A biochemist accidentally became a pioneer in trauma-clearing therapy—and it all started when she couldn't figure out her own dating life.Dr. Judith Swack was told repeatedly by mentors that she had a "research mind" and belonged in a lab, leading her to earn a PhD in biochemistry and neurochemistry. However, personal struggles in her dating life introduced her to Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) and the power of the unconscious mind. After an insistent social worker pushed her to expand her focus beyond simple phobias, Dr. Judith mapped the biological structure of trauma, identifying it as the hidden root of most physical and emotional struggles.Key Takeaways:(1) Trauma is a physical reflex, not just a mental state.(2) Tapping activates the body's natural "off switch".(3) True healing addresses root causes rather than identities.Pick up a copy of Dr. Judith Swack's book, "Clear Trauma Now" (available in paperback and eBook on Amazon) and visit https://hblu.org to claim a free consultation or register for her upcoming live trauma-healing webinar series!

Victoria Taft ("your news sherpa") delivers a hard-hitting edition of The Adult in the Room: FBI Biden Cover-Up Scandal: New records expose how the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF) allegedly ran shadow operations to protect the Biden family's Ukraine financial ties while dismissing legitimate corruption evidence as "disinformation". Seattle's "Transfugee" Funding: Victoria breaks down Seattle's decision to allocate $300,000 in taxpayer funds to attract trans individuals as a "trans sanctuary" city—all while local police departments face critical staffing shortages. Massachusetts Abortion Legislation: Victoria reacts to Massachusetts passing late-term abortion laws by highlighting the importance of newborn care and donating cribs to crisis pregnancy shelters. Hot Book Summer Feature (Nils Grevillius): Former Army counterintelligence agent, Pinkerton, and veteran L.A. private investigator Nils Grevillius joins the show to discuss his memoir, The Last Lawman: True Stories of a Private Detective (featuring a foreword by Kurt Schlichter).

Mental performance coach Stacy Ingram reveals why teen athletes with the most talent still hit a wall when they haven't trained the mental side. Talent gets an athlete to the starting line, but mental toughness is what decides who's still standing at the finish. Dr. Andrew Fix sits down with Stacy, founder of Catalyst Mental Performance, to explore why so many young athletes build their entire mindset around results and what happens when injury, a slump, or the end of a season pulls that identity out from under them. Ingram breaks down her IGNITE framework and explains why the difference between coaching and therapy matters more than most people realize. She and Fix dig into a question worth sitting with: what actually happens in your brain and body when the pressure is highest, and are you training for that moment or just hoping to survive it? From free throw lines to final exams to high pressure moments at work, the conversation makes a compelling case that nervous system regulation and self-talk are skills, not personality traits. Ingram also gets honest about the gap between wanting to change and being ready to do the work, and what parents and coaches can do to spot the difference. Whether you coach athletes, raise one, or just want to perform better under your own version of pressure, this episode offers a practical look at what separates those who thrive under pressure from those who crumble. Quotes "Without the sport or like a big job you might have had or a career, if you don't know who you are as a person, you take that away and all of a sudden you have this huge gap of confidence because what made you you, at least in your mind, is gone." (12:54 | Stacy Ingram) "Therapy is really all about sort of how did you get here and looking a little bit more backwards, where coaching is all about how do like you're here, no matter how you got here, how do we move you forward?" (20:01 | Stacy Ingram) "We often aren't playing our best game when we're only focused on the score. And again, it doesn't mean we don't always want to win. Of course we want to win. But we want to do the things that give us the best chance." (34:37 | Stacy Ingram) "If you do nothing or implement nothing I teach you, nothing will change." (49:36 | Stacy Ingram) "Being intentional about our actions and our life instead of just letting things happen to us, kind of guiding that path and how we do that ourselves intentionally versus letting other people pick and choose it for us."

What I Discussed With Pauline Ryeland...- Why the brain turns your libido down on purpose, and what it thinks it's protecting you from- The one thing men do on the sofa every night that women were taught never to do- What Pauline said to a man in his early thirties who was booked in for his third Peyronie's operation- The trauma technique that cleared decades of her own dental trauma after EMDR did nothing- Where painful sex after menopause comes from, and what she reaches for before anyone mentions surgery- The client whose daily panic attacks stopped after a single session- Why I ended up shaking uncontrollably on a hypnotherapist's sofa, and what lifted afterwards- The thing Pauline wants every woman doing from perimenopause onwards, and almost nobody isChapters00:00 – Introduction & Sponsor Spotlight (OhMiBod)00:26 – Episode Preview: Unlocking Midlife Passion & Somatic Sexology with Pauline Ryeland01:30 – From Personal Healing to Intimacy Coaching: Pauline's Journey03:15 – Breaking the Silence: Why Seniors Are Reclaiming Their Sexual Wellbeing05:40 – Somatic Sexology Explained: How Your Body Holds the Key to Pleasure08:12 – Overcoming Midlife Libido Blockers & Emotional Disconnect11:05 – Midlife Intimacy Guide (GITM Playbook Sponsor)12:10 – Tantra & Sensual Touch: Redefining Intimacy Beyond Performance15:45 – The Power of Pelvic Floor Awareness & Sacred Energy19:20 – Navigating Body Image Changes and Self-Confidence After 5022:50 – Simple Micro-Habits to Ignite Connection with Your Partner Today26:15 – Vulnerability in Midlife Dating & Long-Term Relationships29:40 – Closing Words: Why Desire Has No Expiration DateShow NotesMost women over 50 assume their libido went quiet because of their age. Pauline Ryeland says the brain switched it off deliberately, and she can usually tell you why.In this episode I'm joined by Pauline Ryeland, a sexological bodyworker, tantra teacher and trauma specialist based in Queensland, Australia. She trained in NLP, hypnotherapy and the Havening technique, and calls herself a libido expert because that's what almost everyone arrives at her door with.Pauline works hands-on with things most practitioners won't touch. Vaginal pain that women have been told to put up with. Peyronie's disease when urologists have run out of ideas beyond surgery. Sexual trauma that has been sitting in the body for decades.She also told me about her own dental trauma, which EMDR couldn't shift and Havening cleared, and about the client who had ruled out having a baby because of daily panic attacks. I shared something from my own experience with hypnotherapy that I hadn't planned to.Then there's the homework. It costs nothing, needs no partner, and most women have never once tried it. Men have been doing it on sofas for decades without giving it a second thought.If your libido has gone quiet, this episode is proof it doesn't have to stay that way.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Your libido didn't fail. If sex has hurt, the brain turns desire down to keep you away from the pain, and it doesn't turn back up on its own.- Havening is touch-based and gentle. You stroke your own arms while you talk, and score the memory out of ten as you go.- Pauline scored her childhood dental trauma at 10. Afterwards she could feel her brain hunting for it and coming back empty.- Vaginal pain is treatable. Pauline maps the whole area on a 0 to 10 scale, never pushing past a 4, and pain usually halves by the next session.- Castor oil builds elasticity and collagen in the vaginal wall. She wants women using it weekly from perimenopause, not after sex has become painful.- Peyronie's disease is not only an older man's condition, and surgery is not the only route. One client cancelled his third operation.- Nothing sticks in under 28 days. Miss a day of the practice and you start again. Most clients need five to eight sessions, a fortnight apart.- Sit with a hand down your pants and do nothing with it. No touching, no goal. It rebuilds the pathway between brain, heart and genitals, which for most of us are living in separate post codes.About the GuestPauline Ryeland, Intimacy Whisperer ® works as an Intimacy, Sex & Libido Coach & Educator.

Leadership begins with understanding. If you can't understand people, you can't truly influence them, develop them, or lead them. On this episode of Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black explains why understanding is the front door of the People Business. Whether you're leading a company, raising a family, strengthening a marriage, or serving your community, your success will always be connected to your ability to understand how people think, communicate, and grow. Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, sociology, theology, and decades of leadership experience, this episode brings together powerful ideas that reveal how people are formed—and how they can be transformed. You'll discover: Why relationships drive nearly every meaningful outcome How repetition, observation, and attachment shape identity What Hebb's Law, Social Learning Theory, Mimetic Theory, and Attachment Theory teach us about human behavior Why lasting change always begins with understanding, not control Mr. Black also explores practical tools from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Emotional Intelligence, including: The three primary communication filters: Deletion, Distortion, and Generalization The three perceptual positions that help leaders see beyond their own perspective How people process the world through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic communication styles Why changing perspective often changes the outcome Most importantly, this episode reminds us that people are more than behavior. We are body, mind, and spirit. Great leaders don't simply manage performance—they understand the whole person. They help reshape beliefs, build trust, strengthen identity, and create environments where people can flourish. Because when you understand how people are formed, you begin to understand how people can be transformed. This is an Hour of Power about communication, emotional intelligence, leadership, and unlocking the greatest investment you'll ever make: people. Inspiration. Education. Application. When you live your life like it matters… it does.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What does it take to go almost 20 years in real estate without a single broke month? In this episode, Erin sits down with Dan Rochon — real estate veteran, founder of the Consistent and Predictable Income (CPI) Community, host of the No Broke Months podcast, and author of the new book Teach to Sell: Why Top Performers Never Sell — And What They Do Instead. Dan's story starts on his bathroom floor in 2005, the morning he got sober after nearly two decades of struggle. Two years later, a friend's question — "You ever think about real estate sales?" — set him on a path from waiting tables in D.C. to buying the Keller Williams brokerage he worked for, and to a track record most agents only dream of: no broke months since 2008. The best part? Dan insists there's no magic to it. He walks us through the exact framework: waking up every morning "unemployed," spending 1–3 hours a day finding business no matter how busy you get, the 11 activities that actually make you money, and his Teach to Sell method — guiding clients through predictable problems before they happen so you become trusted, wanted, and referred instead of chasing and convincing. If you're tired of the feast-or-famine rollercoaster, this conversation is your way off. Listen in as Erin and Dan discuss: Dan's rock-bottom morning in 2005, getting sober, and discovering real estate as his path to entrepreneurship Why he leaned into the 2008 crash — and how "there's always a reason to look at the suck" The 5 daily activities in your business, the 5 on your business, plus the one habit Dan never skips: visiting his money every morning How to break the feast-or-famine cycle: 1–3 hours a day, 5 days a week, no matter what The four pillars of a business owner — belief, finding business, leverage, and leadership What Teach to Sell really means: consulting clients through predictable problems before they happen (including the home inspection story every agent needs to hear) Why "the circumstances change, the technology changes, but the fundamentals never do" Where to grab Teach to Sell and unlock the four-pillar bonus course (formerly a $10,000 program) About Dan Rochon is on a mission to help 1,000,000 people sell without selling by teaching them how to think through Teach to Sell. Founder of the Consistent and Predictable Income (CPI) Community and host of the No Broke Months for Salespeople podcast, Dan is a master of human behavior, influence, and the psychology of success, and a certified practitioner of Humanistic Neurolinguistic Psychology and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). Dan doesn't just teach theory — he lives it. Since 2008, he has maintained a flawless track record of No Broke Months in real estate sales, averaging ten sales a month, all while building and selling a Keller Williams brokerage he led as operating partner for a decade. He is the author of Teach to Sell: Why Top Performers Never Sell — And What They Do Instead and Real Estate Evolution: The Ten-Step Guide to CPI. A TEDx and keynote speaker, his expertise has been featured on The Nightly News with Brian Williams, The Today Show, CNBC, and The Washington Post.

Our guest this episode of Thriving Matters Podcast is Sonya Furlong, founder of the Centre for Life Therapies. You will be interested to look up The Centre for Life Therapies as it continues to grow as Australia's number one Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) sanctuary for mental well-being, personal development and a powerhouse for transformative change. Listen in as Sonya explains how NLP emerged from the human potential movement in the early 1970s, with Richard Bandler and John Grinder studying pioneers like Milton Erickson to develop structured techniques for personal transformation. They discussed the importance of understanding subconscious values and beliefs in achieving goals, with Sonya emphasizing that many people set goals with only 5% of their wisdom and often fail to achieve fulfillment because their goals aren't aligned with their true values. Our conversation covered practical applications for leaders, including communication mastery courses and corporate workshops on meditation and breathwork, while addressing how personal development directly correlates with leadership effectiveness. Sonya explained how her personal experience with traditional therapy led her to seek out NLP coaches, which significantly transformed her life and inspired her to become a coach herself. Carrie and Sonya also discussed the Center for Life Therapies, which focuses on setting achievable goals, communication, coaching, and mentoring to help managers and team leaders understand their colleagues better. They explored the importance of understanding the subconscious mind, which makes up 95% of the human mind according to Freud, and how unconscious values can impact behavior. Sonya explained that NLP techniques help bring these values into conscious awareness, aligning goals with one's true values and North Star.

You sit down on Sunday night and promise yourself that this is the week. You'll journal every trade. You'll wait for your setups. You'll follow the plan. And by Wednesday, it's quietly gone — and you're calling yourself lazy and undisciplined all over again. It was never about willpower. In this episode I ask a harder question: did you ever actually want the work, or did you only want what the work was supposed to give you? Wishing and wanting feel like the same thing from where you're standing, and trading is uniquely good at hiding the difference. No boss. No hours. No one watching. And a scoreboard that lies to you in the short term. We talk about why following through is so much harder in this profession than in any other, why being hard on yourself has never once changed your behavior, and what actually rewires the way you respond at the screen. You'll also leave with one practical change you can make this week — something that gives you a way to win on the days the market gives you nothing. Next week: what it really means to keep your word to yourself.

In this episode, we chat with Andrea Maxim, a licensed naturopathic doctor turned master mindset coach, to explore the missing piece of the wellness puzzle: the subconscious mind.Andrea shares her personal and professional journey shifting from strictly physical treatments to utilizing Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnotherapy. We dive deep into why high-achieving women experience emotional eating and stay stuck in a cycle of "protective weight," the four core limiting beliefs that drive our daily behaviors, and how a simple 30-second pause can dismantle self-sabotage.Key Takeaways & TimestampsThe Missing Piece of the Puzzle: Andrea discusses her transition from a traditional brick-and-mortar naturopathic practice to mindset coaching after realizing that physical protocols alone weren't yielding long-term results for her clients.Conscious vs. Unconscious Mind: Understanding how our subconscious controls our day-to-day choices, fears, and limiting beliefs, and why logic often fails to fix a habits problem.Trapped Energy and Neuroplasticity: A look at how past experiences (especially from ages 0–7) leave energetic imprints, and how tools like NLP neutralize those emotional triggers without requiring years of traditional therapy.The 4 Core Limiting Beliefs: Andrea breaks down the four deepest wounds women carry (I'm not good enough, I am powerless, I'm unworthy, and I'm unsafe/alone) and how they manifest as overcompensating or staying small.The Concept of "Secondary Gain": Why we often choose to stay stuck in a problem because the comfort of the cocoon outweighs the temporary discomfort of growth.What Women Need to Soften: A conversation on the core biological needs of safety, protection, and support, and how over-activating masculine energy leads to hypervigilance and burnout.Identity Shifting & Micro-Movements: Practical steps for shifting from an "away from pain" mindset to a "towards health" identity, using visual cues, gratitude, and the power of the 30-second pauseResources Mentioned in This EpisodeAtomic Habits by James ClearThe Four Tendencies by Gretchen RubinConnect with Andrea MaximInstagram: @themmaximmovement (Note the two 'm's in the middle!)Join the conversation: Come hang out with us in the Living the Good Life Facebook community for:Episode previewsBonus contentGuest Q&A opportunitiesA community of people choosing to live with more intention and joyJoin the Living the Good Life FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LTGLCommunityEvery episode proudly sponsored by http://SwitchtoUSAMade.comContact Kimberly Henrie at https://livingthegoodlife.us/If this episode resonated with you, take a moment to leave a review or share it with someone who might need a little nudge toward their own version of the good life.
You sit down to trade and watch yourself do the same thing again — hesitate on a clean setup, cut a winner short, grind long past the point of usefulness — and afterward you call it a discipline problem and promise to try harder tomorrow. But what if it was never a bad habit at all? In this episode of the Confidence in Trading Podcast, Agnieszka Wood opens a new arc on the Trader's Identity: the behaviors sabotaging your trading are really identities you built long ago to survive something difficult — and they quietly run you now, while you're trying to trade. You'll learn what a “stuck identity” actually is, where these identities come from (and why they were never a flaw), and why trading is the one place they reliably take the chair. Agnieszka introduces three that show up again and again — the Perfectionist, who can't allow itself to be wrong; the Hard Worker, who believes more effort is always the answer; and the Victim, who stays braced and carries it all alone — and shows why the first move is never to fight the behavior, but to recognize the identity underneath it. This is the heart of her Compassionate Discipline™ approach. If the calm, clear trader you are in the morning isn't the one who shows up when it counts, this episode will help you see why — and what to do instead of forcing. Each of these three identities gets its own deep dive on the blog in the weeks ahead. To get them as they come out, join the free newsletter at aheadcoach.com.

There's a particular kind of trader Agnieszka Wood keeps meeting, and for years she was that trader herself. This is someone who has done the work — taken the courses, read the books, and can explain risk management so clearly you'd assume they taught it for a living — and who then sits down at their own screen and exits a winner too early out of fear, or breaks the exact rule they reviewed in their journal that very morning. The knowledge is genuinely there, which is what makes the question that follows so confusing: I know better than this, so why did I just do that? In Episode 82, Agnieszka sits inside that gap between knowing and doing, and looks at why reaching for the old high-achiever's move — learn more, study harder, add more rules — never seems to close it. Drawing on her own years in NLP and performance psychology, and on what she's watched genuinely change the traders she works with, she explores why what a trader knows and what a trader does under pressure are run by two very different parts of them, and why the real shift happens in a place most traders have never been told to look. It's a grounded, compassionate episode for anyone who has ever known exactly what to do at the desk and watched themselves do the opposite anyway.

The urge to make a loss back is one of the most misunderstood experiences in trading. On the surface it looks like a discipline problem — a moment to grit through, an impulse to suppress, another rule to add to the list. But the traders Agnieszka Wood works with have usually tried all of that, and they know how quickly it stops working when the next red number lands. In Episode 81, Agnieszka walks listeners into the specific texture of the moment right after a losing trade — the tightening in the chest, the narrowing focus, the sense that there's a window closing — and shares her own years of sitting at the screen after a loss, unable to walk away, telling herself she just needed one more trade. She unpacks what's actually driving that urge, why identity and self-worth get quietly attached to the day's P&L, and how the Compassionate Discipline™ approach — built around Pause, Name, Choose — creates the space for a different kind of choice. The naming step alone, when it's specific enough, changes what's possible in the next minute. If the cycle of trying to fix a losing day with another trade is one you recognize, this is an episode worth listening to slowly. Press play when you have fifteen quiet minutes.

This episode explores a side of trading that rarely gets talked about — the emotional and psychological cost of growth. Most traders believe the hardest part of the journey is learning how to make money. But what many discover along the way is that becoming successful in trading can also create pressure, isolation, identity shifts, and emotional distance from the people and environments that once felt familiar. In this conversation, Agnieszka explores why growth can feel emotionally uncomfortable, how the brain naturally seeks familiarity and belonging, and why traders often unconsciously pull themselves back into old patterns when progress starts happening. This episode is not just about trading psychology. It's about what happens internally when your goals, mindset, and identity begin to change.

In this episode, Agnieszka Wood takes a deeper look at why traders either exit trades too early or give profits back. She explains why this isn't an issue with strategy or execution, but a reaction to the pressure that shows up when a trade is in profit. You'll learn the three common patterns that directly impact your trading decisions and lead to frustration, second-guessing, and inconsistent results. Agnieszka also introduces the often overlooked skill of profitability—the skill that matters most if you want to succeed in trading, but one that most traders never actually develop. This episode will help you recognize what's really driving your exits and start approaching your trading decisions from a completely different perspective, so you can stop repeating the cycle of making money… and then losing it.

What if change didn't take years, but minutes?In this episode, Sagi Chekroun shares how Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) can help you create rapid, lasting transformation by working directly with the unconscious mind—the true driver of your habits, emotions, and results.Most people try to change through willpower, discipline, or information. But real change doesn't happen at the surface—it happens beneath it. When you understand how your mind actually stores patterns, you can begin to shift them faster than you thought possible.We break down why change often feels difficult, and challenge the belief that transformation has to be slow. You've already created habits, fears, and emotional patterns instantly. The same mechanism can be used to rewire them.One of the most powerful ideas discussed is secondary gain—the hidden benefit behind every habit. Whether it's stress relief, comfort, or a sense of control, your mind holds onto patterns because they serve you in some way. If you try to eliminate a habit without replacing what it gives you, it often comes back in another form. Real change comes from upgrading the benefit, not fighting the behavior.We also explore the mindset shift of “10X is easier than 2X”—why aiming for bigger transformation can actually be simpler than incremental change, because it forces you to think differently and step into a new identity.From there, we get practical.You'll learn simple NLP tools you can start using immediately:How to “scramble” negative memories by changing how they're stored (visual, auditory, and physical components)How to use dissociation to safely process intense experiences without reliving themHow to create a mental “control panel” to interact with your inner worldHow to build anchors—physical triggers that instantly shift your emotional stateHe also guides me through a powerful 3-minute future pacing exercise. This practice helps you step into your future self—seeing through their eyes, feeling their emotions, and allowing your mind to begin wiring in the path to get there. Instead of chasing a goal, you begin to embody it.A key theme throughout the episode is that less is more. You don't need long, complicated routines. Short, consistent practices—just a few minutes a day—can create real, lasting change when done correctly.This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, wants to break patterns, or is looking for a more aligned, effective way to grow—mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.Resources mentioned include Richard Bandler, Paul McKenna, and Jose Silva, along with additional NLP tools and teachings.Take 3 minutes today to try it yourself:Visualize your life one year from now. Step into that version of you. Feel it fully.Then ask: Who do I need to become to live this?Because real change doesn't come from forcing yourself forward. It comes from becoming someone new.
Being successful is about more than having good ideas. It's about being able to turn those ideas into reality, and having the internal cooperations and congruency to be able to move the ideas toward success no matter what.An entrepreneur must be at their best at every minute of every hour of every day. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) helps us subconsciously take better control of our business and lives.NLP:Helps us manage our thoughts and our feelings.Assists in our ability to communicate effectively.Helps to build confidence.Key Takeaways:Have a program for successHave an unwavering focus.Have an arsenal of tools available to help you reach success.

In this episode, Agnieszka takes a deeper look at why traders struggle with consistency. She explains the exact reasons why inconsistency isn't a discipline problem and breaks down how traders lose control under pressure, why they get stuck, and why trying harder only reinforces the cycle of starting over. She also explores the adrenaline driven discipline that many traders rely on to perform. You'll also learn the key reason why the mindset tools are not effective the way most traders are using them. This episode will help you approach discipline from a completely new perspective, so you can finally start building consistency in your trading without all the extra pressure.

The Mind of a Voiceover Legend: Spike Spencer Voiceover Mindset and Performance BOSSes, Anne Ganguzza welcomes Spike Spencer, a veteran whose voice has defined iconic series like Evangelion, Pokemon, and World of Warcraft. But Spike isn't just an actor; he's a certified Master NLP Coach who understands that the "pipes" are only a tool—the real engine is the subconscious. This episode dives into the practical application of Neuro-Linguistic Programming in the booth, the evolution of the anime industry over 30 years, and how to "anchor" yourself into a winning state before you even hit record. Chapter Summaries: 30 Years of Anime: From VHS to Instantaneous (10:58) Spike reflects on the technological shift in the industry. Thirty years ago, dubbing involved recording to VHS tapes and mailing them to Japan for feedback. Today, it's instantaneous and script-free. He notes that the speed of modern gaming and anime sessions requires actors to rely solely on instinct and advanced cold-reading skills. NLP 101 for Actors: Subconscious Listening (23:29) Spike explains Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) as the "study of excellence." He emphasizes that your subconscious is always listening to your internal dialogue. If you tell yourself "I hope I get this," you are operating from a state of lack. He discusses how to shift into a "paid voice actor" identity by simply asking for a $10 "lunch fee" for freebies to trigger a mental state change. The Power of Anchoring (25:38) To improve your voiceover mindset and performance, Spike suggests "anchoring"—associating a physical action or sensation with a specific mental state. He shares techniques like touching a specific part of your booth doorway or using a physical gesture (like pinching an ear) during a moment of high energy to "program" your brain to enter that state whenever the gesture is repeated. The "Matador Walk" and Audition Recovery (32:13) Drawing parallels from professional tennis, Spike discusses the importance of the "recovery state." After an audition—good or bad—actors must "shake it off" physically and mentally to enter the next read with fresh energy. He notes that animals (and microphones) are incredibly sensitive to manic or nervous energy, making mindfulness a prerequisite for a clean take. Manifestation and "Stair-Stepping" Goals (40:30) Affirmations often fail because the subconscious rejects them as lies (e.g., "I am a millionaire"). Spike teaches "stair-stepping": setting goals that are realistic enough for the subconscious to believe. He also introduces the concept of anchoring the achievement of a goal by visualizing the feeling 15 minutes after the success has occurred. Homesteading and Fatherhood (53:30) Beyond the booth, Spike discusses his life in the Texas Hill Country, where he gardens, homeschools his kids, and manages a homestead with donkeys and chickens. He argues that this "Dad energy" and grounding in nature provide the creative fuel necessary to sustain a decades-long career without burning out. Top 10 Takeaways for Voice Actors: Master Cold Reading: In modern anime and gaming, you won't see the script ahead of time. Acting classes and daily reading practice are essential. Your Subconscious is the Captain: It believes whatever you tell it without judgment. Speak to yourself as a successful professional. Use Physical Anchors: Create a "booth ritual" (a touch, a scent, or a specific song) to instantly trigger a high-performance state. The "First and Last Take" Rule: Avoid overthinking. Usually, your first read is the freshest, and your last read is the most refined. Stop there and move on. Identify as a Pro: If you haven't been paid, do a small job for a nominal fee ($10). Once money changes hands, you are a "paid voice actor" in the eyes of your subconscious. The Energy is Audible: Microphones pick up tension. If you are nervous, the listener will hear it. Use breathing and movement to ground yourself. Recover Like a Matador: After every audition, do a physical "reset" to let go of the previous performance and clear the slate for the next one. Stair-Step Your Affirmations: Don't claim "I am the world's best actor" if you don't believe it. Start with "I am a working actor who is improving every day." Make Your Booth a Sanctuary: If you feel like someone is listening through the walls, your acting will be restrained. Ensure your space feels private and safe. Perform Everywhere: Whether you're cooking on camera or reading to your kids, keep your creative energy flowing to prevent stagnation in the booth.

Over the last 7 years of coaching traders, one thing has been consistent: The situation changes… but the pattern comes back. In trading. In business. In life. In this episode, Agnieszka shares how the patterns she had already worked through as a trader showed up again while building her company — and how approaching them differently allowed her to expand even further. From being okay with uncertainty and making decisions without knowing if they would work… to shifting away from pushing harder for results and trusting the process… to holding boundaries, trusting her decisions, and no longer letting others influence how she feels about herself. Trading didn't just reveal these patterns once. It continues to bring them back—at a different level. Because this work is never done. It just deepens. And that's what allows you to become a better trader over time.

In this episode, I explore why so many traders feel pressure to make trading work—and how that pressure changes the way they think, act, and make decisions. We look at the difference between trying to prove something and actually becoming a trader, and why this shift is essential if you want to build consistency. This is not about your strategy. It's about how you show up to the process.

In this conversation, Adam Cox and Dale Turnbull explore the journey into hypnosis, the impact of NLP, and the significance of metaphors in personal development and therapy. They discuss how personal metaphors shape our understanding of life and the challenges of change. The dialogue delves into the concept of life as a game, the implications of simulation theory, and the metaphorical perspective on mental health. Dale shares insights from his experiences and upcoming workshops, emphasizing the importance of context in therapy and the power of metaphors in facilitating change.About Dale in his own wordsMetaphors of Movement operates within the realm of autogenic metaphor that is, metaphor generated naturally and internally by the client. All the metaphorical structures explored during the process arise organically from the client, with no content imposed by the therapist.Metaphors of Movement utilizes idiomatic communication to translate unconscious experience from the non-dominant hemisphere of the brain to conscious awareness (dominant hemisphere). This gives a fuller picture of the problem, creating harmonized understanding within the brain.Hi, I'm Dale Turnbull, an Englishman living in New York, and I help people create meaningful change through training, coaching, and mentoring in Metaphors of Movement. My aim is simple: to open up new possibilities for both clients and therapists by exploring how change really works.I got started in this field through Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), learning directly from the creators John Grinder and Richard Bandler. That experience kicked off a fascination with what is the differnece that truly makes the difference when it comes to change work. Since then, I've added a few more tools to my kit including Hypnosis, Provocative Change Works (PCW), Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) and Metaphors of Movement (MoM).After more than 12 years working with individuals and organizations, I'm now focused on sharing this powerful, eye-opening approach with others.

What if the reason you haven't reached your next level isn't strategy — but subconscious programming? So many driven leaders do "all the right things," yet still feel stuck, unfulfilled, or disconnected from their purpose. The missing piece often lives beneath the surface. In this episode of The Business of You, we explore the powerful relationship between mindset, purpose, and success — and how rewriting the mental scripts formed early in life can radically change both your business and your personal fulfillment. Eli Bowman is a top-selling author, certified Aspire Tour Speaker, and 7-figure entrepreneur who scaled a startup to a multimillion-dollar valuation after transforming his own internal programming. As a certified expert in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Eli helps leaders identify unconscious beliefs and replace them with empowering frameworks rooted in authenticity and intention. In this episode, Eli breaks down how subconscious conditioning shapes outcomes, how to move through deconstruction without getting stuck, and how you can begin rewriting your own program. Understanding the Programs That Run Your Life Eli explains how our earliest experiences shape unconscious beliefs that quietly dictate our decisions, behaviors, and tolerance for risk. From birth through early childhood, the brain is highly impressionable — absorbing messages about safety, success, and self-worth that often remain unexamined well into adulthood. For entrepreneurs and leaders, these hidden programs can show up as fear of failure, chronic self-doubt, or resistance to growth. By developing awareness and learning to observe these patterns without judgment, leaders gain the power to choose differently — rather than repeating inherited scripts. Through neuro-linguistic programming, Eli shows how becoming conscious of these internal patterns is the first step toward reclaiming agency and building a future aligned with who you truly are. The Path of Purpose: From Deconstruction to Impact Eli introduces his framework, The Path of Purpose, guiding listeners through four stages: conformity, deconstruction, enlightenment, and impact. While deconstruction can feel uncomfortable — even painful — Eli reframes it as a necessary foundation for authenticity and lasting fulfillment. Rather than identifying with being "broken" or perpetually healing, Eli encourages completion — acknowledging past conditioning, releasing it, and consciously choosing new beliefs. This shift allows leaders to move forward with clarity, confidence, and creative energy. When purpose becomes clear, impact naturally follows. Eli's journey shows that fulfillment isn't found by chasing success — it's found by aligning internal truth with external action.

This can be really painful. This could look like rock bottom. It could look like despair. No one wants to experience that, but sometimes rock bottom isn't a place where you arrive — it's a foundation upon which you can build. For me, rock bottom was necessary." 35:48 – 36:35 "We create as we speak. Here's the framework I would give someone. The self-talk that we participate in must be positive, uplifting, hopeful, edifying, and creative — not destructive, not critical of ourselves. The way we talk about ourselves to ourselves is so powerful and it directly affects our day-to-day life. We say the words, or think them, to ourselves. Our unconscious mind retains that. And our unconscious mind is responsible for the patterns we live, day to day." Quotes "Rock bottom isn't where you end — it's where you rebuild." "We create as we speak." "Borrowed beliefs will always limit authentic success." "Your purpose is found when you choose who you are — not who you were told to be."

In today's episode, I sat down with Josh Davis, a neuroscientist, author, and master of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), to explore how the way we communicate—our words, tone, body language, and mindset—can shape the emotional responses of those we love most. Josh didn't just explain NLP; he showed it in action—by putting me in the hot seat. We talked real-life scenarios that dads like us face daily, from explosive moments with kids to feeling emotionally disconnected from our spouses. Josh walked me through powerful, science-backed communication tools that shifted my perspective in real time.
