What's the hardest part about being the main character in your own life? You're also writing the script as you go along. And sometimes it's hard to know when you need a scene change. Filmmaker Franklin Leonard encounters plenty of dramatic moments as he seeks to follow his creative dream. But those big moments, he comes to realize, aren't what will change him into the person he truly wants to be. Change happens not in an explosion or a sudden shift of scenery, but slowly, in moments of reflection, and sometimes after years of pleasing others. What matters is … it happens.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
What does it look like to bet on yourself, embrace reinvention, and build a YouTube channel that reaches millions?Michelle Khare is the creator and host of Challenge Accepted, the award-winning YouTube series where sherains with elite performers, athletes, and professionals to take on some of the world's toughest stunts and professions. But this conversation goes far beyond spectacle. It's about the psychology underneath the performance: how Michelle prepares for high-pressure environments, how she thinks about failure, and how she's built a serious creative business without losing the joy at the center of it. In this conversation, Michelle shares how her path began at the intersection of two demanding worlds: working as a video producer by day while competing as a professional cyclist at night. Out of that tension, she created something new — a format that blends physical challenge, storytelling, and deep iteration. She talks about the early trial-and-error phase of building her channel, the importance of owning her own IP, and why many creators don't realize they've already become entrepreneurs. Michelle also opens up about what it means to fail in public. She explains why growth often depends on being willing to look unpolished in front of other people, how she identifies her “strategic advantages” in unfamiliar environments, and why the low points — not just the polished outcomes — are what actually make a story worth telling. Along the way, she offers a compelling look at how she built a YouTube channel with over 5.4 million loyal subscribers. In this conversation, we explore:Why courage becomes more useful when it is systematizedHow Michelle built Challenge Accepted by blending athletics, storytelling, and businessWhy willingness to fail publicly can become a competitive advantageHow to identify your “strategic advantages” in unfamiliar environmentsWhy relationships, feedback, and team culture are essential to longevityHow to elevate the YouTube creator space into a respected part of the entertainment industryThis is a conversation about courage, yes, but also about design. How do you build a life where courage is not occasional, but trainable? How do you stay ambitious without burning out? And how you can keep evolving while staying grounded in the people and principles that matter most.__________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!

In classic Buddhism, there is often a meaningful emphasis on going very deep into the spiritual life, often through leaving the world behind for long periods of time and even becoming a lifelong yogi or monk. Is this the only way to move toward full awakening? There is often a lesser emphasis on a different path to awakening, the so-called "householder"— the student of mindfulness and awakening who doesn't want to—or simply can't— leave this world behind, but wants to turn their practice directly toward all aspects of their life in a contemporary setting. Ethan welcomes back Lou Sharma, a meditation teacher (and partner in the new A Mindful World community) for a open discussion of whether or not the path of the householder can also lead to awakening. This is a conversation for anyone who wants to engage with relationships, career, creative life, and social justice pursuits with more mindfulness, compassion and wisdom amidst all the hustle, bustle and chaos of life in the thick of the modern world. Lou Sharma is a mindfulness meditation teacher based in Charlotte, North Carolina. She has practiced meditation for over 15 years, as part of her ongoing studies of Buddhism within Tibetan Buddhist traditions, including the Magyu lineage of Lama Tsultrim Allione.

In this second installment of the March basketball series, Molly takes the analogy one step further. Last week was about knowing your playbook — recognizing the patterns behind your drinking. This week is about knowing the scoreboard.Because it's not just about how many drinks you had.It's about what the game is costing you.Molly explores the difference between evaluating a single night of drinking and looking at your overall “season record.” One off night may not define you. But trends over time tell a deeper story. Are you moving toward more peace, more energy, and more self-trust? Or are you stuck in negotiation, anxiety, and subtle disappointment?The episode weaves together personal reflection and neuroscience, breaking down how alcohol impacts GABA, glutamate, cortisol, and dopamine. Molly explains the neurological rebound effect behind 3 a.m. wake-ups, how dopamine drives anticipation and craving, and why repeated drinking can increase baseline stress sensitivity over time.This episode isn't about shame or dramatic declarations. It's about clarity. And clarity gives you the power to adjust your strategy mid-season.In This EpisodeWhy the scoreboard matters more than effortThe difference between a single “game” and your season recordThe hidden costs of drinking beyond obvious consequencesHow alcohol increases GABA — and why that calm feeling doesn't lastThe glutamate and cortisol rebound that fuels 3 a.m. wake-upsHow dopamine drives anticipation and cravingWhy repeated dopamine spikes can make normal life feel “flat”The cumulative impact of stress reactivity over timeThe mental and emotional cost of daily negotiationWhy adjusting your strategy mid-season is a sign of maturity, not failureKey TakeawaysThe scoreboard reflects outcome, not intention.Automatic does not mean inevitable.Alcohol may relieve stress temporarily but increase baseline stress over time.Dopamine fuels anticipation more than pleasure.One bad night is a single game. Trends over time are your season record.You are allowed to adjust your strategy mid-season.This Week's PracticeInstead of only tracking drinks, expand what you observe:How did you sleep?Did you wake up at 3 a.m.?How did your anxiety feel the next day?How much mental space did alcohol take up?Did you follow through on your plan?You are not trying to force change. You are gathering data. And clarity reduces ambivalence.Mentioned in This EpisodeThe neurological rebound effect (GABA and glutamate balance)Dopamine and anticipation conditioningSunnyside mindful drinking app (15-day free trial)Work With MollyIf you're ready to go beyond listening and begin applying these tools with support, you can learn more about working with Molly at:www.mollywatts.comYou can also reach out directly at molly@mollywatts.com to explore what level of support is right for you.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★
We Didn't Plan For This… is a new special series from the hosts of How Yoga Changed My Life about navigating life transitions, and unexpected change in real time.After Adrienne's sudden loss of her husband, so many of you reached out with the same words: “I didn't plan for this either.” A diagnosis. A body that changed. A marriage that shifted. A child who is struggling. A dream that fell apart.This first episode sets the tone for the series. We're not rehashing the details of what happened. We're talking about where we are now — and how yoga, breath, and small daily practices can help us keep showing up through grief, parenting, identity shifts, and hard seasons.This is not trauma-informed certification language. It's not five steps to resilience. It's honest conversation about strength, energy, work, friendship, our bodies, and ordinary days that don't look the way we expected.We're not trying to fix anything.We're living it — as it's happening.And at the end of each episode, we'll pause together before stepping back into our day.We didn't plan for this.But we're here.Support the Smith FamilySeveral people have asked how to support our family during this time.

Hoy realizaremos una practica para gestionar esa sensaciones que nos produce la dispersión mental ya sea en una practica de meditación o cualquier situación que hayamos pasado y mantengamos esa sensación en el cuerpo de manera continuada. De como gestionamos esta sensaciones hemos hablado ampliamente en el podcasts "651. Gestionar la sensación. Gestionar el cuerpo. Gestionar la disertación" En resumen: Lleva la atención a la sensación que queda en el cuerpo y deja que se pose sobre ella sin forzar. Encuentra su punto más dens y suelta sin esfuerzo, como abrir un puño. Si es muy intensa, acompaña con respiraciones hacia ese centro. Cuando el núcleo pierda densidad, deja que la atención se expanda al cuerpo entero. También es interesante saber: que la neurocientífica Jill Bolte Taylor documentó que una emoción generada, si no se alimenta con pensamiento adicional, dura en el cuerpo aproximadamente noventa segundos. Por eso la importancia de aprender a darse cuenta de nuestras dispersiones mentales y gestiónarlas.

Maintenance Mindset Mondays is all about cracking open the conversation about what REAL maintenance looks like – beyond the scale and deep into personal transformation. Join Gina and Odette as they dive into the week's focus, share insights on all things maintenance, and answer your questions. Whether you're new or experienced, there's something for everyone!This week, Gina and Odette focus on the role of awareness and self-regulation (and what that ACTUALLY means). As The Program evolves and snacks are adjusted, they explain how these changes help members move away from eating out of habit and toward paying attention to what their body actually needs. They encourage listeners to check in with themselves throughout the day and recognize personal patterns around hunger, routine, and timing. This conversation highlights that lasting weight loss comes from learning to trust your body, tune into its cues, and develop the self-regulation skills that support choices long after the program ends.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.

Our dialogue delves into the intricacies of anxiety and the underlying emotions that often fuel it. I invite listeners to reflect on their relationship with anxiety and how to discern the subtle messages it communicates.A significant focus of our discussion is the Hidden Emotion Model—a technique I learned and refined during my training that unveils the repressed feelings driving anxiety. Dr. Burns eloquently explains how individuals, often conscientious and "nice," suppress emotions like fear, anger, and disappointment, which leads to heightened anxiety. By recognizing and articulating these hidden emotions, individuals can often alleviate their anxiety significantly. Dr. Burns shares a compelling vignette involving a man struggling with panic attacks after receiving unexpected news about parenthood. This example illustrates the necessity of acknowledging uncomfortable emotions to pave the way for healing.Our conversation also touches on the societal stigmas surrounding emotional expression, particularly for those who identify as "nice" people. Dr. Burns and I explore how mental health diagnostics can inadvertently contribute to feelings of shame and inadequacy among patients. It's a powerful reminder that many who battle anxiety face not only internal struggles but external societal pressures that may dictate how they should feel or behave.#Anxiety, #PanicAttacks, #MentalHealth, #CBT, #DrDavidBurns, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #FeelingGood, #FeelingGreat, #Psychology, #Mindfulness, #SelfHelp, #Recovery, #Wellness, #Healing, #StressRelief, #InnerPeace, #MentalWellness, #SelfCare, #Therapy, #Coaching, #EmotionalIntelligence, #NervousSystem, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicDisorder, #SocialAnxiety, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #GrowthMindset, #Authenticity, #Boundaries, #SelfLove, #IntrusiveThoughts, #OCD, #HealthAnxiety, #MindfulLiving, #Breathwork, #Meditation, #Zen, #Spirituality, #PersonalGrowth, #Resilience, #Empowerment, #HealthyMind, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Psychotherapy, #Counseling, #WellnessJourney, #LifeCoaching, #MentalHealthMatters, #AnxietySupportSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're carrying a lot of emotion right now, but not much surprise, and that matters because surprise is what you feel when your system expects safety, predictability, and repair. In this episode, Vanessa Bennett, LMFT explores the difference between shock and recognition, how collective and generational trauma live in the body, and why so many women experience harm as familiarity rather than disbelief. We also name why “not all men” is so activating, how the “good guy” archetype can turn defensiveness into avoidance, and why allyship isn't enough anymore. The invitation now is intervention: choosing repair over exemption, and being willing to risk comfort and privilege to protect women and children.Additional ResourcesExplore: VanessaBennett.comBook: The Motherhood MythCommunity: Inner Compass CollectiveTraining: Inner Compass AcademyConnect with Inner CompassFollow on InstagramConnect with Vanessa Bennett:Follow on InstagramFollow on TikTokLearn more on SubstackConnect with Vanessa Bennett on LinkedInSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Art of Ubuntu—your layered practice day, designed to help everything you've learned this week become simple, usable, and real. In today's meditation, you'll gently combine the core techniques from earlier sessions—breath, mudra, grounding, and an Ubuntu affirmation—so you can settle your nervous system and return to connection in just a few minutes. This is a supportive practice for busy days or emotionally heavy moments, reminding you that belonging isn't something you have to chase—it's something you can return to, breath by breath, right where you are. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to The Art of Ubuntu—a meditation series inspired by the African philosophy that reminds us: "I am because we are." Ubuntu is the practice of remembering our shared humanity—especially in moments when life feels isolating, tense, or divided. It's not about being perfect or "nice." It's about choosing presence, dignity, and compassion—so you can feel more grounded in yourself while also feeling more connected to others. In this series, each meditation will help you strengthen the inner skills that make Ubuntu real in daily life: steadiness in your nervous system, warmth in your heart, and a clear sense of belonging. You'll explore what it means to offer kindness without self-abandonment, to set boundaries without losing your humanity, and to live with the quiet strength of community-minded love. Let this be your daily reminder that healing isn't only personal—it's relational—and your peace becomes even more powerful when it's shared. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "Ubuntu Mindfulness: A Gentle Practice to Feel Less Alone" episodes 2572-2578. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - CO-CREATOR QUEST Every day connect with the world around you in a meaningful way.

In this episode, Jomon reflects on death, impermanence, and how mindfulness can deepen our appreciation of life. Drawing from experiences with wildland firefighters, Zen retreats, and the teachings of Frank Ostasewski, she explores how turning toward mortality and grief can cultivate presence, compassion, and wholehearted living. Listeners are guided through practices to recognize impermanence, connect more deeply with others, and fully inhabit the precious moments we often take for granted. ★ Support this podcast ★
Ever wish you could shift your whole mood in the time it takes to breathe twice? We share a simple, one‑minute practice designed for those edge moments—right after waking, before bed, ahead of meditation, or just before stepping into a tough conversation—when the mind spirals and the body tightens. Rather than force change, we start by noticing what's true: the climate of your thoughts, the texture of your breath, the tone of your body. That honest check‑in reduces reactivity and sets the stage for a kinder state.From there, we guide you to soften the breath, unhook from worried thinking, and orient to safety by remembering protections close at hand—friends, mentors, loving faces, the room you're in. This opens enough space to recognize a powerful fact: you're okay right now. With that foothold, we pivot into gratitude and contentment, calling up one or two things that spark real warmth. The shift isn't theoretical; it's felt as your shoulders drop and your chest eases.We then invite love into the mix. Bring to mind someone—or a pet—you care about, sense their appreciation for you, and notice your own warmth moving out to meet them. Finally, we weave peace, contentment, and love into one steady state, a homecoming you can carry. Two deeper breaths help these qualities sink in so you can walk through your day with a responsive mind instead of a reactive one. If you're ready to reclaim a minute and make it meaningful, press play, try the practice, and tell us how it changed the next hour.

The Art of Ubuntu—your layered practice day, designed to help everything you've learned this week become simple, usable, and real. In today's meditation, you'll gently combine the core techniques from earlier sessions—breath, mudra, grounding, and an Ubuntu affirmation—so you can settle your nervous system and return to connection in just a few minutes. This is a supportive practice for busy days or emotionally heavy moments, reminding you that belonging isn't something you have to chase—it's something you can return to, breath by breath, right where you are. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to The Art of Ubuntu—a meditation series inspired by the African philosophy that reminds us: "I am because we are." Ubuntu is the practice of remembering our shared humanity—especially in moments when life feels isolating, tense, or divided. It's not about being perfect or "nice." It's about choosing presence, dignity, and compassion—so you can feel more grounded in yourself while also feeling more connected to others. In this series, each meditation will help you strengthen the inner skills that make Ubuntu real in daily life: steadiness in your nervous system, warmth in your heart, and a clear sense of belonging. You'll explore what it means to offer kindness without self-abandonment, to set boundaries without losing your humanity, and to live with the quiet strength of community-minded love. Let this be your daily reminder that healing isn't only personal—it's relational—and your peace becomes even more powerful when it's shared. This is day 6 of a 7-day meditation series, "Ubuntu Mindfulness: A Gentle Practice to Feel Less Alone" episodes 2572-2578.

Can you really build stress resilience, improve focus, and support recovery in just one minute a day? Yes! And no, you don't need a meditation cushion to do it. In this episode of Making Shift Happen, Coach Jen breaks down simple mindfulness practices for busy professionals, gravel cyclists, and mountain bikers who want better performance on and off the bike. If you've ever thought: “I'm bad at meditation,” “My mind won't stop racing,” or “I don't have time for mindfulness,” then this episode is for you. You'll learn how to incorporate one-minute mindfulness practices, breathing exercises, and somatic tools into your daily routine, including during rides, strength training, meals, and stressful workdays. Mindfulness isn't about clearing your mind; it's about building awareness. Fortunately, that same awareness builds resilience as an athlete. What You'll Learn in This Episode What mindfulness really is (and what it's not) Why you can't “do meditation wrong” How to manage stress with simple breathing techniques How mindfulness improves cycling performance and recovery How to build emotional resilience as a high-performing athlete Easy mindful eating strategies for athletes A powerful legs-up-the-wall recovery practice for better sleep How to reduce stress in one minute or less Mindfulness practice helps reduce stress among other things. Stress impacts your Heart rate variability (HRV), sleep quality, muscle recovery, cortisol levels, and decision-making under pressure (like on a race or bike course). For endurance athletes and strength-focused cyclists, stress management isn't optional; it directly impacts training consistency, power output, and long-term performance. So, by adding short, daily mindfulness exercises, you can help improve your focus during rides, enhance pacing awareness, support nervous system recovery, increase stress tolerance, and reduce reactive decision-making. This is one way you can take your performance and training to the next level. Check out these other relevant episodes: 241. From Mountain Bike trails to Mindfulness with Karen Jarchow 243.

Welcome to a new episode of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. This special episode – the last of two question-and-response (Q&R) installments – marks the publication of the second book by Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino. Calm in the Storm: Zen Ways to Cultivate Stability in an Anxious World is intended to help readers meet the current polycrisis with love and stability, but also forcefulness and resilience. According to Plum Village tradition, Jo and Brother Phap Huu recorded two episodes responding to questions by listeners which connect to the book's themes. In this second part they answer questions on dealing with anxious thoughts, raising children in uncertain times, reacting to the anger of those around us, managing fears and hypochondria, and much more.

But what we have seen in some of the most impactful work is that, when people take the time to be still, to listen, and to embrace and hold feelings and emotions and these projects in a calm manner, they are able to direct, lead, and not be carried away with the force field of anxiety, of fear, of restlessness.” “Mindfulness is only true mindfulness if it’s generating love and compassion.” “We can say so many things about Buddhist history and Buddhist philosophy, but what the Buddha transmitted to us and really wanted was for us to ask the question, ‘How can I put these practices into daily life?'” “When everything is changing, the most important thing is to also know what needs to remain the same.” “Our mindfulness should not be a blockage to other people’s engagement with us – but, at the same time, we do have to have boundaries. We do have to have clarity.” “Mindfulness is to lead an ethical life. If you’re practicing mindfulness and you’re continuing to cause harm to the earth, to living beings, to yourself and your loved ones, maybe that is wrong mindfulness. As Thay said, ‘Is the burglar mindful?'”
Today's meditation focuses on the First Chakra (Root)—your foundation of safety, stability, and belonging. With gentle breath and grounding awareness, you'll reconnect to the steady support beneath you—your body, the earth, and the present moment—so you feel less scattered and more anchored in your day. This practice is especially supportive when you're feeling anxious, unsteady, or disconnected, reminding you that you don't have to carry life alone: you are part of something larger, and you are supported right where you stand. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to The Art of Ubuntu—a meditation series inspired by the African philosophy that reminds us: "I am because we are." Ubuntu is the practice of remembering our shared humanity—especially in moments when life feels isolating, tense, or divided. It's not about being perfect or "nice." It's about choosing presence, dignity, and compassion—so you can feel more grounded in yourself while also feeling more connected to others. In this series, each meditation will help you strengthen the inner skills that make Ubuntu real in daily life: steadiness in your nervous system, warmth in your heart, and a clear sense of belonging. You'll explore what it means to offer kindness without self-abandonment, to set boundaries without losing your humanity, and to live with the quiet strength of community-minded love. Let this be your daily reminder that healing isn't only personal—it's relational—and your peace becomes even more powerful when it's shared. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Ubuntu Mindfulness: A Gentle Practice to Feel Less Alone" episodes 2572-2578.

In this episode of Trail Runner Nation's Aging as an Athlete series, along with Krissy Moehl, we welcome elite ultrarunner and therapist Darcy Piceu for a thoughtful conversation about longevity in endurance sports. Drawing on more than two decades of racing at the highest level, Darcy explains that there is no "magic pill" for staying in the sport long term, emphasizing instead the importance of self-care, strength work, listening to the body, and adapting training as athletes age. The discussion explores the mental side of endurance, including acceptance of changing performance, learning to manage negative thoughts during long races, and developing the wisdom that comes from decades of experience. Darcy also shares how mindfulness and time in nature play a powerful role in both mental health and athletic performance, something she incorporates into her therapy practice. We reflect on the evolving identity of an athlete over time, balancing competitiveness with enjoyment, family life, and other pursuits beyond running. We highlight that staying in the sport for decades is less about chasing podiums and more about cultivating resilience, perspective, and a lasting love for the trail. Check out Darcy's Therapy practice, "Therapy in Action" or get in touch with her darcypq@gmail.com.

What questions are tugging at you right now, and how might exploring the answers help you live and perform with more clarity?We're back with a special edition of the Finding Mastery podcast: another Ask Me Anything episode, built from the deep, thoughtful questions submitted by our community.In this AMA, Michael Gervais is joined by Jeff Byers, former NFL player, Co-Founder and CEO of Momentous, and longtime friend of Finding Mastery. Jeff has built something very special with Momentous, a supplement company grounded in transparency and integrity in an industry that can be full of noise and misinformation. He often says trust is earned, and he takes that responsibility personally.His relentless approach to mastery, both for himself and for the team he's building at Momentous—makes him an ideal co-host to help Mike wrestle with questions across a wide range of topics… how to perform with more clarity, how to work skillfully with strong emotions, and how to build a life that feels aligned with what matters most.Key insights we explored:Shift from perfection to purpose… why “the constant pursuit of perfectionism” is a setup for burnout, and how purpose changes the whole frame.Downregulating the nervous system… practical ways to move from sympathetic “on” to parasympathetic “rest and digest,” including breath, gaze, laughter, touch, nature, and intentionally induced recovery.Anger and emotional skill… how to feel anger without outward harm or inward collapse, and why the goal is to build the capacity to be “unbothered.”Loneliness and connection… why loneliness can surge when you leave familiar people and routines, and how “time-boxing” the feeling can help you train it instead of letting it bleed through the entire day.Reflection when life is full… how to build a sustainable rhythm for inner work, from 90-second practices to scheduled retreats, and why scheduling and celebration matter. If you find yourself wrestling with perfectionism, emotional spillover, loneliness, or a life that won't slow down, this AMA is a strong reminder that mastery is trained—one choice, one practice, one reset at a time.__________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!
