In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik has a straight talking conversation with transformational leadership coach and extreme adventurer Martin Palethorpe. This is not another hype session about grinding harder. Martin breaks down why so many high achievers quietly burn out even while they look successful on LinkedIn. He explains how real peak performance starts with the mind. Not more strategy. From racing across deserts and trekking to the magnetic North Pole to recovering from a 300 foot skydive crash and rebuilding life after a long marriage, Martin shows how mental clarity, nervous system regulation and conscious leadership create sustainable performance. You will hear practical ways to step off the hamster wheel, cut through internal noise and use breath, presence and simple physical challenges as leadership training. If you are a founder, executive or driven professional searching for depth instead of just more output, this episode is built to land About The Guest: Martin Palethorpe is a transformational leadership coach, adventurer and conscious leadership guide. For more than 25 years he has coached senior executives and founders while testing human limits in extreme environments. He has raced across multiple deserts, trekked to the magnetic North Pole and survived a 300 foot skydive crash. Along the way he has left corporate life, moved through the end of a 20 year marriage and rebuilt his inner and outer world. Martin blends discipline with intuition, performance with presence and physical challenge with spiritual clarity. Through his Quality of Mind work he helps leaders access clarity on demand, regulate their nervous systems and lead from wisdom instead of fear and pressure. Key Takeaways : Peak performance is less about pushing harder and more about removing the mental friction that blocks your existing capacity. The mind usually quits before the body. In extreme desert races, “escape gremlins” in the mind created stories to justify stopping while the body could continue. Obsessing over results and targets can damage performance. It fuels stress, burnout and illness rather than sustainable excellence. Most high achievers are driven by unexamined conditioning. Make more money. Move faster. Look successful. Without asking what any of that truly delivers. In a high pressure moment the simplest shift is to stop and breathe. Breathwork calms the nervous system so you can respond instead of react. You have to step off the hamster wheel. Retreats, quiet time and honest self inquiry are key to hearing deeper wisdom beneath autopilot thinking. Redefine failure. Playing full out means you will sometimes fall short. Protecting your image often costs you a fully lived life. Small physical challenges like cold water immersion expose how much suffering comes from the story in your mind rather than the situation itself. Real success is not about winning or status. It is about a healthy body, honest relationships, inner peace and meaningful impact. How To Connect With Martin Palethorpe : To explore Martin's retreats, coaching and Quality of Mind work.

How often have you heard the phrase ‘If they wanted to they would'? Well in today's episode, I'm talking about that well used advice and how it isn't always useful. AND offering you a new perspective to try on in its place.AND I'm also going to be talking about why we OBSESS over certain people or situations - and what to do when you notice your brain is in fixation mode.Mentioned in the episode:Request details of 1:1 coaching: rebecca@rebeccaorecoaching.com
“I think what I've discovered in the last few years is that you can be doing everything right on the energetic side of things.” • Feeling like it is the end when you have one embryo left or one last IVF transfer • Obsessing over fertility numbers and treating them like destiny • Subconscious gender stories, boy mom identity and beliefs about women • Spirit babies, soul contracts and staying grounded in your own joy • Cellular health, frequency and trusting fertility as innate • Nervous system safety, emotional release and facing hard feelings instead of staying positive • False surrender, discipline as self love and choosing to live your life while TTC “Those are just stories we're making up.” Hello Beautiful, Monica here supporting you to become the conscious mama you were born to be… In this intimate, behind the scenes coaching session, we walk into the tender place so many women land on this journey. The place where you are staring at your labs, your age, your one embryo left and your brain is screaming, this is the end. I share how I went into my own last frozen embryo transfer with the twins convinced it was my final shot, miscarried, and truly believed I would only have one child. Looking back with the eyes I have now, I can see how much of that was a story, a protection pattern and a total disconnect from the truth that fertility lives in your cells, not in your fear. We explore gender anxiety, boy versus girl stories, and the sneaky subconscious beliefs many of us carry about women, mothers and ourselves. I talk about growing up with a deeply masculine mother, realizing I subconsciously thought all women were bitches, and why my mentor once told me I literally could not hold the woman frequency yet. We fold in spirit babies, soul contracts, and the very human temptation to outsource our power to readings instead of doing the unsexy work of cellular health, nervous system safety, emotional healing and actual joy. If you are tired of trying to stay positive, secretly terrified of another failed transfer, or spinning in false surrender while saying you have “let it go,” this conversation is your loving interruption. You will hear practical tools, real stories and a deeply truthful reframe that might finally let your shoulders drop and your heart exhale. Press play if you are ready to believe that this is not the end and that your baby is far more interested in your frequency than your perfection. “Anyways, that's why it's all about you. The baby doesn't want anything. It wants the same frequency, so coming home to yourself is the best thing you can do.” Timestamps 00:00 - When you are doing everything right energetically and still stressed before IVF 02:51 - Thinking this is the end after loss and why those stories are not the full truth 10:21 - Boy mom identity, feminine wounds and subconscious beliefs about women 17:57 - Spirit baby readings, soul contracts and not outsourcing your power 26:36 - Facing hard emotions instead of forcing positivity before an IVF transfer 32:45 - Written in the stars, miscarriage guilt and what really affects pregnancy 36:29 - Client story of failed IVF, natural conception and releasing TTC timelines “This is just a chapter. It is not the end. I'm done trying to conceive. I'm going to live my life.” Full Transcript Over on the Blog: https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/one-embryo-left-ivf-transfer-anxiety-spirit-babies-letting-go-of-fertility-numbers-as-destiny Let's Do This Together

Little Rooms: Why Scrappy Starts Create Standout Cash PT Clinics In this episode, Doc Danny Matta unpacks a simple but powerful idea inspired by Andre 3000's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame speech: "Little rooms. Great things start. Little rooms." He connects Outkast's legendary basement studio—The Dungeon—to the tiny subleased spaces where most cash PT clinics begin, and shows why those gritty starts are not a disadvantage, but an asset that sharpens your skills, your story, and your impact. Quick Ask If this episode encourages you to see your "little room" differently, share it with another clinician who's thinking about starting or growing a practice—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Episode Summary AI scribe advantage: Clair saves staff clinicians ~6 hours per week, freeing up time for patient visits and revenue growth. Math of time: Even 3 extra visits per week at $200/visit adds roughly $30,000/year in revenue per clinician. Little rooms concept: Inspired by Andre 3000's "little rooms" quote and Outkast's early days recording in The Dungeon. Outkast's origin: Teenagers making music in a carpet-lined basement in a rough Atlanta neighborhood, with no funding and no guarantees. Clinic parallels: Most cash PT clinics start in tiny, imperfect subleased spaces with limited resources. Danny's first space: A sketchy CrossFit sublease with break-ins, rats, building shutdowns, and bad client experience—but strong outcomes. Skill as your differentiator: In a little room, you can't hide behind fancy equipment or build-outs—your outcomes are the product. Art, not just career: Obsessing over outcomes, studying cases, seeking mentorship, and treating PT like your craft is what gets you out of the small room. Word-of-mouth "virality": When your results are unique, people can't help but talk about you—just like people shared Outkast's early music. Growth phases: Start gritty & clinical, then evolve into a real business owner—leader, hirer, systems builder, and operator at scale. Lessons & Takeaways Everyone starts small: Basements, garages, subleases, apartment gyms—"little rooms" are the norm, not the exception. Your environment doesn't define you: A rough space does not limit your upside if your outcomes are excellent. Constraints create creativity: Limited resources force you to get scrappy, sharpen your craft, and focus on what really matters. Obsess over outcomes: Losing sleep over stalled cases, studying, and improving is part of turning PT into your art. Your story is an asset: The weird, stressful, funny early days become the part of your story people remember and root for. New phase, new skills: Once you're busy, the game shifts from being a great clinician to becoming a strong owner and leader. Mindset & Motivation Don't be ashamed of your "shitty little room": No windows, rats, sketchy parking lots—it's all part of your origin story. Treat PT like art: Outcomes and the way you care for people should matter to you at a deeper level than "just a job." You can't hold talent down: Great outcomes and care are like a beach ball underwater—eventually they pop to the surface. Respect the grind: The start is hard and scary—but also fun, intense, and memorable. Remember where you came from: If you're in a bigger clinic now, don't forget to tell the story of your little room—it makes you relatable. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Leverage an AI scribe: Use tools like Clair to pull 5–6 hours/week off your clinicians' plates and reinvest that time into patients or higher-level work. Focus on outcomes first: Before worrying about decor and equipment, make sure your results are undeniably better than the clinic down the street. Document your story: Take photos, jot notes, and remember the early days—you'll use this later in marketing, branding, and leadership. Invest in yourself: Study, read, get mentorship, and ask for help on tough cases—your skill set is your first real "marketing budget." Level up as you grow: Once your schedule is full, actively learn hiring, leadership, finance, systems, and SOPs. Notable Quotes "Little rooms. Great things start. Little rooms." – Andre 3000 "If you're in a little room, you can't hide your skill set. You have to be really good at what you do." "Your product is you. You need to obsess over it. It's got to be your art, not just your career." "You can't hold talent down. It's like trying to push a beach ball underwater—it's going to pop up eventually." "Don't be ashamed of your shitty little room with no windows and a rat above your head. Everybody's got to start somewhere." Action Items Run the math on your time: how many extra visits could you add with an AI scribe like Clair? Audit your outcomes: are your results meaningfully better than your local competition? Write down your "little room" story: where did you start, and what did you have to overcome? Commit to one learning action this week: a course, article deep dive, or mentor conversation about a tough case. If you're on the fence about starting, accept that your first space will be small—and start planning anyway.

In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry breaks down some of the most common distractions chiropractors fall into when they are struggling, overwhelmed, or searching for the fast track to success. These distractions often look promising on the surface, but they rarely address the real issues holding a practice back. Jerry explains why these diversions are so tempting, how they derail progress, and what chiropractors should be focusing on instead if they want to build a stable and successful practice. The heart of the episode revolves around the idea that success in chiropractic is built on simple, consistent, and often boring fundamentals. When those fundamentals are missing, chiropractors become vulnerable to shiny objects that promise quick wins. These diversions can drain time, money, and energy while pushing the chiropractor further away from the work that actually helps them grow. Jerry outlines six major categories of distractions that repeatedly show up in conversations with struggling chiropractors. Each one is rooted in the desire to find an easier path than doing the foundational work, yet each one almost always leads to more frustration. Key Distractions Covered in This Episode • Online sales and affiliate marketing Chiropractors often hear that they can make "easy money" online by selling products, creating digital courses, or writing recommendation blogs with affiliate links. Jerry explains why this is almost never productive for a local chiropractor. Online selling requires an enormous amount of trust, attention, and audience size. Most chiropractors do not have the kind of influence necessary to make online sales meaningful. It becomes a detour away from patient care, community connection, and building a local business that people trust. • Selling their own expertise through high ticket coaching Big ticket coaching programs and personal expertise packages are frequently marketed as a shortcut to higher revenue. Chiropractors are told that it is just as easy to sell a three thousand dollar coaching package as it is to sell a three hundred dollar one. Jerry highlights why this mindset is problematic. Coaching is a completely different business that very few chiropractors are qualified for or prepared to run. High ticket selling might work for a rare few, but most chiropractors simply end up spending time building a business that distracts them from the practice they are trying to grow. • Special techniques and certifications Chiropractors who love technique can convince themselves that one more certification, one more seminar, or one more advanced system will finally unlock the success they want. Jerry reminds listeners that while additional training is valuable, it is almost never the reason a practice is struggling. Many mediocre chiropractors are successful in business, while many clinically gifted chiropractors struggle because they have not built strong habits, systems, or communication. Technique mastery is great, but it is not a substitute for running a strong business. • Special equipment and passive therapies There is always a new device, table, laser, or machine promising to increase revenue and attract new patients. Chiropractors imagine that if they could just finance the newest gadget, everything would finally click. Jerry emphasizes that expensive equipment does not fix traffic issues, retention issues, or communication issues. If a practice is unstable, adding more debt and more complexity makes the problem worse. Equipment can be helpful when it aligns with the practice model, but it is almost never the missing ingredient a struggling chiropractor thinks it is. • Obsessing over social media and trying to become an influencer Many chiropractors pour energy into going viral, creating endless reels, or chasing likes and followers. Social media feels productive, but it rarely translates into meaningful revenue for a local service business. Jerry shares examples of posts reaching millions of views without generating income. Social media can be a helpful tool for building trust and connection within a local community, but chasing fame is almost always a distraction that keeps chiropractors from focusing on patient care, reputation, and retention. • Evaluating success only by new patient numbers Chiropractors often judge their entire practice by how many new patients they see in a month. Jerry explains why this is a flawed metric when used in isolation. A practice with strong retention, follow through, reactivations, referrals, and good communication can thrive with modest new patient numbers. But a practice with a leaky bucket will always struggle no matter how many people enter the front door. Focusing only on new patients distracts chiropractors from fixing deeper issues in their systems and workflows. Core Themes From the Episode • Success in chiropractic is difficult and takes time. Anyone who claims it is easy is either lying or the rare exception. • Shiny objects distract chiropractors from the consistent habits and foundational systems that actually create long term stability. • Most frustrations stem from weak fundamentals such as poor onboarding, unclear communication, lack of follow up, and inconsistent routines. • The chiropractors who win are the ones who stop swinging for home runs and start accumulating base hits through steady effort and simple processes. • A year from now, your future self will thank you more for mastering fundamentals than for chasing shortcuts. What Chiropractors Should Focus On Instead • Clear communication and consistent recommendations • Strong onboarding and follow through • Building trust with patients and the local community • Basic marketing foundations such as Google visibility and a good website • Simple reactivation and referral processes • Becoming great at chiropractic instead of chasing external validation • Slow, steady, predictable habits that raise the floor of the practice over time This episode encourages chiropractors to step back, take an honest look at where their energy is going, and identify whether they have been pulled into distractions instead of building a stable foundation. The message is clear. Leave the shortcuts behind, recommit to the basics, and give yourself a year of focused effort. Most chiropractors are not one seminar, one machine, or one viral post away from success. They are one year of consistency away from stability.

A note from Danielle: My loves, for the month of November, we are focused on the topic of business—which so very often can extend into being more creative and lucid and heart centered in relationships and creativity in general. Today, I'm talking about my "Be Well Business" formula, where I break down our approach—a more heart centered approach to the whole concept of 10xing. If you don't know what 10xing is, stick around. I'm about to break it down. *This episode originally aired as Episode 185 on May 23, 2025. Danielle loves bold goals and quantum leaps. But not at the expense of wellness—or sanity. In this week's episode, she's sharing the reason she hit pause on chasing rapid financial growth—and how she rebuilt her business around calm, clarity, and a new definition of prosperity. She introduces her Be Well Business Number—a formula that balances revenue goals with nervous system regulation—and explains why weekends, joy, and purpose are more valuable metrics than just the bottom line. This is heart centered 10x'ing—business strategy through the lens of Love. In this episode: Why "10x" isn't just about money What Danielle's Be Well Business formula is—and how to calculate yours How nervous system regulation saved her business (and lifestyle) Why her team chose NOT to chase rapid revenue growth this year The emotional benefits of right-sized goals How to create a business that supports your wellness MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Inner Circle Business Accelerator—limited to 20 spots this round (and they go fast!)

You're listening to Burnt Toast! I'm Virginia Sole-Smith. Today, my conversation is with Debra Benfield, RDN.Deb is a registered dietitian/nutritionist with 40 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food, movement and their bodies. Her work sits at the intersection of anti-ageism, body liberation and trauma-informed care, offering a radically compassionate alternative to diet and wellness culture—especially for those in midlife and beyond. After turning 60, Deb began questioning the dominant narratives around aging, vitality and beauty, and quickly realized the majority of resources still centered weight loss and youthful appearance as the ultimate goals. In response, she created what she couldn't find: A framework for nourishing the body that honors body respect, prioritizes liberation and embraces the full spectrum of aging. Deb is the author of the beautiful new book Unapologetic Aging: How to Mend and Nourish Your Relationship with Your Body. Deb came on the podcast back in 2023 and we had what was really the first, or certainly one of the first, conversations we've had on Burnt Toast about the intersection of ageism and anti-fat bias. That discussion helped lay the foundation for how we're continuing to talk about those issues. Deb is someone I always turn to for resources and wisdom as we're navigating those conversations here. I am so thrilled to have Deb back on the podcast today, to talk about her new book, how diet culture has hijacked the menopause discourse, and why peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are actually giving you all the protein you need. Unapologetic Aging comes out on December 16, so now is the perfect time to pre-order it as a holiday gift for yourself, your mom, or anyone you know in midlife and beyond! And don't forget that if you've bought Fat Talk from Split Rock Books, you can take 10% off your purchase of Unapologetic Aging there too — just use the code FATTALK at checkout.And if you value this conversation, a paid subscription is the best way to support our work!Join Burnt Toast!

Tired of waking up in reaction mode—immediately checking your body, obsessing over yesterday's food choices, or spiraling into anxiety about what you'll eat today? You're not alone, and there's a better way. In this episode, I'm sharing the exact 3-question ritual that helped me break free from the constant body checking and food obsession that kept me stuck in my eating disorder. This practice takes less than 5 minutes but will completely shift how you start your day—from reaction mode to intention mode. You'll discover: - Why living in reaction mode keeps you trapped in your eating disorder's grip - The neuroscience behind why this simple ritual actually works to rewire your brain - The 3 powerful questions I use every morning (and whenever I'm triggered) - How to shift from avoidance motivation to approach motivation in recovery - Specific examples of how to apply each question to eating disorder recovery - Why gratitude isn't just “toxic positivity” when done right If you're ready to stop giving your eating disorder the power to dictate your entire day, this quick win is for you. ----- **The 3-Question Ritual:** 1. What am I grateful for? (Look for evidence of goodness and progress) 1. What am I focused on gaining? (Move toward something, not away from fear) 1. What am I choosing to release? (Let go of what's weighing you down) **From Reaction to Intention:** Your eating disorder thrives when you're reactive. Intention gives you back your power. **Approach vs. Avoidance:** Research shows you're significantly more likely to succeed when you focus on what you're moving toward (freedom, energy, peace) rather than what you're running from (weight gain, judgment, discomfort). **Start Small:** On hard days, “I'm grateful I woke up today” is enough. Progress over perfection, always. ----- Resources Mentioned: - **The Recovery Collective:** Bi-weekly community calls where we practice living recovery with intention together. Founding member pricing: $47/month for the first 6 months. Learn more and apply at www.herbestself.co/recoverycollective ----- Action Steps: **Grab your journal and answer these three questions right now:** 1. What are 3 things I'm grateful for? (At least one recovery-related) 1. What am I focused on gaining this week in my recovery? 1. What am I choosing to release today? **Commit to asking yourself these questions every morning this week** and notice how it shifts your day **Next time you catch yourself body checking or food obsessing,** pause and run through the 3 questions to ground yourself back in intention ----- Quotes from This Episode: *“Your eating disorder loves when you're reactive—it feeds off your panic, your fear, your overwhelm. But when you start with intention, you take that power back.”* *“You can't gain what you want while holding onto everything from your past. You can't move forward while gripping tightly to old beliefs, old behaviors, old versions of yourself.”* *“When you're living with intention instead of reaction, recovery becomes something you're actively creating rather than something you're just trying to survive.”* *“We're not white-knuckling our way through recovery anymore. We're intentionally choosing what we want to gain.”* *“Recovery is so much sweeter when you're not white-knuckling it by yourself.”* Connect with Lindsey Website: www.herbestself.co Private Facebook Community: Her Best Self Society www.herbestselfsociety.com 1:1 Client Applications: HBS Co.

Men debate if women's body count matters, but here's the truth: her sexual past does impact her ability to pair bond, stay loyal, and build long-term connection. The problem is you will never know her real number—women lie, minimize, and hide it. Obsessing only kills your frame. Instead, focus on how she treats you today, her respect, her loyalty, and her consistency. Stop pedestalizing her past and start evaluating her present behavior. That's where your real power lies.

Have you ever created an entire relationship in your head before going on a date with someone? Perhaps you've been texting with them for weeks and have already deduced they could be “The One,” or maybe you live for the two minutes of conversation you have with them before spin class.
