My family has known Maria for 30 years.  I recently did a few portraits of her when I thought what can I do with these other than post them on Instagram and Facebook.  For a long time I have been watching and listening to Platon a world famous photographer who talks from the heart with deep interest to his sisters he's photographing.  For me, Platon is incredibly motivating.  Since, I have a photojournalism background I decided to interview Maria.  She is a selfless person with a deep personal life story of perseverance , struggle and grace.  I think you'll find this a deeply emotional interview.  It's not meant to be political statement rather a life story of an incredible woman. Send us Fan MailThank you for listening and help me grow this channel.  Have a great day.  Many of the photographs I talk about here are on Facebook: Brad Armstrong the Avatar picture is my wife and I with Smokey the Bear,  Instagram @ shade_image / commercial and editorial portraits Instagram @ barmst360 

Thom's Nutshell: “The promise of perfection is a red herring. Don't be distracted from your pursuit of learning and improving.” Patrick celebrates eight years of sobriety and the gang discusses the importance of honoring recovery milestones. The 5 Points of Balance: Staying clear about our values and worth in the face of criticism (not letting others edit your sense of self). Calming our anxiety and comforting our emotional bruises or trauma. Grounded responding and not overreacting or under reacting when there is tension or anxiety. Confronting ourselves for our own integrity and able to meaningfully endure discomfort for our growth and development. Unhooking self, others and reality from unreasonable expectations.

In this personal solo episode of Her Best Version, I'm sharing a little life update and opening up about navigating one of the most challenging chapters of my life. Amid stress, change and emotional overwhelm, I've been leaning into the simple yet powerful practices that help support my nervous system, regulate cortisol, and bring me back to myself, without adding more pressure to an already full plate. This episode is a reminder that supporting your health doesn't always have to look like doing more. Sometimes, the most healing things are the small moments of nourishment, rest, connection, boundaries, nature, movement, laughter and self-compassion woven into your everyday life. If you've been feeling stretched, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or stuck in survival mode, this conversation will explore simple ways to fill your own cup and support your health, during difficult seasons too. ....

Show Notes: Peter Schmidt talks about his senior year during the Iraq War, and how the news on the problem of jobless recovery led him to consider graduate school.  The Journey from Student to Dean Peter studied biomechanics at Cornell, focusing on the mathematics of biological systems and modeling clinical trials in orthopedics. He was admitted into  a fellowship program in New York at an orthopedic  hospital where he worked on total joint replacement.  His career path led him to neuroscience, where he led clinical research and worked for a nonprofit before becoming the vice dean of a medical school. He then moved on to running clinical trials and drug development.  A Focus on Parkinson's Disease Pete shares his interest in Parkinson's disease and explains that Parkinson's affects a tractable part of the brain, the basal ganglia, which is easier to model mathematically. He enjoys thinking about neuronal signaling and the microstructure of the brain, which helps in understanding the macro structure. Pete's PhD work involved modeling bone at the cellular level, and he applies similar thinking to the basal ganglia in Parkinson's disease. Research on Neurodegenerative Diseases Pete discusses the challenges in determining whether a question in neurodegenerative diseases is a question of science or engineering. He explains the historical focus on stem cells and extracellular proteins as solutions for diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Pete emphasizes the need to understand the role of extracellular proteins and the importance of scientific inquiry. He mentions the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of prion diseases and the subsequent focus on characteristic proteins in neurodegenerative diseases, which led to initiatives focused on proteins.  The Brain's Micro and Macro Structures Pete discusses the current focus on extracellular proteins and the challenges in proving their role in diseases like Parkinson's. He mentions the drug Lecanemab for Alzheimer's, which slows the disease but does not reverse it. Pete predicts that future research will focus on intracellular proteins and the need to restore lost cells in the brain. He highlights the importance of understanding the microstructure to inform the macro structure of the brain. The Logistics of Running Clinical Trials Pete explains that success in clinical trials is more about logistics than science, with 90-95% of the work being logistical. He discusses the challenges of recruiting subjects and the importance of working with academic medical centers that have a high volume of patients. Pete emphasizes the need for fast-moving ethics boards and efficient contracting to ensure the success of clinical trials. Incentives for Physicians When asked about the incentives for physicians to participate in clinical trials, Pete explains that most physicians are driven by scientific interest rather than financial incentives. He mentions the importance of academic leaders who can influence the participation of residents and fellows in trials. Pete highlights the passion of physicians in diseases like Huntington's and cystic fibrosis, which drives their engagement in research. The Role of Pharma Companies in Clinical Trials Pete talks about his role at East Carolina University where he oversaw clinical care and research at the medical school. He discusses the changing role of pharma companies in running clinical trials. He explains that many drugs are now discovered in labs, leading to a shift in the need for pharma companies to own their data. Pete mentions the issue of trial fraud, where fake patients are used to inflate data, and the importance of tighter control over trial data. He shares his experience of rescuing a trial from fraudulent data and the challenges of identifying such issues. Life on the Family Farm The conversation turns to Pete's family life, and Pete shares that his youngest child recently went to college, and he inherited a family farm that has been in his wife's family for 200 years. He enjoys working with his hands, doing woodworking, and using a skid steer for various tasks on the farm. Pete describes his role as the farm handyman, fixing things and maintaining the farm equipment. Harvard Reflections Pete mentions taking a quantum mechanics course and a material science class with X-ray interferometry. He highlights the impact of a physics class on fits and tolerances, which taught him about the importance of clearance and interference fits. Pete also shares his experience taking a folklore course with his roommate, which was his only pass/fail course at Harvard.  Pete explains the concept of fits and tolerances in engineering. He discusses the importance of understanding whether a fit needs to be tight or loose and planning accordingly. Pete uses examples from finance to illustrate the principle of having a cushion in budgeting. He emphasizes the need to know the target fit (tight or loose) to optimize engineering and design solutions.

Running a business during a personal crisis is one of the hardest parts of entrepreneurship - because clients, bills, marketing, and responsibilities don't pause just because your life feels like it is falling apart.In this episode of Coffee With Carissa, I'm talking about the very real challenge of running a business while dealing with personal crisis.Inside this episode, I share personal experiences of navigating business through breakups, separation, anxiety, illness, panic attacks, grief, and emotionally difficult seasons…And what actually helps when you are trying to keep going.Tune in to hear about

Dr. Tommy Dooley bought a low-reimbursement practice in 2017 doing $1.3M with $600 crowns. Eight years later, he's at $6.1M across two locations with three partners, 35 team members, and 47% overhead. He followed the Bulletproof playbook to the letter: dropped from 10 insurance networks to three, expanded from 7 to 12 ops, brought in partners, and hit 20% year-over-year growth for five straight years. But then he hit a problem growth could not solve: he's redlining. Not clinically. Not financially. Psychologically. Tommy thought the next level of leadership meant knowing every team member personally, remembering every birthday, and becoming the emotional center of a 35-person operation. Craig and Peter challenged that. In this real-time coaching conversation, they unpack the leadership identity crisis that hits practice owners when the business scales past what one person can hold. They cover why your definition of "good leadership" might be wrong, why the skill set that built your practice can eventually break it, and why the best leaders stop pushing their team toward a vision and start building a team that is pulled by one. If you're growing fast, feeling stretched thin, and wondering whether you're doing leadership wrong, this episode is for you. CASE STUDY: Growing dental entrepreneur focused on leadership development and scaling beyond operator dependency. Transitioning from solo producer to business leader and team builder Learning how to scale leadership while maintaining practice culture Navigating the challenges of delegation and accountability Balancing practice growth with personal fulfillment and freedom Building systems that empower teams instead of creating dependency Redefining success beyond production and revenue numbers Understanding the difference between management, inspiration, and leadership Developing long-term vision for growth, team alignment, and sustainability Learning how to create optionality inside a growing business Leadership growth became the key bottleneck and breakthrough for scaling DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 436 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak GUEST: Dr. Tommy Dooley MyStory is a new Bulletproof series where real dentists share their real story: what's working, what's not, and the questions they can't get answered anywhere else. Each episode is a one-hour Master Class. Peter & Craig give practical advice, just like they do inside our Mastermind Program and at the Bulletproof Summit. The point is simple: you'll hear your own challenges in someone else's story, and leave with clear steps you can use right away to shift your mindset, strengthen your practice, and avoid the mistakes that make growth harder than it needs to be.

In this PART 2 episode, Mundo returns to tell the next chapter of his unbelievable story. After years as a high-ranking Mexican Mafia member involved in multiple murders and violent operations, he describes the religious experience he had in jail that changed the course of his life. What follows is a shocking account of becoming a secret informant while still surrounded by fugitives, gang politics, drugs, and murder. Mundo explains how he began working with law enforcement, why he felt driven to help bring down the same organization he once served, and how his undercover role pulled him deeper into danger. He talks about working around figures like Joe Morgan, Alfie, and Sailor, the chaos of double lives, cartel-connected drug operations, bank robberies, contract killings, and the moment everything began closing in on him again. He also reflects on the cost of that life, his Christian faith, witness protection, and how he later became a trainer and consultant for law enforcement. The conversation closes with a deep look at the Mexican Mafia today, its structure, cartel ties, Sureño influence, and how prison gang power still shapes the streets. This is a raw, intense interview about violence, betrayal, redemption, and survival from someone who lived at the center of it. For Part 1 go to https://youtu.be/BjPka7eDvoc Go Support Mundo!

How often does an employee's personality get mistaken for a performance problem, quietly undermining productivity across teams? In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Ariel Vox, award-winning author of Crack the Luck Code. Ariel blends psychology, storytelling, and leadership to help individuals unlock hidden strengths. Drawing on her unique LUCK personality archetypes, Lion, Umbrella Cockatoo, Coral, and Koala, she explains why high achievers often feel stuck, how weaknesses can become superpowers, and why one-size-fits-all productivity advice rarely works. Gerald and Ariel explore how understanding your dominant archetype (and those of your team or family) can transform communication, reduce conflict, and dramatically improve results. From the goal-driven Lion who needs big challenges to the detail-obsessed Koala who struggles to launch, you'll learn practical ways to work smarter, not harder. Ariel shares memorable analogies (including how each archetype would talk about buying a car) and real-world applications for leaders, employees, and families. She also opens up about sharing the stage with legends Les Brown and Jack Canfield, and the powerful lesson she learned about owning your unique voice. If you've ever felt misunderstood at work or home, or if you're leading a team that just can't seem to click, this episode will help you decode the personalities around you and unlock a new level of productivity.   What We Discuss [00:00] Introduction [02:01] Meet Ariel Vox and Cracking the Luck Code [05:04] Book Crack the Luck Code and  the four archetypes [06:26] L.U.C.K acronym explained [06:56] Lion personality [08:20] Umbrella Cockatoo (Parrot) personality [09:08] Coral personality [09:46] Koala personality [11:07] The car analogy [14:54] Communicating by personality type [15:42] Weaknesses as strengths [17:02] Balancing traits for growth [19:26] Gerald's mix (Lion + Koala) [21:18] Most people are mixed types [22:48] Goal setting for Lions [24:59] Productivity pitfalls and burnout [26:18] Leading different types [29:18] Travel plans for a family of four with different personalities [30:44] Stress and personality awareness [31:57] Lessons from Les Brown & Jack Canfield [33:41] One practical productivity tip you can apply today [34:41] Owning your unique value and voice [36:46] Where to find Ariel and her book [38:46] Podcast outro   Notable Quotes [05:30] " The reason productivity is very low sometimes, so with some people, some employees is because often they remain misunderstood." – Ariel Vox [05:59] " By overcoming these negative qualities, they achieve their superpowers."  – Ariel Vox [06:41] " No one is just one expression of personality, but some of them are more dominant than others."  – Ariel Vox [07:13] " Lions, they get excited by big goals. They would never go to chase a mouse. They would go to chase an antelope." – Ariel Vox [14:17] " You need to understand the personality of the other person, and it's very important the people give a subtle cues all the time, but you need to learn to read them."  – Ariel Vox [15:48] " I firmly believe that behind your weakness is where your greatest strength is hidden."  – Ariel Vox [16:48] " You need to adopt some of the other qualities.

In this week's episode, Victoria talks about her recent realization of how self-sabotage has manifested in her life over the last two years.

Megan Thee Stallion confirmed she and Klay Thompson have split after less than a year of dating, saying she called things off after the NBA player was allegedly unfaithful to her.

Your personal life will always be there, and for most of us, there will be some kind of stress .... good or bad stress.  If you wait for everything to be perfect before you stay disciplined ....  you will never stay consistent.  

  Celeste Rains-Turk interviewed newly crowned IFBB Fit Model Pro Kayla Truluck about her unique journey from bikini competition to becoming one of the first ten IFBB fit model pros. The conversation explored Kayla's competition experiences, faith, career as a nurse practitioner, personal life, and her holistic approach to bodybuilding. Kayla shared insights on training adaptations for the fit model division, refeed strategies, mindset, faith practices, and balancing her competitive goals with her healthcare career and personal life. They also discussed her upcoming pro debut, community involvement, and encouragement for other competitors. Key Discussion Topics 1. Transition to Fit Model Division Kayla switched from bikini to fit model only 6–8 weeks before her show, prompted by her coach and curiosity about the new category. She stopped training shoulders to adapt her physique, found the posing moderately different, and achieved early success by winning the Peach Classic and earning her pro card at Junior Nationals. 2. Competition Experiences & Preparation Preparing for her pro debut at St. Pete Pro in June 2026, with Tampa Pro planned a month later. Prefers a slower, sustainable prep style emphasizing refeeds (5–6 to date). Refeeds consist mainly of chicken sandwiches and fries, controlled with familiar condiments, occasionally including a cookie. 3. Mindset, Nervousness & Stage Rituals Uses prayer and mental cues from her posing coach to stay grounded and calm on stage. Keeps a lighthearted, sociable attitude backstage to manage nerves. 4. Balancing Career & Fitness Works full-time as a nurse practitioner performing pre-employment and VA disability exams. Finds fulfillment in helping veterans and building patient relationships. Prefers maintaining a career outside fitness to avoid burnout and keep perspective. 5. Faith and Personal Growth Practices daily devotionals and Bible reading; participates in a yearly plan and weekly devotional with her husband. Faith helped her navigate divorce and rediscover strength and purpose before meeting her current husband. 6. Personal Life and Faith Journey Met her husband serendipitously on a Southwest flight; they connected instantly and view it as a "God moment." Reflected on redemption after a challenging first marriage, citing faith as central to her healing and renewed joy. 7. Community, Volunteering, & Work-Life Balance Volunteers teaching young children at church, finding joy and purpose in service despite exhaustion. Maintains early morning workout routines, structured meal prep, and quiet time for reflection. 8. Humor and Behind-the-Scenes Moments Shared lighthearted competition stories including nearly missing stage call due to "nervous poops" after coffee and waking up with tan handprints. Emphasized that competing "isn't glamorous behind the scenes." Key Takeaways & Advice For New Competitors: Join the bodybuilding community early and find a supportive, experienced coach. Learn about nutrition, posing, and training before stepping on stage. Approach the process with patience—don't rush competition readiness. For Those on the Road to Pro: Trust the process and your coach. Focus on personal growth, not just winning. Celebrate each phase, knowing success unfolds according to God's plan.

There's a lot happening right now… and honestly, some of it is a little unsettling. From a shocking true crime update that keeps getting darker, to the rapid rise of AI scams that are fooling even smart people, this episode dives into what's really going on behind the headlines and why it matters more than you think. The conversation also gets real about how AI is impacting trust, business, and even your personal safety in ways most people are not paying attention to yet. Plus, there are some very real life updates, including a difficult health scare, a behind-the-scenes look at planning an emotional memorial service, and a reminder of what actually matters when everything feels overwhelming. This one is a mix of awareness, perspective, and real life… the kind of episode that makes you stop and think about what you're consuming, who you trust, and how fast things are changing.  

In this episode, Larry and coach Marc sit down to talk about one of the most common and least-talked-about crises facing business owner dads — burnout. Not the dramatic kind. The quiet, grinding, everyday kind where you're doing 14-hour days, drinking to decompress, wearing exhaustion like a badge of honor, and slowly losing the very people you're killing yourself to provide for. Featuring recorded clips from John — a real Boardroom member who came in on the brink of burnout — this episode is one of the most emotionally honest conversations we've had on this show. John's story will hit close to home for a lot of men. Working obsessively, drinking daily to escape, knowing something was wrong but believing the only answer was more action. His wife was losing her patience. He was losing himself. And then he stopped lone-wolfing it. Larry shares his own raw moment — telling his wife that if he's not providing, he doesn't know what value he brings to the family — and what his kids said when he and his wife actually asked them what they wanted most. Marc breaks down the BRAVE Man system, the tracker, and why busyness is not the same as results. And the episode closes with John getting so emotional he can't speak — and the silence that says everything.   Timeline Summary [0:00] Introduction to the Dad Edge mission and the movement to raise leaders of families and communities [1:02] The burnout that business owner dads don't talk about — grinding for your family while quietly losing them [2:44] Leaders usually starve — because they pour everything into everyone else but themselves [4:15] Introducing Marc Hildebrand — and what today's episode is really about [5:52] How Marc met John — on the brink of burnout, drinking daily, running 14-16 hour days [7:35] The shift Marc saw by weeks four and five — doing less, but achieving more [9:11] The GPS analogy — what life feels like without a system versus with one [10:37] Why we resist new tools even when they could save us — and the old-timer cops who threw out the Garmin [12:12] Wearing burnout as a badge of honor — and the people who love you who see it from a mile away [13:29] Your kids ask "Dad, are you okay?" and you think nobody noticed [14:45] John's first clip: what life looked like before he applied — work first, drinking to escape, lone-wolfing it [17:36] The heart behind the burnout — doing it all for your family, but missing what they actually need [19:20] What Marc saw in John — a man believing there was only one way to succeed [20:10] Larry's vulnerable moment: "If I'm not providing, what value do I bring this family?" [22:10] His kids' answer when asked what they wanted most — more time, not more money [22:29] The 13 Hours scene — a Navy SEAL on his 12th deployment finally hearing "the kids don't need more money, they need you" [24:37] Why being willing to have the vulnerable conversation is the game changer [25:10] John's second clip: getting a map, small goals, and what changed in his marriage [27:25] Breaking down the BRAVE Man system — Bond, Raise, Amplify, Vitality, Enjoy, Movement, Action, Network [28:04] Why joy is a tactical requirement — if you have no joy to give, you have nothing to give [28:50] Why motivation is a lie — and why action creates motivation, not the other way around [29:13] John's transformation from 15 points a week to 40-50 — and what the tracker actually measures [31:57] Busyness does not equal results — the most dangerous trap for burned-out business owners [32:18] John's final clip — the emotional moment that stopped everyone cold [35:28] What that moment meant — a man who saved his marriage and came back to himself [37:52] What it means to have a battle to fight, a beauty to love, and an adventure to be had — together [39:05] The call to every business owner who sees a piece of John in himself   Five Key Takeaways Burnout doesn't always look dramatic. It looks like 14-hour days, drinking to unwind, and quietly drifting away from the people you're working so hard to provide for. The people who love you most can see your burnout from a mile away — even when you think you're hiding it. Your kids see it. Your wife feels it. Your family doesn't want more money. They want more of you. When Larry asked his boys, the answer was time — every single time. The answer to burnout is not more action. It's better action, in the right areas, with a system that tells you what actually moves the needle. You are not a liability because you need help. John thought he had nothing to give when he walked in — and became one of the most valuable men in the room.   Links & Resources Dad Edge Alliance & Business Boardroom: https://thedadedge.com/mastermind The Men's Forge: https://themensforge.com Episode Link & Resources (Episode 1468): https://thedadedge.com/1468   Closing If there's one message from this episode that stands out, it's this: the answer to burnout is never more action — it's a better system, a map, and men around you who won't let you disappear. John came in wearing his exhaustion like a badge, drinking every day to survive it, and believing the only way through was to grind harder. Six weeks later, he was lighter. His marriage was coming back. And when Larry asked him what it felt like to make his way back — he couldn't speak. That silence said everything. If there's a piece of John in you right now, this is your move. Go out and live legendary.

This is a threshold week.If things feel accelerated, disorienting, or even unreal at moments, there is nothing wrong with you. This is what it can feel like when a collective initiation is underway and the ground of meaning itself begins to shift.At the center of it is a major transition. Uranus completes its long journey through Taurus and enters Gemini, where it will remain until 2033.We are already feeling this shift through the rapid rise of AI and the speed at which language, images, and information are now created and shared. This is one expression of Uranus in Gemini.Gemini governs the mind, perception, and communication. Uranus disrupts and accelerates. Together, they signal a revolution in how reality is constructed and understood.And it is happening quickly. Faster than most nervous systems and cultural structures can easily integrate.So if part of you feels awe, and part of you feels fear or grief, that makes sense. This is not just innovation. This is the unraveling of familiar ways of knowing.Key Cycles This Week:Monday: Mercury conjunct Saturn and Mars in Aries.Clarity meets pressure. Thought, action, and consequence come together. Discernment is essential.Thursday: Venus conjunct Uranus at the end of Taurus, then Venus enters Gemini.Venus foreshadows Uranus' threshold crossing, completing an eight-year cycle around values and security, and a subtle reorientation toward what is emerging.Saturday: Sun in Taurus square Pluto in Aquarius. Uranus enters Gemini.A larger turning point. Systems of power and meaning continue to transform as the mental and informational field accelerates.Sunday: Venus in Gemini sextile Neptune. Mercury square Jupiter.Inspiration and imagination are available, along with the risk of over-amplification or distortion.This moment can feel apocalyptic for many. Not necessarily the end of the world, but the end of a world. The loss of shared certainty, stable narratives, and familiar ways of orienting.There is real fear and grief here.We are in the death throes of modernity. Systems built on separation and control are destabilizing, and they do not dissolve cleanly. And this is also an initiation.We are being asked to develop new capacities. To stay present within complexity. To discern what is real in a rapidly shifting landscape.AI can generate language, but it cannot replace embodied knowing, relational presence, or the deeper intelligence that arises from being connected to the web of life.Reflection QuestionsWhere am I feeling both curiosity and unease about the rapid changes in technology and communication?What helps me stay grounded in my own knowing as information accelerates?As familiar structures feel like they are unraveling, what deeper ground am I being asked to root into?Where do I feel a shift in what I value, relate to, or am willing to engage with, even if I can't yet fully name it?If you feel something is ending, you are not imagining it. And if you feel something new is quietly emerging, that is also here.Stay close to what is real in your direct experience and in human ways that cannot be automated.Podcast poem: In Those Years by AdrienneSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.comThis episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation. At the edge where technology meets myth, I choose insight over noise, and alchemy over automation. Thank you for dreaming the future with me.

I am so excited to share this conversation with my wonderful colleague and friend, Dr. Catherine Kleshinski from Indiana University. We've all been there on a random Monday morning when someone asks, "How was your weekend?" and we're dying to share a picture of our new puppy or the chaos of a first birthday party. I used to think these me-search moments were just simple trust builders—and they are!  Catherine's latest research in the Journal of Applied Psychology reveals that there is a lot of nuance behind that water cooler talk. It turns out that while sharing the non-work vibes makes us all seem warmer, the way it impacts our reputation actually depends on where we sit in the hierarchy. So, how can we build authentic connections without accidentally triggering the workplace gossip mill? The Warmth Benefit vs. The Distraction Penalty: Everyone who shares positive personal news is perceived as warmer and more caring, but junior or lower-status employees may simultaneously be viewed as less focused on their professional responsibilities. "Everyone gets the warmth benefit, but the work ethic connotation depends on power dynamics." The Gossip Ripple Effect: Reputation isn't just a static feeling; it drives how people talk about you when you aren't in the room, leading to either flattering or unflattering workplace gossip. "If you have this reputation for being a relationship builder, people will engage in positive gossip about you, but if you are somebody with a reputation for being distracted, they'll gossip negatively about you."  The Invisible Line of Disclosure: There is a delicate balance between sharing enough to build trust and oversharing details like health issues or intense personal data that can make others uncomfortable.  Creating Safe Spaces for Connection: Leaders should focus on creating icebreakers that allow for choose-your-own-adventure levels of vulnerability so that no one feels pressured to share more than they are comfortable with.  Actionable Takeaway Audit your icebreakers. If you are a manager, be mindful that vulnerable sharing can unintentionally disadvantage your junior team members. Instead of asking personal questions, try a reciprocity ring where teammates request help with a specific task, or use "Tell Me Something Good" to allow people the choice between sharing a professional win or a personal one.

What if the key to clarity was just five minutes of stillness? In this solo episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh reflects on purpose, priorities, and the practices that help him gain direction during life transitions. Inspired by a workshop with his friend and spiritual teacher Dandapani, Darius shares a simple but powerful exercise: taking just five minutes each day to sit in silence and ask, “What do I want out of life?” He opens up about his own process, exploring the feelings he wants to cultivate, the kind of family and professional life he's building, and why recognition, influence, and freedom play important roles in shaping his next big chapter.

In this episode, we explore a simple but powerful idea: there is no wrong path to choose. Life unfolds as a tapestry of different paths, turns, and detours, and you get to decide which way to go. We reflect on the quiet morning voice of doubt, the pressures of expectations, and the notion that every choice, even those that don't feel perfect, offers growth, learning, and new possibilities. Through personal stories about parenting, college decisions, career shifts, and everyday life, we'll uncover how to listen to your inner compass, embrace curiosity, and make conscious decisions that align with who you are today. If you've ever wondered whether you're on the “right” path, this episode is for you.About the Host:Real Life Momz on Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/reallifemomz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Real Life Momz on Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/reallifemomzpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow on Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@reallifemomzpodcast4048?si=jj5bQ_Afhyl0ZNi7⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

The Institute of Internal Auditors Presents: All Things Internal Audit  Five women. Five careers. Decades of experience across some of the world's largest organizations. They didn't just find their way into this profession. They helped shape it.  In this companion episode to Internal Auditor magazine's "Leading the Way" article, five internal audit leaders sit for a conversation that's long overdue: Erin Banet, Doris Myles, Chrysti Ziegler, Dominique Vincenti, and Beili Wong. Together, they cover the careers they built, the rooms they walked into alone, and what they'd tell every woman in this profession today. You'll hear why preparing thoroughly is not the same as having permission to speak. You'll learn what it looks like to walk into a high-stakes conversation as a professional first, not as a woman managing a narrative. You'll hear the bad advice one of them ignored, and what happened when she did. And you'll discover what sponsorship really means when it's the difference between being mentored and having someone actively advocate on your behalf.     HOST: Catie Brown Associate Manager & Producer, Content Development, The IIA GUESTS: Erin Banet, CPA Chief Audit and Risk Officer, Humana Chrysti Ziegler, CIA, CRMA, CFE Chief Auditor, Citgo Petroleum Corporation Dominique Vincenti, CIA, CRMA Immediate Past CAE, Uber Board Member, Loft Orbital Beili Wong, CIA, CISA, CPAComptroller General, Ontario Treasury Board SecretariatDirector, Global Guidance, IIA Global Board of Directors Doris Myles, CIA, CPA Director of Internal Audit, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital     KEY POINTS: Introduction: Women's Voices in Internal Audit [00:00:02 – 00:01:33] Career Journeys Into Internal Audit [00:02:12 – 00:09:01] Finding Your Voice in High-Stakes Conversations [00:09:01 – 00:12:14] Confidence vs. Permission [00:12:21 – 00:15:23] Owning Expertise and Leading the Narrative [00:15:23 – 00:18:23] Early Career Challenges and Speaking Up [00:18:23 – 00:20:07] Progress of Women in Internal Audit Leadership [00:20:07 – 00:21:24] Redefining Leadership Through Empathy and Relationships [00:21:24 – 00:23:51] Women as Strategic Leaders, Not Just Technicians [00:23:51 – 00:24:57] The Value of Sponsorship vs. Mentorship [00:26:25 – 00:29:21] Creating Opportunities and Building Networks [00:29:21 – 00:31:51] Balancing Career and Personal Life [00:31:51 – 00:33:57] Final Reflections: Passion, Risk, and Owning Your Space [00:34:03 – 00:36:02] Closing Remarks [00:36:02 – 00:36:45]   Visit The IIA's website or YouTube channel for related topics and more.   IIA RELATED CONTENT:  Interested in this topic?

If burnout and stress are following you home from the workplace, you're not imagining it. When your personal life starts shrinking, it's often because your mind never truly leaves work. And if you can't set boundaries at work mentally, your body stays in fight-or-flight after hours. In this conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Guy Winch Ph.D., an internationally renowned psychologist who advocates for integrating the science of emotional health into our daily lives. We're talking about what happens when work hijacks your mind, your energy, your relationships, and your ability to actually be present in your own life. If you've been trying to figure out how to stop thinking about work, how to leave work at work, or how to set boundaries at work in a way that truly protects your personal life, this episode is for you. We unpack why burnout is not just about long hours, but about rumination, emotional overload, and staying mentally switched on long after the workday ends. Dr. Guy shares practical ideas for burnout recovery, including how to stop ruminating after hours, shift out of autopilot, and create simple transition rituals that help you reconnect with yourself and the people you love.

For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.   Main Topic Remembering Chuck Norris   Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris was born on March 10, 1940, in Ryan, Oklahoma. He was a renowned martial artist, actor, and author, famous for his roles in action films and the television series "Walker, Texas Ranger," and he also founded his own martial arts system called Chun Kuk Do.  Oklahoma Historical Society Wikipedia Early Life Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris was born on March 10, 1940, in Ryan, Oklahoma. He was the eldest of three brothers. His father, Ray Norris, served in World War II and later worked various jobs, while his mother, Wilma, had Irish ancestry. At age 12, Norris moved to Torrance, California, where he later joined the United States Air Force in 1958.   Martial Arts Career Norris began training in martial arts while stationed in South Korea, where he learned Tang Soo Do. He became a successful martial artist, winning numerous championships, including the World Professional Middleweight Karate title for seven consecutive years. In 1990, he made history as the first American to achieve the rank of 8th Degree Black Belt Grand Master in Taekwondo.   Acting Career Norris made his film debut in "The Wrecking Crew" (1968) and gained fame through action films like "Way of the Dragon" (1972) alongside Bruce Lee, and the "Missing in Action" series starting in 1984. He starred in the popular television series "Walker, Texas Ranger" from 1993 to 2001.   Personal Life and Legacy Norris has been married twice and has five children. He is a devout Christian and has written several books on martial arts, philosophy, and self-help.

The robbery victims were also armed, however, and one or both of them responded by shooting at the alleged assailants. One of the robbery suspects died and the other was critically wounded. Police detained all involved but said the incident appeared to be self-defense. (fox13news.com, Tampa Bay, Fla., 1/24/26)   From the Armed Citizen® Archives – January 1989 An 89-year-old Ft. Wayne, Ind. woman was talking on the phone when the line went dead. Later, she heard noises and thought someone was trying to break in. So she headed out the door to a neighbor's house to call the police. But, as she opened the door, a man wearing a black hood pushed her back into the house. Her 91-year-old husband heard the commotion and grabbed a shotgun. The hooded man told the husband to get back, but when the resident continued to advance, the hooded man fled. “The gun saved us,” the woman said. “Boy, did he run.” (The News Sentinel, Fort Wayne, Ind.)     Wrap Up: -Send feedback to GodandGunsTV@gmail.com -Please tell your friends about us,

Hello to you listening in Alexandria, Virginia! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. Growing up in a family of 9 I remember a never-ending stack of dishes, cups, bowls and silverware to wash and dry. There was also the never-ending arguing about whose job it was to wash the dishes. Eventually our parents caved and bought a dishwasher; but the arguing didn't end there. Did you know there is a right way and a wrong way to stack items in a dishwasher? Who knew? Dishes face this way, cups face that way, silverware goes like so. One person's different system was perceived as wrong by someone else. Believe it or not, one of the advantages of living in a big family is the ever-present teaching moment, like this one: "Just because you do things differently, you are not wrong.” Story Prompt: When in your personal or professional life have you done something differently only to be told it was wrong? What happened next? Write that story and share it out loud!  You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us! You will have wonderful company as we continue to walk our lives together.

In this episode, Jill responds to a listener question about how to keep showing up in your business during major personal upheaval, drawing from her own experience leaving her first marriage in 2015. While a difficult season of life, like a breakup or divorce, can shake your confidence, it doesn't erase your expertise or your ability to help others. Getting out of your own head through service to others is one of the most powerful ways to pull yourself through hard times, since rumination keeps you stuck while action moves you forward. You don't need to have everything figured out to add value to someone else's life.   Get on the waitlist for FBA: https://jillfitfree.com/fba-waitlist/   Join the Strategy Lab: https://www.jillfitprograms.com/the-strategy-lab   Jill is a fitness professional and business coach who effectively made the transition from training clients in person and having no time to build anything else to training clients online and actually being more successful.
