Du leistest Unmenschliches. Du postest brav deinen Content, schraubst an deiner Strategie, kaufst den nächsten Kurs und gibst täglich 100 %. Und trotzdem steht dein Konto auf der Stelle oder dümpelt festgefahren auf demselben Plateau – egal, ob du von 50k auf 100k oder von der halben Million zur Million skalieren willst. Hier ist die ungemütliche Wahrheit: Es liegt nicht an deinem Funnel, deinem Podcast oder deinem Angebot. Es sind unsichtbare Mächte, die im Hintergrund die Fäden ziehen und dein Wachstum eiskalt boykottieren. In dieser Folge lege ich die Ergebnisse aus der Zusammenarbeit mit über 2.000 Unternehmerinnen offen. Ich entlarve die 5 größten unsichtbaren Saboteure, die verhindern, dass du die unangefochtene Ikone deiner Nische wirst. Wir sprechen darüber, warum dein perfekter Feed dich in Wahrheit unsichtbar macht, wie sich vererbte Geldglaubenssätze als kaputte Waschmaschinen tarnen und warum ausgerechnet dein Partner oder deine besten Freunde deine gefährlichste Wachstumsbremse sind. Wenn du es satt hast, als austauschbarer „Vanilla-Coach“ im Feed überrollt zu werden, dann ist diese Folge dein persönlicher Befreiungsschlag! In der heutigen Folge erfährst du: - Der Vanilla-Effekt: Warum du im Feed aussiehst wie jede andere Coachin da draußen – du gibst dir Mühe, postest täglich, und trotzdem scrollen die Leute weiter, als wärst du unsichtbar. - Die Verkaufs-Blockade: Warum du dich beim Verkaufen komisch, übergriffig oder schleimig fühlst, egal wie du es anstellst, und woher dieser innere Widerstand wirklich kommt. - Die Todeszone im Content: Warum ausgerechnet deine besten Freunde, dein Partner und deine Familie dein Business bremsen – nicht die Fremden im Internet oder deine Konkurrenz. - Geerbtes Money-Mindset: Wie unbewusste Sätze aus deinem Elternhaus dich genau in dem Moment boykottieren, in dem endlich mehr Geld auf dein Konto fließen will. - Die Meisterdisziplin: Wie du trotz der lauten inneren Zweifel-Stimme („Das funktioniert nicht für mich!“) stur durchziehst, dokumentierst statt inszenierst und deinen Durchbruch erzwingst. Hör auf, dich in Analyse-Paralyse zu verlieren oder anderen Coaches hinterher zu eifern. Triff heute eine Entscheidung, schalte den Lärm stumm und baue dir ein unkopierbares Millionenbusiness nach deinen eigenen Regeln auf!

Subscribe at thecyclingpodcast.comThe fifth instalment of our wall-to-wall, behind-the-scenes look at Paul Seixas's début Tour de France begins where Seixas's love affair with cycling and the Tour also started, in Magland, just a few kilometres from the stage 15 finish on the Plateau de Solaison. It was indeed an intense and emotional few days for the 19-year-old, as Daniel Friebe reports in this episode. As always, we hear from team-mates, coaches and opponents, as Seixas underlines his credentials as the man most likely to end Tadej Pogačar's reign. Of course no one is any closer to knowing when that will be, or indeed how Pogačar will fall or abdicate.

On this solo episode, Stacey argues that business plateaus are usually not caused by poor strategy but by an "identity ceiling"—subconscious beliefs about what level of success a person deserves or is capable of achieving.Key takeaways:-The market will pay what you hold.-Strategy is never going to break through an identity ceiling.-The plateau is not a strategy problem. It's an identity problem.Tweetable Quotes:"The plateau is the gap between your identity that built the current level and the identity required to run the next one." -Stacey O'Byrne"The market will pay what you hold. The programming decides what you can hold, and until the programming updates, the pricing ceiling holds with it." -Stacey O'Byrne"The current level identity protects current level resources. The next level identity invests in next level outcomes. Same decision, completely different frame, which creates completely different results." -Stacey O'ByrneResources:Instagram: @pivotpointadvantageSchedule a 15 minute call with Stacey: http://pivotpointadvantage.com/talktostaceyIf you're ready to take yourself and your business to the next level and are interested in a coaching program that will get you there check out: http://pivotpointadvantage.com/iwantsuccessJoin an interactive environment to help you build the success you've always wanted with other like-minded, success-driven entrepreneurs, business owners, and sales professionals: https://facebook.com/groups/sellwithoutselling

El Tour afronta su segunda y última jornada de descanso con Tadej Pogačar vestido de amarillo y cinco minutos de ventaja, pero con el podio completamente abierto tras el abandono de Jonas Vingegaard. Remco Evenepoel llega reforzado por su victoria en Plateau de Solaison y defiende la segunda posición ante Isaac del Toro, Paul Seixas, Florian Lipowitz y Juan Ayuso: cinco corredores separados por menos de dos minutos y medio. En este episodio analizamos con Marc Pons (Movistar) y Miguel Ángel Rodríguez (MARCA) el terremoto que ha provocado la caída de Vingegaard, la superioridad de Pogačar y todas las batallas que quedan abiertas antes de la última semana. Una semana que comienza este martes con una decisiva contrarreloj de 26,1 kilómetros y 500 metros de desnivel entre Évian-les-Bains y Thonon-les-Bains, antes de Orcières-Merlette y de dos llegadas consecutivas a Alpe d'Huez. El amarillo parece encaminado, pero el resto del Tour está a punto de explotar.

They also speculate how the GC will play out with the battle for the podium wide open, how far Evenepoel can go, the news that Vingegaard and Pogačar were woken up in the middle of the night for drug testing, preview Tuesday's critical time trial, take listener calls, and answer yesterday's Ventum trivia before giving out a new question.

Stage 15 of the 2026 Tour de France was another huge day in the mountains, taking the riders 183.9km from Champagnole to Plateau de Solaison with 3,950 metres of climbing. A blockbuster route produced another elite breakaway featuring Ben Healy, Tom Pidcock, Quinn Simmons, Richard Carapaz and, unusually, Adam Yates, who was sent up the road as a satellite rider for Isaac Del Toro. But none of that would become the biggest story of the day. Jonas Vingegaard crashed out of the Tour de France, bringing an abrupt end to one of cycling's greatest rivalries. His withdrawal transforms the fight for the podium, but it also raises fascinating questions about Tadej Pogačar. With his biggest rival no longer in the race, did Pogačar choonot to launch the kind of devastating attack many were expecting? Is that the greatest mark of respect he can give? And could this have been the final Tour de France of one of the defining riders of his generation? Despite the strength of the breakaway, UAE once again brought the race back together. With Del Toro and Pogačar driving the chase, the yellow jersey even sacrificed his own chances to try and deliver a stage victory for his teammate. In the end, it wasn't enough. Remco Evenepoel outsprinted Del Toro and Pogačar to take the stage, leaving us asking another question: have we ever seen the rider in yellow work so selflessly to try and win a stage for a teammate? Elsewhere, Jasper Philipsen reignited the battle for the green jersey by taking maximum points at the intermediate sprint, meaning the battle for green could go all the way. Bed Boulting and David Millar break down Stage 15 of the Tour de France.

A wild one from the mountains — Carapaz nearly stole the stage before Vingegaard, of all people, paced Pogačar back into contention. Alex and Max break down a genuinely funny piece of race tactics, a big GC shakeup, and one more sad Charmig update before previewing a brand new climb for Stage 15.In this episode:How Vingegaard's high-pace gamble backfired and gifted Pogačar and Del Toro a one-twoDecathlon's surprise move to burn UAE's domestiques mid-stageRemco's rescue mission for Lipowitz and Ayuso, and what it means for the podium battleParet-Peintre and Carapaz emerging as the real threats in the mountains classificationCharmig's heartbreaking time-cut elimination, and another Alpecin withdrawalThe ongoing "old Green Edge energy" storyline after Jayco's win, and more fuel for the Aussie team pitchMerch envy — why isn't there a Vice Struffer or Uno-X t-shirt stand at every stage?Listener voice notes continue, plus a proposed Alpe d'Huez shoey on Dutch CornerStage 15 preview: a brand new HC summit finish at Plateau de SolaisonTonight's prize: a Pillar Performance starter pack up for grabs

La seconda settimana del Tour de France 2026 si chiude con una tappa molto dura, il cui bilancio è pesante per varie ragioni. La prima notizia riguarda Jonas Vingegaard, costretto al ritiro dopo una brutta caduta. Il danese esce mestamente di scena dopo aver messo i suoi alla frusta e questo sembra un via libera per Tadej Pogačar che, salendo verso Plateau de Solaison, fa da gregario per Isaac Del Toro. E della situazione ne approfitta Remco Evenepoel che, rimasto sulla ruota dei due corridori UAE Team Emirates - XRG, li beffa in volata. Di questo e altro parliamo nell'episodio di SpazioTalk, con Davide Filippi e Davide Terraneo.

Als eine der härtesten Etappen steht der Weg nach Le Markstein Fellering auf dem Rennkalender der Tour de France. Vier Anstiege, drei der ersten Kategorie – ein Kampf vorwiegend für die Fahrer um das Gesamtklassement. Am Ende siegt Tadej Pogačar. Remco Evenepoel und Florian Lipowitz verlieren etwas Zeit auf das Podium. „Es war eine harte Etappe und die beiden haben super gekämpft“, meint Teammanager Ralph Denk. „Wir sind voll auf Kurs, denn wir sprechen heute nur von Sekunden.“ Am Ende geht Denk jedoch von Minutenabständen aus. Im Hintergrund spricht Ralph Denk über den Neuzugang Remco Evenepoel. Was ist der Belgier für ein Typ? Wie bringt er sich im Team ein und was sind die Pläne mit dem Ausnahmefahrer für die Zukunft? Keine Ruhe gibt es bei der 15. Etappe. Wieder müssen 4000 Höhenmeter gemeistert werden, inklusive Schlussanstieg auf das Plateau de Solaison. „Es wird enorm hart vor dem Ruhetag. Ich hoffe, unsere Jungs fühlen sich gut“, meint Denk. Foto: Imago/Belga

Ep 122: Another Ask Me Anything episode! This week I'm answering your questions on fat loss, strength training, workout classes, fitness trackers, core strength, and how to know when it's actually time to make a change to your routine.We're talking about what I would prioritize if you want to lose 5–10 pounds without obsessively tracking calories, how long you should actually rest between sets if strength is the goal, and whether I trust the calorie burn and step count metrics coming from wearables like the Oura Ring/Apple Watch.I also get into the very common feeling of knowing you have muscle... but not necessarily being able to see it the way you want to — and whether that means you should keep building or finally shift your focus toward fat loss.Plus, we talk about workout classes: why I don't think they're inherently bad, where people can run into problems when classes become their entire training routine, and how to keep the workouts you genuinely love while still making progress toward your physique goals.And finally, I answer a question about weak back muscles, posture, core strength, and whether you really need hour-long Pilates sessions to feel strong and supported in your everyday life and strength workouts.As always, if you have a question you want answered on a future AMA episode, send me a DM on Instagram @chelseyrosehealth!__________________________________________________________________________________________________Apply for Advanced Training and Nutrition with Chelsey & Dr Emily Dow HEREStart your 7 day FREE trial of my new app HERE!Programs:8 Week Summer Prep Planhttps://www.trainerize.me/profile/chelseyrosehealth/?planGUID=d48c6fbf116c4e8fb4d31f94b5376fa3Want to work one on one with Chelsey?Set up a one on one consultation call here to see if personalized online training is right for you.Join a semi-private class in LA here.Email info@chelseyrosehealth.com to inquire about one on one in person training.Shop the things i'm loving HEREFollow Chelsey on Instagram:@Chelseyrosehealth@StrengthtobuildFollow Chelsey on TikTok Here."Submit a question to the show"

What separates people who master a skill from those who quit? It's not IQ, talent, or how much they already know—it's what they do when they don't know the answer. In this episode, I explain why problem-solving is the true measure of intelligence and how learning to overcome obstacles can accelerate your growth in business, creativity, sports, school, and life.If you've ever felt stuck learning a new skill, hit a frustrating plateau, or wondered why some people continue improving while others give up, this episode breaks down the mindset and strategies that help experts keep moving forward. We'll discuss why most people quit too early, how masters anticipate setbacks, and practical ways to become a better learner for the rest of your life.Topics Covered: • Why intelligence isn't the same as problem-solving • The hidden reason most people quit after early success • What happens when you hit your first learning plateau • Why dabblers never become masters • The three types of learners you'll encounter • How experts solve problems they don't understand • The fastest ways to break through learning roadblocks • Why mentors, books, and courses accelerate growth • How to stop feeling intimidated by smarter people • Why curiosity matters more than knowing everything • How to identify your best learning style • The mindset that turns obstacles into opportunities

Have you really hit a weight loss plateau, or is inconsistency quietly getting in the way of your progress? On today's episode, I'm breaking down one of the biggest mistakes I see women make when they think they've hit a weight loss plateau. The truth is, sometimes your body has adapted and your plan needs to change. Other times, you're not actually in a plateau at all… you're just stuck. By the end of this episode, you'll learn how to tell the difference, the subtle ways inconsistency can sneak into your nutrition and workouts without you realizing it, and what your progress (or lack of) on the scale is actually trying to tell you. If you've been feeling frustrated because the scale hasn't been moving, this episode will help you figure out what's really going on and what to do next.

In Luke 6:20-31 Our Savior speaks both 4 blessings and 4 woes.This message is the ethical teaching our Lord to His disciples. It is applicable to us today as well. First, Dr. Mitchell takes us through the 4 blessings which were aimed at His disciples. He then take up the 4 woes which were aimed at His enemies.Each of the blessings and the woes address the same topics. The blessings are then reversed in the woes. It is noted, that the fathers of these enemies did the same things to God's prophets as they are doing to Jesus' disciples.Our Lord also gives us the believer's motive, expectation and response to one's enemies found in verse 31 in the golden rule.With the blessing of hearing the Word of God, here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Lk 6:20.

Cathy Mazak just had the biggest launch of her career — $96,000 in two weeks, with 75 students enrolled. But until then, she had been stuck. Same email list. Same launches. Same program. The same 20-to-25 enrollments every time. Whatever you sell, if you've ever felt that flatline-launch frustration where the math just won't math, this episode is for you. In this conversation, Cathy walks Claire through exactly what she changed — the offer restructure (she changed the length of her program), the pricing experiment), the lead gen play that worked, and the mindset shift she now says was the real unlock. Cathy has been a Get Paid Marketing client for years, and Claire had a front-row seat to this entire turnaround. This Week on the Get Paid Podcast: How Cathy went from enrolling 25 students per launch to 75 in a single round — with the same audience and the same program The 3-tier pricing strategy she rolled out — including the re-enrollment price that brought back her highest-paying alumni Why Cathy ran THREE separate info sessions for one launch (one for each segment of her audience) The free workshop that did the heavy lifting on lead gen — and exactly how she used ads to fill it The mindset shift that snapped her out of "woe is me" thinking and into "what do I actually have to do?" The exact sentence Cathy said to herself one morning that changed how she ran the entire launch About Cathy Mazak: Cathy Mazak is the founder of Scholar's Voice, where she helps university professors publish their backlog of academic papers through her signature program, Navigate. Before going full-time in her business, Cathy was a tenured full professor at the University of Puerto Rico for 15 years.

On November 22, 1971, RAF rescuers spot a young woman crawling across the Cairngorm Plateau after two nights in a relentless blizzard. With only a few words, she points them toward a group still missing somewhere in the white. What they were about to uncover would become one of the deadliest mountaineering disasters in British history. In this episode, we break down the deceptive terrain of the Cairngorms, the controversial shelter that changed decision-making on the mountain, and how a school trip of inexperienced teenagers and young leaders found themselves fighting for survival in a featureless whiteout. A story of small decisions, worsening conditions—and how close help really was. 00:00 Blizzard Rescue Begins 02:00 Meet the Cairngorms 03:16 Plateau Hazards Explained 05:13 Shelters and Controversy 09:04 The School Expedition Plan 12:01 Groups Split in Worsening Weather 13:45 Beatty Reaches the Shelter 14:10 Davidson's Navigation Gamble 17:02 Bivouac Turns Deadly 19:45 Flares in the Storm 21:21 Catherine Crawls for Help 22:59 Search Mobilizes and Helicopter Finds Her 28:33 Digging Them O= 31:18 Aftermath and Inquiry 35:12 Legacy and Final Reflection Reference List Buried: The Cairngorm Plateau Disaster — The Crux Podcast Primary Sources & Official Records Fatal Accident Inquiry into the Cairngorm Plateau Disaster.

In this episode of Eat More Carbs, Lilly, Reilly and Jenna  dive into one of the most frustrating and confusing phases of the hormonal healing journey: Why Eating "More" Isn't Enough: Solving the Period Recovery Plateau. This episode is specifically for the female athlete who has checked all the traditional boxes and feels like you are doing everything right in the recovery journey. You've increased your energy intake, you've started taking recovery days, and you are eating what feels like it should be enough, yet your menstrual cycle remains completely missing. As dietitians, we are talking about why eating more is sometimes only the first step, and what it actually takes to signal true physiological safety to your brain.Together, we break down the hidden variables that contribute to a persistent functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) plateau. We explore why the timing of your meals matters just as much as your total daily energy availability. Discussing the difference between simply eating a high volume of food and truly resolving low energy availability (LEA) at a cellular level, highlighting the sneaky ways athletes accidentally backslide into energy deficits throughout their day.Our goal for this episode is to give you a definitive troubleshooting checklist to help you break through your recovery stall and finally get your period back. We move past the generic "just eat more" advice to deliver advanced, evidence based sports nutrition strategies that address metabolic adaptation, and energy distribution. Tune in to find out exactly what your body is trying to tell you during a plateau, and learn how to make the subtle but powerful shifts necessary to restore your period.The Eat More Carbs Podcast is the go-to podcast for the GIRLIES who want to fuel their body properly with easy, fun, and simple nutrition!

There's a version of stagnation that's hard to see coming because it doesn't look like failure. You're not getting worse results. Your clients aren't unhappy. You're not regressing. You've just stopped growing — and you've been there long enough that it's started to feel normal. That's the good coach plateau, and in Episode 6 of the Smarter Strength Podcast, Dr. David Skolnik breaks down how to identify it and what to do about it this week.Big THANK YOU to our sponsors:- CoachRX - Hands down, the best platform for coaches.

And at some point, comfort starts to feel a lot like being stuck. Not because you're lazy — but because you've become so good at the things you do often that you've quietly started avoiding the things you don't. THE SOLUTION: REFLECT ON WHERE YOU'VE BEEN DEFLECTINGBefore any action, there has to be honest reflection. Three questions to sit with: What types of clients have you been avoiding or turning away, even when referrals come in? What conversations with your current clients have you been sidestepping — lifestyle, nutrition, goal misalignment? What types of goals are clients asking for help with that you've been deflecting because you don't feel fully competent or confident?THE ACTION: BUILD YOUR OWN MINI MASTERCLASS WITH AIWe're in an extraordinary moment for coaches who want to learn. AI tools can synthesize enormous amounts of information quickly — and the best use of that capability isn't outsourcing your coaching or communication. It's accelerating your own education.David's action this week: identify one area of deflection, then use AI to design a personalized mini masterclass on that specific topic. A prompting guide to help you build this is linked in the show notes below.(David's current favorite AI for this: Claude.)AI PROMPTING GUIDE — BUILD YOUR MINI MASTERCLASSUse the following prompt template with your preferred AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, etc.):"I am a fitness coach / personal trainer / [your role]. I have been avoiding [specific topic, client type, or conversation type] because I don't feel fully competent or confident. Please design a multi-part mini masterclass for me on this topic, structured as: (1) core concepts I need to understand, (2) common client scenarios and how to handle them, (3) key questions I should be asking clients, (4) how to recognize when to refer out, and (5) the one thing I should try with a real client this week to start building practical confidence."NEXT WEEK — EPISODE 7What to do when a client experiences an injury setback.

Cameron Hörst recently completed the hardest route of his climbing career: Big Bone (5.15a/9a+), a king line out Utah's massive Fynn Cave. What makes his first ascent especially compelling isn't just the grade—it's the journey. Big Bone was a project that demanded years of training, 60+ working goes and redpoint attempts, countless setbacks, and a level of patience few climbers ever develop. In this episode of the Training for Climbing Podcast, Cameron  unpacks the entire process. We dive into the physical, mental, and tactical challenges of working a multi-year project, the breakthroughs that finally moved the needle, and the lessons any climber can apply to their own long-term goals—whether you're projecting 5.10 or 5.15. One of the most fascinating takeaways is that the breakthrough wasn't a sudden gain in finger strength or power. Instead, it came from years of accumulated training adaptations, comprehensive energy system development, improved recovery, refined tactics, and learning when not to climb. Cameron shares how he finally broke through a plateau that had stalled his progress for multiple seasons.
