides of the equation, being on the mats and being away from them. Naomi reflects on what jiu-jitsu has taught her about patience and composure, and what parenting has clarified about priorities, boundaries, and sustainability in training. The episode closes with a look at where her jiu-jitsu is now and what success looks like at this stage. This is a practical, honest conversation about resilience, identity beyond performance, and staying connected to jiu-jitsu through injury, life changes, and shifting goals.

Ondanks dat hosts Muk, Bram en Mats nog steeds jong en onbezonnen zijn, nemen ze jou elke maandagmiddag fris en fruitig mee in hun chaotische, soms volwassen, maar meestal niet-zo-volwassen levens. 3 over twintig is onderdeel van Dag en Nacht Media.

Sesongfinale! Mats og Stian oppsummerer sesongen som gikk med prestisjefylte kåringer av mange slag. Hvem tar tittelen årets rundkast? Årets stjernesmell? Årets comeback?

Efter sin karriärs kanske mest intensiva år återbesöker Mats äntligen Stephen King-podden för ett samtal om allas vår mordiske Sankt bernhardshund och hur han gör sig på film! Dessutom – hundskildringar vi minns, det märkliga skräckåret 1983 och mycket mer!

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Bennie Kara - former teacher, consultant, and author of Nuthall's Hidden Lives of Learners in Action - to explore what learning really looks like beneath the surface of the classroom. Drawing on Graham Nuthall's seminal research, Bennie unpacks the idea of the three worlds of the classroom (the public, social, and private worlds of learning) and explains why observation alone can never tell us what pupils have actually learned. The conversation ranges across deep listening, talk and oracy, prior knowledge and experience, misconceptions, and the limits of short lesson drop-ins, with practical reflections on how teachers can better surface pupils' thinking without being overwhelmed by workload. Bennie also connects Nuthall's insights to contemporary debates around curriculum design, inclusion, equity, and long-term memory, arguing that learning is shaped as much by peer interaction and prior experience as by what teachers plan and deliver. It's a thoughtful, challenging episode that invites leaders and teachers alike to rethink what counts as evidence of learning - and where to look for it. Bennie Kara started her career as an English teacher in the inaugural cohort of Teach First in 2003. After 20 years' experience in education as a teacher and former deputy headteacher specialising in teaching, learning and the curriculum, she now works as a leadership coach in schools as a speaker and trainer on topics such as DEI, teaching and learning, and effective curriculum construction. She is the author of three books focusing on diversity, equity and inclusion in education. Graham Nuthall's work and research, as recorded in The Hidden Lives of Learners, sits in the intersection of her interests. She is particularly interested in the way he explores the social construct of the classroom, as well as the ways in which identity, experience and interest play into long term learning and memory. She strongly believes that effective pedagogy is rooted in the needs of students and is informed by research.

Carl chats to former General secretary of ASCL, Brian Lightman about the emergence of a new form of school partnerships known as local area based school partnerships and asks the question whether they might be an alternative to MATs for schools moving forward.

Vi är tillbaka i en rimligare tid denna vecka! Jonas, Tove och Mats samlas denna vecka kring en matig nyhetsuppdatering. Därefter snackar vi (mest Mats, om vi ska vara ärliga) lite grann om Ghost of Yotei, som vi ju bara haft med i 4-5 avsnitt tidigare. Mats har även tittat på Frankenstein på Netflix, samt spelat ett gäng spel: Power Wash Simulator 2, The Last Caretaker och det omtalade Arc Raiders. Till sist avslutar vi med att snacka lite om omsusade Apple-serien Pluribus. Tack & Förlåt! Puss Hej!

På søndag delte Mats om hvordan vi som kristne alltid vil være fremmede på jorden, og derfor trenger å vite hvor vårt virkelige hjemland er. Han utfordret oss på å være villig til å gi alt for Jesus - selv om denne verden kan behandle oss brutalt.

Vi kan inte låta bli att snacka lite om Rolands 303:a och JP-8000 men det babblas också om What A View och Münchenbryggeriet, Thunderdome och token-systemet, högerextrem dansmusik, Killen., ENTRANCE och om ett retreat med Sebastian Mullaert & Frank Wiedemann. Plus en del annat. Det här är det sista avsnittet innan vinteruppehållet - men inte om du är patron.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down again with Johan and Eliška to talk through Eliška's second Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition and Johan's role in coaching her through the process. We begin by catching up since their last appearance on the show, focusing on how Eliška's training evolved, what motivated her to compete again, and how her mindset differed heading into her second tournament. From Johan's perspective, we discuss how she has grown as an athlete and which areas of her game became priorities during preparation. The conversation moves into a detailed look at the training camp leading up to competition day. Eliška explains the technical and conditioning adjustments she made, moments during training where things began to connect, and how her routine shifted compared to her first event. Johan breaks down how he structured her preparation, the balance between reinforcing existing strengths and addressing weaknesses, and how he used situational training to expose her to uncomfortable positions common in competition. We also spend time on mental preparation, discussing nerves, confidence, and expectations for a second-time competitor. Eliška reflects on what she wanted to correct mentally from her first experience and what helped her stay composed this time. Johan shares how he approaches coaching mindset for newer competitors and the cues he emphasizes in the days leading up to a tournament. We close by reflecting on the coach–athlete dynamic, post-match takeaways, and lessons learned from this experience. Both Johan and Eliška discuss what comes next, including areas of focus moving forward and thoughts on future competitions. The episode wraps with a short round of closing questions aimed at anyone preparing for their second Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament.

Mitt i julstöket kopplar Mats Ryd och Edward Blom av med ett glas kylt Immelen från Kullabygden, det vill säga det vita vin som serverades till Nobelbankettens huvudrätt (piggvar). Nobelmenyn blir rena rama poesin när Mats läser upp de olika rätterna med alla sina ingredienser och tillbehör, och Edward berättar varför han inte fick provsmaka Nobelmenyn i SVT:s direktsändning när Sayan Isaksson var köksansvarig i Stadshuset anno 2015. Det visar sig att de båda gastronomerna har helt olika syn på såväl "kulturgröt" som på finsmakarmenyer med pytteportioner, men Edward avslöjar också att han inte alls är glupsk!Poddens strävan är att få alla att som en kulturgärning dricka mer av goda starkviner, och denna gång sker det säsongsenligt genom att föreslå portvinsglögg (eller varför inte brûlot).Edward slår ett slag för julbordets mångfald – det vill säga att poängen inte är att hänga upp julmaten på enstaka rätter, utan att duka upp med så många rätter som möjligt. Mats däremot slår ett slag för sillinläggningar, och får en helt ny bild av Edward när de listar sina respektive kalla fiskfavoriter. Dessutom diskuterar de på vilken av julbordets sju turer som "Janssons frestelse" hör hemma, och konstaterar att den numera klassiska och alltmer populära ansjovisgratängen (som fick sitt namn efter en film 1928) passar in på hela tre stycken av dem!Avslutningsvis önskar podden alla lyssnare en lugn och fridfull julhelg med mycket mys (kanske i sällskap med nästa poddavsnitt, som kommer på juldagen)!Frågor och annat skickar ni med fördel till vår redaktör: podden@edwardblom.seHar ni tekniska frågor eller undrar om något som har med prenumerationen att göra skriver ni till: support@underproduktion.sePodden finns på: https://underproduktion.se/edwardblomssmorgasbord, med vartannat avsnitt öppet (som detta) och vartannat bakom betalvägg.

In this episode of The SEND Network Podcast, Georgie is joined by Ginny Bootman to discuss how SENDCOs can manage meetings in the best way possible. They discuss what can be done pre, during and post each meeting to support children and their parents carers. Roy Leighton's website (mentioned in this episode) can be found here.About GinnyGinny has been teaching longer than she hasn't. She has been a Headteacher, Senior Manager and Class teacher, teaching all ages in the Primary age range. Working to support SENDCOs and teachers across special, primary and secondary schools, Ginny is able to bring experience, wisdom and common sense to an area that can sometimes get bogged down in jargon and paperwork. Her view is that by 'flattening the hierarchy' schools are more able to connect fully with their families. In doing so, they are better placed to help build the home-school trust so sorely needed in order to help vulnerable children thrive. Through her highly-regarded book and also her published articles, podcast appearances and speaking engagements for schools, MATS and national events such as The National SEN Conference, The Education Show Wales and NASEN Live, Ginny shares straightforward tips and ideas that save time and energy for all those working with our most vulnerable children. Drawing on her lived experiences as a working SENDCO, Ginny quickly relates to her audience and not only reassures them about the important work they are doing at a difficult time but also challenges them – nicely, kindly and with humour – to be even better.She is the Author of ‘Independent Thinking On Being A SENDCO' and has recently become an Associate of Independent Thinkinghttps://www.independentthinking.co.uk/speakers/ginny-bootman/

Ze heeft met haar brand

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with Jenn Holmberg, co-host of the Chokeholds and Chill Podcast, to talk about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as more than just a sport. Jenn shares how she first found jiu-jitsu, what her early training years were like, and the mentors and experiences that helped shape her approach to life on and off the mats. We also talk about how she balances training, podcasting, and everyday responsibilities, and what jiu-jitsu has come to represent in her life. We spend time unpacking the origin of Chokeholds and Chill—why Jenn and her co-host Mallory felt there was space for a different kind of conversation within the BJJ community, how they choose topics and guests, and how podcasting has influenced Jenn's connection to grappling culture. From there, the conversation shifts to the ways jiu-jitsu intersects with mental health, self-awareness, motivation, and personal growth, especially during seasons when life outside the gym feels heavy. We wrap up by talking about why honest conversations about life and jiu-jitsu matter, and what meaningful success looks like beyond medals and belt promotions, before closing out with a rapid-fire round focused on training, music, food, and lessons learned along the way.

Paul Lim zeigt auch im Alter von 71 (!) Jahren noch sein ganzes Können auf der Darts-Bühne. Der "Singapore Slinger" gewinnt völlig überraschend gegen Jeffrey de Graaf - und darf kurz vor Weihnachten gegen Luke Humphries ran. Der Weltmeister von 2024 setzte sich in seinem Auftaktmatch trotz ein paar zwischenzeitlicher Probleme am Ende souverän gegen Ted Evetts durch. Den deutlichsten und souveränsten Sieg des Tages hat aber ein Deutscher eingefahren: Gabriel Clemens gibt gegen Alex Spellman beim 3:0-Satzerfolg nur ein einziges Leg ab. In Runde 2 wird es gegen Wessel Nijman deutlich schwieriger. Der Niederländer trumpfte gegen Karel Sedlacek auf. Die ausführliche Analyse von WM-Tag 3 gibt es in dieser Folge mit dem heutigen Gast Mats Nickelsen vom NDR. Der Podcast wird vermarktet durch die Ad Alliance.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Jude Arkwright, headteacher of St Michael's CE, Aldbourne, to explore how a strong culture of professional trust, research-informed practice, and professional development can transform teaching and learning. Jude shares how long-term staff stability and coaching triplets have created a school where teachers openly examine the smallest instructional details in real time, and where feedback is immediate, supportive and precise. The conversation then turns to St Michael's much-admired approach to continuous provision through to the end of Year 2, unpacking what high-quality, well-planned play looks like in practice, how it builds knowledge and self-regulation, and why it is anything but low-rigour. Packed with concrete examples - from tutor tables and small-group teaching to deliberately designed environments and routines - this episode offers a compelling picture of how alignment between curriculum, pedagogy and culture can create calm, purposeful classrooms where children and adults thrive.Jude Arkwright is Headteacher of St Michael's CE Aldbourne. She leads the school's successful Year One and Year Two continuous provision. Here is the way it is described: Research and our school experience tells us that young children learn best through play and exploration, this is why we have built on the excellent practice found in Reception. We have found our approach gives the children time to think and explore, in a culture, which supports both the adults and the children. We have seen close relationships build, a strong sense of well-being as well as greater levels of enthusiasm for learning by adults and children alike. The curriculum is exciting, creative and dynamic enabling skills and knowledge to be applied so that children can purposefully build on what has already been learnt as well as identifying what the children need to learn next to ensure they are all successful learners.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with returning guest and white belt, Robyn Henderson, to talk through her experience competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for the first time. We look at when the idea of competing shifted from intimidating to achievable, how she prepared while balancing her training schedule with life, and what helped her manage nerves leading up to the event. Robyn walks me through the full competition-day experience, from arriving at the venue and warming up to the moment the referee started the match to the adrenaline dump and emotions that followed. She shares what worked, what didn't, what surprised her, and what she learned about her jiu-jitsu during and after the match. We also discuss how competition exposed both strengths and gaps in her game, how the experience has changed the way she trains, and whether she plans to compete again.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with Mallory Ingalls, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner and co-host of the Chokeholds and Chill podcast. We talk about her background as a lifelong athlete, her history in softball, being a Buffalo Bills fan, and how her competitive mindset shaped the way she approaches training and coaching in BJJ. Mallory shares what first brought her to the mats, how she balances training with work, podcasting, and everyday responsibilities, and the lessons she carries from the gym into her life outside of it. We also get into the origins of Chokeholds and Chill, the intention behind the show, and why representation, honesty, and real conversations matter in the BJJ community. Mallory offers her perspective on belonging, connection, and the changes she's seen in the culture of the sport, along with moments where she felt disconnected and what helped her return with clarity. We move into mindset, identity, and the challenges that come with burnout, self-doubt, and growth, both on the mats and behind the mic. Mallory talks through how training has shaped her confidence, how she handles difficult seasons, and what she would tell new grapplers, especially women, who may feel unsure of where they fit. We also spend time exploring creativity, collaboration, and what podcasting has taught her about herself and the greater BJJ community. The Rapid Fire segment closes things out with a look at her personal preferences and quirks before we wrap up with her reflections on the journey so far and where listeners can find her online.

Hur leder man egentligen generation Z – och vad kan näringslivet lära av ett seglingsteam på internationell nivå? I vårt senaste samtal möts Mats och Oscar i en öppen och energifylld diskussion om ledarskap, motivation och hur man bygger team som verkligen utvecklas. Oscar delar insikter från seglingens högtryckszoner där feedback är direkt, besluten måste sitta och ledarskapet skiftar mellan delaktighet och tydlighet på en sekund. Mats kopplar det till arbetslivet och hur vi kan skapa arbetsmiljöer där unga talanger både växer och tar plats. Det handlar om mod, tempo, trygghet – och att våga leda olika generationer på olika sätt. Nyfiken på hur sportens lärdomar kan lyfta ditt team?

Det doftar glögg, kryddor, jul och rentav vinter när Mats Ryd och Edward Blom möts i poddstudions fåtöljer.Mats drömmer om engelska, handgjorda läderkängor, och har tydliga idéer om hur man medelst statliga interventioner skulle kunna få fart på såväl brittisk som svensk ekonomi – medan Edward är milt avvaktande eller möjligen svagt positiv till hans förslag om handelsutbyte och garverier.Vi får höra mer om groggen "Yngsjömordet", vad som menas med "Hundraklubben" som Mats är medlem i och hur många adventskalenderpaket Edward har slagit in.Dagens tema är kokböcker, och de båda gastronomerna har gott om förslag på objekt som är nödvändiga att ha i kokbokshyllan – såväl historiska husmanskostklassiker och läroböcker i haute cuisine à la Escoffier som nostalgiska verk från barndomens eskapader i köket och kokböcker för den som just flyttat hemifrån. Några av verken får nog räknas som något oväntade i sammanhanget!Avslutningsvis blindtestar Mats och Edward tre sorters julmust och talar om den klassiska, svenska juldryckens kulturhistoria.Supportfrågor om poddtjänsten och prenumeration: support@underproduktion.seLyssnarfrågor och respons: gunilla@edwardblom.se

In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I sit down with Alejandro to unpack what ten years inside one of the toughest jiu jitsu cultures in the country can teach us about leadership, loyalty, and personal growth. We dig into how a broken season in his life led him to a mentor who changed everything, why the Daisy Fresh laundromat became a proving ground for world class competitors, and how the same principles that shape great fighters also shape great teams. Hope you enjoy Chris Why You Should Listen [00:02:36] How one mentor's belief and availability created lifelong loyalty and a culture people wanted to be part of [00:11:03] What living and training in an old laundromat taught fighters about discipline, discomfort, and eliminating excuses [00:21:00] The long, unglamorous process behind becoming a world class grappler and why consistency beats talent over time [00:25:39] How wrestling and jiu jitsu build confidence, emotional control, and character in kids and adults alike [00:36:05] How Alejandro revived a dead high school program by applying the same leadership principles that shaped him on the mat Did you know...

In this episode, I sit down with BJJ Brown Belt Kyle Rocke from Crazy 88 MMA to talk through how he found Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and what shaped his early development on the mats. Kyle shares what originally drew him toward martial arts, how his time in the Marines influenced his mindset, and how he moved from Krav Maga into BJJ. We look back at his first year training at Ivey League MMA, including those late 11 p.m. classes, the early learning curve, and the challenge of balancing training with everyday life. Kyle reflects on the people who guided him, coaches like Danny Ives and the upper belts who played key roles in his progression. He also revisits the early moments that confirmed he was on the right path, including how his background in rock climbing helped him adapt to training in the gi. We continue by examining his growth from white to blue belt and the lessons that carried him into purple and now brown belt. Kyle talks about managing plateaus, injuries, and periods of self-doubt, as well as what has kept him consistent through the grind. He shares how teaching and mentoring others changed his perspective, and how competition shaped his development and his thoughts on competing again. Outside of BJJ, we talk about how training has impacted his life at work, at home, and in how he stays grounded. Kyle opens up about the habits, hobbies, and routines that help him stay balanced and what advice he gives beginners who struggle to maintain consistency. We wrap up with a quick rapid-fire round.

Drawing on over 35 years of experience as a headteacher, Ofsted inspector, and international trainer, Ann shares how her work now centres on helping leaders grow into their roles, embedding sustainable approaches to diversity and inclusion through initiatives like the RACE Charter Mark, and exploring how technology can empower rather than replace teachers.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with Mendi Carlson and Kari Summers to talk about the Unbreakable Jiu-Jitsu Women's Camp coming in February of 2026 and the work they're doing to strengthen community and support women on the mats. We discuss how the idea for the camp developed, what it takes to build a space where women can train without pressure, and how the weekend format will bring together training, connection, and shared experience. Mendi and Kari explain how their paths in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu shaped their approach to leadership and why creating a women's-only environment has become an important part of their mission. We explore their views on competition, mindset, and the technical areas they believe make the biggest difference for women as they progress in the sport. We also talk through the challenges of organizing safe and constructive open mats, maintaining a safe culture during training, and planning for the future event. Whether you're new to jiu-jitsu, a competitor, or someone interested in building stronger training communities, this conversation offers insight into the purpose behind Unbreakable and how it continues to evolve.

In this episode, Regent grad and spiritual director Carolyn Watts shares about her life and learnings from serving as an obstetrician in Afghanistan until a debilitating chronic illness (POTS) ended her medical career. Reflecting on her memoir, Risking Rest, Carolyn shares how her obstetrical training gave her images for interpreting God's intimate care for us, as well as His invitations to us to rest from our labours. Carolyn also shares about the gifts of singleness, trusting God in challenging circumstances, and living a restful life with God amid pressures, demands and personal limitations. Throughout the conversation, she conveys God's gentleness and loving kindness, which continues to meet her in her limits, enabling her to relinquish her drivenness.Carolyn's BioCarolyn Watts is an obstetrician, author, and spiritual director. She completed an MATS at Regent College, where she began working on Risking Rest: Embracing God's Love Through Life's Uncertainties. In her memoir, she shares her experience of living and working in Afghanistan, and her journey with chronic illness that prevented her from continuing to practice medicine, but led her deeper into the heart of God. Born in Ontario and raised in Nova Scotia, Carolyn is preparing to return to Nova Scotia after living in Vancouver for the past sixteen years.Regent College Podcast Thanks for listening.

Efter ett drygt års paus drar Edward Blom och Mats Ryd nu igång sin smörgårdsbordspodd igen. Signaturmelodin, samtalsämnena och alkoholromantiken är intakta, så att alla lyssnare kan känna sig helt trygga – men ljudteknikern Anders Lundström är ny, och kanske har de tvenne poddpratarna några fler repor i lacken än tidigare. Eller "med lite mer wabisabi", som Mats uttrycker det.Under inmundigande av lite belgisk öl och en hel del champagne diskuterar de tu hösten som varit, exempelvis Edwards "55-årsfest, med en air av 50-årsfirande", vad han gjorde i Visby domkyrka nyligen och listeria-utbrottet på krogen Coco&Carmen i Stockholm.På uppdrag av en lyssnare listar de fem goda eller rentav mycket goda anledningar till att dricka alkohol, men de hinner inte riktigt komma fram till om hinkgroggen "Yngsjömordet" – apropå ännu en lyssnarfråga – skulle kunna vara en sjätte eller ej (troligen inte).Mats oroar sig för att Edward ska drabbas av "Barbara Streisand-effekten" och tillsammans lanserar de begreppet "åsten", vilket syftar på någon eller något som är "till åsyn i en rännsten" (exempelvis en kandidat för det av Bellman påhittade sällskapet Bacchi Orden).Välkomna att skicka lyssnarfrågor till: podden@edwardblom.se !

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, Coach Brandon “Thor” Davis returns to reflect on training at Ivey League MMA, his current work at Crazy 88, and how his approach to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai has evolved. We talk about the role of specialists in modern MMA and how coaching and teaching influence personal growth on and off the mats. The conversation shifts briefly to football and NFL officiating, and how decision-making and rule enforcement relate to combat sports. Thor and I discuss what makes someone a reliable teammate, why proper drilling matters, and which techniques we prefer, or try to avoid during training. We also look at the challenges that shape long-term progress before closing the episode with a round of rapid-fire questions.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Catherine Priggs and Hugh Richards, co-authors of Secondary History in Action, to dig into what great history curriculum and leadership look like in practice. They discuss starting with a clear departmental vision, making brave choices about what to include (and exclude), and balancing school context with disciplinary integrity. Along the way they unpack ideas like core and hinterland knowledge, Richard Kennett's museum curation analogy, and why non-specialist teaching makes a rich hinterland even more vital. Catherine shares insights from international curriculum work, while Hugh reflects on training hundreds of subject leaders and the realities of mandated trust curricula. The conversation also tackles assessment, examining extended writing in history as well as the kinds of tasks to avoid - before showcasing how scholarship-anchored enquiries can make the discipline sing. The book's design contains QR-linked routes into Historical Association resources, offering a practical portal for teachers who want exemplification, not just principles. It's an energising, example-rich tour of how to build ambitious, coherent history curricula that pupils remember and love.Catherine Priggs is an education consultant who specialises in history education and whole-school leadership. She has worked as a senior leader in two schools and as director of a teaching school.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, Carly DuCharme shares how beginning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 35, during recovery from surgery, shifted from rehabilitation to a commitment to personal growth and competition. Carly, a purple belt and Masters competitor, explains why she chose to compete only three months after starting and why waiting to “feel ready” often slows progress. She discusses the emotional and practical lessons learned through early competition, how stepping into a match exposes technical gaps more efficiently than regular training, and the difference between fearing a loss and fearing being seen attempting something challenging. Carly also reflects on mindset, confidence, and maintaining perspective during wins and losses. The conversation expands into competition across belt levels, the value of Masters divisions, and how she encourages other women to compete even when brackets are small. Listeners will hear honest insights on fear, preparation, accountability, and how competition can strengthen training partners and team culture. Follow Carly on Instagram: @bad_btch_jitsu  

  Hooked rugs are humble things made of recycled cloth and worn out textiles, originally born of need and lack: and yet they have come to mean much more to the communities that produced and enjoyed them. In America they have become an emblem of homespun pioneer thrift and self-reliance and an important element in the definition of a certain kind of national values.   Handmade hooked rugs are the stuff of everyday life, but in Canada they became a vital form of income for impoverished seafaring families in Labrador and Newfoundland. And in northern England and southern Scotland they brightened up the hearth of many rural and urban working-class homes.   But in the far north of the British Isles a very different tradition developed where sewn pile rugs came to play a role as vital protection for sleeping bodies against night time trolls and witches.   Join us as we explore the many forms of hooky, proggy, proddy, clooty, clippy, stobby, and bodgy rugs that have spread around the world.   For more information about this episode and pictures of the people and places mentioned in this episode please go to https://hapticandhue.com/tales-of-textiles-series-7/.   And if you would like to find out about Friends of Haptic & Hue with an extra podcast every month hosted by Jo Andrews and Bill Taylor – here's the link: https://hapticandhue.com/join/

In this conversation, Annabelle reflects on her first classes, the challenges of balancing school with training, and the moments that shaped her competitive mindset. She discusses how training at Crazy 88 influenced her development, what she learned from competing across divisions, and how she approaches the mental side of preparing for major tournaments. Annabelle also shares her thoughts on adapting to purple-belt competition, refining her technique, and the lessons she's learned from testing herself against larger opponents.
