Podcasts about normalizing

In this conversation from Lenny's Podcast, Ben Horowitz joins Lenny to discuss the psychological muscle every founder needs, why hesitation can be fatal for CEOs, when it's time to replace a founder, and how to normalize failure while building confidence. They also explore the Databricks founding story, investing in Adam Neumann after WeWork, whether AI is in a bubble, where the real opportunities lie, and Ben's work with the Paid in Full Foundation supporting hip-hop pioneers.

Ben Horowitz is the co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, Silicon Valley's largest and most influential venture capital firm, with over $46B in committed capital across multiple funds. He took Loudcloud public with just $2 million in revenue (dubbed “the IPO from hell”), sold it for $1.6 billion, and has backed companies from Facebook to Stripe to Airbnb to OpenAI to Databricks (now worth more than $100 billion). His management philosophy—forged through near-death experiences and refined through coaching hundreds of CEOs—contradicts most conventional startup wisdom.In our conversation, Ben shares:1. Why “founder mode” is half right and half dangerously wrong2. The story behind “Good Product Manager/Bad Product Manager” and why it went viral despite being written in anger3. Where the biggest AI startup opportunities remain4. Why you need to run toward fear, never away5. The one trait that predicts that a founder will fail as CEO6.

This Week: Jeff got a letter published in EdWeek this month, challenging the publication of right wing opinion pieces that are racist, and overtly hostile to the institution of public school. This brings us to today's topic, the rising tide of normalization of the not normal in our world of education. From the absolutely insane move in Florida to end school vaccine mandates, even referring to them as “slavery,” to yet another misguided set of responses (and here) to the latest tragic school shooting in MN, to the idea of having armed drones as the answer to incidents of mass violence in schools, we are living in truly troubling times. Thankfully at least some states are pushing back (west coast states, NY State). We've all got to ensure that the attempts to normalize the insane will not go unchallenged.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: ⁠https://sexwithemily.com/ In this powerful episode of Sex with Emily, Dr. Emily tackles one of the biggest barriers to great sex: fear. From fear of rejection to body image anxieties, this episode explores how our sexual fears hold us back and provides practical strategies for overcoming them. Dr. Emily opens with the fundamental truth that fear is often "false evidence appearing real" - we create rules around what we're afraid of and then live by them, preventing ourselves from having the sex we truly want and deserve. Throughout the episode, Dr. Emily addresses common sexual fears from farting during sex to penis size anxieties to performance worries, emphasizing that we're all perfectionists when it comes to sex despite reality being much messier and more human. The episode concludes with the empowering message that facing our fears is the path to becoming our own best sexual advocate. When we ask for what we want authentically, we either get our needs met or gain valuable information about compatibility, because we all deserve pleasure and shouldn't put ourselves last in our own sexual lives.

It's been another wild week, after the D.C. Attorney General sued the government for attempting to install the head of the D.E.A. as D.C.'s emergency police commissioner. Following an emergency hearing, US Attorney General Pam Bondi backed down and re-wrote the directive. But Andrew and Mary highlight why that's just the start: it's no longer just the D.C. National Guard being deployed in the nation's capital, National Guard units from five other red states are being sent to the city, making a complicated stew of who's in charge and who has jurisdiction. Next, they weave this thread into last week's trial over whether California's National Guard performed law enforcement operations in Los Angeles, a potential violation of The Posse Comitatus Act. And with Russia and Ukraine so much in the news, Andrew offers some reflections from the 2019 Special Counsel's report that exposes Russia's long-held goal of taking over the Donbas region. And last up, Andrew and Mary fill listeners in on two DC Circuit cases that have their attention: a decision allowing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to be dismantled and another that allows Trump to withhold billions in foreign aid.And a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

This week on Conflict Managed, Rachel Shaw joins us to share how we can make difficult conversations a normal, productive part of workplace life. We talk about:

Burnout Isn't What You Think—Fix It Without the Fallout  “Is this really as good as it gets?"  You're performing well but still feel drained at the end of the day. Everyone assumes you've got it figured out. Secretly, you wonder if something's wrong with you. Blake Schofield understands. After 18 years in corporate, she discovered most leaders don't recognize burnout because we've normalized stress and exhaustion. Your Burnout Story Isn't What You Think Burnout isn't about hitting a wall—it's chronic misalignment. If you're constantly navigating cycles of high stress, lower energy, and feeling drained while still performing, you're in burnout. Common patterns include:  ● Pushing through because "that's what leaders do" ● Normalizing tension and fatigue as success  ● Choosing between work and life constantly  ● Believing productivity hacks, a vacation or changing jobs will solve it Burnout isn't a character flaw. It's a misalignment between how you're wired to thrive and how you're working. True Success Means Alignment The truth is that burnout is a symptom of misalignment. "The real issue is that tactics only work if you solve the root cause first," Blake explains. True success means removing deeper misalignments that create energy leaks and lead to dissatisfaction. When you lead with alignment, you can perform with clarity, confidence, and ease.   Episode Highlights Understanding burnout:  [00:41] - Why burnout is often more subtle and chronic than you think  [01:47] - How to recognize the signs even when you're still performing well The root cause approach:  [02:23] - Why most burnout tactics fail to create lasting change  [03:31] - How neuroscience-backed strategy uncovers what's really draining you Growth & Alignment: [04:18] - "You're not broken, you're not alone, and nothing's wrong with you.” [04:21] - Learning how you're naturally wired to thrive    Powerful Quotes "Burnout is actually a state of misalignment. If you are constantly navigating cycles of high stress, lower energy, feeling drained at the end of the day, and not feeling as fulfilled or energized by your work, you are in burnout." –Blake Schofield "Burnout doesn't always scream. Often it whispers. Why am I so drained at the end of the day? I should feel more fulfilled or I should be happy. Is this really as good as it gets?" –Blake Schofield "You're not broken, you're not alone, and nothing's wrong with you. Fixing burnout is not about not being capable. It's about learning a new way to lead and live." –Blake Schofield   Resources Mentioned Burnout Type Quiz: https://www.impactwithease.com/burnout-type   Enter the Giveaway + Win Prizes!

What If Million Dollar Clients Became Your New Normal? ✨ Episode Description: What if the thing you're dreaming about—million dollar clients, dream partnerships, a $5M deal—became your new normal? In this episode, I share how one of my private clients went from wishing for million-dollar real estate buyers to attracting them consistently in under six months. And now? We're stretching her into a $5 million reality. You'll learn the exact tapping process I guide my clients through to:✔️ Clear deep-rooted resistance✔️ Anchor unshakable confidence✔️ Collapse time between vision and manifestation This process works no matter what your goal is—whether it's money, love, health, or stepping into your next-level self. It's not about doing more. It's about working with your body, your subconscious, and aligning every part of you with the version of yourself that already has it.

Today's episode is an encore of my conversation with Andi Putt, an incredible speech-language pathologist, and autism advocate. As we head back to school, it's the perfect time to revisit this discussion on talking to kids about autism—whether it's peers, siblings, or the autistic child themselves. Andi shares practical, positive strategies to start these conversations early and empower kids with understanding and empathy.  Have you ever wondered how to talk to children about autism? In today's episode, I had the honor of talking to Andi Putt about the importance of early conversations about autism, and how to empower autistic children through understanding their identity. We also talk about the significance of normalizing these conversations among peers and Andi offers some effective ways to explain autism to children. This episode is one that you are going to want to share with everyone you know!  Takeaways Advocacy for autism should start early and be ongoing Understanding autism can empower children and improve mental health Conversations about autism should be age-appropriate and continuous Normalizing discussions about autism helps reduce stigma Children are often more accepting of differences than adults expect It's important to recognize individual needs in educational settings Open communication about autism can foster understanding among peers Language around autism should be positive and supportive General discussions about autism can help reduce bullying Empathy is crucial in understanding children's reactions Celebrating differences fosters a more inclusive environment Resources can help parents and educators communicate about autism Open conversations can lead to greater understanding among peers  Bio: Andi Putt, also known as Mrs. Speechie P, is an Autistic Speech Language Pathologist specializing in team-based Autism evaluations and neuro-affirming support. She is dedicated to empowering families and helping Autistic children understand and embrace their authentic selves while also advocating for each individual's unique needs. When she's not advocating for others, you can find her indulging in a good book, planning her next travel adventure, procrastinating literally anything, or enjoying time with her family.

Debt has become a quiet, accepted part of our lives, but what if we stopped seeing it as normal? We challenge the narrative that debt is an inevitable part of modern life. We dissect how societal pressures, easy access to credit, and a culture of instant gratification lead us down a path of unintentional debt. This isn't just about the numbers; it's about the hidden costs of debt—the stress, the limited choices, and the dreams that get put on hold.

This first set — Water Birth Stories — gathers real experiences and insights to support, inspire, and immerse you in the magic of water birth! How does your first pregnancy and birth experience impact your second? In today's interview, we're chatting with Carolyn about her pregnancy and birth story of her son Solomon, while pregnant with her second child. We go over her decision to have a home birth as well as the intense first trimester sickness she experienced. Also the denial around labor starting, which we've heard quite a few times from mamas on the show. Carolyn shares that while the birth went very well, it was still different from what she imagined in her mind. Following her birth, she experienced postpartum anxiety that involved separation anxiety and trouble sleeping. Addressing the anxiety and getting help around it has supported and encouraged her in preparation for her next child, due this fall.

Rogers Healy says “we're entering into a more normalized real estate market” despite housing prices continuing to hit highs. He expects a “huge boom” in the next several years as people buy houses they don't really want now and try to sell later. He isn't concerned about June Existing Home Sales coming in flat year over year. “We're still seeing people come out of the Covid fog,” he adds. Rogers notes that weddings recently hit the highest since 1980 and thinks a baby boom could be coming.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

She shares personal experiences and emphasizes that everyone goes through tough times, and it's essential to normalize these feelings.

Summer has arrived, and I'm taking a moment to look back at some of the most impactful episodes to date! I know this season brings a mix of relaxation and planning, especially for families navigating dyslexia. That's why I wanted to bring you our "Summer Rewind" series, a curated selection of previously aired episodes packed with valuable insights, practical strategies, and empowering advice to help you support your child's literacy journey through the warmer months and beyond. This episode, 7 Ways to Help the Dyslexic in Your Life Find and Give Themselves Grace, originally aired in March of 2024, and I hope you enjoy listening to it again (or for the first time)! We've all heard that pesky little voice in our heads say something like, “Well, you should've done XYZ, but you didn't.” Many dyslexics experience negative self-talk. I know I have! Reminding ourselves to be graceful in these moments, while sometimes easier said than done, is the only way through it. Today, I'm sharing 7 ways that you can help the dyslexic in your life give themselves grace. My Untangling Dyslexia: From Identification to IEP course walks you through every step of the identification and support process. I offer two options: the course itself, which gives you all the tools and templates you need to advocate for your child, or the course paired with a comprehensive literacy evaluation. Either way, you'll have a roadmap to follow instead of trying to figure everything out on your own, and you can learn more and apply now at https://www.literacyuntangled.com/continuethejourney! My brand-new mini-course, From Lost to Empowered: How to Get Your Struggling Reader: The 3-Step Evaluation Request Blueprint for Parents of Struggling Readers, is available now! This 3-step evaluation request blueprint walks you through everything you need to know, from documenting concerns with the right details to writing the evaluation request letter with language that triggers legal timelines, to handling what to do when schools try to push you off, and so much more. You can break through the barriers NOW and get instant access at https://www.literacyuntangled.com/from-lost-to-empowered. Topics Covered: Why giving yourself grace is crucial, especially for neurodivergent individuals [1:32] The key reasons that educating your child about dyslexia is the first and most important step [2:32] How parents can celebrate their child's unique talents and find activities where they truly shine, fostering confidence beyond academic challenges [4:12] Normalizing mistakes as a valuable perspective for both students and parents on embracing errors for growth [5:32] Key Takeaways It is crucial for both adults and dyslexic children to practice self-compassion and give themselves grace, understanding that struggles and mistakes are a normal part of life and learning. Educating dyslexic children about their unique way of thinking, focusing on their strengths, and normalizing mistakes are fundamental steps in empowering them and building their self-esteem. Parents and educators can significantly support dyslexic individuals by maintaining open communication, setting realistic expectations, and praising effort over just results. When you're ready to work with me, here are 3 ways I can help you: Join the waitlist to find out when my long-awaited course, Untangling Dyslexia: From Identification to IEP, opens up again!

In this episode of Unfiltered, hosts Daphna and Amy explore the complex and often hidden experience of imposter syndrome. They unpack its psychological roots, how it shows up across different identities and careers, and why it's so pervasive, affecting up to 70% of people at some point in their lives.Drawing from the original 1978 research that identified the phenomenon among high-achieving women, they reflect on how imposter syndrome continues to impact leaders today. This candid conversation offers thoughtful insight into recognizing, navigating, and challenging these internal doubts, opening the door for greater confidence and self-awareness.Timestamps[00:00:14] Imposter syndrome awareness and admission.[00:04:53] Types of imposter syndrome.[00:11:14] Courage in the face of fear.[00:14:56] Imposter syndrome and growth.[00:20:06] Leadership under pressure.[00:22:18] Unique value and self-awareness.[00:26:40] Normalizing imposter syndrome discussions.[00:30:25] Imposter syndrome discussions.Connect with Your Co-Hosts: Daphna Horowitzwww.daphnahorowitz.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/daphnahorowitz/https://www.facebook.com/PEACSolutionshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/leadership-live/id1524072573Amy L.

Let's set the record straight: pain and injury are not just things runners have to live with. In this episode of the Real Life Runners podcast, we're taking on one of the most damaging myths in the running world — the belief that hurting is normal, expected, or even necessary if you want to improve.Spoiler alert: it's not.Yes, injuries are common — but that doesn't make them inevitable. And accepting them as “part of the process” only keeps runners stuck in a frustrating cycle of pain, inconsistency, and burnout. We're here to break that cycle.We'll share real-life stories from our own journey and from runners we've coached — and we'll unpack some of the most common injury drivers, including muscle imbalances, overtraining, poor recovery habits, underfueling, and chronic stress.More importantly, we'll give you practical tools to run strong and stay healthy: ✅ Why strength training is non-negotiable ✅ How to personalize your plan to fit your life and body ✅ What proper recovery really looks like ✅ Why underfueling is sabotaging your progress (and how to fix it) ✅ How to stop outsourcing your intuition to your watch ✅ And the mindset shift that will help you run for the long haul, not just the next raceRunning shouldn't hurt. And it's time we stop normalizing it. Whether you're just starting out or you've been running for decades, this episode will challenge how you think about pain, progress, and what's actually possible for you.00:43 The Trigger: Challenging Common Narratives02:02 Understanding Pain vs. Discomfort04:31 The Harmful Impact of Some Medical Advice05:32 Rant: Misguided Medical Opinions08:56 Reframing Pain and Injury in Running10:38 The Elite Athlete Dilemma19:22 Consistency Over Intensity22:45 5 Common Causes of Running Injuries39:41 5 Ways To Avoid InjuriesJoin the Real Life Runners Team today! https://www.realliferunners.com/teamJoin the Team! --> https://www.realliferunners.com/team Thanks for Listening!!Be sure to hit FOLLOW on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite podcast player Leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

Devastation is the distraction, and the world is not being allowed to see. When will the focus shift back to Gaza? Resetting the camera angle for a convincing story. You are never locked out from learning more. Never say you are not good at politics. Gridlock excuses inaction. Leadership thrives when we feel helpless. The dirty details on the Iran debacle. Amplifying the need for clarity. The stage is on fire, and truth gets smoked out in distractions. The problem isn't chaos, it's multi-domain cleansing. Life is about planting the right seeds. The ultimate check play. This war, like others, has the same patterns and shields. The US is desperate to control China via naval assets. Energy supplies are key. By-product that are good for the Gulf. The new land based alternative. Iran is China's back up plan. Strategic disability for planners. Lip wristed pussies with no missile defense. The NATO member to watch is Turkey. They host US nukes. Russia's has real red lines. Chinese rail tech is a Trojan horse on tracks. And they watch everything. Trade flow leverage is real. When man's hand gets into the Bible, the written word is changed. Book two is out and it shows how they skew things. Shadow groups and code words. Let's all recognize the courage it takes to stand against the system that feeds off chaos.

Cynthia Carrasco joins us this week to share some of her own divorce experience, and what other women should know if they're thinking about leaving their own marriage. Cynthia is a first-generation college and law school graduate and an attorney who has worked in juvenile defense, immigration, family law, and civil rights. She also has experience going through her own journey with divorce. Everyone deserves to feel safe and healthy in their relationships, and Cynthia hope that sharing her own divorce story can help other women feel empowered to stand up for themselves. Divorce is still surrounded by stigma in the Latino community, but we hope that conversations like this one with Cynthia can help break the stigma.    If you or someone you know are struggle with domestic violence or considering divorce, Cynthia has provided resources at the links below:    California Courts Self-Help    National Domestic Violence Hotline    Rainbow Services    Super Mamás  IG: @_supermamas  Facebook: Super Mamás  Twitter: @_supermamas   Website: http://supermamas.com/    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Howard Stern wants sportscasters to normalize the penis. He said announcers will never say they got hit in the nuts or the penis. Kyrie Irving has had it with people criticizing Karl-Anthony Towns.

Howard Stern believes sportscasters should normalize saying "penis" on air. In basketball, Kyrie Irving defended Karl-Anthony Towns from criticism as the Pacers surprisingly took a 2-1 lead in the NBA Finals. Evan and Tiki debated the Knicks' situation, while the Yankees beat the Royals with a 5-run inning and an Aaron Judge homer. Marcus Stroman made a rehab start, and the Mets shut out the Nationals thanks to two Brandon Nimmo home runs and a complete game from David Peterson, though Pete Alonso getting hit angered Ron Darling. Finally, Mike Tannenbaum predicted Aaron Rodgers would be irrelevant by Thanksgiving, and Rodgers recently got married privately.

Today's episode is a heartfelt conversation about the importance of helping neurodivergent children understand themselves and their brain profile, and how this understanding can foster confidence and self-advocacy. Emily talks with Dr. Liz Angoff about the need for transparent communication with children about their diagnoses, and the use of relatable metaphors to explain complex concepts. They discuss collaborative approaches in assessments, the challenges of co-occurring diagnoses, and the role of parents in supporting their children. How can families find practitioners who align with neurodiversity-affirming practices, and how can that lead to understanding and acceptance for both children and their families? Get comfortable, today's conversation covers a lot of ground. TAKEAWAYS Helping kids understand their brain profiles is crucial. Self-understanding fosters confidence and self-advocacy. Using relatable metaphors can aid in explaining neurodiversity. Labels can serve as anchors for understanding experiences. Children often internalize negative labels if not addressed. Collaborative assessments enhance understanding for both kids and parents. Empowering parents shifts the narrative from deficits to differences. Finding the right practitioner is essential for supportive assessments. Normalizing neurodiversity can change family dynamics for life. Have Emily come and speak to your school district, company, or organization. Here's where you can find out more and get in touch.

Mary welcomes back Olivier Melnick to discuss the new normal: antisemitism. He is a Jewish believer in Jesus from France, the son of Holocaust survivors, whose maternal grandfather was killed by the Nazis. Olivier is an internationally known speaker on antisemitism. He holds a BA from Moody Bible Institute and a masters from Dallas Theological Seminary, and has been equipping believers to understand and fight antisemitism since 2000. The ramping up of antisemitism is a complete surprise to some, it's not that long ago that they were the target of genocide during WW2, and if anyone alive has a parent who fought in that war, the connection is still strong. So why now? How are things different? Today we talk about the stages of normalization from his book, "The Normalization of Antisemitism". World leaders are not so subtly being drawn into this hate as the world turns their back on Israel. Words matter. Words turn to violence. Even our neighbor to the north is being drawn in. Israel can do nothing right, so they might as well do what they are going to do to stave off the end of the west through violence, immigration, and Islam.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
