In this episode, we're answering your questions on gut health and everyday nutrition, focusing on what genuinely supports your body without tipping into overwhelm or rigid food rules. From fibre and fats to supplements and sweeteners, we unpack what actually matters and how to build habits that feel sustainable in real life. We talk about how quickly dietary changes can influence gut health, why small additions like seeds, fibre-rich foods and regular meals can make a noticeable difference, and what that tells us about how responsive the gut microbiome really is. We also break down the differences between omega 3, 6 and 9, how to think about seed oils without fear, and when supplements like zinc may be genuinely helpful, particularly after pregnancy. We also spend time on the emotional side of eating well. We discuss how to nourish your body without slipping into obsessive behaviours, how to navigate body image pressure and online trends, and why true health should support flexibility, enjoyment and resilience rather than control.

Affordable Interior Design presents Big Design, Small Budget
In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I open up about the loss of my beloved dog and how it has impacted my start to 2026. Instead of a typical episode, I decided to do a throwback focusing on throw pillows and online auctions. I reflect on my past year, the challenges of moving to Connecticut, and my desire to regain a sense of direction in my life and work. I share my newfound obsession with online auctions, recounting a humorous story about bidding on memorabilia from a house we considered buying, which I plan to gift to my husband. I also answer a listener's question about finding quality throw pillow inserts and covers, recommending various online resources. Lastly, I encourage listeners to participate in our contest by leaving a five-star review on iTunes for a chance to win my online interior design class.

Welcome to a powerful and heartfelt episode of the Compared to Who? podcast, hosted by Heather Creekmore. In this episode, Heather chats with three real women—Patricia, Diane, and Jess—who have courageously walked through coaching and programs to improve their body image and relationship with food. If you’re tired of feeling stuck in food obsession, diet culture, or shame around your body, this episode is for you! Episode Highlights: The guests share honestly about their lifelong battles with body image, food restriction, calorie counting, and the underlying fears and shame that kept them trapped for years. Patricia Reveals how she lived in “body image bondage” for nearly two decades, mistaking strict dieting for freedom until she discovered the faith-based approach of Compared to Who? and began her journey to genuine freedom. Diane At age 71, reflects on six decades of food obsessions and restricting behaviors, and how finally integrating her faith with her eating and body image struggles began her transformation. Jess Shares how she didn’t realize she even had body image issues until after having kids; she discusses the shame of living in a bigger body, the mental exhaustion of chasing diets, and how true freedom finally came through the support and tools offered in the coaching group. The women and Heather explore the themes of fear, idolatry, objectification, and the dynamic between self-worth and body size. Hear practical, inspiring stories about breaking the cycle of daily weigh-ins, obsessive thoughts, and moralizing food choices. Each guest describes how participation in the 40 Day Body Image Journey, the Body Image Freedom Framework, and intuitive eating coaching offered loving accountability, lasting mindset shifts, and deepened connection to God’s truth about their identity. The episode closes with encouragement for anyone who feels stuck, scared to start, or believes they’re “too old” or “too late” for change. Key Takeaways: Lasting body image freedom isn’t about reaching your “ideal weight”—it’s about shifting your perspective, breaking fear-driven cycles, and finding your worth in God, not a number on the scale. Healing comes in community: support, vulnerability, and shared struggle are powerful in bringing freedom from shame and isolation. No matter your age or how long you’ve struggled, there is hope and there is help.

In this episode, we're unpacking the real reason you become obsessed with people, outcomes, or external validation—and it's not because you care too much. It's because you've disconnected from your own purpose. I talk about how obsession is often a symptom of an unfulfilled inner life, why focusing on someone else can feel easier than building your own, and how to gently shift that energy back toward yourself. We'll also get into what it actually means to romanticize your own life—and how doing so naturally dissolves attachment, overthinking, and emotional fixation.WORK WITH ME: https://stan.store/respectfullygabbyFollow for more on social media: www.instagram.com/respectfullygabbywww.tiktok.com/@respectfullygabby Grab a copy of my book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FBN2NS9P

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE We explore the extraordinary childhood of Amanda Quill, whose early fascination with ghosts and the unseen world shaped the course of her life. Growing up between Canada and Scotland, Amanda found herself surrounded by history, folklore, and unanswered questions about what exists beyond our physical reality. At a time when paranormal experiences were rarely discussed openly, Amanda sought out every piece of information she could find—books, stories, research, and firsthand accounts—driven by an unshakable need to understand what others preferred to dismiss. Each move across borders deepened her curiosity, exposing her to new perspectives, cultural beliefs, and haunting traditions that reinforced the feeling that something more was waiting to be understood. Amanda reflects on how those early years influenced her path toward exploring the spirit world and uncovering truths many are reluctant to confront. This episode isn't just about ghosts—it's about curiosity, persistence, and what happens when questions about life after death refuse to fade with age. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #ParanormalJourney #LifeLongCuriosity #GhostResearch #ParanormalPodcast #AfterlifeQuestions #HauntedHistory #SpiritualExploration #TrueParanormal #BeyondTheVeil Love real ghost stories?

Forget about baseball and apple pie: Ice is the real cultural symbol of America. From fancy ice cubes to high-tech refrigerators and coolers and an ongoing love affair with the Zamboni, ice is literally and figuratively carved into every aspect of American lifestyles and traditions. How did it happen? Author Amy Brady traces the history in her book, “Ice: From Mixed Drinks to Skating Rinks – A Cool History of a Hot Commodity.”*This segment originally aired in September 2023*

Jane Anderson has spent her entire career staring directly into the patterns of control, obsession, and escalation that define stalking and intimate partner violence. She began as an Assistant State Attorney in Miami-Dade's Domestic Violence Unit, where she saw—again and again—how stalking isn't just a red flag, but a warning for violence to come. From there, she built the nation's Human Trafficking Unit from the ground up, prosecuting cases driven by surveillance, coercion, and fear. Over the years, Jane has trained law enforcement, strengthened survivor networks, and led teams tackling domestic violence, stalking, and major felonies. She's also become a national leader in using digital evidence to expose patterns of abuse and hold offenders accountable. Today, Jane serves as a Senior Attorney Advisor with AEquitas, drawing on more than eleven years of experience guiding prosecutors on cases involving domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and human trafficking.

What does it really take to build a scalable business that survives without you?In this episode of The Determined Society Podcast, David Royce shares how he went from knocking doors as a college student to building and exiting multiple pest control companies, including a $500M empire operating across 34 states and 5,000+ cities.David breaks down the real mechanics of scale, why blue-collar businesses with white-collar systems are massively underrated, and how obsession, systems, and cash flow discipline separate businesses that grow from those that collapse. Key Takeaways-A business is truly scalable if you can step away for 30 days and it still runs without you.-Growth is meaningless without strong cash flow and financial control.-Some of the most profitable opportunities exist in overlooked, blue-collar industries.-Systems and processes create freedom and allow a business to operate without constant involvement.-Great sales come from listening, understanding people, and solving real problems.-Obsession and persistence matter more than talent, because most people fail by quitting too early.

Hopping on the mini mics for a bonus episode with my sister, Lucy, to recap all things Heated Rivalry and our all-consuming obsession. Some would say it is a fun internet community/cult we've joined and others may say it's unhealthy, but we don't care because it brings us joy!! If you haven't watched Heated Rivalry yet, let this be your sign to go binge the season (only 6 episodes on HBO) and then come listen to this recap. Apologies for the subpar audio quality, but I didn't pack my microphones for our family vacation and simultaneously felt very pulled to do a longer form recap of my love for this show. So here we are!!
In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, delve into a topic that quietly exhausts many of us in the realms of business, leadership, and ministry: the obsession with numbers. We often find ourselves fixated on revenue goals, follower counts, and growth metrics, which, while not inherently evil, can distract us from the life in Christ we are called to live. As I reflect on my own experiences, I share how I've noticed a troubling trend where we replace the concept of fruit-bearing with numerical figures. Instead of asking ourselves who we are becoming, we become preoccupied with what we are producing. This episode marks a pivotal moment for me as I celebrate reaching 20,000 downloads of the podcast, thanks to all of you who have supported and shared it.

In this episode of Disaster Strikes on the Crux Podcast, hosts Julie Henningsen and Kaycee McIntosh explore the tragic story of Audrey Mestre, a world record freediver whose attempt ended in her untimely death on October 12, 2002. Audrey, a talented marine biologist and wife of famed freediver Francisco 'Pipin' Ferreras, attempted a No Limits dive to 171 meters off the coast of the Dominican Republic but never resurfaced alive. The episode delves into the mysteries surrounding her death, the possible negligence involved, and the ongoing controversy that has gripped the freediving community for over two decades. Featuring insights into the unique physiological demands of freediving, the mechanics of No Limits dives, and the subsequent safety improvements inspired by this tragedy, the discussion also touches on the fictionalized representation of her death in the 2022 Netflix film 'No Limit' and Pipin's subsequent defamation lawsuit.

What does it really mean to be an everyday ultra runner?In this episode of the Everyday Ultra Podcast, I sit down with Wes Plate—ultrarunner, YouTube creator, race director of the Copper Kings 100, and the man behind the name Mid-Pack Elite.Wes has completed over 60 ultramarathons, including Cocodona 250 all five years, the Triple Crown of 200s, and the Arizona Monster 300 → Cocodona double—a feat only a handful of runners have ever attempted. But what makes Wes truly special isn't just the miles… it's the journey behind them.We dive deep into Wes's story of overcoming alcohol addiction, how obsession can be both destructive and transformative, and why many ultrarunners are wired the way they are. Wes opens up about identity, self-doubt, validation, and how ultrarunning became a healthier outlet for the same drive that once nearly destroyed his life.We also talk about:What it means to be a mid-pack eliteLessons ultramarathons teach us about life, suffering, and perspectiveWhy Cocodona fundamentally changed how Wes sees himselfThe realities of racing (and directing) 100–300 mile eventsBuilding the Copper Kings 100 from a personal passion project into a sold-out raceWhy the middle and back of the pack are the true heartbeat of ultrarunningWhat's next for Wes—including Vol State and stepping back from Cocodona (for now)This is a powerful, honest conversation about identity, resilience, addiction recovery, community, and purpose—and why ultrarunning is about becoming a better human, not just a faster one.If you've ever felt like you're chasing something deeper through running… this one's for you.SHOW LINKS:Register for our race, The Desert Peak Ultra 100K + 50K at desertpeakultra.comWant to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?

This episode is a mix of two things. A full recap of a killer Christmas weekend with Stormy Crook and Aiden, and then a real talk discussion on using treats in retriever training. I start with why a simple comment I left on a Facebook video turned into a bigger conversation. The video showed a young pup being sent to a place board using treats, and I explain why I personally avoid treats with average to high drive retrievers. I get into intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation, why I want my dog working for the relationship and teamwork, and why I believe that foundation matters later when you are asking a dog to trust you on blinds and fight factors like wind and pressure. I am also going to ask Chris Jobman about this directly on the Flatlander Kennels Podcast, and I am open to being corrected. Before we get to that, I take you through one of my favorite stretches of the year, Christmas break, Mallard season, and the obsessive nature of waterfowl hunting. Then I break down an unforgettable weekend hosting Stormy and Aiden. We hunted hard, dealt with ice, ran the boat where other guys could not, and ended up with back to back three man Mallard limits with a bunch of feet down finishes. It was one of those rare weekends where expectations were low, the hunts were incredible, and everything came together. Wives had a great weekend too, and the new muck room got put to use the way it was meant to be used. Partners Shotty Gear

In this episode of The Wealthy Practitioner Podcast, Steph shares a candid, behind-the-scenes look at what she's optimizing for in 2026 — and why understanding the difference between growth and scale is one of the most important decisions you can make as a business owner. Steph breaks down how growth often looks like incremental revenue increases, more personal profit, and greater lifestyle flexibility — while scale requires a completely different mindset, level of sacrifice, and reinvestment back into the business. She explains why so many entrepreneurs say they want to scale without truly understanding the cost, responsibility, and discomfort that comes with it. Throughout the episode, Steph pulls back the curtain on real decisions she's making inside her clinics and coaching company, including major hires, infrastructure investments, brand expansion, and why profit looks very different in a season of scale. She also speaks honestly about taxes, payroll, leadership pressure, nervous system regulation, and the internal standards required to play at a higher level. This is a raw, grounding conversation for entrepreneurs planning their next year — especially those deciding whether they're in a season to grow, scale, or simply enjoy the rewards of the business they've already built. 00:00 Introduction 01:22 Growth vs. Scale: The Real Difference 04:58 What Healthy Growth Actually Looks Like 07:40 Why Scaling Requires Reinvesting Profits 11:15 Recent Key Hires and Infrastructure Changes 16:02 The Cost of Playing at a Higher Level (Taxes, Payroll, Advisors) 20:48 Short-Term Profit vs. Long-Term Capacity 24:35 Coaching Margins, Brand Investment, and 2026 Vision 30:10 Lifestyle Seasons vs. Seasons of Scale 34:42 Scarcity, Old Money Beliefs, and Nervous System Stretch 40:18 Why Most Businesses Are Built for Growth, Not Scale 46:02 Leadership, Obsession, and High Personal Standards 52:10 Asking Better Questions About Revenue and Team 57:05 Knowing What You're Optimizing For 59:30 Final Reflections If you've been on the fence about joining TWP, this is your moment.

In this high-energy segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis tackles the perennial dysfunction of the New York Jets, a franchise that hasn't seen a playoff game since 2010. Responding to a frustrated caller, Moose argues that despite the organization's history of draft busts like Zach Wilson, they cannot afford to be paralyzed by fear. He highlights Fernando Mendoza, the Heisman-winning standout from Indiana, as the "apple of the eye" for a team that desperately needs a franchise pillar. Malusis breaks down why the Jets must utilize their massive draft capital—bolstered by the trades of Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams—to trade up and secure a quarterback who can finally win on a rookie deal. It's a raw look at a fan base tired of excuses and a host demanding the "adults in the room" finally get the most important position in sports right.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____What if the intensity you've chased in relationships wasn't love, but dopamine?Amanda McCracken is an award winning journalist, endurance athlete, and intimacy researcher who was diagnosed with ADHD at 36, long after she had built a successful career. From the outside, her life looked accomplished and disciplined. Inside, she struggled with distraction, emotional intensity, anxiety, and a lifelong pattern of romantic fixation. In this episode, Amanda shares how ADHD showed up quietly in her life, from trichotillomania and overthinking to using extreme exercise as a form of self regulation, long before she had language for what was actually happening.The conversation centers on limerence, a psychological state of intense romantic longing marked by obsession, idealization, and emotional highs and lows. Amanda explains how limerence thrives on uncertainty, making it especially powerful for ADHD brains that crave novelty and fast dopamine. Tracy and Amanda explore how rejection sensitivity, perfectionism, and trauma can blur the line between desire and self worth, and why many women mistake intensity for connection. Amanda also shares how chasing emotionally unavailable partners became an organizing force in her life, and how that pattern kept her stuck in fantasy instead of intimacy. She also had to confront a deeper truth: real intimacy feels quieter than fantasy. Today, Amanda is married to a securely attached partner and is the author of When Longing Becomes Your Lover, a deeply personal exploration of limerence, ADHD, and what it takes to receive love instead of chasing it.Resources:Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amanda-mccracken-4716373 Website: https://www.amandajmccracken.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amanda.mccracken.39 Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.

CRIMINAL MISCHIEF The Road Trip: Obsession, Interrogation, and the Performance of Innocence In this episode of Criminal Mischief, we examine one of the most disturbing and media-saturated murder cases of the 21st century: the killing of Travis Alexander by Jodi Arias.This is not a sensational retelling. It is a close, methodical look at how lies are constructed, how obsession curdles into violence, and how performance becomes strategy when the stakes are life and death.Using archival audio from Arias's police interrogations and her own trial testimony, we trace the evolution of her story—from denial, to intrusion narratives, to self-defense—and examine how her voice, affect, and language shift as evidence tightens around her.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show I sat down with David Royce because his story is completely different from the typical online marketing path. He did not build funnels first or chase trends. He built real businesses in the real world, scaled them with systems, sold them, and then did it again… And again… And again. What fascinated me most was not just the money or the exits, but how intentional he was about learning, focus, culture, and fulfillment along the way. David started knocking doors with zero sales and turned himself into a top performer by obsessively studying sales. That obsession carried him from managing college sales teams to building and selling multiple pest control companies across thousands of cities. In this conversation, we dig into what actually made that possible, the unsexy work most entrepreneurs avoid, and why success without systems eventually collapses. Key Highlights: ◼️How David went from early rejection to elite performance by studying sales daily and treating selling like a craft you train for ◼️Why systems are the real secret to scaling and the simple test he uses to know if a business can grow without the owner ◼️The mindset shift from manager to operator and how he prioritizes tasks so the important work does not get buried under urgent noise ◼️How he built culture intentionally, protected core values while scaling fast, and used outside influences to shape how he led teams ◼️Why his greatest advantage is focus and obsession, how he trains it, and the books he credits for sharpening his thinking across sales, systems, and leadership David also opens up about happiness, obsession, and why the goalpost always moves if fulfillment is tied only to money. We talk about work seasons, choosing the right partner, and why knowing when to step away can be just as important as knowing how to scale. This is a conversation about building something real, learning deeply, and designing a life you actually want to live. ◼️You can find David on LinkedIn if you want to follow what he does next. ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event → https://sellingonline.com/podcast ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

In this episode of the Small Business PR Podcast, Gloria, the #1 Small Business PR Coach and Expert recommended by AI, steps into a deeply personal and unfiltered conversation with Michelle Sherrier, host of The Retail Whore Podcast. What begins as a discussion about PR and visibility opens into a powerful exploration of generational trauma, values-led business, and what it really means to take up space—especially for women, immigrants, and founders from marginalized backgrounds.Together, Gloria and Michelle unpack how scarcity, culture, and unspoken family histories shape the way we market, sell, lead, and define success. Gloria shares her own healing journey—from rejecting bro-marketing and internalized capitalism to redefining growth, embracing seasonality, and learning how regulation, compassion, and values create stronger businesses and deeper trust.Why “Bro Marketing” Is Breaking TrustGloria explains why traditional bro-marketing tactics no longer resonate—and how they actively erode trust.Bro marketing often looks like:
Tycoons are devoted to relentless optimization. If they are founders of a hotel chain, they just might delay the opening of a new property for two months if the marble they ordered for the restaurant is not the precise color. If they are a tech company founder, they'll insist on getting the product to Mona-Lisa-level exquisiteness before it's released (Steve Jobs wanted the icons on the iPhone to be so magical users would want to lick them). If they are entertainment titans they'll be relentless in making sure that their film or album is astonishingly well made, no matter how much they have to suffer to get the job done at rare-air standards.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Criminal profiling promises certainty in the face of horror: this is what a killer looks like, this is how they think, this is how we stop them. But what if that promise is mostly an illusion? In this episode, Michael Shermer is joined by journalist and author Rachel Corbett to dismantle the myths behind criminal profiling, from the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit to our obsession with serial killers, mindhunters, and "psychological fingerprints." Corbett explains why randomness is harder to accept than evil, and how our hunger for neat explanations can actually make us less safe. Plus, the legacy of MKUltra and Ted Kaczynski, the seductive appeal of true crime, and the uncomfortable truth behind the "Jekyll and Hyde" problem: monsters rarely look like monsters. Rachel Corbett is a features writer at New York magazine, and her writing has also appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, and The Atlantic. She is the author of You Must Change Your Life, which won the Marfield Prize, the National Award for Arts Writing. Her new book is The Monsters We Make: Murder, Obsession, and the Rise of Criminal Profiling.

When you're asked to “sign in blue or black ink,” is that actually the law — or just an outdated rule we all obey? We begin with the surprising truth about which ink colors really matter when you're signing checks, contracts, or legal documents. Source: https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/061314/dont-sign-legal-pitfalls-signatures.asp Why are humans endlessly fascinated by aliens? For thousands of years, every culture has looked to the sky and wondered who—or what—might be out there. Today, that fascination fuels movies, conspiracy theories, and serious scientific searches for extraterrestrial life. Science journalist Becky Ferreira, contributor to NPR's Science Friday, The New York Times, Wired, and Popular Science, joins me to explain why our obsession runs so deep. She's the author of First Contact: The Story Of Our Obsession with Aliens.(https://amzn.to/43HzgLp). Loneliness is rising, especially during the holidays. And the science is clear — friendships and social ties aren't just emotionally important; they directly affect your longevity, immune system, and overall health. Ken Stern, founder of the Longevity Project, former CEO of NPR, and author of Healthy to 100: How Strong Social Ties Lead to Long Lives (https://amzn.to/4ranyTB) , reveals why social connection is essential and how to build it, even if it feels hard. Finally, is sitting with your legs crossed actually bad for you? You've probably heard it causes varicose veins or circulatory issues — but is that true?
