I don't know about you, but rest can be an elusive thing for me. I know I need it, I know I want it, but how do I actually get it? Enter Lou Perham who is rest-obsessed and has devoted her recent years as a Cyclical Living Mentor to helping people, and especially women get more rest. Today we start by exploring Lou's powerful personal story of the healing power of cycle awareness. When Lou was diagnosed with PCOS - polycystic ovarian syndrome - in her late 20s, she was crushed when her doctors told her that she was unlikely to be able to have children. Having always wanted to be a mother, she responded by trying several holistic healing approaches to heal her heavy, painful periods, eventually committing to a two-year Yoga teacher training which supported the regulation of her hormones, and also included teachings about menstrual cycle awareness. Wonderfully, a year after she started tracking her menstrual cycle she had pain-free bleeds and six months later she was pregnant with her son. This led to her joining Red School's Menstruality Leadership Programme, and since then, she has been applying the healing power of cycle awareness in a new way, using it to craft what she calls a rest-centred life, and guide others to do the same. We explore:Today she shares the ten types of rest we all need, and how to access more of them, including; physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual.  How Lou created her own map of self-care practices based on the inner seasons of her menstrual cycle, and it all started with the vital cycle awareness question; what do I need on this cycle day? How Lou practices cycle awareness and lives the wisdom of her cycle as a single working mother.---Receive our free video training: Love Your Cycle, Discover the Power of Menstrual Cycle Awareness to Revolutionise Your Life - www.redschool.net/love---The Menstruality Podcast is hosted by Red School.

Welcome to another episode of The Proven Entrepreneur Show, where we dive deep into the real stories behind the world's most resilient and innovative business minds. I'm your host, Don Williams—entrepreneur, author, and eternal optimist—and today, I'm thrilled to introduce a guest who embodies the spirit of invention, perseverance, and purpose-driven innovation.Joining us from Vancouver, Canada, is Nicole Donnelly—founder of AI Smart Ventures, a serial entrepreneur, and a passionate advocate for using artificial intelligence to improve lives. But Nicole's story doesn't begin in a boardroom or a tech lab. It begins in a mobile home on a dusty desert road, where a young girl with a wild imagination crafted licorice dispensers and left them in neighbors' mailboxes, believing—wholeheartedly—that she could make their lives better.That same spirit of service and creativity has carried Nicole through decades of entrepreneurship, from selling her first company during the 2008 financial crisis to building AI-powered wellness tools that help women manage perimenopause and hormonal health. In this episode, Nicole opens up about the emotional toll of being sued by her own family, the lessons she learned about hiring and trusting the wrong people, and how she rebuilt her business—and her relationships—one step at a time.We explore the power of automation not just as a tool for efficiency, but as a system of care. Nicole shares how she created “Charlie,” an AI agent trained on women's health data that offers personalized supplement, nutrition, and lifestyle recommendations based on the user's cycle. She explains how AI can be used to automate empathy, scale support, and even remind you when it's time to eat black beans to reduce PMS symptoms.But this episode isn't just about tech—it's about trust, trauma, and transformation. Nicole and I discuss the psychological weight of entrepreneurship, the importance of starting before you're ready, and why testing your idea with real paying customers is more valuable than any business plan. We also talk about the darker side of AI—how it can be misused—and why Nicole would ban its use in human trafficking and exploitation if she could.You'll also hear about tools like StrengthsFinder, Kolbe, and Culture Index, and how Nicole uses them to build stronger, more aligned teams. We touch on the power of mindset, the importance of asking AI first, and how even something as simple as automating your inbox can save you hours each week.Whether you're a founder, a dreamer, or someone navigating the messy middle of building something meaningful, this episode will speak to your heart and your hustle. Nicole's story is a reminder that entrepreneurship isn't just about solving problems—it's about healing, growing, and daring to believe that your ideas can change lives.

What if there is a direct connection between your pleasure and your power? And what if harnessing the magic of inner summer of the menstrual cycle - the ovulation phase - is the key to unleashing a deeply pleasurable, full expression of who you are in the world?We believe that both of these statements are true, but - as we explore in this podcast - a profound reclamation of the true power of inner summer is necessary, in a world which demands us to be in an endlessly productive summer-mode all of the time. As a result of all the societal projections created by hustle and beauty culture, the power of summer is much misunderstood, and many people struggle with it. In this replay of our popular episode from two years ago, we share ideas for how we can free ourselves from the narrow band of experience within which we're told to operate, so that our unique magnetism and authenticity can be fully inhabited.We explore:The shadow-boxing that can take over inner summer when we live in a linear world which neglects our cyclicity.How being with the instinctual aliveness of our animal bodies helps us to unleash and express our power in the inner summer, as well as hold the charge of our Calling in the world.

Welcome back to our special two-part series recorded live at the VRMA Executive Summit in Miami Beach. This gathering brought together some of the sharpest minds and boldest voices in vacation rental management, and we made it our mission to capture real-time insights on what's top of mind for the leaders shaping this space. In Part 2, we continue our hot-take conversations with a new lineup of industry experts, diving into the themes of value-driven travel, AI-powered revenue strategy, and the increasing tension between quality and scale. First up, you'll hear from Peter Albert, CEO of Coastal Vacation Properties, who shares what it's been like rebuilding his business—and his entire community—post-hurricane in Fort Myers Beach. Peter opens up about the realities of traveler expectations today (spoiler: it's all about price), and why vacation planners should be treated like VIPs before they even step through the door. Next, we sit down with Richie Khandelwal, co-founder of PriceLabs, for a high-octane look into the future of dynamic pricing. Richie breaks down what AI means for rate strategy, guest personalization, and the precision of future search—and why your brand's niche might be your most powerful weapon in an AI-first world. Then we're joined by Michelle Williams, General Manager at Atlantic Vacation Homes. Michelle challenges the “growth at all costs” mindset and makes a powerful case for quality over quantity. She also offers a long-view perspective on how guest expectations evolve—and why a well-made bed might matter more than that arcade machine. Finally, Scott Leggat of Inhabit shares wisdom from decades in the field. We discuss guest loyalty, building a sense of local ownership, and why regulation—not competition—may be the industry's biggest threat. If you missed Part 1, go back and hear from Steve Trover (Better Talent), Jacob Mueller (Renjoy), and Michelle Marquis on everything from business travel to PMS data ownership and the future of standardization. Behind the Stays is brought to you by Journey — a first-of-its-kind loyalty program that brings together an alliance of the world's top independently owned and operated stays and allows travelers to earn points and perks on boutique hotels, vacation rentals, treehouses, ski chalets, glamping experiences and so much more. Your host is Zach Busekrus, Head of the Journey Alliance. If you are a hospitality entrepreneur who has a stay, or a collection of stays with soul, we'd love for you to apply to join our Alliance at journey.com/alliance. 

In this episode of Mental Matters, host Asekho Toto dives into the intersection of psychedelics and women's health with an expert who has pioneered a revolutionary approach to mental wellness through cyclical microdosing. The conversation illuminates how traditional mental health treatments have historically overlooked the unique biological rhythms of women, treating them as "little men" rather than acknowledging their distinct physiological needs and patterns.The guest shares profound insights into how women's mental health fluctuates throughout their menstrual cycle, with many experiencing heightened anxiety, depression, and other challenging symptoms particularly in the week before menstruation. This biological reality has significant implications for mental health treatment, yet has only recently begun receiving proper scientific attention. After extensive specialized training in menstrual cycles, Leslie Draffin developed a tailored microdosing protocol that works in harmony with these natural rhythms rather than against them. Throughout the discussion, Asekho demonstrates genuine curiosity about psychedelics and their potential impact on mental health, creating space for an educational conversation that challenges misinformation while acknowledging the importance of accurate resources in this emerging field. The guest emphasizes that while research suggests numerous benefits of psychedelics for mental health, the specific benefits each person experiences are uniquely tailored to their individual needs and circumstances.T he episode explores how this cyclical microdosing approach has already shown promising results in the guest's clients, including decreased period pain, reduced cramps and menstrual migraines, and significant improvements in premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) symptoms. For those suffering from PMDD—described as "PMS on steroids"—this approach offers hope for managing severe anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation that can emerge cyclically. Beyond the practical applications, the conversation touches on deeper themes of self-acceptance and self-compassion. The guest shares a powerful perspective on witnessing oneself in both moments of greatness and struggle, embracing both as worthy aspects of the human experience. This holistic approach to mental wellness acknowledges both the biochemical and psychological dimensions of healing. The episode concludes with information about a free five-day email course offered by the guest, designed to teach listeners exactly how to microdose in alignment with their menstrual cycles for improved mental health. Whether you're personally interested in alternative approaches to women's mental health or simply seeking to understand the evolving landscape of gender-specific wellness practices, this episode offers valuable insights into how honoring our biological rhythms may be key to more effective mental health care.Sponsors and important linksSubscribe to my newsletter: https://mentalmattershostedbyasekhototo.substack.com/Want to be a guest on Mental Matters Hosted By Asekho Toto?

Did you know that 3-8% of women and people with cycles experience PMDD, which stands for premenstrual dysphoric disorder? If you are one of these people, or you are close to or work with someone with PMDD, this episode is especially for you. It's also for you, if you - like me - have experienced intense, debilitating, dark and challenging emotional disturbance in the premenstrual phase of your cycle, often known as PMS or premenstrual syndrome. Today Alexandra and Sjanie explore the inner autumn of the cycle as a gateway to our power. As they share, our premenstrual symptoms aren't a design flaw, but can be better understood as a truth-telling signal or a warning sign from the deepest part of ourselves about all that needs to be healed within us, and all that needs to be healed in our world. Part of the challenge we all face here is that we live in a world that dismisses and denies our cyclical experience, which creates a disconnect with our cyclical wisdom. In other words, what if it's not the menstrual cycle that is the problem, but rather it's a culture that pathologises, shames and denies the power and value of our cycles, and especially the power of the premenstrual phase? We explore:How the premenstrual phase of the cycle gives you feedback about your sensitivity and how to tend to it, so it can be in service to your power - because the world needs your depth of feeling.The emotional spirals that PMDD can evoke, where intense feelings arise, attack becomes your best defense, you lash out at others, and then, a couple of days later, often once your period has arrived, you have to pick up the pieces and negotiate the aftermath of self-hatred and shame.Why we all need to take what we feel in inner autumn more seriously. The premenstrual phase of the cycle is the emotional ‘novocaine' wearing off, a time where you come to your senses, and you have heightened intuition and insight. ---Receive our free video training: Love Your Cycle, Discover the Power of Menstrual Cycle Awareness to Revolutionise Your Life - www.redschool.net/love---The Menstruality Podcast is hosted by Red School.

In this episode, Ashley chats with longtime HA Society member Megan Viggers about what happened when her cycles started to get a little wonky — longer lengths, PMS symptoms, and increased fatigue after exercise.

This episode is a must-listen if you're wondering what to do when recovery isn't linear.

Welcome to a special two-part series of Behind the Stays — recorded live at the VRMA Executive Summit in Miami. I brought my mic to the halls of one of the vacation rental industry's most intimate and influential gatherings — and instead of long-form interviews, I asked a handful of sharp operators and thought leaders three punchy questions: What's a contrarian belief you have about what today's travelers actually want from a vacation rental? What's something happening in the industry that not enough people are talking about — but should be? And finally, what's one travel trend you're bullish on, and one you're a little bearish on? In Part One, you'll hear from Steve Trover — founder of Better Talent and a veteran of the industry with nearly three decades of perspective. Steve drops a spicy take on why guests don't want high-touch hospitality, makes a strong case for why more PMs should be thinking about business travel, and shares his experience with purpose-built homes long before it was cool. In Part Two, I sit down with Jacob Mueller, co-founder of Renjoy — and trust me, if you geek out on tech, systems, or data sovereignty, this one's for you. Jacob breaks down why most property managers are being held hostage by their PMS, how owning your data is the key to unlocking real AI leverage, and what it takes to build tools that actually serve both your owners and your ops teams. And finally — in Part Three — you'll hear from Michelle Marquis. Michelle's worn just about every hat in this space — from property manager to tech exec to connector-in-chief. She offers a clear-eyed take on where standardization is falling short, why guest basics still matter more than we'd like to admit, and what she's seeing when it comes to group travel, pet-friendly stays, and the growing demand for better experiences. These are fast, fun, and unfiltered convos with folks who are deep in the game — and I think you're going to walk away with a few new questions to ask yourself… and maybe even a few answers you didn't see coming. Stay tuned for Part Two of this special series — featuring even more industry voices and insights — dropping Friday, June 13th.

Are you paying $90 for "influencer-approved" collagen or magnesium blends (that cost just cents to make)? In this explosive episode of The Nutrition Couch, dietitians Leanne Ward and Susie Burrell expose the truth behind overpriced wellness supplements — including why some $90 “hot chocolates” and $5-per-serve hydration drinks are nothing more than marketing spin. Then, they unpack new research that’s a game-changer for women’s health: a study just published in The Journal of Nutrition shows that PMS symptoms can be reduced by up to 41% — simply by adding more nuts, seeds, and legumes into your diet. Meanwhile, giving in to PMS sugar cravings might make symptoms 33% worse.

Things are changing rapidly with NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) which has only made NCAA recruiting more competitive in the gymnastics world. Besides NIL, most gymnasts are trying to do NCAA gymnastics to get their education paid for (and if they're smart, they'll pursue a degree that means something and open doors). There are lots of ways to make good money, but getting a good education is a good place to start.A LOT of gymnasts and parents think they have all the time in the world to be in tip top shape for NCAA, but that is just not always the case. We find that a lot of gymnasts who are only 1-2 years out from June 15th are woefully unprepared for a variety of reasons. The biggest?·      A string of injuries tied back to unintentional underfueling that have gotten them off-track their skill/level trajectory.·      Performance that's good but not great (due to fatigue going into training, early fatigue during training, poor recovery, etc)·      Mineral depletion and undetected iron deficiency/recycling issues--- burnout, poor endurance, periods/PMS, etc ·      Not focusing enough on gymnastics—all the big name gymnasts who are making money with NIL were good gymnasts BEFORE they become influencers, not the other way around. Links: Secret Podcast (Episode about Recruiting + Nutrition Timeline)

While public interest in the unexplained continues to grow and topics like cryptozoology and UFOs become more mainstream, some phenomena still remain too unsettling to discuss openly. Among these are the chilling encounters with cloaked or invisible entities, shadowy beings whose presence is felt more often than openly reported. Countless eyewitnesses have described terrifying experiences of unseen figures seemingly watching, stalking, or hunting them. But what are these hidden predators, and why do their victims feel such profound dread? In this episode, we examine some of the most bizarre and unsettling encounters with these “Glimmer Intruders.” From hunters stalked by shimmering humanoids in the woods to homeowners confronting phantom intruders, we explore cases that challenge our understanding of reality itself. We discuss strange sightings that resemble the cloaking technology portrayed in the iconic film “Predator,” yet predate its release by decades, including unnerving personal accounts from across the globe. Then, for our Plus+ members, we step into the realm of energy healing and bodily mysteries. We investigate wild reports from energy medicine pioneer Donna Eden, including cases of bi-location during severe PMS episodes, phantom limbs possessing ESP-like awareness, and bizarre energy disruptions during deep meditative states. These accounts reveal the extraordinary abilities of the human body and mind, abilities science has yet to fully understand.
