She was in the ocean with her daughter when something happened. She crawled out of the water, turned around, and knew the woman who walked in that day was not the same woman who came out. That moment became the foundation of everything she teaches about why the stories we're most afraid to tell are usually the ones our audience needs most. Elizabeth Brett is a former NBC television reporter and creator of Story Alchemy™ a methodology built to move entrepreneurs beyond performative storytelling and into messaging that actually lands. In this conversation, she and George unpack what it means to tell stories with purpose, the sovereignty filter for knowing what to share and when, and why your story goldmine is bigger than you think. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why most people aren't bad at storytelling, they've been taught to perform instead of connect The four false beliefs about storytelling blocking your greatest business asset The Story Alchemy framework: how to step into your next era without losing what made you The sovereignty filter: how to know if a story is truly ready to be shared What makes a story pivotal and why it doesn't have to be life-changing The before-pivot-after structure for any story, in any format Why emotional honesty, not radical vulnerability, is the real differentiator in an AI world Key Takeaways: ✔️Most people aren't bad storytellers. They got trapped in the version of themselves that created early success and that mask became the performance. ✔️Story Alchemy is both inner and outer work: the inner stories you're ready to shed, and the outer stories your audience needs to hear from you now. ✔️The sovereignty filter asks one question before you share anything: is this in integrity for me right now? If it's not, find out why and don't push past it. ✔️You don't have one or two stories. You have a goldmine. If one isn't ready, find another, there are more than you can imagine. ✔️A pivotal story doesn't mean life-changing. It means a before and after. A shift in perspective. Even something that happened at Whole Foods on a Tuesday can be a story. ✔️Story structure in its simplest form: take us into the moment before, articulate the shift, and show us what opened up after. That's it. ✔️Storytelling with purpose goes beyond connection. Authority stories show your expertise in real time. They don't tell, they demonstrate. ✔️The story you tell yourself in the mirror will radiate into every story you tell the world. You have to fall in love with the story of yourself first.

What happens when a Three stops performing and starts telling the truth — even to herself? Anthony and I sat down with Steph Baron Hall, author of Enneagram in Real Life and host of the Enneagram in Real Life podcast, for a conversation that starts with instinctual stacking and ends up somewhere much deeper. Steph — a sexual (or "spark") dominant Three — unpacks how the sexual instinct differs from the social Three most people picture, why she was so often mistaken for a Four, and how she's learned to notice the exact moment she starts performing instead of being present. We move through the difference between achieving your identity and receiving it, the religious trauma that shaped Steph's relationship to spirituality, and why she's going back to school in her late thirties to become a therapist. Along the way, I offer a memorable image for the false self — the "pinched self" — and the three of us talk honestly about what it actually costs to tell yourself the truth, not just other people. Steph is the author of Enneagram in Real Life, available wherever books are sold. Find her at ninetypes.co and on her own podcast, Enneagram in Real Life.

We all have hard seasons.Stages where the ground on which we stand seems to crumble, nothing seems to be in our favor and the winter seems endless.To know pain, to endure suffering and to feel as though the trial will never end is to be fully human. And to become most intimate with life itself.“A bad day for the ego is a great day for the soul”, though.From what I can tell—and who truly knows the way the world works—that which appears to unmake us is the very season that rebuilds us.Our pain, in truth, becomes a purifier. Difficulty softens us, unmasks us and opens us—allowing the gifts of wisdom, humility and patience to become our new way of being.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

What makes a retreat unforgettable? It is rarely just the itinerary. It is the feeling. The energy in the room. The moments guests did not expect. In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with Austin-based singer, songwriter, and musician Christine Baird to talk about the role of live music, art, and real human connection in creating transformational retreat experiences. Christine has performed at multiple retreats hosted by Shannon, and together they explore why live music brings something to a retreat that a playlist, a screen, or even AI-generated music simply cannot replicate. They discuss how music and art can shift the energy of a room, help guests become more present, create emotional anchors, and turn a good retreat into something people remember long after they leave. The conversation also dives into why live, in-person experiences are becoming even more valuable in a fast-moving AI world. As technology gets better at creating content, music, images, and experiences digitally, the value of real human energymay actually increase. If you are a retreat leader looking for creative retreat activities, ways to improve your guest experience, or ideas that help your retreat stand out, this episode will make you think differently about what belongs on your itinerary. In This Episode You'll Learn Why live music can elevate a retreat experience How art and creativity support deeper connection Why guests remember feelings more than schedules How music can help people become more present The difference between recorded or AI-generated music and a live human performance Why in-person experiences are becoming more valuable in the AI era How retreat leaders can use music and art to create emotional anchors Why creative retreat activities can improve guest satisfaction, referrals, and repeat attendance Key Takeaways Retreats Are Felt, Not Just Attended Your guests may forget the exact order of the workshops. They will remember how the experience made them feel. Live Music Changes the Room There is something different about having a real person creating music in real time. Guests feel the energy, imperfection, emotion, and connection. AI Can Create Music. It Cannot Recreate Human Presence. Technology can create incredibly impressive music. What it cannot reproduce is the shared experience of being in a room with another human being creating something live. Art Creates Emotional Anchors A song, painting, creative workshop, or shared artistic experience can become one of the strongest memories someone takes home from a retreat. Retreat Leaders Should Think Beyond Content You do not need another workshop just because there is an empty hour on the schedule. Sometimes the better choice is music, art, nature, conversation, or simply space to experience the moment. About Christine Baird Christine Baird is a singer, songwriter, and musician whose career has taken her from musical theatre to the Montreux Jazz Festival, from wedding singing in New York City to pursuing her solo career in Austin, Texas. She has performed with Sofar Sounds in New York, Los Angeles, and Austin and was recruited as a contestant for Season 26 of NBC's The Voice. Christine has opened for acclaimed artists including Morgan James at Austin's legendary Antone's Nightclub and Texas artist Red Shahan at Salt Lake City's Garage on Beck. Her vocals have also been featured on popular EDM tracks that have generated more than 13 million streams.

How Shannon Met Christine (00:01:39) Shannon shares how she discovered Christine's magical voice at a winery and was so moved she hired her for retreats. Live Music vs. AI (00:03:35) The conversation explores how live music offers an emotional, human experience that AI-generated music simply cannot replicate. The Effort and Authenticity of Singing (00:04:36) Christine explains that singing is a physical, emotional effort, an instrument from within the body, unlike AI's effortless polish. The Human Brain is Rejecting AI (00:07:43) Shannon and Christine discuss how people are subconsciously starting to recognize and dismiss content created by artificial intelligence. Christine's Musical Journey (00:09:20) Christine shares her background, from musical theater in New York to finding her authentic voice and moving to Austin. The Power of Music at Retreats (00:13:30) Christine discusses how live music's frequency can literally change the biology and energy of a room and its attendees. Creating a Transformative Experience (00:17:40) Shannon praises Christine's ability to engage the crowd, giving them permission to dance, sing, or simply listen and feel. Christine's Long-Term Dreams (00:19:36) Christine shares her vision of connecting with large audiences, aiming to create uplifting experiences rather than just seeking fame. Dealing with Haters and Criticism (00:22:20) The discussion turns to handling online negativity and how life experience builds the strength to stay authentic despite criticism. The Unnatural Nature of Online Comments (00:26:49) Christine shares the perspective that comment sections are unnatural because humans were not designed to hear everyone's unfiltered thoughts. Favorite Music and Original Songs (00:29:48) Christine talks about her love for 70s and 80s music and her process of incorporating her original songs into sets. The Importance of Presence in Performance (00:33:12) Christine explains that staying present and authentic during a performance is key to creating a genuine emotional connection with the audience.

Le management épuise quand le manager doit sembler invincible. Comment préserver son énergie et continuer à faire vivre le collectif ?Dans cet épisode, Delphine Zanelli reçoit Denis Pennel, conférencier, ancien directeur général de la World Employment Confederation et coauteur de 50 conseils pour retrouver l'énergie du travail.Selon l'étude Apec Santé mentale chez les cadres et les managers, publiée le 9 octobre 2025, 58 % des managers déclarent ressentir souvent ou occasionnellement un niveau de stress intense dans le cadre professionnel. 57 % considèrent que laisser transparaître leurs difficultés et leurs souffrances altère leur légitimité professionnelle.Ces chiffres font apparaître une tension concrète. Les managers doivent soutenir leurs équipes tout en dissimulant parfois ce qui les fragilise. Cette tension traverse le management et pose une question de responsabilité : comment créer de la confiance et mettre les autres en mouvement lorsque sa propre énergie est déjà fortement sollicitée ?À la rentrée, cette tension devient particulièrement visible. Les agendas se remplissent, les équipes se retrouvent et les managers doivent relancer la dynamique collective alors qu'ils ne disposent pas toujours de l'énergie nécessaire.Denis Pennel explique pourquoi la posture du leader infaillible consomme une énergie considérable. Maintenir une façade de maîtrise empêche de consacrer cette énergie au changement, à la confiance et à la mise en mouvement des équipes. La vulnérabilité devient alors une question de lien et de responsabilité. Elle consiste à reconnaître son état et à expliquer ce qui peut influencer sa disponibilité.L'échange présente trois batteries à surveiller : la batterie physique, la batterie mentale et la batterie émotionnelle. Sommeil, mouvement, pauses, temps de réflexion, accueil des émotions et récupération deviennent des sujets directement liés à la pratique managériale. Denis Pennel distingue aussi le repos de la récupération, qui permet réellement de recharger ses ressources.La conversation amène également les managers à reprendre la main sur leur agenda. Poser une intention avant de commencer sa journée, préserver des plages de réflexion, savoir dire non et déléguer permettent de protéger le temps nécessaire au métier de manager. L'intérêt collectif aide aussi à éviter une individualisation permanente des demandes, qui augmente la charge mentale.Denis Pennel invite enfin à capitaliser sur ses forces, à alterner routine et défi, puis à organiser son activité selon des cycles d'énergie. Cette approche relie la performance au plaisir au travail, à l'engagement des collaborateurs et à la capacité du leader à rester aligné avec ses valeurs.La considération occupe une place centrale dans cette conversation. Elle reconnaît le travail effectué et la singularité de la personne. Elle nourrit la confiance, la reconnaissance et le sentiment d'être respecté dans l'organisation.Le management devient alors une question de circulation d'énergie. Cet épisode donne des éléments concrets pour préserver ses ressources, reprendre la maîtrise de son agenda, poser des limites, déléguer, accueillir sa vulnérabilité et renforcer l'engagement des collaborateurs.CHAPITRAGE(00:00) Pourquoi les managers manquent d'énergie (04:47) Le mensonge du leader invincible (08:11) Les trois batteries de l'énergie (14:15) Capitaliser sur ses forces (21:59) Dire non et déléguer (26:10) Recharger le physique et le mental (33:31) Être aligné et considérer les autres (41:55) Le test de l'énergie en fin de journée

Itamar Syn-Hershko has been a tech guy since he was a wee lad - IE he was teaching his kindergarten teachers how to use their computers. He learned how to "do stuff" tech wise through playing games back in the day. Back in the day he was one of the original developers on a document based database, as well as building a consulting company. Outside of tech, he is the father of 5 kids, all of them 7 and under... so his hands are quite full. That said, he does enjoy learning new things and traveling, when he has the time. Itamar founded a boutique consulting agency, helping businesses succeed in data related projects. Like most smart agencies, they built tools to help them to do their jobs better. One of these tools became highly popular, and after 1.5 years of selling this tool to customers, they hit a $1m in annual recurring revenue. This is the creation story of NeverBlink AI.

On this week's episode, we share our first impressions of the 2026 Toyota BZ Woodland, a 375-hp all-wheel-drive EV that promises more space, extra ground clearance, and a little off-road attitude. But is the Woodland really built for the wilderness—or is it better thought of as a quick, practical electric station wagon? We discuss its surprising acceleration, EPA-rated range, cargo area, infotainment and controls, and overly sensitive driver-monitoring system. Plus, we answer an audience question about why cars don't have automatic rain-sensing rear wipers, which turned into a debate over whether cars really need rear windshield wipers at all.

On this week's episode, we share our first impressions of the 2026 Toyota BZ Woodland, a 375-hp all-wheel-drive EV that promises more space, extra ground clearance, and a little off-road attitude. But is the Woodland really built for the wilderness—or is it better thought of as a quick, practical electric station wagon? We discuss its surprising acceleration, EPA-rated range, cargo area, infotainment and controls, and overly sensitive driver-monitoring system. Plus, we answer an audience question about why cars don't have automatic rain-sensing rear wipers, which turned into a debate over whether cars really need rear windshield wipers at all.

Cet épisode s'inscrit dans une série de rencontres avec des patrons de sociétés du CAC 40.Sur GDIY nous recevons habituellement uniquement des personnes qui se sont lancées par elles-mêmes : des entrepreneurs, artistes, sportifs…Avec cette série, j'ai pour ambition de découvrir et comprendre comment s'opèrent de tels mastodontes depuis l'intérieur, sur du temps long. Au-delà des éléments de langage, au-delà de la politique, au-delà des clichés.Tout le monde connaît Saint-Gobain, mais personne ne sait vraiment ce que fait ce géant.De l'industrie ? De la construction ? De la rénovation ? Oui mais pas que.Benoit Bazin, arrivé dans la maison en 1999, à la direction générale depuis 2019 et aujourd'hui PDG clame fièrement son ambition : “être le leader mondial de la construction durable”.En 360 ans, une verrerie fondée sur commande de Louis XIV est devenue l'un des groupes les plus tentaculaires du CAC 40, capable aussi bien de déposer douze couches atomiques sur du verre pour réaliser le cockpit du Rafale que de produire et distribuer chaque année des millions de plaques de placo.Depuis qu'il a les rênes du groupe en main, Benoit a entrepris et réussi deux restructurations extrêmement lourdes.La première est financière.Dès 2019, il choisit de se séparer d'un quart des activités du groupe. Il cède l'équivalent de 10 des 40 milliards d'euros de chiffre d'affaires de l'époque et se lance dans une série d'acquisitions préparées en amont.La seconde est humaine.Benoit retourne complètement la gouvernance du groupe et met fin à une organisation classique par métier. À la place, il nomme un ou une responsable par pays qui opère toutes les activités du groupe sur son territoire, gère ses propres équipes, ses politiques tarifaires, ses canaux de distribution et jusqu'à 10 millions d'investissement, peut implanter une nouvelle usine sans en référer à Paris.Témoin du succès de ces deux chantiers, le cours de bourse de Saint-Gobain a triplé depuis le début de l'ère Bazin.Benoit revient sur ces années de transformation et sur les défis auxquels Saint-Gobain doit aujourd'hui faire face : continuer la transition vers le bas carbone, déployer l'IA dans tout le groupe et innover malgré l'instabilité politique et la fragmentation de l'Europe.Une discussion sincère, avec un homme calme et méthodique, à la tête de la plus vieille entreprise du CAC 40.Vous pouvez suivre Benoit sur LinkedIn.Profitez de 10% de réduction pendant 1 mois sur le site de Point P avec le code GDIY10 : https://www.pointp.fr/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=generation-gdiy-benoit-bazin&wiz_content=podcast-gdiy&wiz_term=partVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Vendre un quart de ses activités et dire au revoir à 10 milliards d'euros de CA00:09:25 : Le triptyque à surveiller pour repérer les talents00:22:13 : Chamonix : premier témoin du changement climatique00:26:42 : "La construction c'est 35% du CO2 émis", comment changer les choses ?00:35:39 : MaPrimeRénov' : énième exemple d'une bonne idée très mal exécutée00:42:46 : Allemands, Pays nordiques, USA : où sont les meilleurs modèles pour nos constructions ?00:49:36 : Avancer malgré l'instabilité politique00:57:40 : "On a absolument besoin d'un vrai marché européen unique"01:03:47 : L'importance d'avoir des ingénieurs, beaucoup d'ingénieurs01:07:28 : "La dépense publique dysfonctionne, ça ne peut pas durer trop longtemps"01:18:23 : Repenser de A à Z l'organisation d'un groupe de 160 000 collaborateurs01:30:40 : Allouer son capital aux bons endroits01:37:05 : Les coulisses d'une acquisition record à 2,7 milliards d'euros01:52:46 : Ses clés pour réussir une intégration01:59:08 : Les grands principes de management de Benoit02:03:12 : Pourquoi l'industrie est en retard sur l'adoption de l'IA ?02:10:28 : Rester coté au CAC 40 ou céder aux sirènes de la bourse américaine ?02:15:15 : Tripler son cours de bourse en 5 ansLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #511 - Camille Jaccoux - Black Crows - L'icône de la culture ski à la française#388 - Benoit Lemaignan - Verkor - “Pour avoir de l'impact climatique il faut aller vite et fort”#505 - Mingpo Cai - Cathay Capital - De la chine profonde aux sommets du capital-investissementNous avons parlé de :Saint-GobainLe Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyÉcole nationale des ponts et chausséesL'écroulement de la face ouest des Drus en 2005Point PLe Diagnostic de Performance ÉnergétiqueNotre film “Comment la Chine est devenue imbattable ?”Le rachat de l'industrielle australien CSR par Saint-Gobain pour 2,7 milliards d'eurosAcquisition de ChrysoLes recommandations de lecture :Voies de passage - Benoit Bazin et Laurent BergerEt la lumière fut - Jacques LusseyranUn grand MERCI à nos sponsors : Squarespace : https://squarespace.com/doitQonto: https://qonto.com/r/2i7tk9 Brevo: brevo.com/doit eToro: https://bit.ly/3GTSh0k Payfit: payfit.com Club Med : clubmed.frCuure : https://cuure.com/product-onely (code DOIT)Vous pouvez retrouver la liste de tout le matériel utilisé pour enregistrer nos épisodes sur cette page.Vous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

What if the problem isn't the training—but the way we think about performance? In this episode of Performance Matters, Bob Mosher sits down with Guy Wallace to explore why traditional learning approaches often fall short and what it takes to design learning that actually supports performance on the job. They discuss performance-based design, the importance of understanding the real performance context, and why performance support can be more valuable than asking employees to simply memorize information.

I’m so excited to bring you this wonderful interview with Mr. Chu Zhu. He is the founder of a company called Somnus Lab, and they make an amazing mattress cooling sleep system to help you regulate your body temperature during sleep. Chu is a scientifically sophisticated guest who explains some fascinating aspects of circadian rhythm and the hormonal processes governing sleep, including the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus—the “light control tower” in the brain—and the buildup of adenosine that creates sleep pressure. We talk about why outdoor light is such a powerful signal for your body clock, why indoor lighting doesn't come close to matching it, and how caffeine masks the buildup of adenosine rather than eliminating your need for sleep. We then get into the surprising role of body temperature. You need to cool down to fall asleep, stay cool to stay asleep, and warm up to wake up. Chu explains the surprising reason a warm shower before bed can actually help lower your core temperature, why getting too cold can backfire, and why temperature regulation becomes increasingly challenging as we age. I’ve also been beta testing the Somnus system myself, so we talk about how it can automatically regulate the temperature of your mattress throughout the night, customize each side of the bed, and track sleep without requiring you to wear a device. And if you’re someone who loves your sleep-tracking data, we have an important conversation about why more data isn't necessarily better. This episode will make you think differently about what you're doing to get better sleep: we get into the technology, but also the general behaviors that can help us get things right—including the effects of caffeine and alcohol, how sensitive the body is, and how sometimes we can simply get out of the way. It’s a great reminder that getting better sleep and better health may be less complicated than we think. TIMESTAMPS: Chu discovered some surprising things when he got in to the sleep system technology research. [04:40] Circadian rhythm is very important in regulating how we use sleeping time. [05:49] The hypothalamus is the control center of the brain that receives the light and dark cycles governing our sleep cycles. [07:33] Caffeine is able to take the spot of the brain's receptor that is supposed to take in adensoine to tell you if you are tired. [08:30] If we look at the evolutionary timelline, we see how the sunset and sunrise used to determine our sleep patterns, whereas now we have the lights and screens that don't allow these mechanisms to work naturally. [11:23] Also the access to processed foods and sugars, the empty calories are causing problems nowadays. The difference between direct sunlight and the indoor blue light we are exposed to also makes a big difference. [12:16] Every system in human body has a mechanism to pull it one way and the other way to push it so that you basically have a two-directional regulation system almost in every aspect. [16:35] So the important thing to do in the morning is awaken naturally near sunrise and get some direct esxposure to light, and then know that in the evening is where most of the problems happen. [17:35] Wearing blue screening glasses during the day is completely wrong. [19:16] Body temperature and environmental temperature are very important parts of the ability to fall asleep. [21:23] You need to cool down to fall asleep and you need to stay cool to stay asleep. You need to warm up to wake up. [23:31] Take a warm shower which allows the body temperature to drop and then bed covers or pajamas keep your skin at a comfortable temperature, but it is really important to have the room or the mattress temperature promoting a drop in body temp. [28:13] There are four sleep stages: preparation to sleep, deep sleep, then REM sleep and waking up stage. [32:37] How do you determine whether you're getting these factors dialed in? Is it as simple as waking up and feeling alert and energized? [34:48] The Somnus sleep system is simply a mattress cover like the protective cover you have on your mattress, that is filled with water that creates a cool sleeping environment. [37:27] How does this Somnus monitor your sleep so that you have sleep data? [50:07] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com B.rad Whey Protein Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

I find myself thinking about the people who show us what it truly means to serve humanity. And when I think of that kind of leadership, Nelson Mandela tops my list.His grace. His courage. His forgiveness. His kindness.No matter how busy he was as president of South Africa, he always had time to shake the hand of a cleaner, offer a word of encouragement to a server, or share a laugh with a child.The true measure of a person is how they treat those who can do nothing for them.As I think about it, though, I believe the real secret of his magic was that he was an absolute master of staying focused on his mission.Through times of ease and nights of darkness, he relentlessly stayed true to his ideal of a free and democratic South Africa. A place where all could flourish, regardless of their skin color or ethnic origin.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

What if becoming unshakable has less to do with pushing harder and more to do with learning how to recover? In this solo episode of Becoming Unshakable, I'm talking about something leaders often undervalue until they have already hit the wall: intentional recovery. We spend so much time thinking about performance, results, responsibility, and caring for the people around us that it can become easy to overlook the person carrying all of that weight. But sustained performance requires capacity, and capacity has to be restored. I share why I believe leaders should begin thinking of themselves as high-performance corporate athletes. We look at what we can learn from athletes like LeBron James and the Williams sisters, who invest enormous amounts of time and attention into maintaining the bodies and minds that allow them to perform at the highest level. That same thinking applies inside our workplaces. I talk about rebalancing workloads, creating white space in calendars, paying attention to team capacity, and building recovery practices into everyday life. That might mean sleeping, walking, meditation, prayer, hydration, quiet thinking time, or simply creating enough space to stop operating in constant reaction mode. I also share a moment from my own leadership journey when I realized I had added one more responsibility to an already overwhelmed team member. It forced me to reconsider what was on her plate, what could be delegated, and what leadership looks like when we take capacity seriously. Most importantly, this episode examines the inward side of caring leadership. Caring for others matters deeply, but we cannot continually give people the best of ourselves while giving ourselves whatever happens to be left over. I learned that lesson by hitting more walls than I would have liked. My hope is that after listening to this, you don't have to. What would change if you began treating your own recovery as seriously as you treat your responsibilities to everyone else? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with me.

What is your child saying to themselves when they make a mistake?“I'm terrible at this.”“I'll never get it.”“Maybe I'm just not talented enough.”Those statements may sound harmless in the moment—but repeated negative self-talk can begin shaping what a child believes about themselves.In Episode 162 of High Performance Parenting, Greg Francis continues his Champion Mindset conversation with his daughter Crissy as they explore the connection between self-talk, mental toughness, preparation, discipline, and performance.Crissy openly shares that she can be her own worst critic and has had to intentionally change the way she speaks to herself on the tennis court and in everyday life.In this episode, you'll discover:Why champions aren't simply born with stronger mindsHow mental toughness can be intentionally developedWhy negative self-talk affects performanceHow children unintentionally reinforce limiting beliefsWhat athletes can say after mistakes instead of attacking themselvesWhy discipline now prevents regret laterHow physical preparation and mental preparation work togetherWhy children need to focus on what they can controlHow to help kids stop comparing their circumstances to othersWhy becoming champion-minded requires changing daily habitsCrissy explains that instead of reacting to a mistake with frustration, she's learning to respond with thoughts such as “It wasn't my best, but it was closer.” That seemingly small shift helps her remain in a productive mental state rather than spiraling into criticism.Greg also shares an important warning:Your subconscious starts believing what you repeatedly tell it.That's why helping kids develop healthy, truthful, productive self-talk is about much more than sports.It's preparing them for life.
Nathan's guest this episode is Pete Johnson, Field CTO of AI at MongoDB, and the conversation is really two conversations woven together: a history of database architecture, and a status report on the still-unsolved problem of agent memory. Pete opens with a framing device that recurs throughout — he was born in February 1970, four months before E.F. Codd's original relational-model paper that gave rise to SQL. The relational model, he explains, was built for a world where storage was the scarce resource, so normalization — splitting data across linked tables to avoid duplication — was the rational design choice.

Arsenal made it two wins from two with a controlled 1–0 victory at Villa Park, Bukayo Saka providing the decisive moment on a night when the champions dominated possession without ever fully cutting loose.We break down a difficult first half, Christos Tzolis' contrasting evening after his impressive start to the season, the impact of Eberechi Eze and Bruno Guimarães from the bench, and Cristian Mosquera's role in the move that created the winning goal.There is also plenty to discuss around Arsenal's game management. Was this simply a mature away performance from a side confident in its defensive strength, or did the handbrake return once Arsenal went ahead? We look at Mikel Arteta's substitutions, the balance between control and aggression, and what the introduction of Bruno could mean for the speed and directness of Arsenal's midfield.Elsewhere, the refereeing at Villa Park comes under scrutiny, Kai Havertz and Viktor Gyökeres spark another discussion about Arsenal's centre-forward hierarchy, and He Said What? brings the post-match reaction into focus.Continue the discussion with us.Follow The NN Pod for more Arsenal and football content.All our links: https://beacons.ai/thennpodChapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(03:43) - Villa Sit Deep as Arsenal Control Possession(09:37) - Arsenal's First-Half Rhythm Problems(12:11) - Tzolis Off, Eze On(14:15) - Saka, Maatsen & the First VAR Controversy(17:58) - 0-1 | Saka Finishes Mosquera's Breakthrough Move(20:42) - Arsenal Drop Off After Taking the Lead(21:18) - Bruno Changes the Tempo(23:58) - The Late Penalty Arsenal Didn't Get(25:24) - Villa Park, Saka & Refereeing Consistency(28:11) - Match Metrics & Mosquera's Performance(28:11) - He Said What?: Arteta, Saka & Matty Cash React(34:51) - Controlled Away Win or Handbrake Football?(42:16) - What Eze, Bruno & Konsa Could Change(47:42) - Havertz vs Gyökeres: Arsenal's Striker Hierarchy(54:00) - Two Wins, Two Clean Sheets & Final Thoughts

Gary Gray is widely known throughout the movement and rehabilitation industry as the “Father of Function.” He is the Founder, CEO, and Chief Content Creator of Gray Institute® and GIFT (Gray Institute for Functional Transformation), the organization he built more than four decades ago in Adrian, Michigan, originally as a physical therapy clinic, performance training facility, and educational institution. Gary is the originator of Applied Functional Science® (AFS), a discipline he developed alongside Dr. David Tiberio that reframes the human body as an integrated chain reaction rather than a collection of isolated parts. Over his career, Gary has worked with elite athletes including Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, and his teaching has shaped a generation of clinicians and coaches across the sports medicine and performance industries. His contributions to the field earned him the John H.P. Maley Award for Outstanding Contributions to Leadership in Research from the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). Gary also founded Free2Play® (Free2Play Academy, Inc.®), a non-profit organization that uses movement to transform the lives of children around the world.

Bill shares how his wife's own experience prompted him to investigate why previously effective calorie deficits may produce very different results during the menopause transition.They discuss the limits of existing fat-loss research, why tracking accuracy still matters, and Bill's current study comparing weight-loss responses in premenopausal versus peri- and early postmenopausal women. Bill also unpacks his fascinating case series using an extremely aggressive four-day, high-protein fat-loss protocol, where resistance-trained women lost fat while largely maintaining lean mass—and maintained that fat loss a month later. Highlights What Bill means by “weight loss resistance”—and why it doesn't mean calories no longer matter Why menopause-specific fat-loss research is still surprisingly limited Bill's wife's experience with perimenopause, HRT and changing body composition The four-day rapid fat-loss protocol: very low calories, high protein and six hours of walking daily Why short, aggressive dieting may differ dramatically from prolonged crash dietingDr. Bill Campbell is a Professor of Exercise Science and the Director of The Performance and Physique Enhancement Lab at the University of South Florida. He has his PhD in Exercise, Nutrition, and Preventive Health, he's authored 3 books on sports nutrition and over 200 scientific abstracts and manuscripts focused on the topics of sports nutrition and exercise science and is previous president of the international society of sports nutrition.Dr Campbell uses his education background to provide an informational channel on IG that busts myths on dieting and helps inform people on best practice.
