Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performance without alignment leads to burnout and emotional exhaustion. This episode shows you how identity shifts happen in the body, not the mind — and how to live from truth instead of performance. A gentle, embodied recalibration.If you've ever wondered why you continue showing up as the strong one — even when you're tired, even when you know better, even when your spirit is asking for something gentler — this episode is for you.This week, we've been uncovering the identity story beneath high performance: the role you learned to play in order to be safe, chosen, or loved. Today, we move from awareness to embodiment.Because identity does not shift through insight alone. Insight is the invitation. Embodiment is the acceptance.Your nervous system has been loyal to the identity that once protected you. It isn't resisting growth — it's guarding belonging. This is why performance patterns feel so automatic, even when they no longer fit.In this episode, we explore:• Why your body keeps choosing the familiar (even when it's draining) • How safety — not self-discipline — is what allows identity to shift • The real marker of transformation: staying with yourself in the moment you would have abandoned yourself • How to live from your truest identity now, without collapsing your life or losing your excellenceThis is not mindset work or behavior management. This is Identity-Level Recalibration — the root-level shift that makes every other tool effective again.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhen you feel yourself slipping into performance mode, pause for one breath. Hand to ribs or abdomen. Ask gently: “Am I choosing from fear or from truth?” Don't fix. Don't correct. Just notice. Noticing is becoming.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performers often fear that if they stop performing, they'll lose success. In this episode, learn why that fear exists and how to shift into a way of succeeding that doesn't cost your peace, your presence, or yourself.Many high-capacity humans hold a quiet fear:If I stop performing, I'll lose everything I've built.Because for so long, success has been defined as up and to the right — more impact, more producing, more proving. When your spirit begins craving stillness, spaciousness, or a different way of being, it often feels like failure.This episode reframes that fear.You do not need to abandon your excellence to step out of performance.The shift is not to do less — the shift is to do what you do from who you truly are.We explore how identity memory shapes the nervous system and how performance patterns are not signs of weakness, but signs of loyalty to the identity that once kept you safe. When your system receives evidence that it is safe to be your truer self, success becomes something deeper, more grounded, and more aligned.We look to Vera Wang, who did not reinvent herself — she returned to herself. Her path reminds us that growth doesn't always look linear. Success doesn't always look like acceleration. True expansion begins when you stop leaving yourself behind.This is where Identity-Level Recalibration comes in — not as a mindset tactic or behavior hack, but as the root-level shift that allows you to succeed without abandoning your spirit.Micro Recalibration (Today)When you feel the pull to perform or prove, pause.Place your hand low on your abdomen and say:“I can remain powerful and let my spirit breathe.”Not a correction. A permission.Team / Leadership ExtensionAsk in your next planning or check-in conversation:“Are we choosing this because it looks like progress — or because it feels like alignment?”This restores clarity, presence, and integrity.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Even in retirement, small expenses can quietly drain your income — until you take a closer look. In this episode, Joe Curry shares how a simple personal cashflow audit saved him over $2,000 a year and outlines practical steps retirees can use to find — and fix — their own hidden money leaks. Perfect for Canadians focused on tax-efficient retirement income planning and smarter spending. Key Takeaways Small leaks sink big ships — even in retirement. Performing a personal cashflow audit can uncover significant amounts in annual savings. Subscriptions add up fast. Many retirees pay for apps, streaming services, or memberships they've forgotten about. Canceling unused ones can free up hundreds of dollars a year. Your needs change in retirement — your insurance should too. Review life, home, and auto coverage regularly to make sure you're not overpaying for outdated protection. Tax inefficiency is an invisible leak. Pulling income from the wrong accounts or missing opportunities like CPP deferral can quietly cost thousands in unnecessary taxes. Question your habits. Routines you've "always done" — from premium cell plans to cable TV — may not serve your retirement lifestyle anymore.

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with acclaimed pianist and composer, Chloe Flower. Born in Pennsylvania, Chloe began playing piano at age two, later studying at the Manhattan School of Music Pre-College and London's Royal Academy of Music. A classically trained pianist turned genre-bender, she calls her unique style “popsical” (a fusion of classical, pop, and hip-hop). She has collaborated with major artists like Céline Dion, Babyface, Nas, and Cardi B (whose 2019 Grammy performance she helped elevate). Beyond music, Chloe is a passionate advocate for music education and anti-human trafficking efforts.In this episode, Ari and Chloe dive into her artistic journey. They discuss everything from rigorous classical training to creating a hybrid genre that seemed nonexistent before her. Chloe explains how she navigates the music business, and the lessons she's learned from bridging two very distinct worlds. Ari and Chloe talk about label strategy, collaboration with big-name artists and producers, and maintaining authenticity while scaling. Chloe shares her approach to building a personal brand (both musically and visually), her perspective on empowering women in the industry, and how she sees the future of genre-fluid music and education. https://www.instagram.com/misschloeflower05:00 – The Holiday Album and Women Composers10:30 – Understanding Public Domain and Classical Music Rights15:45 – YouTube Covers, Metadata, and Going Independent19:00 – Meeting Babyface and Blending Genres25:00 – The Viral Grammy Performance with Cardi B29:30 – Evolving Sound and the Role of Collaboration33:00 – Running an Independent Label and Revenue Streams36:00 – Pros and Cons of Major vs. Indie Labels47:00 – Music Education and Inspiring the Next Generation54:00 – Performing with Orchestras and ConductorsEdited and mixed by Peter SchruppMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.

Joy's Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/upleveling/id1799955082 Saboteurs Assement: https://www.positiveintelligence.com/saboteurs/ --- You weren't born to perform, unless you're Meryl Streep (She's soooooo good). You were born to be you. But somewhere along the line, most of us got the message that we had to shape-shift, overdeliver, or hide our truth to fit in. In this episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, I'm calling out the masks we wear at work, in relationships, even in our own self-talk, and how to let them go gently. Because being palatable isn't the goal, being aligned is. What I get into: The Saboteur voices behind performance patterns. How your Sage knows who you truly are. Why ditching people-pleasing is the ultimate freedom move. A simple Positive Intelligence practice to break the perform/doubt cycle. How I support clients in Mindset Breakthrough to stop proving and start living. If you've been trying to earn your worth or audition for love and success, this episode is your gentle but firm invitation to put the script down and come home to yourself.

For the first time in history, a human bladder was transplanted. Dr. Nima Nassiri (UCLA) joins Dr. Ruchika Talwar to share how his team completed this landmark operation alongside a kidney transplant. He walks through the clinical scenario, key steps in donor and recipient selection, and how years of preclinical work informed the operative approach. --- SYNPOSIS The conversation explores the broader future of bladder transplant surgery, from ethical considerations to the potential for merging bladder transplantation with tolerance-induction protocols that could one day eliminate the need for lifelong immunosuppression. Dr. Nassiri reflects on the importance of patient-first decision-making, teamwork, and careful innovation as the field moves toward new possibilities in restorative urology and transplant medicine. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction02:51 - The Path to Bladder Transplant Surgery05:00 - Scientific Challenges and Barriers06:45 - Patient Selection and Initial Outcomes12:28 - Quality of Life Considerations14:18 - Performing the First Bladder Transplant18:59 - Donor Matching21:28 - Ethical Considerations24:51 - Research Gaps and Future Prospects --- RESOURCES Clinical Trial: Vascularized Composite Bladder Allograft Transplantationhttps://www.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05462561 Clinical Trial: Retro-active Immunological Tolerance in Patients With Well-functioning Pre-existing HLA-identical Kidney Transplantshttps://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05525507

Three actions were performed at the bottom of the altar on the southwest side, as derived from verses in the Torah. The bird burnt offering was usually brought on the southeast side so that the kohen could be close to the beit hadeshen, where parts of the bird were discarded. Three actions were performed at the top of the altar on the southwest side, and the kohen performing the action would go directly there instead of walking around the altar entirely. The reason was to avoid damaging the items from the smoke rising at the top of the altar. The Mishna describes in detail how the bird sin offering was performed. A braita provides a source explaining why the blood of this offering was placed on the lower part of the altar and not the upper part, as is done with the animal sin offering and the bird burnt offering. Two different versions of how to perform melika are presented—one in the name of Rav and one from a braita. It was known to be one of the more difficult actions the kohen had to perform. Performing the kmitza on the meal offering and the chafina with the incense on Yom Kippur were also known to be challenging. The Mishna describes in detail how the bird burnt offering was performed. Some elements were similar to the sin offering, yet many differed. For example, the head was not severed in the sin offering, but was in the burnt offering. The entire bird was eaten by the kohanim in the sin offering, whereas the burnt offering was completely burned, aside from the parts tossed into the beit hadeshen (crop, feathers, and innards). Other differences include the laws regarding sacrificing with intent for the wrong type of offering. The sin offering is disqualified, as with animal offerings, while the burnt offering is not. Regular laws of pigul apply to both.

What is the difference between contemporary dance and performance art?This fusion finds profound representation in the work of VestAndPage, the renowned artist duo comprising Verena Stenke (Germany) and Andrea Pagnes (Italy). Since their founding in 2006, VestAndPage has redefined contemporary performance art through their exploration of social, political, and environmental themes. Their work delves into fragility, memory activation, and transformation, heavily influenced by their backgrounds in philosophy and theater. In 2020, they released their Manifesto on Performance-Based Filmmaking: Poetics of Relations as a video article in the Journal of Embodied Research, solidifying their thought leadership in performance art and filmmaking. Their art transcends traditional boundaries, incorporating formats such as “collective performance operas” and “temporary artistic communities” that inspire collaboration and connection. Since 2021, Verena and Andrea have extended their influence as founders and co-directors of the Venice International Performance Art Week. In this episode, we explored how to navigate across artistic disciplines and roles and discussed the importance of viewing the world through an alternative lens.

Der verrottete Apfel im Apfelkorb? Oder doch nur einer, der nie richtig gewaschen wurde?Als Change Manager begegne ich regelmäßig Führungskräften und Projektleitern, die entweder selbst schnell überfordert wirken oder unter mangelnder Peer-Performance leiden. Und oft höre ich: "Die Führungskraft kann's nicht." Doch wenn ich genauer hinschaue, sehe ich etwas anderes: Chaotisches Onboarding. Unklare Erwartungen. Null Verbindlichkeit.Mit Carina Scharf von humanique solutions diskutiere ich deshalb diese Thema aus mehreren Perspektiven: Carina bringt als ehemalige HR-Direktorin das breite Spektrum an systemischen Lösungsansätzen mit – von Performance-Analyse über Entwicklungspläne bis zur Etablierung einer Leistungskultur. Ich setze mit dem Leadership Pitstop am Anfang an: Führungskräfte sicher und erfolgreich in ihre neue Rolle bringen. Denn die meisten "Low Performer" sind Führungskräfte, die nie die Chance auf einen sauberen Start hatten --> https://www.pitstop-consulting.de/angebote/leadershipViel Spass beim Zuhören!Euer Maik

Forget the glow-up, it's time to do the grow-up. Episode Overview Growth isn't about filters, hashtags, or curated glow‑ups — it's about the inner work that fuels authentic transformation. In this episode of Empowering Real Talk, we cut through the noise and call out the performative side of “growth.” Forget chasing clout or external validation. Real growth is messy, uncomfortable, and deeply personal — and it demands accountability, consistency, and commitment. This isn't about looking the part; it's about living it.Why This Episode Matters Too many people are performing growth — posting about it, talking about it, but not living it. This conversation strips away the BS and gets raw about what real transformation looks like. If you're ready to stop performing and start transforming, this episode will challenge you to step into your truth and commit to the work that actually changes your life.
