Send us a textToday, we're diving into a topic we've never explored on the podcast before—but absolutely should be: dental sleep medicine. I'm joined by Dr. Shereen Lim, a Perth-based dentist and the author of Breathe, Sleep, Thrive, who specializes in helping children and adults improve their breathing, sleep, and overall wellbeing through airway-focused care.Dr. Lim shares how her own family's struggle with snoring led her into this field, and she breaks down what every parent (and honestly every adult) should know about jaw development, tongue posture, nasal breathing, and how all of it affects our sleep and nervous system.This conversation is packed with simple, practical insights you can start noticing right away—especially if you've ever wondered whether mouth breathing, snoring, or narrow jaws could be impacting your sleep or your child's development.In this episode, we cover:Dr. Lim's personal journey into dental sleep medicineWhat dental sleep medicine actually is and why it mattersThe surprising signs and symptoms of sleep apneaHow mouth breathing affects oxygen, sleep quality, and behaviorEarly childhood indicators that something is off with airway or jaw growthThe role of myofunctional therapy and how it retrains breathing patternsMouth Taping, yay or nay? Find Dr. Lim:https://www.drshereenlim.com.au/Find Jess below!Website: Simply Jess Skincare SIMPLY JESS SKINCARE:Each and every product is naturally derived, highly concentrated and most importantly, super performing!

In this solo episode, Dee Kei thinks out loud about what keeps creatives going when outcomes are uncertain. He unpacks a hard truth many avoid: results are not guaranteed, and tying your identity to them creates desperation and bad decisions. Instead, build a career around love of the craft, alignment, and service to the song. Along the way, DK contrasts winning vs loving the game through Michael Jordan and Shohei Ohtani, explores ikigai and Japanese craftsmanship, pokes holes in hustle without purpose, and explains why the illusion of control shows up in studio superstitions. The practical takeaway is simple and difficult at once: enjoy the work, separate from the outcome, and your best mixes follow.What you will learnHow detaching from results reduces fear and improves decisionsWhen grit helps and when to keep your head down and take the hitWhy “use your ears” remains the only answer that mattersThe role of ritual and superstition in performance psychologyWhy craft comes first and money follows as a consequence SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

In this episode, JoLi breaks down a chance encounter with a "deviant thinker" who thought he was alone, and delivers the truth about why feeling different isn't isolation, it's recognition. From past lives to the illusion of aging, this conversation goes deep into the nature of reality, purpose, and why some of us are wired to question everything.If you've ever felt like you don't belong, like something's fundamentally off about this world, or like you're the only one who sees through the simulation, this episode is your confirmation that you're not broken. You're a flower among spikes.

Worried that giving the same talk more than once would box you in - or worse, bore you to tears?I've been there. And if you're a builder-of-slides-at-heart like me, the idea of sticking to one signature talk can feel a little… constraining.But here's the truth: the talk you give again (and again and again) is the one that becomes unforgettable - for you and your audience.In this episode, I'm joined by Thought Leader Academy graduate Kelly Mallery, who proves exactly that. Kelly works in the continuous improvement and lean space, and she discovered that honing one powerful talk didn't limit her creativity, it amplified it. And it opened doors.We talk about how she's evolved her talk, why a transformer toy has become part of her on-stage brand (yes, really), and how she learned to adapt the same content for both 20-minute and 60-minute speaking slots without losing impact.Whether you're speaking to industry peers, corporate audiences, or groups who've never heard of your topic before, what Kelly shares will help you rethink how reusable and scalable your signature talk can be.Kelly and I talk about:Why one signature talk can actually increase your impact, confidence, and clarityHow Kelly transformed her message by introducing her “Resistobots” (inspired by her love of Transformers)The power of refining the same talk through multiple deliveriesWhat changes—and what stays the same—when adapting a talk from 20 minutes to 60 minutesHow your ideal audience and your buyer can be two different people, and why it mattersThe importance of opening strong and closing with purpose (no rushing just to “get to the content”!)Why props, stories, and frameworks make your message stick—and lead to more speaking invitesLinks:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/453/ Kelly's website: https://www.kellymallery.com/ Watch Kelly deliver a 10-minute version of her signature talk = https://www.youtube.com/live/4ytvyFXfGU0?si=BH8Z-8qt8Npt2XWuDiscover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Connect on LinkedIn:Carol Cox = https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxKelly Mallery (guest) = https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelly-mallery-coaching/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 345: Elevate Your Audience Engagement Skills with These Proven Strategies with Katie AndersonEpisode 355: What a Signature Talk Is and What It Should be Doing for YouEpisode 354: Finding and Developing Your Big I.D.E.A.Episode 440: No Need to Start from Scratch: Repurpose Your Signature Talk for Different Topics and Audiences

What if the biggest threat to your franchise system isn't sales, development, or operations but the financial foundation you're quietly ignoring?In this episode, we sit down with the franchise finance authority, Ron Feldman, a 30-year veteran who has advised, funded, and evaluated many franchise brands through ApplePie Capital, FRANdata, and Franchise America Finance. Ron pulls back the curtain on the one thing that separates healthy, scalable brands from the ones that stall out: franchisee profitability and why ignoring it is the fastest path to failure.From the early days of the Goddard School to building lending platforms that have deployed more than $3 billion to franchisees, Ron shares what lenders really look for, why item 19s often fall short, and how emerging franchisors accidentally sabotage their own growth. He breaks down why unit-level economics matter more than any development goal, how to avoid becoming a “churn and burn” brand, and what it takes to become an exceptional franchise system in the eyes of lenders, franchisees, and buyers.Whether you're a founder trying to grow responsibly, a franchisor preparing for scale, or a leader committed to better financial discipline across your system, this episode is a masterclass in doing franchising the right way with clarity, transparency, and profitability at the core.Connect with Ron:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronaldafeldman/Email - Ron@franchisestrategysolutions.comApplePie Capital Contact - Jamie@applepiecapitall.comEpisode Highlights:Ron's early days as a Goddard School franchiseeThe mentor who shaped his entire franchising philosophyWhy franchisee profitability is the #1 indicator of system healthThe biggest mistakes emerging franchisors makeHow lenders actually evaluate an FDDWhy item 19 rarely shows the full storyWhat makes a brand “exceptional” in the eyes of lendersWhy founders need more capital than they thinkThe dangers of undercapitalization (for franchisors + franchisees)The responsible franchising movement and why it mattersThe power of benchmarking, data, and the right tech stackAccelerating time from signed to open and why most brands struggleWhen franchisors should buy back locations to protect validationConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale Website - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/ Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

In this episode, you'll discover:Why everything you need for healing is already inside youHow heart intelligence differs from mental understanding and why it mattersThe two-minute breathwork practice that brings you back to centerWhy do we spend thousands of dollars on healing modalities when the most powerful tool we have is free and already inside us?I've been that person. The one collecting certifications and techniques like they're going to unlock some secret level of consciousness. I've paid for energy healings, bought the crystals, traveled to the retreats. And I'm not saying those things don't have value. Some of them genuinely changed my life. But somewhere along the way, I realized I was outsourcing my power. I was looking for someone else to tell me I was doing it right instead of trusting what I already knew. That's the trap so many of us fall into. We think spirituality is supposed to be complicated. That if we're not studying ancient texts or learning complex breathwork patterns, we're not serious enough. We're not evolved enough.But what if the whole point is to come back to simple? What if all the tools and teachers and techniques are just different roads leading us back to the same truth? Everything we're looking for is already here. In our breath. In our awareness. In the intelligence of our own bodies.Today our guest is Kara Goodwin, host of the Soul Elevation Podcast and meditation teacher who helps people reconnect with their inner wisdom. She's spent years studying energy healing and consciousness, and her message is refreshingly simple.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/429Join the Mind Love Collective here: https://mindlove.com/joinSign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspiredSupport Mind Love SponsorsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Business Builder Series, Staci explores a common challenge many small business owners face as they grow: the desire to be liked by their team so deeply that it gets in the way of actual leadership. She breaks down what it looks like to step into the role of a true coach, why clarity matters more than being the “nice boss,” and how avoiding discomfort can quietly limit a business's growth.Key topics covered:Why early hires often feel like family and how that impacts leadershipThe difference between kindness and people-pleasingHow lack of clarity, expectations, and boundaries can sabotage a company's ability to scaleWhat it means to lead from the “coach's view” and see the full pictureKey traits of strong leadership: direct communication, accountability, and empathy with boundariesWhy respect comes before likability, and why that order mattersThe risks of avoiding tough conversations or feedback to keep everyone comfortableChallenge:Listeners are encouraged to identify one area where their desire to be liked is causing them to avoid leadership. They should write down the tough conversation, feedback, or boundary they've been avoiding, and note what could become possible if they addressed it.Staci's Links:Instagram.

Joe Laverick was one of the standout British talents through his junior years and earned a place on one of the top development teams in cycling: Hagens Berman Axeon. He spent two seasons there under the guidance of the world-renowned Axel Merckx.Joe had hoped to make the jump to the WorldTour, but things didn't fall into place, and he found himself without a contract at the end of 2022 — facing an uncertain future.Instead of walking away, Joe built something completely different: a one-man privateer project that blends road racing, time trialling and gravel, fuelled by spreadsheets, sponsors, side clients and a serious obsession with marginal gains.Joe lifts the curtain on:What it actually costs to race as a privateer (race budget, travel, equipment)Why you need to be more than “just a bike racer” in 2025Balancing being a rider, writer, team owner, sponsor-hunter, soigneur and logistics managerHow he uses products like the Castelli Gabba R and new gravel kit – and why honest feedback mattersThe learning curve of gravel: tyre pressure, technical skills and why it's an “untapped jigsaw of performance”200+ days on the road in the US gravel scene, host housing, burnout, and finding balanceWhy enjoyment is the ultimate performance metric, and his advice for young riders choosing between the pro pathway and privateer lifeWe wrap up with Joe's dream Girona loop over Sant Hilari and Montseny – a 6.5-hour, 180–200 km that he still calls one of the best rides in the world.– LINKS –Joe Laverickhttps://www.instagram.com/joe.laverick/https://www.strava.com/athletes/7026027Sant Hilari Ridehttps://www.strava.com/activities/10469253051Castelli SOGhttps://www.castelli-cycling.com/spirit-of-gravelMen's Unlimited Gravel Collection:⁠https://www.castelli-cycling.com/IT/en/Men/Collection/Unlimited/c/Man-Col-Unl⁠Women's Unlimited Gravel Collection:⁠https://www.castelli-cycling.com/IT/en/Woman/Collection/Unlimited/c/Wom-Col-Unl⁠Castelli's Xmas Ride, Nov 29:Overview | ⁠https://www.strava.com/clubs/66959⁠Italy | Signup form: https://www.castelli-cycling.com/castelli-unlimited-christmas-ride-2025CHAPTERS00:00 – Intro, Castelli Christmas Gravel Ride & Spirit of Gravel Cabal02:00 – Who is Joe Laverick?

How safe are our period products, really? Charlie speaks with campaigner Helen Lynn from the Women's Environmental Network (WEN) about new findings that detected glyphosate and other concerning chemicals in mainstream tampons and pads — products placed against one of the body's most absorbent tissues. We unpack why period products are barely regulated, how plastics, fragrances and “antimicrobial” additives creep in, and the real-world health implications of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Helen offers a clear hierarchy of safer options (from certified-organic disposables to cups, discs, pants and reusable pads), plus practical advice for school education, tackling stigma, and reducing waste and cost. We also touch on period poverty, environmental justice, and why women and marginalised communities are disproportionately affected — along with smart ways to push for better policy and industry change. Small swaps add up; informed voices change systems.Guest: Helen Lynn — Women's Environmental Network (WEN) TopicsWhat recent testing found in period products and why it mattersThe regulation gap (general product safety vs cosmetics-style prohibitions)Hidden ingredients: plastics, rayon, fragrances, PFAS, “antimicrobial” finishesAbsorption via vaginal tissue and why location of use is criticalA practical hierarchy of safer choices (reusables and certified-organic disposables)Period poverty, cost over a lifetime, and waste reductionEducation, stigma, and how behaviours shift (e.g., at university)Environmental justice: who is most exposed, who is least heardHow to get involved: consumer choices, community action, policy changePractical swaps (start here)Prefer certified-organic tampons/pads for single-useIf reusable:Menstrual cups/discs: medical-grade silicone, no additivesPeriod pants: avoid “anti-odour/antimicrobial” claims; choose plain fabricsReusable pads: undyed natural fibres; wash-care extends lifeReduce fragranced products across the home and bodyNever flush pads/tampons; bin to prevent blockages/fatbergsCalls to actionSupport campaigns for a Menstrual Health, Dignity & Sustainability ActAsk brands for full ingredient transparency and PFAS-free linesShare this episode with a parent, teacher or youth workerResources mentionedWomen's Environmental Network (WEN) — campaigns, school workshops, reportsPesticide Action Network (PAN) — pesticide policy and researchMenzie Project —Get in touch Thanks for listening to the Healthy Home Show Podcast.

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling a lot more optimistic than I was a week ago. In spite of daily news that can feel pretty daunting, I think we just got a lot of new information out of this past week's elections that give us a ton of reasons for optimism. And I want to share those with you.A number of my clients have said to me in the last few days, give us a reason for optimism. How are you feeling about this? And each time I've had this conversation, I've gotten clearer about exactly what the big things were that represented major shifts.  I believe these shifts are reasons to get really excited about the rising power of a vast majority of people in this country who do not agree with what is happening. Who feel very strongly about it, and who are willing to go to the ballot box and make their voices heard. This election was the first opportunity for voters to weigh in on things since the 2024 elections. And boy did they have a lot to say. In this episode, we share:What the pollsters missed that made a huge differenceThe two most significant factors that drove voters' shift to blueThe most important thing that didn't happen, and why it mattersThe two most critical groups of voters who shifted strongly in our favor, and whyWhy the right's attempts at additional gerrymandering may backfire on themThe very surprising data point that tells us how many strong allies we haveWhat Nonprofit leaders can do to help fight voter suppression and ensure all eligible clients can make their voices heard in the next elections Links:Episode 54 – How to Help the People You Serve Make Their Voices Heard at the Ballot BoxEpisode 62 – How Your Nonprofit can Help Your Clients Register to Vote in the 2024 ElectionsEpisode 66 – How to Help Your Clients Make Sure Their Vote CountsHelp spread the word!

Have you ever ordered something online that looked perfect in the description, only to be completely disappointed when it arrived? Or struggled to explain to a sales associate exactly what you're looking for? Today, I'm sharing why building your style vocabulary is one of the most practical things you can do to make shopping easier, faster, and so much more successful.After 25 years of dressing women, I've seen how knowing the right words transforms the entire style experience. When you can name what you're looking for—whether it's a split v-neck blouse or palazzo pants—you stop wasting time, money, and mental energy on clothes that don't work. This episode breaks down why fluency in fashion terminology isn't about memorizing a dictionary—it's about empowering yourself to get the wardrobe you actually want.In this episode, you'll discover:The three compelling reasons why style vocabulary mattersThe essential categories of style terms that cover everythingMy favorite "vocabulary building in the wild" tactics that turn regular shopping trips into effortless learning opportunitiesThe critical difference between just knowing words and knowing how to USE themWhy retailers play fast and loose with definitions—and how to use this knowledge to your advantage I hope this episode helps you see that becoming style-fluent isn't about perfection or knowing every single term out there. It's about giving yourself the tools to communicate what you want, find what you need, and recreate looks that make you feel amazing. Most importantly, you'll spend less time in those frustrating "nothing looks good on me" spirals and more time feeling confident in clothes that truly work for your body and lifestyle. Don't forget to submit your end-of-season style questions here.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/ep-223

That's often the first question when someone in recovery goes quiet, but alcohol hasn't been part of my life for a long time now. What actually happened was burnout — so much stress that my body started showing symptoms that looked like a stroke.In this episode, I talk about:Why my body reacted so strongly even when my mind didn't feel stressedWhat I learned about the disconnect between body and mind (especially for those of us who are neurodivergent)How stepping away helped me re-discover authenticity and what really mattersThe changes I'm making to the podcast, social media, and community moving forwardIf you've ever felt overwhelmed, lost sight of yourself, or wondered how to balance recovery with real-life stress, this episode is for you.I'll also share how you can get more involved — from submitting ideas for future episodes, to possibly being part of a conversation on the show, to connecting through writing and new community spaces I'll be creating.

SummaryInnovation is often treated as a buzzword—but few nonprofit leaders take a hard look at the cultural, structural, and leadership obstacles that keep it from taking root. In this episode, Tosca talks with Carlos Simon, an innovation strategist and longtime leader at World Vision, about what it really takes to build innovation-ready organizations. From internal mindsets to outdated processes, they explore what's getting in the way—and what to do about it.Guest Bio:CEO of World Vision Costa Rica and iSmart360Director of Data Science and former Regional Director of BD & Marketing at World VisionInnovation strategist with 25+ years at World Vision International (WVI)Author of a forthcoming framework on the 7 stages of organizational innovation maturityWe Discuss:Why innovation is not the same as continuous improvement—and why that mattersThe cultural and structural obstacles that slow down innovation in large NGOsHow Carlos developed a framework that identifies 7 distinct organizational "zones" of innovation capacityThe importance of removing outdated processes to truly make space for new ideasWhy leaders must address internal “friction” as much as they focus on promoting new ideasHow senior leadership mindsets—like overconfidence or premature solution bias—can block innovationThe role of flat structures, strategic alignment, and client focus in driving real innovationQuotes“You cannot have a disruptive vision and then treat it as a continuous improvement plan.”“Innovation doesn't fail because of a lack of ideas—it fails because of internal resistance.”ResourcesOrganizational innovation index with exponential factor

Over 50% of the population has Emotional Authority in Human Design—yet most of us were never taught how to use it. Instead, we've been conditioned to make quick decisions, push down our feelings, and power through. That conditioning often leads to buyer's remorse, misaligned programs, and business moves that drain us.In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie sits down with Barb Orozco, a 3/5 Emotional Projector, to talk about what it really looks like to wait for clarity, to sit with a decision, and to know when it's finally time to jump in. Barb shares openly about her conditioning around mistakes (“I am the mistake”), the pain of not being seen, and how Human Design has been the ultimate permission slip.She also takes us behind her decision-making process in joining Content by Design (CBD)—why she initially held back, how she “did her emotional homework” by immersing in Vickie's world, and the exact moment when her clarity came. If you've ever wondered whether you're “doing emotional authority right,” this conversation is a must-listen.Barb's unique work with photos and stories is unprecedented and she shares with us how her work is changing lives and how ready she is to expand her business by deconditioning her wounded voice. This episode is about trusting your design, deconditioning old patterns, and making business decisions that feel good long after you click ‘buy.'In this episode:Why Emotional Authorities aren't meant to make quick decisionsWhat it actually feels like in the body when clarity arrivesHow Barb moved from “I am the mistake” to embracing her third-line roleThe process of saying yes to CBD—and why emotional homework mattersThe power of immersing in someone's world before you investWhy sales pressure tactics don't work for emotional authorities (and what does)The relief of realizing “I'm not wrong—I'm designed this way”Join the event of the season - the one that changes EVERYTHING in your business because you'll finally understand exactly how to speak so that your soul fit clients can hear you - and hire you!This only happens twice a year.It's FREE!It's 3 Days Live in the room with me showing you how to leverage your Human Design to bring your message to live so that you bring paying clients in with ease - and joy!Register here.https://www.vickiedickson.com/live-masterclass-registerGuestBarb Orozco — 3/5 Emotional Projector, story-keeper, and disruptor of the “scrapbook” photo industry.

Hi, it's Natalie here. After a bit of a summer pause (thanks to some tech drama), I'm thrilled to be back with a truly special episode. This one was recorded live at the Green Man Festival, on the Pandemonium Stage in Einstein's Garden, and it's a conversation I've been dreaming about for a long time. If you've been to a festival over the summer and think this type of conversation would fit, do let me know. Feel free to leave a comment wherever you listen or scroll to the bottom to find out more. We tackled one of the most common yet complicated questions many of us face:“So, do you have kids?” It seems innocent, but for so many, it opens the door to grief, awkwardness, and a whole lot of emotional weight. In this episode, we explore why that question can hurt and what we might ask instead.I was joined by four incredible guests who generously shared their personal stories and wisdom on stage:Mel Johnson, solo parent coach and founder of The Stork and IShema Tariq, academic, writer, baby loss advocate and Tommy's trusteeBetty Mukherjee, MRKH campaigner and Race Across the World finalistAnd my husband, Rich Silverman, who opened up publicly for the first time about our journey with male factor infertility and the mental health impact on himWhat we talked aboutWhy the question “Do you have kids?” can be so deeply painful when you're navigating infertility, baby loss, or childlessness not by choiceMel's journey to solo motherhood and the way people still make assumptions about women who choose that pathShema's IVF experience using donor eggs, the heart breaking loss of her baby at 21 weeks, and how her cultural background shaped her experienceBetty's diagnosis of MRKH at 16 and how she opened up about it during her time on national TVRich's journey with male factor infertility and how counselling helped him move forward, plus why more men need space to share tooThe words we use around fertility and family, and how language can uplift or hurtTalking to children about solo parenting and donor conception, and why openness mattersThe trauma of fertility treatment, especially for people of colour, and the inequalities that still existHow to truly show up for loved ones going through these journeys, and why "I'm here if you ever want to talk" is sometimes not enoughBetter ways to connectIf you're ever unsure of what to say instead of “Do you have kids?”, here are a few suggestions we shared:“What's been bringing you joy lately?”“What's been going on in your world?”“What are you passionate about these days?”And most importantly: ask twice. Sometimes people need that second invitation to feel safe opening up.Have a listen to my chat with Shema previously - way back in 2022What do I need to think about when going abroad for donor treatment? • The Fertility Podcast Let's keep the conversation goingConnect with me on Instagram: @fertilitypoddyShema's Insta: @drshematariqMel's Insta: @the_stork_and_iBetty's Insta: @bettymuk_Rich's Insta:
