Are you exhausted from trying to look perfect and polished? I'm diving deep into the chokehold of performance and anxiety that keeps so many of us trapped. I'm calling out the Pharisee Complex—the dangerous lie that says excellence equals worthiness. It's time to trade in that prison of perfection for the radical freedom found in grace. I'm giving you the keys today, including three practical, one-thing-only steps to embrace wholeness over flawlessness. Key Takeaways for a Quick Win God desires wholeness (telios), not flawlessness. Stop striving to be perfect; start pursuing maturity and completeness. Perfectionism is a prison that limits our freedom; it's not a personality type, it's often a protection mechanism. Radical Repentance is the shift from a life of damage control to a life dependent on God's grace. Family, I love you and I'm cheering for you to walk in this new freedom. Don't keep this key to yourself! If this episode broke a chain in your life, you know someone else who needs to hear it.

When you're trying to grow your property management business, perfection can feel like the standard… but what if chasing "perfect" is actually what's slowing you down? In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull unpack the hidden cost of perfectionism in business. They break down why striving for 100% accuracy in tools, systems, or team members leads to frustration, stalled growth, and constant "shiny object" switching. You'll learn how to evaluate mistakes the right way, when to keep a system versus scrap it, and why imperfect action often scales faster than polished hesitation. They also dive into the six core functions of a healthy business, the danger of over-optimizing the wrong areas, and how to free up your time so you can focus on what actually moves the needle. You'll Learn (00:00) Introduction to DoorGrow and Perfectionism (05:24) Optimizing Business Processes Without Perfection (11:07) Scaling Beyond Personal Limitations Quotables "Perfect businesses are out of business." "There is nothing in this world that is going to get 100% accuracy 100% of the time." "Perfectionism is usually born out of an insecurity and discomfort in ourself and we have to get comfortable with things not being perfect in order to scale a business." Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:01) All right, five, four, three, two, one. We are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry. eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right. So what are we chatting about today, Sarah? Perfection. Perfection. So this is a big challenge in business is that especially for early stage entrepreneurs, they want everything to be perfect. They judge, we judge ourselves so harshly. We're so worried. We have imposter syndrome and where we feel like people are gonna figure out that we don't know everything and that we may not know something they know. There's all these early stage entrepreneur concerns that a lot of people go through. so they have this fear that I need to make sure everything is perfect. And perfectionism can cause some serious problems. And this is a temptation, I think, for most every entrepreneur that I've ever coached or dealt with. to some degree. So let's talk about this. All So the issue that had come up was just last week on a coaching call with a client and she was saying that, you know, hey, I have this tool that does a specific job and it's pretty good, but it's not 100%. Okay. And it was, she was frustrated that it wasn't 100 % perfect. All right. Right. And she said, because it's not like sometimes it will miss little things or I think it called a client or a tenant called a tenant by the wrong name. Right. So it might miss little things here and there. she said, you know, I I'm not doing it, but I'm having my team member just kind of watch over things. And so she said, and I'm looking for an alternative because I just don't feel like that's going to be the solution. It's just not where I want it to be yet. So I said, I totally understand where you're coming from with it. ⁓ My bet, my best advice on it is not to try to strive for perfection because truthfully, it really doesn't matter what it is. It doesn't matter if it's a tool. a system, a process, a software, a team member, or ourselves that's doing a particular thing, there is nothing on this world that is going to get 100 % accuracy 100 % of the time. So if that's what we're striving for, we're going to be let down at some point, and we're going to consistently feel frustrated. And then we're to jump from thing to thing or person to person looking. for this magic solution that does 100 % all the time. And it's just, it's not possible. If you ask yourself, have I ever made a Sure. Who hasn't? What technology hasn't messed up from time to time? What computer hasn't messed up from time to time? What even AI sometimes you'll ask it a question and it gives you answers that you know are not correct. And then you have to correct it. And then it goes, I'm so sorry. You're right. Here's now the correct information. first time it gave you incorrect information. Right? So if we're striving for, no, this thing in order for me to use it has to be perfect all of the time, otherwise it's not worth it. And now I have to go look for something else. That puts us in this loop of consistently we'll forever be searching. will forever be searching for something to be perfect. My rule is if, If you're using some sort of system, whether it's a tool or a software or AI, if it makes a mistake, and it will. So when it makes a mistake. If the same thing was done by a human, would this be an immediately fireable offense? Yeah. If a human made the same mistake that the system or tool or AI did, would you go, I immediately have to fire this person? Most times the answer is no. And if the answer is no, then why would you be looking to immediately be getting rid of that tool or stop using that AI or stop using that software? Right? So a lot of times what I've noticed is we have a lot of grace when it comes to humans and we have very little when it comes to technology, including AI. Yeah. We've almost none. We expect perfection all the time. You're a supercomputer. You should know everything all the time and never make a mistake. And that is fantastic in theory. But in practicality, it's probably just not realistic, even if it is a supercomputer and it's infinitely more intelligent, even than we are, it's still going to make mistakes sometimes. So if a human made this mistake, if you would look at that and go, yes, I immediately need to fire this person, then you're probably on the right track by getting rid of that tool or system. But if a... human made this same mistake and you would just chalk it up to, hey, they need more support or hey, they need more training or hey, you these things happen from time to time. It's not a great situation, but I'm not gonna fire them over it. Then I also don't feel like it's worth scrapping the tool for the same reason. Okay, yeah, I agree. So I think ⁓ perfectionism is a big challenge. So one of my mentors, Alex Sharfin, shout out to Alex. said, he used to say perfect businesses are out of business. And I think one of his mentors told him that. So the idea is when you are trying to make your business perfect, you aren't focused on a lot of times the right things. ⁓ One of the books he recommended to me, a great book, it's called The Goal by Elihu Goldratt. And in this book, it talks about how if you optimize each thing in the business, the business actually becomes less efficient. So he uses this story uses an example of like a factory and there's different stages in this process. Just like in any business, there's different stages. And if you over optimize one particular stage that leads into another, the challenge is it creates inventory or it creates like more work or it creates excess. And so everything needs to be moving in concert towards the goal. And anything that's not moving the entire business towards the main goal. can actually become a distraction. So it's very easy for operators in business to over optimize a piece or to spend too much time on something or to put too much attention on making the perfect onboarding process or the perfect system. And it actually makes you less money. It like brings you less client retention. It brings you more headaches and more problems. It makes you need more staff. And so we have to be really careful about optimizing or making everything perfect. Elon Musk talks about how one of the biggest mistakes made in business is optimizing for the wrong things. And so we need to make sure we're optimizing towards what the actual goals are. And a lot of times also clients get our clients that we coach, they get so focused on making sure their clients have such an amazing experience while neglecting the lead gen and the growth of their own business, which is the lifeblood. So it's like, I want to take care of everybody that is paying me, but I don't really care about taking care of myself and my family, and paying myself is what it kind of plays out to be. And so this is why we look at things through the lens of what I call the six core functions. Lead gen, nurture, conversion, delivery, lifetime value, and financials. And so these are like six little kids you gotta take care of in the business. And a lot of business owners focus on one that is their favorite darling child. and make sure that they're fat and happy, and then they have at least one or two that are starving in the corner that they're neglecting. They're like, And usually, lead gen is the one that's being neglected. find, and delivery, taking care of the client's experience, delivering the product is the fat one. And so this means you're being a bad steward in your own business. You're not making healthy decisions. And here's the thing we teach when we have our clients rate these on a scale of one to five, five being best, each of these six children, these functions in the business, ⁓ it's impossible for all six to be a five at the same time. That's impossible. Perfection is impossible because if you ramp up lead gen and nurture and ⁓ conversion, sales are those three. Sales is ramping up. Now you have constraints and now you need to hire more people, build out your team. And once you build out your team, you have more expenses, then you need more leads. It's a constant juggle of figuring out which one needs the attention right now. But you're always leveling up, it's impossible for them all to be perfect at the same time. Because it's always relative to your current progress. Like our versions of a five now are very different than my versions of a five in previous history. Like our ones now, nowadays, Indoor Grow, when we rate things, I would have dreamed of having as, it would have been fives for me in the past in terms of how much money we make, leads, like, et cetera. And so, yeah, like early Jason entrepreneur wouldn't have even have dreamed of having a business as big as this is and being able to live the lifestyle that we live. And so, ⁓ that's important to take note of as well when looking at this that. Perfectionism is usually born out of an insecurity and discomfort in ourself and we have to get comfortable with things not being perfect in order to scale a business. Speaking of being able to scale the business, let's have a word from our sponsor. Yeah, let's share. Okay. So our sponsor today is Cover Pest. So Cover Pest, they are the easy and seamless way to add on-demand pest control to your resident benefit package. So residents love the simplicity of submitting a service request and how affordable it is compared to traditional pest control options. Investors love knowing that their property is kept pest free. and property managers love getting their time back and making more revenue per door. Simply put, CoverPest is the easiest way to handle pest control issues at all of your properties. To learn more and to get special door grow pricing, visit coverpest.com slash door grow. Okay. That's our sponsor. All right. Thank you, CoverPest. So, yeah. So when it comes to perfectionism, How do you get clients past that? What do usually tell them? So I have a rule that if there is some sort of software... member that can do a particular thing so that I don't have to be the one who's doing it. If they can do it even, even like 60 or 70 percent as good as I can do it, ⁓ I'm going to make that trade every day of the week. Why? Because at some point if you're trying, if you're holding on to no I will never settle for 60 percent, that is unacceptable, then you very quickly will hit a limit to where you can scale. and you will no longer be able to grow. Yeah, you hit a limit in your capacity because you only everybody has a limited of what we call the five currencies, time, energy, focus, cash and effort. That's what you have to invest. And your most important or valuable resource, I believe, is time. That's your life. Like you're going to die. And so you're giving away chunks of your life and. You know, if you're going to give away chunks of your life, it might as well be towards things you actually enjoy doing in the business and not holding on to all these things you think you have to do because your ego says you're the best and nobody else can do it better. Let me tell you this. This is the humbling thing I learned is that if you don't love doing those particular things in the business, there is always somebody that can do it better than you. Because if you don't love doing it, somebody else would and they would easily surpass your level of expertise in that. and your ability to perform in that and show up consistently well in that. And so you gotta find the people. Another thing early stage entrepreneurs don't understand that I didn't early on is they don't understand that there's somebody out there that loves doing everything that you hate doing. The big mistake we make in the beginning is we think we need to find a clone of ourselves. I just need to clone myself. I call it the clone myth. The reality is it takes about 10 or 12 people to clone you. So just find, you just got to find specialists, experts, and they will be better at these things than you. And you can stick to the stuff you love. Cool. if they're not better at it than you are, if it can still be done well enough that you won't lose business over it, that is a trade that I would make every day of the week. So I might do something and have amazing results and someone else might duplicate. Let's just say sales. Let's say that I can close nine out of 10 deals. but I really don't like doing sales. And I'm doing it because I have to do it because I want to grow the business, but I don't actually really enjoy doing it. And then I can find someone who I can have do this for me, but maybe they only close six or seven out of 10. Well, easy math will tell you, hey, I'm going to be closing less deals. That's not a good trade. But really it is because you're getting somebody who's doing a decent enough job. so that you're not losing business, you're not costing yourself anything crazy, it's not like all of your clients are going to leave you. They're doing a decent enough job to continue to move the business forward, meanwhile you're able to stop doing that thing and then go focus on doing something else that you actually enjoy and very likely with that extra time you will be able to find Ways to make more money that you did not have time for previously because your time was being eaten up By whatever thing that you can now replace with either a person AI or a tool So even if it's not perfect even if it's not going to do everything the way that you want it to all of the time And it's just not as good as me If you're going to hold on to that belief that it has to be as good as you otherwise it cannot be used then it will hold you back in your business and you will very quickly hit a ceiling on the capacity of doors that you can enter. Okay, the one problem with that analogy is that most business owners, if they're doing the sales in their own business, they're only doing it part-time. They're not full-time. And so your part-time results might be the equivalent of their full-time results. And so you're not really giving up something if you get somebody full-time, they take that off your plate. They might even surpass you because it's really hard to compete if you're only putting in an hour to a day to actually grow the business and you've got somebody doing it eight hours or six hours a day. They easily will eventually be beating you in terms of results, especially if you don't like it and they love it. So all right, cool. Well, that's our episode for today.

Some people break every “health rule” and still live long lives—while others do everything “right” and struggle. This episode digs into that uncomfortable gap and what it may reveal about meaning, motivation, and the inner life. If you're tired of surface-level wellness advice, Allen (aka “the Paraclete”) offers a purpose-first lens: joy, curiosity, community, and a compelling reason to wake up can shape how we endure, adapt, and keep moving forward—personally and collectively. About the Guest: Allen, also known as the Paraclete, joins from Miami, Florida. He's the author of The Modern Citizen, inspired by Carl Jung's reflections on the “modern man” and humanity's future.

After many weeks of work with corporate HR leaders, technology companies, and implementation teams I'm realizing the word that describes AI is “confusion.” Too much going on, too many unanswered questions, and no clarity about what to do. And many of you have been asked (or told) to lead the “AI Transformation” (which is the wrong phrase, as I explain) to reduce cost. Well I hope today's podcast gives you some clarity. Obviously the space is changing quickly, but there is a clear strategy emerging. I discuss the technology market, vendor strategies, and most important of all, how you as a business leader can leverage AI without going down dead ends. I hope this gives you clarity, and I urge you to read our 2026 Imperatives for Enterprise AI for more. Topics covered: Why AI adoption isn't a transformation — it's a continuous learning process How to design an architecture that avoids vendor chaos and data silos The real ROI of AI: rethinking workflows and job structures, not just automating tasks Strategies for navigating a confusing vendor landscape and building your own solutions How to build a culture of trust and change, and empower employees What to tell employees so they'll lean in to change The importance of speed, experimentation, and trusting the data over perfection. If you're in the middle of your AI strategy, please contact us. Our Systemic HR AI Blueprint will show you the way, and Galileo will help you with vendor analysis, process design, job redesign, and of course the training you need to enable your organization.

Learn how to leverage strategic execution to outperform 72% of your competitors Strategic execution is the difference between businesses that talk about growth and businesses that actually achieve it. Look, here's what most people get wrong—they chase tactics like shiny pennies without ever documenting a real strategy. In this episode, Saul Marquez and I dig into why only 28% of businesses actually have a documented marketing strategy, and what that means for you. We talk about how AI is dividing your efforts instead of multiplying them, the power of account-based marketing for B2B companies, and why the guy with the "ugly ad" who just executed crushed the perfectionist still tweaking his campaign six months later. If your business is running on disconnected tactics that don't talk to each other, you're leaving serious money on the table. Saul Marquez is the founder and CEO of Outcomes Rocket, a healthcare-exclusive marketing, media, and advisory firm. But here's what I love about Saul—he's a former medical device corporate executive turned entrepreneur who's spent over a decade in the trenches where healthcare, marketing, sales, and technology collide. He's not about theoretical frameworks that never leave the slide deck. He's about practical execution that turns strategy into pipeline, revenue, and real market credibility. Saul also hosts the Outcomes Rocket Podcast with nearly 2,000 episodes under his belt, making it one of the longest-running healthcare podcasts out there. This guy knows how to cut through the noise and get things done. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Tactics without strategy is like noise before the war is lost—document your marketing strategy first. Only 28% of businesses have a documented marketing strategy, giving you a built-in competitive advantage. AI is a tactic, not a strategy—you need a deployment and governance plan for it. Disconnected marketing tactics leave money on the table; integration creates force multiplication. Account-based marketing treats each target account as its own market for deeper engagement. If your business depends on referrals alone, it's a symptom that your other channels aren't converting. Execution beats perfection—the "ugly ad" guy who iterated fast outperformed the perfectionist. Knowledge without implementation is just entertainment; doing what you say you'll do doubles growth.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!What happens when a world-class performer stops chasing perfection—and starts choosing presence?In this episode, I'm joined by Sean Panikkar, an American tenor of Sri Lankan heritage whose career spans the world's most renowned opera houses, including the Metropolitan Opera, Royal Albert Hall, La Scala, Carnegie Hall, the Salzburg Festival, and the English National Opera. Many also recognize Sean from America's Got Talent as a member of Forte, the operatic tenor trio that captivated millions.Sean reflects on how the pandemic reshaped his relationship to his work, his family, and himself. After years of constant international travel, the sudden pause brought him home—and revealed just how deeply he missed the rehearsal room, the creative process, and the joy of making art. That space helped him reconnect to his “why” and renew his gratitude for the work he once risked taking for granted.We explore his unconventional path into music, the mindset that sustains a long and demanding career, and the surprising place where he finds the most joy—not in applause, but in rehearsal and collaboration. Sean shares how releasing the need for perfection liberated him as a performer, allowing him to step onstage with trust, freedom, and presence. As he puts it, live performance is never flawless—but it is always true to the moment.We also talk about reliability, preparation, working smarter rather than harder, and the values that anchor him—especially fatherhood. At the heart of this conversation is a powerful reminder: when we let go of control and fully arrive, we're often right where we're meant to be.As STOPTIME: Live in the Moment approaches five years of conversations (almost six!), I'm revisiting and re-sharing a few favorite episodes—conversations that continue to resonate and meet us exactly where we are. This one felt especially worth returning to.Thank you for listening—and for being part of this journey.— Lisa

1) Best coaching advice you've gotten“It doesn't have to be anything.”Let go of outcomes to make room for discovery.Presence creates space clients rarely experience.Coaching works precisely because nothing is being driven. 2) What are you still trying to improve about your coaching?Communicating the value of coaching in the marketplace.Calling in the right people, not everyone.Refining the “howl” so the wolves answer.Balancing intention with non-attachment. 3) Most outrageous thing you've done, tried, or said in a session?Saying the thing politeness says not to say.Naming contradictions clients don't realize they voiced.Choosing courage over being liked.Trusting that bravery serves the client, not the ego. 4) What still makes you squirm or feel uncomfortable?Realizing you misunderstood where the client was going.Moments of energetic or values mismatch.Knowing a client is thrilled while you're quietly dreading sessions.Recognizing when it's not a good fit. 5) Advice for someone new to coachingGet serious about the business side early.Don't confuse caring with giving it away.Channel generosity intentionally (not randomly).Coaching is a profession, not a hobby with invoices. 6) Something you had to conquer to become a great coachThe need to rescue or make things better.Staying in your lane when therapy is needed.Knowing your edges and referring out.Letting clients have their stuff without taking it from them. 7) How are you using AI in your coaching practice?To get to people faster, not replace connection.For thinking partners, not final answers.Designing processes and exploring ideas.Speed to relationship, not content automation. 8) What have you learned about yourself through coaching?Messy you is still a gift.Perfection is optional, presence isn't.Emotions carry wisdom when welcomed.Sharing beats performing every time. Fun Stuff Question: Favorite mealIt's never about the food alone.Conversation is the real main course.Care, intention, and presence matter more than the menu.A great meal is a shared experience, not a transaction.
We're officially gushing — and in Westeros, that's never a good sign.

Community is being redefined at a moment when burnout, isolation, and constant productivity are leaving many women disconnected from themselves and each other. In this episode, Kara Duffy sits down with Porsha Ellis, CEO of Let It Break, to explore why women are craving deeper, more intentional spaces, and how community can become a catalyst for personal growth, wellness, and meaningful change. Porsha shares her journey from building creative agencies to leading a women-centered community rooted in self-awareness, service, and care. Together, they unpack the pressure to “do it all,” the importance of slowing down, redefining success beyond titles, and why giving back through mentorship, service, and organizations like Compton Girls Club, can shift how we show up in our lives and leadership. This conversation examines what it means to break old patterns, reconnect with purpose, and build communities that support the whole woman. 00:00 Introduction to the Guest: Porsha Ellis 01:02 Porsha's Background, Career & Where She's Based 02:18 What Is Let It Break?

This conversation delves into the complexities of perfection in secured transactions under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). It emphasizes the importance of making security interests public to protect against third-party claims, particularly in bankruptcy situations. The discussion outlines the five methods of perfection: filing, possession, control, automatic perfection, and certificate of title, while highlighting the critical need for accuracy and vigilance in maintaining perfected status.TakeawaysPerfection is about not being invisible in the eyes of the law.The law abhors secret liens; transparency is crucial.You must meet both attachment and perfection criteria simultaneously.Timing is everything; the gap between attachment and perfection can be fatal.Filing a UCC-1 financing statement is the default method of perfection.Possession is key for tangible assets, while control is essential for intangible assets.Automatic perfection applies only in specific situations, like consumer goods.Certificate of title laws govern certain assets like vehicles and boats.Maintaining perfection requires monitoring for name changes and lapses.Bankruptcy trustees have strong powers to challenge unperfected interests. perfection, secured transactions, UCC, bankruptcy, priority, collateral, filing, possession, control, automatic perfection
There was a time when I did everything "right" with my health—tracked every meal, never missed a workout, hit PRs, stayed lean and still didn't feel good about myself. From the outside, it looked like discipline. On the inside, it felt like pressure, anxiety, and never being satisfied. In this episode, I'm sharing what chasing perfection actually cost me… why no number, physique, or achievement ever brought peace… and what finally did. If you're exhausted from trying to be "good enough" through your habits, your body, or your discipline.. this one's for you.

Brain in a Vat is back from hiatus with a deep dive into the philosophy of religion. Stephen Kershnar and Nathan Bray join us to ask whether God can be morally responsible and whether worship makes sense if God could not have done otherwise.The discussion begins with a thought experiment about gratitude and worship. If worship expresses praise for morally responsible action, can a perfectly good God deserve it at all? Kershnar and Bray argue that divine perfection may undermine responsibility rather than secure it.From there, Kershnar and Bray explore compulsion, omnibenevolence, and free will. Along the way, we discuss moral saints, chess computers, Frankfurt-style cases, Patty Hearst, and the costs these arguments impose on traditional theism. We would love to hear your thoughts. Is worship grounded in gratitude, awe, or something else entirely? And does God need moral responsibility to be worthy of it?[00:00] Welcome Back to Brain in a Vat [00:45] Thought Experiment: Worship and Gratitude [02:59] The Compulsion Argument[05:04] The Role of Awe in Worship [13:21] Maximizing Goodness and Divine Discretion [20:26] The Problem of Evil and Divine Psychology [33:33] Exploring Patty Hearst's Psychology [40:19] The Nature of God's Perfection [46:57] Philosophical Debates on God's Existence[01:03:49] Concluding Thoughts and Viewer Engagement
In this episode, we're joined by Andrew Genovese, dimensional breathwork guide, inner child + shadow work teacher, and a fierce advocate for inner sovereignty and soul reclamation — for a grounded, no-BS conversation about what spirituality actually is (and what it definitely isn't). Andrew shares his personal hero's journey…from years of nomadic travel and existential dread, to a full-blown awakening catalyzed by loss, collapse, and deep surrender. He walks us through the real mechanics of transformation: nervous system capacity, embodiment, and the willingness to face your own darkness instead of hiding behind slogans. We go straight at the modern “spiritual scene” — the robes, the persona, the Love & Light bypassing and why real awakening doesn't look like anything…except becoming radically, unapologetically yourself. If you've ever felt allergic to the performance of spirituality and hungry for something with substance, this episode is your compass.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:37) Opening Conversation(01:13) Exclusive Membership Announcements(03:34) Andrew Genovese's Hero's Journey(09:10) His Defining Psychedelic Experience(15:21) Reflecting on Childhood and Family Dynamics(28:47) What Is Spiritual Awakening Really?(38:18) The Illusion of Perfection(45:36) Living with an Open Heart & Navigating Life's Challenges(01:00:19) The Role of Nervous System in Personal Growth(01:06:30) True Leadership and Authenticity(01:11:05) Understanding Personality and Birth Cards(01:13:33) The Concept of Downloading Codes(01:15:55) Questioning Spiritual Language and Authenticity(01:25:56) Dimensional Breath Work and Personal Growth(01:36:44) The Hero's Journey and Self-EsteemGuest Linkshttps://www.andrewgenovesehealing.com/ https://www.instagram.com/breathehealevolve/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

In this episode, I'm re-introducing myself and sharing what's really been happening behind the scenes over the past few years...spiritually, emotionally, and energetically.We talk about manifestation, spirituality, and embodiment, but at the core of this conversation is one simple truth: your authenticity is your power.I share how learning to regulate my nervous system and come back into my body completely changed my life, how it helped me feel safe enough to show up as myself, take aligned action, and stay consistent without burning out. This is the exact work that inspired me to create the Glowup Bundle because manifestation isn't about doing more, it's about feeling safe enough to be who you already are.If you've been feeling disconnected, overthinking your path, or holding back parts of yourself, this episode is a reminder to return to your truth.

North Carolina women's lacrosse ended their 2025 season with the program's fourth national title and a perfect 22-0 record. Heading into 2026, head coach Jenny Levy continues to push the Tar Heel standard higher as some of the faces on the roster change, but the goals always remain the same. Sophomore attacker Chloe Humphrey returns after earning virtually every award and accolade possible in 2025, with preseason player of the year honors pouring in. Defender Sam Forrest paces the Carolina defense while Levy's team will look to continue the nation's dominance on both ends of the field. Levy spoke to Inside Carolina about the process, the expectations and the plan to do it all again this season.

In this week's episode of the Exploring More podcast, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings continue their deep dive into fatherhood with Part 2 of the Father Matters series. Centered around three foundational truths—that you can't father well unless you've been fathered, that fatherhood is relational not transactional, and that fatherhood never ends—the conversation challenges men to reflect on their own stories and press into presence over performance. Through personal stories and practical insights, Michael and SJ explore how being present, engaged, and intentional creates space for deeper connection and healing in relationships with children. They name the common distractions—busyness, financial stress, past wounds—and point to the quiet heroism of simply showing up. The power of meaningful questions, the role of forgiveness, and the impact of being emotionally available are all part of the journey. Whether you're a new dad, a seasoned father, or healing from your own father story, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that God is still fathering you—and He wants to empower you to father well.

That's why I love working with herbal allies that support the nervous system, immune system, and sleep naturally, instead of forcing or overriding the body. These three legendary blends from WishGarden Herbs are ones I personally trust and come back to again and again: Deep Stress Daily Calm is my go-to when life feels relentless. Chronic stress impacts hormones, immunity, energy, and mood — not just mentally, but physically. This blend features ashwagandha and nourishing nervine herbs that help calm the stress response both in the moment and over time. It supports healthier cortisol patterns, steadier energy, improved sleep quality, and a more balanced mood — helping the body shift out of constant high gear and back into regulation. When stress shows up as a racing mind at night, Sleepy Nights & Fresh Mornings is such a gentle yet powerful support. I love that it's formulated without melatonin, valerian, or kava, so it supports natural sleep rhythms without dependency or morning grogginess. Whether taken before bed or during unwanted night wakings, it helps calm the mind so the body can settle into deeper, more restorative sleep. And when you start to feel that familiar "something's coming on" feeling, Kick-Ass Immune Activator is what I reach for. This fast-acting blend supports immune and respiratory health right when the body needs it most — helping you respond early instead of waiting until you're already depleted. Because supporting your immune system proactively makes a massive difference. What I love most about WishGarden Herbs is that their formulas are USDA Certified Organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan, and crafted to work with the body's innate intelligence. These aren't quick fixes — they're true herbal allies. Discover the natural power of WishGarden Herbs' legendary blends and save 20% on your order with code NOSUGARCOATING.

김영철의 파워FM - 진짜 영국식 영어 548회 - 맛이 제대로 들었어! = It is aged to perfection.
The cost of perfection left me perfectly exhausted. Be thin, but not too thin. Be confident but not overly confident. Be successful, but not too successful. If you're with me and you experience the pressure to be perfect, this is a perfect paradox—and it is time to dump the impossible standards that are destroying your mental health and that are so tied to eating disorders. In this episode, I'm diving into the relentless pressure to be perfect and how it's literally rewiring your brain to keep you stuck. Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or you've been on this path for years, perfectionism might feel like both an old friend and your biggest obstacle. And when you couple perfectionism with the pressure from culture and society to be Instagram-ready? The output you receive is simply exhaustion. You're exhausted, sis. And trying to live up to these impossible standards. But today, we're going to dissect this. We're going to look at what science says about breaking free. Because you don't just have to take my word for it—research shows your brain can actually change. In this episode, you'll discover: The impossible standards we're all trying to live up to (and why they're literally impossible) The shocking statistics: 68% of individuals with eating disorders display clinically significant perfectionism Why perfectionism often appears YEARS before any eating disorder behaviors The deep roots of perfectionism: family dynamics, trauma, social media (users who spend 3+ hours/day are 60% more likely to develop body image issues) The neuroscience: How perfectionists have heightened activity in the brain's "error detection center" How altered serotonin and dopamine systems make it harder for perfectionists to feel "good enough" or satisfied The vicious cycle: threat detection → anxiety → perfectionist behaviors → temporary relief → reinforced neural pathways The HOPE: How mindfulness, self-compassion, and exposure to imperfection can actually change your brain Why true recovery happens when you stop trying to do it perfectly and start doing it honestly A powerful devotional insight: "God won't bless who you pretend to be" The truth: Your worth isn't measured by impossible standards—it's measured by your courage to show up If you're tired of being tired, if you're exhausted from trying to be "perfect," if you feel stuck in the perfect paradox—this episode will give you both the science and the hope you need to break free. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE
In this mini episode, Dr. Derrick Hines breaks down why real consistency has nothing to do with perfection or constant motivation, and everything to do with identity.This episode explains how habits stick when they become part of who you are, not when they rely on willpower or flawless execution. Dr. Hines explores the idea of “casting votes” for the person you want to become, why missing a day isn't failure, and how quickly getting back on track matters more than intensity or perfection.If you've struggled with starting strong but falling off, this episode offers a clearer, more sustainable way to think about habits, healing, and long-term change.Topics Covered:-- Why consistency is identity-based, not motivation-based-- How small actions reinforce who you believe you are-- Why perfection often prevents progress-- The power of “don't miss two days in a row”-- How consistency drives deeper health and healing over time
This week, we're exploring the quiet ways perfectionism disguises itself as discipline, responsibility, and even maturity, and how "I'll enjoy it when…" might be the very phrase keeping you from fully living. Through a personal reflection on home, hosting, entrepreneurship, and high-capacity womanhood, Colet is unpacking how waiting for the perfect conditions can quietly delay joy, connection, and momentum. Press play and you'll walk away with a gentler, more liberating lens on participation, one that allows you to light the candle, pour the wine, host the dinner, start the project, and stop postponing your life for a future version of yourself. In this episode, we dive into: • Why "I'll enjoy it when…" is one of the most dangerous narratives we carry • How perfectionism quietly delays joy, connection, and self-trust • The hidden cost of waiting for work, money, or life to "settle down" • What the French understand about daily pleasure and participation • Practical ways to start living now, even in unfinished seasons Useful Resources:
Say it with me: Done is better than perfect. Perfection kills momentum. Action creates results. If you're waiting until it's flawless, you'll never launch, never call, never take the shot that changes everything Action solves everything. Run it up the flagpole. See what happens. If you need a mindset heading into 2026 - this is it. What do you think?

#912 Perfection is out. Authenticity is in. As the world is flooded with polished content and AI noise, this is becoming increasingly true every day. That's why the more you edit yourself, the more you'll blend in. It's also why, if you show your real self, you'll stand out and attract a community of superfans! So how do you fight back against the slop and build a personal brand? In this episode, I look at the countermovement emerging in response to our artificial modern landscape. In fact, my inspiration for this episode comes from Medieval Mindset on YouTube labeling this as the Second Renaissance. I love that idea because it means that now is the best time to show up and lead the charge. You'd do exactly that by participating in something like my 30-day video challenge. So tune in because, when you don't overproduce, reality seeps in and you attract the right people!
