PODCAST DESCRIPTION:What if the life you're living right now is the exact life you once begged for?In this episode, I open up about a recent moment that reminded me how easy it is to normalize success to forget how hard we worked to get here and take our current blessings for granted. From building a business and raising kids to running podcasts and working full-time, it's easy to overlook how uncommon your “normal” actually is.This one's for the high-achievers, the dadpreneurs, the doers who never stop moving... but rarely stop to reflect. Because sometimes, the real growth isn't in pushing harder, it's in being grateful for what you already have.We talk about:Why your day-to-day isn't as "ordinary" as it feelsHow society views dads differently and why that mattersThe danger of normalizing your biggest winsWhy gratitude is a superpower most entrepreneurs ignoreHow to stay grounded when you're always chasing the next level

Today, we're diving into a topic that so many business owners wrestle with...change. Whether it's a full pivot, a subtle tweak, or a natural evolution, knowing when and why to shift direction in your business can make or break your success.In this episode, I explore:The difference between changing, pivoting, and evolving and why it mattersThe biggest mistake I see entrepreneurs make: “niche flicking”Why changing your business model too often (or not often enough) sends mixed signals to your audienceThe importance of making intentional, data-informed decisions not reactive onesHow to know if the problem is your niche, your marketing, or your messagingThe role of alignment in sustaining momentum and attracting the right clientsWhy tracking your data and staying tuned into the market is non-negotiable

In this episode of the Soul Inspiring Business Podcast, host Kara welcomes Carol Shen, founder of Start Culture Shift. Carol shares her expertise on how businesses of any size can create and improve their workplace culture through practical, actionable steps. With a background in industrial organizational psychology, Carol reveals her Culture Roadmap framework and explains why culture isn't just a set of beliefs—it's what people actually do in an organization.Episode Topics:Defining workplace culture and why it mattersThe three-step Culture Roadmap for embedding culture into strategyHow small businesses can implement culture initiatives without massive resourcesCreating feedback loops that build trust and improve performancePractical tools for setting clear cultural expectationsCarol's journey from corporate life to entrepreneurshipInsights:"Culture is not just a set of beliefs. It's what you do." This realization helps demystify culture and make it actionable.Small organizations can see cultural shifts in 3-6 months, while larger organizations may need more time and multi-level buy-in.Feedback is simply data that helps inform whether behaviors need to shift, removing the negative connotation.Quality trumps quantity when it comes to manager-employee check-ins; even 15 minutes can be effective with established trust.Cultural competencies can be developed using simple tools like AI prompts to generate starting points.The minimum cadence for one-on-one meetings should be every other week, with weekly being ideal.Highlights:00:00 Welcome and Intro 02:47 Understanding Work Culture 05:49 Defining Organizational Culture 08:17 Embedding Culture into Strategy 11:21 Performance Clarity and Competencies 12:44 Cultural Accountability and Leadership 14:29 Organizational Culture and Change Management 18:00 Feedback Mechanisms in Communication 21:03 Utilizing AI for Leadership Competencies 24:01 Translating Strategy into Operations 26:42 Building Trust in Remote Work Environments 29:38 Transitioning from Corporate to Entrepreneurship 30:10 Transition to Entrepreneurship 32:58 Entrepreneurship and Client Profiles 35:31 Improving Work Culture in Alternative Markets 38:12 Website Promotion and Cultural Improvement 39:19 Podcast episode ended Resources:FAST goal-setting framework: Frequently discussed, Ambitious, Specific, TransparentSMART goal-setting framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-boundAI tools like ChatGPT/Perplexity for generating competency frameworksSample culture statements and competency frameworks onlineCarol Shen, founder of Start Culture Shift, helps leaders build people-centered, high-performing cultures.

Send us a textWhy are so many girls with ADHD still being overlooked?In this episode of The Fully Mindful, I sit down with licensed psychologist Dr. Hila Pazner to explore the hidden side of ADHD—particularly in girls and young women. Drawing on her years of experience as a school psychologist and her current private practice where she specializes in assessing and working with children and adolescents with learning disabilities (such as Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia), Intellectual Disabilities, giftedness, ADHD, autism, and behavioral and social-emotional difficulties, Dr. Pazner shares how outdated systems, subtle masking behaviors, and gender bias contribute to underdiagnosis and missed opportunities for support.Together, we dive into:How ADHD presents differently in girls vs. boys—and why that mattersThe long-term consequences of undiagnosed ADHD in girlsWhy a diagnosis isn't just a label—it's a launchpad for understanding, support, and growthHow psychoeducational testing can uncover hidden learning differences, executive function challenges, and emotional strugglesThe hopeful evolution of school psychology toward strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming modelsReal talk on masking, stigma, and what parents can do when something “just feels off” with their childWhether you're a parent, educator, or someone with lived experience, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode of Meet the Farmers, host Ben Eagle sits down with Alex and Emily Crawley, co-directors of Grazing Management Limited, to explore the concept of conservation grazing and their journey starting their business. Based in the Forest of Dean, the Crawleys are using native breed cattle, sheep, and goats to deliver environmental benefits on land managed by charities, government agencies, and private owners.Neither Emily nor Alex began their careers in agriculture. Emily comes from a background in the charitable sector (and also as a pilates instructor!), while Alex transitioned from a military and diplomatic career into land management, later earning a Graduate Diploma in Agriculture and becoming a Nuffield Scholar.Together, they've built a contract grazing business that earned them the British Farming Awards' New Entrant accolade within just two years. This conversation dives into three core themes: the power of farming to support environmental goals, the realities of starting a land-based business without owning land, and the bold personal journeys that led them to agriculture.

Robyn brings forward insights from personality psychology and spiritual intelligence, and Alyse maps the energetics of trauma-based mind control and recovery.We also name what Bewitched is—and what it is not.This was never a cult exposé.It was never about revenge.It's about clarity.

Every entrepreneur dreams of the freedom that comes with success, yet Lloyd Reeb discovered a surprising paradox - the very prosperity he worked so hard to achieve was quietly eroding his freedom and purpose. Instead of letting money become his master, he made the counter-cultural choice to design a life where wealth serves his deeper values rather than dictating his choices. His journey reveals that true entrepreneurial freedom might look radically different than what we've been conditioned to pursue.  Lloyd shares the meaningful artifacts in his office that guide his decisions and keep him grounded in his purpose - from a crystal light bulb gift that reminds him of his unique contribution to a 300-year-old French Bible that represents God's unchanging wisdom to a wooden "Amazing Grace" plaque honoring William Wilberforce's 30-year commitment to ending the slave trade.Key Highlights:How carrying "long-term metrics" in his wallet for decades has helped Lloyd maintain focus on what truly mattersThe intentional decision to decouple wealth from lifestyle to break cycles of entitlementWhy complexity, comfort, and complacency are the three deadliest enemies to living a purpose-driven lifeApplying Charlie Munger's "inversion" approach to identify what would cause you to squander your lifeThe transformative practice of keeping a "Book of Days" to document God's work in and through your lifeWhy financial success creates freedom for mission rather than just lifestyle expansionPractical ways to declutter your life, reduce complexity, and create space for what matters mostQuotable Moments:"Build a successful business in the context of focusing on building a successful life.""It's an interesting question to ask: What level of lifestyle is in your family's best interest? That's different from how much can we afford.""What would I do if I wanted to squander the rest of my life? I would get my life complicated, comfortable, and let my heart become uncompassionate.""Money is a great servant, but a terrible master. We wanted to really demote money from mastery to servant."Watch the full episode on YouTube or continue to stream audio on your favorite podcast platform.

In this solo episode of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew digs into the deceptively simple world of political catchphrases—what he calls Parker's Pablum.
