Are you doing all the right things — kegels, workouts, even PT — but still dealing with leaking, pressure, or pain? You're not alone, and you're not broken. In this powerful episode of the Pelvic Floor, Core & More podcast, Dr. Des breaks down why your pelvic floor rehab might not be working yet — and what foundational pieces most women skip that make all the difference in healing.

Hey Friends, Decluttering isn't a motivation problem. It's a nervous system problem. In today's episode, we talk about why clutter often shows up as a coping strategy during seasons of overwhelm—and why pressure, shame, and "just trying harder" don't work. You'll learn how avoidance forms, what maladaptive coping looks like in the home, and how to work with your nervous system instead of against it. This episode includes a guided nervous system regulation practice you can use anytime—before decluttering, when you feel overwhelmed, or when you notice yourself avoiding your space.

Friend of the Pod Gigi Leal (RoomforScream) joins us to go through a stacked list of upcoming horror movies and just… scream at each other like horror fans do.We get into things we're excited about, things we're nervous about, and things we're already overthinking way too much—covering titles like Evil Dead Burn from Sébastien Vaniček, Robert Eggers' Werwulf, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple directed by Nia DaCosta, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil, and more. No spoilers, no release date breakdowns, just gut reactions, hopes, fears, and a lot of speculation about what might actually hit.What feels promising? What could completely fall apart? And which movies are we already emotionally attached to despite knowing better?If you like looking ahead at upcoming horror, guessing wildly, and getting cautiously excited about movies we haven't seen yet, this one's for you sooo...COME HANG OUT!!!

Host: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: D' Layne Benson, Registered Nurse and Therapeutic Breathwork FacilitatorIn this episode of The Light Inside, we delve into the concept of "false calm" and its implications for emotional regulation and mental health. Our guest, D' Layne Benson, shares her insights on how over-resourcing and cognitive control can mute adaptive feedback signals, leading to short-term quiet but long-term signal loss.We explore how containment and pacing can build capacity, reduce rupture, and allow coherence to emerge without interpretive intrusion. D' Layne explains that true regulation isn't about feeling better but about staying present with what's activated. We discuss how false calm can keep individuals disconnected and how to recognize it in real-time.D' Layne shares her experiences as a registered nurse and how they led her to explore the role of overfunctioning in high-stress careers like healthcare. She highlights the common trend among caregivers who often neglect their own emotional regulation while focusing on others.We also touch on the concept of functional freeze, where individuals appear composed on the outside but are in a state of internal shutdown. D' Layne provides practical advice on how to notice and address these states, both in oneself and in clients.Throughout the episode, we discuss the importance of relational attunement, the impact of early childhood neural imprints on our perception of safety and threat, and the role of cognitive override in burnout. D' Layne emphasizes the need for scheduling rest and reflection, especially for high-performing individuals who use productivity as a defense against emotional discomfort.Finally, we explore the nuances of breathwork as a tool for emotional regulation and how it can help individuals reconnect with their bodies in a safe and controlled manner. D' Layne shares her personal journey and how breathwork played a crucial role in her own healing process.Join us as we unpack these complex topics and provide actionable insights for better emotional regulation and mental well-being.Timestamps[00:03:48] False calm and emotional bypassing.[00:04:36] False calm in caregiving.[00:09:12] Observing emotional dysregulation patterns.[00:11:25] Nervous system and safety perception.[00:15:07] Autonomic nervous system dynamics.[00:22:11] Busyness as emotional shield.[00:26:00] Scheduling time for reflection.[00:27:25] Building authentic self-worth.[00:30:31] Safety and internal narratives.[00:35:04] Doxaxic reasoning and bias.[00:39:31] Curiosity about personal biases.[00:42:43] Caregiving and self-neglect.[00:45:51] Breath as a diagnostic tool.[00:51:45] Self-healing and awareness.[00:52:13] Rhythmic breathing's healing power.[00:56:20] Sustainable change through repetition.[01:00:20] Value and meaning in care.CreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: D' Layne BensonExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.

Send us a textWhat if the way you spent money during the holidays revealed more about your nervous system than your budget?In this episode, we break down why the holiday season brings stress, guilt, and pressure even when things look fine on the surface. We share what consistently shows up this time of year, how consumer culture hijacks your sense of safety, and why money often becomes the place where deeper emotional patterns surface. This is a grounded conversation about awareness, choice, and doing things differently moving forward.

Your team thinks they’re selling braces. They’re wrong. What patients actually buy is certainty. Certainty about cost, timing, next steps, and whether they’re making the right call for their kid or themselves. When you don’t create that certainty fast, you get the same complaints every practice has: they ghosted us, bad lead, they said they needed to think about it, they price-shopped, they no-showed. Here’s what hurts: your leads aren’t bad. Your process leaks certainty. Fix that, and your team won’t need to push harder. They’ll just need to get clear, confident, and better at leading conversations. The kind of leadership that feels like service instead of sales. Get your copy of the Practice Paradox and the Personality Assessment: https://ion.agency/practice-paradox-book The Core Truth — People Don’t Buy Orthodontics. They Buy Certainty. Whether someone is choosing braces, clear aligners, or even deodorant, the psychology stays the same: people move when they feel safe taking the next step. That’s why calls fall apart even when your team says all the right things. If the prospect feels confused, guarded, uneasy, or overwhelmed, you can keep talking. You’ve already lost. Not because they hate you. Because their brain is protecting them from a decision that feels risky. So the question becomes: How do you manufacture certainty, fast, without sounding salesy? Let’s break it into five levers: mindset, voice, speed, follow-up, and simplification. Redefine “Sales” So Your Team Stops Sabotaging It A lot of practices hate the word “sales.” They picture a used-car lot: fake smile, pressure, manipulation, take the money and run. That’s exactly why they struggle. Here’s the reframe: sales isn’t taking. Sales is giving. If your team believes sales is something you do to people, they’ll avoid it, rush it, or apologize for it. If they believe sales is something you do for people (clarifying, guiding, simplifying), they show up differently. Two guardrails matter: integrity and a true desire to help paired with belief that the service will positively impact the patient’s life. Violate those, and you’re back in the version of sales everyone hates. Hold those two guardrails, and closing isn’t predatory. It’s service. Why this matters to certainty: Certainty doesn’t come from convincing. It comes from leadership. People relax when they feel guided by someone who knows what they’re doing and genuinely has their interests in mind. If your team doesn’t buy that idea, every tactic in this article turns into a script. Scripts don’t create certainty. Free Growth Session Certainty Starts With How You Sound — Tone and Tempo Beat Perfect Wording The fastest way to kill a call isn’t the wrong sentence. It’s the wrong cadence. Two things matter most: tonality and tempo. Tone and tempo communicate what words can’t: calm confidence, leadership, empathy, impatience, uncertainty, awkwardness. The Real Phone Skill Is Emotional Control When your scheduler or treatment coordinator sounds rushed, unsure, or overly chirpy, the prospect doesn’t feel guided. They feel processed. And if the prospect doesn’t feel guided, they don’t feel safe. Use Anchoring Questions to Uncover What Creates Certainty for This Person Three questions shift the call from “schedule this” to “understand why this matters.” “How long have you been thinking about straightening your teeth or bringing Johnny in?” This tells you whether they’re a “yesterday” person or a “two years” person. Very different energy, very different barriers. “Why did you feel like now was a good time to address this?” This reveals the trigger: pain, bullying, a dentist referral, a life event, a deadline, a job, a wedding. The trigger is often where certainty lives. “Why did you decide to come see us?” This exposes perceived differentiation or lack of it. It also surfaces competitive context without you sounding defensive. These questions aren’t cute. They build certainty because they make the prospect feel understood. And they give your team leverage to connect the consult to what the person actually cares about. If You Sense Uncertainty, Address It Immediately If someone sounds uneasy, uncertain, confused, or guarded, you can’t just continue your flow and hope it resolves itself. You need to pivot and handle that emotion right now. Or you won’t have their attention for the rest of the call, and you’ll often earn a no-show. Use something playful as a pattern interrupt (something they don’t expect) to regain attention. The point isn’t the exact line. The point is: certainty requires attention, and attention disappears when emotion turns skeptical. The Underrated Skill — Being Comfortable With Silence Most teams panic during silence and start filling space with nervous checking: “Hello?” “Did you get that?” “Can you hear me?” Don’t do that. Embrace the silence. The person just answered an unexpected call. You don’t know what they’re doing. If you can sit through a few seconds, you keep authority and flow. Why this matters to certainty: When you talk like a leader (steady, calm, unhurried), you lend your certainty to the other person. When you sound nervous, you amplify theirs. Speed Is Strategy: Desire Decays Faster Than You Think If you’re treating online leads like they’re 2012 leads, you’re getting cooked. Amazon has trained consumers. If something doesn’t have the two-day delivery vibe, what do people start thinking? “Do I really need this?” “Maybe I’ll find something similar I can get tomorrow.” That same consumer expectation bleeds into choosing an orthodontist. If you don’t respond fast, if it’s hard to schedule, if it takes forever to get clarity, people don’t wait patiently. They move on or talk themselves out of it. The Five-Minute Rule Isn’t Aggressive. It’s Reality. Studies show that if you don’t follow up within five minutes, there’s a 400 percent decrease in ever getting in touch. Calling back within 60 seconds can boost conversions by 391 percent. Whether you obsess over exact numbers or not, the operational takeaway is undeniable: your speed determines whether you’re still top of mind. Here’s what should sting a little: five minutes should be your worst day. Because in a digital world, five minutes can feel like an hour. Nobody submits a form and then sits there doing nothing, waiting for your office to call. They go right back to scrolling, eating dinner, getting pulled into life. And when you finally call, you’re no longer “the answer.” You’re “some unknown number.” Certainty Collapses When You’re Not Top of Mind When your callback is slow, you trigger confusion: “Who is this?” “Where are you calling from?” “Why are you calling me?” That confusion isn’t neutral. Confusion is uncertainty. Uncertainty is delay. Delay becomes ghosting. If you want more conversions, stop treating speed like an operational detail. Speed is part of your sales system. “Bad Leads” Are Often Just Cold Opportunities, and Your Follow-Up Must Match Human Behavior Most practices overuse the term “bad lead” as emotional protection. It feels better to say “they were a bad lead” than “we didn’t create enough certainty fast enough.” Here’s the reframe: a bad lead is someone you truly can’t serve. Someone without teeth, no pulse, extreme mismatch. Everything else? That’s not a bad lead. That’s an opportunity that either isn’t ready yet, lost excitement, didn’t feel safe, or didn’t get enough follow-up to stay warm. It’s not always that the leads are bad. It’s that the opportunities have gone cold. The Simplest Reason Follow-Up Fails — Nobody Answers Unknown Numbers (Including You) Most of us do not pick up calls from numbers we don’t know. So why is your team shocked when prospects don’t answer? This is why you need a specific cadence: call, voicemail, text, email, repeat. That multi-touch pattern creates recognition: “Oh right, I did request that.” It builds association. And it reduces the emotional friction of picking up. Micro-Impressions Before the Consult Decide Whether They Show Up This might be the most overlooked certainty killer in orthodontics: the little irritations that happen before the patient ever meets the doctor. Being put on hold for minutes (feels like forever). The office not answering. Getting disconnected and not being asked for a callback number. Having to call back and re-enter the queue. These micro-impressions create a subtle story in the patient’s mind: “This is going to be a pain.” That story produces uncertainty. Bottom line: If your front-end experience feels clunky, you can’t treatment-coordinate your way out of it in the consult. Free Growth Session Create Certainty in the Consult by Simplifying the Process and the Money Conversation If you want more same-day starts, stop turning the consult into a college lecture. Here’s a real-world example of a practice that aggressively simplified the consult process: 30 minutes total per new patient exam, records done fast (an eight-minute window), doctor in the room for one to two minutes, treatment coordinator does most of the explanation and fee conversation, they deliberately trained and timed the team to move faster, and fee presentation is simple and consistent. The insight isn’t “everyone must do 30-minute exams.” The insight is: complexity creates hesitation. When the doctor spends 20 minutes explaining the science of orthodontics, the patient walks out thinking, “Wow, this is a big deal. I need to go home and digest this.” In other words: you made it feel heavy, risky, and uncertain. Simplification doesn’t mean low quality. It means low friction. Fees — Answer the Real Question Without Overwhelming Them The patient’s number one question at the consult is: “How much is it?” When offices avoid this, they don’t create certainty. They create suspense. And suspense is not your friend in a high-consideration purchase. One practice’s approach: Lead with one simple plan ($300 down and a monthly that stays under $200). Don’t lead with four options. Options create overwhelm. If they ask about pay-in-full, then you introduce that. If $300 today is a barrier, step it down: $150 today and draft the other $150 in one to two weeks. This strategy isn’t about discounting. It’s about making the decision feel manageable. On the Phone — If You Won’t Quote Fees, You Still Must Remove Financing Fear When people hear “payment plans” and “financing,” they often assume interest, credit checks, banks, and paying more over time. So if your team says, “We have great payment plans,” that’s not certainty. That’s vague reassurance. And vague reassurance reads like sales fluff. Instead, proactively clarify: zero percent interest, no credit checks, in-house financing, no banks involved. That removes uncertainty. And when uncertainty drops, people move forward. Stop Trying to Differentiate With Tech Patients Don’t Understand Some practices try to win by talking about technology (CBCT, bonding techniques, fancy bracket systems) as the primary differentiator. The general public has low dental IQ. Most people don’t know what those things are, and they aren’t buying them up front. What are disruptors winning on? Speed, convenience, little resistance, affordability, and a cool brand. You can wow them clinically once they’re in and committed. But at the decision point, patients buy what reduces friction and uncertainty. Practical Takeaways — A Certainty-First Playbook You Can Implement Now You don’t need a new script. You need a new operating system. Here’s a practical checklist, organized by where certainty is won or lost. Phone: Create Certainty in the First 60 Seconds Train the two T’s: tonality and tempo. Start coaching cadence, not just words. Add the three anchoring questions: How long have you been thinking about it? Why now? Why us? The moment you hear uncertainty, pivot and address it. Don’t keep going like nothing happened. Get comfortable with silence. Nervous filler kills authority. Scheduling —Stop the Endless Loop With Wide Net Statements Replace open-ended scheduling chaos with two-option narrowing. “Specific date or day or first available?” “Morning or afternoon?” “1 p.m. or 3 p.m.?” This approach prevents the call from dragging and keeps you leading. Speed — Protect Momentum Like It’s Revenue (Because It Is) Treat five minutes as unacceptable in normal conditions. Aim to call back before they exit the browser whenever possible. Build operational systems that make fast response normal, not heroic. Follow-Up — Assume They Won’t Answer and Build Recognition Anyway Use the cadence: call, voicemail, text, email, repeat. Stop labeling unresponsive people as “bad.” Most are just cold. Clean up micro-impressions: reduce holds, avoid disconnects without callback capture, and tighten the front desk experience. Consult — Simplify Until Decisions Feel Easy Reduce information overload. Don’t make treatment feel like a complicated life event. Standardize a simple fee presentation. Lead with one clear path. Introduce alternatives only if asked. Remove financing uncertainty with clear language (zero percent interest, in-house, no banks, no credit checks). If You Fix Certainty, You Fix Conversion Your practice isn’t competing only on clinical outcomes anymore. You’re competing on how fast you respond, how easy it is to schedule, how confident your team sounds, how predictable your process feels, and whether the patient understands the money without anxiety. People don’t buy braces. They buy certainty. If you want more starts without feeling salesy, stop trying to close harder. Start building a system that makes the next step feel obvious, safe, and simple. That’s what your market is actually demanding now. Free Growth Session The post Patients Keep Saying No?

Summary In this conversation, Ali Damron and Morgana Lakatos Hayward discuss the complexities of perimenopause and menopause, focusing on the hormonal changes that affect women's health, weight loss, and overall well-being. They explore the inadequacies of traditional dieting methods, the importance of understanding women's unique biological needs, and the role of stress and nervous system regulation in health. The discussion also covers the significance of intuitive eating, self-trust, and the challenges faced by women in the sandwich generation. Morgana shares insights from her 60-Day Shed program, emphasizing a holistic approach to health and wellness. Takeaways Many traditional weight loss methods are based on male biology. Cortisol spikes can lead to hormonal imbalances and weight gain. Fasting may not be suitable for all women, especially during hormonal fluctuations. Chronic dieting can lead to a negative relationship with food. Nervous system regulation is crucial for managing stress and health. Building self-trust is essential for successful intuitive eating. Women in the sandwich generation face unique stressors and challenges. Perimenopause can be reframed as a positive transition phase. HRT and supplements should complement a solid lifestyle foundation. Creating a sustainable lifestyle involves understanding individual needs and preferences.

Click here to send me a quick message :) What is arousal and how is it related to your vagus nerve, past trauma or feeling unsafe, your stress levels, or even your body just being built differently?In today's medley episode we explore all of these concepts. In this liminal time out of time that is "holiday season" there is often an overstimulation happening, but also an invitation to slow down. I heard recently that this time of the year is when a large percentage of babies are conceived and I wonder how much that relates to this reflective inner quieting that allows the rest of life to sort of fall away and couples to feel more connected, and perhaps a little more in their pleasure bodies, than in other times of the year.Maybe we can get a little curious about what contributes to this? How does taking time off of work, rest and reflection, the invitation to celebrate and feel hopeful impact our nervous systems and our capacity for pleasure?Just some meandering questions for you to ponder with me if you'd like. But if you want to get a little nerdy with me - learn about the vagus nerve, the organ that is your cervix and what pleasure potential lies there, and som reflective perspectives from occupational therapist Laura Rowan on what might be getting in the way of or enhancing your pleasure, this episode is perfect for you.Resources:Free classsss Jan 13th!

In this episode, we break down the pursuer–withdrawer dynamic and why partners so often misunderstand each other during conflict. We explore how our nervous systems, personal histories, and internal stories shape the meaning we make of our partner's behavior. By slowing down and getting curious, couples can interrupt the cycle and create more connection instead of escalating disconnection. Main Talking Points • Pursuer vs. withdrawer • Meaning-making stories • Nervous system responses • Projection in conflict • Windows of tolerance • Curiosity over certainty Check Out Relationship Academy Give Me Discounts!

Beautiful soul, this episode is for anyone feeling mentally scattered, emotionally tired, or disconnected from their intuition. Julie is joined by Zelana Montminy for a grounded, compassionate conversation about focus not as productivity or discipline, but as presence, nervous system safety, and spiritual alignment. Together, they explore how constant stimulation, digital overload, and cultural pressure pull us away from our inner knowing, and why slowing down is often the fastest way back to clarity. This episode gently reframes rest as spiritual medicine, focus as a gateway to intuition, and boundaries as acts of self-trust. It's especially supportive for mothers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating burnout, ADHD, hormonal shifts, or major life transitions.
