Delanie Fischer chats with Leslie John, Harvard professor and author of Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing, about the nuanced risks and rewards of undersharing versus oversharing in our lives. They explore how the choices we make about what to reveal — and what to withhold — can profoundly shape our health, relationships, and even our careers. Leslie also shares practical, research-backed strategies for becoming a more effective and intentional sharer.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana tackles one of the most controversial beliefs she holds: your children should not be your purpose. Before you close this tab, hear her out—because this distinction might be the most liberating thing you hear all year. Dana opens up about why believing your kids are your only purpose actually burdens them with the weight of your unfulfilled dreams. She shares a heated debate she had at a Circle event where someone completely misunderstood what she meant, and breaks down the critical difference between "my kids ARE my purpose" versus "my kids GIVE ME purpose." One creates guilt, shame, and disconnection. The other creates fuel, integration, and a reciprocal relationship where you empower each other. From her five-year-old daughter's problem-solving at a pumpkin patch ("Mom, get your computer and make money while we're in the bouncy house!") to why she believes modeling beats martyring every single time, Dana challenges everything you've been told about what it means to be a "good mom." The real lesson? When you pursue your dreams openly and involve your kids in age-appropriate ways, you don't create disconnection—you create a team. And your kids learn more from watching you build something meaningful than from you sacrificing silently and resenting it later.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana sits down with therapist and author Elijah Weinstein to talk about the quiet drift that happens in marriages when kids enter the picture. From unspoken expectations and the myth of empathy to practical tools like the import/export list and full communication, he shares honest and actionable lessons on how to stop growing apart and start showing up for each other again. You don't need a perfect marriage to start strengthening it, you just need the willingness to say the hard things out loud and give your partner the full picture instead of expecting them to connect dots you never drew.

In today's episode I sit down with developmental psychologist Dr. Jay Belsky to explore a question so many parents wrestle with: is temperament destiny? We talk about why children differ in how deeply they're shaped by their environments, what “developmental plasticity” really means, and why the same parenting can land so differently depending on the child. We discuss the difference between sensitivity and susceptibility, the limits of attachment research, and why focusing only on long-term outcomes can distract us from what matters in the here and now.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Day 5 of Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series follows the arc of Nurture—softening the heart with warmth so loving-kindness feels safe, steady, and sustainable. In this episode, you'll practice a Heart Chakra (Anahata) meditation using hand-to-heart awareness and gentle breathing to release protective tension in the chest and invite tenderness back in. This is a nourishing practice for anyone who feels emotionally tired, guarded, lonely, or self-critical. Leave feeling calmer, more supported, and more open—without forcing emotion or overextending yourself. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series—a 7-day journey into the ancient practice of cultivating a steady, compassionate heart. This isn't "be positive" meditation, and it isn't personality-based inspiration. It's a classical inner training—rooted in timeless yogic reflections on maitrī (friendliness), compassion, joy, and equanimity—so your mind becomes clearer, your nervous system steadier, and your relationships more spacious. Across this week, you'll build a simple, repeatable heart practice using one focused technique each day: a loving-kindness visualization, a single phrase of kindness, calming breathwork, a heart-opening mudra, a heart-center (4th chakra) nurture practice, a layered "heart stack" you can use anytime, and a gentle weekly review to embody what you've learned. Come as you are—guarded, tender, hopeful, tired, or open. Loving-kindness doesn't require a perfect mood. It only asks for a sincere return. In just a few minutes each day, you'll practice opening the heart with steadiness—so compassion becomes less of an idea and more of a lived inner home. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Loving-Kindness Meditation: A Daily Heart-Opening Series"  episodes 3465-3471. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "META-MICRO MISSION" Each day, send one tiny ripple of kindness: silently offer a loving-kindness phrase to yourself, a neutral person, and a difficult moment (not necessarily a difficult person). Keep it light—3 breaths each— and track your streak with a simple checkmark. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Compassion Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "My heart is open and safe." Day 3:  Heart Coherent Breath: Inhale for 5, Exhale for 5, Repeat for 10 rounds. (Option: inhale "soften, exhale "kindness.") Day 4:  Lotus mudra for opening your heart Day 5:  Fourth chakra for love and gratitude Day 6:  Loving-Kindness Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Peter Salerno, a retired licensed psychotherapist, nationally recognised expert on personality disorders and pathological relationships, and author of The Nature and Nurture of Narcissism and Traumatic Cognitive Dissonance (2024), discusses his work in the field of narcissism. Beginning with his appearance in the Hulu documentary on Ted Bundy, Salerno rejects the claims by those who believe Bundy's serial killing was a kind of reactive aggression, criticising those who believe Bundy's actions were somehow a result of a childhood trauma. To the contrary, Salerno notes how Bundy was able to sustain relationships, even working on a suicide helpline, such that he was able to earn the trust of others, all while Bundy kidnapped, sexually attacked, and murdered others. Salerno draws parallels between this type of psychological assessment of serial killers and the narcissist, where there has been an inclination in the field to understand the narcissist's aggression and control as reactive instead of proactive. Covering the genetic and biological roots behind narcissism, he highlights the scientific findings and neuroimaging that reveal the physiological underpinnings and genetic propensities towards narcissistic behaviour, noting, “This isn't just personality. This is all psychopathology and all mental health or mental disorder.” Salerno historicises research in this field, which is rapidly changing in how it frames narcissism and its victims. For instance, he elucidates the damage that narcissists inflict upon others, what he terms “traumatic cognitive dissonance,” observing how narcissists inflict damage by “insert[ing] a dilemma inside of you, and you don't know what's real or not.” Evidencing how narcissists often intentionally give mixed messages, causing distress in their victims, Salerno explores how this creates a constant state of ambiguity and confusion in “a normal person who simply wants to collaborate and cooperate,” while chronicling how the trauma of narcissistic abuse plays into the victim's goodwill as victims often attempt to understand why the narcissist would terrorise another person. Salerno relates how those suffering from traumatic cognitive dissonance are caught in a double-bind as they attempt to rationalise such behaviour by believing that this was reactive abuse which actually keeps them from seeing this person as a proactive abuser as they think: “Well, you know, they must have been really traumatised. That makes sense why they would be treating me this way.” Salerno carefully examines how narcissists seek out loving and trusting victims to exploit, while self-justifying their actions, even reversing and externalising the blame.

Real estate success starts with intentional lead generation.In this episode of the Real Estate Investing Women Podcast, we break down how to generate the right leads based on your strategy whether you are wholesaling, building rentals, or doing fix and flips.We explain the difference between quick win leads and long nurture leads and why knowing whether a seller needs to sell or simply wants to sell saves you time, energy, and capital.You will learn how to use MLS aging listings, agent referrals, for sale by owner opportunities, co wholesaling, tired landlords, and buyer avatars to build a focused, efficient deal flow without burnout.This conversation is for women who value clarity, systems, and results and want to grow their portfolios with intention not hustle.

Passive income sounds simple when you listen to most podcast advice. Start a show. Nurture your audience. Be consistent. Monetize later. But if your goal is real passive income inside your online business, that advice will leave you exhausted instead of paid.In this episode, I'm breaking down why most podcast strategies are built by podcasters for podcasters — not for business owners who want to grow your online business and create predictable revenue. The content-first model sounds smart on the surface, but without a sales structure behind it, your podcast becomes another creative outlet instead of a revenue asset.You've probably been told to focus on downloads. To nurture endlessly. To chase sponsorships. To monetize a podcast only after you “grow big enough.” You've likely been encouraged to edit everything yourself or outsource prematurely before you even know if your show is converting. And most importantly, you were never taught how evergreen sales actually fit into the architecture of your show.That's the real problem.Passive income doesn't come from content alone. It comes from structure.If your podcast isn't intentionally positioned to sell your offer — if there's no clear funnel, no buyer journey, no data tracking, no SEO strategy driving online visibility — then you're not building a profitable podcast. You're building content.In this episode, I explain:• Why creator-based podcast advice doesn't translate to business-based results• The hidden reason most shows never generate passive income• Why sponsorships are rarely the smartest first move• How relying on social media to promote your show keeps you stuck• The structural difference between a hobby podcast and a profitable podcastAnd most importantly, I introduce the four-part system that actually supports passive income inside your business. Because when you start a podcast for business with the right positioning, the right SEO, the right brand strategy, and a content funnel rooted in buyer psychology, your show stops being noise and starts becoming leverage.Evergreen sales are not an afterthought. They are built into the design of the show. When done correctly, your podcast becomes a bingeable audio persuasion system that warms people up, builds authority, and moves them toward a buying decision without constant launching or burnout.This is the difference between recording episodes and building an asset.If you've been trying to monetize a podcast and wondering why it hasn't created passive income yet, this conversation will help you see what's missing — and what to build instead.If your goal is to grow your online business with steadier, more predictable revenue, you need more than good content. You need strategy.Press play, and let's talk about what actually works.Take what you need — and go run your damn business.Ready to turn your podcast into a real business asset? If you already have a podcast that isn't making sales — or you're thinking about starting one and want to do it right from day one — I'm hosting a FREE, live training that will show you exactly how to build a podcast that actually supports your revenue. Inside the Profitable Podcast Kickstarter, I'll walk you through how to: • connect your podcast to a real offer • stop creating content that goes nowhere • turn listeners into clients — without living on social media

In this episode Cath speaks about how control is such a key coping strategy for so many of us and how this rears its head at times of stress (like early motherhood) and in new situations.

By Andrew Bryant is the founder of Self Leadership International and author of POTENTIAL-IZE: Unlock Potential, Maximize Performance, Inspire Excellence (Wiley, 2026). AI can now compose symphonies, pass the bar exam, and generate text that reads like it was written by a human hand. So, when people ask me, "What is left for us to do?" I give them an answer that surprises them. Tell stories. Not because storytelling is a quaint leftover from the pre-digital era, but because it is the one capability that reveals exactly where the boundary between human and artificial intelligence lies. And understanding that boundary is the key to thriving in the age of AI rather than being diminished by it. Humans Tell Stories, AI Can Only Simulate Them The Necessity, Not Just the Ability AI can undoubtedly generate compelling text that mimics stories. Large language models produce narratives with structure, tension, and resolution. On the surface, the output can be impressive. But there is a fundamental difference between simulating a story and telling one. When humans tell stories, we do not simply relate to sequences of events. We weave meaning, emotion, and significance into experience. Our stories emerge from the texture of being embodied in the world: feeling pain, desire, love, loss, and wonder. Our narratives build upon generations of shared wisdom, values, and traditions. Through stories, we make sense of our existence, creating purpose in a universe that does not readily offer obvious meaning. AI has none of this. It has no childhood memories. No experience of triumph or despair. No fear of death or hope for transcendence. It cannot love. These are not limitations that will be solved by the next model upgrade. They are the defining characteristics of what it means to be human. What makes us distinctive is not just the ability to tell stories but the necessity of doing so; our fundamental need to transform experience into narrative as we search for meaning in our finite existence. Why This Matters for Leaders This is not a philosophical abstraction. It has direct implications for how we lead, hire, and build organisations. Neuroscience research (Stephens et al., 2010) demonstrates that storytelling creates "neural coupling." When someone tells a story, the listener's brain activity mirrors that of the storyteller, creating a deep emotional connection. This is how trust is built. This is how cultures are formed. This is how human beings decide to follow someone into the unknown. No algorithm replicates this. When Klarna deployed AI to handle 2.3 million customer service conversations, it worked brilliantly on paper. But the company quietly rehired humans because efficiency is not the same as effectiveness. Customers in distress did not want processing. They wanted presence, and presence lives in stories. In my research for POTENTIAL-IZE (Wiley, 2026), I studied hundreds of leaders who have successfully navigated the AI transition. They all follow, often unconsciously, six interconnected principles I call the IGNITE framework: Inspire, Guide, Nurture, Integrate, Transform, and Evaluate. The first element, Inspire, is where storytelling lives. Leaders who inspire do not recite data points or strategic objectives. They share stories that give people permission to reimagine who they are and what they are capable of. They become, as mythologist Joseph Campbell described, the mentor in someone else's hero's journey, the person who sees potential where others see limitations. But here is what IGNITE reveals that most leadership models miss: storytelling is not just a communication technique. It connects to every other element of the framework. When leaders Guide through questions rather than directives, they are inviting people to author their own stories. When they Nurture belief and belonging, they create the psychological safety for those stories to be told honestly. When they help people Transform through adversity, they are reframing s...

In this week's episode of the Beet Podcast, Jacques talks with Maine grower Elizabeth Brown about cultivating flowers. They share what first inspired them to start growing, and how Elizabeth makes the most of her six months in her Maine garden. The conversation then turns to the art of arrangement and how intentionality, combined with practicality, is the key to a stunning bouquet.  Connect with Elizabeth Brown: Elizabeth Brown is a gardener and writer based in Maine who believes the very best flowers are the ones you grow with your own two hands. She's living proof that anyone can be a gardener—her journey from tending a vegetable patch to cultivating a thriving cut flower garden says it all. Inspired by fellow Maine growers (including her grandmother), Elizabeth makes the most of her brisk six-month growing season.

They bond tightly, grieve our loss, and follow us around like love sick teenagers.But most people think cats are just aloof or independent. That's wrong. They communicate love through body language, purrs, and even belly exposes.Ignore this at your peril. The longer you neglect your bond, the colder it gets. Relationships take time. Love takes effort. And cats feel it every single day.Study how your cat shows affection. Respond with patience. Nurture that bond. Do that, and you'll have a friend for life.And remember—be careful with gifts and treats. Toxic flowers and chocolates can kill a cat's love (and them).This episode is your crash course in understanding feline love. Perfect for every cat owner. Don't wait. Start loving your cat the right way today.Because cats aren't just pets. They're family.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Day 5 of Heart Renewal: Letting Love In Again follows the arc of Nurture—softening the heart with warmth and self-compassion so love feels possible again. In this episode, you'll practice a Heart Chakra (Anahata) meditation using gentle breath and focused attention at the center of the chest to release protective tension and restore emotional openness. You'll learn how relationship stress can show up as shallow breathing and a guarded posture, and how nurturing practices help regulate the nervous system and reduce self-judgment. Leave this meditation feeling calmer, lighter, and more supported—tender, steady, and open to love with wisdom. Featured technique: Heart Chakra focus (breath + heart-centered attention) Best for: emotional heaviness, guardedness, loneliness, self-criticism, feeling closed off Takeaway: Nurture is how the heart reopens—gently, safely, and from within. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to Heart Renewal: Letting Love In Again—a 7-day meditation series designed to help you gently reopen your heart with both tenderness and wisdom. Whether you're seeking a relationship or you're in one and love feels distant, this week will guide you to release what you've been carrying, calm your nervous system, rebuild emotional safety, and create the inner conditions where love can return—without forcing it. Each day follows a simple arc—Release, Safety, Desire, Boundaries, Receiving, Repair, and Choose Again—with breathwork, visualization, and reflective prompts to help you soften protective patterns, trust yourself again, and feel more open to giving and receiving love in real life. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Heart Renewal Meditations: Letting Love In Again,"  episodes 3458-3464. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - LOVE IN PRACTICE QUEST: Each day, do one small "letting love in" action— release something heavy, soften your body, express an honest desire, set a gentle boundary, receive without deflecting, make a repair, or choose again. Track it with 7 checkmarks and notice how quickly your heart starts to feel safer, steadier, and more open.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana opens up about the constant struggle moms face when deciding where to put their energy and time. From choosing to cuddle her sick kids all week to flying to Arizona for a mastermind event, she shares the raw truth that being busy isn't the same as being effective. She breaks down why every strategy "works" but most of us are stuck because we lack clarity on what we're actually building. The real lesson? You can't delegate, scale, or find freedom without absolute clarity on who you're serving and why. You don't need more time management tips, you need to get brutally honest about where you're wasting energy on busy work instead of building something that actually gives you the freedom to choose the cuddles when it matters most.

Are we born with what it takes, or do we become who we are?In this episode, we explore the debate of Mother Nature vs Mother Nurture and what research says about personality, resilience, leadership, and success. While genetics play a role in who we are, studies show that many of the qualities we admire most are developed over time.This episode is an encouragement for anyone who feels behind, overlooked, or underqualified. No matter your upbringing, personality type, Enneagram number, or DISC profile, growth is still possible. You'll walk away reminded that while nature may start the story, nurture helps write the ending.

In this episode, the conversation explores what women commonly experience after 40—hormonal shifts, identity changes, and new health concerns—and how these changes impact relationships. Rather than blaming anyone, the focus is on insight, understanding, and practical ways couples can support each other, regulate their nervous systems together, and build deeper, safer connection in this season of life.   Key Points: Women 40+ face hormone changes and lower libido Nervous system becomes more sensitive and reactive Identity shifts as kids need mom less Need more rest, quiet, and alone time This is recalibration, not rejection of partners Women need safety, support, and listening, not fixing Women are allowed to change and ask for what they need Shared nervous system regulation (walks, breathwork, rituals) Prioritize sleep and a calm, tech-free bedroom Being rested reduces conflict and reactivity Take ownership of health: food, movement, sleep Nurture nourishing relationships; drop draining ones Reduce phone use and comparison to others Google searches show concern about perimenopause and hormones Women worry about heart, bone, sleep, and chronic health Relationships in your 40s will (and should) look different With communication, this season can deepen connection Quality of relationships shapes quality of life Connect with Anna: Email: annamarie@happywholeyou.com / info@HappyWholeYou.com Website: www.happywholeyou.com / https://linktr.ee/happywholeyou Personal Website: www.DrAnnaMarie.com Instagram: @happywholeyou Personal Instagram: @Dr.Anna.Marie Facebook: Happy Whole You LinkedIn: Anna Marie Frank Venmo: @happywholeyou

In this episode, Julie Kratz discusses global workplace culture strategies with Abi Adamson, founder of the Culture Partnership and a LinkedIn Top Voice. Abi introduces her "SERN" framework—Soil, Exposure, Roots, and Nutrients—as a way for leaders to move beyond performative DE&I and begin gardening their organizations for sustainable growth. Three Key Takeaways Cultivate Your Culture Like a Living Ecosystem. Instead of treating culture like a static construction project with a fixed end date, leaders should act as gardeners who constantly tend to the environment. "Organizations still treat culture like a construction project instead of what it is. That is why I call workplace culture a living ecosystem." Build Psychological Safety to Uncover the Truth. A healthy culture requires an environment where employees can be honest with leadership about what isn't working without fear of retaliation. "When you're able to have an organization that's built on psychological safety... everything else will follow." Reframe Resistance as a Sign of Progress. Friction and pushback are natural responses to major social or organizational changes; history shows that these moments often precede a shift in the right direction. "History has always taught us: whenever big changes happen, there's always resistance... to get to a good place, you do need to go through a bit of a gauntlet."  Follow Abi at https://www.abiadamson.com/

History isn't just a subject in school – kids are already absorbing it in real time through news, culture, and everyday life. How parents talk about historical events at home can shape how kids understand the world, think critically about the past, and apply learnings to their present day. Journalist, historian and creator Garrison Hayes joins host Elise Hu to share how families can make history feel human, engaging, and relevant to current events. Garrison shares what helped him connect with history as a kid, and how he incorporates those learnings into his retellings of historical moments on social platforms today. Together, Elise and Garrison offer practical advice for nurturing curiosity, tackling those “but why?” questions, and helping kids see history as relevant to their present, rather than just facts and figures.Key Takeaways:Present history as about the people and lives in it, rather than just facts and figures.Consider underlying systems or the bigger picture when learning about historical moments.Nurture your child's curiosity by having conversations about hard things.Bring history into everyday life with age-appropriate media from podcasts or books.Be open to unlearning or refreshing perspectives you might have learned previously.⏱️ Timestamps:Keep the conversation going at home with our FREE Conversation Kit companion guide: https://delivery.shopifyapps.com/-/314ab0013cfec545/c30fe92ace27570eFollow Garrison Hayes on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/garrisonh/New episodes every Tuesday:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AKidsCoApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/raising-us-a-parenting-podcast/id1552286967Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2bIRVxM8hbriNxydkSv6VGOr wherever you get your podcasts.

In Day 5 of Anxiety Alchemy Week, the arc is Nurture—releasing anxiety by offering your nervous system the support it's been craving. This episode features a 3rd chakra (Solar Plexus) practice that uses breath, warmth, and focused attention on the upper belly/diaphragm to ease stress tension and rebuild a felt sense of steadiness and confidence. You'll explore how anxiety often intensifies when you're depleted or pressuring yourself, and you'll be guided to nurture your inner center with a calming visualization. If you've been feeling tense, overwhelmed, or hard on yourself, this meditation will help you soften the pressure and return to grounded self-trust. Featured technique: Solar Plexus (3rd chakra) breath + warm focus Best time to practice: before decisions, before difficult conversations, when feeling pressured or overwhelmed Intention: release anxiety held in the body and nurture steady confidence This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Anxiety Alchemy Week,"  episodes 3451-3457.

Think of this week as a soft return to yourself: less bracing, less overthinking, and more ease in your body, your choices, and your day. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "Anxiety Reset Que Challenge" Choose one daily "reset cue"—each time you touch a door handle, open your phone, or sit down, take one long exhale (or one round of your day's breath).
