I've been glued to The Lindsay Clancy Trial for weeks, and for me it feels personal. As a new mom, I was diagnosed with postpartum anxiety/OCD. As I listen to the testimonies of this trial all I can think is - thank god my help worked. The Lindsay Clancy Trial is laying bare how much our system downplays the challenges of postpartum women. In today's episode, I'll share a bit of my own story, give my thoughts on the expert testimony in the case, and address all of the ways that alcohol is being left out of the conversation. New moms, if you are struggling please know: You are not alone, and there is help. I know, I was there, and I'm so grateful the help I found worked for me.

Catheryn had a prayer journal idea she literally sketched out on paper before she ever touched a design program. Here's how she went from that sketch to a successful Kickstarter — and what she learned about faith, fear, and following through. Today I am sitting down with Catheryn, founder of Heartfelt Pages and Print School alumni. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Catheryn shares the story behind A Letter to God — a lined vegan leather prayer journal built around the simple format of Dear God to In Jesus' Name, Amen — and how eight years of personal journaling became a published product. You'll hear why Catheryn chose a Kickstarter to fund her first print run (and the faith conviction behind that decision), what the difference between print on demand and working with a quality manufacturer actually felt like in her hands, and the mindset shifts she had to work through around pricing, marketing, and putting herself out there. Her reminder that faith is an action verb is one you'll want to write down. Shop A Letter to God at heartfeltpages.com About me: I am Polly Payne, the CEO and founder of Horacio Printing.

If you've been on social media for more than two seconds and you own a small business, you've seen it: "Google just changed this," "AI just changed that," "this is a total game changer." Jerry gets pinged about these constantly, from clients and from friends who own small businesses, and 99% of the time, his honest answer is that it's a nothing burger. In this episode, he breaks down two of the latest ones making the rounds: adding social media platforms to Google Search Console, and becoming a "preferred source" for Google AI. He explains what Search Console actually is, why the ability to connect Instagram and YouTube to it is genuinely useful data, and why it is absolutely not a secret shortcut to ranking on Google. He also shares an actual, untested theory he plans to try himself: treating social media descriptions like mini blog posts rather than throwaway captions. The second half tackles the "preferred AI source" claim head on. Jerry explains what this feature actually does, individual users selecting trusted sources for their own AI results, why it has nothing to do with a business self-selecting itself as an expert, and why the vast majority of chiropractic websites don't even have the authority required to be eligible in the first place. He closes with the underlying principle that ties both examples together: none of these tools matter if you don't have real authority behind them. Reviews, credentials, backlinks, social following, and genuine expertise are what Google and AI are actually looking for. Tools and technical settings can help you communicate that authority once it exists. They can't manufacture it. Topics Covered Why "changes" get marketed as "game changers" on social media What Google Search Console is and why it's worth being connected to The new ability to add Instagram and YouTube as standalone Search Console properties What this data actually tells you, and what it does not (it will not make your Instagram outrank your website) Jerry's untested theory: treating social captions like mini blog posts to give Google more to work with What "becoming a preferred AI source" for Google AI actually means Why this is an individual user setting, not a business self-selection tool Why most chiropractic websites don't have the authority to even qualify for this The YouTube subscribe button analogy explaining how preferred sources actually work The core principle underneath both examples: authority is the only thing that actually matters Need Help?

When we think of our roads we tend to think of the tarmac or bridges but not what's next to them: guardrails. We hope to never meet one but Steve Eimers knows more about them than he ever wanted to. After his daughter passed away in a car accident he learned the culprit was a guardrail that was banned but hadn't yet been uninstalled yet. Ever since he has traveled the U.S. inspecting our roads and speaking with politicians about how to improve safety and save lives.

⚠️Trigger warning: this episode discusses rape, sexual assault, and PTSD.⚠️ What do you do when the worst thing you never expected becomes the story you were always meant to tell? Jessica shares the journey from sexual assault survivor to published author — and why healing has to include God. Today I am sitting down with Jessica, founder of Sting and Honey and author of *This Is Her: Navigating PTSD with God*. In this episode of the Dream Printing Podcast, Jessica shares her personal story of surviving sexual assault, navigating PTSD across eight years of healing, and why she wrote the faith-based resource she couldn't find anywhere else. You'll hear what Jessica learned about complex PTSD that most people don't talk about, why she believes secular therapy alone leaves a gap for Christian women, and what it actually looked like to bring this book to life after years of feeling silenced by trauma. Whether you're in the thick of healing or just starting to ask hard questions, this conversation is an honest look at what it means to navigate the unthinkable with God — not around him.
Social media has made it easier than ever to recognise ourselves in conversations about ADHD, trauma, anxiety and burnout. But what happens when every diagnosis feels familiar and you leave feeling more confused than before? This week, Julia, Emily and Sophie answer a listener's question about knowing the difference between the ordinary struggles of life and when it's time to seek help. They explore why labels can be useful but aren't always the starting point, how to notice the areas of life where you're feeling stuck, and why your own experience of distress is reason enough to ask for support. It's a compassionate conversation about self-understanding, diagnosis and learning to trust yourself before the noise around you.

The Root Cause of Addiction & the Path to Your Authentic Self | Pax PrentissWhat if addiction isn't the problem itself—but a symptom of something deeper?On this episode of The Healthy CEO, Jason Wright sits down with Pax Prentiss, co-founder and CEO of Passages Malibu and co-author of The Alcoholism and Addiction Cure.Pax's story is extraordinary. After struggling with heroin, cocaine, and alcohol addiction for nearly a decade, repeated attempts at traditional treatment failed to produce lasting sobriety. Eventually, Pax and his father began asking a different question:Why was he using in the first place?That question changed everything.Rather than focusing exclusively on managing addiction, Pax began addressing the underlying issues driving his substance use. That experience eventually became the foundation for Passages Malibu and its individualized, holistic approach to treatment.Jason and Pax explore addiction, recovery, mental health, family dynamics, physical wellness, and the growing normalization of substances in American culture. But the conversation ultimately becomes something even bigger: How do we stop escaping from our lives and become the healthiest, most authentic versions of ourselves?In This EpisodeJason and Pax discuss:Pax's personal journey from heroin addiction to more than two decades of sobrietyThe question his father asked that changed his recovery: "Why do you think you're using?"Why Pax believes addiction can be a symptom of deeper underlying conditionsDepression, anxiety, trauma, stress, insecurity, low self-esteem, and other factors that can contribute to substance useWhy treating the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—is central to the Passages philosophyHow individualized therapy differs from traditional group-based treatmentWhy escaping uncomfortable emotions can prevent real healingThe importance of confronting problems rather than continually numbing themMarijuana, today's higher-potency products, and Pax's concerns about normalization of recreational drug useKetamine therapy and the addiction cases Pax says he is increasingly encounteringPsychedelic-assisted approaches to trauma and why Pax personally favors clear-headed, individualized therapyHow families can recognize when helping has crossed the line into enablingWhen families should consider working with a professional interventionistWhy recovery doesn't end when someone leaves a treatment centerThe importance of aftercare and creating a healthy home environmentWhy family members may need to change their own relationship with alcohol when someone returns from treatmentThe example parents set for their children around drinking, marijuana, and other substancesWhy Jason and Pax both believe an alcohol-free lifestyle can be transformativeSleep, nutrition, exercise, mental clarity, and their role in rebuilding a healthy lifeIdentity-based habits and becoming the person you actually want to beWhy recovery isn't about creating a new person—it's about rediscovering the person underneath the addictionThe Bigger Idea: Becoming Your Authentic SelfOne of the most powerful themes of the conversation is that recovery isn't simply about removing drugs or alcohol.It's about rebuilding a life.Pax describes a whole-person approach that addresses psychological, physical, relational, and spiritual health. The objective isn't simply sobriety. It's helping someone rediscover who they are without the substance—and begin moving toward the healthiest version of that person.Jason connects this philosophy to his own pursuit of health and personal development: the idea that genuine wellness can't be one-dimensional.Physical health matters.Mental clarity matters.Relationships matter.Purpose matters.Spiritual health matters.And the environments and habits we build around ourselves matter.Ultimately, the goal is not perfection.It's continuing to move toward your authentic self.About Pax PrentissPax Prentiss is the co-founder and CEO of Passages Malibu. His own experience with addiction and recovery inspired the creation of an individualized treatment model focused on identifying and addressing underlying conditions associated with substance use.Passages opened in 2001 and uses a multidisciplinary approach involving medical, clinical, therapeutic, physical, and spiritual components of recovery.Pax is also the co-author of The Alcoholism and Addiction Cure and says Passages has helped more than 40,000 people pursue sobriety and recovery.Need Help?Pax personally continues to speak with individuals and families seeking treatment and takes admission calls for Passages.Passages Admissions: 310-589-2880Passages operates locations in Malibu and Ventura, California. Pax explains in the episode that the Ventura location works in-network with many insurance plans, while insurance may also contribute toward treatment at the Malibu location.If you or someone you love is struggling with substance use, seek qualified professional help. Treatment decisions should be made with appropriate medical and mental-health professionals.Authentic HealthRecovery and long-term wellness involve more than removing unhealthy behaviors. Nutrition, sleep, movement, and providing the body with the nutrients it needs are all part of creating an environment where better health is possible.Learn more about the Authentic Health Foundational Stack at shopauthentichealth.com.Use promo code JASON for 10% off your order.The Healthy CEO explores the intersection of health, performance, longevity, leadership, and living well.If this conversation helped you—or made you think of someone who needs to hear it—share this episode with them.And don't forget to subscribe to The Healthy CEO and leave a five-star rating.
In this episode of The Father's Rights Playbook, family law attorney Mark Reel Jr. discusses how to defend against false domestic violence allegations in family court. He highlights how California's expanding definition of domestic violence—which includes coercive control—can be weaponized as a "sword" rather than used as a "shield" during custody battles. Ruel explains that unlike criminal court's "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard, family court relies on a lower "preponderance of the evidence" burden, making credibility the central battleground. To counter false claims, he recommends three main strategies: exposing lies and inconsistencies through cross-examination, demonstrating that the accuser was actually the primary aggressor, and utilizing the "8 Mile method"—admitting minor personal flaws or past mistakes on the stand to build trust and authenticity with the judge.

"White allies need help overcoming ambivalence in their anti-racism commitments" - Dr. Yara Mekawi University of Louisville Color Lab ProfessorDespite Kentucky law banning DEI in public colleges and universities, the University of Louisville still has a Color Lab. An associate professor from this Color Lab, Dr. Yara Mekawi, was recorded by an undercover journalist from Accuracy in Media (AIM) giving a presentation on Beyond Fragility at the American Psychological Association (APA) conference on moving beyond white fragility.In it, Yara Mekawi talks about using psychology to help white people overcome their guilt and the mental issues they develop from being white and how to become a better white ally.The University of Louisville receives $134 million a year in state taxpayer funds, and Mekawi is a government employee.It is wrong to push ideas that treat people differently based upon their skin color. It is wrong to tell people they should feel guilty, oppressed, or emotional just because of the color of their skin. It is wrong to use taxpayer funds to push these ideas.The Legislature needs to put some real teeth in their DEI law, otherwise it was all just performative nonsense.

Today I am celebrating my birthday by highlighting the stories of dreamers who have brought their paper products to life.

You'll hear from ten students who used Print School to go from idea to launch, including a children's bedtime book, a marriage relationship planner, a 12-month identity devotional, a homeschool and home management planner, a daily gratitude journal, and more.

Being a chiropractor is both awesome and genuinely frustrating, and Jerry Kennedy has felt both sides of that for years, both in his own nine years of practice and in working with chiropractors ever since. In this episode, he wants to offer something a lot of chiropractors don't hear enough: an honest word of encouragement. Jerry talks about the prejudice chiropractors face, including his own skepticism before ever becoming a patient himself, and why some of that reputation, uncomfortable as it is to admit, has actually been earned by bad actors in the profession. But he pushes back hard on the idea that this should translate into insecurity for the vast majority of chiropractors who are doing honest, skilled work and genuinely helping people. From there, Jerry lays out what he believes is the actual core of chiropractic, optimizing the health and function of the spine, and argues that pain relief, wellness benefits, and everything else are meaningful but secondary to that main thing. He gets refreshingly direct about a hard truth: being great at adjusting is not enough on its own, and being great at business is not enough on its own either. Both matter, and chiropractors who are only strong in one area are leaving real impact and income on the table. The episode closes with a personal story about switching upper cervical techniques mid-career, discovering he was mediocre at one style and excellent at another, and why finding the technique that fits you personally, rather than the one a seminar tells you is superior, is part of building real confidence in the chair. Topics Covered The duality of being a chiropractor: genuinely awesome and genuinely difficult at the same time Jerry's own skepticism about chiropractic before becoming a patient himself An honest, in-house acknowledgment that some of the profession's bad reputation has been earned Why that reputation still doesn't reflect the vast majority of chiropractors doing honest work The core thing chiropractic actually does: optimizing the health and function of the spine Why pain relief and wellness benefits are real but secondary to that main thing The uncomfortable truth: being a great adjuster isn't enough, and being great at business isn't enough either Why confidence tends to follow competence, not the other way around Jerry's personal experience switching from side posture to knee chest upper cervical technique Why the "best technique" is the one you personally get the best results with The three things Jerry believes every chiropractor needs: security in who you are, skill at adjusting, and competence running a business Need Help?

It wouldn't have been a proverbial die. It would be a true death." — Tracey Wilkinson 144 - PTSD and Institutional Betrayal with Tracey Wilkinson What happens when the people we trust to save others cannot get help saving themselves? In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the First Responder Wellness Podcast, host Conrad Weaver sits down with Tracey Wilkinson — a retired Fort Wayne, Indiana firefighter with 23 years of service — to talk about one of the most important conversations in the first responder world: what happens when you fall apart, and the institution you gave your life to looks the other way. Tracey's story begins with a line-of-duty death at a training exercise she was responsible for as a training officer. The guilt of that incident, layered on top of two decades of accumulated trauma, eventually led to a PTSD diagnosis, severe physical symptoms, and a period of suicidal ideation so dark that she describes standing on the edge multiple times. What kept her here — and her answer is both heartbreaking and profound — was her fierce protectiveness of the people who would have had to respond to her if she hadn't been. This conversation is for the firefighter who is white-knuckling it through every shift, for the officer who doesn't know why small incidents are suddenly setting them off, and for the administrators and union leaders who want to do better but don't know where to start. Tracey brings both her lived experience and her academic training to offer one of the most grounded, compassionate, and clinically informed conversations on this podcast. +++++ Need Help?

JOIN US AT THE 2026 DUCKS UNLIMITED EXPO! July 31 - August 2 at the RENASANT CONVENTION CENTER in Memphis, TN Learn what's driving a new botulism outbreak in the Klamath Basin and what conservation partners are doing to help protect thousands of waterfowl. Host Dr. Mike Brasher is joined by Jeff McCreary, Ducks Unlimited's Director of Operations for the Western Region, and Dr. Dan Smith, DU waterfowl scientist, to discuss deteriorating habitat conditions in one of North America's most important waterfowl landscapes.After a winter of record-low snowpack and a spring that produced exceptional numbers of ducklings, water levels in the Klamath Basin are rapidly declining.

Click here for a Coaching Strategy Call with Conrad Weaver: https://firstresponderwellness.co/schedule/ 143 - Ego Kills Careers, and How to Lead Differently with Dr. Ron Camacho "There is a pre-therapy Camacho and a post-therapy Camacho. They are two totally different people." — Chief Ron Camacho What does it take to go from being the most feared officer in the building to the most trusted chief in the department? For Dr. Ron Camacho, it took therapy — and the courage to look honestly at who he had become. In this episode of the First Responder Wellness Podcast, Conrad Weaver sits down with Chief Ron Camacho of the North Charleston, South Carolina Police Department — a 30-year law enforcement veteran who built his career in York, Pennsylvania, advised police forces in Afghanistan, managed a State Department contract in Mexico, and eventually led two police departments: a 40-person agency in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and now a 400-officer department in one of South Carolina's most complex cities. But his title is not the most interesting thing about him. What makes this conversation different is his honesty. Chief Camacho describes his early leadership style as 'a cross between Patton and Genghis Khan.' He admits to intentionally trying to break officers in disciplinary meetings — and celebrating when he made them cry. He was, as he puts it, angry every day. On the path to a stroke, a use-of-force incident, or worse. In this episode, you will hear: Why ego in law enforcement is a symptom of insecurity — not toughness How unresolved childhood trauma drove his early leadership failures The specific moment therapy changed everything How he scaled from a 40-person to a 400-person department and what he had to unlearn The real story behind his department cutting use-of-force by 50% in year one Why he teaches 'Ego Kills Careers' classes to every rank in his department How cross-industry learning from business leaders made him a better cop The coaching program he brought into his department to develop officers at every level How to start building self-awareness — even if you have never been to therapy This episode is for every first responder who has ever suspected that the culture around them — or inside them — might be part of the problem. It is for supervisors and chiefs who want to know what servant leadership actually looks like in practice. And it is for anyone who has been told that going to therapy means you are weak. Chief Camacho proves, with data and with his own life, that it means the opposite. Subscribe to the First Responder Wellness Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

Fertility specialist and Montgomery Fertility Center founder Oluyemisi "Yemi" Famuyiwa discusses the article "What no one tells you about fertility, from a doctor." Yemi discusses the article through a compassionate look at the emotional, biological, and practical realities patients often discover only after struggling to conceive. She explores fertility myths, reproductive timing, menstrual cycle awareness, egg health, sperm production, male factor infertility, patient anxiety, and the hope and grief that often coexist during the fertility journey. This episode examines why being healthy does not guarantee pregnancy, why both partners need evaluation, and why fertility care must address the human soul as well as the science. It is a reassuring conversation about replacing silence and shame with understanding, support, and choices that help patients feel less alone. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

The Nationals put up a football score with 23 runs last night, so we'll start with that offensive explosion before shifting to the Commanders. Beyond wide receiver, the biggest areas to address are edge rusher and cornerback—adding another pass rusher opposite their current group and more depth in the secondary would make this defense much more complete heading into the season.
At some point, every entrepreneur says the same thing:"I need help."But help with what?That's where most business owners get stuck.In this episode of The MindShare Podcast, David Greenspan shares a conversation from the gym that sparked a much bigger discussion about hiring, delegation, leadership, and building a business that doesn't rely on you doing everything yourself.Too many entrepreneurs hire because they're overwhelmed—not because they have a clear plan.They bring someone on board, then spend weeks trying to figure out what that person should actually be doing.Sound familiar?David breaks down why that's backwards, how to identify exactly where you need help, and why your next hire shouldn't begin with a job title—it should begin with understanding how you spend your own time.He also shares one of the simplest yet most effective exercises he uses with coaching clients to determine what should stay on your plate and what should come off.Plus...Once you hire someone, how do you know if it's actually working?If your answer is simply, "I feel less stressed," you may be measuring the wrong thing.This episode will help you think differently about delegation, accountability, leadership, and creating measurable results inside your business.Whether you're a Realtor, entrepreneur, small business owner, or leader building a team, this conversation will help you stop hiring reactively and start building intentionally.What You'll LearnWhy most entrepreneurs hire too late—and for the wrong reasonsThe biggest mistake business owners make before hiring an adminHow to identify exactly where you need helpThe four-box exercise to define your next hireWhy awareness always comes before delegationThe difference between assigning tasks and creating ownershipHow to measure whether an employee is actually improving your businessWhy tracking data beats relying on feelingsHow hiring changes your role as a business ownerWhy systems and communication matter just as much as peopleEpisode Breakdown[00:00] "I Need Help"The gym conversation that inspired this episodeWhy feeling overwhelmed isn't a hiring strategyThe question every business owner should answer first[09:00] Before You Hire Anyone...Understanding where your time actually goesWhy awareness is the first step toward delegationThe exercise that reveals your next hire[18:00] The Four-Box FrameworkWhat you're good atWhat you enjoy doingWhat you're bad atWhat you hate doingHow these answers shape your business[27:00] Commercial Break[29:00] Stop Assigning Tasks—Start Creating OwnershipWhy ownership creates accountabilityMoving from busy work to meaningful contributionBuilding roles that grow with your business[38:00] How Do You Know It's Working?Measuring success with tangible dataDefining expectations before hiringWhy business should be measured the same way elite athletes measure performance[48:00] Hiring Doesn't Fix Broken BusinessesWhy people amplify your systemsThe importance of communication and leadershipPreparing your business before expanding your team[55:00] Your Action PlanTrack everything you do for one weekComplete the four-box exerciseIdentify where another person could create the greatest impactBuild your next role with intentionKey TakeawayHiring isn't about removing work.It's about putting the right work in the hands of the right people.Before you bring someone into your business, get clear on what success looks like, what should be delegated, and how you'll measure whether it's actually making a difference.The businesses that grow intentionally don't just add people.They create clarity, ownership, accountability, and measurable outcomes.

In this episode, I sit down with Cam Lanzilli, college pitching coach and former professional pitching development specialist with the Baltimore Orioles, to talk about what elite pitching development actually looks like behind the scenes and what most coaches and families are getting completely wrong.Cam breaks down why recruiting pitchers who "throw strikes" is the wrong way to think about command, what focal point training is and why it changes everything, and how he uses data and movement profiles to develop pitchers individually rather than forcing them into a one size fits all system.We also get into the Tommy John epidemic, why low volume training in the fall is actually the smartest thing a pitcher can do. He also mentions what he saw in a preferred walk-on that nobody else wanted that turned him into a scout magnet by the end of the season.This conversation is a must listen for pitchers, parents, and coaches who want to understand what modern elite pitching development actually looks like and why uniqueness beats everything else in recruiting.Topics Covered:0:00 Intro0:08 Is "recruit guys who throw strikes" actually true or just a social media trend3:55 What acquiring strikes actually means and why zone rate alone is misleading4:45 How focal point training works and why pitchers should stop throwing to their target7:35 What the average pitch miss differential is in the MLB and what it means for development8:39 What Cam would teach hitters knowing everything he knows as a pitching coach10:35 A simple breakdown of focal point vs target and how pitchers can use it today13:45 What Cam learned about patience from his mom being an English teacher15:58 The biggest differences between developing college pitchers and professional pitchers19:00 Why Cam keeps fall workloads intentionally low and what he is actually building toward21:39 The real reason Tommy John injuries spike at the start of every season25:03 How Cam gets pitchers to buy in when they are resistant or listening to someone else25:36 Why Cam always has a reason before asking a pitcher to make a change27:43 When is the right time for a pitcher to get a biomechanics assessment and 3D motion capture29:42 The preferred walk-on nobody wanted who became a scout magnet by the end of the season32:34 What Cam looks for first when he watches a pitcher and why uniqueness beats everything36:53 The advice Cam would give every player and family navigating the recruiting process todayFollow Cam Lanzilli:Twitter/X: https://x.com/LanzilliCam https://x.com/eckerdbaseballCheck Out Patrick's Stuff:•
This host is in need our some serious help....
141 - Shot in the line of Duty - with Hali Bradford She arrived at the hospital with 30 seconds of life and a 99.99% chance of not surviving. Her surgeon was moments from calling her time of death. And then — without medical explanation — the bleeding stopped. This week on the First Responder Wellness Podcast, host Conrad Weaver sits down with Hali Bradford, a Louisiana National Guard MP veteran and police officer who was shot and nearly killed in the line of duty on August 5, 2023. What followed was not only a fight for physical survival — it became a fight for her identity, her career, her mental health, and her will to live. In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Hali recounts the moment she found herself looking down the barrel of a rifle during a domestic disturbance call — and how her CrossFit-built physical strength allowed her to drag herself out of the house, paralyzed from the waist down, to reach the partner who helped save her life. She was shot with a .223 round that entered her side and exploded into her abdomen, leaving bullet fragments across her pelvis, a fractured hip, nerve damage, and a permanently paralyzed left foot. But the physical injuries were only part of the story. In this episode, Hali opens up about: - The profound lack of support she received from her department after the shooting - Being terminated and stripped of her badge — a badge she nearly died for - Living with no medical insurance, no benefits, and no workers' comp settlement while legally barred from working - Navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, and dark intrusive thoughts in the aftermath - The trial of the man who shot her, which forced her to relive every detail - How faith, discovered one year after the shooting, gave her a foundation to stand on - The healing power of first responder wellness retreats and the sisterhood she found there - Mission trips to Costa Rica and Africa that have reconnected her to her lifelong calling to serve . This episode is for every first responder, veteran, and family member who has ever been left to navigate trauma alone. It is for anyone who has wondered whether help is really worth reaching for. And it is for anyone who needs to be reminded that survival — real survival — looks like choosing to get up one more time. Hali Bradford chose to get up. And she is still getting up.

In this episode, I sit down with Clay Martin, pitching coach at the University of Pittsburgh, to talk about what it really takes to compete on the mound at the highest level of college baseball and what separates pitchers who get there from those who don't.Clay breaks down his journey from Division III to the ACC, what he learned building one of the best pitching staffs in Division II at Seton Hill, and what the biggest adjustments have been in his first year coaching in the ACC at Pitt.We also get into the development side, why Clay believes failure is the most underrated tool in a pitcher's growth, what he would do completely differently if he could coach young pitchers over again, and what he saw in national Pitcher of the Year Ian Korn before anyone else did.This conversation is especially valuable for pitchers and families trying to understand what the jump to elite college baseball really looks like and what coaches are actually evaluating when they recruit at the highest level.Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 0:05 What it was like competing at the ACC Tournament for the first time 2:00 The biggest adjustments Clay has made coaching in the ACC at Pitt 3:47 How TrackMan is changing the strike zone in college baseball and what it means for pitchers 5:45 What made Seton Hill one of the best Division II programs in the country 7:37 The biggest lesson Clay took from his time at Seton Hill 8:57 What is Seton Hill's secret sauce for recruiting good players year after year 10:51 The real talent difference between Division II and ACC baseball 13:00 How Clay recruits pitchers to fit the park and the program at Pitt 14:37 Is struggling to put hitters away a mental problem or a mechanical one 16:09 Command first or velocity first and which pitcher Clay would rather recruit 18:00 The resources at Pitt that give pitchers a real developmental edge 19:46 The one thing Clay wants to do better as a pitching coach next season 22:02 The biggest coaching lesson Clay learned working with 14U travel ball players 24:37 Why keeping it simple is the most underused tool in player development 25:51 When Clay realized Ian Korn had what it took to become national Pitcher of the Year 28:22 Was there ever a hidden gem Clay found that other schools overlooked 31:00 Why Clay calls Pittsburgh a dream job and what makes Pitt a special place to playFollow Clay Martin and Pitt Baseball: Twitter/X: @ClayMart_ Instagram: @therealclaymartin Twitter/X (Pitt Baseball): @Pitt_BASECheck Out Patrick's Stuff:•

In this episode, I sit down with Nick Flesher, recruiting coordinator and pitching coach at Milligan University, to talk about what it really takes to get recruited as a pitcher and what college coaches are actually evaluating when they get you on the phone.Nick breaks down how Milligan builds their recruiting classes, why transparency with recruits matters more than selling a dream, and how their unique stackable aid system makes a high-academic school more affordable than most families expect.We also get deep into the development side, why Nick doesn't call pitches during games, how he builds relationships with pitchers before he builds their mechanics, and what he's learned from being wrong in front of his players.This conversation is especially valuable for pitchers, parents, and families trying to understand what coaches are really listening for during that first phone call and what separates the guys who get offers from the ones who don't.Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 0:04 What late May looks like for a coaching staff after the season ends 1:02 Why JUCO guys wait longer to commit and how Milligan operates around that 2:09 How Milligan's recruiting process works across all three coaches 3:35 The stackable aid system and how Milligan makes tuition more affordable 4:41 How late Milligan will go on a recruiting class and why 6:00 FaceTime campus tours and how Nick started using them for out of state recruits 7:22 Nick's personal portal journey from JUCO to Southeastern Louisiana to Tuskegee 8:26 Why Milligan is fully transparent with recruits about roster spots and roles 9:33 What Nick listens for the moment a pitcher picks up the phone 11:00 Why Milligan doesn't call pitches and the thumbs in vs index out philosophy 14:00 How Milligan's catchers are trained to become an extension of the pitching coach 14:57 The pitcher who went from struggling starter to a key contributor and what changed 18:20 What it looks like when Nick admits he was wrong to a pitcher mid-season 19:46 The hardest conversation Nick has had with a player and what he learned from it 22:39 Why getting to know a pitcher as a person comes before developing him as a player 23:10 What Nick attributes Milligan's 40-plus win seasons to over the last several years 24:32 Nick's favorite pitch to teach and why the knuckle ball is his secret dream 26:01 How Nick teaches a seam-shifted changeup to supinator pitchers 27:00 The hardest pitch to improve and what Nick does to fix a dead-zone fastball 28:00 Velocity or command first in recruiting and the minimum velo Nick will consider 29:15 The most underrated trait in a pitcher 29:52 The biggest recruiting red flag Nick sees 31:23 The most unexpected thing Nick has witnessed at a showcase or recruiting tripFollow Milligan Baseball: Twitter/X: @BuffBallMBB Twitter/X (Nick): @CoachFleshCheck Out Patrick's Stuff:•

She sold out. Twice. Wendy is a homeschool mom of six, a former nurse, and a Print School student who launched the Plan Prep Pray Homeschool Mom Planner — an all-in-one planner built for the reality of homeschooling and home management at the same time. Her 2025–2026 planner sold out. Her 2026–2027 planner sold out too. Now she's back with a preorder for her 2027–2028 dated planner and a brand new undated version — because her audience asked for it and she listened. In this episode, she talks about what went into designing a planner that actually works for homeschool moms, what the Kickstarter felt like, and why she's convinced none of it happened by accident.
