"This app told me I ovulated." Sister, I hear it constantly — and every time, I have to fight the urge to roll my eyes. Because here's the truth: an algorithm cannot tell you what your body is actually doing. Today I'm breaking down why fertility apps so often get it wrong, and what real, God-given science actually reveals about your ovulation.We start by grounding ourselves in Matthew 6:25–34. We let go of the worries, deep concerns and anxiousness that is connected to our bodies and our desire for a baby. And then dive into the incredible fertility science God revealed to researchers back in the 1950s.Episode Highlights:Why fertility tracking apps and algorithms so often get ovulation predictions wrongGrounding our fertility anxiety in Matthew 6:25–34 before we get into the scienceThe 1950s discovery that gave us modern fertility awareness methods — and its surprising origin storyWhat FEMM (Fertility Education and Medical Management) actually teaches, and why real charting education mattersThe biomarkers that truly reveal ovulation: cervical mucus, basal body temperature, mittelschmerz, cycle phase length, and LHWhy the only 100% way to confirm ovulation is an ultrasound — and how charting gets you remarkably closeAn update on the Fertility Framework program waitlist, reopening this fallResources & Links:✨ Tell me what my hormones are saying: bekahyawn.com/quiz   ✨ Join Fertility Framework: Fertility Framework is currently closed for some exciting revisions — I'm making updates I can't wait for you to see!

How does a woman get so far away from herself without even realizing it?It rarely happens all at once.It can happen slowly, through years of taking care of other people, saying yes when you want to say no, ignoring what your body is telling you, keeping the peace, meeting expectations, and becoming really good at being who everyone else needs you to be.Until one day, you realize you're not entirely sure what you need anymore.In this episode, Janell sits down with Angela Obert, business development expert and owner of Network Connection Minnesota, for a deeply personal conversation about people-pleasing, codependency, self-abandonment, identity, and what it takes to rebuild a relationship with yourself.Angela shares openly about her own experience with codependency and how she began recognizing the ways she had changed or abandoned parts of herself to please, help, or fix others. She and Janell also explore why “doing the work” doesn't mean old patterns disappear, and how transformation can look less like eliminating those parts of yourself and more like changing your relationship with them.They talk about:How people-pleasing can become self-abandonmentWhy old patterns can still show up after years of personal growthWhat rebuilding self-trust actually looks likeWhy keeping small promises to yourself mattersThe difference between consistency and perfectionHow the nervous system can keep familiar identities and patterns in placeLearning to listen to the signals your body is sendingWhy uncomfortable emotions, including anger, need space to be feltHow to begin separating what you genuinely want from what you've been conditioned to wantWhy being physically “in the room” can create something another podcast, book, or program simply can'tUltimately, so much of this conversation comes back to one thing:The relationship you have with yourself.And perhaps coming back to yourself isn't about reinventing who you are.It's about remembering.

So why isn't the money in your bank account?In this episode of Scaling with People, Gwendaver Crury sits down with attorney and founder Grace Sabine to unpack one of the most overlooked threats to business growth: unpaid invoices.Grace shares why getting paid isn't an administrative problem—it's a scaling, cash-flow, and founder-time problem.Together, they explore:Why a project isn't really finished until you're paidThe hidden financial, emotional, and opportunity costs of chasing invoicesThe three biggest reasons invoices go unpaid: ghosting, administrative delays, and disputesHow one unpaid $120,000 invoice can become a serious runway problem for a growing companyWhy contracts and clear payment terms matter before the work even beginsWhen to use deposits and milestone payments instead of waiting until the end of a projectHow founders can negotiate payment terms with the people who actually control the moneyWhy the creator economy is especially vulnerable to payment delaysHow AI can help with operational and legal workflows—and where human judgment still mattersThe one operational system every founder should put in place tomorrowThe big takeaway: Getting the deal is exciting. Getting paid is what keeps the business alive.If you're a founder, freelancer, agency, or business owner who has ever thought, “I'll just chase this invoice myself,” this conversation will make you rethink the true cost of that decision.About Grace SabineGrace Sabine is a Columbia Law graduate and founder focused on helping businesses protect the revenue they've already earned.

Your brand exists whether you intentionally build it or not.The question is: Are you controlling the narrative?In this episode of the Culture Matters Podcast, Jay Doran sits down with Rey Perez, CEO of AMPERE Brand, global branding expert, business growth strategist, and entrepreneur, for a conversation about personal branding, perception, entrepreneurship, integrity, impact, and what it takes to intentionally position yourself in the marketplace.Rey's entrepreneurial story began long before branding. At 14 years old, he started a lawn service. By college, he had entered Miami's nightlife industry, eventually discovering that many of the skills he was developing through promoting parties would become the foundation of his career decades later.Before modern CRMs, landing pages, social media marketing, and today's content ecosystem, Rey was collecting customer information, capturing photos and videos, building email lists, creating promotional content, and figuring out how to bring people back to the next event.The venue eventually changed. The principles did not.Today, instead of bringing people into nightclubs, Rey brings entrepreneurs into rooms designed to help them understand, build, and elevate their brands.At the center of Rey's philosophy is the belief that everything has a brand. Companies have brands. Products have brands. Events have brands. And whether they recognize it or not, entrepreneurs have personal brands.Branding, however, is about far more than a logo, website, photo shoot, or social media presence. It is the perception of value that exists in another person's mind. The more intentional you become about positioning, messaging, consistency, and the experiences you create, the greater your ability to influence that perception.Rey also warns entrepreneurs about what he calls the "Blockbuster effect." Success today does not guarantee relevance tomorrow. Organizations and individuals that refuse to evolve, question old processes, adopt new technology, and invest in their positioning risk eventually being overtaken by those who do.That urgency is part of what led Rey to create Brand in 2 Days, an immersive experience designed to compress what once took weeks into an intensive branding process. But the transformation is not simply visual. Rey has watched entrepreneurs become emotional when they finally see their experience, expertise, value, and identity articulated in a way they had never been able to express themselves.For some, building the brand becomes an exercise in recognizing their own worth.In this episode, Jay and Rey discuss:Rey's entrepreneurial beginnings at 14 years oldThe lessons he carried from Miami nightlife into business and brandingWhy human behavior remains at the center of great marketingWhat a brand actually isThe difference between a company brand and a personal brandWhy entrepreneurs need to control the narrative surrounding their reputationHow perception creates value in the marketplaceWhy products, services, events, and people can each become distinct brandsThe danger of the "Blockbuster effect"Why businesses must continuously question the way things have always been doneHow Rey developed the Brand in 2 Days experienceWhy building things in the correct order mattersThe fear entrepreneurs experience when stepping into greater visibilityHow personal branding can change someone's perception of themselvesWhy community and collaboration accelerate transformationRey's transition from pursuing money to pursuing impactWhy he believes influence should be used with loveLeading with contribution before asking for anything in returnWhy integrity is the foundation beneath every sustainable brandUltimately, the conversation moves beyond branding entirely.After decades of entrepreneurship, working with business owners, traveling the world, building companies, and helping people position themselves, Rey identifies integrity as one of the most important principles he has learned.Honor your word. And when you fall out of integrity, acknowledge it, recommit, and get back into integrity.Because visibility may amplify your brand, but it also amplifies who you are.A powerful brand can create attention. A great brand can create opportunity. But without integrity underneath it, neither can last.

Love the podcast? Send us a text!When Vic Clevenger's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, he and his brother had a thought that many men probably share:At least we're not women. We don't have to worry about breast cancer.Years later, Vic learned firsthand just how wrong that assumption can be.It started with what looked like a stain on his shirt. When Vic realized fluid was coming from his nipple, he initially assumed it was probably a cyst, pimple, or something minor.His fiancée encouraged him to get it checked.Even then, Vic says his concerns were initially dismissed because male breast cancer was considered "too rare." But Vic knew something wasn't right and sought another opinion.A mammogram and biopsy ultimately confirmed breast cancer.In this episode of Breast Cancer Conversations, Vic joins Laura Carfang for an honest—and often surprisingly funny—conversation about male breast cancer, self-advocacy, genetic testing, masculinity, body image, and learning to live fully after a cancer diagnosis.Vic shares his experience undergoing a double mastectomy and radiation, taking ongoing hormone therapy, and later discovering that he carries a BRCA2 mutation. His family's genetic testing also challenged another common assumption: hereditary breast cancer risk doesn't only come from your mother's side of the family.In this episode, we discuss:Yes, men can get breast cancerThe unexpected symptom that led Vic to seek medical careWhy nipple discharge or other breast changes shouldn't be ignoredWhat happened when Vic's concerns were initially dismissedHaving a mammogram and biopsy as a manVic's experience with a double mastectomy and surgical drainsBody image and the emotional impact of mastectomy for menUsing humor to navigate cancer and recoveryBRCA2 mutations and understanding family historyWhy family history on both sides mattersThe importance of genetic counseling and testing when appropriateFear of recurrence and life after treatmentWhy some men may delay going to the doctorHow breast cancer organizations can make male patients feel more includedWhy self-advocacy and second opinions can matterVic's perspective on getting a "second lease on life"Vic also shares an important challenge for healthcare providers and cancer organizations: don't make men hunt for information about male breast cancer.While male breast cancer is uncommon, the people diagnosed with it deserve information, resources, and support that recognize their experiences.And Vic's message to other men is one worth sharing:If you notice something different in your body, don't ignore it. Get it checked. And if you don't feel like your concerns are being taken seriously, keep asking questions.Because breast cancer isn't exclusively a women's disease.Support the showListener FeedbackIf this episode resonated with you, we invite you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.You can also click the link in the show notes that says "Love this episode?

Third-grade retention laws are gaining momentum—but does repeating a grade actually help struggling readers? Stacy, Donell, and Lindsay explore what the research suggests and why earlier, evidence-based intervention may be the better answer.Show NotesMore states are turning to third-grade retention policies as a way to improve reading outcomes. But as Stacy, Donell, and Lindsay discuss, the research raises an important question: Is retention itself making the difference, or are the interventions that come with it responsible for improved outcomes?In this episode, the hosts examine the complicated realities behind third-grade retention, including the social-emotional impact on students, the challenges faced by children with reading difficulties, and the role attendance can play in early literacy development.The conversation ultimately moves upstream. Rather than waiting until third grade to respond, what would happen if schools placed greater emphasis on early identification, strong Tier 1 instruction, evidence-based intervention, and educator knowledge beginning in preschool and the primary grades?In this episode:Why third grade became a major literacy benchmarkWhat research suggests about retention versus interventionThe potential social-emotional impact of repeating a gradeWhy attendance in kindergarten and the early grades mattersThe importance of identifying reading difficulties earlyHow retention policies can change adult behavior and increase supportWhy effective MTSS and strong Tier 1 instruction matterWhere schools and districts might reconsider how literacy resources are allocated

Dear Friends, I am excited to announce a new monthly membership for listeners of Gateways, called Gateways to Inner Knowing, where I'll be sharing reflections, takeaways, meditations, live calls, occasional guest drop-ins, and more. You can learn more here: In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Dr. Sue Morter, internationally recognized teacher, speaker, bioenergetics expert, and author of The Energy Codes, to explore the relationship between consciousness, energy, the body, and our deeper spiritual nature.Sue's work brings together ancient wisdom, energy medicine, meditation, and our understanding of the human body to ask a profound question: How do we move from intellectually understanding who we are to actually embodying it?“The body isn't something we need to transcend in order to awaken. It may be the very instrument through which awakening becomes embodied.” - Dr. Sue Morter Big thank you to my soul brother Bruce Cryer for the introduction! We explore why so many of us live primarily from the mind, what it means to bring our awareness back into the body, and how our energetic patterns can influence the way we experience ourselves and the world around us. In this conversation, we explore:What The Energy Codes are and how Sue developed the frameworkWhy consciousness and embodiment must work togetherWhat it means to live from the Soulful Self rather than the Protective PersonalityHow energy moves through the body and why the central channel mattersThe relationship between breath, the nervous system, and consciousnessWhy intellectual insight alone doesn't always change our patternsHow our bodies can carry unresolved energetic and emotional experiencesWhat it means to embody rather than simply understand our spiritual natureWe would LOVE to hear from you! What did you learn? Tune into Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, scientists, mystics, entrepreneurs, and consciousness pioneers exploring the future of human potential.If this episode resonates with you, you may also enjoy Yasmeen's work through the Inner Knowing School, where she teaches intuition, energetic mastery, multidimensional awareness, and nervous system regulation through private immersions and executive cohorts. You can also explore Yasmeen's latest book, A Glitch in the Matrix: 10 Energy Codes to Become the Main Character of Your Life, available on Audible, Kindle, and in print. The book explores intuition, consciousness, timelines, emotional regulation, and how to manage your energy instead of your time.

ADHD in women is often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or missed entirely.In this episode, Dr. Jennifer Dall, a Grief-Informed Neurodivergence Specialist, educator, and founder of ADHD Holistically, joins us to explore what it really means to live with ADHD as a woman, especially when it shows up in ways that don't match the stereotypes we've been taught to expect.Dr. Dall shares how her work centers on what she calls “ADHD +1”, the reality that ADHD often exists alongside grief, stress, trauma, or other life experiences that shape how we move through the world.Together, we talk about why so many women were overlooked in research, how internalized narratives like “lazy” or “too emotional” have shaped our self-perception, and what becomes possible when we begin to understand ourselves differently.This conversation is for any woman who has ever wondered why things feel harder than they should or who is ready to replace self-criticism with clarity and compassion.In this episode, you'll discover:Why ADHD in women has historically gone unrecognizedHow ADHD shows up differently in women (and why it's often internal)The connection between ADHD, emotional sensitivity, and rejectionWhat “ADHD plus one” means and why it mattersThe role of grief and life transitions in shaping our capacityWhy diagnosis can be helpful—but not always necessaryHow to begin understanding your patterns with more self-trustWhether or not you ever get a formal diagnosis, this episode offers something just as valuable: ✨ Ease in knowing that the exhaustion of masking isn't a personal failing, it's the cost of surviving in systems that were never built to notice you. Jen's story is permission to stop performing and start understanding yourself instead.✨ Joy in watching a woman reclaim the very trait she was once criticized for. Jen calls her flexible thinking a superpower now, the same thing that used to be called a distraction. Chances are, you're carrying something similar: a trait that got labeled a flaw long before anyone considered it might be a strength.✨ Impact in a truth that ripples well past one conversation: success doesn't require reaching everyone, just one person. Every woman in this community who names her own ADHD out loud makes it a little easier for the next woman to recognize hers.✨ Self-trust in the years it can take to gather your own evidence before you trust it enough to act on it. Jen collected hers slowly: research, patterns, a student who reminded her of herself. Many of us are doing the same thing right now, in our own quieter ways. That slow, careful kind of self-trust counts just as much as the instant kind, and it deserves the same credit. ----------------✨ Join other smart, high-achieving women to rewrite the rules for how to love, lead, and succeed so you can live with more joy, ease, and abundance, even when life is tough.

In this episode, Barry Schwartz explores why making a good decision isn't always as simple as weighing the pros and cons. We discuss why trying to find the "best" option can sometimes leave us worse off, when we should trust our judgment instead of the numbers, and why having so many choices today can make even simple decisions feel overwhelming. Along the way, Barry offers a different way to think about making choices—and what it really means to choose wisely.Keywordsdecision making, rational choice theory, judgment, behavioral economics, trade-offs, regret, modern decision challengesIn this episode, you'll learn:Why rational choice theory doesn't capture how many real-world decisions should be madeWhy some choices simply can't be reduced to numbersHow quantification can create a false sense of confidenceWhy we sometimes prioritize what's measurable instead of what actually mattersThe difference between maximizing and choosing something that's "good enough"Why having more choices can make decision-making harderHow judgment differs from simply following your intuitionWhy values and flexibility both matter when making difficult choicesHow regret can improve future decisionsWhy the modern world may be making thoughtful decision-making more difficultChapters00:00 Introduction to Barry Schwartz and his new book09:30 The limitations of quantifying decisions and outcomes11:00 The importance of context, framing, and norms in decision making13:24 The seductive nature of quantification and its pitfalls14:56 The futility of searching for the 'best' in decisions16:54 Mechanical errors in probabilistic thinking and uncertainty18:09 Challenges of quantifying complex decisions like college choices19:44 The risks of over-reliance on quantification and metrics22:09 The influence of quantifiable metrics on decision priorities23:36 The problem with maximizing and searching for the 'best'25:21 The paradox of choice and satisfaction27:12 The limits of rational search in life decisions28:46 When to apply rational choice theory and when to rely on judgment30:12 The role of reflection and goals in decision making31:58 Balancing logic, intuition, and emotion in decisions40:36 The importance of values, principles, and flexibility41:30 Life as a series of judgment calls, not formulas42:29 The role of regret in learning and decision improvement44:29 The right amount of regret and its importance45:54 Final thoughts on decision making in a complex worldGuest LinksWebsite - https://www.swarthmore.edu/profile/barry-schwartz

DescriptionIn this episode of Beautiful Work Beautiful Life, cohosts Laurel Holland and Laurel Boivin begin exploring what oppression is and why recognizing it is an essential part of the journey toward self-liberation.Starting with traditional dictionary definitions and expanding into a broader understanding of oppression, they examine how oppression can exist not only in external systems and structures, but also within our own beliefs, behaviors, and patterns. Through conversations about people-pleasing, inherited conditioning, abuse of power, patriarchy, self-discipline, and personal responsibility, they invite listeners to consider where they may be feeling weighed down, limiting themselves, or unintentionally limiting others.At its heart, this conversation isn't simply about freedom from oppression—it's about the freedom to live authentically. By uncovering the beliefs, expectations, and conditioning that shape our lives, we create the possibility of becoming more fully ourselves and making choices that align with who we truly are. This episode lays the foundation for a season devoted to the inner work of self-awareness, authenticity, and self-liberation.In This EpisodeWhat oppression is—and why understanding it mattersThe difference between external oppression and self-oppressionHow people-pleasing can become a form of self-oppressionWhy abuse of power isn't always externalThe role of systems, culture, and conditioning in shaping our beliefsHow authenticity begins with recognizing what is limiting your freedom to be yourselfWhy true freedom comes through self-awareness and self-disciplineRecognizing that we can experience oppression and unintentionally oppress othersDefinitions:To oppress: crush by abuse of power or authority; weigh down or burden.Oppression: the unjust or cruel exercise of power or authority; a system or pattern that limits people's opportunity, dignity, freedom, safety, or ability to be fully themselves.Journaling prompts Where in your life do you feel weighed down or burdened in a way that prevents you from being your authentic self?What beliefs, expectations, or roles have you accepted simply because they were considered "normal"?Where might you be giving away your own power—or misusing it toward yourself or others?Where have you experienced oppression in your own life, and how might those experiences still influence your beliefs or choices today?What is one belief, behavior, or expectation you're ready to question as you continue your journey toward living more authentically?Authors mentioned:  Wallace WattlesHost/Cohost/Guest InfoGuiding others to become effective leaders of their own lives, Laurel Holland has been on a journey of awakening and transformation throughout her life.

Leaving an abusive relationship is only the beginning.For many survivors, the legal system becomes the next obstacle, especially when financial abuse, intimidation, and limited access to legal representation leave them trying to navigate family court alone.I'm talking with Heather Bellino from the Texas Advocacy Project to discuss the often-overlooked civil legal needs of survivors and the systemic gaps that continue to put families at risk. Although Texas Advocacy Project serves survivors in Texas, the themes discussed apply to communities across the United States.We explore how coordinated community responses, trauma-informed legal advocacy, and increased collaboration between professionals can improve both safety and access to justice.We discuss:The difference between criminal and civil legal remedies for survivorsWhy protective orders, custody, and family court often determine a survivor's immediate safetyWhy abuse must be understood as a pattern of coercive control, not isolated incidentsHow stalking and coercive control are frequently minimized when viewed one event at a timeThe importance of trauma-informed judges, evaluators, and court professionalsWhy passing new legislation is only the first step—and why implementation mattersThe role of court watchers in increasing accountability and transparencyHow Texas Advocacy Project helps survivors who must represent themselves in court (pro se)Why knowing your legal rights can be empowering after coercive controlThe importance of coordinated community responses rather than organizations working in silosWhy funding survivor services is essential to long-term systemic changeSurvivors shouldn't have to navigate complex legal systems alone. When professionals collaborate, communities invest in survivor-centered services, and systems understand coercive control as a pattern rather than isolated incidents, families have a far greater chance of finding both safety and justice.Please leave us a review or rating and follow/subscribe to the show.

Capital preservation can be just as important as income when investing in bonds. Our interview with Jerry Wharton, manager of IFSL Church House Investment Grade Fixed Interest, examines how a defensive investment-grade bond strategy seeks to preserve capital while providing dependable income for clients.

I took six weeks off. No podcast episodes. No YouTube videos. No announcements. I just... stopped.And honestly? It was one of the best decisions I've made for my business and my life.In this episode, I'm coming back raw, unscripted, and more myself than I've felt in a long time. I'm sharing why I stepped away, what I realized during that time, and how I'm showing up differently going forward. For the podcast, for my clients, and for myself.We talk about:Why I hit a wall after two years of consistent content and what that visceral "no" feeling was trying to tell meWhat three days without cell service in the mountains reminded me about presence, nervous system, and what actually mattersThe lesson I keep coming back to in 2026 about knowledge versus actually changing from the inside outWhat happened inside my 12-week rewiring program and why 8 out of 8 women said it changed their lifeWhy I'm done with the 60-minute training model and what I'm doing differently this fallWhat The Money Rewire Experience is and why I believe it's the most powerful thing I've ever createdThis episode is also just me being honest with you. About burnout. About losing my essence inside frameworks that weren't mine. About choosing to show up on my own terms, in my own time, in a way that actually feels like me.If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but something still feels off, this one is going to land.Welcome back. I'm glad you're here.

Send us Fan MailFor years, many of us have assumed that toddlers are naturally picky—that children are simply born preferring bland foods, avoiding vegetables, and rejecting anything unfamiliar. But what if that's not actually true?This week I'm joined by historian Helen Zoe Veit, author of Picky: How American Children Became the Fussiest Eaters in History. Together we explore how picky eating became so common, why children in previous generations—and in many cultures around the world—ate the same foods as adults, and what history can teach us about raising confident, adventurous eaters today. We discuss:Why picky eating wasn't always considered "normal"The surprising history behind children's menus and snack cultureWhether kids really have more sensitive taste budsWhy hunger between meals mattersThe role of structure versus pressure at the dinner tableWhy children around the world often eat the same foods as their parentsPractical ways parents can expand their child's palate without power strugglesThis conversation is encouraging, evidence-informed, and full of practical ideas that may help make family meals less stressful—and a lot more enjoyable.About Helen Zoe VeitHelen Zoe Veit is an award-winning historian, writer, and professor of history at Michigan State University. She specializes in the history of food in America and is the director of the What America Ate project.

On July 9, two Republicans and two Democrats sent HHS Secretary RFK Jr. and CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz the same warning: physician-assisted suicide inside America's federally funded hospice programs has no reporting requirements—no tracking for coercion, discrimination, or drug diversion—despite roughly 90% of these patients being hospice-enrolled in Washington State.The letter responds to an open federal docket (91 Fed. Reg. 17338), meaning Americans can take action right now.In this episode, I break down:The bipartisan letter and why it mattersThe 1997 federal law most Americans don't know existsDisability-rights lawsuits in five statesWhat ten years and 103,000 deaths in Canada have taught me about the phrase "strict safeguards"What do you think?

Most fiduciaries are handed enormous responsibility with almost no practical training. In this episode, you'll learn what it really means to be an “intelligent fiduciary” — and how to move beyond box‑checking to truly serving participants while protecting yourself from litigation.In this episode, Eric and Carol Buckmann discuss:Fiduciary training gap under ERISA and why it mattersThe three core traits of an “intelligent fiduciary”Practical RFPs and monitoring service providersProhibited transactions, 408(b)(2), and Cunningham v. CornellService provider myths and emerging risks in welfare benefit plansKey Takeaways:ERISA plan fiduciaries are held to some of the highest legal standards despite having no built-in requirement for training, which creates a potentially dangerous knowledge gap for committee members.An “intelligent fiduciary” is committed to best practices, prioritizes participants' interests above all else, and stays current on legal and investment developments.Regular RFPs and systematic evaluation of service providers are not optional extras; they are core fiduciary functions that often require outside experts to do well.Prohibited transaction rules are highly technical, and even arrangements that feel “fair” can be violations if they involve related parties and don't fit within an exemption.Welfare benefit plans and pharmacy benefit arrangements are becoming hot targets for litigation, making it increasingly important to have clear governance, disclosures, and specialized oversight.“You can't be an intelligent fiduciary if you don't engage outside experts when you need them.” - Carol BuckmannCarol Buckmann is a co-founding partner of Cohen & Buckmann p.c. and Chair of its Fiduciary and Plan Governance practice.

What if the secret to a more fulfilling life isn't finding perfect balance... but letting go of the idea altogether?In this refreshing, honest, and perspective-shifting episode of the High Vibin' It Podcast, Kelsey Aida and Lynnsey Robinson challenge one of the most common pieces of self-help advice: the pursuit of balance.Instead of striving to perfectly divide your time, energy, and attention across every area of life, they introduce a more compassionate and sustainable approach: harmony.Together, they explore why different seasons of life require different priorities, how perfectionism keeps us stuck in burnout, and why trusting your natural rhythms can create more peace than trying to control every moment.From recovering after big creative projects and honoring periods of rest to embracing life's changing seasons, this conversation is an invitation to stop forcing balance and start creating a life that feels deeply aligned with who you are today.✨ What You'll Discover:Why "balance" may be an impossible goalThe difference between balance and harmonyHow to recognize the season of life you're currently inWhy burnout often comes from trying to do everything at onceHow perfectionism keeps you disconnected from yourselfPractical ways to audit where your energy is goingWhy saying no creates space for what truly mattersThe importance of honoring your natural rhythmsHow trust creates more freedom than controlWhy productivity doesn't have to look the same every dayHow to stop comparing your timeline to someone else'sWhy alignment feels better than constant hustleThe mindset shift that makes success feel more sustainable✨ Want More?In the extended Patreon episode, we pull numerology oracle cards for guidance on creating more harmony in your life.

What is the role of philanthropy, business, and government in creating long-term impact? Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet, joins us to explores why “either/or” thinking can limit progress, and why the most effective solutions often come from a both/and approach. We talk about how nonprofits are pioneering solutions to problems before there's a marketplace, how the billionaires bailing on The Giving Pledge are missing the bigger picture, and how the new wave of businesses are deciding that profitability and positive impact can go work together. Kate then tells us about 1% for the Planet, how the membership works, and how the members are giving back and reaping the rewards. Tune in as we discuss how money, power, and responsibility shape the future.Key TopicsThe role of philanthropy in society todayHow philanthropy differs from government actionWhy nonprofits often address problems outside the marketplaceThe “false dichotomy” between investing in businesses and funding nonprofitsThe Giving Pledge and why those bailing on the pledge are missing the bigger pictureWhy nonprofits are often unfairly judged on efficiency and overheadHow business, nonprofits, and government can work together for long-term impactHow 1% for the Planet operates and why its model mattersThe organization's expanded definition of environmental givingThe connection between climate change, systems thinking, and cooperative actionSound Bites“One of the challenges with businesses giving back is that they have to focus on quarterly and yearly financials, not decades or centuries, which are more often the timescale of impact.“Nonprofits are more willing to get in and do a multi-stakeholder ,long-term approach that focuses on global impact and not just any one entity's challenges.”“In an ideal world, we have both businesses and nonprofits working together either directly or indirectly, and all the systems are oriented towards a thriving future.”“I think the problem with where The Giving Pledge bailers is that they made it into a false dichotomy by saying they're going to exclude nonprofits to focus on businesses because they think businesses are the ones that build our future.”“Nonprofits are not a nice to have. They play a really critical role in addressing those things for which there is not a marketplace.”“Nonprofits sometimes appear to be held to a higher standard with weird expectations that they can somehow deliver results without paying their staff or having resources to buy computers or whatever the tools of the job are.”“MacKenzie Scott is a great example. She's done her homework, has made some really sizable unrestricted grants, meaning she's trusting those organizations to allocate the resources where they can to have the greatest impact.”“Our amazing members at 1% for the Planet donate 1% of their annual revenues to environmental partners. So they're taking these market-driven resources and placing it in the nonprofit marketplace.”“We're not creating a false dichotomy between the business succeeding in the marketplace and the business contributing to positive outcomes for the future. It's the business saying they go together.”Chapters03:00 Intro and Kate Williams introduction04:04 What philanthropy is for05:14 Philanthropy vs. government06:36 What “outside the marketplace” means08:30 Why time horizons matter09:39 Nonprofits as innovators in complex systems10:53 Why business and nonprofit can both matter12:18 The Giving Pledge and why some are “bailing”17:19 Nonprofit overhead, efficiency, and unfair standards21:01 Trusting nonprofits with unrestricted giving23:34 The role of corporations and impact-driven businesses25:33 How businesses can use capitalism differently31:20 Self-funding impact through mission-driven business models34:29 Why extractive models are a problem35:29 How 1% for the Planet works37:34 1% of revenue vs. 1% of profit39:29 Defining “planet” in the network40:06 Expanded impact areas at 1% for the Planet44:37 Individual vs. corporate participation45:18 Where the network is thriving right now48:06 Challenges and opportunities for nonprofits52:13 The wicked problem of climate change54:13 Advice for following a similar path55:33 Finding your own path with self-awareness56:41 Ikigai framework for purpose58:24 Snack and book recommendations60:03 Who to interview next61:12 What a better world meansLinksKate Williams on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/katewilliams871% for the Planet - https://www.onepercentfortheplanet.org/1% for the Planet on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/one-percent-for-the-planet/1% for the Planet on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/1percentftp1% for the Planet on Vimeo - https://vimeo.com/onepercent1% for the Planet on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt7Vb_t-ATwvYHTqs4Q2frQ…The Giving Pledge - https://www.givingpledge.org/The Purpose Pledge - https://purposepledge.org/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radio…The Food Institute - https://foodinstitute.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Utah Clean Energy climate scientist and energy analyst Logan Mitchell joins Molly Wood to explain how a deeply conservative state can still become a proving ground for clean energy—by focusing on affordability, reliability, and coalition-building. They dig into the rapid rise of next‑generation geothermal in Utah (including the DOE's FORGE project and private-sector follow‑on development), why geothermal could deliver clean firm power faster than new gas turbines or nuclear, and why this is one of the rare climate technologies with real bipartisan momentum.In this episode, we cover:Why Utah has become a surprising clean-energy leader (and why “business-friendly” permitting can accelerate deployment)How Utah Clean Energy works in practice: intervening in utility regulatory dockets, stress-testing long-term resource plans, and advocating for an affordable, reliable, clean power mixThe grid value proposition: geothermal as clean firm power that complements wind/solar—especially during “quiet, cold” post-storm stretches when both wind and solar can underperformA plain-English breakdown of key grid terms:Baseload: power that runs steadilyDispatchable: power you can ramp up/down when neededWhy geothermal may become more dispatchable (turn pumps off midday, produce more during high-price evening hours)Why Utah is the current hotspot:Public-private knowledge transfer from DOE's FORGE research site to nearby commercial projectsStreamlined, iterative permitting that reduces uncertainty for first-of-a-kind projectsStrong geothermal resources across Utah and the broader WestThe scale and speed: a first ~100 MW phase expected to come online quickly, with expansion potential that rivals the footprint of major fossil plants—plus transmission constraints as the near-term limiterThe politics: geothermal's appeal across the aisle—jobs, energy security, reliability, and domestic know-how—and why keeping it “above the partisan fray” mattersThe workforce bridge: geothermal as a near 1:1 skills match with oil & gas subsurface expertise—extracting heat instead of hydrocarbonsWhy this matters (big picture):Next‑gen geothermal offers a credible path to fast, scalable, cost-competitive clean firm power—potentially filling the reliability gap that makes high-renewables grids harder to manage, while staying politically durable in places where climate language alone doesn't land.Links:Utah Clean Energy: https://utahcleanenergy.org/Everybody in the Pool: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/2EsDhwQC2z Hosted on Acast.

Being seen means being judged. In this episode, Alissa lays out why that's not a reason to stay small, and what it actually takes to let other people have an opinion of you without losing yourself in it.For HSPs, this isn't just a confidence issue. It's energetic. You feel it when someone misreads you, when a comment lands sideways, when the room shifts after you share something you're proud of. The instinct is to pull back, smooth it over, or shrink to keep the peace.

In this episode, you'll learn:Why being judged is actually a sign you're doing something that mattersThe "zoomed out lens": how to observe someone's reaction without taking it on as your ownWhat it really means to allow someone the dignity of their own experience, including their jealousy or discomfort with your successPractical energy-clearing techniques for releasing what doesn't belong to youWhy dimming yourself to protect other people's feelings costs you more than it saves themUncover your sneaky internal belief that's stopping you from being your most confident self TAKE The FREE Shadow Archetype Quiz NOWLearn my 6-step process for managing & neutralizing your triggers as an HSP in our FREE UN-Botherable Workshop!Join the Not Too Sensitive Club

What happens when a foster-to-adopt family channels their journey into creativity, imagination, and storytelling?In this heartwarming episode of From Foster to Forever, Rachel sits down with father-daughter writing team Mark and Genevieve Marino to share the remarkable story of how their family was formed through foster care adoption—and how that experience inspired the creation of the whimsical Mrs. Wobble's Tangerine House book series.Inspired by friends, Mark and his wife always dreamed of adopting through foster care. When they received a life-changing call about a two-and-a-half-year-old boy who needed a family, they welcomed him into their home and began a journey that would transform all of their lives. Years later, that experience became the inspiration for a magical fictional world where foster children discover belonging, adventure, healing, and choice.Together, Mark, Genevieve, and their adopted son Dayveon collaborated on stories that explore themes of family, identity, resilience, imagination, and foster care—all through the lens of fantasy and humor.This conversation explores the realities of foster care adoption, sibling relationships, open adoption connections, trauma-informed parenting, and the powerful role storytelling can play in helping families process difficult experiences. It's an inspiring reminder that creativity can be a bridge to healing, understanding, and connection.Mark and Genevieve Marino, alongside host Rachel Fulginiti, share their unique familial bond that emerged from their creative endeavors.

Their fantasy world allowed them to explore themes of foster care, belonging, grief, identity, and resilience in a way that felt safe and empowering.Creativity Can Strengthen FamiliesThe family's collaborative writing process became more than a creative project—it became a way of connecting, communicating, and building lasting memories together.About Mark & Genevieve MarinoMark Marino is a writer, professor, and digital storytelling innovator who teaches at the University of Southern California.

It turns out inflation doesn't just squeeze your wallet -- it forces a conversation about what you actually value. Joe, OG, Paula Pant, and Doc G dig into where people are drawing the line, why experiences outlast stuff in the happiness research, and what each of them refuses to give up no matter what.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy people cut the easy stuff first -- and why that strategy relieves anxiety without actually solving the budget problemThe research behind experiences vs. stuff: why the memory of a trip gets rosier over time while objects depreciate in more ways than oneDoc G's spending happiness continuum -- from stuff to experiences to becoming a better version of yourself, and why the last one costs the leastWhy OG's DoorDash experiment was a two out of ten in year-to-date success -- and why four people pulling the rudder in the other direction mattersThe "build from zero" budget reframe that feels more empowering than cutting from the top downOne roundtable member's rule that nothing is ever truly off the table when cash gets tight -- including the house and the private schoolWhat each panelist will never go cheap on -- and one answer involving prescription medications that lands differently than you'd expectThe expenses that are dead to each of them -- and where Joe, OG, Paula, and Doc G land on first class flights and DoorDashWhy the client who cut all Christmas spending had the best holiday season of their lifePapa John's quarterly earnings data that tells you exactly how inflation is changing behavior at the menu levelWhy This Matters NowIf you're in your 40s and you've started quietly trimming things -- streaming services, delivery apps, clothing budgets -- but haven't touched the bigger stuff, this episode names what's actually happening. The question isn't whether to cut. It's whether the things you're cutting are the ones that matter least. That's a values conversation, not a math conversation, and this roundtable is one of the better ones the basement has had.From the BasementJoe, OG, Paula Pant, and Doc G dig into a Wall Street Journal piece on how Americans are changing their spending habits -- and the conversation quickly becomes about what money is actually for. OG reports that his attempt to eliminate DoorDash from the family budget has been going poorly. Doc G went to Bali in coach. The year-long trivia competition takes a dramatic turn as OG's precise mathematical reasoning leads everyone to the wrong answer -- and Doc G wins by going lower. Johnny Carson's guest host strategy turns out to be the missing variable nobody accounted for.Resources MentionedWall Street Journal -- "Where Americans Are Drawing the Line on Price Increases" by Rachel Wolff; linked at stackingbenjamins.comAfford Anything podcast -- Paula Pant; Joe joins most Tuesdays for listener Q&AEarn and Invest podcast -- Doc G (Jordan Grumet); recent episode with Carrie Jorn Grimes on The Joy of MoneyStacking Benjamins Vault -- stackingbenjamins.com/vaultStacking Benjamins Community -- stackingbenjamins.com/basementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There is a gap between where your life is and where you thought it would be. That gap has a name. It is grief. A kind of hidden, invisible grief. And most of us are walking around carrying it without ever calling it that, because we have been taught that grief belongs only to those who have lost someone to death. The rest of us are supposed to just get on with it.Dr. Lucy Hone is an adjunct senior fellow at the University of Canterbury, a leading resilience researcher, and one of the world's most trusted voices on loss and grief. Her TED talk on resilience has been viewed more than nine million times. She is also a mother who lost her 12-year-old daughter, Abi, in a car accident in 2014, and who has spent the decade since weaving her scientific training and her lived experience into tools that actually work. Her new book is How Will I Ever Get Through This?In this conversation, we go to the places most conversations about grief are afraid to go.What you will explore:Why grief is not an emotion but a full-body experience that explains the exhaustion, brain fog, and 3 am waking you may have been blaming on other thingsWhat "living losses" are, the griefs that come without a funeral, and why they may be driving far more of our suffering than we recognizeThe difference between acceptance and coming to terms with, and why one word changes everything about how you move through lossWhat the research actually shows about post-traumatic growth, including the statistic that will surprise you about how common it actually isWhy resilience is not about bouncing back, and what Dr. Hone means when she says you do not bounce back from anything that mattersThe one question she asks herself in the hardest moments, and why it is a more useful starting point than any techniqueIf you have ever minimized something you were going through because it did not feel like it counted as real loss, this conversation is for you.You can find Lucy at: Website | Instagram | Episode TranscriptNext week, I am going solo to talk about something that I think a lot of us are quietly carrying, the conversations we know we need to have with the people who matter most to us, and why we keep finding reasons not to have them. The research turns out to be really clear on this: we consistently overestimate how bad it will be and underestimate how much it costs us to stay silent.
