When Dr Hayden Nadolny lost the ability to move, everything he believed about health was tested.In this conversation, Martin talks with Hayden, a second-generation chiropractor, about how a sudden battle with Guillain-Barré Syndrome shifted his entire view of practice, leadership, and life.From three and a half years of fly-in, fly-out work to taking over his father's practice, Hayden's story is one of discipline, empathy, and presence.They explore how recovery taught him to slow down, connect more deeply, and see that real impact often comes from giving one person your full attention.A grounded, insightful conversation about what happens when paralysis, literally, leads to presence.Check out the Retention Recipe https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/retention-recipe-2-0To learn more about Reactivate to Accelerate https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/reactivateLearn more about Daily Visit Communication 2.0https://insideoutpractices.thinkific.com/courses/daily-visitEmail me - martin@insideoutpractices.com

Life is full of moments that leave us feeling stuck, broken, or overwhelmed by the impossible. Whether it's a health crisis, a fractured relationship, financial stress, or the weight of our own failures, we all encounter situations that seem beyond hope. Yet, in the midst of these impossibilities, Jesus stands as the one who not only sees our pain but has the power to heal and restore in ways we can't imagine. The story in Luke 5 of the paralyzed man and his friends reminds us that Jesus is not just a remarkable teacher or miracle worker—He is utterly unique, the only one with authority to forgive sins and transform lives from the inside out. When the paralyzed man's friends couldn't get through the crowd, they tore open the roof to bring him to Jesus. Their determination is a picture of the kind of faith that refuses to let obstacles keep us from the only one who can truly help. But notice that Jesus doesn't start by healing the man's legs; He begins with the heart, declaring, “Your sins are forgiven.” This reveals a profound truth: our deepest need isn't just for our circumstances to change, but for our hearts to be made whole. Sin is not just a list of bad choices—it's a condition that affects every part of us, separating us from God and distorting our motives, thoughts, and actions. No amount of good works or self-improvement can bridge the gap between us and a holy God. The standard isn't just being better than others; it's perfection, and none of us can reach it on our own. That's why Jesus came—not to give us a list of steps to climb up to God, but to come down to us, to take our place, and to offer forgiveness and new life as a gift.

A week of wood splitting, cooking, and treating a goat with hind leg paralysis.  Acorn gave the goat 30% chance of recovery at first, and danged if the nanny did not pull through.  Is almost 80% better now and for a goat whose rear right leg was totally free of tone and only a little muscle strength in her left rear leg, she is now standing and walking about.  Treated for goat polio one day then meningeal worm for 6 days.  Acorn does not believe the goat needs any more treatment.Hamburgers, strip steaks grilled and put in the freezer.  Cornbread baked and frozen as well.  Blind Hog has been splitting and stacking firewood.Annual cleaning of the barns is on the chore list...  Fun fun.  Chores are getting done., but maybe not a quickly.

This week, Scott takes a different approach — fewer files, more reflection. Amid chaos, tough negotiations, and constant bad news, he shares how The Power of Positive Thinking and the Winning Momentum methodology apply to both global events and business turnarounds.In this episode:• Why President Trump's first-phase peace deal between Hamas and Israel is a master class in negotiation and turnarounds.• How Scott Adams describes Trump's “reality distortion” as persuasion — and what leaders can learn from it.• Eric Trump's surprising comment: “It was an excellent example of the power of positive thinking.”• The connection between Norman Vincent Peale's 1952 classic The Power of Positive Thinking and the Trump family's mindset — and why Scott is revisiting the book today.• Lessons from Peale that align with Sinclair Range's Winning Momentum framework: recognizing “mental garbage,” replacing fear with focus, and manufacturing momentum through compounding wins.• Behind the scenes at Sinclair Range: weeks of chaos, collapsing deals, fraud discoveries, and constant bad news — and why Scott stopped reading negative updates.• The practical leadership takeaway:o Compress your “negative time” into a small daily window.o Focus the rest of your day on progress and value creation.o Find one thing to win at each day — because small wins compound into momentum.• How positivity, reframing, and focus bring order out of chaos — in business, leadership, and life.Quote of the Week:“You don't have to be relentlessly positive — but you must not be negative. Negativity creates fear. Fear creates paralysis. Paralysis creates more negativity.”Join the conversation:If your company is in transition — growing fast, facing distress, or doing deals — reach out. Sinclair Range exists to help you navigate chaos and create momentum.

Across America, flight cancelations and delays are affecting travel because of Trump's government shutdown. Air Traffic Controllers will not get paid if the shutdown continues much longer. The Department of Transportation reports an increase in air traffic controllers calling in sick since the shutdown started, though their union denies any coordinated work actions. The National Air Traffic Controllers Association says this highlights the ongoing issues of being critically staffed with unreliable equipment. Hundreds of Texas National Guard troops arrived in Illinois yesterday. Their presence heightens the showdown between Donald Trump and Illinois governor JB Pritzker, who says he neither needs nor wants National Guard intervention in his state. We welcome presidential historian and political analyst John Rothmann into the show to discuss. Belinda Waymouth is back with “It's the Planet, Stupid!” and this time she's brought a guest. Tom Ford with The Bay Foundation will join to talk about a conservation project to strengthen critical kelp forests that have been shrinking with alarming speed off the California coast.

In 1970, while playing football at Cornell University,Ken Kunken sustained a spinal cord injury that left him a quadriplegic. Despite this, he became the first quadriplegic to graduate from Cornell, later earningadvanced degrees from Cornell, Columbia, and a law degree from Hofstra University. Ken began his career at Abilities Inc., counseling and advocatingfor individuals with disabilities, before serving over 40 years as an Assistant District Attorney in NassauCounty, where he rose to Deputy Bureau Chief. He received numerous honors, including the Long IslandRehabilitation Association's “Rehabilitant of the Year,” the Thomas E. Ryan Jr. Award, the George M. Estabrook Distinguished Service Award, and induction intothe Susan M. Daniels Disability Mentoring Hall of Fame. His legacy is honored through awards in his name, including the Kenneth J. Kunken Award established in 2023 by the NassauCounty DA's Office. In 2023, he published his memoir, I Dream of Things That Never Were: The Ken Kunken Story. Beyond his professional impact, Ken is a devoted husband to Anna and father of triplet sons, Joey, Jimmy, and Timmy.Link to episode can be found here: #drdanamzallag, #drdanpodcast, #Happinessjourneywithdrdan,#ddanmotivation, #inspiringinterviews, #drdancbt, #drdantherapy,#drdancoaching, #drdanhappiness,  

In this powerful second conversation with Matt Blanchard, we dive even deeper into his remarkable journey of resilience, faith, and personal growth. Twice paralyzed and once caught in the grip of addiction, Matt's story is one of overcoming adversity with authenticity, community support, and unwavering faith. Matt opens up about how addiction recovery taught him the importance of self-love, why perspective can transform challenges into opportunities, and how faith reshaped his definition of success. He reminds us that true success isn't measured by money but by relationships, legacy, and the impact we leave on others.

Terry Haayema: When Consensus Becomes Paralysis—The Nemawashi Challenge For Agile Software Development Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "The problem I'm facing is 'too much consensus'... we talk, bounce ideas, but we don't get going." Terry shares his current coaching challenge in a Japanese company where their cultural practice of Nemawashi (consensus building) has become a barrier to progress. While working across the entire organization, he's discovered that quality is suffering because teams aren't clear about desired outcomes before starting work. The excessive focus on building consensus means initiatives bounce between stakeholders without ever gaining momentum. Terry explains how he's experimenting with delaying detailed refinement to build shared understanding as teams progress, rather than trying to achieve perfect consensus upfront. He uses the metaphor of flying a plane - pilots don't stick rigidly to flight plans but constantly make small course corrections based on real-time feedback. Self-reflection Question: In your organization, what well-intentioned practices have become obstacles to the very outcomes they were designed to achieve?

In this conversation, we close the villain series with the Invisible Destroyer—also known as The Nothing from The NeverEnding Story. This archetype represents the paralysis of possibility, where imagination and inspiration remain ungrounded, slowly eroding both the self and those around it. We explore how this villain shows up as addiction, avoidance, and endless questioning, and how its transformation into the Architect brings creativity into embodied form. Along the way, we unpack how this arc blends qualities of the Enneagram 5 and 6, why Radiohead may be its unofficial soundtrack, and what it really takes to move from disappearing into inertia to choosing life, creation, and presence.

Tonight's guest comes to us from New York State, Shiloh, sharing experiences that blur the line between the paranormal and the occult. In the woods, she once saw a man in flannel step behind a tree far too narrow to hide him and vanish. Later, she lay frozen beneath a shifting black mass that hovered over her bed for hours. Growing up within Pagan and Wiccan traditions, she also recalls rituals where “something” seemed to answer back, leaving her with questions about what had truly been summoned. This is a journey into fear, faith, and the unknown.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-351-beyond-the-veil/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Dr. Celine Gounder, Editor-at-Large, KFF Health News, explains how the U.S. vaccine enterprise could be damaged so swiftly by the Trump administration, with so little apparent resistance: it was a "shock and awe" blitz, while hesitation and fear dominated. "Silence was paralysis." It is too early to estimate the true scope of damage. The middle tier of professionals in government and scientific research has certainly paid a high price. While Secretary Kennedy's firing of CDC Director Monarez was a thunderclap, it remains to be seen if or when President Trump changes his view of the Secretary's performance. What lies ahead? Regional alliances of states setting policy on vaccines will be "the laboratories of public health." The Supreme Court may be called upon to revisit the balance between individual liberty versus public health. If pediatric hospitals are overrun with children suffering from dangerous vaccine-preventable illnesses, public outcry could escalate.  

From spinal paralysis to global healer, Dan Metcalfe's story is one you'll never forget. After surviving a catastrophic spinal injury and later a traumatic brain injury, Dan refused to accept a life of limitation. Instead, he pioneered the Total Balance Program—helping over 70,000 people worldwide reconnect their brain and body, break free from pain, and unlock their natural ability to heal. In this episode, Dan shares his unbelievable journey, the 7 Pillars of Natural Health, and how you can move from survival to thriving—no matter what you've been through.

We're revisiting our episode with Nora McInerny in honor of National Grief Awareness Day. Nora McInerny (Terrible, Thanks for Asking podcast, author of Bad Vibes Only) helps us build understanding around grief by taking us through her own grief journey. She discusses what her life was like before suffering extreme loss, what happened upon receiving her husband's terminal brain cancer diagnosis, and how she dealt with a miscarriage and the loss of her father and husband weeks apart. Nora and Mayim consider the struggle of dealing with people's expectations of your feelings during mourning periods, why it may be difficult to relate to people who are moving through grief, and the importance of allowing oneself time to truly grieve. They discuss reasons why mourning is so specific and individualistic, productivity associated with grief, and the benefits of finding a support group. Mayim breaks down the typical grief timeline, its physical symptoms, and its potential impact on every area of one's life.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Jacob K. Dey, M.D. Bell's Palsy is the most common cause of 7th cranial nerve dysfunction and clinically, it has a relatively abrupt onset resulting in unilateral facial paralysis. Fortunately, the majority of patients recover completely without treatment. Unfortunately, in some cases, the facial paralysis is persistent, and surgical intervention may be indicated to help restore facial symmetry. When do patients reach maximum improvement in their facial asymmetry? What is facial synkinesis? What are the various surgical options and how is it determined which one is best for the patient? The topic for this podcast is “Correcting Facial Paralysis Associated with Bell's Palsy” and these are some of the questions I'll be asking my guest, facial plastic surgeon, Jacob K. Dey, M.D., from the Division of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts
