Most "healthy" drinks aren't what they claim—and your body feels it long before you realize why. In this episode, Justine Reichman sits down with entrepreneur Bryan Appio, founder of Dry Water, to unpack what really happens when you start paying attention to what's inside your hydration. After losing everything during the pandemic, Bryan hit a breaking point that forced him to rethink his health from the ground up—leading to a product built on transparency, not shortcuts. They dive into the hidden truth behind "natural flavors," why most electrolyte drinks are loaded with sugar or unnecessary salt, and how the wellness industry often prioritizes profit over clarity. But more importantly, this conversation shifts how you think about everyday choices: what you drink, how you fuel your body, and why simplicity might be the most powerful upgrade you can make. This episode will change the way you read labels—and the way you take care of yourself. Key Takeaways: Why "natural flavors" can hide dozens of unknown ingredients The real problem with most electrolyte and hydration drinks How small daily habits impact long-term health Why clean, simple ingredients matter more than marketing claims The mindset shift that turns failure into your next breakthrough If you've ever felt tired without knowing why—or questioned what's really in your food and drinks—this conversation will hit home. Meet Bryan:  Bryan Appio is the founder and CEO of Dry Water, a next-generation hydration company committed to clean ingredients, transparency, and everyday wellness. A lifelong entrepreneur, Bryan previously built and exited an early staffing "gig economy" model, before redirecting his focus to health and sustainability after the pandemic exposed his own gaps in nutrition and hydration. Motivated by personal health challenges and a deep frustration with misleading "natural flavor" claims and sugar-laden sports drinks, Bryan spent years reverse-engineering the hydration category. He developed Dry Water as a daily wellness solution built on real fruit, plant-based ingredients, zero sugar, and no artificial additives, designed to support gut, brain, and metabolic health while minimizing reliance on pills and highly processed products. Under his leadership, Dry Water has grown from kitchen experiments to a national brand available in major retailers like Walmart, Walgreens, Target, and Kroger, reaching hundreds of thousands of customers largely through education-driven, word-of-mouth growth rather than heavy ad spend. Bryan's approach centers on regenerative business principles: investing in consumer education, prioritizing clean supply chains even when crops fail or costs rise, and refusing to compromise on non-negotiables around ingredient integrity. A strong advocate for women's sports and youth wellness, Bryan has partnered with League One Volleyball (LOVB) to bring cleaner hydration to thousands of young athletes and professional players, aligning performance with long-term health. Through Dry Water, he is demonstrating that it is possible to scale a profitable, high-growth CPG brand while honoring transparency, ethical sourcing, and the long-term well-being of people and planet.

If you've ever wondered how AI can be used to deepen emotional intelligence, or you're searching for practical steps to drive meaningful change in your life, this episode will spark fresh insights and inspiration.Welcome to Spirit of EQ! I'm Eric Pennington, your host, and in this episode, I have the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Teresa Escrig, an expert in artificial intelligence, an entrepreneur, and a spiritual practitioner.Our conversation explores the fascinating intersection of AI and human consciousness, revealing how tools like ChatGPT can serve as powerful mirrors for our self-discovery and growth.Teresa Escrig shares her innovative “mirror method,” which is built around four key pillars: awareness, alignment, boundaries, and empowered decision-making.As we break down some common misconceptions about spirituality, we discuss the challenges of setting healthy boundaries, taking responsibility for our lives, and the ways technology can both amplify our strengths and reflect our struggles.This is a thought-provoking conversation connecting science, spirit, and everyday personal growth.Moments00:00 Integrating AI and Consciousness06:56 AI & Human Ascension Dialogue11:55 "Authenticity as Personal Value"16:55 "Alignment: Value, Purpose, Direction"26:04 "Demystifying Clarity and Focus"32:13 "Self-Knowledge for Life's Path"37:10 "Discovering Tools Within"39:50 "Transformation: Tools and Process"43:44 "Human Regression, AI Advancement"49:06 Rejecting Divisiveness for Positivity58:27 "Brain Makes Best-Guess Decisions"01:00:26 Rewiring Mindset for PositivityHere are my top 3 takeaways:AI as a Mirror for Growth: Teresa introduces the concept of using AI chatbots as a "mirror method"—a way to reflect on our own behaviors and patterns, helping us gain invaluable self-insight. When we interact intentionally, AI can amplify our awareness and support clearer, healthier decision-making.Four Pillars for Aligned Decision-Making: Teresa shares her four-pillar method (awareness, alignment, responsibility, and decision-making) that guides users to interact with AI (and people!) in ways that are consistent with their deepest values and goals.Empowerment Through Integration: Rather than viewing technology as something that divides or diminishes us, Teresa encourages us to integrate it into our self-development practices. When used mindfully, AI can accelerate both our emotional intelligence and spiritual evolution.In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

I am just vibrating with excitement after my chat with Aiko Bethea ! If you've followed her work as I have, you know she's basically the gold standard for building cultures that actually mean something . We got into the nitty-gritty of her new book, Anchored, Aligned, and Accountable, and let me tell you, it is the blueprint we need right now . I even got a little unplanned coaching session myself—turns out, even after years in the DEI space, I'm still a recovery fixer trying to work my way out of every hard feeling . Aiko gently called me out on that toxic productivity narrative we've all been fed since we were kids . It's time to stop responding to everyone else's agenda and start leading from the inside out . Key Themes from the Conversation The Power of Personal Values as an Anchor Aiko emphasizes that identifying two or three core values acts as a physical tether, preventing leaders from being swept away by external pressures or "ick" feelings they can't quite name . Finding out what was most important to them, which I name in the book as identifying their values, being anchored into their values... helped them to close that gap, and to make key changes in how they were showing up. Identifying and Challenging Bullshit Narratives The framework encourages leaders to interrogate "bullshit"—the unexamined, default beliefs inherited from family or workplace cultures that often prioritize productivity or defensiveness over authenticity . I want people to think, says who? And how would I want it to be, or need it to be, to be anchored? Intrinsic Motivation vs. External Approval True inclusive leadership isn't about being a "good guy" or seeking external glorification; it is about self-awareness and aligning one's actions with one's aspirational self . It's going to be about, wow, how does this leave me sitting, or feeling, and... if I... my aspirational self was this, what would I do differently? The Necessity of Meaningful, Public Accountability When a leader makes a mistake, a private "I'll do better" isn't enough to shift a culture; it requires a specific, humble apology that acknowledges the impact on the team . When he did a very specific apology that was public about what he did... whoa, shifts everything, because now people see, oh man, he's showing up differently... he realized this behavior isn't okay. Actionable Takeaway Start your own self-interrogation by identifying one "should" in your professional life. Ask yourself, says who? If that belief doesn't align with your core values, give yourself the grace to drop the behavior and replace it with an action that feels anchored .

Every pregnant person deserves the information and support they need to make truly informed decisions about labor induction. In this encore episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Dr. Ann Peralta and Kari Radoff, CNM, the co-creators of Partner to Decide, a nonprofit improving decision-making in perinatal care. They discuss their free, multilingual decision aid that helps families understand their options around routine induction of labor and empowers them to advocate for their own values, preferences, and autonomy. Ann shares how her own birth experience, shaped by access to education and privilege, sparked the creation of the tool. Kari offers insight into how the decision aid has changed conversations in clinical settings, bringing clarity, reducing bias, and fostering truly shared decision-making. Together, they illuminate how access to balanced information can reduce anxiety, improve trust, and shift the culture of perinatal care.

FREE RESOURCE:  Check out the group health calculator! https://www.michelleperis.com/lm-group-program-calculator-opt-in   In this honest conversation, Dr. Michelle and Dr. Tara discuss the entrepreneurial journey of health practitioners, focusing on the critical decisions of when to pause, pivot, or burn down aspects of their businesses.  They explore the importance of discernment, the challenges of marketing, and the necessity of nervous system regulation in navigating these decisions. The discussion emphasizes the value of taking breaks to gain perspective and the growth that can come from difficult choices in entrepreneurship. Dr. Tara and Dr. Michelle discuss the importance of defining life and business boundaries, asking intentional questions, and building confidence through experiences.  This conversation emphasizes the need for clarity and intentionality in decision-making, understanding one's capacity, and the cost of success, including burnout.  They highlight the significance of supportive relationships and the journey of self-discovery, resilience through failure, and the importance of finding a community that aligns with one's values and dreams.   Takeaways It's hard to know when to pause, pivot, or burn it down. Discernment is a predictive factor of success. Marketing often highlights only the positive aspects of entrepreneurship. The journey requires hard work and sacrifice. Understanding your nervous system is crucial for decision-making. The moment of tension is an opportunity for growth. Taking a pause can provide clarity and perspective. Many entrepreneurs quit when they hit a wall, but often they just need a break. Burning it down can lead to new beginnings and growth. You must be willing to adapt and change your approach.  It's crucial to define what you want your life to look like as an entrepreneur. Asking the right questions can lead to better decision-making. Building confidence comes from experience and intentionality. Clarity about who you serve and your boundaries is essential. Understanding your capacity helps manage energy and expectations. Success can come at a cost, including burnout and disconnection. Defining what 'enough' means to you is vital for personal fulfillment. Supportive relationships can significantly impact your entrepreneurial journey. Self-discovery is a continuous process that shapes your business decisions. Resilience is built through learning from failures and setbacks.   Chapters 00:00 Welcome Back and Introduction to Entrepreneurial Perspectives 03:08 Navigating Business Decisions: Pause, Pivot, or Burn It Down 10:29 The Importance of Discernment in Entrepreneurship 19:31 Understanding the Moment of Tension 27:18 The Pain and Growth of Burning It Down 33:31 Defining Life and Business Boundaries 35:00 The Importance of Intentional Questions 36:25 Building Confidence Through Experience 38:14 The Power of Clarity and Intentionality 41:06 Understanding Capacity and Energy Management 47:59 The Cost of Success and Burnout 49:18 Defining Enough and Personal Values 52:23 The Role of Supportive Relationships 54:54 The Journey of Self-Discovery and Growth 59:27 Resilience Through Failure and Learning 01:03:47 Finding Your Community and Support 01:06:10 Dreaming Big and Overcoming Doubts   Stay Wild.

In this raw episode of Do Good to Lead Well, I welcome Tom Hardin, whose journey from Wall Street hedge fund analyst to one of the FBI's most prolific informants is a powerful examination of what drives good people to cross ethical lines. Despite the widespread belief that corruption comes from major events, Tom outlines the subtle drift and rationalizations that can turn ambition into poor decisions.Tom makes a compelling case that most people are far more vulnerable to contextual pressures than they would care to admit. In fact, he argues that the more confident we are in our belief that we are incorruptible, the more likely we are to make an ethical misstep. Through honest storytelling, the episode urges us to move beyond blaming or distancing ourselves, challenging us to ask better questions, reflect on our own values, and foster workplaces where psychological safety and true accountability can thrive.For anyone seeking a deeply personal and vulnerable understanding of ethics, culture, and resilience, this conversation delivers practical tools for self-reflection, leadership, and building lasting trust. These heartfelt lessons matter at every level of business and life.What You'll Learn- Why 80% of us are at risk of “moral drift” if we're not vigilant- The crucial difference between mistakes and choices- Culture is what gets rewarded- How leaders can spot and stop ethical slippage, starting with “the little things”- The power of asking better questions—not just of your team, but of yourself- Why honesty, humility, and self-forgiveness are the real superpowers in leadershipPodcast Timestamps(00:00) – The Decision to Share a Profound Story of Vulnerability(05:14) – Cheating is a Choice(09:19) – Ownership, Shame, and the Challenges of Self-Forgiveness(13:06) – Moral Drift and Rationalization(16:35) – How to Spot Warning Signs(24:05) – Culture, Values, and Leadership(40:01) – Resilience and Redemption(45:08) – Radical Listening(48:22) – A Story of Hope and Personal AgencyKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Insider Trading, Behavioral Ethics, Organizational Culture, FBI Informant, Compliance, Self-Reflection, Vulnerability, Rationalization, Psychological Safety, Ethical Culture, Whistleblowing, Character Development, Integrity, Reputation vs. Character, The Peril of Incentive Structures, Ethical Decision-Making, Personal Values, Resilience, Redemption, Asking Clarifying Questions, Moral Drift, Organizational Justice, CEO Success

Welcome back to the Compared to Who? podcast and our ongoing series, Waiting for Weight Loss. In today’s episode, Heather Creekmore shares a powerful story about a time when her identity—literally—was stolen, setting the stage for an honest discussion about our true identity in Christ. Episode Highlights: Heather Creekmore opens up with a personal experience of being mugged and losing her physical identification, making the connection to how many of us “lose” our spiritual identity while chasing the approval of others or pursuing body goals. She asks: Has your identity been stolen—figuratively—by misplaced priorities, societal pressures, or the pursuit of weight loss? We explore the idea that any identity outside of Christ is a “fake ID,” and discuss what it means to rest in our adoption as daughters (and sons) of God. Heather Creekmore unpacks how our attempts to earn love and acceptance through appearance or achievements are distractions from the Gospel. The healthiest approach to weight loss and goals? Pursuing them from a place of already being fully loved and accepted, not from a place of insecurity or striving to earn worth. Reflection Questions: What “fake IDs” have you been carrying? How would your approach to your body and your goals change if you truly believed your identity was already secure in Christ? Check out Episode on Boasting Here Join the Community!Join the conversation! Heather Creekmore invites you to become part of our supportive community at waitingforweightloss.com.

What happens when high-achieving women finally pause long enough to ask why they are so exhausted? In this candid and deeply reflective conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe is joined by Anne Peterson, leadership coach and retreat facilitator, and Dr. Robyn Alley-Hay, retired OB/GYN and physician development coach, to redefine what self-care truly means for women who carry responsibility, ambition, and care for others every day.   Drawing from their professional work and lived experience with burnout, illness, and reinvention, Anne and Robyn explore self-care as an act of sovereignty rather than indulgence. They unpack why women's exhaustion is not a personal failing but the result of systemic expectations, invisible emotional labor, and a culture that undervalues care. The conversation moves beyond surface-level wellness to address boundaries, rest, community, emotional awareness, and financial clarity as essential components of sustainable well-being.   [00:00:00 – From Burnout to Awareness [00:09:31 – Redefining Self-Care Beyond the Surface [00:20:46 – Sovereignty, Worth, and Personal Value [00:32:31 – Boundaries, Energy, and Saying No [00:44:16 – Community, Emotional Labor, and Celebration [00:56:41 – Financial Care, Rest, and Sustainable Practice

This research is important because it negates the big narrative that says women are behind men in prestige and financial gain because of biases and barriers against them.The data tells a different story.Part 2 is focused on how money is no longer a masculine contribution, how men have lost the fulfillment in meaning in work that used to be there, how important apprenticeships are for young men, and trying to understand what is work actually for and is the answer to that different for men and women?00:00 – 00:21 Trailer00:25 – 00:45 Introduction 00:45 – 04:19 Women vs Men Narrative 04:19 – 06:27: Why Fewer Female CEOs Exist 06:27 – 07:27 Screen Share: Life Values Data 07:27 – 09:00 Women's Primary Motivations Beyond Money 09:00 – 10:00 Why Work Feels Unnatural for Women 10:00 – 11:23 Societal Pressure vs Personal Values 11:23 – 12:20 Biological Influence on Preferences 12:20 – 14:17 Closing Reflections on Purpose and Work14:17 - 14:26 Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

In this episode, Christian Rodwell interviews Dr. John Demartini—renowned human behaviour specialist, author of over 40 self-development books, and creator of the Demartini Method and Values Determination Process. They discuss why only a small percentage of people ever reach financial independence, how our values shape every decision and outcome, and the practical steps to align your life and business with what matters most. Dr. Demartini shares actionable strategies for changing your values, overcoming internal and external obstacles, and building a life of purpose, fulfilment, and financial freedom.Key Topics & InsightsThe Power of Values in Achieving Financial Independence1. Why Most People Don't Achieve Financial Freedom:Many people dream of it but fail to achieve it due to misaligned values—spending on consumables versus investing in assets.True financial independence comes from prioritising asset-building and recurring income over lifestyle spending.2. Values Drive Behaviour:Our daily habits and character are shaped by what we value most.Living according to your highest values leads to fulfilment and greater achievement.Mindset, Motivation, and Overcoming Challenges1. Defining Mindset:Mindset is the set of attitudes and beliefs that shapes how we respond to challenges.A strong, positive mindset is developed through habits, education, and self-awareness.2. Intrinsic Motivation:When goals align with your highest values, you act from within—no external motivation needed.If your goals and values are misaligned, procrastination and lack of discipline follow.The Values Determination Process1. Finding Your Highest Values:Identify what you value most and structure your day around it.Use the Values Determination Process (available for free at drdemartini.com) to gain clarity.2. Changing Your Values:You can “stack up” the benefits of new behaviours to shift your values over time.Either set goals that match your current values, or consciously change your values to match your goals.Habits, Discipline, and Delegation1. Habits Are Value-Driven:You're naturally disciplined in areas aligned with your highest values.“Bad habits” are often strategies to fulfil unconscious motives; bring awareness to these motives to change behaviour.2. Delegation as a Path to Fulfilment:List all your daily tasks, their value, meaning, and cost to delegate.Focus your time on high-value, meaningful work and delegate the rest to free up time and energy.Surround yourself with people whose highest values align with the tasks you delegate.Entrepreneurship, Career, and Life Transitions1. Making the Leap:Don't leave your job for entrepreneurship until your new venture is proven to generate more income and fulfilment.Use your current role as a stepping stone—appreciate its value and leverage the skills you gain.Strategic planning and risk mitigation are essential; avoid jumping based on fantasy.2. Business Success:Many businesses fail because founders project their fantasies onto the market instead of meeting real needs.Find the overlap between your inspiration and what the market wants—this is your niche.The ABCs of Negativity1. What Causes Negativity:Setting goals not aligned with your values, or expecting others to live outside theirs, leads to anger, blame, criticism, despair, and more.These negative states are feedback mechanisms signalling unrealistic expectations.Law of Attraction and the Brain1. Practical Law of Attraction:Your innermost dominant thought—driven by your highest value—becomes your reality.The brain is wired to notice opportunities that align with your values.Visualisation works best when congruent with your true values.Daily Routines and Legacy1. Dr. Demartini's Daily Discipline:Documents daily gratitude and sets seven highest priority actions each morning.Focuses on research, writing, teaching, and travel—his highest values.Simple, focused routines support high performance.2. Legacy:Aims to inspire others to recognise their inner magnificence and leave a lasting educational impact.The Demartini Prize and Institute are part of his long-term vision.Practical Tips & Action Steps1. Discover Your Values:Use Dr. Demartini's free Values Determination Process at drdemartini.com.2. Prioritise Your Day:Fill your day with high-priority, value-aligned actions to avoid distractions and burnout.3. Delegate Low-Value Tasks:Identify tasks you can outsource or delegate to focus on your strengths and passions.4. Strategically Plan Career Moves:Don't make impulsive jumps—build, test, and validate new ventures before leaving your current role.5. Stack Benefits to Change Habits:To change behaviour, consciously list and focus on the advantages of the new desired action.6. Practice Daily Gratitude:End each day by documenting what you're grateful for and what you've achieved.Quotes & Social Proof“If you don't fill your day with high-priority actions that inspire you, it fills up with low-priority distractions that don't.”“You're automatically disciplined in whatever allows you to fulfil what's highest on your value.”“Depression is a comparison of your current reality to a fantasy you keep holding onto.”Dr. Demartini has inspired millions globally, with hundreds of books and thousands of live presentations Resources & Next StepsDr. Demartini's Website: drdemartini.comWealthBuilders MembershipConnect with Us:Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.For more inspiring stories and actionable tips, subscribe to Wealth Talk and leave us a review!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!If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review WealthTalk on your favourite podcast platform

Personal Values & Boundaries- Red/White Flag Episode

In this episode, I discuss personal values with Bob Glazer, Founder, Chairman Of The Board at Acceleration Partners, and author of "The Compass Within." Bob emphasizes the importance of recognizing our values, especially during challenges, as they reveal our true beliefs. We explore his book's framework for identifying these core values, rooted in personal experiences. Bob introduces his "core validator" system to help articulate values effectively and shares strategies for integrating value-driven decisions in organizations. This conversation highlights how understanding our values enhances leadership, fosters authenticity, and leads to a more fulfilling life. Robert's Book: The Compass Within Barriers to Defining Values The Inner Critic Understanding the Inner Compass Decision-Making Frameworks Common Mistakes with Values The Power and Purpose of Personal Values In this episode, I sit down with Bob Glazer, Founder and Chairman of the Board at Acceleration Partners and author of The Compass Within, to explore the vital role personal values play in leadership and life. Bob explains that our values are most visible during moments of discomfort or conflict when our reactions reveal what we truly believe. He encourages leaders to pay attention to tension or frustration as indicators of when a value may be compromised. Through practical examples, Bob illustrates how clearly defined values serve as a compass for better decision-making, stronger relationships, and greater fulfillment both personally and professionally. The Book: Behind The Compass Within Bob shares the inspiration and intent behind his latest book, The Compass Within. The book offers a structured yet personal framework for identifying and defining one's core values. Drawing from years of coaching and collaboration with thousands of leaders, Bob explains how our deepest values often stem from formative life experiences, both the moments that shaped us and the ones that challenged us. Through a blend of storytelling and practical strategy, Bob's work guides readers to uncover their authentic drivers and align their leadership with what truly matters most. His “core validator” system provides a tangible process to ensure values are distinct, actionable, and easy to apply in real life.

Every pregnant person deserves the information—and support—they need to make truly informed decisions about labor induction. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Dr. Ann Peralta and Kari Radoff, CNM, co-creators of Partner to Decide, a nonprofit initiative improving decision-making in perinatal care. They discuss the creation of their free, multilingual decision aid that supports families in understanding their options around routine induction of labor—and empowers them to advocate for their values, preferences, and autonomy.   Ann shares how her own birth experience, shaped by access to education and privilege, sparked the creation of the tool. Kari offers insight into how the decision aid has changed conversations in clinical settings—bringing clarity, reducing bias, and fostering truly shared decision-making. Together, they illuminate how access to balanced information can reduce anxiety, improve trust, and shift the culture of perinatal care.   (03:02) What Is a Decision Aid and Why It Matters (07:12) Ann's Birth Story and the Origins of Partner to Decide (11:09) Gaps in Shared Decision-Making from a Provider's Perspective (14:24) Personal Values, Intuition, and Cultural Differences (18:19) Designing the Decision Aid with Equity and Accessibility (23:49) The Power of Absolute vs. Relative Risk in Birth Conversations (25:01) Surprising Patient Feedback: From Access to Empowerment (30:31) Provider Reflections and Challenging Bias (36:11) Why “Routine” Induction Language Matters (43:59) How to Respond to Pressure or Coercion Around Induction (46:16) How to Access the Free Decision Aid and Support New Tools   Resources Access the free Induction of Labor Decision Aid in seven languages: www.inductiondecisionaid.org Learn more about the nonprofit: www.partnertodecide.org For more information about Evidence Based Birth® and a crash course on evidence based care, visit www.ebbirth.com.

Today's guest is Neil Mehta, founder of Greenoaks Capital. In 2012, aged 27, Neil left D.E. Shaw to start Greenoaks with his friend Benny Peretz. One of their first investments was in Coupang, a South Korean e-commerce company led by founder Bom Kim. Neil was so convinced of Coupang's potential that he invested 40% of their initial $50 million fund into the company—a bet that eventually returned about $8 billion. Over its first 13 years, Greenoaks has backed legendary companies like Figma, Wiz, Carvana, Stripe, Discord, Rippling, and Toast—generating over $13 billion in gross profits with a 33% net IRR. Henry Kravis, one of Neil's early investors, describes him as "extremely disciplined" with "exceptional timing" who has "gone against the tide many times." Greenoaks operates with remarkable concentration: just 55 core companies across nearly $15 billion in assets, managed by only nine investment professionals. Their approach reflects their singular pursuit: finding companies that will become a meaningful part of the S&P 500.
