Podcasts about Personal

Join Monica and Taylor for a thoughtful (and surprisingly layered!) chat about the "not like other girls" conundrum. What started as a casual comment during recording turned into a fascinating exploration of how we as women pit ourselves against each other—and for what? In this episode, we unpack: The origins of the "not like other girls" trope and how it shows up in our lives Our own experiences with feeling pressure to either stand out OR fit in (spoiler: we had opposite journeys!) How this connects to mommy wars, feminism, and those impossible gender roles we're all trying to navigate Why Gen Z might actually be doing this better than we did The beautiful messiness of self-acceptance Plus: We get real about raising daughters, the cafeteria-style approach to life choices, and why "let people like what they like" might be the most important phrase ever. Bottom line? We're all just humans having individual experiences. The sooner we accept ourselves (and each other), the better off we'll all be.

In this episode, Alex Hutchinson rejoins Trail Runner Nation discuss why muscle is the real engine behind endurance, performance, and long-term health, especially as runners get older. The conversation explores how and why we lose muscle over time, why this decline matters for speed, resilience, and injury prevention, and the encouraging truth that much of it is reversible. Alex explains the critical role of strength training, the importance of intensity and progressive load, and how endurance athletes can balance running with the work needed to maintain power. The discussion also challenges common myths about aging, showing that performance losses are not inevitable but often the result of training gaps rather than biology alone. For aging athletes and lifelong runners, this episode offers a practical roadmap for staying strong, capable, and competitive for decades. This discussion began from Alex's review of Michael Joseph Gross' book, "Stronger: The Untold Story of Muscle in Our Lives" Key Topics: The evolving understanding of muscle as a core component of human health, not just aesthetics or performance. Historical perspectives on muscle research, from ancient Greece to misconceptions over the centuries. The modern shift towards heavy lifting among elite athletes and implications for older adults. The inspiring work of Maria Fiaturone Singh on elderly resistance training and outcomes in musculoskeletal health. Practical advice for incorporating strength training into daily life with minimal equipment. The psychological and physical joys of feeling the movement of heavy lifting with purpose. How resistance training enhances posture, independence, and injury prevention in aging. Personal journeys—from bodybuilding to running, and reintegration of strength work in midlife. Overcoming mental barriers to strength training: finding routines you enjoy and tracking progress. The importance of consistent, accessible strength habits like bodyweight exercises and small routines.

In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy Koch explore a growing trend among so called "TV Moms," parents who allow television freely but restrict personal devices like iPads and phones. Is there really a difference? Or is all screen time the same? Drawing on current research and practical parenting experience, Dr. Kathy explains why screens are not created equal. Television can become communal and conversational when used intentionally. Personal devices, however, are engineered for individual consumption and often create emotional ownership that's harder for kids to relinquish. But even TV loses its value when it becomes constant background noise. The deeper concern isn't just screen exposure, it's what screens are replacing. Quiet. Conversation. Boredom. Creative play. Relational engagement. In a culture where something is always on, children are losing the natural rhythms that form identity: sitting, walking, listening, asking, and wondering. When noise fills every space, wisdom has no room to rise. Dr. Kathy reminds parents that quiet is not empty. Quiet is formative. It's where discernment grows, where creativity sparks, where the Holy Spirit speaks. Identity is shaped not by constant input but by repeated relational moments in which children feel known and guided. This episode challenges parents to reconsider not just how much media their kids consume, but whether screens are crowding out the spaces where character, connection, and confidence are built.

Do you take things personally?It's a hard pattern to break as, of course, our lives are our personal responsibility, and when we engage with others and the world. When we take things personally that are not personal, we suffer.Do you get offended easily?Do your feelings get hurt easily?Do you struggle with insecurities that you will not be chosen?Taking things personally serves to perpetuate the fears that we are unworthy and that we need validation of our worth from the external world.It's a trap.Free yourself! Thanks for listening!

One LinkedIn post. Almost 400,000 impressions. Aaron Nichols has earned 1.8 million impressions on LinkedIn in one year, and he did it by breaking every rule the clean energy industry follows. His message is blunt: solar companies insist on being boring, and they are losing the public conversation because of it. In this episode, host Tim Montague sits down with Aaron Nichols to break down four storytelling rules that solar professionals need to win attention, build trust, and drive business on LinkedIn.Aaron Nichols serves as Research and Policy Specialist at Exact Solar, a regional solar installer based in Pennsylvania. He also hosts This Week in Solar, a news and interview podcast covering the solar industry. His article, "Four Rules of Storytelling That Corporate America Desperately Needs," outlines the framework discussed in this episode.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSAaron earned 1.8 million LinkedIn impressions in a single year, including one post that reached nearly 400,000 people. His approach: lead with emotion, not data. Personal stories and humor drove the strongest results, outperforming technical content by wide margins.Aaron outlines four rules of storytelling for solar and clean energy professionals. Rule one: tell one story at a time. Rule two: make people care before making your case. Rule three: if it's complicated, you haven't finished thinking. Rule four: Put a face on it by using personal LinkedIn pages instead of company pages.Solar professionals do not need to wait for conferences to build relationships and generate business. Aaron used LinkedIn to launch a podcast, organize local events with crowds of 40 to 70 people, build industry relationships, and create direct revenue opportunities for a small regional installer.With rising energy bills putting electricity in the news daily and federal policy headwinds challenging the industry, the ability to tell compelling stories and build trust on platforms like LinkedIn has never mattered more.Connect with Aaron NicholsAaron Nichols LinkedInThis Week in Solar"Making Numbers Count" by Chip Heath and Carla Starr Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

If you've ever shipped fast only to realize no one wanted what you built, you've felt the tension behind balancing building and feedback. As developers, we're trained to execute against known requirements. As soon as you step into product ownership, consulting, or entrepreneurship, those guardrails disappear. Now you have to decide what to build, who it's for, and why it matters—while still making forward progress. Get it wrong, and you either drown in feedback or disappear into code. Get it right, and you create steady momentum without wasting effort. This interview continues our discussion with Tyler Dane as we break down a practical, repeatable system for balancing building and feedback so you can keep shipping and stay aligned with real customer needs. About Tyler Dane Tyler Dane has dedicated his career to helping people better manage—and truly appreciate—their time. After working as a full-time Software Engineer, Tyler recently stepped away from traditional employment to focus entirely on building Compass Calendar, a productivity app designed to help everyday users visualize and plan their day more intentionally. The tool is built from firsthand experience, not theory—shaped by years of experimenting with productivity systems, tools, and workflows. In a bold reset, Tyler sold most of his belongings and relocated to San Francisco to focus on growing the product, collaborating with partners, and pushing Compass forward. Outside of coding, Tyler creates YouTube videos and writes about time management and productivity. After consuming countless productivity books, tools, and frameworks, he realized a common trap: doing more without actually accomplishing what matters. That insight led him to break productivity down into its most practical, nuanced components—cutting through hustle culture noise to focus on systems that actually work. Tyler is unapologetically honest and independent. With no investors, no sponsors, and nothing to sell beyond the value of his work, his focus is simple: help people get more done—and appreciate the limited time they have to do it. Follow Tyler on LinkedIn, YouTube, and X. Balancing building and feedback starts with a clear v1 The biggest cause of wasted effort isn't bad code—it's unclear scope. A clear v1 isn't a long feature list; it's a decision about which problem you are solving first. When v1 is defined, feedback becomes directional instead of distracting. You can evaluate every request with a simple question: Does this help solve the v1 problem? If the answer is no, it goes into a parking lot—not the backlog. Without that clarity, every conversation feels urgent, and every idea feels equally important. Balancing building and feedback by timeboxing your week Unstructured time leads to extremes. One week becomes all coding. The next becomes all conversations. Neither works for long. Timeboxing forces balance by design. Decide when you build and when you listen—and protect those blocks like production systems. This removes decision fatigue and prevents emotional swings based on the latest conversation. The Weekly Balance Blueprint Pick a structure: daily outreach blocks or one dedicated feedback day Convert feedback into next-week priorities instead of mid-week pivots Consistency matters more than perfection. Balancing building and feedback with daily "business refocus" blocks Short check-ins keep you out of the weeds. Spend 10–15 minutes at the start and end of your day to reconnect with the business context. Ask yourself: Who is this for? What problem am I solving? What actually moved the product forward today? These moments prevent scope creep and help you code with intent instead of habit. Balancing building and feedback using personal sprints Personal sprints introduce rhythm. Two- or three-week cycles work well because they're long enough to produce meaningful output and short enough to adjust course. Each sprint should include: Focused build time Planned feedback windows Explicit integration of what you learned This keeps learning and execution tightly coupled, rather than competing for attention. Balancing building and feedback through problem-first customer research Feedback becomes overwhelming when you ask the wrong questions. Feature requests are noisy. Problems are signals. Focus conversations on how people experience the problem today, what frustrates them, and what "better" looks like. This approach surfaces patterns instead of opinions. Problem-First Customer Conversations Ask about pains, workarounds, and desired outcomes Use "not our customer" signals to narrow your focus Clarity often comes from who you don't build for. Balancing building and feedback to prevent feature overload Not all feedback belongs in your product. Filtering input is a leadership skill. Use your v1 definition and target customer as a lens. Some ideas are valuable later. Some indicate a different market entirely. Saying "no" protects your momentum and your sanity. Balancing building and feedback by turning conversations into messaging Customer conversations don't just shape the product—they shape how you talk about it. The language people use to describe their pain becomes your marketing copy. When your messaging mirrors real problems, alignment improves across sales, onboarding, and product decisions. Balancing building and feedback with journaling to spot patterns Writing creates distance. Distance creates clarity. A lightweight journaling habit helps you spot repeated mistakes, drifting priorities, and false assumptions before they become expensive. Over time, patterns become impossible to ignore. The Founder Feedback Journal Capture decisions, assumptions, and outcomes daily Review monthly to identify drift and reset priorities It's one of the simplest tools with the highest long-term ROI. Conclusion Balancing building and feedback isn't about splitting your time evenly—it's about building a system that keeps you moving forward without losing direction. Clear scope, protected time, intentional feedback loops, and honest reflection create momentum that compounds. Start small. Adjust deliberately. And remember: progress comes from building the right things, not just building faster.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What do we mean when we speak of human experience?In this fourth installment of the Radically Personal series, Jerry Martin takes up that question and follows it carefully. Modern philosophy and science often frame experience in terms of sensations, data, or brain activity. Yet the way we actually live and perceive suggests something more expansive.Drawing on William James, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Hilary Putnam, Martin Buber, Edith Stein, and others, Jerry reflects on how we encounter the world in practice. He considers perception and embodiment, the depth present in persons and things, the pull of beauty and awe, and the way empathy makes another's inner life accessible.The discussion gradually turns toward love and value, tracing how worth emerges within experience itself. As the episode moves from perception to relationship to meaning, a picture comes into view: depth is not added from outside but belongs to experience as lived.Join Jerry in taking experience seriously; it may open new ways of thinking about meaning, reality, and the possibility of the divine.Get the books: Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial Age | God: An Autobiography, As Told to a PhilosopherOther Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:Radically Personal: Reflections on lived experience, divine encounter, and personal vocation, drawing on a seeker-centered approach to spirituality in a new Axial Age.From God to Jerry to You: Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue: Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story: Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind: Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God: A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.The Life Wisdom Project: Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.What's On Your Mind: Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay Connected: questions@godanautobiography.comShare Your Story | Site | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

In high school, a career and technical education program let her earn healthcare certifications that sparked real clinical interest. As an undergrad at Texas A&M, she sought academic rigor and built-in research while learning to ask for help sooner—through office hours, professional advising, and a premed society that brought advisors and medical schools to campus.She shares the toughest moments too: a rocky transition to college, being humbled by General Chemistry (but loving visual organic chemistry), and navigating a competitive premed culture by staying in her own lane. Inside medical school, she talks imposter syndrome, the fire‑hydrant pace of learning, and how Pomodoro, Anki, and visual tools on her iPad kept her grounded. She opens up about the stress of MMIs and virtual glitches, the relief of a Texas pre‑match call after three interviews, and the power of friends and family when things get heavy.If you're weighing how hard to push versus how smart to study, or how to keep your “why” front and center, Kaylah's candid reflections will help you recalibrate.What You'll Learn:- How to plug into advising and support even at large schools- Ways to manage competition by staying in your lane- Smarter study methods: Pomodoro, Anki, and visual learning- Handling MMIs when there's no feedback or affirmation- Keeping your why alive through setbacks and intensity

True Crime Today presents a comprehensive behavioral analysis with former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, covering two major cases: the Nancy Guthrie abduction and the McKee/Tepe double homicide autopsy findings.Robin served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, where he spent decades training agents to read human behavior and detect deception. In this interview, he applies that expertise to cases demanding answers.The Guthrie case: An 84-year-old woman taken from her Tucson home in the middle of the night. Forced entry. Personal items left behind. Ransom notes sent to media outlets—not the family—demanding bitcoin and containing details about the inside of her home. Robin decodes what these behavioral choices reveal about the perpetrator. He explains how investigators assess witnesses, separate grief from guilt, and prioritize leads when false accusations are already circulating.The McKee/Tepe autopsy: Sixteen gunshot wounds between two victims. Monique shot nine times, including once in the face at close range. Spencer shot seven times with defensive injuries suggesting he tried to protect his wife. Robin analyzes the wound patterns—what they reveal about mental state, whether this was cold execution or rage, and how a surgeon's professional conditioning may have shaped the attack.We examine the "wound collector" profile. The affidavit alleges McKee spent eight years obsessing over Monique, making threats, and conducting surveillance. Robin explains what sustains that fixation and what finally triggers action after nearly a decade.McKee's phone went dark during the murder window. Stolen plates. Counter-forensic behavior. Can anything break someone who allegedly planned this for eight years?#RobinDreeke #NancyGuthrie #KevinMcKee #TepeMurders #TrueCrimeToday #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #WoundCollector #Autopsy #DeceptionDetection #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

From Olympic sprinter to trusted advisor helping entrepreneurs save millions in taxes, David Flores Wilson shares proven strategies for QSBS planning, equity compensation design, and preparing business owners for successful exits both financially and personally. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with David Flores Wilson, CFA, CFP, Managing Partner at Sinceres, who advises entrepreneurs and business owners in New York City on personal financial planning from formation to exit and beyond. David is a multiple Investopedia Top 100 Financial Advisor whose guidance has appeared in CNBC, Yahoo Finance, the New York Times, US News and World Report, and Investment News. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover how QSBS planning can potentially exclude $10 million to $70 million or more in capital gains from taxes when structured correctly, why LLC to C Corp conversion timing creates dramatic differences in tax outcomes, and how QSBS stacking through non-grantor trusts multiplies exclusions. David shares why equity compensation plans often fail to motivate the specific people they target and what questions to ask before choosing a vehicle. You'll also learn about the personal readiness component of exit planning that determines whether entrepreneurs thrive or struggle after selling their businesses. DAVID'S JOURNEY: David's path to financial planning started with entrepreneurial instincts in an unexpected place. Growing up in Guam, he ran a comic book arbitrage business as a kid, discovering price differences between local stores and mainland mail-order catalogs. His father was a CPA with a home office, and despite wanting nothing to do with accounting, David absorbed financial concepts through osmosis that would later prove invaluable. After college at UC Berkeley, David joined Lehman Brothers and worked through the financial crisis. During that time, colleagues started coming to him with financial planning questions, and he realized helping people with their money was his true passion. He sat on that realization for years before eventually transitioning to financial planning. When Covid hit in 2020, David and his partner Dan Ryan launched Sinceres, and the firm has been growing since. OLYMPICS LESSON: David represented Guam in track and field at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, competing in the 200 and 400 meters. The experience taught him something crucial about career selection. Unlike running, where pushing harder brings diminishing returns and constant injury risk, financial planning offers the opportunity to improve incrementally every single day. That compounding knowledge approach now drives how he serves clients. KEY INSIGHTS: QSBS planning stands out as potentially the most powerful tax planning tool for qualifying entrepreneurs. C Corps meeting holding period and active business requirements can exclude $10 million in gains, or 10 times basis for older shares, with new legislation increasing that to $15 million. The planning becomes even more powerful with LLC conversions where market value at conversion becomes the QSBS basis. The biggest mistake with equity compensation involves choosing vehicles based on what owners like rather than what motivates specific employees. "Equity" can mean participation in profits, upside potential, a seat at the table, or financial disclosure. Different people value these differently, and the best planning starts with understanding objectives before selecting tools. Exit planning involves three components that David implements from the first meeting with business owners. Getting personally ready addresses what provides purpose after selling. Getting financially ready ensures the numbers work. Getting business ready covers everything from customer concentration to management team development. The recent One Big Beautiful Bill Act has changed QSBS holding periods, SALT deductions, and AMT rules. Business owners should review their planning with advisors rather than assuming previous strategies still apply. Perfect for entrepreneurs considering entity structure decisions, business owners thinking about exit planning, and anyone interested in tax-efficient wealth building strategies.

From there, things get lighter: Frontier is giving away 5,000 miles (yes, really), Hyatt launches a new promotion that's worth a closer look, Aeroplan adds ITA Airways as a partner, and we revisit one of the most important lessons in modern travel: always have a backup flight plan.

Only 60% of evangelicals say the Bible is their highest authority. That statistic should stop every Christian in their tracks. In this episode of the Redeeming Truth Podcast, our pastors wrestle with a sobering question raised by the State of Theology survey: If the Bible isn't the highest authority for what you believe… what is? Culture? Personal feelings? Popular voices? Your own heart? This conversation exposes why this question isn't academic — it's eternal. The pastors discuss: Why every person lives under some authority (whether they admit it or not) How evangelicalism quietly drifted from Scripture alone to something softer Why preaching that avoids conviction produces churches full of comfort — not truth And what happens when God's Word is treated as optional instead of authoritative This episode isn't about attacking others. It's about self-examination. Because whatever you place above Scripture will not stand when you stand before God.

What God Calls Pure Christianity (And Why It's So Uncomfortable) What if much of what we call Christianity… God wouldn't call pure? In this powerful episode of The Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob explores the simple yet challenging definition of real faith found in James 1:27. When church culture, traditions, and labels are stripped away, Scripture reveals a clear picture of what God considers pure and faultless religion: Loving the vulnerable and living with a clean heart. Rob unpacks how early Christians transformed the world through radical compassion—serving the sick, the poor, and the forgotten—even at great personal cost. But James' message doesn't stop with outward action. True faith also requires guarding our inner life from the quiet spiritual pollution that can dull our devotion. This episode is a call to live with: Radical compassion toward those in need Personal purity in a culture that pulls us away from God Balanced faith that is both outwardly loving and inwardly clean Through personal stories, ministry reflections, and practical challenges, Rob invites you to examine: Who around you needs protection, encouragement, or help What habits or influences may be quietly polluting your heart How to live the kind of faith that God calls pure and faultless If you want a simple definition of a 10X Christian, this might be it: Love radically. Live purely. And that kind of faith doesn't just change you— it changes the world.

Key Topics Covered:  1. Why Goal Setting Often Fails (and What's Really Driving You)Everything you do day to day is largely driven by your subconscious mind.If you don't set a clear goal, your subconscious will follow your dominant thought, which can lead to drift or self sabotage.The difference between achievers and non achievers is often whether they have a system for setting goals in a powerful way.2. Brian Main's Story and the Origins of Goal MappingBrian grew up in a travelling funfair family, left school before 13, had dyslexia, and couldn't read or write properly.After the family business collapsed, he faced repossession, major debt, and a very dark period personally.Personal development and goal setting became life changing, leading to the creation of Goal Mapping and a global coaching network.3. Why Words and Pictures Work Better Than Words AloneThe subconscious pays far more attention to images than to repeated written statements.Goal mapping combines clarity and precision (words) with subconscious impact (pictures).Brian explains why vision boards often fail: they may have pictures, but lack words, timelines, plans, and structure.4. The Seven-Step Goal Mapping ProcessDream: create a clear picture of successPriority: choose the main focusWhat: define the goals (often five on one map)Why: identify emotional reasons that keep you in the gameWhen: set start and target datesHow: map the key steps along the timelineWho: identify support and the qualities you must embody (for example “I am focused”)5. Daily Review, Brain States, and Making Goals “Stick”Brian recommends reviewing your map daily, ideally in the first hour after waking.This is when your brain is in alpha rhythm, with a much stronger connection to the subconscious.Reviewing daily for around 30 days helps form new neural connections and beliefs (brain cells that fire together, wire together).6. How to Write Goals So Your Subconscious Understands ThemAvoid negative goals like “I don't want debt” or “I lose 15kg” because the subconscious struggles with “don't” and abstract negatives.Write goals as affirmations: personal, positive, present tenseExamples: “I feel fantastic and free at 88kg” or “I am mortgage free”.7. Financial Goals: Getting Specific and Finding Your NumberFinancial freedom goals need a number, not vague phrases like “I'm abundant”.WealthBuilders' approach: design your perfect year, price it up, then divide by 12 to estimate your monthly recurring income target.The number can evolve, but having a destination helps you measure the gap and build a plan.Actionable Takeaways:Use a system, not willpower: goal achievement improves when the goal is set clearly and reviewed consistently.Combine words and pictures to speak to both your logical mind and subconscious mind.Review your goal map daily, ideally in the first hour after waking, for at least 30 days.Write goals in personal, positive, present tense and focus on what you want, not what you don't want.For financial goals, pick a specific number based on the lifestyle you want, then build a plan around it.Resources & Next StepsGoal Mapping: Create a free goal mapDownload our FREE Pensions and Inheritance Tax GuideWealthBuilders Membership: Free access to guides, webinars, and communityConnect with Us:Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.Next Steps On Your WealthBuilding Journey:  Join the WealthBuilders Facebook CommunitySchedule a 1:1 call with one of our teamBecome a member of WealthBuildersIf you have been enjoying listening to WealthTalk - Please Leave Us A Review!

119. Microdosing for Midlife: Brain Science of Change (Week 2)Week 2 of Microdosing for Midlife explores estrogen, menopause, hormone therapy, and cognitive health—plus how psilocybin supports neuroplasticity.Episode SummaryThis episode marks Week 2 of Microdosing for Midlife, a 12-week audio series exploring how psilocybin microdosing for women intersects with hormonal change, emotional regulation, and cognitive resilience during midlife.In this installment, April Pride expands on a central question that surfaced after Week 1: whether being “spared” classic menopausal symptoms—or choosing not to take hormone replacement therapy—puts women at greater risk for cognitive decline. Drawing from current research, April reframes the fear-driven narrative around menopause, estrogen, and dementia, offering a more nuanced and reassuring understanding of what actually shapes long-term brain health.The episode also explores estrogen's role as a neuroprotectant, how the midlife brain becomes more vulnerable to stress-based patterning, and why psychedelics like psilocybin may support neuroplasticity by softening rigid survival scripts. Through personal reflection and lived experience, April illustrates how subtle shifts in perception—not emotional erasure—can change one's relationship to anxiety, grief, and uncertainty.This episode functions as an audio companion to the written Week 2 essay, adding scientific context, integration insights, and real-life application without replacing the original post.
