In today's episode of Backpacker Radio, presented by The Trek, brought to you by LMNT, we are once again firing off our best advice for the upcoming class of Appalachian Trail thru-hikers.  Chaunce and I are joined by Trek Community Ringleader, Jess Stone, to bring you 9 tips for thru-hiking the AT in 2026. Because this is not the first time we've done this subject, Chaunce and I are unveiling brand new advice for this one (with an asterisks)- and today's tips cover advice to ensure you don't lose your precious media (which is more common than you might think), trail name advice, the importance of training, how to maximize the adventure, how to be intentional about getting what you want out of this experience, and much more. We wrap the show with the top tents used on the Appalachian Trail in 2025, what two week Trek Chaunce should take on at the end of March, the triple crown of things that get our goat (v2), and why food delivery services might be pure evil.  LMNT: Get a free sample pack with any order at drinklmnt.com/trek.

Resilience is not grinding harder. Resilience is staying. And most entrepreneurs don't fail because they're incapable. They fail because they leave too early. Emotionally. Mentally. Sometimes physically. So today we're talking about the two traits nobody brags about on Instagram: Resilience and patience. If you're in a slower season right now, or you feel like things are not moving as fast as you want… this episode is for you.   Time Stamps:   (0:15) A Talk You Need At Any Stage of Business (2:17) What Resiliency Really Is (4:08) Patience Is Trust Compounding Over Time (6:00) Fear Is A Compass (8:20) Clarifying Massive Action (9:52) Protect Your Mental Inbox (11:13) Your Top 3 Priorities ----------

In this episode, we're unpacking three deceptively simple but wildly revealing questions:• What am I mentally exhausted from carrying?• What feels unfair right now?• What emotion have I been avoiding?We're talking about decision fatigue, emotional overload, suppressed feelings that refuse to stay suppressed, and why your brain sometimes feels like it's running 37 tabs at once.If life has felt heavy, unfair, or just… too much, this episode is your permission slip to pause, reflect, and maybe stop carrying things that were never meant to live rent-free in your head.Because exhaustion isn't always about sleep — sometimes it's about what you refuse to put down.

Ever feel like you're winning on the scoreboard… but losing in the locker room? You're productive. Disciplined. Respected. You execute at a high level professionally. But at home? You're distracted. Short-tempered. Mentally checked out. Present… but not really there. Here's the hard truth: Performance without alignment creates internal friction. And friction, over time, costs you the very things you say matter most. In this episode of the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show, we break down what's really happening when high-performing men dominate in one arena of life but drift in another. Because this isn't a time-management issue. It's an identity issue. And until you close the gap between who you are at work and who you are at home… you'll keep feeling that low-grade tension you can't quite explain. If you're serious about building a thriving family without sacrificing excellence — this one's for you. In this episode, you'll hear:   Why compartmentalizing your life is silently draining your energy and impact The real reason high achievers struggle to "turn it off" at home How identity leakage creates disconnection in marriage and fatherhood A practical framework to transition from performance mode to presence mode The leadership standard your family actually needs from you KEY QUOTES "Pressure becomes overwhelming when the moment controls you instead of you controlling the moment." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Just because someone claims they're an expert doesn't mean they are. There's a difference between science and bro science." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Do you want it to look good, or do you want it to work?" – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Winning isn't about sprinting. It's about showing up tomorrow with enough energy to do it again." – J.R. CONNECT WITH DR.

Dive into the challenges of marketing with Loralyn Mears from STEERus! Uncover the art of balance as we explore her journey from burnout to brilliance, helping businesses shine online, snag grants, and gear up mid-level managers for the top. Tune in for her transformative tales and practical advice that could steer your business to success!Here are a few topics we'll discuss on this episode of Hard to Market Podcast.Resources:SteerUsPodcast ChefConnect with Loralyn Mears:LinkedInConnect with our host, Brian Mattocks:LinkedInEmailQuotables:03:50 - Brian: That's normally the way it works. Right? It's never a direct line to success. It's always much more of a search algorithm, a much more of a spiral pattern.Loralyn: Yes. Downward spiral being a lot of it, but yes. And then now I'm spiraling up. I've got it. 'cause it's really the messaging is now really more clear. It's helping people get seen and get paid. And what does that mean? Well, if you're a mid-level manager that everybody's overlooking or you're not getting along with your staff, well, you need to get seen, right? And do all of these things differently so that you get promoted or keep your job. 17:14 - It's so much easier to fix other people's problems rather than your own always plus, right? The cobbler's children has no shoes, right? Because we're always fixing everybody else's thing. So like, my website sucks, but everybody else's that I do looks really good. And that's a whole other thing. 15:11 -  The cost of change is often not measured in dollars. It's often measured in organizational fatigue. It's measured in all sorts of the emotional cognitive expense work that isn't easy. It's the same as going to the gym in a lot of these kind of environments where it's like you have to do the, you know, you have to lift the weights, nobody can do it for you. And so you have folks that come in in the small business space, and very often they wanna buy their way out of a problem. And it's like, no, you exercised your way into this problem, you're gonna need to exercise your way out of it. And that creates a very, very difficult dynamic.17:29 - I think it's the state of overwhelm. I think you talked about change, that there is a cost. Mentally, people aren't ready. They know that they need to make change, but it's too much because they've got to change everything on every axis. Right? It's like that movie, first it was only a little bit, and then everything all at once. And it really does become overwhelming, and it's all-consuming, and people just don't have, not even the, the financial capital, which of course is a constraint. You look at the number of small business loans, and two-thirds of small businesses are subsisting on loans. But you look at just the mental energy, it's too much.23:29 - The third thing I would say on go to market is don't get so hung up on the perfection. It's gotta be 99.99% perfect. I really like this. No, I like this image a little better. Let's craft this. Hmm, that post isn't quite right. Just do it. I really believe Wayne Gretzky greatest hockey player of all time, although Alex mentioned, is like taken over. But that's another story, and good for Ovechkin, but Wayne Gretzky said famously, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. And so that's what I say, don't wait till you're 99.99, 80% is good enough. Get it going. See if it works, test it, try it, refine it.

Questioning Everything Was Just the StartThis wasn't a planned episode. This was me hitting record because I couldn't keep carrying everything in my head.Lately, I've been tired. Not just physically. Mentally. Spiritually. Creatively. And it had me asking some uncomfortable questions. About the podcast. About my direction. About whether I'm burned out or just done.Somewhere in all of that, one question kept coming back up:What's my why? And maybe more importantly… is it even mine?In this episode, I talk through burnout, pressure, comparison, and the boxes we put ourselves in trying to be liked, understood, or validated. I don't have a neat answer. I'm not teaching a framework. I'm just being honest about what it feels like to realize the way you've been moving no longer fits.If you've ever felt disconnected from something you once loved, or stuck trying to live up to expectations that aren't really yours, this one's for you.No perfection. No polish. Just a real moment in the middle of a shift.It's About DAMN Time SegmentIt's about damn time I stop moving for everyone else and start defining my why for myself.D.A.M.N. ChallengeTake some time this week to discover or rediscover your why. Not the one that sounds good. Not the one that makes other people comfortable. The one that actually belongs to you.Write it down. Sit with it. Let it change if it needs to.

Aging doesn't have to mean decline—it can mean deeper clarity, stronger perspective, and more freedom to experiment. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan explores what modern aging really asks of us in a fast-changing world. Sayan is joined by Joe Zahaitis, a senior revenue and payments operations advisor, to unpack why “age is a number” is more than a slogan. They discuss curiosity vs. comfort, why people get stuck in familiar patterns, and how lifelong learning—plus daily balance between mind and body—helps you stay engaged, adaptable, and grounded at any stage. About the Guest: Joe Zahaitis is a Senior Revenue and Payments Operation Advisor with over three decades of experience in complex business systems. He's a lifelong learner exploring emerging areas like agentic AI and modern payments trends. Key Takeaways: Treat aging as an active process: stay curious, not comfortable. Notice “set in my ways” thinking and practice learning one new tool or model. Reframe fear of failure: experiment more, especially when it feels unfamiliar. Keep the mind sharp with learning—but protect balance with daily physical activity. Step away from screens regularly to reset clarity and energy.

In this episode of Life Rewired, Kristina explores what mental strength really looks like behind the scenes. Inspired by 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do by Amy Morin, this conversation reframes mental toughness as less about pushing harder and more about letting go of habits that quietly hold us back. Through personal reflection, Kristina shares how building a business, navigating health challenges, and growing as a human has required repeated unlearning. Throughout the episode, Kristina walks through the behaviors mentally strong people avoid, such as living in self-pity, giving away their power, avoiding change, or getting stuck in comparison and past mistakes. She breaks down how these patterns show up in real life, especially for high-achieving men and women, and how shifting focus back to what is controllable creates momentum, clarity, and self-respect. The emphasis is not on getting it right all the time, but on building awareness and choosing forward action even when things feel uncomfortable or uncertain.This episode serves as both a mirror and a reminder that mental strength is a daily practice shaped by small, repeatable decisions. Kristina reminds listeners that progress compounds over time, and that is how your life truly gets rewired!WATCH ON YOUTUBE:⁠https://www.youtube.com/@kristinaturnure/podcasts⁠BALANCED BLUEPRINT MEMBERSHIP:https://builtgroupcoaching.my.canva.site/balancedblueprintmembershipBUILT AND BALANCED VIP COACHING:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScV_IGO2VhRV415iIsiHz6TGr76wuH-loG2eGt068pZG474qw/viewform BUILT & BALANCED NEWSLETTER:⁠⁠⁠https://builtandbalanced.kit.com/dd0f3197cc⁠⁠⁠LIFE REWIRED IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/LIFEREWIREDPODCAST/?utm_medium=copy_link⁠⁠KRIS IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kristinaturnure/?hl=en⁠⁠NASH BARS:https://nashnutrition.co/PTULA: DISCOUNT CODE KRISTINAT https://www.ptula.com/TRANSPARENT LABS: CODE KRISTINA https://athlete.transparentlabs.com/kristinaturnure

Mentally preparing for retirement often generates more questions than answers. From wondering if you've saved enough to figuring out when you can finally stop working, many pre-retirees feel uncertain about what comes next. And then you add concerns around taxes, healthcare, Social Security, and market volatility, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed without a clear plan in place. In this episode, Keith Ellis Jr. is joined by SHP Financial Advisor Mike Guthrie to tackle the most common questions they've heard from clients over the years. With decades of combined experience, Keith and Mike walk through real-world scenarios and explain why there's rarely a one-size-fits-all answer—but there's always a better, more informed way to make decisions. They discuss how to determine whether you truly have enough to retire, how income planning provides clarity and confidence, and why understanding where your money comes from—and where it goes—is critical in retirement. You'll also hear how concepts like the 4% rule and income buckets help retirees move from uncertainty to control. Ultimately, Keith and Mike emphasize the importance of proactive planning—especially around taxes and withdrawal strategies—so retirees can protect their lifestyle, reduce unnecessary risk, and enjoy the years they've worked so hard for. In this podcast interview, you'll learn: How to determine whether you truly have enough money to retire. Why income planning is the foundation of a confident retirement. When it may—or may not—make sense to retire earlier than expected. How to think about cash reserves, income buckets, and long-term growth. What to consider when deciding when to claim Social Security. Why proactive tax planning can significantly impact retirement success. Want the Full Show Notes?

Life rarely unfolds without surprise, hardship, or moments that test our emotional and spiritual limits.

In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” - John 16:33, NIV Most of us don’t like to be caught off guard, hit with something we weren’t expecting. Those situations can feel disorienting if not overwhelming. Not long ago, a friend shared an experience with me that, in the moment, triggered all of her internal alarm systems, resulting in her landing in total freak-out mode. In short, she and her husband decided to attend a small group for those enduring chronic anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges. She went to receive encouragement in her long and arduous healing journey from complex trauma, and her husband accompanied her to offer support. She walked into the meeting room expecting something similar to a Bible study with sharing opportunities similar to what occurs with Alcoholics Anonymous. Mentally and emotionally unprepared for a deep discussion on trauma, she quickly found herself overwhelmed and embarrassed by her intense reaction. The following week, however, she responded much differently, largely because she now knew what to expect and had been able to talk through this with her therapist. This allowed her to bring tools, like her current knitting project, as a grounding tool when she sensed herself becoming overwhelmed. The disciples Jesus spoke with in today’s verse would soon face numerous overwhelming and life-threatening circumstances that could’ve easily triggered panic, causing them to lash out physically or verbally, flee or withdraw from the danger, and therefore their calling, or become paralyzed by their fear. The Lord knew this. He grasped how difficult life would soon become for His first-century followers. That understanding, coupled with His incomprehensible love, motivated Him to prepare them for what lay ahead. First, He told them that one of them would betray Him, Peter would deny Him, and all of them would abandon Him during His darkest hour. But recognize, He didn’t say this to shame them but instead to help them, post failure, to return to Him and receive His grace. He also said that they’d experience persecution and even death for their faith. First, however, He spoke powerful promises to encourage and strengthen their trembling souls. Although He told them that He’d soon be leaving, and they couldn’t join, He also assured them that He wasn’t abandoning them. He was going to prepare a place for them and would eventually return for them, thereby declaring that their hardship wouldn’t get the final say. His love and grace would. He also let them know that they wouldn’t have to face their upcoming difficulties, or any other aspect of life, alone. He’d send them God the Holy Spirit, to strengthen, guide, and teach them, and speak through them. Then, in John 15:1-8, He spoke words that, when applied, have the capacity to bolster the most timid souls. In verses 4-5, He said, Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. That was their survival plan. Their freak-out escape route. When overpowered and overwhelmed, they weren’t to rely on themselves. They needed to turn and draw near to, remain vitally connected to, and spiritually alert to, His presence at work within them. He would give them everything they needed to live as the victorious conquerors He was calling them to be. They would overcome because He, their Savior, had already overcome. Intersecting Life & Faith: God still prepares His children for the hard things to come. Throughout Scripture, we read numerous warnings of the unavoidable difficulties ahead–sickness, wars and rumors of wars, natural disasters, relational storms with people who act antagonistically to our faith. But the Lord also describes, in detail, how to stand strong even when the ground beneath us feels ready to give way. As we “abide” or “remain” in Him through prayer, Bible reading, connecting with other Christ-followers, listening for His voice, and resting in His presence, He steadily and progressively replaces our fear with courage and peace, our confusion with clarity, and our heartache with joy. Equally important, He speaks of His grace before our moment of moral failure so that we know we can return to it and rely upon it. Phrased differently, He reminds us that His grace wasn’t His backup plan. It has been His life-saving, soul-nurturing strategy since the beginning of time. No matter what we encounter, we can trust that His grace is sufficient, for His strength is perfected, or reaches its full expression, in our weakness–when our weakness draws us closer to Him, that is.

Serious question. Why does my oven have a lasagna button? Are people out here crushing lasagna at such a high frequency that it earned its own dedicated setting? And more importantly… am I not eating enough lasagna?Then it hits me. I am officially out of passwords. Mentally. Spiritually. Emotionally. It's 2026 and we are still typing characters into tiny boxes like it's 2009. How is this still the system and why has no one saved us yet?And just when you think life couldn't get more dangerous, winter rolls around and suddenly we are propping open kitchen cabinets so pipes don't freeze. All good until you wake up half asleep at 3am, go to the bathroom, and absolutely wreck your chin on an open cabinet door.This episode is a rapid-fire rant about modern inconveniences, outdated systems, and the oddly specific things no one warned us about. Come for the lasagna button confusion. Stay for the password burnout and mild household injuries.

What if real mental toughness has nothing to do with being emotionless? Most people think they're mentally strong—until their plans fall apart and fear hijacks their brain. In this episode, I break down what real mental toughness actually is and why it's built in the middle of the storm, not during the easy seasons of life. Feeling stuck? It's time to take back control. If you're ready to master your mind and create real, lasting change, click the link below and start transforming your life today.

Most people lose control because they fuse their emotions with the moment, and in this episode, I break down why that's a problem. Detachment does not mean avoidance or suppression, it means stepping back internally while staying fully present. When I can separate how I feel from what's happening, I gain perspective without losing engagement. This skill lets you think clearly under pressure and act without emotional spillover. It's how you stay calm, sharp, and in control when things get intense. Show Notes: [02:03]#1 Separate observation from participation. [05:52]#2 Treat the moment as data, not a verdict.  [10:56]#3 Anchor to your principles, not to your feelings. [15:17] Recap Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught. It is enforced. If you are operating in environments where hesitation costs money, authority, or leverage, the Power Presence Mastermind exists as a controlled setting for discipline, execution, and consequence-based decision-making.

Have you ever been told (or told yourself) that if you truly trusted God, fear wouldn't keep showing up? That peace would come more naturally, your thoughts would settle faster, and your body wouldn't feel so tense all the time? But instead, you feel worn down. Mentally alert but physically tired. Spiritually anchored, yet internally unsettled. And when fear surfaces, it doesn't feel like rebellion; it feels like your system is overwhelmed. What if that fear isn't evidence of weak faith, but a signal from a body that has learned to stay protective to survive?Rooting for you,JessicaNext steps:Learn more about working with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.jessicahottle.com/mental-health-coachingOr book your free 20-minute consultation here!Get my self-paced course, Untangle Your Thoughts program: https://www.jessicahottle.com/healEmail me at >> jessica@jessicahottle.comThe information shared in this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical or clinical advice.

In this episode, Dr. Tommy Woods, a neuroscientist and performance coach, shares the best practices you should follow if you want to achieve optimal brain health. He also details how how these practices are tied into your overall health. Dr. Wood introduces his 3S Model, “Stimulus, Supply, and Support,” a simple and practical way to think about how the brain adapts, performs, and stays resilient over time. You'll learn why how you use your brain is the primary driver of brain function, how cardiovascular and metabolic health influence cognition, and why sleep is where the real adaptation happens. You'll also hear powerful coaching insights on handling stress (including why you can't think yourself out of stress), practical tools to downshift when you're under pressure, and the science-backed truth that the adult brain can learn “new tricks”. And you'll also learn why mistakes (and the grace to forgive yourself and others when they occur) are so necessary for continued growth. YOU WILL LEARN: How the “Stimulus–Supply–Support” framework make “brain optimization” doable without the overwhelm. You can't “outthink” yourself out of being stressed, but you can learn effective ways to manage it. Why mistakes should be reframed as necessary and critical components to growth. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Stimulated Mind, by Dr. Tommy Wood Behave, by Robert Sapolsky The Neuroscience of You, by Chantelle Pratt NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE: “The 3S are stimulus, support and supply.

And the brain is exactly the same.” — Dr. Tommy Wood “One of the best ways to buffer stress and build our stress capacity is exercise.” — Dr. Tommy Wood “You don't know all the amazing things that can happen if you just go out into the world and you're nice to other people.” — Dr. Tommy Wood Hosted on Acast.

Today we have Savanna. She's 32 years old from Minneapolis, MN and took her last drink on May 4th, 2023.   This episode is brought to you by:   Sign up and get 10% off: Better Help Café RE – THE social app for sober people   Every Sunday on Instagram, we post a roll call graphic and then you guys put your day count on there. It's a space for members to be loud and proud about their recovery as well as being there to support others.   [02:30] Thoughts from Paul:   Last week, Paul talked about how we want to end our relationship with alcohol. This week, he addresses the question "what do I do with all this space where alcohol used to be?".   Boredom can set into the empty space where alcohol used to be. This can trip a lot of folks up in early sobriety when they thought that quitting drinking was supposed to feel like some immediate transformation. Paul reminds us to think of the first gift of sobriety to be not having to negotiate anymore. Additional mental bandwidth is no longer wasted on alcohol where you asked yourself a lot of questions to determine if you should drink today or not. When we make the decision to quit, we have the freedom to do anything else with our time.   Quitting drinking is not self-deprivation or sacrifice. It's you clearing space for a fruitful life. Your mission is to explore.   [07:04] Paul introduces Savanna:   Savanna is 32 years old, lives in Minneapolis, MN and is a marketing manager. For fun, Savanna enjoys going camping, traveling, playing guitar, walking in the woods and spending time with her family and friends.   Savanna started out as the kid that said, "I don't need alcohol to have fun". She reflects that part of that was fear part of it was that she was a good kid. Alcohol became more accessible after she went to college and by her sophomore year she was working at a bar and drinking is what she and her friends would do at the end of the night.   The theme didn't change much as Savanna was in her 20's. She was in a relationship where she says the only bond they really had was the booze and it kept them together longer than it should have. The relationship ended shortly before the pandemic and that's when Savanna found herself living along and her days consisted of Zoom meetings and gin. The drinking gradually started earlier and earlier in the day.   For the next few years, Savanna was making more excuses for her drinking. She couldn't go on vacation or visit family without planning ahead to ensure she had access to alcohol to avoid withdrawals. Eventually drinking began to affect her performance at work and she was fired for the first time. This sent Savanna into a spiral of isolation and drinking every day.   Savanna accepted an invitation to a Cinco de Mayo party that her friends were having. Upon arrival, her long-time friend Maddie said "the light has left your eyes. You are not ok. What's going on?" and that was enough to crack Savanna open and she accepted Maddie's help.   Savanna's family got involved and helped her detox while waiting for a bed at Hazelden. Savanna says that she had a great experience there and getting sober with others was beneficial for her. She knew if she kept drinking, she was going to die and that knowledge has made it easy for her to stay away from alcohol.   Savanna reflects that the physical healing happened quickly. Mentally she was concerned about what life was going to look like after rehab. Once she was able to get back to work, she was motivated to do well and within two years was leading a department at her new job.   When Savanna is asked what it is like on the other side of the addiction, the word she goes back to is "limitless". She feels like she can do anything because she is no longer chained to the alcohol. The brain space she has now leaves room for the Savanna that is motivated and has ambitions. She is excited to create the next chapter of her life.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down You got to take the stairs back up I love you guys. Sobriety Tracker iTunes  RE YouTube
