Text me your content win!Let's be honest—going viral looks sexy on the outside, but it might be silently destroying your business from the inside. This week on The Travel Creator Podcast, I break down exactly why viral content doesn't equal success—and how you can actually create content that connects, converts, and changes lives.

In this episode of Out of the Clouds, host Anne Mühlethaler welcomes Karen Salmansohn, a bestselling author who has sold over 2 million books globally and describes herself as someone who puts "Psychology Today and Mad Magazine in a blender and presses frappé." Known for writing self-help books for people who wouldn't be caught dead reading self-help and pioneering the self-help book with attitude—she was the first personal development author to put a curse word in a book title with "How to Be Happy, Dammit"—Karen brings her signature blend of wisdom and wit to every conversation.Karen's journey from senior VP creative director in advertising to bestselling author began with a bold leap of faith driven by pure passion. After achieving early success in advertising (including winning a Clio in her first six months on the job), she realised she wanted to write a novel. After threatening to quit, she finally did. After her first novel, she came to pen books meant to inspire people to think in new ways, more fulfilling to Karen than writing copy to convince the same people to switch toothpaste brands. Karen shares the story of how this bold decision led to a remarkable career spanning novels, self-help books, and everything in between.In their conversation, Anne and Karen explore the inspiration behind Karen's latest book, "Your To Die For Life," which emerged from both her experience of "near life experiences" (being life-adjacent rather than fully present) and the profound impact of her father's death. Karen shares how giving her father's eulogy prompted her to write her own, leading to a thorough reassessment of her priorities and inspiring her to move from working in "beast mode" to what she now calls "best mode."The discussion delves deep into Karen's practical framework for living intentionally, including her seven core values (Authentic, Brave, Curious, Discerning, Empathic love, Fun, and Gratitude) that she reverse-engineered from the top regrets of the dying. Karen explains her powerful concept of identity-based habits and "to-die lists"—daily practices that help align your actions with who you want to become, using the format "I am [core value] and so I do [action]."One of the most compelling parts of their conversation centers on Karen's marble jar ritual—a tangible way to practice mortality awareness by representing each remaining month of life as a marble, creating a monthly ritual of reflection and intentional living. Karen describes herself as a "middle of life doula," someone helping people create meaningful change while there's still runway ahead.Throughout the interview, Karen demonstrates her gift for making profound concepts accessible through humor and practical tools. From her early days writing silly poems about chemistry homework to helping readers navigate life's heaviness with levity, she embodies her belief that humor is a great survival tool and that we can find awe and meaning in everyday moments.The conversation touches on behavioral change, the importance of meaningful relationships, the power of curiosity as an antidote to fear, and how mortality awareness can awaken us to make each day more beautiful and purposeful. Karen's approach isn't about morbid fixation on death, but rather using awareness of life's finite nature to live more vividly and intentionally.A thoughtful and inspiring conversation that offers both practical tools and philosophical insights for anyone seeking to live more fully and authentically.Happy listening! Selected links from episodeConnect with Karen:On Instagram @notsalmonOn Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Notsalmon/On LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/karensalmansohn/On Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@karensalmansohn-OFFICIALKaren's Work:Your To Die For Life - Karen's latest book and websiteKaren's Substack: The Stand-Up PhilosopherLegacy Lab coaching with KarenYou're never too old to re-jigger your life - a video masterclassHer TEDxTalk: Fun is your high-performance fuelReferenced in the Interview:Jonathan Fields interviews Karen Salmansohn for the Good Life ProjectKaren's Notable Books Mentioned:"How to Be Happy, Dammit" - The book that started it all"Even God Is Single, So Stop Giving Me a Hard Time""The Clitourist: A guide to one of the hottest spots on Earth""How to Make Your Man Behave in 21 Days or Less Using the Secrets of Professional Dog Trainers"Karen's Song Picks:Alanis Morissette - "You Learn"Sarah Bareilles - "Brave"Philosophical References:Aristotle's philosophy on living a good lifeThe Tibetan Book of Living and DyingRegina Spektor (artist Karen admires)Links: Jonathan Fields interviews Karen Salmansohn for the Good Life ProjectSome of Karen's most successful titles: How to be Happy, dammit Even God Is Single, so stop giving me a hard Time.The Clitourist :  A guide to one of the hottest spots on Earth for people with a clitoris, or people who love people with oneThe upcoming book:https://yourtodieforlife.com/Karen's picks for the song that best represents her https://open.spotify.com/track/2yx1kAK1Fe2zTOsaDKSNBk?si=4a71f79f8dd54b55Alanis Morissette You Learn (live) Brave by Sarah Bareilles https://open.spotify.com/track/6Uy6K3KdmUdAfelUp0SeXn?si=4b6e66955a8743f2 This episode is brought to you by Le TrenteAre you a purpose-driven individual seeking clarity in your personal narrative?

There was blood everywhere. A man lay on the floor of the mall, gasping for air as it poured from his neck. Dozens of people stood around and watched...including me.In this raw and personal episode, I share the true story of the moment that shook me to my core, long before I became a medic, firefighter grad, or even knew how to save a life. This was the day I realized how dangerous it is to be unprepared... and how easy it is to become just another bystander.If you've ever wondered what you would do in an emergency, this episode is for you.

You might think it's your metabolism, your crazy schedule, or your unsupportive family holding you back from losing weight… but what if it's actually something as small as forgetting your gym shoes?In this episode, I'm walking you through the real reason your progress is stalled ( spoiler alert—it's not because you're lazy). It's because you're letting tiny, avoidable things pile up and derail your momentum. We're calling out the small, seemingly innocent excuses that secretly keep you stuck, and more importantly, I'm teaching you how to work around them instead of letting them win.Whether it's skipping the gym because you forgot your shoes, or telling yourself you're too tired when you actually just didn't plan ahead, this episode will help you start calling yourself out with curiosity and compassion, not shame.

Frances Joseph is a fractional CFO who helps law firm owners gain clarity, confidence, and control over their finances. With a deep understanding of both accounting and mindset, Frances joins the show to talk about why lawyers need to stop treating their business like an afterthought and start building something sustainable. This episode is a must-listen for anyone running—or dreaming of running—a law firm.Financial Mindset & Profit FirstFrances is a firm believer in "Profit First"—a model that flips traditional accounting on its head. Instead of treating profit as what's left over, her clients decide on their profit upfront and spend only what's left after setting that money aside.“The regular accounting formula is revenue minus expenses equals profit. And we're now saying revenue minus profits equals expenses,” shares Frances Joseph in Episode 192 of You Are a Lawyer.She also helps clients deal with money shame, scarcity mindsets, and the fear of being financially visible. For Frances, numbers aren't scary—they're powerful tools. She makes accounting approachable and fun, and she helps lawyers feel in control of their future.LISTEN TO LEARNHow and when to hire a CFO for your firmWhat it means to create a profitable business from day oneThe mindset shift that makes lawyers confident about moneyWE ALSO DISCUSSWhat it looks like to exit your law firm, even years from nowWhy lawyers often fear financial visibility—and how to overcome itHow the "Profit First" method helps law firm owners take controlJoin the FREE mailing list!Get behind-the-scenes content from You Are A Lawyer. 1) Visit www.youarealawyer.com2) Add your email address to the Subscribe pop-up box OR3) Enter your email address on the right side of the screen4) Get emails from me (I won't fill your inbox with junk)!Interact with You Are A LawyerKyla Denanyoh hosts the You Are A Lawyer podcast. Follow the podcast:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@youarealawyerWebsite: https://www.youarealawyer.com

When it comes to versatile, stylish and practical clothing, few things can compete with the ever-popular hoodie. And if you're a traveler — especially someone who frequents magical destinations like Disney parks or other unforgettable places — graphic hoodies are more than just a cozy staple, they're an essential part of your travel wardrobe. Wardrobe Game-Changer: Nine Reasons Why Graphic Hoodies are the Ultimate Style HackWhy a Collection of Graphic Hoodies in Your Wardrobe is Better than OneThe nine things you haven't considered when it comes to the humble hoodieWhile owning one graphic hoodie might seem like it's enough, let's look at why having a small collection of graphic hoodies is not just a fashion statement, but also a very functional and fun way to enhance your vacation style and comfort.1. Style That Matches the Mood and DestinationDisney travelers in particular know that your outfit should reflect the magic of your day, whether it's strolling down Main Street, hopping on your favorite ride, or capturing Instagram-worthy moments in front of Cinderella Castle. Each hoodie in your collection should tell a different story.Having a hoodie collection means you can:Rotate hoodies to match the mood or theme of your day (perfect for Disney parks or other destinations where each area has its own vibe).Pair a hoodie with different outfits for fresh looks, whether it's a travel morning at the airport or an evening watching fireworks by the castle.Stay comfortable in varying weather conditions—hoodies layer well with jackets in colder climates or provide just the right amount of warmth during a breezy evening.Having multiple options ensures you're always dressed for the occasion while staying comfortable.2. Functionality for Every Kind of WeatherGraphic hoodies are the ultimate travel companion because they're versatile. With a hoodie collection, you can really cover all bases:Lightweight hoodies are perfect for warmer days or layering during chilly mornings.Fleece-lined hoodies keep you cozy during colder months or in overly air-conditioned shops, buses or planes.Oversized hoodies offer a relaxed fit for long travel days or lounging at your hotel.Even in a light rain or the start of a rain shower, a hoodie is a great item to have—pull up the hood and head for cover.By ensuring your wardrobe has different hoodie types and styles, you'll always have the perfect hoodie for the forecast, no matter where your adventures take you.3. Practicality Meets PersonalityYour wardrobe reflects your personality and a variety of hoodies lets you showcase different facets of who you are. Whether you're channeling your inner magic or proudly sporting designs inspired by your favorite travel destinations, your collection can serve as a wearable scrapbook of your passions and adventures.Plus, graphic hoodies are conversation starters. A fellow Disney traveler might notice your subtle Disney hoodie and strike up a conversation, making your travels even more memorable.4. Stay Fresh on Long TripsLet's face it—travel can be messy. From the inevitable coffee spill on a flight, to dripping ice cream in the heat of a ride line, having just one hoodie on hand isn't always practical. A collection of unique hoodies allows you to rotate through styles, so you always look (and feel) fresh without overloading your suitcase.5. Collect Memories, Not Just HoodiesMany graphic hoodies are designed to commemorate experiences or are inspired by events or activities. A hoodie purchased to celebrate your first park visit, another from a beloved travel destination, and one featuring your favorite travel mantra can all serve as keepsakes. Over time, your collection becomes a reflection of your journeys and the memories you've made.6. Practically Perfect for TravelersTravelers know the importance of packing wisely. Graphic hoodies serve as the ultimate travel companion for several reasons:Versatility: They work for multiple occasions, from a morning coffee run to an adventurous theme park day.Cozy for transit: Whether you're on a plane, train or bus, a hoodie doubles as an extra layer or even a makeshift pillow.Photogenic: Hoodies with unique designs make your travel photos pop, ensuring your memories are as stylish as they are magical.When you own a collection of several different hoodies, you'll always have a hoodie ready for your next adventure, perfectly suited to the destination and experience.7. Versatility Beyond TravelFor the record, your hoodies don't have to stay in the suitcase. They're just as perfect for running errands at home, grabbing coffee with friends, or relaxing with a beverage and snacks to watch a movie. A collection of hoodies ensures you're not always grabbing the same hoodie, which keeps your wardrobe fresh and fun.8. A Hoodie for Every MemoryDo you attach sentimental value to any pieces of clothing? A collection of graphic hoodies allows you to attach sentimental value to each one. One hoodie might remind you of your first visit to Disneyland, while another brings back memories of a whirlwind European trip. Each design tells a story, and over time, your collection becomes a wearable memory wall of your adventures.And the best part? You can relive those memories every time you slip one on, whether you're lounging at home or exploring a new destination.9. A Hoodie for Every Member of the FamilyIf you're traveling with friends or family, coordinating hoodies can be a fun way to add a little magic to your adventure. Matching tees are one thing, but picture your group sporting matching Disney-inspired hoodies or each person. They don't have to be all the same, but within the same theme or color. It's a fun, easy way to bring the travel party together and stand out in classic vacation photos.Ready to Build Your Hoodie Collection?A single graphic hoodie is great, but a collection? That's where the magic truly happens. With multiple options from graphics to color, you'll never be stuck with a single look or vibe. Instead, you'll have the freedom to express yourself, celebrate your travels and stay comfortable no matter where your adventures take you.At 1923 Main Street, we specialize in graphic hoodies that cater to Disney travelers and adventure travelers alike. Each design is crafted with care, blending comfort and creativity to help you make the most of every magical moment (and stay cozy while doing it).From park-ready Disney-inspired designs to travel-focused motifs, our hoodies are perfect for expanding your collection. Whether you're packing for your next trip or adding a little adventure to your daily wardrobe, there's always room for one more hoodie.Make your wardrobe as magical as your adventures—one hoodie at a time!Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Disney Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original Disney-i...

There are 4 primary parenting styles out there, but they aren't all completely separate from each other. Like so many other things, they exist on a spectrum. You might fall into different parenting styles in different stages or situations. You'll Learn:The 4 main parenting styles, and how to recognize when you are using each oneThe benefits of authoritarian parentingHow to shift away from being overly strict, permissive or detached and get to a more connected and healthy space with your childIn this episode, I hope you'll become more aware of your own parenting style, be a little more understanding of where other parents are coming from and learn to shift your approach closer to where you want it to be.---------------------------------------It can be easy for us to judge parents with a different style from our own, but you'll notice as we go through them that, while we may have tendencies that match most with one style, none of us fits into just one of these categories. In this episode, I hope you'll become more aware of your own parenting style, be a little more understanding of where other parents are coming from and learn to shift your approach closer to where you want it to be. What Is Your Parenting Style?3 of these parenting styles were identified by developmental psychologist Diana Baumrind in the 1960s. The neglectful parenting style was added later on. There will be moments in your parenting where you fall more into one of these styles than others. There will be moments when you will act controlling, permissive or unengaged. It happens to us all.These periods of time do not make you a bad parent. Our goal is to be aware of how you're showing up so that you can bring yourself back to where you want to be (the authoritative style). Authoritarian parenting is like being a dictator or a drill sergeant. This is what I think of as “traditional” parenting. This parent wants a high level of control over their children. There are rules that you must obey, and if you don't, there are consequences. It's very direct and doesn't really take the child's feelings and emotions into account. There isn't space for conversations about what is underneath the behavior. In this style of parenting, we often see yelling, screaming and spanking, which triggers a fear response in the child. This can change behavior but damage the relationship. Kids raised with this style also tend to have a lot of repressed emotion because they don't know how to process their feelings. It can show up as hostility, aggression or poor self esteem. I don't believe that any of us really want to act this way. We do it because it's what we saw when we were growing up. And often, there is some kind of worry or fear beneath it. We worry that a behavior will continue or get worse, that our kid won't change or grow, that they will somehow not be okay. Indulgent parenting is also known as permissive parenting. It's really common for parents who don't want to be in the dictator role to go a little too far in the other direction. In this style, you might have rules, but you don't really enforce them. Being liked by your kid takes higher priority than being their parent. The truth is, when you follow through on a limit or consequence, your kid is probably going to get upset. That makes it really hard for these parents to enforce consequences. In this style, your child might be really connected to you, but they aren't getting the rules and experiences they need in order to grow. Being too permissive can even impact their health and safety when it comes to things like getting enough sleep, eating healthy foods, brushing their teeth or wearing shoes so they don't hurt their...
