Most people are chasing crowded markets, trendy ideas, and “sexy” businesses and getting nowhere. Then there's Nic Breedlove. Nic is the CEO of NVB Playgrounds, a company that's quietly building high-quality, community-focused play spaces across the country and turning a niche most people overlook into a real business opportunity.  In this episode, we dig into what it actually looks like to build something from scratch in an industry you didn't come from, without a roadmap, and without anyone handing you the playbook. We talk about scaling in a low-margin business, standing out in a space most people ignore, and why some of the best opportunities aren't the ones everyone's talking about. Nic also shares the behind-the-scenes realities- the challenges, pivots, and moments where things went sideways…but ended up leading to growth.   What you'll learn: How to build a business with zero background or blueprint  Why “boring” industries can be the most profitable  How to scale in a low-margin space without burning out  The role of creativity, design, and innovation in standing out  Why resilience matters more than strategy early on    If you're serious about creating income streams, this episode will challenge you to stop chasing trends and start looking where nobody else is.   Find Nic Breedlove at https://www.playgroundequipment.com/  Biography of Play: A CEO's Perspective of Running through Seasons of Disruption in an Unfamiliar Industry of Commercial Playground Equipment- https://amzn.to/4e5tmJZ    --- Click here to change your life- http://eepurl.com/gy5T3T   Hit me up for a one-on-one brainstorming session- https://militaryimagesproject.com/products/brainstorming-session-1-hour    Check out my Linktree for different ways to rock your world! https://linktr.ee/ruggeddad    Check out the sweet Hyper X mic I'm using. https://amzn.to/41AF4px    Check out my best-selling books: Rapid Skill Development 101- https://amzn.to/3J0oDJ0 Streams of Income with Ryan Reger- https://amzn.to/3SDhDHg Strangest Secret Challenge- https://amzn.to/3xiJmVO This page contains affiliate links.

Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide and see behavioral design applied to real products and services: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Eleanor Ross, Creative Director at Expert Theory and one of the youngest recipients of the National Training and Simulation Association's Top Under 40 award, breaks down how she designs wargames and simulations that put learners inside high stakes decisions instead of watching from the outside. She walks through the moment a Team USA group tried to buy Greenland mid game, the Logic, Function, Form framework she uses to build every simulation, and a year long Taiwan resilience exercise she ran for the Irregular Warfare Center. Listeners come away with two best practices that make any simulation stick, a debrief discipline and deliberate role reversal, plus a clear view of how AI tools now let a team produce news articles and role player materials in under ten minutes. Ross also makes the case that heavy topics like terrorism, invasion, and irregular warfare land harder when they are engaging, and that good design starts by deciding what people should feel when they walk out. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways In an early Arctic simulation run as an alpha test for the Canadian Department of National Defense, a Team USA group went off script and tried to buy Greenland, a move no one had prepared for, which forced Ross to build the response live. Ross and her team at Expert Theory adjudicated that unplanned move and used their AI backend to produce news articles, tweets, and formatted materials for a role player in under ten minutes, a turnaround the wargaming community historically treated as impossible. Her Logic, Function, Form framework stacks design like a pyramid: Logic defines what players should know and feel on the way out, Function defines the actors and goals that get them there, and Form covers constraints like the 30 or 90 minute time box. A quality debrief is the most important best practice in simulation design, because the takeaways people carry out are set up by the structured discussion, not by the game itself. Putting participants in roles they would never hold, such as US military officers playing the Somali government or the US embassy in a Fort Bragg deployment game, forces the perspective shift that makes the lesson land. Ross builds her design philosophy on Rutger Bregman's Humankind and its claim that people are inherently good, using games to surface the nuances behind how opposing sides actually see themselves.

She designs and facilitates simulations that restore agency to learners by placing them inside complex, high stakes decisions, and her co-authored research with the National Counterterrorism Innovation, Technology and Education Center has shown that simulations measurably deepen learning while strengthening confidence, teamwork, and decision making. She chairs programming for the Women's Wargaming Network and is one of the youngest ever recipients of the National Training and Simulation Association's Top Under 40 award.

Show Notes: Ian McNeely talks about his academic path, including a PhD in History from the University of Michigan and a position in the Society of Fellows at Harvard. He met his wife at Harvard, and they both found work at the University of Oregon where they became professors. They raised a family and lived there for 24 years. In 2024, Ian moved to UNC Chapel Hill, where he continues as a professor of history and oversees undergraduate education.  The Society of Fellows When asked about the Society of Fellows,  Ian explains that he thought of it as a mystique during his undergraduate years. The Society was conceived in the 1930s as an alternative to the PhD, offering young men (later women) a three-year fellowship with no academic requirements. Ian attended lavish dinners and lunches with other fellows, including senior fellows from Harvard faculty. He met his wife at the Society, and the fellowship allowed him to convert his dissertation into a book, which was crucial for his tenure. Exploring  the History of Knowledge Ian explains how he and his wife co-wrote a book on the history of knowledge, covering various institutions like libraries, monasteries, and universities. He describes the different definitions of knowledge across these institutions, from written debates in libraries to scientific experiments in laboratories. Ian emphasizes the importance of institutions in defining what counts as knowledge. He discusses the role of vernacular knowledge and how it has been institutionalized over time. A Fellow's Activities Ian talks about his activities as a fellow. He describes his monastic approach, focusing on conversations with people outside his field. Ian interacted with particle physicists, art historians, and other disciplines, which broadened his perspective. He bonded with his wife, who is a medieval historian, over their mutual disdain for the Renaissance. Ian values the diverse group of equals in the Society of Fellows and the opportunity to explore various aspects of knowledge. The Politicization of Higher Education The conversation turns to Ian's current role as Associate Dean for Undergraduate Education at UNC Chapel Hill. He discusses the politicization of higher education and the challenges of the proliferation of knowledge. Ian emphasizes the importance of helping students diversify their intellectual portfolios to hedge against unpredictability, and he expresses optimism that AI will be a force multiplier rather than a replacement for human judgment and expertise. The Impact of AI on Undergraduate Education Ian believes AI will not replace human judgment but will be a force multiplier for routine tasks. He stresses the importance of communication skills, teamwork, ethical judgment, and aesthetic judgment in the face of AI. Ian advises students to use AI as a refinement tool after doing cognitive heavy lifting themselves. He emphasizes the importance of preserving curiosity-driven knowledge alongside applied knowledge, and he states  that rote-type learning will not be needed while high-level skills will be sought by employers.  The Changing Definition of Knowledge  Ian explains that, over the past two decades,  the shift towards justifying knowledge in economic or scientific terms, especially in the United States. He talks about the value of interpretation and judgement, and how he is concerned that students are losing the ability to do the cognitive heavy lifting of assessing research and determining the gaps in information. Ian's administrative career reflects his efforts to balance these two aspects of knowledge. Ian advises students to use AI as a refinement tool after doing their own cognitive heavy lifting, but he stresses the importance of taking time in nature to write by hand and give the mind time to think.  The Meeting of Medieval and Modern History Ian talks about the difference between his wife's studies in medieval history  to his own. Creative thinking plays a role in the study of medieval history where there are gaps in knowledge and errors of interpretation; this contrasts with Ian's field of study which drew research from  a high level of bureaucracy. He explains why he structured their book, Reinventing Knowledge,  to combat information overload. Ian shares his experience of empowering others in his professional life and giving up the desire to control outcomes. Ian also reflects on the importance of humility and the value of learning a new language to gain a deeper understanding of other cultures. Harvard Reflections Ian mentions Math 25 with Mark McConnell, which taught him rigorous thinking and precision, and he highlights a course on European Political development 1850 to 1950 by Peter Baldwin, which inspired him to become a European historian. Ian states that he  values the bridge between the arts and sciences provided by these courses.

Have you ever let a bad commute ruin a crucial meeting? Or sent a hasty, frustrated reply to a message you misunderstood? In this highly relatable episode, Andy Lopata sits down with Vicky O'Farrell, known as the "Queen of Behaviours," to unpack how the minor inconveniences of our day can hijack our brains, alter our moods, and ultimately sabotage our professional relationships. Andy and Vicky dive deep into the psychology of our daily triggers—from the "limbic" fight-or-flight response of getting cut off in traffic, to the toxic nature of instant-reply culture on WhatsApp and social media. Vicky shares a powerful personal story of how her own traffic-induced bad mood infected an entire construction site, highlighting the contagious nature of our emotions. Together, they explore practical tools to reset your emotional temperature and how pausing to consider another person's perspective can save your most valuable connections. About Our Guest:Vicky O'Farrell is an expert in human behavior and communication, widely known as the "Queen of Behaviours." With 25 years of corporate experience, from charming Sales rep to Boardroom boss, Vicky founded Queen of Behaviours in 2013 after her own behaviour had a tiny impact on her corporate trajectory. Splitting her time between delivering high-level corporate workshops in London and helping run her husband's construction business, Vicky has a unique, boots-on-the-ground understanding of how to adapt communication styles, read the room, and manage emotional energy across vastly different workplace cultures. What we discussed in this episode: The Traffic Jam Trigger: Why getting cut off in traffic immediately triggers our "chimp" limbic system, and how the stories we tell ourselves about why the other person did it dictate our mood for the rest of the day. The PAUSE Model: Vicky introduces the concept of PAUSE—starting with "P" for Perspective—and how assuming a positive intent (e.g., they are rushing to the hospital) can instantly lower your dangerous cortisol levels. Code-Switching and Authenticity: How to adapt your communication style and energy when moving between entirely different environments (like a corporate boardroom vs. a construction site) without losing your authentic self. The 0 to 10 Energy Scale: Why striving to be a "10 out of 10" every day is actually a mistake, and why finding your grounded "5" is often the best way to match your audience's emotional needs. The Doorway Reset: Practical tools—like curating a specific Spotify playlist, checking your "mirror," and Box Breathing (4 in, 4 hold, 4 out)—to reset your mood before you walk into a room. Resources Mentioned in this Episode: Paul McGee's Book: S.U.M.O (Shut Up, Move On)  Breathing Technique: Box Breathing (Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, exhale for 4 seconds).

The changing of eras continues to intensely unfold. There is a false belief or narrative that's getting in the way of you seeing all of the options on offer. You need to interrupt that belief because it's holding you back.

Ecclesiastes 8:1-17 teaches that wisdom is not God giving us paint-by-numbers answers for every decision, but shaping us into people who can navigate life's complexities with godly judgment. Solomon shows that wisdom helps us deal with power, timing, authority, and the consequences of our choices. Rather than turning us into robots, biblical wisdom provides guardrails that help us make faithful decisions in situations where there is no simple chapter-and-verse answer. Solomon also confronts the realities of injustice, mystery, and tension. Wicked people often seem to prosper while good people suffer, yet wisdom calls us to fear God and trust that His justice will come in His perfect time. Life is filled with unanswered questions and unsatisfying answers, requiring us to walk by faith rather than sight. The wise person learns to hold both sorrow and joy together, lamenting the brokenness of the world while still enjoying God's gifts, knowing that faithfulness means trusting God even when life does not make sense.

In this episode, we sit down with Kristen Nagle: former NICU nurse turned whistleblower and founder of Reclaiming Birth. Her story is the arc of a system insider who couldn't unsee what she was a part of — a hospital culture that worships intervention, a profession that pathologizes the female body, and a machine that punishes the nurses who name it. We trace her hero's journey from the injections she administered that she now warns against, through public termination and media smears, to a betrayal letter from inside her own family. We explore the pivot from fighting freedom to creating it, the home birth that rewrote her relationship to her body, and a vulnerable, never-before-shared reckoning with her role in routine circumcision. The foundation of the world begins in the womb — and every act of self-trust flows from whether we claimed that moment or handed it away.(00:00) Slandered in the Media(00:32) Opening Conversation(01:42) Meet Kristen(02:42) Motherhood Sparks Awakening(06:44) Seeing Vaccine Harm in NICU(16:01) COVID Hospital Restrictions(20:39) Betrayal Becomes Calling(31:33) Reclaiming Birth at Home(37:31) How Hospitals Took Over(42:15) Peace Begins At Birth(45:34) Fathers In The Birth Space(52:47) Fear Culture Around Babies(56:11) Canada Vs US on Freedom(58:32) Reclaiming Birth Conference (Why In-Person Matters)(01:06:49) Circumcision (A Nurse's Perspective)(01:20:27) Reclaiming Birth EvolutionGuest LinksReclaiming Birth Conference [Discount code: HFTT15]WebsiteConnect with UsStart the Free 7-Day Self-Esteem ResetWatch Our EpisodesJoin our free Telegram communityJoin our membership Friends of the Truth

A dead local meetup group attracted just 5 people to its first gathering at a brewery. Two years later, that same group draws 70+ attendees to structured educational sessions, with newcomers driving across multiple states to participate. The transformation reveals something most personal finance education gets fundamentally wrong. Introduction and St. Louis Group Overview [00:00:00] Jonathan and Brad welcome Kristen Knapp and Allen Hansen to discuss how the St. Louis ChooseFI group became one of the most thriving communities in the country. Rebooting a Dormant Community [00:08:30] Kristen shares how she transformed a dormant St. Louis group after attending Camp FI, starting with brewery meetups and evolving to structured case studies that dramatically increased engagement. The Genesis of FI 101 [00:15:45] The hosts discuss how new members needed basic FI education, leading to the creation of a structured FI 101 program that attracted 70+ attendees and continues to grow. Kristen's Journey to Part-Time Work [00:22:10] Kristen shares her 30-year broadcast meteorology career and how the FI community gave her the confidence to negotiate a part-time arrangement, creating space for her FI Friends Travel venture. Allen's Perspective on Giving Back [00:31:20] Allen discusses his motivation to help others after reaching FI himself, emphasizing that anyone can make mistakes and still succeed on the path to financial independence. Structuring FI 101 Content [00:38:00] The group breaks down the essential components of FI 101: defining financial independence, the shockingly simple math of early retirement, and the financial order of operations. The Importance of Your Why [00:45:30] Jonathan proposes that understanding your personal why for FI should be the foundation of any FI 101 program, making it more compelling than traditional personal finance education. Investment Fees and Opportunity Cost [00:52:15] Brad delivers a detailed breakdown of how investment fees can cost millions over a lifetime, using concrete examples to illustrate the importance of low-cost index funds like VTI. Action Items and Next Steps [01:05:40] Allen outlines the two critical action items for FI 101 attendees: tracking net worth and monitoring spending, while the group discusses cadence for ongoing educational sessions. Preview of FI 201 and Future Plans [01:12:00] The hosts wrap up by discussing plans for a second episode covering FI 201 content and how local groups can iterate and improve their educational programming. Notable Quotes "I created what I wished existed. Nobody else is going to do it. Why not me?" — Kristen Knapp "After fifteen years of marriage, we finally hit broke. I think that resonates with people. We did it all wrong with credit card debt, you name it." — Allen Hansen "You can't save your way to FI. It's just almost impossible. You have to invest those dollars." — Allen Hansen "FI is not this passive endeavor and FI is not just about the nuts and bolts of money. This is about a constantly evolving mental framework." — Brad Barrett "Being around other people on the same path is one hundred percent the reason I've been able to create this life, because I would have never even had the idea or the courage to do any of this." — Kristen Knapp Key Takeaways Your savings rate matters more than your income. Someone earning $50,000 and saving 50% will reach FI faster than someone earning $150,000 but saving only 10%. Investment fees compound negatively. A 1% advisor fee plus 1% fund fees can reduce a potential $7.2 million portfolio to just $3.9 million over 40 years. Your FI number is calculated by multiplying annual expenses by 25, based on the 4% safe withdrawal rule. Understanding your personal "why" for pursuing FI is more compelling than traditional budgeting advice and provides the motivation needed for long-term success. Community makes the difference. Local FI groups provide accountability, education, and the courage to make life-changing decis…

This lecture was delivered on May 18th 2026by Rev. Renaldo McKenzie at Jamaica Theological Seminary to students in the Caribbean Thought course. Today we explored the concept of Afrocentricity and developing an Afrocentric Paradigm to the study of the Caribbean or o Caribbean Thought. Towards the end we reviewed the Course Outline.Notes:_________________I. Why This Inquiry MattersBefore we define these concepts, we must recognize one important point:Perspective shapes thought.The way we are taught to see the world determines how we understand history, religion, race, culture, and even ourselves. Caribbean societies emerged out of colonization, slavery, displacement, and resistance. Therefore, many of the ideas we inherit about civilization, morality, religion, and identity are rooted within colonial structures.The Caribbean person often lives within competing worlds:• African heritage, • European institutions, • Christian theology, • colonial education, • and postcolonial realities. Thus, Caribbean Thought requires critical examination of the foundations of knowledge itself.________________II. Defining Key Terms1. AfrocentricityAccording to Molefi Kete Asante and Ama Mazama, Afrocentricity is a way of seeing and interpreting the world from the perspective of African people as subjects rather than objects of history.Afrocentricity seeks to:• center African agency, • restore African humanity, • reclaim African history, • and cultivate what Dr. Mazama calls a “consciousness of victory” rather than perpetual oppression. Afrocentricity does not necessarily reject other cultures. Rather, it insists that African people have the right to define themselves and interpret reality from their own historical and cultural experiences.In simple terms:Afrocentricity asks: What happens when African people become the center of their own narratives instead of existing only through European interpretations?ConclusionToday's lecture introduced the conceptual foundations for our study of Caribbean Thought.We examined:• Afrocentricity, • Afrocentrism, • Eurocentrism, • ethnocentrism, • colonialism, • and the Afrocentric Paradigm. We also explored how colonial consciousness continues to shape Caribbean identity, religion, culture, and historical understanding.Next week, we will move into African civilizations and early African contributions to world history as we continue developing an African-centered understanding of Caribbean identity and consciousness.Bibliography / Source ListMolefi Kete Asante.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this episode of Paige's Perspective, Paige breaks down the phrase “Hang in there… it gets worse” and the surprisingly deep conversation it created during a recent Reclaiming You call.Some people viewed the phrase as a reminder that life will always have challenges and that healing is less about avoiding pain and more about learning how to handle life differently. Others saw it as a warning that if nothing changes, things often do get worse over time. And for some, the phrase no longer resonated at all because while life is still hard sometimes, they've grown enough that it no longer affects them the same way it once did.This episode explores resilience, accountability, growth, discomfort, avoidance, and what it really means to become more capable as life continues to happen around us.Because maybe peace isn't about life becoming perfect.Maybe it's about becoming someone who can handle imperfect things differently.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Program: www.reclaiming-you.comSoberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here

How can we approach aging with more joy, empathy, and meaningful connection?We often talk about lifespan, or how long we live, but Kerry Burnight believes the more important question is how fully we live along the way.Burnight is a gerontologist, former professor of geriatric medicine, and author of Joyspan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life's Second Half. Drawing from decades of experience working with older adults, she discusses why adopting a “growth aging mindset” can change the way we think about getting older, and why autonomy matters just as much as safety in conversations with aging loved ones. As she puts it, “it's not just the big moments, it's the little moments, too.”In this Quick Thinks episode of Think Fast Talk Smart, Burnight and host Matt Abrahams explore the role of listening, storytelling, and empathy in effective communication across generations. Through memorable examples and actionable advice, Burnight offers a compassionate framework for talking about — and thinking about — aging differently.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Kerry BurnightKerry's Book: JoyspanEp.176 From Stereotypes to Synergy: Communicating Across Generations Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:53) - Aging Mindsets (05:21) - Give of the Day (08:49) - Difficult Aging Conversations (19:21) - Explaining Complex Ideas (20:50) - Conclusion  ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

(00:00) — Ear cleaning origin: A childhood earwax ritual lights the first spark for medicine.(01:25) — Writer first, then premed: Entering college for writing before finding patient care through EMT work.(02:10) — EMT on campus: Deescalation, student calls, and heavy mental health moments.(03:27) — Suicide hotline: Human-to-human conversations that clarified her desire to be a physician.(04:10) — Medicine vs therapy: Drawn to anatomy and physiology while honoring psych's importance.(05:45) — Apocalypse-proof skills: Why medicine felt enduring through pandemics, borders, and war.(07:32) — Query-letter essay: How a creative application and workshop hustle shaped her identity.(08:55) — Premed pressure: Cutting hobbies, feeling locked out of creativity, and the regret that followed.(11:31) — The rat race and AMCAS: Hours, comparison culture, and resisting the 15-activity myth.(15:04) — Rest as training: Reframing hobbies as recovery to prevent burnout and learn better.(15:59) — What stood out: Interviews focused on her writing more than her activity count.(18:19) — Reapplying after COVID: Canceled MCAT, delayed app, and an external nudge to pause.(20:01) — Perspective shift: Time off, returning to writing, and no longer feeling behind.(23:11) — Ready the second time: Growth, humility, and being prepared to start medicine.(24:42) — First acceptance: Relief, joy, and finally buying the book she'd saved for that day.(26:02) — Personal statement redo: From listing achievements to writing about who she is.(27:06) — Med school + novels: Supportive team, deadlines, and writing as catharsis.(28:43) — Step 2 vs deadlines: Balancing dedicated study with book edits on a tight schedule.(30:10) — Dark fiction and stakes: Embracing perimortem themes and high-impact care.(32:24) — Pathology curiosity: Autopsies, TV inspirations, and creative crossover.(33:09) — Can students work?: Policy gray areas and being featured regardless.(33:47) — Zero-sum myth: Why gym, games, and hobbies can make you a better learner.(36:24) — Guilt and games: Mario Kart, streaming, and naming the pressure to always study.(37:13) — Permission to be human: Keep your passions—people, not checklists, become doctors.Vanessa's path to medicine started with a childhood ear-cleaning ritual and grew through college EMT shifts and suicide hotline work that centered real human connection. In this conversation, she and Dr. Gray unpack the premed rat race—the pressure to pack 15 activities, the guilt of cutting hobbies, and the lie that every minute not studying sets you back. Vanessa candidly shares applying twice, including a COVID-canceled MCAT that delayed her first cycle, the external nudge to pause, and the growth and humility that made her ultimately ready to be accepted. She explains how interviews gravitated to her writing, why her second personal statement focused on who she is rather than everything she did, and how she now balances med school with novel deadlines—treating writing as both catharsis and a job, while preparing for Step 2. Along the way: apocalypse-proof humor, a reframe of rest as part of training, and a clear message to premeds and medical students alike—keep the passions that make you human. Because people, not checklists, become doctors.What You'll Learn:- How campus EMT and suicide hotline roles shaped a patient-first “why medicine”- What changed between a late, COVID-impacted first cycle and a successful reapplication- Why focusing your personal statement on who you are can resonate more than listing activities- Practical ways to protect hobbies in premed and med school without burning out- How interviews may lean into your authentic passions—even more than your hours

May is Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month. It is believed that 1 in 5 new moms experience some level of perinatal mood or anxiety disorder. And when a new mom experiences postpartum anxiety or depression, her partner is 50% more likely to also experience anxiety or depression. In today's episode, we've invited three fathers to share their perspective on the postpartum journey. Mike Vasquez and Todd Kennedy are married to women who courageously shared their postpartum experiences in episodes 31 and 32. Alex Grant and his wife are former clients of Allison. In this episode, Allison asks Mike, Todd, and Alex to reflect on their own transition to parenthood and what it was like to support a partner navigating postpartum anxiety or depression. Together, they share honest insights about recognizing when something was not quite right, managing their own emotions during a stressful season, and learning how to show up as steady, supportive partners. Their stories highlight the importance of communication, support systems, and compassion for both parents during the postpartum period. This episode offers a powerful reminder that postpartum mental health affects the entire family and that partners play a critical role in recovery and healing. Listen in to learn: Why postpartum mental health challenges affect the whole family, not just the mother How partners often recognize early signs of postpartum anxiety or depression The emotional impact of supporting a struggling spouse after a new baby arrives Practical ways partners can provide meaningful support during the postpartum period Why open communication and a strong support system are essential for new families We have eleven episodes dedicated to the important topic of maternal mental health.

In Episode 133 of High Performance Parenting, Greg Francis sits down with daughter Crissy to talk about one of the most overlooked parts of youth sports:

A full life isn't about the quantity of time, but the quality.Our lifespan might describe how long we live, but it doesn't say anything about how well we live. For that, Kerry Burnight says, we need a different measure: joyspan.Burnight is a gerontologist, former professor of geriatric medicine, and author of Joyspan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life's Second Half. In her decades working with older adults, she noticed a gap: “I would have a lot of people who lived long lives and were in pretty darn good physical health. They were miserable.” That observation led her to dig into the research on well-being — and to find what it takes to enjoy a long life, not just endure one.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Burnight joins host Matt Abrahams to explore her joyspan framework, explaining how growth, connection, adapting, and giving contribute to a full life. From changing the conversation around aging to communicating more effectively across generations, Burnight offers practical wisdom for living better at any age.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Kerry BurnightKerry's Book: JoyspanEp.176 From Stereotypes to Synergy: Communicating Across Generations Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (03:21) - Defining Joyspan (05:28) - The Joyspan Matrix (11:04) - Learning to Adjust (11:58) - The Power of Stories (15:39) - Internalized Ageism (18:41) - The Final Three Questions (26:00) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

What does bowling have to do with spiritual life?In this teaching on Psalm 19, John Ortberg explores anxiety, surrender, creation, grace, and the deep human longing for soul rest.Using a surprisingly powerful bowling illustration, John reflects on how most people continue trying to control outcomes long after the “ball” has already left their hands. Psalm 19 offers another way: let go, trust God, delight in creation, and allow your soul to rest.This episode explores:- Why modern people struggle with rest- The connection between anxiety and control- Creation as medicine for the soul- Why the law of God is actually a gift- Soul fragmentation and divided living- How love restores wholenessFeaturing reflections on:- Dallas Willard- Theodore Roosevelt- Martin Luther- Psalm 19Scriptures:-Psalm 19-Matthew 22:37–39-James 2:8#Psalm19 #JohnOrtberg #Prayer #DallasWillard #SoulRest #Anxiety #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #Psalms
