Are you feeling like the world is breaking faster than you can keep up? You're not alone — and there's a reason for it. In this eye-opening episode of the Somatic Coaching Academy Podcast, hosts Ani Anderson and Brian Trzaskos unpack the rising relevance of the BANI world — a powerful framework that captures the emotional chaos of our current reality: Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible. They explore how BANI evolved from the older VUCA model, why anxiety isn't something to just “reframe,” and how this whole messy, uncertain world might actually be a sign that transformation is happening — in you, your teams, and your leadership. Join us for a grounded, honest, and empowering conversation that will help you make sense of what you're feeling — and how to lead through it with clarity, compassion, and consciousness.Listen to all our episodes here:https://somaticcoachingacademy.com/podcastGet access to our free library of helpful resources:http://www.somaticcoachingacademy.com/library-signup

How much can you plan your medical career in advance?Dr Bridget Clancy is  an ear nose and throat surgeon who's cared for more than 24,000 patients over the past 20 years. On paper, you'd look at her career and assume she must have strategically planned it out. But in this conversation, she reveals that that's not the case at all. Dr Clancy left medical school thinking she would be more of a rural generalist, than a specialist. However, a combination of mentors and the need to balance family and work life led her down some unexpected, but ultimately very fulfilling career pathways.In this episode, Bridget discusses the tough decisions she made in her career as well how her out-of-the-box thinking led to new opportunities. For instance, she became a pioneer in telehealth, when she mobilised her private practice very quickly during the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.Dr Clancy has recently closed her practice in Warrnambool and is now focusing on more governance and policy roles within medicine, including as Chair of the rural surgery section of the College of Surgeons. —For more information about the study and training opportunities across regional Victoria, head to the Monash Rural Health website.The North West Victoria and Gippsland Regional Training Hubs have commissioned this podcast to help medical students and junior doctors learn more about training and practising medicine in regional Australia.  Find your nearest Regional Training Hub here.

In this episode, Lisa is joined by group coaching alumni, Jen. They discuss Jen's personal journey of healing from childhood family dynamics, body image struggles, and emotional challenges, highlighting the importance of community, self-responsibility, and ongoing support in achieving self-acceptance and well-being.Topics Include:Family DynamicsBody ImageEmotional Healing[0:31] Lisa announces that the next round of the Out of the Cave group coaching program will start soon in May 2025, encouraging listeners to reach out within the next couple of days if interested.[2:13] Lisa introduces the episode as an interview with Jen, who has participated in the group coaching program, aftercare program, and a retreat, highlighting Jen's growth and healing. Jen shares she is 43 years old, a wife, mother to a 19-year-old and a 7-year-old first grader, the youngest of three sisters, and a special education teacher. She identifies as a recovering perfectionist and people pleaser.[4:07] Jen describes being a ‘surprise' child, with sisters 8 and 13 years older, and growing up in a house built for two children. She recalls her parents' backgrounds, family traditions, and the impact of being the youngest and unplanned. Jen reflects on the recurring family narrative of her being a surprise, how it was discussed publicly, and how she internalized this story, realizing its impact only in adulthood. Jen describes predictable family meals, with her father being present and supportive, and her mother always preparing meals. Jen talks about her father finishing leftover food to avoid conflict, highlighting family dynamics around food and emotional safety.[46:39] Jen describes initial isolation and academic focus during the first quarters of college, experiencing loneliness. Her turning point came when her roommate encouraged her to join a sorority, which led to increased confidence and a sense of belonging. Jen realized that many peers in the sorority share similar body image struggles, which helped her feel less alone and more confident.[58:53] Jen describes a period of self-discovery and reinvention during and after college, emphasizing the importance of social connections, leadership opportunities, and overcoming social anxiety. Jen met her husband through a persistent colleague, married after a few years of dating, and navigated the challenges of blending families and moving homes. Jen experienced a ‘geriatric pregnancy' at age 36, lost weight due to focusing on her child's well-being.[1:03:27] Jen discusses the significant stress from her father's pancreatic cancer diagnosis, his death, and a miscarriage, all compounded by the pandemic. Jen talks about reverting to food for comfort and loss, leading to substantial weight gain. Jen sought out supportive doctors, eventually connecting with Dr. Susan Caldwell who recommended the OOTC podcast. Jen credits this as a turning point, leading to self-reflection and engagement with a supportive community.[1:12:52] Jen emphasizes the necessity of group support, aftercare, and the ongoing connection with others who understand her experience. Lisa and Jen discuss that healing has no finish line, is messy, and requires ongoing acceptance and adaptation. Jen talks about initially resisting group programs but found it essential for connection and healing, noting the value of support from others. Jen encourages listeners to overcome hesitation and invest in their own healing, stating the process is life-changing and worth the investment. *The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠Reclaiming Peace With Food Retreat at the Omega Institute - September 7-12, 2025

This is Part 5 of a five part series with Dr. Susan Friedman. Susan is a professor emeritus in the Department of Psychology at Utah State University. She is well known around the world for her very popular on-line course: How Behavior Works: Living & Learning With Animals). She has co-authored chapters on behavior change in five veterinary texts, and her popular articles have been translated into 17 languages. She shares many of those articles on her web site: behavior works.org It's a great resource for all of us who want to learn more about the natural science of behavior. Susan is a member of the clicker expo faculty. Her presentations at the March Clicker Expo prompted this conversation on schedules of reinforcement. In Part 1 Susan reviewed with us the basics of fixed and variable schedules. She ended with a question about how you get behavior to vary when you are using a continuous reinforcement schedule. We carried that question over into Part 2. In Part 2 we took a deeper dive into continuous reinforcement schedules. We considered how you get behavior to vary without using a variable reinforcement schedule. Susan talked about a moving away from transactional training to training with assent. Part 3 Susan helped us to understand schedules of co-variation. She defined conjugate and synchronous schedules and gave some very practical examples, especially as it relates to husbandry procedures that may involve some discomfort. Again, she discussed what assent looks like and what it means when an animal says no. What conditions must be present for a conjugate schedule to begin and what conditions mean that the training should stop? Part 4 was very much about working in teams. Especially when you are working on husbandry procedures that the animal may not be comfortable with, you need to notice and respond appropriately to the subtle “no answers” an animal presents. When one person is in charge of feeding and the other is handling the procedure, effective communication needs to be there. At the Cheyenne Mountain zoo where Susan does a great deal of consulting work, the goal of each training session is not getting the procedure done. It is having a willing animal for the next session. She talked about the difference between empathy and compassion, and somehow that took us to parenting styles and what to do when a baby cries. Now in Part 5 of this conversation we'll be talking about non-linear analysis. Susan talks about the shift in focus from proximal to distant antecedents. She defines what this means and shares several stories that really help us to understand these concepts. When you're faced with unwanted behavior an empowering question is to ask: if he did what was wanted, what would this individual be giving up? In other words what other contingencies are reinforcing (or perhaps not reinforcing) the behavior such that, from the handler's perspective, an unwanted behavior emerges. If we could make a change in these other contingencies, we might not have to deal with this unwanted behavior. Susan's stories make it very clear what this means and how to go about designing behavior change plans that take the distant antecedents into account. My favorite example involves the penguins at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.

George Firican interviews Dr. Chris Kulp, Professor of Physics specializing in non-linear dynamics and machine learning. The discussion delves into how machine learning is revolutionizing both natural and social sciences by identifying patterns in massive data sets that humans might overlook. Dr. Kulp also shares his insights on applying mathematical analysis to social systems, the challenges and benefits of AI in complex systems like economics, and his experience in interdisciplinary collaboration. Additionally, viewers will learn about Dr. Kulp's novel 'Lost Origins,' which integrates scientific concepts within a compelling narrative, highlighting the power of creative storytelling to make advanced scientific topics accessible to a broader audience. The episode concludes with advice for aspiring researchers looking to bridge science and machine learning in their careers.

Join Jennifer in this thoughtful and eye-opening conversation with author and futurist Jamais Cascio as they explore how to navigate a world defined by chaos, uncertainty, and nonlinearity. Together, they unpack why the old models of resilience no longer serve us, why the moral universe looks more like a squiggle than a straight arc, and how leaders can embrace flexibility, active empathy, and interconnectedness to move forward. With deep insights into the BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible) framework, Jamais offers a powerful reframing of how we make meaning, foster belonging, and lead with intention in times when nothing feels predictable — inviting listeners to dance with complexity instead of resisting it.

We kicked off the episode with a bit of weather banter, lamenting the lingering cold despite the arrival of spring. This lighthearted opening tied directly into our episode's focus on "tricks" as we wrapped up our literary podcast April's “Tricksters” theme. We reflected on the heavier topics from previous episodes, like the intense themes in Shutter Island, and decided to end the month on a lighter, playful note with a game.As always, we reminded listeners about the related content available on our website, Fully-Booked.ca, including recent articles like the intriguing investigation into how a book with only 444 ratings managed to top Amazon's bestseller list.Explaining the Game: “Trick Each Other Into Reading It”To close out the theme of tricks and foolery, we introduced a game where we each selected a handful of books. The goal was to describe these books vaguely enough to spark interest without revealing the title. The twist? If one of us successfully "enticed "tricked" the other into saying they'd read the book, that person would have to actually read it before the end of the year.The rules were:Describe the book's plot enticingly but vaguely.The other host guesses if they'd want to read it.Only after their decision is the book's identity revealed.If one of us is “tricked,” we're committing to reading the book.Play along with us and try to guess on your own!

Arthur, in particular, will be tackling Butcher and Blackbird - a fact Meaghan was especially excited about.Finally, we previewed what's coming next month: a more flexible, experimental approach to May's episodes. We encouraged listeners to explore the podcast backlog and check out all the additional content on our site.

Vaish and Searmi return for another Tiger Moms Chat—they talk about “Non Linear Education”.  From abandoning division to rediscovering the power of poetry, Vaish shares the personal story behind the name Non Linear Education, and both moms reflect on what happens when you stop chasing curriculum and start chasing connection. Whether you're new to presuming competence or have been supporting a non-speaker for years, this episode is your permission slip to step out of the box—and into the zone. What you'll hear in this episode: – Why learning doesn't have to be (and often shouldn't be) linear – The myth of the “fluke” and how it holds our kids back – What flow states and horse training have to do with math and poetry – Why scaffolding doesn't always mean breaking things down – How to shift from building a bridge to weaving a web ✨ Ready to rethink how your child learns? Non Linear Education is now open for enrollment. This course is for parents of autistic and neurodivergent learners who are ready to teach real academics—with joy, flexibility, and full respect for how their children think, move, and grow.

We talk about raising thinkers, loving what is whether we like it or not, discovering and working the shift that makes us feel better, and moments of humanity.A community of two, old friends rediscovered, two people finding themselves in the same lifeboat and figuring out how to row, though not identically, together, and, of course, realizing that of course it's non-linear.Join us.Please.

Leaders, Lead Well!In a BANI World (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible), why is it critical to realize the human touch in leadership? The reason is that leadership isn't just about strategy and decision-making—it's about inspiring and uplifting others. Great leaders have always known that to unlock unlimited potential, you must engage the human touch.The human touch in leadership is vital because it builds trust, fosters meaningful connections, and inspires people to excel. By demonstrating empathy and authenticity, leaders gain credibility and create a positive workplace culture where individuals feel valued and motivated. This connection drives collaboration, innovation, and resilience, enabling teams to navigate challenges effectively and thrive in supportive environments. Ultimately, great leaders focus not only on strategies but also on uplifting and empowering those they lead.For more than two decades, Thomas Gelmi has been supporting leaders and their teams at different levels and in various industries in their development. As a professional executive coach, facilitator, and sparring partner, he does this in four languages (DE, EN, FR, IT) and across cultures, worldwide.Thomas joins Rich and Maikel to discuss the importance of the Human Touch in Leadership in this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT. Leaders, Lead Well!Thank you to all of our listeners in over 85 countries and 900 cities worldwide, we greatly appreciate your support!

Ever feel like time is slipping away faster the older you get? In this episode, we explore the fascinating phenomenon of how our perception of time shifts as we move through life. We delve into the science behind time dilation and discuss how routines, emotional highs and lows, and even self-perception play a major role in how we experience the passing of time. What if time isn't as linear as we think? Can we truly alter our perception of time by simply changing our habits or being more present in the moment? These are just a few of the thought-provoking questions we dive into.With insights from quantum physics, spiritual teachings, and even pop culture (think Interstellar), we explore how time might not be as straightforward as we've always believed. You'll learn how new experiences can stretch your sense of time, while anxiety or routine can make it feel like it's speeding up. Can meditation help slow time down? How can we live more intentionally and expand our awareness to feel like we're living in a more fulfilling, present way? Tune in to hear how you can experience time differently and start being more mindful of how you spend every precious second.

In this episode, Brad W. Minton and career story coach Steph Gillies discuss the challenges faced by young professionals in navigating career anxiety and the pressure to specialize. They explore the importance of embracing multi-passionate career paths and how to craft a compelling career story that reflects one's authentic self. Steph shares insights on resume writing, the relevance of diverse experiences, and strategies for presenting oneself effectively in job applications. The conversation emphasizes that every experience is valuable and can be framed to highlight transferable skills, encouraging listeners to embrace their unique journeys. Key takeaways: Young professionals often feel anxiety and pressure in their careers. The traditional notion of specializing in one career is outdated. Most people's career paths are not linear; they are often messy. It's important to normalize non-linear career paths. Resumes should highlight relevant experiences, including volunteer work. Education can be framed as work experience for new grads. Authenticity is key in job applications and interviews. Having multiple resumes can help tailor your story for different roles. Every experience can be made relevant to your career goals. You can change your career at any age. Guest Info: Steph Gillies is a Career Story Coach, focused on helping multi-passionate professionals embrace their authenticity and design their career story. Having had 32 jobs in 15 years, Steph mastered the job search process and gained valuable insights into how to align passions with career paths.   After being laid off from what she thought was her dream job in 2020, she started resume writing and career coaching. Since then, she has helped over 1000 people discover their purpose and create a career story that truly reflects who they are.

Many of us fall into L&D - and some of us make sacrifices in order to do so. At a time when many of us have faced layoffs and unexpected setbacks, we wanted to spotlight career journeys that had tough times and what our guests did to overcome these. In this episode, I'm speaking with Jennifer Sutherland, Global Leader of Culture, Learning & Development at Trustwave, about her incredible career and the lessons we can all learn from her. KEY TAKEAWAYS Very few people follow a linear path into L&D. This is good because they bring varied business skills to the role. If you do not have any training or L&D experience to put on your resume seek it out. Jennifer shares several ways to do that. Be authentic, especially during presentations, and develop your own style. Listen to feedback but recognise who the outliers are and factor that in before deciding whether to pivot. Take your time when switching roles. Lots of L&D professionals inadvertently end up in a role that is not a good fit for them. Use other L&D professionals as a sounding board and help each other. Understand how humans learn and stay up to date with the research. Stay curious and stay up to date with the tech. Build good relationships with all stakeholders and network. BEST MOMENTS “You created the opportunity that helped you gather the experience that you needed to be taken seriously by those L&D hiring managers.” “Words matter … how you fill in the silence is so critical.” “Frankly, that role was not the right fit for me.” “The career path that I'm on looks bananas, but gave  me all these skills, resources, knowledge, community and networks.” “Create your own sandwich of tech to create what you need.” “The world limits you already. Don't be the one that limits yourself.”   Jennifer Sutherland Bio Jennifer is the Global Leader of Culture, Learning & Development at Trustwave, where she is responsible for driving employee engagement and developing enriching learning experiences. Her team focuses on initiatives such as change management and sales enablement, essential for a dynamic global workforce across EMEA, APAC, and North America. Concurrently, as an Adjunct Professor at Davenport University, Jennifer leverages her expertise to educate the next generation in HR and Learning & Development.  You can follow and connect with Jennifer via: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifernsutherland Website: https://sutherlandtalentsolutions.com The Nonlinear Training Career article - https://trainingindustry.com/magazine/spring-2024/the-nonlinear-training-career https://www.toastmasters.org   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Learning And Development Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-learning-development-podcast/id1466927523 L&D Master Class Series: https://360learning.com/blog/l-and-d-masterclass-home ABOUT THE HOST David James  David has been a People Development professional for more than 20 years, most notably as Director of Talent, Learning & OD for The Walt Disney Company across Europe, the Middle East & Africa.  As well as being the Chief Learning Officer at 360Learning, David is a prominent writer and speaker on topics around modern and digital L&D.  CONTACT METHOD  Twitter:  https://twitter.com/davidinlearning LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidjameslinkedin L&D Collective: https://360learning.com/the-l-and-d-collective Blog: https://360learning.com/blog L&D Master Class Series: https://360learning.com/blog/l-and-d-masterclass-home
