Podcasts about patterns

Most trauma has a place you can avoid. Medical trauma lives inside your body, so there is nowhere to go. Dr. Aimie sits down with Dr. James Jackson for the second half of their conversation on medical trauma. What will surprise you is how much recovery is available while the symptoms are still present. This is Part 2 of a two part conversation. Part 1 is here. ➡ Full show notes + resources: https://bit.ly/BOT190 Dr. Jackson works with people recovering after critical illness, and he is direct about something most clinicians avoid saying. Patients have been taught that recovery means every symptom is erased. That standard fails most bodies. He offers a different measure, along with the markers that actually move. Dr. Aimie also shares why she left general surgery residency after four years, and the one question she started asking her patients that changed everything about how she practiced.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: 02:55 — Why do you carry the source of a medical trauma with you? 05:35 — What is acceptance and commitment therapy? 06:37 — How can you be fine right now? 07:09 — Why did Dr. Aimie leave general surgery residency? 08:17 — What happens when you ask a patient what their diagnosis means to them? 11:40 — Why should no one else decide what counts as a big trauma? 13:33 — Why is overselling recovery a problem? 14:46 — What does a rich recovery actually look like? 15:32 — What are the objective markers that recovery is happening? 17:02 — How should we talk about post-traumatic growth? 20:22 — Why can no one recover from medical trauma alone?   "If the trauma happened in your body, you're carrying that around. You're carrying it around, and you can't avoid it. It's always there." — Dr. James Jackson   If you have quietly decided you are not recovering because something still hurts, this episode is for you.   RESOURCES: Take the free 2-Minute Assessment for Discovering Your Pattern of Stored Trauma.

Ohio Congressman Max Miller has denied allegations that he abused his ex-wife and their young daughter. Evidence that he has tried to marshal in his own defense has sparked conversations about abuse: specifically, why victims might behave in a certain way and why abusers might behave in a certain way. Our guests explore it: Lisa Nolan, director of prevention education at Willow Domestic Violence Center Jerri Lynn Sparks, former congressional press secretary and author of "Surviving Madmen"

What should you do when you discover your own daughter is the one hurting someone else?  No parent wants to receive the phone call, text message, or conversation revealing that their child has been unkind—or worse, has developed a pattern of bullying another girl. While those moments can stir embarrassment, defensiveness, or even shame, they also present a powerful opportunity for discipleship. In this episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose encourage Christian parents to respond with courage, humility, and a heart committed to both truth and restoration.  Continuing the Raising Godly Girls back-to-school series on bullying, Rachael and Natalie discuss the important distinction between isolated unkindness and repeated bullying behavior, why secrecy allows harmful patterns to grow, and how parents can lovingly guide a daughter toward confession, repentance, and reconciliation. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, listeners are reminded that telling the truth isn't an act of betrayal—it's often the very first step toward healing for everyone involved.  The conversation also offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for parents navigating these difficult situations, including acknowledging the hurt caused, praying for wisdom and discernment, understanding the full scope of the behavior, involving the appropriate adults, and encouraging a daughter to take responsibility for her actions. Rather than minimizing or excusing sinful behavior, Christian parents have the privilege of demonstrating God's mercy by helping their daughters walk the path of genuine repentance and lasting restoration.  If you've ever wondered how to respond when your daughter makes a poor choice, this episode offers hope-filled encouragement that God doesn't waste our parenting challenges. Even difficult conversations can become opportunities to point our girls toward the transforming grace of Jesus Christ.    Three Things to Consider:  Address harmful behavior with honesty and grace. Accountability is an act of love that points your daughter toward lasting heart transformation.  Pray for wisdom before responding. Ask God to help you see the full situation clearly and guide your daughter with both truth and compassion.  Pursue restoration, not simply consequences. Genuine confession, repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation often take time, but they reflect the heart of the Gospel.    Scriptures Referenced:  Genesis 1:27  Ephesians 4:15  Ephesians 4:29–32  Colossians 3:12–14  James 5:16  Proverbs 28:13  Matthew 18:15–17  Galatians 6:1    Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.      Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.   

Achilles tendon ruptures have historically been an injury of 40-50 year olds. The recent uptick in Achilles ruptures in younger athletes has been a point of concern in the Sports Medicine community, particularly when some of the NBA's brightest stars have sustained this devastating injury in their 20-30s. Dr. Nirav Pandya, MD, Pediatric Sports Medicine Specialist from UCSF joins us to discuss his group's findings as well as the viral response to his study.

Last month a series of attacks on transgender women in Bogor, sent a chill through a community for whom this kind of violence is increasingly normal. The recent attacks have coincided the release of the full text of Presidential Regulation No. 111 of 2025 concerning the 2025-2029 General Policy for National Defense, classifying the spread of LGBTQI+ culture as a ‘non-military' threat to the state, placing it within the same category as terrorism, separatism and radicalism. A recent Human Rights Watch report quoted the chairperson of LGBTQI+ advocacy organisation, Arus Pelangi, Nono Sugiono, as saying, “Patterns of hate based on gender identity and sexual orientation are building year on year.” So, what forms does this ‘pattern of hatred' take, how is the LGBTQI+ community coping and ultimately, why do morality issues have such social currency in Indonesia? In this week's episode, Jemma chats with Dania Joedo, a musician and human rights activist based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Dania works with a variety of NGOs such as Jakarta Legal Aid, Omah Munir, New Naratif, ASEAN Parliamentarians for Human Rights, YAPPIKA ActionAid, and Indonesia Legal Aid Foundation. With her band, Tashoora, Dania makes music that aims to raise awareness about issues that are underrepresented today. In 2026, the Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Jemma Purdey from the Australia-Indonesia Centre, Dr Jacqui Baker from Murdoch University, Dr Elisabeth Kramer from the University of New South Wales, Tito Ambyo from RMIT and Dr Clara Siagian from University College, London.

What if the habits and patterns you hate most about yourself aren't trying to hurt you—but actually protect you?In this episode of Patterns of Power, Craig Perra sits down with Anat Peri, inner child expert, emotional intelligence speaker, and founder of Training Camp for the Soul, to explore how childhood experiences can shape the patterns we carry into adulthood.They dive into people pleasing, overachieving, avoidance, addiction, nervous system regulation, inner child work, and self-sabotage—and why fighting these patterns often doesn't create lasting change.You'll discover why your protective patterns developed, how your nervous system influences your reactions, the impact of mother and father wounds, and Anat's five stages for healing and creating lasting transformation.If you've ever wondered why you know better but still repeat the same patterns, this conversation could completely change the way you understand yourself.Connect with Anat Peri

Wayne Penello, president and chief executive officer at NextGen EMP, says he expects the Standard & Poor's 500 to double in the next five years, in the "greatest bull market we have seen in 60 to 80 years," though he acknowledges that this kind of rise ultimately will end in a bubble. He thinks the market can rally, with only modest to moderate corrections, before it reaches that crescendo, and says investors should be watching for the point where artificial intelligence is over-saturating the market to where prices collapse to see when that is likely to happen. Penello, a Wall Street veteran whose firm recently opened the Efficient Market Portfolio Plus ETF — a long-short fund that tries to balance risks by leaning into or away from market sectors, says he is leaning into semiconductors, particularly when the market sorus on them, and is going light or away from consumer discretionary stocks and utilities. Olivia Valdes, senior researcher at the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, updates us on the group's study of financial frauds. FINRA recently released "Patterns in Fraud Awareness: What Comes to Mind When Americans Think About Financial Fraud," which asked people to name the common schemes and tactics fraudsters use, and found that even identity-based crimes — the thievery that most Americans are aware of and cautious about — was top of mind for only half of the population. Valdes says this helps to explain how even savvy consumers get taken in by schemes, as fraud losses in the U.S. now run at nearly $200 billion per year.  In the Money Life Market Call, Stefan Grater, portfolio manager overseeing the domestic and international value strategies at Eldred Rock Partners, discusses his disciplined, concentrated approach to value investing.

BUFFALO, NY — August 12, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging on July 27, 2026, titled “Transcriptomic aging clock analysis identifies key genes in opioid dependence.” The study was led by first author Hai Duc Nguyen from the Division of Microbiology, Tulane National Biomedical Research Center, Tulane University. The corresponding author is Woong-Ki Kim, who is affiliated with the Division of Microbiology, Tulane National Biomedical Research Center, Tulane University, and the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Tulane University School of Medicine. Opioid dependence is a chronic and relapsing condition associated with substantial health and societal burdens. Chronic opioid exposure can affect neuronal signaling, immune function, metabolism, and other biological processes, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying dependence remain incompletely understood. Increasing evidence also suggests that substance use disorders may be associated with molecular changes related to aging, raising questions about how chronic opioid exposure interacts with age-dependent processes in the brain. To investigate these relationships, the researchers conducted an in silico study integrating three complementary approaches: RNA sequencing-based transcriptomic profiling, transcriptomic aging-clock modeling, and analysis of previously published genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The transcriptomic analysis used a publicly available brain RNA-seq dataset containing 42 samples—21 healthy controls and 21 individuals with opioid dependence—while the genetic analysis incorporated findings from six independent GWAS.

— What if many of the struggles we face today—our relationships, self-doubt, anxiety, or the ways we cope with life's challenges—are rooted in emotional patterns that began long before we were aware of them? As children, we all have fundamental emotional needs, and when those needs go unmet, we often develop beliefs and protective strategies that help us survive but may no longer serve us as adults. In today's conversation, we'll explore the science of Schema Therapy and how understanding these deeply ingrained patterns can help us heal childhood wounds, cultivate self-compassion, build healthier relationships, and strengthen what therapists call our "Healthy Adult"—the part of us that can respond to life with wisdom, resilience, and love. Valeria sits with Dr. Leslie Muetzelfeldt  — She is a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and she works with adults in private practice in Central London.   Her background includes neuropsychology, Intensive Care/ Major Trauma and Adult Mental Health. Dr Muetzelfeldt employs an integrative, person-centred approach using Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness and EMDR. Her warm and empathetic approach aims to help adults develop self-compassion and healthier relationships by processing childhood traumas, building emotional resilience, and an ability to tolerate uncertainty.  Learn more about Dr. Leslie Muetzelfeldt and her work!

Toxic relationship dynamics can be painful, frustrating, and emotionally exhausting. But what if some of the most important patterns affecting those relationships are happening beneath the surface? In this episode, Brandy shares three powerful insights to help you look at toxic relationship patterns differently—and begin recognizing what may need to shift at a deeper level. Because sometimes the obvious problem is only part of the story. There may also be underlying feelings of powerlessness, rejection, guilt, insecurity, sensitivity, or emotional reactiveness that continue influencing the way a relationship feels and unfolds. In this episode, you will discover: Three hidden emotional patterns that may be affecting difficult relationships Why fear of rejection or abandonment can create feelings of powerlessness How emotional reactiveness can unintentionally keep conflict going Why feeling deserving of better can be an important part of creating change The important difference between anger and genuine strength Why using anger to access your power can create additional problems How confidence, wisdom, and self-worth can help create a healthier internal shift Why transforming yourself can sometimes change the entire relationship dynamic This is not about overlooking harmful behavior, abandoning healthy boundaries, or pretending painful experiences did not happen. Sometimes, removing a person from your life is absolutely necessary. But removing a person and transforming the emotional pattern are not always the same thing. When you begin identifying what is truly underneath the pattern, you may be able to create a much deeper level of healing, freedom, strength, and change.

Ep.109- How breathing patterns impact digestion and overall health with Abby Stewart by Erin Kenney, MS, RD, LDN, HCP

When does unkind behavior cross the line into bullying—and how can Christian parents respond with both wisdom and grace?  As a new school year begins, many parents wonder how to prepare their daughters for the complex social dynamics they'll inevitably encounter. While every unkind comment isn't bullying, repeated patterns of intimidation, exclusion, or harm can leave lasting wounds if left unaddressed. In this timely episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose equip Christian parents to recognize the difference between everyday conflict and true bullying—and to respond with confidence rooted in a Biblical Worldview.  Together, Rachael and Natalie explore why every person deserves dignity as an image-bearer of God, how bullying often takes shape through repeated relational patterns, and why middle school girls are especially vulnerable to navigating unhealthy peer dynamics and cyberbullying. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, parents are also encouraged to recognize the warning signs of unhealthy friendships and help their daughters identify red flags before harmful patterns become deeply rooted.  The conversation offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for families walking through bullying, including how to validate a daughter's pain without allowing her to embrace a victim identity, pray for wisdom and discernment, assess the situation carefully, involve trusted adults when necessary, and advocate courageously while still pursuing Biblical forgiveness when appropriate. Throughout the episode, listeners are reminded that protecting a daughter and extending Christlike grace are not opposing ideas—they can faithfully coexist.  Whether your daughter attends public school, private school, homeschool, or a co-op, this back-to-school conversation will equip you to foster open communication, strengthen her confidence in Christ, and help her build healthy friendships grounded in truth, loyalty, and love.    Three Things to Consider:  Learn to distinguish between isolated unkindness and ongoing bullying. Patterns of repeated harm require thoughtful, proactive intervention.  Create a safe place for your daughter to share her experiences. Listen carefully, ask wise questions, and seek God's guidance before responding.  Advocate for your daughter with courage while modeling biblical forgiveness, trusting that God can bring healing, wisdom, and restoration even after painful experiences.    Scriptures Referenced:  Genesis 1:27  Proverbs 17:17  Ecclesiastes 4:12  Romans 12:18  Matthew 5:9  Ephesians 4:29–32  Colossians 3:12–14    Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.      Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.   

In this episode, I'm sharing three sneaky patterns I see keeping women from moving forward with their weight loss, health, mindset, and bigger goals. We'll talk about why you may be waiting for something to happen before you really go after what you want... and why learning to move forward even when you don't feel completely ready can change everything.Whether you want to lose weight, stop emotional eating, become more consistent, feel stronger, or simply create a life you're more excited about... this episode will help you see where you may be unintentionally holding yourself back. You don't need the perfect mindset, perfect circumstances, or perfect timing.You can start becoming her now.Enjoy!CourtneyGrab a free copy of my Playbook "Take Control of Your Evening Eating" here: https://mailchi.mp/43700070f134/playbookCurrently, I work with women privately and in my monthly membership.  Click HERE to head to my website to learn more.

They also debate whether AI tools like Claude or Copilot deserve co-author credit on commits, gripe about agent-only coding workflows that skip linting and hide what's actually happening, and wrap up looking at new platform features like the navigation API and a proposed CSS-based routing approach using @route and @view-transition.

Erin and Sasha explore how habits are formed, where they come from, and why we can find ourselves repeating the same patterns—even when we genuinely want to stop.We look at the roots of addiction, the various traumas we endure, and how they can keep our inner child frozen and stuck in a loop. We also discuss what happens when we shift from asking, “What am I lacking that keeps me stuck?” to “What resources do I already have, and how can I optimize them?”This is a conversation about self-awareness, healing, resilience, and the courage to step out of victim mentality. We invite you to call your power back from the people, experiences, and stories you've given it to—and learn how to protect that power.This episode is about recognizing that we may have far more capacity, wisdom, and strength within us than we think.Whether you're navigating change, letting go of an old version of yourself, or simply trying to take one small step forward, reconnect with what's already within you—and discover what's possible when you do.Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

#442 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Julie Ryan about her intuitive healing work, medical scanning, spirit communication, and the belief that everyone had intuitive abilities that could be reopened and developed. Julie shared her perspective on humanity's energetic shift, explaining that the Earth's frequency was changing toward a more love-centered reality while some old beliefs and stagnant energies still remained. She also explored the soul's journey, saying that people came into life to create, experience, and view recurring patterns from different perspectives across lifetimes.  The conversation also covered Julie's view that energy leaks preceded medical conditions and were often caused by emotional events from this life or past lives, while true healing involved the body, spirit, energy work, and complementary care working together. By the end, Julie discussed DNA resequencing, the wisdom of the body, and her book Angelic Attendants, which described how angels, deceased loved ones, and pets surrounded people during the transition from life to spirit. ====================  Guy's Official Partners  The DNA Company – Get 10% Off https://thednacompany.com/letitinpodcast  FLFE – 2 Week Free Trial (No Credit Card Required) https://www.flfe.net/rp-affiliates.php?p=LiveInFlow&w=TryFLFEfree ====================  Key Points Discussed:  (00:00) - Medical Intuitive Shares Hidden Cause Behind Illness, Pain and Recurring Life Patterns!

In this bonus episode Andrea Samadi introduces the Predictable Performance System, a practical roadmap from her Brain's Operating System. She shows how measuring patterns—not chasing daily scores—plus consistent movement and targeted recovery behaviors create reliable adaptations and better performance over time. Andrea shares two real-world experiments (including a nine-day green recovery streak), five clear steps—measure, move, recover, adapt, perform—and a simple 7-day challenge to help you discover the single habit that unlocks more consistent results. On BONUS EPISODE 2, we will cover: Why high performance isn't about being “green” every day (using a wearable device) What nearly 2,000 recovery scores taught me about consistency and performance Why your daily inputs matter more than any single recovery score How I reached a personal best of 9 green recoveries in a row What happened when hard training caused my recovery to drop—and why that wasn't failure How another WHOOP user improved his recovery by identifying one key gap: hydration How to find your own gap in sleep, hydration, stress, movement, training load, or recovery The Predictable Performance System™: Measure → Move → Recover → Adapt → Perform → Repeat Why recovery is the bridge between today's effort and tomorrow's capacity How to create your own 7-Day Predictable Performance Experiment The key question to ask yourself: “What is the one missing input that could unlock my next level of performance?” The goal: Find your gap. Uncover your recipe. Build the system that works for you. BONUS EPISODE 2 The Predictable Performance System™ How Small Daily Inputs Create Better Recovery, Adaptation and More Consistent Results WELCOME BACK Welcome back to the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we explore how understanding the brain can help us create measurable improvements in our well-being, achievement, leadership, productivity, and results. I'm Andrea Samadi, and over the past several months, we've been building something much bigger than a collection of interviews. We've been building what I call The Brain's Operating System—a roadmap for understanding how our brain and body work together to create optimal human performance. Before we jump into today's second Bonus Episode, let's quickly remember where we've been. PHASE 1 — REGULATION & SAFETY Everything begins with regulation. Before the brain can learn, perform, or grow, it first needs the biological conditions that support safety and stability. In Phase 1, we explored sleep, stress regulation, trauma, resilience and the nervous system. The lesson was simple: Regulation creates the conditions for growth. PHASE 2 — NEUROCHEMISTRY & MOTIVATION Then we asked: What moves us into action? We explored dopamine, beliefs, motivation, habits, attention and sustained effort. We learned that motivation isn't simply about willpower. Our brain is continually learning: What's worth pursuing? What should I repeat? Where should I invest my energy with? Phase 2 gave us some direction. PHASE 3 — MOVEMENT, LEARNING & COGNITION And now we're deep inside Phase 3. This is where movement becomes much more than exercise. Movement activates the brain. It supports attention. Learning. Memory. Metabolism. And when movement is paired with adequate recovery, something important happens: Adaptation. That's where our system begins to change. So the basic sequence we've been studying is: Movement → Recovery → Adaptation → Performance. But while studying this process, another question kept coming back to me. Why do some people consistently improve...while others feel like they're starting over every Monday and they are searching for the right formula. That question led me to today's framework: THE PREDICTABLE PERFORMANCE SYSTEM™ And this Bonus Episode is where I want to put the science into action. Throughout The Brain's Operating System, these Bonus Episodes will give me an opportunity to step away from the interviews and show you what happens when I apply what we're learning to my own life. I'll share the experiments. The data. What worked. What didn't. And most importantly... what we can learn from it, so we can ALL apply this information to our own lives. Because neuroscience becomes much more useful when we can turn what we know into something we can actually do. THE QUESTION THAT STARTED THIS EXPERIMENT Over the past five years, I've tracked close to 2,000 recovery scores using WHOOP (wearable device). And recently something happened that surprised me. I recorded nine green recoveries in a row (which meant for 9 days in a row, I had mastered recovery (my body's ability to take on strain and perform). This recovery score is calculated overnight using my RHR, HRV, RR, SpO2 (blood O2) and skin temperature. Factors like strain, stress and lifestyle choices affect this Recovery Score. That was a personal record. For years, I could put together a few strong days. Sometimes even a strong week. My record for years was 7 days in a row. But eventually something would interrupt the pattern. I'd train too hard. Sleep poorly. Travel. Get busy. Or simply fail to give myself enough time to recover. So when I reached nine consecutive green recoveries, instead of just celebrating the streak, I became curious. I asked: What changed? Because I wasn't on vacation. My work hadn't disappeared. I was still recording the podcast. Still exercising. Still traveling. Waking up early. Eating the same diet. In those green days most of the days I avoided alcohol (something I have learned from measuring everything I ingest—this will automatically tank my recovery score) but I did have one drink a couple of these days and still managed to keep a green score. Something that was highly unusual. I kept wondering what was I doing differently. Life hadn't suddenly become easy. So what was different? I went back through my data. And I stopped looking at individual scores. Instead, I started looking for patterns. That distinction changed everything. DON'T CHASE THE SCORE. STUDY THE PATTERN. When I first started tracking recovery, I'd look at each morning individually. Green? Great. Yellow? What did I do wrong? Red? I must have done something terribly wrong!   Looking at the patterns, I did learn that after a 4-hour hike, even one alcoholic drink will kick my recovery score into the red unrecovered zone. When you push your body hard, it's just not worth it to ingest a neuro-toxin. At least for me, it's not worth it. We are all different, and that's why measuring your own data is a valuable activity. What tanks my score, might not tank yours. Now I'm wondering what happens repeatedly? What tends to happen before my strongest recoveries? What happens before my worst ones? (the recipe was beyond clear here). What habits disappear when my recovery starts declining? And which habits consistently appear when it improves? That's where the story became much clearer. It wasn't one workout. It wasn't one supplement. It wasn't one perfect night's sleep. And it definitely wasn't motivation. It was the accumulation of small behaviors being repeated consistently. And that led me to one of the most important lessons from this entire experiment: The recovery score doesn't create the result. The behaviors that happened before the recovery score create the conditions for the result. I learned my recipe to create a RED recovery, and how to create a GREEN. The wearable device simply gives us feedback on how well we are doing with our recipe for success. THE DATA TELLS TWO STORIES When I looked at the data, I realized I actually had two experiments happening. The first was mine. I had the recipe for how to recover, and how to tank my score. The second belonged to another WHOOP user. And together, they revealed something much more interesting than either story alone. STORY ONE — MY DATA When I zoomed out across 6 months, my average recovery was around 58%. That's real life. There were excellent weeks. There were difficult weeks. Travel. When I was away internationally, sometimes without internet, the data didn't record correctly, but this is a good picture of what my scores look like. Work. Training. Stress. Vacations. Life happens. But recently that monthly average climbed to approximately 63%—an 11% improvement over the month before. For me, that mattered. Historically, when my monthly recovery averages climbed substantially, it was often because I had removed myself from normal life. Maybe I was on vacation. Maybe I was completely unplugged. But this time I wasn't. I was working. Training. Recording. Traveling. Living normal life. Life didn't become easier. My daily system became more consistent. And eventually that consistency produced something I'd never seen before: Nine green recoveries in a row. But here's what happened next. If you look at the graph…I just went about life as usual. I trained hard. My recovery dropped. And that became perhaps an even more important part of the experiment. Because this time I didn't panic. I didn't interpret one lower score as failure. I simply returned to the consistent behaviors that had been working in my GREEN streak. Sleep. Hydration. Movement. Stress management. Recovery time. And within a few days, the stronger recovery scores returned. That taught me something important: Predictable performance does NOT mean perfect performance. It means that you've got to find a system you know how to return to. My GREEN scores are now predictable. STORY TWO — FIND THE LEVER Around the same time, another WHOOP user turned to me and asked “why am I stuck in RED (unrecovered) everyday?” His pattern looked completely different. His monthly recovery average was around 41%. Lots of yellow. Lots of red. And very little improvement. Instead of randomly changing everything, we looked at the inputs. Sleep. Stress. Training load. Recovery time. Hydration. And one variable stood out to me. Hydration. So rather than redesigning his entire life, we focused on consistently improving that one behavior. When I say he improved hydration, we increased not just water, but we added an electrolyte drink (Liquid IV sugar free[i]) to his water to replenish minerals like sodium and potassium that he was losing from sweating in the 115 degree weather we are experiencing at the moment in AZ. Then we watched the data. His recovery pattern improved. More yellows appeared. His averages increased. And his recovery became more consistent. Today I asked him what he's noticed with this one change, and he let me know that his scores have been creeping up slowly. No green scores yet, but he's high yellow, which shows me that he's cracking his recovery recipe. Now, that doesn't mean hydration is the magic answer for everyone. That's not the lesson. The lesson is: Find YOUR lever. For one person, it might be hydration. For someone else, it might be sleep. Alcohol. Stress. Training volume. Late-night eating. Travel. Or simply not allowing enough recovery between difficult training sessions. Your job isn't to copy someone else's system perfectly. Your job is to use feedback to discover what matters most for you. Find your gap in your recovery system and you unlock more consistent, predictable performance. TAKEAWAY #1 STOP GUESSING. START MEASURING. You cannot recognize a pattern you aren't observing. And you don't need WHOOP to do this. Just find what tool works best for you. You could track five simple things each morning: Sleep How well did I sleep? Energy How energetic do I feel? Stress How stressed or regulated do I feel? Movement What did I do yesterday? Recovery behaviors Did I hydrate, recover and give my body what it needed? Give each category a simple score out of 10. Then look at the entire week. Not  just one day. TIP TO IMPLEMENT: For the next seven days, spend 30 seconds each morning recording: Hours of sleep Energy from 1–10 Stress from 1–10 Yesterday's movement One recovery behavior Don't change anything yet. First, collect information. Look for patterns before looking for the solution. THE BIG REALIZATION As I studied both experiments, the framework became obvious. Recovery isn't something that simply happens to us. There are many things we can't control. But every day we can influence the probability of recovering well. Our choices create patterns. Patterns create trends. Trends influence adaptation. And over enough time... those adaptations influence performance. Which brings us to the system. THE PREDICTABLE PERFORMANCE SYSTEM™ There are five steps. STEP 1 — MEASURE Awareness comes first. Track enough information to recognize trends. But remember: The goal isn't to become obsessed with data. (I'm borderline obsessed with mine). The goal is to use data to make better decisions. ASK YOURSELF: What's improving? What did I do to get this improvement? Write it down. What's declining? What did I do to tank my score? Write it down. And what repeatedly happens before each pattern? Learn your recovery recipe. What works for you? What does not work? TIP: Look at your weekly average instead of judging yourself by one day. One bad night doesn't define your health. One hard workout doesn't destroy your fitness. One red recovery doesn't erase your progress. Look for the trend. Learn what your personal recipe for success is. STEP 2 — MOVE Movement is the input. This is where Phase 3 begins. Movement challenges the system. We don't want to aim for a month of all green or high recoveries, because then we aren't challenging our system. Movement activates the brain and body and provides the stimulus from which adaptation can occur. But movement doesn't always mean crushing yourself in the gym. It might mean: Walking. Strength training. Hiking. Mobility. Cycling. Running. Playing a sport. Or simply interrupting long periods of sitting. TIP TO IMPLEMENT: Ask yourself each morning: "How will I move today?" Don't leave movement to chance. Put something on the calendar. Even a 20-minute walk counts. Consistency matters. STEP 3 — RECOVER This is the step I underestimated for years. I understood effort. I understood discipline. I understood training. But I didn't fully appreciate that the work isn't complete when the workout ends. The brain and body still have to process the stimulus. So recovery becomes an active part of the performance system. Protect sleep. Hydrate. Manage stress. Build recovery into the schedule. And learn when not to push. TIP TO IMPLEMENT: Create what I call your Recovery Minimums. Choose three behaviors that you protect even during busy weeks. For example: My Recovery Minimums ✓ Consistent sleep (going to bed and waking up at the same time) ✓ Daily hydration (I use liquid IV in the day and LMNT hot chocolate at night) ✓ Daily movement (I walk every morning, hike on the weekends, fit in gym workouts and strength training) to keep movement going. ✓ Stress regulation (always a work in progress, but breath work is my current way to manage stress) ✓ Time for recovery (I stack meditation and infrared sauna use together to save time). Your list may look different. But decide what your minimums are before life gets busy and you aren't putting time into recovery. STEP 4 — ADAPT This is the part we usually can't see. And it's one of the reasons people quit too early. Adaptation happens behind the scenes. You train. You recover. And your system responds. Over time, movement becomes easier. Your capacity expands. Your cardiovascular system becomes more efficient. Skills become more automatic. Your tolerance for challenge increases. Then one day... something that once felt difficult feels normal. TIP TO IMPLEMENT: Don't only measure outcomes. Look for evidence of adaptation. Ask: Is this workout getting easier? Am I recovering faster? Is my resting heart rate trending differently? Am I sleeping better? Look for how many wakes you have each night. Can I handle more work without feeling depleted? Is my concentration improving? Am I stronger? Do I have more energy? Those are clues that the system is adapting.   STEP 5 — PERFORM This is where most people want to start. Results. Achievement. The High Performance. But performance isn't Step One. It's Step Five. First we provide the stimulus. We move. Then we recover. Then we adapt. And eventually... performance becomes evidence that the earlier steps worked. You will notice you can sit longer, stay focused on one task, and see tasks through to completion. This changes the question from: "How can I perform better today?" to: "What can I do today that makes better performance more likely tomorrow?" That's a very different way of thinking. TAKEAWAY #2 DON'T TRY TO FIX EVERYTHING. One of the most useful things we learned from the second recovery experiment was that sometimes one behavior acts as a bottleneck. For the person with the low recovery score, hydration appeared to be an important lever. Stick to changing ONE thing at a time. When I first saw his HRV, I wanted to go there, but we started with hydration. So here's something you can try. Look at your own patterns and ask: "What is the ONE behavior that would make everything else work better?" Maybe it's getting to bed earlier. Maybe it's drinking more water. Maybe it's moving every day. Maybe it's reducing alcohol. Maybe it's taking a recovery day. Maybe it's managing evening stress. Start there. TIP: Run a seven-day experiment. Change one variable. Keep everything else reasonably consistent. Track what happens. Then evaluate. Don't guess. Test. This has been the most eye-opening part of finding my own personal recipe for high performance. Once you uncover yours, you can create your own predictable formula for high performance.   TAKEAWAY #3 CREATE A BASELINE YOU CAN RETURN TO. One of the biggest changes in my thinking came after the nine-green streak ended. My recovery dropped after hard training. But I knew what to do. I returned to the system. That's resilience. Not maintaining perfect conditions forever. But knowing how to return to your baseline when life knocks you away from it. Ask yourself: "When everything gets busy, what behaviors bring me back?" Write them down. That becomes your reset protocol. That's how I was able to create high recoveries the past few days making my monthly recovery a 16% increase over last month. TAKEAWAY #4 RECOVERY IS THE BRIDGE While developing this framework, I kept seeing the same image in my mind. A bridge. On one side is today's effort. On the other side is tomorrow's capability. Recovery is the bridge connecting the two. Without sufficient recovery, today's effort may never fully become tomorrow's capacity. With recovery, we give the brain and body an opportunity to adapt. Today's habits create the conditions for today's recovery. Recovery supports tomorrow's adaptation. Adaptation creates future capacity. And expanded capacity improves performance. That's the system. YOUR 7-DAY PREDICTABLE PERFORMANCE EXPERIMENT Here's your action step from today's episode. For the next seven days: MEASURE Track sleep, energy, stress and how overall recovered you feel each day. If you don't have a device to do this, just rank yourself on a scale of 0-10. MOVE Do something intentional every day. RECOVER Protect the recovery behaviors you've identified as most important. Mine are daily meditation, journaling, hydration, breath work and sauna use. LOOK FOR ADAPTATION Notice what begins becoming easier or more consistent. Where do you feel stronger? REVIEW YOUR PERFORMANCE At the end of seven days, ask: What improved? What got worse? What behavior had the biggest effect? What should I repeat next week? That's it. You're not trying to create a perfect week. You're trying to learn how your own system works. I don't know what your recipe for high performance will look like, but once you've got this recipe, your life will never be the same. THE BIG TAKEAWAY After nearly 2,000 recovery scores, here's what I believe matters most. Don't chase the score. Chase the behaviors that create the score. (Notice what they are—write them down). Don't chase one perfect workout. Build consistency. Don't panic when the data drops. Investigate. Don't change ten things at once. Find the lever. And above all... don't confuse effort with adaptation. Sometimes the thing that moves us forward isn't doing more. It's allowing the work we've already done to become part of us. The goal isn't perfect recovery. The goal isn't nine green days (while I've got my eye on how I can make this 10)… The goal isn't controlling every variable in our lives. The goal is to create a system that makes better outcomes more likely. Better days become better weeks. Better weeks become better months. And over enough time... what once felt difficult can become your new normal. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude BONUS EPISODE 2: Find the Gap—How Recovery Unlocks Predictable Performance, here's where we are in The Brain's Operating System. Phase 1 taught us to regulate. Before we can learn, perform, or grow, we need the biological conditions that support safety and stability. Phase 2 taught us what drives us to act. We explored motivation, dopamine, beliefs, attention, and the internal chemistry that moves us toward a goal. And now... Phase 3 is teaching us how we change. We move. We create a stimulus. We recover. The brain and body adapt. Our capacity expands. And eventually, that adaptation shows up as better performance. That's why today's framework matters. Because when performance feels inconsistent, the answer isn't always to work harder. Sometimes we need to ask: Where is the gap in my system? Is it movement? Sleep? Hydration? Stress? Recovery time? Consistency? Because when we can identify the gap, we can begin to change the input. And when we change the input consistently... we create new conditions for adaptation. That's how performance begins to change. So remember the sequence: Measure. Move. Recover. Adapt. Perform. And then repeat. Because performance isn't a finish line. It's feedback from the system you're building.   When we complete Phase 3, we'll soon move into Phase 4—Connection, Emotion & Social Intelligence, where another layer enters the system: Other people. Relationships. Emotion. Trust. Communication. Empathy. Leadership. And then in Phase 5—Integration & Human Performance, we'll bring everything together: Regulation. Motivation. Movement. Recovery. Emotion. Relationships. Learning. Purpose. And performance. Because ultimately, no system works in isolation. Human performance is the result of all of these systems working together. FINAL TAKEAWAY If there's one idea I hope you remember from today's episode, it's this: Don't just chase the outcome. Study the system producing it. If your results aren't where you want them to be... find the gap. Because the gap may not be in your effort. It may be in your recovery. And when you find the gap in your recovery system... you unlock your next level of adaptation, capacity, and performance. Thank you for joining me for this second Bonus Episode. If today's framework helped connect the dots for you, I'd love to hear what you discover. What's the one habit that has the greatest impact on your recovery and performance? Sleep? Movement? Hydration? Stress management? Recovery time? And if you try the 7-Day Predictable Performance Experiment, pay attention to what your own data teaches you. Not whether every day is perfect. But what patterns begin to emerge. Until next time... Keep measuring. Keep moving. Keep recovering. Give your brain and body time to adapt. And keep building the systems that make better performance more predictable. Have an incredible week and we'll see you on EP 405 where we revisit Dr. Kristen Holmes and dive deep into more ways to improve our recovery., RESOURCES:   Phase 1: Regulation & Safety The Foundation Core Question: Is the nervous system safe enough to learn? Everything begins with regulation. Before we can focus, learn, lead, or perform, the brain first asks one fundamental question: Am I safe? Throughout Phase 1, our guests showed us that regulation isn't simply about reducing stress—it's about creating the biological conditions that allow the brain to learn, adapt, and thrive. Together we explored: Baland Jalal – how sleep, curiosity, imagination, and creativity prepare the brain for learning. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/hypnagogic-genius-capture-your-best-ideas-at-the-edge-of-sleep/ Dr. Bruce Perry – why regulation, rhythm, and relationships form the foundation of every healthy nervous system.  https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/safety-first-why-a-regulated-brain-is-the-key-to-learning/ Dr. Sui Wong – how lifestyle medicine and autonomic balance build lifelong brain resilience. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/your-eyes-the-brain-s-early-warning-system/ Rohan Dixit – how heart rate variability gives us real-time feedback on our ability to regulate stress. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/breathe-to-reset-how-hrv-tech-reveals-hidden-stress/ Dr. Kristen Holmes – how recovery metrics reveal our physiological readiness to perform. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/kristen-holmes-from-whoopcom-on-unlocking-a-better-you-measuring-sleep-recovery-and-strain/ Dr. Antonio Zadra – how sleep and dreaming consolidate memories, regulate emotions, and generate insight. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/when-brains-dream-how-sleep-integrates-emotion-insight-and-creativity/ Together these conversations taught us that sleep and stress regulation aren't optional—they're the operating system that allows every higher brain function to work. Phase 2: Motivation & Neurochemistry The Direction Core Question: What moves us into action? Once the brain feels safe, it becomes ready to pursue goals. In Phase 2, we explored the internal chemistry that transforms intention into action. Our experts helped us understand that sustainable motivation isn't about willpower—it's about aligning our beliefs, thoughts, attention, energy, and movement. Together we discovered: Bob Proctor — our beliefs determine the direction of our lives. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/belief-first-the-neuroscience-of-motivation/ Dr. Carolyn Leaf — our thinking literally changes our brain chemistry. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/thoughts-as-biology-how-your-mind-shapes-neurochemistry/ Dr. John Medina — attention determines what the brain encodes and remembers. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/theory-of-mind-the-missing-link-between-attention-reward-and-motivation Dr. Anna Lembke- Dopamine, Motivation and Why the Brain Repeats Behavior https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/dopamine-nation-the-pleasure%e2%80%93pain-balance-that-drives-motivation/ Dr. Friederike Fabritius — managing our energy allows high performance to become sustainable. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/fun-fear-focus-closing-the-motivation-loop/ Dr. Chuck Hillman & Paul Zientarski — movement activates the brain, preparing it to learn. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/move-to-learn-how-movement-activates-the-brain-and-fuels-motivation/ By the end of Phase 2, we introduced what became The Motivation Loop, showing how beliefs influence thoughts, thoughts influence actions, actions create results, and results reinforce future beliefs. Phase 3: Movement, Learning & Human Performance The Transformation Core Question: How does movement change the brain—and how does recovery transform that change into performance? Now we're taking the next step. Phase 3 builds on everything we've learned so far. If Phase 1 created a regulated nervous system... If Phase 2 created motivation and direction... Phase 3 explains how the brain and body actually become stronger. Together we've explored this process through conversations with: Dr. Chuck Hillman & Paul Zientarski — why movement activates the brain before learning. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/movement-first-how-a-20%e2%80%91minute-walk-lights-up-the-brain/ Dr. John Ratey — how exercise builds a healthier, younger brain. https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/movement-matters-how-every-move-rewires-the-brain/ Dr. Kristen Holmes — why recovery determines adaptation and readiness. Dr. John Medina — how attention transforms movement into lasting learning. Jason Whitrock — how metabolism and cellular energy fuel long-term performance. WHERE WE ARE GOING NEXT Phase 4 — Connection, Emotion & Social Intelligence The Human System Core Question: How do we thrive with other people? The brain didn't evolve in isolation—it evolved through relationships. In Phase 4, we'll explore emotional intelligence, empathy, communication, trust, leadership, and psychological safety to understand how our relationships shape learning, well-being, and performance. Phase 5 — Integration & Human Performance The Complete System Core Question: How do all the systems work together? In our final phase, we'll bring everything together—regulation, motivation, movement, emotion, relationships, learning, and recovery—into one integrated framework. We'll discover how these systems work together to create measurable improvements in our well-being, achievement, leadership, productivity, and results.

The Acts 19 account isn't just ancient history; it's the blueprint for how God has always moved His kingdom forward, and it's an invitation to ask yourself: which role will you play in someone's gospel story today?

As a budding crochet designer, Lir Shilton ran into obstacles and annoyances that many beginning crafters face. But instead of learning to live with them, she and her partner decided to make a platform that offers a different approach. Lir loved to crochet, and she especially loved creating designs to share with other makers. But crochet patterns vary significantly depending where you are in the world—and not just in translating centimeters to inches. Was that a British double crochet or an American double crochet? Did the directions mean to work the decreases 5 times or 5 more times? Which of the 9 sizes did this direction apply to? What color was A? As Lir described her frustrations to her husband, Saar Oron, he asked the simple, obvious question: “Why is it like this?” With a background in building online communities, he wondered why there wasn't an app for designers to present patterns and for crafters to consume them in a more user-friendly way. Sometimes it takes a newcomer to ask the question everyone else has stopped asking. Along with a developer, the pair formed Ribblr, an online community and pattern platform that supports projects in knitting, crochet, and sewing. Patterns on Ribblr allow you to hide unused sizes, cross off completed rows, change colors, and change measurements and instructions to your preferred regional settings. Users can join groups in the site's forums for support and track projects there.

What if the true reason your manifestations keep falling short isn't what you're doing wrong, but a hidden, self-sabotaging mechanism deep within your mind?

Some questions don't have easy answers.Have you ever experienced an unexplained fear that didn't seem connected to anything in your life? Felt an immediate connection with someone you had just met? Or found yourself repeating the same emotional patterns despite years of self-reflection and personal growth?In this follow-up conversation, Marianne welcomes licensed somatic psychotherapist and certified spiritual integration hypnotherapist Melanie Smithson back to Message in the Middle to explore a topic that invites curiosity more than certainty: past-life regression and the possibility that some of our present-day struggles may have roots beyond this lifetime.Whether you approach this conversation through a spiritual lens, a symbolic one, or with healthy skepticism, Melanie offers thoughtful insights into why some experiences seem resistant to traditional explanations and how exploring them can sometimes open the door to deeper healing.Together, they discuss: What past-life regression actually is  Why some fears and emotional patterns seem to have no obvious origin  Soul connections and why certain relationships feel instantly familiar  How the body and spirit may work together in healing  The role curiosity plays in personal growth  Why some of life's biggest questions don't always have simple answers This isn't an episode about convincing you what to believe.It's an invitation to stay curious.Connect with Melanie:  http://www.smithsonclinic.com/ Connect with Marianne:Website:  Message In The Middle with MarianneMessage In the Middle Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/422430469323847/YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@MessageInTheMiddle/playlistsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marianne-demello-smith-678b9966Email:  Contact | Message In The Middle with MarianneSubscribe to Message In the Middle:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTubeLeave Us a Review: If you enjoyed today's episode, please leave a review and share your favorite takeaway.

Episode OverviewGeorge Costa of TCO Fly Shop returns to The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast for another Central PA Fishing Report with host Marvin Cash, checking in on mid-summer conditions across the region's limestone streams. It's a mixed picture: recent weekend rain has pushed the Little Juniata River high and essentially unfishable for the next few days, while Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek remain in solid seasonal shape with manageable flows.Costa reports classic mid-summer fishing, with mornings through late-morning and evenings producing the most consistent action. Tricos are showing sporadically, especially on Spring Creek, alongside a scattering of blue-winged olives and small quills. The terrestrial bite is picking up, with ants and beetles drawing steady interest from trout. Costa's go-to approach right now is a dry-dropper rig: a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or beetle pattern up top with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped underneath, a setup that pulls fish on both the dry and the nymph.Beyond the stream report, Costa previews TCO's free Fly Fishing and Outdoor Festival this weekend at the Boiling Springs shop on Children's Lake, plus ongoing summer sale pricing as the shop transitions its inventory toward fall. He also flags a strong smallmouth bass bite on Pennsylvania's bigger rivers, including good topwater action despite elevated flows on the West Branch and the Juniata.Key TakeawaysHow to fish Central PA limestone streams during mid-summer high-water conditions by targeting Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek while avoiding a blown-out Little JuniataWhen to be on the water for the best mid-summer dry fly action, focusing on first light through 10 or 11 a.m. and again in the eveningWhy a dry-dropper rig combining a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or beetle with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropper is an effective search strategy right nowHow to identify a viable mid-summer smallmouth bass alternative on Pennsylvania's larger rivers when trout water runs highWhen to expect terrestrial patterns like ants and beetles to outperform sparse trico and olive hatches on Central PA streamsTechniques & Gear CoveredCosta's core mid-summer strategy centers on a dry-dropper rig built around a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or large beetle pattern as the top fly, with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped off the back to cover both surface and subsurface feeders. He notes that most of the action is currently coming on the dropper rather than the top fly, though occasional risers will still take the dry. On the hatch front, sporadic tricos, a handful of blue-winged olives and small quills round out the surface options, while the terrestrial bite on ants and beetles continues to build as summer progresses. For the smallmouth side of the report, Costa points anglers toward topwater presentations on Pennsylvania's bigger rivers as an alternative when trout streams are running high.Locations & SpeciesThis report centers on Central Pennsylvania's limestone spring creeks, with Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek all holding good seasonal flows and cool enough temperatures to fish through the heart of summer, while the Little Juniata River is running high and unfishable following recent weekend rain. Wild trout are the primary target across these limestone waters, with dry-dropper presentations and terrestrial patterns proving most effective during the current mid-summer conditions. Costa also highlights a secondary smallmouth bass opportunity on Pennsylvania's larger river systems, including the West Branch and the Juniata, where elevated flows haven't stopped a strong topwater bite from producing quality fish.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhat is the best time of day to fish Central PA limestone streams in mid-summer?Costa recommends targeting first light through roughly 10 or 11 a.m., along with the evening hours, as these windows have consistently produced the best action during the current mid-summer stretch. Midday fishing tends to slow considerably once temperatures peak.Why is the Little Juniata River currently unfishable?Recent weekend rain blew out the Little Juniata and pushed flows high enough that Costa considers it essentially unfishable for at least the next couple of days, especially if additional rain arrives. Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek were not affected to the same degree and remain fishable.What rig works best for Central PA trout right now?Costa's go-to setup is a dry-dropper rig: a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or large beetle pattern on top, with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped off the back. Most fish are currently coming on the dropper, though occasional risers will still eat the dry fly.Is smallmouth bass fishing a good option when trout streams are high?Yes. Costa reports that despite elevated flows on the West Branch and the Juniata, the smallmouth bite has been great, with a particularly strong topwater bite producing quality fish on Pennsylvania's larger rivers.What is happening at TCO Fly Shop this week?TCO is hosting its free Fly Fishing and Outdoor Festival this weekend at the Boiling Springs shop on Children's Lake, open to the public with no admission charge. The shop is also running summer sale pricing as it clears out inventory ahead of fall, with winter class schedules to be posted on the TCO website in the coming weeks.Related ContentS8, Ep 55 - Summer Secrets: George Costa's Central PA Fishing ReportS8, Ep 56 - Topwater Tactics: Captain Brian Shumaker's Pennsylvania Smallmouth ReportS8, Ep 51 - Summer Stream Insights: George Costa on Conditions, Patterns and Upcoming EventsS8, Ep 47 - Central PA Fishing Forecast: George Costa's Summer Stream InsightsS8, Ep 42 - Exploring Terrestrials and Summer Patterns: George Costa's Fishing ForecastView all Central Pennsylvania Fishing Reports with George CostaConnect with Our GuestFollow TCO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

WelcomeHello, lovelies. It's Juliette here.Have you ever reached for your partner, only to feel them disappear before they've even moved?Maybe they go quiet. Maybe they make a joke. Maybe they suddenly remember something they need to do.And you're left wondering…"Did I do something wrong?"Most people believe someone pulls away because they've stopped loving you.But that's rarely what's happening.Sometimes the body experiences closeness as pressure before the mind even has time to understand what's happening.In this episode, I explain why your loving reach can accidentally land as a demand inside your partner's nervous system, especially if they've learned that closeness comes with expectation, disappointment, or the possibility of failing someone they love.You'll also learn how to recognise the subtle signs that tell you whether your partner is actually available for connection before you reach for touch.Because intimacy isn't about trying harder.It's about learning to read the nervous system before you ask it to receive.Find your stageIf you're noticing this pattern in your relationship, take the free Touch Reset Quiz.It will help you recognise how your nervous system responds to closeness, and where to begin rebuilding safety together.Touch Reset Quiz → https://feelfullyyou.com/touch-reset-quiz

In this episode, I talk about something I believe is one of the most important and most overlooked pieces of the migraine puzzle: what I call vitality draining mental and emotional dynamics. These are the unconscious patterns so many women live inside of every day... Perfectionism, over-giving, fixing, people-pleasing, walking on eggshells, constantly seeking validation. You know exactly what I'm talking about. And they don't just affect your emotions. They create a real, ongoing drain on your body's resilience. I explain why you can be eating well, taking supplements, trying to manage your triggers, and still not getting the results you want if there's a hole in the bottom of your vitality bucket. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right and still not getting better, this episode may help you understand why.

“VAN HEFLIN: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 8/03/2026 (151) Some actors become legends because of their larger-than-life personalities. Others earn that status simply because they're so believable that you forget they're acting at all. VAN HEFLIN belonged firmly in the second category. An Academy Award winner and one of the most respected performers of Hollywood's Golden Age, Heflin built an extraordinary career playing ordinary people with uncommon depth, honesty, and humanity. Whether starring in "The Strange Love of Martha Ivers," "Act of Violence," "Shane," "3:10 to Yuma," or dozens of other classics, he brought an authenticity that made every performance memorable. Join us on From Beneath the Hollywood Sign as we explore the life and remarkable career of this often-overlooked Hollywood giant, examining the films, the man behind them, and why Van Heflin remains one of the finest—and most underrated—actors ever to grace the screen.
