    North London is red. Arsenal F.C. stormed the derby, overwhelming Tottenham Hotspur F.C. in a statement performance that reignites the title charge. The gap stretches back to five points, but with Manchester City F.C. still holding a game in hand, the pressure is far from over. City responded in kind, dispatching Newcastle at the Etihad. If Pep's side keep stacking wins, will the weight of expectation prove too much for the Gunners? And could it all come down to that blockbuster showdown at the Etihad in April? At the other end of the table, Spurs are dangerously close to the relegation zone after a limp derby display, with a new manager still searching for answers. Could Tottenham genuinely be dragged into a survival battle? And if the unthinkable happened, would it go down as the most shocking relegation in Premier League history?

    Philippians 2:5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:Commitment: DEDICATED to a cause, activity, or PERSON — a pledge, an undertaking.Commitment is not a FEELING you fall into — it's a decision you FOLLOW through on.5 OBSERVATIONS ABOUT COMMITMENT1. Commitment is a PERSONAL decision you back up with FOLLOW- THROUGH.Commitment is not proven by what you PROMISE, it's proven by what you PRACTICE.Ecclesiastes 5:2 Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few.Ecclesiastes 5:5 It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it.Proverbs 16:3 Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.Matthew 5:37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes' or ‘No'…2. Over time, your commitments REVEAL what you VALUE — and who YOU ARE.Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.Character is who you are when it COSTS you something.2 Timothy 1:12 I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him…If your relationship is built on CONVENIENCE, it will collapse under PRESSURE.3. Character is CARRYING out a decision long after the MOOD is gone.Discipline is choosing between what you want NOW and what you want MOST.Proverbs 20:7 The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.4. Commitment is an ongoing JOURNEY, not a one-time MOMENT.Philippians 3:10-11 I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death, so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead!5. Commitment is making a CHOICE to give up other CHOICES.Romans 12:9-10 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.Ephesians 5:21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.Mark 10:45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve…Ecclesiastes 4:12 A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

    Success at the highest level often hides a harder truth: discipline, sacrifice, and relentless pressure can coexist with loneliness, self doubt, and burnout. When winning becomes routine and falling is inevitable, mental toughness is no longer optional, it is survival. We dive deeper into this in the Habits & Hustle with Lindsey Vonn. We also chat about building resilience through failure, the real cost of elite performance, and redefining identity after retirement. Lindsey Vonn is an American former World Cup alpine ski racer on the US Ski Team. She won four World Cup overall championships and ranks third among female skiers behind Annemarie Moser Proll and Mikaela Shiffrin, with three consecutive titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010, plus another in 2012.

Paul's background was built the hard way — patrol cars, high-risk warrants, working alongside a canine, and years in environments where fundamentals weren't optional. They were survival.Today, Paul carries that same commitment into the training world, instructing law enforcement and responsible citizens in firearms tactics and performance. A Masterclass competitive shooter, Walther Pro Staff instructor, and Safariland cadre member, Paul is first and foremost a student of the craft — and it shows.We talk about building skill that holds under pressure, developing people and teams, the realities of the firearms training business, and what pursuing mastery really means in a world chasing shortcuts.

    Pressure. If you let it, it'll OWN you. Hijack your mind. Speed up your heart. Leave you spiraling before you even make a move. Ever think you can just "gut it out" in pressure situations? That rarely works. And the truth is, pressure isn't the problem. Your perspective is. That's why I brought mental performance expert, Dr. Cory Shaffer, onto the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show. Cory has trained Navy Special Operators, pro athletes, executives, and the nation's top athletic programs. He's made his mark teaching elite performers how to shrink the pressure moments down to size and manage the moment before the moment manages them. So if you're tired of pressure fueling your doubt, and you're ready to step into those high-stakes moments with calm, clarity, and COMMAND, then lock into this episode! In this episode, you'll hear: How to manage pressure by shifting your perspective instead of letting it control you Why meditation is a practical tool for presence and preparation Simple reflection practices busy executives and athletes can use to separate work from home life The dangers of "bro science" and how to filter out bad advice from true performance principles The power of the 20-Mile March and why consistent effort beats unsustainable sprints How small daily habits add up to long-term growth, confidence, and sustained success KEY QUOTES "The better you understand the variables that were present when you had success, the more likely you can replicate that success." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "The tortoise won the race because he stayed disciplined to the task at hand." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Leverage your technology to work for you instead of against you." – Dr. Cory Shaffer CONNECT WITH CORY X: https://x.com/coryshafferphd LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-shaffer-1a09816/ Website: https://www.youandkin.com/ CONNECT WITH J.R.

    Pressure is building in the UK for a ban on social media use for young people as countries across the world watch Australia, which introduced its own ban for under 16s last December. Meanwhile, the government here is launching a public consultation on children's use of social media which will look at a range of options, including a ban. It also said this week that it wants to create new legal powers so it can take action quickly. David Aaronovitch asks what the evidence so far tells us about social media and harm to young people and what else could be done about it short of an outright ban.Guests: Katy Watson, Sydney Correspondent Luke Tryl, Director More in Common Professor Amy Orben, Programme Leader at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, University of Cambridge Professor Sonia Livingstone, Department of Media and Communications, London School of Economics Pete Etchells, Professor of Psychology and Science Communication, Bath Spa UniversityPresenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley and Kirsteen Knight Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound engineer: James Beard Editor: Richard Vadon

Drawing from research in cognitive science and decades of leadership experience, he explains how to recognize self-sabotaging loops, interrupt reactive thinking, and respond with greater clarity and intention. You will come away with practical tools to strengthen resilience, navigate conflict without escalation, and make decisions that align with long-term goals rather than short-term fear.Episode Highlights07:52 The survival brain versus the executive brain and why most decisions are reactive15:01 The negotiation mistake that cost hundreds of thousands and the lesson that followed22:18 Why certainty is often a limbic reaction, not strategic clarity25:10 When grit becomes self sabotage instead of strength31:04 How to turn conflict into collaboration using motivational interviewing37:42 Three techniques to calm the stress response in real time40:12 The biggest misconception about mindset work and who it is really forFull show notes, transcript, and resources for this episode:https://podcast.deepwealth.com/518The Deep Wealth Podcast Most entrepreneurs do not fail.They just carry too much for too long.

    In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with my good buddy Vince Maltz, a high-performance mindset coach who works with NHL players, Division I athletes, and elite performers. We dig into what “mindset training” actually looks like in real life, beyond the clichés, and why it's inseparable from physiology, recovery, and nervous system regulation. We also get into the modern performance environment: fake expertise, too many voices in the kitchen, and why big organizations adapt slowly. Vince breaks down centralized vs. decentralized leadership, how athletes can learn to think for themselves inside a system, and why being a “nerd” at your sport is becoming a competitive advantage.  From there, we hit practical tools: how athletes move from conscious competence to unconscious competence faster, why distributed cognition matters in team sports, and what individuals can do today to improve performance through breathing, cold exposure, communication, and environment.

    Momentum is often celebrated, but leadership is more frequently tested when outcomes remain unclear. In this episode of the AVAIL podcast, director and producer Brent McCorkle offers a candid look at leading within uncertainty, exploring the tension between vision, risk, and surrendering results. Reflecting on the unexpected impact of I Can Only Imagine and the long-resisted path to I Can Only Imagine Two, Brent shares insights that reach far beyond filmmaking, particularly for leaders facing delays, setbacks, or the quiet strain of high-stakes work. This conversation reframes how timing, perceived failure, and uncontrollable variables shape meaningful progress.

    In this powerful continuation of our two-part series on mental health and Olympic athletes, we chat with Olympic sprinter Kendall Ellis and Olympic pentathlete Samantha Schultz for an honest, grounded conversation about what it truly means to perform at the highest level. Kendall and Samantha open up about the pressures that come with elite competition, the stigma they faced when seeking help, and the emotional toll of constantly striving to appear “strong.” They reflect on their early careers, share the strategies that helped them stay grounded, and explore why vulnerability and support systems are essential for athletes at any stage. The conversation also dives into identity, transitions, and the often‑overlooked mental health challenges that arise when injuries, retirement, or major life changes shift an athlete's sense of self. Kendall and Samantha offer compassionate, hard-earned insights for young athletes, families, coaches, and anyone navigating big goals while protecting their well‑being. Join us for a thoughtful, encouraging discussion that reminds us that mental health is just as vital as physical health—on and off the field.

    Pressure from every direction. Attacks you didn't expect. Battles you didn't ask for. This message speaks to seasons when it feels like life is closing in and there's no room to breathe. Hardships may surround you, but they are not strong enough to destroy what God is sustaining. Being pressed is not the same as being crushed.You'll be reminded that trials refine, not ruin. Even when you feel struck down, you are not abandoned. God's power shows up most clearly in fragile moments, proving that endurance is possible and victory is still within reach. Stay standing. What surrounds you does not define you—God's strength does.

Podem treballar junts. He vist que tens talent."En: "Marcel," said Pere, trying to control his agitation, "we've got this. We can work together. I've seen you have talent."Ca: Marcel, mirant a Pere amb sorpresa, va admetre: "Necessito la teva ajuda. Tinc por de no ser prou bo."En: Marcel, looking at Pere with surprise, admitted, "I need your help. I'm afraid I might not be good enough."Ca: Van començar a coordinar-se, compartint tasques i elaborant solucions.En: They began to coordinate, sharing tasks and devising solutions.Ca: Els dits de Pere es movien amb precisió mentre Marcel mantenia la calma, assegurant-se que el pacient tingués tot el que necessitava.En: Pere's fingers moved with precision while Marcel remained calm, ensuring the patient had everything they needed.Ca: Era un dansa perfecta.En: It was a perfect dance.Ca: En aquell moment de crisi, van crear una sinergia poderosa que omplia la sala.En: In that moment of crisis, they created a powerful synergy that filled the room.Ca: Quan la situació es va controlar, el doctor supervisor els va observar amb aprovació.En: When the situation was under control, the supervising doctor observed them with approval.Ca: "Heu treballat de manera excel·lent," va afirmar amb un somriure.En: "You have worked excellently," he stated with a smile.Ca: La satisfacció va omplir l'aire, i els dos interns van intercanviar una mirada de comprensió i amigable respecte.En: Satisfaction filled the air, and the two interns exchanged a look of understanding and friendly respect.Ca: Havien resolt no només un dilema mèdic, sinó també personal.En: They had resolved not only a medical dilemma but also a personal one.Ca: Pere va aprendre el poder del treball en equip i l'importància d'estendre la mà a qui la necessita.En: Pere learned the power of teamwork and the importance of reaching out to those in need.Ca: Marcel ara caminava amb el cap alt, amb confiança, sabent que havia trobat en ell mateix la capacitat que sempre havia buscat.En: Marcel now walked with his head held high, with confidence, knowing he had found within himself the ability he had always sought.Ca: Des d'aquell dia, els passadissos del Hospital de Sant Pau no només eren testimonis de cures mèdiques, sinó també de l'amistat i els somnis compartits.En: From that day on, the corridors of the Hospital de Sant Pau were witnesses not only to medical care but also to friendship and shared dreams.Ca: I així va ser com Pere i Marcel van descobrir la força i el coratge que tenien dins seu, preparats per qualsevol desafiament que el futur els oferia.En: And so it was that Pere and Marcel discovered the strength and courage they held within, ready for any challenge the future might offer them.

    Send a textIn this solo episode, I share what the Olympics really look like behind the scenes and what they taught me about consistency, discipline and pressure.Most people see highlight reels. What I experienced was structure, repetition, logistics, and calm preparation.The Olympic Village is simple. Security is strict. Media coverage is global. But what truly matters isn't glamour, it's daily discipline. Our team went through two and a half years of preparation, constant adjustments, mental health support, and detailed planning to perform on that stage.I talk about:Why Olympic athletes rely on boring, repetitive routinesHow pressure is treated as a privilege, not a threatWhy sleep, hydration, and recovery matter more than flashy training toolsWhat losing 6-0 to the USA taught us about growth and perspectiveWhy small daily habits separate elite performance from average effortOne of the biggest takeaways for me was this: consistency beats intensity. Not just in elite hockey but in everyday life.You don't need Olympic talent to apply Olympic standards. You need discipline, recovery, repetition, and the ability to stay calm when things don't go perfectly.This episode is not about medals.It's about process.If you want long-term progress, in fitness, business or life, this one is for you.

    The 2026 Winter Olympics are unfolding in Milan and Cortina, and we can't look away: We're watching athletes fly down mountains on skis and glide — sometimes slipping and falling — on the ice. Vikram Chib studies performance and how the brain responds to rewards at Johns Hopkins University. And he says rewards aren't just for Olympians; they're baked into basically everything humans do. But those rewards and the pressure that comes with them can come at a cost to people's brains. And even Olympians are human. Sometimes, we crack. So, today, Vikram dives into the science behind choking under pressure. Interested in more Olympics science?

    If mealtimes feel heavier than they should, this episode is going to make a lot click. I sit down with dietitians Diana and Dani to unpack how diet culture quietly slips into everyday parenting and shapes how kids see food, their bodies, and themselves. Their new book offers a roadmap for raising kids who trust their bodies and feel safe at the table, and our conversation goes far beyond picky eating. We talk about the language we use, the pressure we don't realize we're applying, and how small daily moments build a child's long-term relationship with food. What we discuss: Why diet culture starts affecting kids as early as preschool The “invisible curriculum” kids absorb from our modeling, messaging, and moments What food positivity actually means and how it goes beyond food neutrality How the Division of Responsibility supports trust and self-regulation Common ways parents accidentally misapply feeding advice Why labeling foods as good or bad backfires long term The connection between pressure, restriction, and future dieting patterns Reframing picky eaters as “learning eaters” Why fewer than 5 percent of so-called picky eaters are truly nutrient deficient How values like control vs connection influence feeding decisions Small shifts parents can make to protect a child's relationship with food To connect with Diana Rice follow her on Instagram @anti.diet.kids and check out all her resources at https://tinyseednutrition.com/  Follow Dani Lebowitz at @kid.food.explorers and visit her website: https://kidfoodexplorers.com/  Their new book “Food Positivity: How to Ditch Diet Culture and Talk to Kids About Food“ is available for pre-order https://www.amazon.com/Food-Positivity-Ditch-Culture-About/dp/1394335202?&linkCode=sl1&tag=dianakrice-20&linkId=cb9fdb7069f2f96a3f795cbd75485914&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl  Enjoy Diana Rice's first episode, “Your kid doesn't need a diet“ on the PedsDocTalk podcast. https://pedsdoctalk.com/podcast/your-kid-doesnt-need-a-diet-approaching-conversations-about-our-childs-weight-and-health-in-a-productive-way/  00:00 Welcome + What Is Food Positivity? 02:29 Meet Diana and Dani 04:24 How Diet Culture Starts in Early Childhood 06:09 The Invisible Curriculum: Modeling, Messaging, Moments 07:59 Food Positivity vs Food Neutrality 14:43 Division of Responsibility Made Simple 18:59 Why Red Light, Green Light Backfires 20:15 Felt Safety, Trust, and Confident Food Leadership 33:22 Rethinking “Picky Eating” as Learning Eating 38:10 Pressure, Restriction, and Self-Regulation 42:01 Small Shifts to Protect Your Child's Relationship with Food 48:43 Where to Get the Book + Final Takeaways Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

    Jared's in Dallas for Ticked Off Tuesday, hyping the Patreon (where the real complaints jump the line) and kicking things off with two everyday rants: gas stations that “label” broken pumps with a sad little piece of tape, and a new apartment with shower pressure so weak it turns bathing into a light misting. Then the listeners come in hot: one new homeowner gets hounded by the same window company so aggressively it goes from annoying to genuinely creepy, and she needs a go-to line for the dreaded “do you live alone?” question. Another duo tries to relive their Boston glory days with a casual early dinner… and discovers the city has apparently gone “velvet rope + reservation-only bar stools,” sending them on a scavenger hunt. We also get a property-line showdown (dogs, poop, and a kid sledding on someone else's lawn), plus a grad-school friend feud where a former friend gets drunk and affectionate, then goes ice-cold sober. Plenty of petty, plenty of relatable, and just enough chaos to make you grateful you're not the one dealing with the window guy.Jared is on tour!

    Brian and Beverly, the co-founders of Buffini & Company, are icons in the real estate world. Although Brian is the one normally in the limelight, he'd be the first to tell you he could not have been successful without the support of his wife, who also is the mother to their six children. In this episode of the It's a Good Life podcast, the couple is joined by their daughter, Anna, who chats with them about marriage, parenthood and staying strong even when life presents its inevitable challenges. This episode also serves as a sneak peak into the upcoming changes for the podcast as it prepares to shift to its roots next month as The Brian Buffini Show. YOU WILL LEARN: How the Buffinis handle pressure with a purpose-driven mindset, a family-first “team” mentality, and disciplined communication. Why belief—and filtering out “white noise”—is non-negotiable if you want to pursue a big vision. The importance of action, not just words, when it comes to your family and your business team. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Brian Buffini ShowAcres of Diamonds by Russell Conwell NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE: “It takes consistency to achieve the goal. So once you believe, then you've got to put your feet in the work and do the work. There's nothing short of that.” — Beverly Buffini "You've got to know what you want in order to not allow that white noise to interfere with your dreams and your beliefs.” — Beverly Buffini "Work on yourself harder than you work on your job.”— Brian Buffini “You want your kids to be readers, let them see you read in a book. You want your kids to be good communicators, let them see you communicate. You want your kids to be achievers, let them see you achieve.” — Brian Buffini “If it's going to affect information that you're going to use for yourself and others to make decisions, be bloody sure you know the source and make sure it's real.” — Brian Buffini Hosted on Acast.
