This week, I sit down with Michele Scherr to explore a deeply human and often overlooked part of major life transitions:The loss of identity that can occur when familiar roles fall away.Whether leaving the military, healthcare, corporate life, sport, or any structured environment, the first twelve months can be one of the most vulnerable periods for mental health.Even with strong support systems, many people quietly struggle with one powerful question:“Who am I now?”In this powerful conversation, Michele explains why recovery is not about chasing more programs, retreats, or quick fixes — it's about building a stable foundation rooted in self-understanding.We explore how identity loss impacts purpose, emotional wellbeing, and direction, and why so many people feel unsettled despite doing “all the right things.”At the core of Michele's work is helping people reconnect with:✔️ Their natural design✔️ Their body's signals✔️ Personal rhythms✔️ What genuinely supports their wellbeingBecause healing becomes far more sustainable when you understand yourself first.We also discuss how personalised routines around sleep, nutrition, movement, and environment can create stability during uncertain times — and why slowing down often creates more clarity than pushing forward.If you are navigating a transition, feeling untethered from who you once were, or searching for meaning in what comes next, this episode offers a grounded reminder:Clarity doesn't come from doing more, it comes from listening.Connect with Michele Scherr:LinkedIn  → linkedin.com/in/michele-scherrWebsite → personalisedhealthandwellbeingsolutions.com.auConnect with Steve:Instagram → https://bit.ly/3KARQhR LinkedIn  → https://bit.ly/48sw8Vj Episode Highlights00:00:00 - Why the first twelve months after transition are the most dangerous00:00:45 - The overwhelm of too many support options00:01:30 - The jigsaw puzzle metaphor and missing foundations00:02:40 - Identity, purpose, and ego during transition00:03:30 - Masks, personas, and adaptation versus authenticity00:04:40 - Listening to the body for personal cues00:05:40 - Sleep, nutrition, movement, and individual design00:06:55 - Adjusting routines to real life circumstances00:08:10 - Creating emotional stability before interventions00:09:20 - Curiosity as the entry point to self understanding00:10:30 - Personalisation, alignment, and sustainability00:11:40 - Healing that feels easy because it fitsABOUT THE PODCAST SHOWThe Noise of Life is a podcast that shares real stories, raw truths, and remarkable growth.

In this insightful conversation, we explore why hunger feels different for everyone and why waiting until you're starving might signal underlying metabolic issues or muscle loss rather than a healthy appetite. Consistently fueling your body with protein-rich meals every 3 to 4 hours is key to preserving lean muscle, a vital element for metabolism, longevity and overall health as we age. Pearl and Serene emphasize that strength training complements this practice by enhancing hunger cues and motivating better food choices. They address challenges such as minimal appetite due to lost muscle, confusing hunger with fear from past dieting experiences, and physical symptoms like shakiness or nausea from prolonged fasting. The discussion highlights the importance of balanced meal timing, sufficient proteinintake from whole foods, and regular exercise to avoid metabolic disruption and prevent eating out of anxiety rather than true hunger. Protein's role goes beyond satiety-it supports daily tissue repair, skin and hair health, and brain function. While supplements can help occasionally, whole food protein meals are recommended to sustain nourishment. Personal preferences and lifestyles shape the best approach, but the overall message encourages mindful eating, consistent nutrition, and movementas the foundation of healthy hunger and metabolism.

In this episode of Owning Your Legacy, host Laurette Rondenet sits down with Brittani Mack, host of Tech Me As I Am, for a powerful conversation on authentic leadership, personal branding, emotional intelligence, and staying grounded in the age of AI.Brittani shares the transformational moment that shifted her life after watching The Call to Courage by Brené Brown. What began as a wake-up call about vulnerability became a deep journey into self-love, identity work, and courageous authenticity. From navigating corporate leadership and corporate culture to building meaningful client relationships, Brittani explains how doing the inner work reshaped her leadership style, her parenting, and her purpose.This episode dives into how leaders can create psychologically safe workplace cultures, why personal branding is rooted in character rather than job titles, and how neurodivergence and ADHD can be leadership strengths rather than limitations. Brittani also speaks candidly about raising four boys, supporting men's mental health, navigating modern masculinity, and breaking generational trauma through emotional awareness, vulnerability, and intentional parenting. The conversation also explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the workplace, why fear around emerging technology is natural, and how human connection, emotional intelligence, and core values remain irreplaceable in an increasingly digital world. Topics covered in this episode include:✅ Authentic leadership and vulnerability in the workplace✅ Personal branding beyond your job title✅ Emotional intelligence and psychological safety at work✅ AI, fear of technology, and staying grounded in a digital world✅ Neurodivergence, ADHD, and creativity as leadership strengths✅ Raising emotionally healthy boys and supporting men's mental health✅ Breaking generational patterns through inner child work✅ Building trust, connection, and influence in corporate environments✅ Human connection as a competitive advantage in the AI eraWhether you are a corporate executive, entrepreneur, sales leader, working professional, parent, or someone navigating identity and career growth, this conversation offers practical leadership insights and mindset strategies for owning who you are — unapologetically.

At 12, he was cutting metal in northern Italy. By 21, he was teaching DMG’s own technicians how to use their machines. At 47, he owns the whole company he first walked into just to set up a machine. Federico Veneziano is the owner of BoldX Industries and an old friend of mine. His story requires two episodes. This is part one: the serendipity, the winding path through shops and countries and setbacks. Part two, we will get into what he’s building now. But first, this is how he got here.

Interview Highlights Teaching the Experts Federico grew up about 60 miles northwest of Milan in a small town called Omegna. He started working in a machine shop at 12 years old. By his early twenties, he had developed deep expertise on Siemens controls, particularly the 840D. When DMG sent technicians to train him on a new machine, they were still new on the control themselves. He ended up helping them. That information got back to DMG headquarters, and they offered him a job. He traveled the world servicing CNC machines. Eventually he proposed an ambitious plan: working three years in the U.S., two years in Germany, three years in China. They agreed. He arrived in the US on August 4, 2004. His English wasn’t great, nobody had booked him a hotel, and he didn’t have a credit card. The first day was rough but he figured it out. The Job That Changed Everything One of Federico's first projects was at American Micro in Batavia, Ohio. The company had been founded in 1957 by a Swiss immigrant. He spent a year there setting up a GMC 35, then Gildemeister's CNC multi-spindle, for a fuel connector job that required gun drilling on a multi-spindle. It had never been done before. The project required developing new spindles and tooling just to make the part work. During that year, he built relationships with the team. When things went wrong with DMG around Christmas 2005, he walked away. He had no plan. It was ten days before the holiday. Then American Micro called. He joined as a process engineer and spent the next two decades working through every department: quality, supply chain, sales, engineering. He became close with the owners, particularly René, one of the founding family’s sons. He bought in as a minority owner, eventually reaching about 14%. He kept that ownership quiet for years. Most people at the company didn’t even know. From Rock Bottom to Owner Then everything hit at once. René passed away. Federico’s father passed within a couple of months. Personal problems piled on. By his own words, it was rock bottom. American Micro was second-generation family owned with no clear succession plan. Federico had tried to buy the company twice before. This time, he decided it was now or never. How does someone go from 14% to sole owner of a company doing $20-25 million in revenue? Federico says it was an amicable transaction where he leveraged multiple things he’d built over the years. He doesn’t go into every detail. But somehow the deal got done. In part two, we’ll get into what he’s building now. BoldX Industries has 125 employees, and Federico says they’re forecasting significant growth. He’s also got a book trilogy coming out. But that’s the next chapter. This one is about how he got here. Question: What twist of fate brought you to your current career?

Allow yourself to ride the waves of life and emotion, and receive the goodness that's coming. You are capable of success. In today's episode of Someone Gets Me, Dianne A. Allen explores what to do when life doesn't unfold the way we expected, especially for intensely sensitive and neurodivergent leaders. She speaks to the emotional waves that follow disappointment and how we can move through them without losing ourselves. Dianne unpacks the hard truth behind self-blame, why receiving support is part of healthy leadership, and how clinging to beliefs that no longer serve us quietly creates more suffering.

In this enlightening conversation on the "Parents is Your Teen College Ready?" show, Shellee Howard interviews Sarah Morgan, a former corporate trainer turned school assembly speaker who focuses on teaching students about emotional resilience and recovery. Sarah shares her compelling personal story of a horseback riding accident that nearly left her quadriplegic, highlighting how her mindset and belief system played a crucial role in her recovery. She emphasizes the importance of understanding emotions through Dr. Albert Ellis's ABC theory, which explains how our beliefs mediate emotional responses rather than the activating events themselves. Sarah discusses the challenges students face today, including bullying, rigid expectations, and the emotional toll of social media and AI, offering practical advice for parents to help their children build emotional resilience. She advocates for leveraging school counselors and educational resources to support teens and encourages parents to foster healthy belief systems in their children to prepare them for college and life beyond. HighlightsSarah Morgan transitioned from corporate leadership training to inspiring teenagers nationwide on emotional resilience.The ABC theory of emotions (Activating event, Belief system, Consequence) is key to managing emotional responses.Sarah's personal story of a near-quadriplegic horseback riding accident underscores the power of mindset in recovery.Addressing bullying and social challenges is central to Sarah's school assemblies, focusing on resilience rather than victimhood.Social media and AI amplify rigid expectations and comparison, increasing anxiety and anger among teens.Parents are encouraged to collaborate with school counselors and use available resources to support their child's emotional health.Embracing failure as a learning tool is critical for long-term success and emotional strength.Key InsightsResilience is a skill that can be taught and cultivated: Sarah's shift from corporate training to youth education reflects a growing recognition that resilience and emotional literacy are essential life skills for young people. By addressing real-life challenges and emotional management, she equips students to navigate uncertainties, setbacks, and social pressures. This proactive approach contrasts with traditional academic focus and prepares teens for holistic success.The ABC model reframes emotional reactions: Sarah highlights Dr. Albert Ellis's ABC theory to illustrate that emotions do not directly result from external events but from the interpretation or belief about those events. This insight is empowering, encouraging students (and adults) to examine and adjust their belief systems, reducing emotional distress and promoting healthier responses. For parents, this model offers a practical framework to help children understand their feelings and reactions constructively.Personal adversity as a teaching tool enhances authenticity: Sarah's detailed recounting of her accident and recovery lends credibility and emotional weight to her message. Her experience illustrates how controlled decisions, like accepting help (helmet use) and maintaining a calm belief system, can dramatically influence outcomes. This personal narrative resonates deeply with students, making the abstract concept of resilience tangible and relatable.Bullying and social challenges are symptoms of broader emotional struggles: Sarah addresses bullying not just as isolated social conflict but as part of the larger emotional resilience framework. She encourages students to recognize their power over their reactions and belief systems rather than letting negative social interactions define their emotional state. This shift from victimhood to empowerment is crucial in creating a supportive school environment.The pervasive influence of social media creates rigid expectations and emotional distress: Sarah points out how constant exposure to curated lives online raises unrealistic standards, fostering anxiety and anger, both manifestations of rigidity in thinking. She teaches the importance of flexible thinking and “lightly held desires,” helping teens manage disappointment and uncertainty in a healthier way. This insight is vital as parents and educators seek to mitigate the negative psychological impacts of digital culture.Failure is an unavoidable and necessary part of growth: Drawing on Dr. Henry Cloud's advice, Sarah stresses that learning to fail and recover is more valuable than avoiding failure altogether. This mindset prepares teens for real-world challenges by building endurance and adaptability. For parents, this means supporting children through setbacks and helping them see failure as a stepping stone to resilience rather than a catastrophe.Parental involvement combined with school resources strengthens emotional support: Sarah urges parents to engage with school counselors and make use of educational materials to foster emotional awareness at home. She recognizes that parents often struggle with their own rigid expectations, which can inadvertently add pressure on children. By working collaboratively with schools and focusing on belief systems, families can create a nurturing environment that prepares teens for the emotional demands of college and adulthood.Extended AnalysisSarah Morgan's approach to emotional resilience is both practical and deeply human. By integrating personal experience with psychological theory, she connects with students on a level that traditional educational programs often miss. Her emphasis on belief systems as the filter for emotional responses challenges the common misconception that external events alone dictate feelings. This insight is revolutionary in emotional education, empowering young people to reclaim control over their mental states, fostering independence and confidence.Moreover, Sarah's recognition of the unique pressures faced by today's youth, exacerbated by social media and AI, reflects an acute understanding of generational challenges. The concept of “rigid expectations” as a root cause of anxiety and anger is particularly insightful. It highlights that emotional difficulties often stem from cognitive inflexibility rather than the events themselves. Teaching teens to hold desires lightly and to accept uncertainty equips them with psychological tools to maintain equilibrium in a rapidly changing world.Her story of survival and recovery from a life-threatening injury adds a powerful narrative dimension, showing resilience not as an abstract ideal but as a lived reality. The specific example of how wearing a helmet and making deliberate choices in the moment saved her from permanent paralysis underscores the intersection of mindset, preparedness, and practical action.For parents, Sarah's advice to utilize school counselors and educational resources acknowledges the complex ecosystem influencing teen emotional health. It reflects the reality that parents cannot do it alone but can play a critical role by fostering open communication and supporting professional guidance. Her caution against conditional self-esteem, a prevalent but harmful mindset, encourages a more stable, intrinsic sense of worth for young people.In sum, Sarah's work exemplifies a modern, nuanced approach to emotional education, one that balances theory, personal experience, and practical strategies to empower the next generation for college and life beyond. Parents, educators, and students alike can benefit from her insights on resilience, emotional awareness, and the power of belief systems to shape our emotional landscapes.Connect with Shellee Howard: WebsiteYouTubeInstagram  LinkedIn  Connect with Sarah Morgan: WebsiteFacebookLinkedInInstagramLinkedIn

Protect your peace, set boundaries, don't let people drain your energy…there's a lot of advice like that, and it's easy to take it a little too far. Therapist and bestselling author Nedra Glover Tawwab joins Forrest to discuss the unintended consequences of the boundaries movement.  They talk about how the helpful concept of boundaries led some toward isolation and rigid standards, and focus on healthy dependency: the reality that we all need other people. Nedra explains the spectrum from codependency to hyper-independence, why your attachment style is more flexible than you think, and how the stories we tell about ourselves become self-fulfilling. Throughout, they focus on developing key aspects of healthy dependency: being able to ask for help, receive support, tolerate distance, feel comfortable in closeness, and repair after conflict.  About our Guest: Nedra Glover Tawwab is a licensed therapist, relationship expert, and best-selling author with over 2 million followers on social media.

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!Sitting down with Abi Dare to talk about her new book, Bring the Outside In, felt like having someone quietly turn on a light in rooms I thought I already understood. We started with the idea of nature in our homes, but very quickly moved far beyond the usual advice about adding more plants or maximizing daylight. Abi shows us how the landscapes we love can become a roadmap for every decision we make — from color palettes pulled from forest canopies and sunsets, to the mix of textures that make a space feel layered and alive. We explored curving shapes, reclaimed materials, and why a sleek piece of glass or metal can still feel deeply connected to the natural world. And then we went even deeper.We talked about prospect and refuge — that powerful instinct to feel protected while still being able to look out — and how it explains everything from our love of restaurant booths to the magic of a window seat. We discussed mystery and enticement, the importance of what you glimpse from one room to the next, and why transitions like hallways deserve far more attention than they usually get. My biggest takeaway? When you let nature lead, the pressure to “get it right” disappears. The choices start to feel intuitive. Personal. Grounded. Let nature do the heavy lifting.Download the free guide to Define Your Signature StyleBuy the book, "Slow Style Home"Learn more at our website Want to finally define your style?

In today's episode, Adam and Sammy talk about what it looks like for church leaders to stand firm in a politically charged moment—without turning the pulpit into a weekly news recap or a social media battlefield. They unpack why the loudest voices often live on the “fringes,” how pastors can feel pressured by ultimatums from both sides, and why “I don't care who gets offended” isn't a fruit of the Spirit. If you're leading people (or trying to stay grounded as a believer), this conversation is a guide for clarity, courage, and emotional maturity in a chaotic culture.They also get practical: how to disagree without personal attacks, why asking better questions matters (“why do you ask?”), and how discipleship starts with identity before behavior change. Along the way, they highlight the difference between ideology-shaping and sin-addressing, the dangers of algorithm-driven thinking, and why real influence should build bridges—not burn them. The goal isn't silence. It's wisdom. It's holding the line with conviction and compassion.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MAN VS MARRIAGE!Men blame others so they can justify not taking responsibility.You can blame your wife.Your job.Your season.Your past.As long as it keeps you from looking in the mirror.In this episode, we confront blameshifting for what it really is — emotional avoidance dressed up as justification.For most men, emotional reactions don't begin with anger.They begin with disappointment — and it goes unidentified.Then the ego gets involved.Then the internal narrative begins:“Here we go again… I knew it… this always happens.”Blame feels productive.But it's passive.It explains why nothing changes while convincing you that you had no choice.Personal responsibility isn't punishment.It's power.Because once you own your part, you finally have something you can change.This episode breaks down:Why disappointment gets mislabeled as angerHow ego fuels blameshiftingThe cost of emotional justificationWhat ownership actually looks like in leadershipLeadership begins the moment you stop asking who's at fault and start asking what's required of you.

I hope you are having a great week and thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of the Perceptive Photographer. The just happens to be episode 571 and we still have one week of the Winter Olympics left. Woo H00!. This week, we're diving deep into the art of photographic composition and what truly makes a photograph great based on the inspiration of two quotes. One by Ansel Adams and the other by Edward Weston. Ansel Adams once said, “A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense.” This means that a photograph isn't just a picture; it's a reflection of your emotions and worldview. Edward Weston's perspective that “Good composition is only the strongest way of seeing the subject. It cannot be taught because, like all creative efforts, it is a matter of personal growth” It's about developing your unique vision and expressing it through your photography. The got me thinking that, while learning compositional rules is helpful, the essence of great photography really doe lie in personal connection and authentic expression. Your best work will come from a place of self-awareness and growth. Our great photographs are more than visual records; they are stories of our life told through our unique perspective. They reflect our values, emotions, and experiences. Couple of reminder about some upcoming fun things to do: Foundations of Photoshop Virtual Summit: Starting next Monday, February 23rd, through the 27th. It's a fantastic opportunity to get a free week of training on Photoshop fundamentals. Don't miss my classes on printing, troubleshooting, canvas, and image size.

Have a wonderfully creative week, and I look forward to our next episode together.

In this episode of HAYVN Hubcast, host Nancy Sheed speaks with Christine Jurzenski and Erica Schultz, co-founders of Cranel, about their journey building a women-centered health company rooted in prevention, education, and product efficacy. Normalizing taboo conversations in women's healthChristine Jurzenski and Erica Schultz are on a mission to remove stigma around UTIs, gut health, and vaginal health—areas many women experience but rarely discuss openly. A company born from personal pain pointsCranel started as a solution to recurrent UTIs after the founders experienced the frustrating cycle of antibiotics, side effects, and limited preventative options. Non-traditional founders who learned fastWith backgrounds in finance and law, they built Cranel by taking “micro steps”—researching clinical evidence, cold-calling experts, and learning manufacturing and e-commerce from scratch. COVID pushed them into DTC—and it workedThe pandemic forced Cranel to launch as a direct-to-consumer brand, allowing them to maintain margins, educate customers, and build strong relationships with their community. Lean scaling with smart delegationCranel is still run by the two founders full-time with a network of contractors. They believe in mastering processes before outsourcing and leveraging modern tools and AI to scale efficiently. Expanding from a hero product to a platformThe brand has grown beyond cranberry juice with the launch of a probiotic/prebiotic product to support gut and vaginal microbiome health, signaling a broader women's health platform strategy. Navigating the supplement and regulatory gray zoneThey discussed the challenges of operating in the supplement space, balancing science-backed messaging with regulatory constraints, and advocating for better education around antibiotic overuse and resistance. The power of community and pitchingWinning the HAYVN Hatch pitch competition reinforced the value of female founder communities, mentorship, and the strength of a co-founder partnership. Christine and Erica's journey with Cranel illustrates how personal frustration can spark meaningful innovation. By combining evidence-based product development, direct-to-consumer education, and a mission to destigmatize women's health, they're building more than a brand—they're building a movement.  Their story highlights the power of curiosity, persistence, and community in turning a side hustle into a growing health platform designed by women, for women.

Episode Description: In this insightful episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes Shirley Hayden, founder and president of Aspire Sales Management Solutions, for her very first podcast appearance. Drawing from over 25 years of executive sales leadership experience and Harvard Business School strategy training, Shirley Hayden shares her expertise on what it takes to build sales systems that not only drive growth, but also endure. The conversation, both conversational and deeply practical, begins with Shirley Hayden recounting her journey from sales representative to executive leader. She discusses how natural leadership tendencies and a keen eye for systems propelled her career, and shares lessons often missed by others—including the importance of speaking up, asking for help, and maintaining open communication with those she leads. Throughout the episode, Wize El Jefe and Shirley Hayden unravel the nuanced relationship between personalities and systems in sales teams. Shirley Hayden emphasizes that while likability and interpersonal skills matter, the foundation of sustainable sales is process-driven. She notes that effective salespeople whether extroverts or introverts succeed by asking the right questions, genuinely seeking to solve customer pain points, and engaging deeply in the mental game of sales. Listeners gain valuable insights into the real-world challenges faced by sales leaders. Shirley Hayden describes turning around an underperforming New England sales team by introducing structured onboarding and operational processes, dramatically reducing the time it took for new hires to become profitable. This experience sets the stage for a broader discussion about the universal need for systems, illustrated not only in sales but also through Wize El Jefe's own experience structuring his podcast for greater efficiency and growth. The episode dives into the continuous evolution of leadership philosophies. Shirley Hayden advocates for ongoing education, firsthand customer interaction, and persistent exposure to current industry trends—especially the transformative role of AI and new technologies in sales acceleration. Both speakers highlight the power of attending summits and conferences for networking, education, and staying ahead in a fast-moving landscape. One of the most resonant themes is the challenge of strong products underperforming due to weak sales processes. Shirley Hayden systematically breaks down common pitfalls: poor onboarding, lack of infrastructure, mismatched sales personalities, and absent assessment tools. She explains the importance of identifying whether a salesperson is a hunter, farmer, or account manager, and ensuring roles align with individual strengths. The episode explores what separates teams that merely survive from those that scale. Shirley Hayden stresses the necessity of a buildable, scalable, and repeatable sales process. She introduces the concept of a customized sales playbook, recounting a case study with a law firm where lack of process led to inefficiency and redundancy. Her discovery approach focuses on streamlining systems to increase efficiency and communication, and reduce errors. Accountability and data-driven decision-making emerge as cornerstones of successful sales leadership. Shirley Hayden details how key performance indicators tracked in a CRM system empower organizations to manage, coach, and forecast effectively. Weekly one-on-one meetings, structured feedback, and clear benchmarks keep teams on track and motivated. As the episode delves into scaling sales teams from small businesses to national organizations, Shirley Hayden emphasizes the engine-like importance of sales, the limits of relying solely on marketing, and the advantages of hiring fractional leaders for specialized expertise without the high cost of full-time executives. She outlines the significance of sustainable, repeatable growth: proper forecasting, data-driven strategy, ongoing training, weekly troubleshooting, and competitor awareness. Addressing common blind spots among founders, Shirley Hayden observes that founders often promote trusted associates into sales roles without proper assessment or process, leading to mismatches and inefficiencies. She warns that 80% of small to mid-sized businesses lack a documented sales process, hampering their ability to scale. The episode offers advice for struggling businesses especially those plateaued or stalled in growth. Shirley Hayden recommends starting with a sales assessment, reaching out to a fractional VP for a complimentary evaluation, and evaluating compensation structures to ensure that sales teams remain incentivized and motivated. Culture, compensation, and legacy are tackled head-on. Shirley Hayden talks about cultivating A-players not just through money, but by providing pathways for advancement and a positive workplace environment. She underlines the essential role of organizational culture in attracting and retaining top talent, encouraging leaders to revisit and live their guiding principles, and to celebrate wins to foster morale and drive continual improvement. Personal anecdotes from Wize El Jefe bring these concepts to life. He shares stories about employee recognition and the importance of celebrating achievements, highlighting how meaningful leadership practices create lasting impact in every organization. The episode closes with Shirley Hayden's contact details and a call to action for founders, leaders, and business owners: structure and systems are the keys to unlocking clarity, confidence, and scalable success. If you're ready to rethink sales and drive sustainable growth, this conversation is essential listening. Key Topics Covered: Sales leadership evolution and common pitfalls The importance of systems over personalities in sales Building and onboarding effective sales teams Continuous education, networking, and leveraging AI Sales processes, playbooks, and infrastructure Accountability, KPIs, and data-driven leadership Scaling from small teams to national organizations (including fractional leadership) Sustainable growth principles in today's climate Blind spots around hiring, promotion, and processes for founders Compensation strategies to attract and retain top talent The role of culture, principles, and celebration in strong sales organizations Real-world anecdotes illuminating leadership and team motivation This episode of Stuck In My Mind Podcast is a masterclass in sales systems, leadership, and the psychology of growth as relevant for business owners, sales professionals, and anyone looking to build lasting organizational success.

Construction is full of tough people… and that toughness is costing lives. In this raw conversation on masculinity, enoughness, mental health, addiction, and suicide prevention, Brandon Anderson (a construction safety leader and mental health advocate) explains why the construction industry has one of the highest suicide rates—and why the real danger isn't just the jobsite. It's the silence. The “suck it up” culture. The belief that men are disposable. The coping that turns into alcoholism, opioids, and overdoses. If you've ever felt like you had to carry everything alone, this episode will hit hard—in the best way. You'll hear why most people don't need perfect advice… they need someone to listen. You'll learn a simple 60-second check-in that can save a life, what to say when someone opens up, and how to spot the quiet signs when a friend is not okay. This is for construction workers, blue-collar men, leaders, fathers, husbands, and anyone who wants to help someone struggling with depression, addiction, or suicidal thoughts. You are not alone. And your story isn't over. You'll learn why “tough guy” masculinity can block men from asking for help and how that fuels mental health struggles in the trades. You'll hear what to say when someone finally opens up, including how to avoid turning it into a comparison story and instead respond with presence and trust. You'll learn the 60-second pause technique—how to ask “No, really… how are you?” and listen long enough for the truth to come out. You'll also hear why hope matters, how “Hold On, Pain Ends” reframes suicidal pain, and how leaders, coworkers, and friends can create a culture of care without turning it into performative “touchy-feely” nonsense. 00:00 Intro00:18 Meet Brandon Anderson + construction background02:22 Why construction has a major mental health + suicide problem07:13 The “suck it up” culture and why men don't ask for help10:12 Feeling disposable at work and in society11:35 Most people just need someone to talk to15:13 The real demographics affected (not just “kids”)20:16 Opioids, injury, and the overdose pipeline21:39 Personal loss + why conversations like this matter24:09 Hope stands for Hold On, Pain Ends33:14 What to say when someone opens up34:01 The 60-second check-in that can save a life36:52 The Hope Coin idea and reaching the unreachable41:14 Trust your gut and reach out44:05 Listening as leadership (and real ministry)48:09 Practical takeaways to take action today49:37 Where to connect with Brandon (LinkedIn/IG/Facebook) #MensMentalHealth #SuicidePrevention #ConstructionLife #AddictionRecovery #Masculinity Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we talk about a question many people wrestle with: Is God ever really silent?Josh and Caitlin explore how their understanding of God's communication has developed over time. We share how becoming parents changed the way we view Heavenly Father's love and patience. What once sounded like simple textbook phrases became deeply meaningful after going through real-life trials and disappointments.We discuss how it's easy to expect constant answers delivered quickly and easily, like an online order. But God doesn't usually work that way. Instead, He often guides us through small moments, quiet impressions, scriptures, prayer, and the everyday experiences of life.Caitlin shares personal stories about grief, recovery from a C-section, and seeing meaningful signs like butterflies and the number 711 as reminders of God's individualized care. Josh talks about how hard seasons in business and life helped him cling more tightly to his testimony and to God's grace.The big message from this episode:Even when you can't hear God clearly, that doesn't mean He has left you. Sometimes the quiet is part of the plan. Enduring means continuing forward in faith, giving effort, and trusting that none of our struggles are wasted.Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/enduretotheendpod/Zunex Pest Control: https://www.instagram.com/zunexpestco/00:00 – Opening music and introduction00:26 – Starting a new running training block01:32 – Why this episode focuses on God02:00 – Experiential understanding through parenting02:47 – How our opinions on God developed03:19 – Culture, pressure, and perfectionism05:09 – Expectations versus God's timetable07:00 – Seeking God in the silence08:41 – Silence is not abandonment11:24 – Understanding identity and intrinsic worth13:22 – Trusting God's grace in hard moments15:32 – Personal inputs are all we control18:47 – Doctrine preserving God's mercy20:50 – The atonement redeeming suffering23:26 – Weakness and humility27:01 – Life always has purpose29:18 – Butterflies, signs, and tender mercies33:09 – Introducing the Think Celestial segment34:01 – Caitlin's Think Celestial story38:17 – Learning to endure without comparisons40:07 – Josh's testimony on hard seasons43:18 – Family sickness as holy work44:15 – Final encouragement

Strong relationships aren't built by chance, they're built on solid foundations.In this episode of Coaching In Session, relationship and mindset coach Michael Rearden breaks down the hidden structure behind lasting relationships by comparing them to building a home. Just like a house, relationships collapse when the foundation is weak, neglected, or never properly built in the first place.Michael explores why relationship challenges often stem from unaddressed personal issues, emotional misalignment, and a lack of self-assessment. He explains how emotional discipline, proactive communication, and consistent maintenance are essential for long-term connection and why working on yourself is the fastest way to strengthen any relationship.This episode offers a clear, formula-based approach to relationship growth, helping you identify weak points, rebuild with intention, and create healthier, more resilient connections rooted in personal development and aligned values.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy relationship foundations determine long-term successHow self-assessment strengthens personal and romantic relationshipsThe hidden causes behind recurring relationship problemsWhy emotional discipline is critical during challengesHow consistent maintenance creates lasting connectionKey Takeaways✅ Understand the foundation of your relationships✅ Self-assessment is essential before entering or repairing relationships✅ Relationship problems often stem from unresolved issues✅ Ignoring warning signs weakens long-term connection✅ Rebuilding requires alignment with core values✅ Emotional discipline stabilizes relationship dynamics✅ Consistency is critical for lasting relationships✅ Relationships follow a formula, variables matter✅ Personal growth strengthens relationship outcomes✅ Growth in individuals leads to growth in relationships

This episode is the full replay of my live masterclass “This Is the Year We've Been Waiting For.” We move with the Fire Horse frequency - the energy that refuses delay, exposes where you outsource your authority, and demands that you live who you have already become. Inside this transmission, I share: Why the Fire Horse calls you out (and how agitation becomes direction) The difference between faith and passivity dressed as spirituality The balance of feminine receiving with masculine commitment and action My four leadership phases: Awakening → Integration → Execution → Stewardship Why Phase 3 (Execution) requires you to hold pressure without collapsing Why Phase 4 (Stewardship) is about carrying the flame and building environments where others evolve Writing prompts and live sharing that reveal what your own year is asking of you (and some shares have been removed to honour the person's deep vulnerability) If you've been preparing for years… if you've been devoted… if you've been becoming… this is the moment the Fire Horse points to: Stop incubating. Start delivering.

What if the real transformation from coaching is not the career, but the way every relationship in your life begins to evolve? In this episode, we explore a conversation that began with a simple observation about how difficult it can feel to form meaningful friendships in adulthood and unfolded into something far more profound. As we reflected on our own journeys and the experiences of the coaches we train, it became clear that coaching is not only a professional pathway. It is a catalyst for deeper connection, richer communication and a more intentional relationship with ourselves and others. We share how learning to coach invites a level of self-awareness that reshapes what we look for in friendships, partnerships and working relationships. For us, this has meant moving towards more soulful, values-led connections. Relationships become less about proximity or history and more about alignment, growth and authenticity. That shift can feel expansive and, at times, confronting, particularly when boundaries become clearer and we recognise what no longer fits. We talk openly about how coaching can strengthen marriages and long-term partnerships, not because the relationship is the focus of the coaching, but because personal insight changes the way we communicate, express needs and listen. When one person grows, the relationship is invited to grow too. Sometimes that leads to renewal and deeper intimacy. Sometimes it leads to difficult but necessary change. There is also a powerful ripple effect. When one person invests in their development, it often inspires others to pursue their own path, whether through coaching, therapy or long-held ambitions. This is self-leadership in action. Going first creates permission for others to follow in their own way. We reflect on the subtle transformations that coaching brings to everyday life. The relationship with work can shift from endurance to joy. The way we lead teams becomes more empowering and less about control. Parenting becomes more conscious. Even our relationship with time, health, possessions and rest can change as our values become clearer. One of the most meaningful themes in this conversation is the evolving relationship with ourselves. Coaching reveals the hidden beliefs and internal patterns that quietly shape our decisions. As those come into awareness, we begin to live more by design and less by default. With that comes greater self-trust, a stronger connection to the future version of ourselves and the courage to take steps that once felt out of reach. This episode is an honest reflection on growth. Coaching does not remove life's complexity, but it gives us the capacity to navigate it with intention, compassion and clarity. And in doing so, every relationship we have begins to change shape.   Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to how coaching changes relationships 00:30 Why meaningful friendships can feel harder in adulthood 01:28 The search for purpose, connection and depth 02:24 How coaching strengthens partnerships and marriages 04:15 Boundaries and relationships that no longer fit 05:10 Inspiring growth in others through self-leadership 06:37 Redefining expectations of joy in work 07:35 Coaching and the changing relationship with children and teams 09:28 Closure, reintegration and subtle personal shifts 10:53 Discovering blind spots and hidden beliefs 12:38 Living life by design and conscious choice 14:04 Changing relationships with health, time and physical possessions 15:37 Trusting intuition and following the inner call to coach 17:33 Finding your people through coaching 18:02 Connecting with your future self 20:27 Recognising clarity, purpose and momentum in others 22:12 Big life changes during coach training 23:09 How to start your coaching journey   Key Lessons Learned: Deep self-awareness transforms the quality and depth of every relationship. Clear boundaries create space for more aligned and sustainable connections. Personal growth often inspires growth in partners, friends and colleagues. Coaching shifts leadership from control to empowerment and legacy. Living by design strengthens self-trust and decision making. Joy at work is a belief that can be learned and embodied. Following the pull towards coaching is often a response to an inner knowing.   Keywords: coaching and relationships, how coaching changes your life, coach training personal transformation self awareness and relationships, values based living, coaching for confidence and clarity, leadership and coaching skills, boundary setting and personal growth, finding your purpose through coaching life by design coaching,   Links & Resources: IG Company website: https://www.igcompany.com Coaching course quiz: https://www.mycoachingcourse.com

Roger Stone and Troy Smith critique the professional integrity and personal associations of Steve Bannon, specifically highlighting his alleged relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The conversation centers on recently released emails suggesting Bannon attempted to rehabilitate Epstein's public image through a documentary project while privately disparaging Donald Trump. Stone characterizes Bannon as a deceptive "backstabber" and a hypocrite, citing his legal troubles involving the "We Build the Wall" campaign and his connections to a fraudulent Chinese billionaire.  Learn more about your ad choices.
