Episode Summary Should women with osteopenia or osteoporosis take calcium supplements? In this episode, Debi Robinson welcomes clinical pharmacist Jennifer Han, co-founder of Seen Nutrition, to explore why calcium remains one of the most important nutrients for bone health—and why the form of calcium matters. Jennifer shares her personal journey after experiencing pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis in her thirties and explains how that experience inspired her to help create a food-based calcium option. Together, Debi and Jennifer discuss calcium intake, digestion, nutrient absorption, common supplement forms, and why whole-food nutrition should remain the foundation of bone health. What You'll Learn Why calcium is essential for bone health Jennifer Han's personal osteoporosis story The difference between dietary calcium and traditional calcium supplements Common forms of supplemental calcium Why digestion affects calcium absorption The potential impact of long-term acid-suppressing medications on nutrient absorption Why food provides more than calcium alone How food-based calcium differs from conventional supplements Why protein, vitamin D, vitamin K, and magnesium all support healthy bones Practical ways to increase calcium intake Action Steps Track your calcium intake from food for a few days. Prioritize calcium-rich whole foods throughout the day. Support healthy digestion by slowing down and eating mindfully. Review long-term medications with your healthcare provider if appropriate. Remember that calcium works alongside protein, vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K. Choose supplements thoughtfully and focus on quality. Debi's Takeaway Calcium is essential—but healthy bones require much more than one nutrient. Nourishing your body with whole foods, supporting digestion, and creating healthy daily habits gives your bones the best opportunity to stay strong throughout life.

It shouldn't surprise us. Our God, who is a God of order, design, and truth, has a clear answer for our priorities. Our Number 2 priority should be your relationship with your spouse if you are married. Everything else but God should be prioritized behind your spouse. So often, this gets really messed up. We put work first, and everything else just    ends up in a mess. When we get married, we are marrying our best friend—someone we want to spend our lives with – all of our lives. When we neglect time with our spouse and our priorities get out of whack, our marriage and everyone around us suffer. Do you know what usually pushes your spouse's relationship out of order? Your kids. We will talk about them tomorrow. Want to keep your marriage intact and flourishing? Prioritize your spouse over kids and work, and under God. 

Host Christopher Robbins interviews Alicia Pace, author of the children's board book "How to Potty Train a Dinosaur," exploring how humor and creative perspective-shifting can transform the often-stressful potty training milestone into a joyful family experience. Pace shares her personal journey of discovering that relinquishing control and letting children take the "teacher" role—rather than being taught—dramatically reduces resistance and increases engagement. The conversation emphasizes that there is no single "right way" to potty train, and that parents must release perfectionism, embrace accidents as learning opportunities, and find humor in the messy process to maintain their own wellbeing and strengthen family bonds. Episode Highlights 00:02:15: Alicia explains how using a stuffed animal as the "student" flipped the dynamic, allowing her daughter to become the teacher and regain excitement about potty training. 00:03:45: Discussion of why dinosaurs were chosen for the book—their size juxtaposition with the small task creates humor while capitalizing on children's natural interest in dinosaurs. 00:05:20: Alicia reveals her initial attempt to follow a rigid system based on her sister-in-law's success, and how that pressure quickly crumbled, forcing her to rebuild with lower expectations. 00:07:30: The importance of finding humor in accidents—including embarrassing situations in other people's homes—as a survival mechanism for parents during potty training. 00:09:15: Alicia articulates the deeper purpose of her book: creating moments of connection, entertainment, and shared humor between parent and child rather than focusing solely on the functional outcome. Key Takeaways Shift the power dynamic by letting your child become the teacher rather than the student; this simple perspective change can dissolve resistance and reignite enthusiasm. Release the myth that your child's potty training success reflects your worth as a parent; accidents are developmentally normal and not a reflection of intelligence, goodness, or parenting quality. Prioritize connection and joy over perfection; reading together, giggling, and finding humor in the journey creates lasting positive associations and strengthens your relationship. Abandon one-size-fits-all methods; every child is different, and the most effective approach is the one that works for your unique family while maintaining your sanity and sense of humor. Quotable Moments "Whatever gets you through the night or the day is all right. Every child is different." — Christopher Robbins "There's only so much that we can control. And so, yeah, the surrender, the surrender that I had to learn as a potty training parent cleaning up urine from carpets of other people's homes when we would go out, that was a bit of an embarrassing one." — Alicia Pace "The goal there being to bring the family together, to unite in this... we might be getting one small step closer to what I need, which is to get out of diapers here. And the child being entertained and having a fun time with a parent, giggling with a parent." — Alicia Pace

Today we are talking about something that I think we all need to know about…  How to reset your dopamine. And before you think this is going to be one of those extreme episodes where I tell you to throw your phone into the ocean, stop drinking coffee, sit in a dark room for three days and eliminate everything fun from your life… That is absolutely not what we are doing. Because dopamine isn't bad. We need dopamine. Dopamine is part of what makes us want things. Pursue things. Work toward goals. Get up and go. The problem is that we are living in an environment where we can get enormous amounts of stimulation with almost zero effort. Open Instagram. Refresh your email. Check likes. Open TikTok. Eat something hyper-palatable. Buy something. Get a notification. Watch another episode. Click another video. Check your texts. Pick up your phone because you have 17 seconds with nothing to do. We have essentially eliminated boredom. And I think we need to talk about what that is doing to us. Because I don't think most people have a motivation problem. I think some people have made normal life too boring compared to the stimulation they consume all day long.   Think about this. Working toward a goal is slow. Building a business is slow. Getting stronger is slow. Improving a relationship is slow. Reading a book is slow. Learning something difficult is slow.     But your phone can give you novelty every half second. So what happens when your brain gets accustomed to incredibly stimulating rewards that require almost no effort? The things that actually build an awesome life can start feeling painfully boring.   And THAT is what I want to change today. I've been going deep into what Andrew Huberman, Chris Williamson, Stanford addiction psychiatrist Anna Lembke, Peter Attia and Gary Brecka have discussed around dopamine, reward, pleasure, discomfort and motivation. And there is one massive theme that keeps coming up: We need to stop getting so many rewards without earning them.   We need less cheap dopamine… And more earned dopamine. More accomplishment dopamine. More anticipation. More effort. More challenge. More doing hard things and feeling awesome afterward.   So today we're going to talk about what dopamine actually does, why our modern environment can completely screw with our motivation, what people mean by a dopamine reset, and most importantly… How we actually do it. Not forever. Not perfectly. But intentionally enough that normal life starts feeling interesting again.       Because imagine waking up and actually WANTING to work on your goals. Imagine sitting in your car without immediately opening your phone. Imagine finishing a workout and letting that accomplishment be the reward instead of instantly needing another stimulus. Imagine being fully engaged in dinner. Or a conversation. Or a walk. Or your kids. Or your work. That's what we're after. Not less enjoyment. More enjoyment from the things that actually matter. FIRST… WHAT IS DOPAMINE? Dopamine isn't simply the "pleasure chemical" This is probably the biggest misunderstanding. Dopamine plays a huge role in motivation, pursuit, learning, reinforcement and determining what your brain decides is worth pursuing again. Think less "this makes me happy" and more: "Go get that again." It's a molecule heavily involved in wanting and pursuing. Huberman explains dopamine in terms of baseline and peaks You have a baseline level of dopamine. Then certain experiences generate temporary increases above that baseline. The important part is what happens afterward. A big dopamine peak can be followed by a period where dopamine activity falls below where it was previously. This is part of why something incredible can sometimes leave you feeling strangely flat afterward. The higher and more frequently we chase enormous peaks, the more ordinary activities can start losing their appeal. Think about it like contrast If you eat incredibly sweet processed foods all day… A blueberry doesn't taste very sweet. There isn't anything wrong with the blueberry. Your reference point changed. The same general concept applies here. When your environment becomes filled with intense stimulation… Quiet feels boring. Reading feels boring. Work feels boring. Walking feels boring. A normal conversation feels boring. Your life didn't necessarily become boring. Your stimulation threshold changed. WHAT I MEAN BY "CHEAP DOPAMINE" I'm going to use the phrase cheap dopamine throughout this episode even though scientifically dopamine itself isn't cheap or expensive. What I mean is: A high-reward experience requiring very little effort. Things like: Endless short-form videos Constant social media refreshing Notifications Online shopping Gambling Highly processed foods Video games for hours and hours Constant snacking Drinking Continually checking texts Refreshing email Internet rabbit holes Watching episode after episode after episode Constant novelty And here's the key… None of those things has to be inherently evil. It's the dose. The frequency. And whether you've lost control over your consumption. There's a massive difference between choosing to watch a movie on Saturday night… And being literally unable to stand in an elevator for 25 seconds without checking your phone. That's the part I want us to notice. THE WORLD HAS REMOVED THE WAITING This might be one of the biggest problems. Almost everything used to have some friction. You wanted food? You cooked it. You wanted entertainment? You waited until your show came on. You wanted to talk to your friend? You called them. Maybe they weren't home. You wanted to buy something? You drove somewhere. You wanted information? You found a book. Now? Everything is immediate. Food. Entertainment. Shopping. Attention. Validation. Communication. Information. Novelty. Almost every human desire has an app attached to it. And our brains evolved in an environment where rewards generally required work. Now we can receive reward after reward while lying horizontally on the couch. That is a massive mismatch. THE PLEASURE-PAIN SEESAW One of my favorite explanations comes from Dr. Anna Lembke. She describes pleasure and pain almost like opposite sides of a balance. When we repeatedly push hard toward pleasure… Our brain tries to restore balance. And over time, you may need more of the stimulus just to experience the same effect. This is incredibly obvious with severe addiction. But I think it's useful to recognize much milder versions in ourselves. Have you ever: Opened Instagram for five minutes and 45 minutes disappeared? Finished a show and immediately needed another episode? Finished dessert and started looking for something else sweet? Checked one notification and then somehow checked four different apps? Picked up your phone without consciously deciding to? That automatic reaching is important. You aren't necessarily choosing anymore. You're responding. And I want us to get back into choosing. WHY NOTHING FEELS EXCITING ANYMORE Sometimes people say: "I'm unmotivated." "I don't feel like working." "I can't concentrate." "I'm bored." "I don't really feel excited about anything." Obviously there can be many medical, psychological and situational reasons for those feelings. But there is another question worth asking: How much stimulation are you consuming? Because if you're exposing yourself to novelty constantly… Your brain never gets a chance to be bored enough to create. Never bored enough to think. Never bored enough to solve a problem. Never bored enough to decide what you actually want. We're treating boredom like an emergency. I actually think boredom is incredibly productive. Some of my best ideas happen when there's nothing else coming into my brain. And we are filling every single empty pocket.   DOPAMINE STACKING Huberman talks about something that I think is fascinating: stacking multiple dopamine-producing experiences together. Think about a workout. Exercise itself can be rewarding. But now we add: Pre-workout. Favorite playlist. Phone. Texts. Social media. Energy drink. Maybe stimulants. Maybe a reward meal afterward. Maybe we post the workout and check responses. We've taken one intrinsically rewarding activity and stacked reward upon reward upon reward. And his point isn't that you can never do those things. It's that you don't necessarily want every good experience in life turned up to 100 every single time. Sometimes train without the perfect playlist. Sometimes walk without the podcast. Sometimes drink the coffee without simultaneously scrolling Instagram. Sometimes eat without watching television. Separate the rewards. You don't have to eliminate pleasure. Stop supercharging every experience. LEARN TO LOVE EFFORT This might be my favorite part of the entire episode. We need to stop making the reward exclusively something that comes AFTER the work. "I'll work out and then I can have this." "I'll finish this project and then I'll reward myself." "I'll complete my work and then I'll scroll." There's nothing wrong with celebrating accomplishments. But we also want to train ourselves to associate the effort itself with something positive. Because if the entire purpose of doing something difficult is the reward waiting at the end… The work becomes something you're trying to escape. Instead: "This discomfort means I'm getting stronger." "This is hard because I'm growing." "I'm proud of myself for doing this when I don't feel like doing it." "This is what keeping promises to myself feels like." "This is who I am." That shift is huge. The workout becomes the win. Doing the work becomes the win. Keeping the promise becomes the win. USE DISCOMFORT ON PURPOSE This theme comes up across a lot of these conversations. We're living in an unbelievably comfortable world. Temperature-controlled houses. Food everywhere. Cars. Couches. Entertainment. Delivery. Escalators. Amazon. Everything is optimized to eliminate friction. But voluntary discomfort can be incredibly valuable. Exercise. Walking. Strength training. Running. Sauna. Cold exposure when appropriate and done safely. Doing something physically difficult. Getting outside when conditions aren't perfect. Taking the stairs. Having the difficult conversation. Doing the work you're avoiding. The idea isn't: "Suffering is good." The idea is: Stop organizing your entire life around avoiding discomfort. Because challenge followed by satisfaction is very different from pleasure followed by emptiness. One you earned. One you consumed. We need both fun and hard things. But modern life has heavily tilted us toward consumption. DON'T START YOUR DAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S DOPAMINE Here's something I think would change a lot of people's lives. Do not roll over and immediately hand your brain to your phone. Because instantly you've got: Texts. News. Instagram. Email. TikTok. Other people's emergencies. Other people's opinions. Other people's lives. Other people's accomplishments. Other people's bodies. Other people's vacations. Other people's businesses. Other people's problems. Before you've even decided what YOU want your day to look like. I would rather protect that first part of the morning. Wake up. Water. Sunlight. Walk. Workout. Journal. Think. Plan. Work. Whatever your routine is. Just don't immediately flood your brain with novelty. You should decide the direction of your day before an algorithm decides it for you. THE 2.0 DOPAMINE RESET Okay. Here is what I would actually do. Not some insane internet detox. A realistic reset. RULE #1: Identify YOUR cheap dopamine Ask yourself: What do I compulsively reach for? Not what does the internet tell me is bad. What has control over ME? Maybe yours is: Instagram. TikTok. Shopping. Sugar. Video games. News. YouTube. Email. Texting. Something else. Identify the top one or two. Don't try to become a monk overnight. RULE #2: Take a meaningful break from the biggest offender If something truly feels compulsive, consider taking a real period away from it rather than constantly trying to moderate it. Try deleting it for a week. Maybe two. Maybe 30 days. See what happens. You might be shocked by how often your hand reaches for an app that isn't there. That's valuable information. RULE #3: Stop filling every gap This is a HUGE one. We're bringing back empty space. Stand in line. Just stand there. Drive five minutes. No podcast. Walk around the block. No headphones. Sit outside. Do nothing. Take a shower without content playing. Cook dinner without a video. You are retraining yourself to tolerate a lower level of stimulation. And here's the funny thing… After a while it doesn't feel low stimulation. It feels peaceful. RULE #4: Create phone-free zones Pick places where your phone does not belong. Examples: Bedroom Dinner table Gym Family time Bathroom First hour of the morning Last hour before bed Don't rely purely on willpower. Change your environment. Leave the phone somewhere else. Make the bad habit inconvenient. RULE #5: Turn off almost every notification Notifications are someone else deciding when your attention moves. Think about that. Unless something legitimately requires immediate attention… Turn it off. RULE #6: Stop stacking everything Coffee + Instagram + television + food + texting? No. Pick one. Workout + podcast + scrolling between sets + energy drink + Instagram? Simplify it. Let an experience stand alone. Food can just be food. Coffee can just be coffee. A walk can just be a walk. A conversation can just be a conversation. RULE #7: Get your dopamine through pursuit This is the big replacement strategy. You can't just remove things. You need better things to move toward. Exercise. Building something. Learning. Working. Creating. Sports. Relationships. Adventure. Goals. Competition. Skill. Experiences. Meaningful challenges. Get obsessed with something difficult. That is completely different than being addicted to consumption. RULE #8: Do one hard thing every day I love this rule. Every day, intentionally do something that you'd rather avoid. Workout hard. Make the phone call. Send the proposal. Clean the closet. Have the conversation. Finish the project. Run the hill. Get into the cold water if that's safe for you. Walk when you'd rather sit. Do the thing you've been procrastinating. You start creating evidence: "I don't have to feel like doing something in order to do it." That is power. RULE #9: Prioritize sleep Your brain isn't operating independently of your body. If you're chronically sleep-deprived, everything becomes harder. Motivation. Impulse control. Training. Food choices. Emotional regulation. Focus. Peter Attia and Huberman both hammer sleep for a reason. If we're trying to optimize our brain while sleeping five hours… We're focusing on the wrong end of the problem. RULE #10: Morning sunlight and movement Huberman talks frequently about getting outdoor light early in the day to anchor your circadian system. I love pairing that with movement. Outside. Walk. Light. No Instagram. Let your nervous system wake up naturally. It's incredibly simple. And simple things done repeatedly tend to beat complicated hacks. THE 24-HOUR CHALLENGE Here is your challenge. For the next 24 hours: No phone for the first 30 minutes after waking. No social media until you've completed something productive. Turn off unnecessary notifications. No phone while eating. Take one walk without headphones. Do one difficult thing you've been avoiding. No double-screening. If you're watching TV, you're not also scrolling. Put your phone outside your bedroom tonight. Let yourself experience boredom. Notice every time you instinctively reach for stimulation. Don't judge yourself. Observe yourself. Because awareness is the beginning of changing anything. THEN TRY SEVEN DAYS Now let's level it up. For seven days: Reduce your biggest cheap-dopamine behavior dramatically. You don't need to eliminate all pleasure. In fact, please don't. Go to dinner. Laugh. Drink your coffee. Listen to music. Hang with friends. Enjoy your life. This isn't punishment. We're trying to reclaim our ability to enjoy NORMAL things. That's the goal. Less artificial stimulation. More real life. ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION Before you reach for something, ask: Am I choosing this, or am I escaping something? That question can completely change things. Why am I opening Instagram? Because I intentionally decided to spend 15 minutes enjoying it? Fine. Or because this task got difficult? Why am I eating this? Because I'm hungry and I want it? Fine. Or because I'm uncomfortable? Why am I drinking? Because I'm celebrating with friends? Or because I can't tolerate sitting with how I feel? Why am I checking email for the 47th time? Because I'm waiting for something important? Or because working on the project in front of me is harder? That pause between impulse and behavior… That's where your power is. CHEAP DOPAMINE VS EARNED DOPAMINE This is the easiest way I can summarize the episode. Cheap dopamine: Consume. Scroll. Click. Watch. Refresh. Snack. Buy. Escape. Earned dopamine: Build. Train. Create. Learn. Connect. Explore. Compete. Finish. Accomplish. The first category isn't evil. But if the balance of your life is overwhelmingly consumption… Don't be surprised when your motivation disappears. Shift the ratio. More creating. Less consuming. More doing. Less watching. More participating. Less observing. More real life. Less digital life. WE NEED ANTICIPATION BACK I think anticipation is disappearing. When everything is immediately available… There's nothing to look forward to. And looking forward to something is part of the fun. Plan the trip. Wait for Friday night. Save the amazing dessert for dinner. Don't buy everything the second you want it. Put the concert on the calendar. Build toward the race. Earn the reward. Delay things intentionally sometimes. The waiting isn't ruining the experience. The waiting IS part of the experience. YOUR LIFE SHOULD NOT NEED CONSTANT ENTERTAINMENT This might be the line I want you to remember. You should not need to be entertained every minute in order to enjoy your life. Your kids shouldn't either. We need boring car rides. We need afternoons with nothing scheduled. We need conversations without phones. We need walks. We need staring out the freaking window. We need thinking. We need daydreaming. We need opportunities for our brains to say: "Okay… what should we do?" Creativity often appears after the stimulation disappears. THE GOAL IS NOT LOWER DOPAMINE This is important. We're not trying to crush dopamine. We're not trying to become emotionless. We're not trying to avoid things that make us feel amazing. We're trying to protect our ability to feel amazing. That's different. We want the vacation to feel incredible. The concert. The accomplishment. The amazing dinner. The business win. The race. The adventure. The hug. The goal. The experience. We just don't need to manufacture an artificial mini-version of that feeling 800 times between breakfast and lunch. Leave some room. Let your baseline exist without constantly smashing the stimulation button.   Here's what I think is so interesting about all of this. We have designed a world where almost everything that used to require effort can now be accessed instantly. And that sounds like freedom. But if we're not careful… Convenience becomes dependence. Entertainment becomes distraction. Pleasure becomes compulsion. And access becomes addiction. The answer isn't to reject modern life. I'm certainly not giving up my phone. I'm not giving up coffee. I'm not giving up Instagram. I'm not giving up amazing food or concerts or trips or all the fun things. I want MORE life. That's actually the entire point. I don't want to spend my life looking down at a screen getting tiny rewards when there are enormous rewards available by actually participating in life. I want the dopamine from doing the workout I didn't want to do. Building the business. Taking the trip. Making the memory. Trying something new. Getting really freaking good at something. Having an amazing conversation. Being completely present with my kids. Creating something I'm proud of. Doing something hard. That's the dopamine I want more of. And maybe the simplest takeaway from this whole episode is this: Stop making pleasure so easy and effort so optional. Let yourself work for things. Let yourself wait for things. Let yourself be bored. Let yourself struggle. Let yourself anticipate. Let yourself earn some of the really good feelings. Because when we stop trying to make every moment maximally stimulating… Something really cool happens. Normal life starts becoming awesome again. And that is how to be awesome at resetting your dopamine.

Mickey Spagnola joins K&C to discuss the Dallas Cowboys' final roster cuts and the decision to prioritize veteran experience over developmental players. He analyzes the surprise release of Joe Milton, the ongoing competition at right tackle involving Terence Steele, and the finalization of the team's practice squad.

What happens when being a great clinician is no longer enough?Dr. Christopher Ramsey (@chris_ramsey_dmd) has spent more than 25 years in dentistry, but his approach to building a successful practice has surprisingly little to do with chasing the latest technique, impressing other dentists, or adding another plaque to the wall.His philosophy: stop treating dentistry like a commodity.In this episode, Ellie Halabian sits down with Dr. Ramsey to unpack what actually separates practices once clinical competency is expected—from Disney-level hospitality and uncompromising team standards to patient psychology, case presentation, fees, and the subtle details that shape how patients perceive value.Ramsey explains why everything that happens inside a dental practice is "theater," why great hospitality can sometimes outperform better dentistry, and why dentists need to stop making business decisions based on fear.They also get into the part most dentists struggle to talk about: money and case acceptance. Ramsey breaks down why his consults convert at a high rate without pressure or gimmicks, why he doesn't lead with before-and-after photos, and how body language, language, environment, and trust influence a patient's decision long before you ever present a treatment plan.This isn't an episode about becoming another better dentist. It's about building a practice patients can immediately tell is different.In this episode, we discuss:Why clinical excellence alone won't differentiate your practice — and what patients actually notice.What Disney can teach dentistry about hospitality, consistency, team standards, and perceived value.Why dentists undercharge and undersell themselves — and how fear quietly shapes the practices they build.The psychology behind a high-converting consult — without pressure, gimmicks, or hard selling.Why Ramsey doesn't lead with before-and-after photos and what he believes creates trust instead.Why your local market matters more than Instagram — and the danger of building a practice to impress other dentists.Want to learn more from Dr. Christopher Ramsey?

f you want to give through Grace Church you can do so here: https://pushpay.com/g/grace-alone?src...To Learn more about Grace Church go to https://gracechurchco.com/The Hurry Problem is a 5-week journey to help you slow down and reconnect with God and others. Learn how to replace stress and distraction with rest, rhythm, and intentional living—because life is better with less rush and more presence.In this message, Pastor Rick Long of Grace Church addresses the pervasive problem of the "hurry trap"—a state of constant busyness that he identifies not just as a scheduling issue, but as a deep-seated spiritual problem (7:01). Drawing from the biblical story of Mary and Martha (9:51), he explains that while both sisters had good intentions, Martha became overwhelmed by her attempts to serve, while Mary chose the "one thing" that mattered most: sitting at the feet of Jesus (10:36, 18:27).Pastor Rick offers five practical principles to help believers escape the cycle of hurry and find rest for their souls:Abide before attempting to achieve: Prioritize your relationship with God through worship and prayer before checking your phone or starting your to-do list (17:27, 23:18).Stop obsessing over every detail: Do not let the pursuit of perfection or urgent tasks distract you from being present and connected with people (25:55, 30:51).Focus on the one thing that matters most: Continually evaluate your priorities, eliminate distractions, and elevate God and your relationships to the top of your list (32:29, 37:05).Be fully present: Practice single-tasking, give others your full attention, and remember that life is short—be wise with your time (41:51, 46:07).Create margin for connection: Build quiet moments into your day, observe a weekly Sabbath, and leave space for God to interrupt your plans (47:39, 52:10).The message concludes with an invitation to find rest in Jesus, emphasizing his promise in Matthew 11:28-30: "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest" (54:43).0:00 Welcome and Announcements2:03 Escaping the Hurry Trap7:06 Hurry is a Spiritual Problem9:51 The Story of Mary and Martha12:13 Five Ways Hurry Becomes a Problem17:26 Principle 1: Abide Before Attempting to Achieve25:56 Principle 2: Stop Obsessing Over Every Detail32:29 Principle 3: Focus on the One Thing That Matters Most41:51 Principle 4: Be Fully Present47:38 Principle 5: Create Margin for Connection54:43 Matthew 11;28-30 and Conclusion

In XYBM 164, we sit down with Norense Odiase, former pro basketball player, corporate account executive, and viral storyteller — for a deeply candid conversation about navigating grief, identity, and the pursuit of peace beyond performance. Norris breaks down his path through the NBA G-League and Amazon, unpacks the hidden weight of sudden loss and childhood trauma, and explores the five core questions every man must answer to know who he truly is. He also opens up about the emptiness that comes with reaching the top of your career, the difference between empathy and compassion, and how an NYU cinematography course helped him turn raw, unscripted vulnerability into a movement.This is a must-watch for anyone who has achieved everything they thought they wanted only to still feel empty inside — and for anyone ready to step out of survival mode, redefine success, and find purpose beyond the noise.BOOK US FOR SPEAKING + BRAND DEALS:————————————Explore our diverse collaboration opportunities as the leading and fastest-growing Black men's mental health platform on social media.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell take a break from the Alex Murdaugh retrial drama this week to revisit one of the most devastating cases they've covered in their careers: the 2015 death of 38-year-old Sara Lynn Moore Colucci.  Nine years after Sarah Lynn Colucci's mother Barbara Moore filed a wrongful death lawsuit, accused killer Michael Colucci finally sat for his deposition — after skipping two of them — and pleaded the Fifth roughly 100 times, refusing to answer everything from the color of his tie to his own birthday.  We break down the devastating questions he wouldn't answer about the autopsy findings, his shifting stories, and his financial troubles — and why Barbara's new motion for summary judgment asks the judge to apply adverse inferences to 28 of them.  They also expose the staggering double standard of South Carolina justice: Colucci was fined just $1,283.00 for blowing off two depositions, while Mandy was ordered to pay $176,500.00 in a case she isn't even a party to.  Plus, an exciting announcement: COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller, the first LUNASHARK® “Drop-Feed”, launches Friday. Let's Dive In…

What if the number of candles on your birthday cake isn't the most important measure of how you're aging?Two people can be the exact same chronological age and have remarkably different levels of strength, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, inflammation, energy, resilience, and physical capability. In this episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway explores the emerging science of biological versus chronological aging—and, more importantly, what you can actually do about it. Drawing from longevity research, his experience as a physician, and the principles behind his upcoming book The Biology of Becoming, Dr. Hemingway shares seven powerful signals that can influence the trajectory of how we age—including muscle, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, sleep, inflammation, nutrition, and something that may matter more than all the biomarkers: knowing what you're getting healthy for.You'll also hear a powerful client story, the simple reason a 10-minute walk after dinner can matter more than you think, why muscle may be your body's most important “retirement account,” and a practical 7-Day Becoming Younger Experiment you can begin immediately. Because longevity isn't really about trying to live forever. It's about building a body capable of continuing to say yes to the people, experiences, adventures, and purpose that make life worth living. Your birthday will keep changing. But how you age isn't entirely predetermined. Every choice is a signal—and your biology is always listening.**Free PDF:  "5 Questions That Will CHANGE your life"   Inside the PDF, we share how to partner with your biology instead of fighting it.  These questions will help you change your signals, your biology and your life, one day at a time.*And, in my new Performance, and Longevity medical practice we specialize in turning back your biological age and OPTIMIZING HORMONES so you can feel a decade or more younger so you can do the things you want to do that you thought were no longer possible due to your age.  Join the waitlist here!*Don't wait to Prioritize your health, Start Today with the Simple and Powerful Steps detailed in my Best-selling book, PREVENTABLE.*ACCESS my FREE workshop, "GET 10 Years Younger, Stronger, and Sharper"  How to turn back your biological age 10-20 years so you can do the things you want to do that you no longer thought possible due to your age.  Perform at your best and live your best life!Join my Free Masterclass on Midlife Hormones, "Why You Don't Feel like Yourself anymore and What to Do about it!"JET LAG Survival Guide.  Free PDF!

Retired Associate Justice Thomas L. Willhite Jr. of the California Court of Appeal, Second District, Division Four, joins Tim Kowal and Jeff Lewis to discuss nearly four decades in the legal system, from coordinating capital appeals at the California Attorney General's office to authoring roughly 2,000 appellate opinions. He serves as a mediator, arbitrator, and appellate consultant at ADR Services, Inc. since retiring from the bench in 2023.Justice Willhite offers candid, experience-grounded guidance on appellate briefing and oral argument. And as a legal lecturer and consultant in Italy, Justice Willhite offers some striking comparative law contrasts.Are your introductions more than 3-4 pages? Too long. Don't make the justices read your arguments twice.Prioritize conciseness, a balanced statement of facts, and the importance of confronting adverse authority—in the opening brief, rather than waiting for the reply.What are justices thinking during oral argument? And how should advocates deal with a cold bench?At oral argument, sometimes justices write notes—what are they writing?Did you know Italian courts don't have juries? But the judges who decide the cases have to write detailed judgments—sometimes hundreds of pages long!We ask Justice Willhite: Given the choice between stellar briefs and merely serviceable oral argument—or serviceable briefs but stellar oral argument—which is better?How would you answer?Listen to the full episode and subscribe to the California Appellate Law Podcast for more insights from the bench and bar

Do you ever feel like there's never enough time for you? Between your kids, work, the house, appointments, workouts, and everything else on your plate, taking care of your health and the things that matter to you can easily get pushed to “someday.” In this episode, I'm joined by Sarah Colbert, former television news anchor and host of the Balanced Mom Life podcast, to talk about why constantly feeling like you “don't have time” may not actually be a time problem. Sarah shares her simple 3-step framework to audit, protect, and pre-decide your time so you can stop wondering where your days went and start intentionally making room for what matters most. We also talk about the identity shift that happens as your kids get older, why moms often fill newfound time with comfortable or productive tasks, and how learning to protect your time can make consistency with healthy habits, weight loss, workouts, self-care, and your personal goals feel so much more doable. If you're a busy mom trying to lose weight, prioritize your health, or simply make more time for yourself without feeling like everything else has to fall apart, this conversation will help you stop waiting for “someday” and start using the time you already have more intentionally.

Today I share some research we're doing on wages in the inflationary “AI-economy.” While many people are studying the labor market (it's a huge industry), it's not hard to see that most wages are not keeping up with inflation, yet some are. As you'll hear we now see the “Superworker” jobs and roles that are “inflation protected” and we also see the jobs that are declining in value. I also discuss a new pragmatic approach to corporate AI investment, as well as the slow end of the “SaaSpocalypse” idea. In other words, many of the existing systems you have are not going to be “destroyed” or “replaced” by agentic disruptors: rather these software companies are becoming AI savvy. This includes Workday, Oracle, ADP, SAP, as well as hypergrowth companies like HiBob. Even Docebo and Cornerstone are now seeing the benefits of their AI pivots. Anyway lots to talk about, and I'll be publishing more on all this soon. Stay tuned for the big Jupiter release of Galileo, it will blow your mind – coming in a few weeks. PS.

Is Something in Your Home Quietly Affecting Your Family's Nervous System? Hidden everyday habits may be adding stress to your child's brain without you realizing it. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge shares practical, science-backed strategies through her Regulation First Parenting™ approach to help families reduce emotional dysregulation and build calmer, more resilient nervous systems.Many parents focus on stress, sleep, and nutrition—but what if hidden environmental factors are also playing a role?In this episode, I sit down with EMF expert Nick Pinault to discuss how everyday technology may contribute to nervous system stress—and more importantly, what parents can realistically do without fear or overwhelm.Let's calm the brain first, because small changes can make a meaningful difference.Why are some kids more sensitive to environmental stressors?Not every child responds to environmental stress in the same way. Children with ADHD, anxiety, autism, OCD, PANS/PANDAS, or other forms of nervous system dysregulation often have more sensitive nervous systems.Behavior is communication. Sometimes what looks like defiance or emotional reactivity is really an overwhelmed brain asking for support.Simple ways to reduce stress on the nervous system:Turn off Wi-Fi overnight.Keep phones out of bedrooms.Use speakerphone or wired headphones when possible.Prioritize healthy sleep habits.A regulated nervous system is more resilient to everyday challenges.Can EMFs affect my child's sleep and nervous system?One of the biggest concerns discussed is sleep quality.Nick explains that research suggests wireless radiation before bedtime may make it harder for the brain to fully transition into sleep. Since sleep is one of the biggest regulators of emotional health, protecting it is one of the simplest ways to support your child.Imagine your child struggles every morning despite getting enough hours in bed. Before assuming they're lazy or oppositional, it may be worth looking at bedtime routines—including where devices are kept.Better sleep habits include:Charging phones outside the bedroom.Turning devices to Airplane Mode.Creating a technology-free bedtime routine.Shutting off Wi-Fi overnight whenever possible.What simple changes can parents make without giving up technology?The good news is that this conversation isn't about eliminating technology.It's about making small, sustainable choices that reduce unnecessary exposure while supporting better nervous system health.Easy changes any family can make:Use wired headphones at home.Download movies before travel instead of streaming.Use Ethernet when possible.Keep devices away from your body when not in use.Model healthy technology habits for your children.Progress—not perfection—is the goal.

What are the most important things you should focus on when owning and operating a shopping center?As I get closer to Episode 100 of I Own A Shopping Center. Now What?, I'm counting down my Top 20 tips for shopping center owners. In Part 1, I'm starting with five areas that directly impact tenant performance, property operations, leasing, and ultimately the value of your asset.From collecting tenant sales and staying on top of rent to keeping your property clean, well-lit, and properly leased, these are the fundamentals I pay attention to across my own shopping centers.I also share why tenant sales reporting gives you an early look at business performance, how being too lenient with delinquent tenants can actually contribute to vacancy, and why your leasing agent needs enough time to learn your property before you judge their performance.KEY TAKEAWAYS- Require sales reporting from local and regional tenants whenever possible.- Use tenant sales to identify problems and opportunities early.- Stay disciplined with rent collection and enforce late fees.- Don't let relaxed collection practices turn delinquency into vacancy.- Keep your shopping center and vacant spaces clean and presentable.- Prioritize lighting throughout the property to improve safety and visibility.- Give a new third-party leasing agent time to understand your asset and market.- Require activity reports so you know whether your leasing agent is actually prospecting.- If leasing stalls, evaluate the rent, positioning, marketing, and condition of the space.- Support good leasing agents with the tools they need to get deals done.This is Part 1 of my four-part series covering the Top 20 things I believe every shopping center owner should know.If you own, operate, manage, or lease shopping centers, subscribe so you don't miss the rest of the countdown to Episode 100.BECOME A COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE ROCKSTAR: https://www.bethazor.com/https://www.azoracademy.com/For more commercial real estate training: https://www.bethazor.com/training/FOLLOW ME ON SOCIALFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/azoradvisoryservices/Twitter: https://twitter.com/bethazor1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bethazor/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/6315636/#retailleasing #commercialrealestateinvesting #retailleasingcoach #bethazor

In this episode of Building the Premier Accounting Firm, Roger Knecht welcomes back Tyler Otto to discuss the practical implementation of artificial intelligence within an accounting firm. This conversation highlights why treating AI as a new, trainable employee is the most effective approach for scaling operations and improving firm efficiency. In This Episode: 00:00:00 Introduction and Embracing AI 00:03:11 Treating AI as an Intern 00:10:15 The Reality of AI Development Time 00:16:49 Buy Versus Build AI Solutions 00:22:02 Future-Proofing Your Firm 00:25:41 AI for Firm Visibility and Control 00:28:36 Personal Growth and Community Engagement 00:32:08 Gratitude and Concluding Thoughts Key Takeaways: Adopt AI tools strategically by treating them like entry-level employees that require training, supervision, and clear process guidelines. Prioritize integrating AI features into existing software platforms rather than attempting to build proprietary, custom-coded systems. Recognize that implementing new technology requires an initial investment of time and labor before actual time savings occur. Focus firm leadership on high-level strategy and client interaction by utilizing AI to handle repetitive tasks and internal visibility. Featured Quotes: "If you want to figure out how to roll out AI, think of it like you just hired a new entry-level employee." — Tyler Otto "You have to slow down to speed up. You have to build the tools, build the skills, build the processes." — Tyler Otto "Your firm is a reflection of the leadership. So if you're not willing to work on yourself, you're not going to be able to expect your staff to be the person your firm needs." — Tyler Otto Conclusion: Thank you for joining us for another episode of Building the Premier Accounting Firm with Roger Knecht.

Bob shares his blueprint for breaking past the $3 million mark and scaling a landscape business to nearly $9 million in total revenue. Scott explains that his business journey involved transitioning from a small-scale operation to a large-scale enterprise by purchasing a local garden center and integrating his landscape services. A major theme of the discussion is the evolution of leadership, specifically the necessity of delegating tasks to specialists who possess more talent than the owner in specific areas. Bob emphasizes that maintaining high organizational standards and having difficult conversations are essential for cultivating a professional culture and high-quality staff.  Key Takeaways: Hire people who are smarter and more skilled than you in specific areas to unlock higher-quality results and free up your time to focus on high-level growth. Lean into uncomfortable conversations early by framing them around your professional responsibilities rather than making them feel like a personal attack. Enforce strict, consistent standards daily because the behaviors you permit in your life or organization are ultimately the behaviors you promote. Prune the bottom five percent of your clients or projects to eliminate unnecessary time drains and redirect your energy toward high-value opportunities. Prioritize progress over perfection by trusting your gut, making timely decisions, and keeping yourself moving forward even if the path isn't perfectly straight.

When you hear the phrase "Turkey teeth," what comes to mind?For many dentists, it's over-prepared teeth, rushed treatment, and cosmetic cases gone wrong.But is the problem really the country—or the clinician?In this episode of TeethMatter, I sit down with Dr. Eyup Çelik (@doctorcelik), a cosmetic dentist practicing in Istanbul, to explore one of the most polarizing topics in modern dentistry: dental tourism.Rather than debating whether patients should travel abroad for treatment, we examine the standards that separate exceptional dentistry from treatment driven by speed, price, or unrealistic expectations.If you're an American dentist who's skeptical of dental tourism, this conversation may challenge some of your assumptions. We discuss where the criticisms are justified, where misconceptions exist, and why trust, communication, and conservative treatment planning matter far more than geography.In this episode, we discuss:Is "Turkey teeth" a stereotype—or a real problem?Why patients are leaving the U.S. for cosmetic dentistry.The biggest mistakes that give dental tourism a bad reputation.The red flags every patient should know before choosing a cosmetic dentist.How AI is reshaping the future of aesthetic dentistry.What American dentists can learn from the patient experience abroad.Connect with Dr. Eyup Celik via Instagram or check out his website to learn more.If this episode challenged your perspective or sparked a new conversation, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

"Your first step forward may be giving yourself time to process."

Tim Dyck and Katie Currens discuss how to approach those first days with greater clarity. Their conversation reflects on the importance giving yourself time to process what happened, and to take an objective look at what happened to determine whether legal advice may be appropriate. Tim also explains why understanding your financial runway can create space to process the loss before deciding what comes next. From acknowledging your own role in what happened to considering a career pivot, the discussion focuses on moving forward thoughtfully rather than reacting in the moment.

We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?Dr. Allen and guest Ben Reinberg discuss the importance of building a “hard-asset empire” to achieve generational wealth. They explore how tangible assets like commercial real estate, specifically medical office space, provide financial resilience and cash flow during uncertain economic cycles.Main Points:Adopt a long-term roadmap for wealth creation rather than reacting to public market volatility.Prioritize hard assets that provide consistent cash flow, tax advantages, and durability.Recognize that institutional investors and sovereign funds are increasing their allocation to tangible assets.Focus on sectors like medical office space that remain essential regardless of the economic climate.Build trust with investors through transparency, consistent communication, and a proven track record.Connect with Ben Reinberg:breinberg@alliancecgc.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/benreinberg/https://www.facebook.com/TheRealBenReinberg/https://www.instagram.com/therealbenreinberg/https://x.com/realbenreinberghttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN-VuewtdVrFwlOrTsNbxGAhttps://www.tiktok.com/@therealbenreinberg?lang=en

Wilson Zehr is an entrepreneur, academic and marketing strategist with more than 25 years in technology and telecommunications behind him, across six large-scale startups and over $60 million raised in venture funding. He runs Zairmail, a platform that automates the production and delivery of physical mail, and he teaches marketing, entrepreneurship and business strategy as an assistant professor at Eastern Oregon University, where he launched the Entrepreneurship Club to support student founders. Key Discussion Themes: • From compilers to executive leadership, five or six years as a software engineer, then marketing, business development and the corner office across six startups • Why moving into marketing broke his relationship with the to-do list, and how he learned to choose who was going to be disappointed each week • A CEO's world can change between eight and ten in the morning, which is why Monday cannot decide what Thursday looks like • Wilson's strategic planning theory, that what you can do today depends on resources you put in place months or years ago, and the youth football version of the same idea • Inside Zairmail, higher-volume mailers running 10,000 to 50,000 pieces a few times a week, 0% planned downtime, and routing mail electronically before it becomes physical • The 70/20/10 formula for direct response, 70% list, 20% offer, 10% creative, and why data has a shelf life • Referrals as the quiet engine behind most new business, even alongside a weekly newsletter going to 280,000 small and medium businesses • The airplane oxygen mask and the lifeguard rule, two versions of the same advice about protecting your own capacity Listener Takeaway: The list will always be longer than the day, so the real work is deciding what gets your finite time. Protecting your own capacity is not selfishness. It is what lets you keep being useful to the people counting on you.

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Joe doesn't think that Will Howard has what it takes to be a franchise quarterback. He would be ok losing Howard to another team. It feels like a lock Mason Rudolph will also be on the team. Bob would not be surprised if Howard ends up on the practice squad. McCarthy said Joey Porter Jr. is at an impasse in contract talks. Bob thinks Asante Samuel Jr.'s stats prove he can be a very good corner for the Steelers.

Joe doesn't think that Will Howard has what it takes to be a franchise quarterback. He would be ok losing Howard to another team. Gerry Dulac of the Post-Gazette reported that Howard and Drew Allar will be on the roster. It feels like a lock Mason Rudolph will also be on the team. Bob would not be surprised if Howard ends up on the practice squad. Joe thinks Drew Allar is significantly more talented than Howard and would elevate him to the third quarterback to work with all season.

We live in a world that constantly tells us to do more, add more, and become more. Every New Year brings another list of goals, habits, and resolutions—all focused on adding something else to an already full plate.But what if lasting transformation isn't about doing more?In this episode, I share a refreshing perspective on why doing less, simplifying, and focusing on consistency is often the missing piece to creating real, sustainable change. Whether you're working on your relationship with food, your health, your finances, or your mindset, this conversation will help you shift from overwhelm to intentional action.You Already Know What to DoOne of the biggest myths in personal growth is believing you need more information.The truth?Most of us already know the basics:Eat more whole foods.Drink more water.Move your body.Prioritize sleep.Build strength.The challenge isn't a lack of knowledge—it's finding the permission to simplify and consistently follow through without overwhelming yourself.Consistency Beats IntensityTransformation doesn't happen because of one perfect week.It happens because of the small things you repeat over and over again.When we believe we have to change everything at once, our nervous system interprets that as stress. We feel behind, overwhelmed, and eventually give up.Instead, I encourage you to start with one small action that feels manageable today.Small wins create lasting momentum.Add Before You SubtractRather than focusing on what you need to eliminate, begin by asking:"What can I add that supports my health?"Instead of restricting foods or creating more rules, try:Adding more colorful vegetables.Drinking an extra glass of water.Taking a short walk.Creating one nourishing meal each day.This gentle approach builds confidence instead of triggering feelings of deprivation.Stop Tracking Calories—Start Tracking Your BodyInstead of measuring success by calories, macros, or the number on the scale, I invite you to pay attention to your body's own feedback.Three powerful indicators tell you whether your habits are supporting you:Your Mood – Are you feeling calmer, happier, and more emotionally regulated?Your Sleep – Are you sleeping more deeply and waking up feeling restored?Your Gut – How is your digestion? Are bloating and elimination improving?Your body gives you better data than any tracking app ever could.Focus on the Behavior, Not the FoodFood is rarely the real issue.The real work begins by identifying the behavior underneath the eating.Ask yourself:Is it nighttime snacking?Emotional eating?Stress eating?Binge eating?Every behavior is driven by a different internal experience—and often by different hormonal and nervous system responses.When you stop trying to control food and instead become curious about the behavior, you begin creating lasting change.Awareness Creates FreedomThe goal isn't perfection.The goal is awareness.The more connected you become to your body, your emotions, your thoughts, and your nervous system, the easier it becomes to make choices that genuinely support you.Download Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break Emotional and Binge Eating, and finally end the cycle of out-of-control eating: www.sherryshaban.comWork With Sherry Shaban:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call and start your journey to lasting change! www.sherryshabanfitness.com/clarityListen & SubscribeCatch more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube so you never miss an episode!Connect & Go DeeperJoin our Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with Sherry: www.sherryshaban.com/transformExplore more resources: www.makepeacewithfood.comShare Your TakeawayTag us on Instagram (@makepeacewithfoodofficial), Facebook (@MakePeaceWithFoodOfficial), TikTok (@sherryshaban), or LinkedIn (sherryshaban) and share your biggest insight from this episode!

In this episode of the Guns Podcast US, your hosts Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington dive into a critical, often ignored reality of the shooting world: the difference between buying gear and developing actual skill. We explore why new shooters—and even experienced ones—frequently fall into the trap of thinking they can buy their way to proficiency. From the common mistake of buying a gun before defining your mission, to the obsession with excessive accessories over fundamental techniques, we break down how to stop overcomplicating your training. Whether you're a beginner or a veteran, this conversation will help you refocus on what truly makes you a better shooter and how to cut through the industry noise to focus on what matters most. Key Takeaways ·         Don't confuse buying expensive equipment with developing core shooting skills. ·         Define your mission before purchasing a firearm to ensure it fits your actual needs. ·         Professional instruction drastically accelerates your learning curve compared to self-teaching. ·         Prioritize fundamental techniques over collecting excessive accessories or 'cool guy' gear. ·         Constant gear changes can be dangerous and detrimental to building muscle memory. ·         Avoid the trap of 'mag dumping' for fun; intentional practice leads to real improvement. ·         Acknowledge the difference between what you need and what you simply want. -- The GunsPodcastUS is presented by Holosun.

What does it actually take to become a wise, confident Christian dad—especially if you didn't have a great example growing up? Dr. Mark Moore, author of Wisdom 52: A Fifteen Minute Daily Guide Through Proverbs, joins Kent Evans and Lawson Brown for a practical conversation about biblical wisdom, fatherhood, insecurity, the father wound, and leading your family well. Mark shares openly about growing up with an imperfect father, struggling for decades with insecurity, and learning that professional success can never replace confidence rooted in God the Father. He also explains why dads need other godly men around them, how the wisdom of Proverbs is meant to be lived rather than simply learned, and why your greatest work will rarely be the work you do at your job. You'll hear practical encouragement for dads who want to: Overcome insecurity and "imposter syndrome" as a father Break unhealthy generational patterns Develop biblical wisdom and discernment Build stronger relationships with sons and daughters Stay connected with adult children Prioritize marriage and family over career Understand God as Father more deeply Become the kind of man their family can trust and follow   Mark also gives dads a simple challenge: tell your son you're proud of him, tell your daughter she's beautiful and worth fighting for, and make sure your wife knows she is a priority. Because your greatest work isn't at work. It's at home.   If you want to grow as a Christian father, husband, and man of God, this episode will give you biblical truth and practical wisdom you can put into action today. Learn it. Live it. Lead from a position of security—and go be a Father On Purpose.   Get Wisdom 52 on amazon: https://a.co/d/093caRwA   Want to shape the direction of the show this year?

After a twenty-year career as a business leader, he embarked on biblical Fatherhood ministry projects. He's appeared on television, radio, web outlets and podcasts. He's spoken at parenting and men's events, and authored four books. The first, Wise Guys: Unlocking Hidden Wisdom from the Men Around You, was written to help men learn how to find mentors and wise counsel. The latest, Don't Bench Yourself: How to Stay in the Game Even When You Want to Quit, aims to help dads stay present in their roles as fathers and husbands even when they feel like giving up. Kent's life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married thirty years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky.   Lawson Brown is husband to his high school sweetheart, a father of two young adult daughters, has been a business leader since 1995, and is a former Marine. He served as a small group leader for teenage boys for many years, helped start the Christian media ministry City on a Hill Productions, then later Sanctuary – a new church in Kennesaw, GA – where he served as its leader for Men's Ministry. Lawson's journey of faith has always been centered in a grounding from his wife, Audrey, and supported throughout by many men whom he's found as brothers along the way. His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.  

Half Time Is Over: Finish 2026 Strong Time is ticking away on 2026 and it might feel like you have just over 4 months left in the year, you really only have 3. The whistle blew on June 30th, and now is the time to take action if you want to impact what remains of 2026. Most leaders spend August telling themselves there's plenty of time, but November and December already belong to holidays, budget season, and year-end close. That leaves August, September, and October as the window where the work actually happens. This is the halftime audit for anyone responsible for a team, a customer experience, or a budget. Special shout out to all the campuses opening this week in higher education - thanks for welcoming the student back and creating a place where they can feel like they belong. Let's talk about the halftime audit - customers, teams, strategy, and you. This is how you will crush the rest of the year. In this episode: • Why role clarity rather than motivation is the quiet drag on your team's performance right now • Prioritize quality recognition and coaching around your most important priorities • Focus on what matters most going into year end - you can't tackle everything, so focus on key priorities with impact • Decide what you'll focus on, what needs to be removed from your list, and what gets pushed to 2027   Perfect for: hospitality leaders, business owners, CEOS, COOs, CX/EX professionals, operational managers, retail and service teams, training and development leaders, and anyone responsible for people and performance (and sales growth).

Episode Summary Do you really need a calcium supplement—and if so, which type is best? In this episode, Debi Robinson welcomes Adrienne Bitar, food studies scholar and co-founder of Seen Nutrition, to discuss one of the most misunderstood topics in bone health: calcium supplementation. Together they explore the differences between food-based calcium and conventional calcium supplements, the importance of bioavailability, common misconceptions about fortified foods, and why calcium should always be considered within the larger context of whole-body bone health. What You'll Learn Why calcium is essential for healthy bones The difference between dietary calcium and supplemental calcium What "bioavailability" means Why the food matrix matters Calcium carbonate vs. food-based calcium Common digestive issues associated with some calcium supplements How fortified foods differ from naturally calcium-rich foods Why blood calcium doesn't accurately reflect bone calcium The importance of getting calcium from food whenever possible Why calcium is only one piece of lifelong bone health Action Steps Review how much calcium you're already getting from food. Prioritize calcium-rich whole foods whenever possible. Read ingredient labels on fortified foods. Consider bioavailability when evaluating calcium products. Support digestion to improve nutrient absorption. Remember that strong bones require more than calcium alone. Debi's Takeaway Calcium matters—but how your body absorbs and uses it matters even more. Supporting your bones starts with whole foods, healthy digestion, and daily lifestyle habits that allow nutrients to do their job.

Our dear friends invited us to an event this weekend in LA… they are partnering with Gary Brecka to build Ultimate Longevity Centers which will bring treatments and testing that just hasn't been easily accessible before now. I believe the way we look at aging is outdated and I'm going to share the biggest take aways I got from his on stage message and chatting with him one on one. We are talking about very practical starting points and Gary Brecka's actual morning health routine. Stop waiting until something is wrong to start taking care of your body. We have been taught this idea that getting older automatically means getting weaker, having less energy, gaining weight, losing muscle, sleeping worse, becoming more anxious, needing more medications and eventually developing all of the diseases that "run in our family." Gary challenges a lot of that thinking. His message is essentially… What if we became obsessed with keeping our bodies functioning incredibly well for as long as possible? What if instead of asking, "How do I treat disease once I have it?" we asked, "How do I create a body that is incredibly difficult for disease to thrive in?" And then there's the longevity piece that completely fascinates me. Gary believes we're entering a period where medicine, AI, biological data and longevity research are going to advance so rapidly that lifespan could look radically different in the future. Maybe 120. Maybe beyond. We don't know. But what we do know is that we need to keep ourselves healthy enough NOW to benefit from whatever becomes possible later. So today's episode is about doing the things that give you the strongest, healthiest, most capable body possible. I've been listening to Gary Brecka talk about health, longevity, anxiety, genetics, sleep, sunlight, oxygen, muscle, bloodwork and what he believes is coming next in longevity science. THE BIG IDEA: YOUR HEALTH IS BUILT EVERY DAY One of my biggest takeaways from Gary is that health isn't something we deal with when there's a problem. It's something we're building every single day. Your sleep last night matters. What you do when you wake up matters. Whether you move your body matters. Whether you maintain muscle matters. Your metabolic health matters. Your stress matters. Your relationships matter. Your nutrition matters. Your environment matters. And individually, none of these things feels life-changing. But repeated for years and decades… they become your life. Gary describes his routine as simple, portable and repeatable. I LOVE that. Because the best health routine isn't the $100,000 biohacking setup. It's the one you'll actually do every day. HABIT #1: HYDRATE BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE Gary starts his morning with water and minerals. One version of his routine is a large glass of room-temperature water with mineral salt and sometimes lemon. His current routine also frequently includes mineral salt, hydrogen water and essential amino acids. Wake up and hydrate. You've just spent roughly eight hours without drinking anything. Don't make coffee your first liquid of the day. Put water next to your bathroom sink. Put it next to your coffee machine. Make it automatic. Gary likes mineral salt because sodium and other minerals participate in fluid balance and normal nerve and muscle function. HABIT #2: GET OUTSIDE FIRST THING Gary says to get outside within the first part of your morning and get natural outdoor light into your eyes. His routine generally calls for about 10 minutes outside. Morning light helps tell your brain: It's daytime. Start the clock. Light is one of the strongest environmental signals for the circadian system. Properly timed morning light can shift circadian timing earlier and increase daytime alertness. And I love thinking of sleep this way: Your good night's sleep starts in the morning. We tend to think sleep health starts when we crawl into bed. But your body has been receiving signals all day telling it when to be awake and when to prepare for sleep. HABIT #3: BREATHE ON PURPOSE Gary talks about oxygen constantly. His personal morning practice has included three rounds of deep breathing followed by breath holds. And this connects to another thing we've been talking about: Anxiety. I love the idea that when you feel anxious, you shouldn't immediately decide: "I'm an anxious person." Anxiety is a state your nervous system is experiencing. Sometimes your thoughts are driving your physiology. And sometimes your physiology can amplify anxious thoughts. Either way, changing the physical state can sometimes help change the mental state. Research on structured breathwork has found modest improvements in stress and anxiety, although it isn't a cure-all and the quality of studies varies. HABIT #4: GIVE YOUR BRAIN SILENCE Gary often combines his morning breathing with quiet, gratitude and reflection. He has described sitting quietly for around 10 minutes, looking toward the horizon or closing his eyes and thinking about gratitude. (PodScripts (https://podscripts.co/podcasts/the-ultimate-human-with-gary-brecka/246-gary-brecka-answers-googles-most-searched-questions-on-his-diet-wellness-and-lifestyle?utm_source=chatgpt.com)) Think about how different this is from what most of us do. Eyes open. Phone. Email. Instagram. News. Text messages. Stress. Other people's priorities. And we wonder why we feel overstimulated. TRY THIS: Before consuming everybody else's thoughts… Have some of your own. What am I grateful for? What matters today? Who needs me today? How do I want to feel today? What is actually important? PRACTICAL VERSION: Five minutes. That's it. No phone. No podcast. No input. Just quiet. HABIT #5: USE CONTROLLED DISCOMFORT Cold exposure is another major Brecka habit. If he has access to a cold plunge, he uses it. When traveling, he has said a cold shower works too. But I think there is a bigger lesson here than whether everybody needs to buy a cold plunge. Stop designing your entire life around comfort. Human beings are unbelievably adaptable. Exercise is stress. Heat is stress. Cold is stress. Fasting is stress. Challenging your brain is stress. The key is appropriate amounts of stress followed by recovery. HABIT #6: MOVE EARLY Gary includes movement in his morning routine. But here's what I love: It doesn't need to be a full workout. Walk. Stretch. Squat. Lift. Do yoga. Go outside. Movement tells your body: We're alive. We're using this machine today. And then keep moving after the morning is over. One exceptionally practical habit is walking after meals. Instead of finishing dinner and immediately sitting on the couch… WALK FOR 10 MINUTES. Moving skeletal muscle after eating can help the body handle glucose. You don't need workout clothes. You don't need a gym. You don't even need to sweat. Walk around your neighborhood. Walk your dog. Walk while you're on a phone call. ONE OF THE EASIEST HEALTH RULES: Eat → walk. HABIT #7: BUILD MUSCLE LIKE YOUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT This is where I think longevity conversations get really practical. MUSCLE IS NOT JUST ABOUT LOOKING GOOD. Maintaining muscle becomes increasingly important as we age. Resistance training is one of the most powerful non-drug strategies available for preserving and building skeletal muscle. Losing muscle eventually affects: strength balance mobility independence your ability to recover from illness your ability to do normal life You're not building your 2026 body. You're building your 2056 body. HABIT #8: PRIORITIZE PROTEIN AND REAL FOOD- avoid processed foods Gary emphasizes protein and essential amino acids because preserving lean tissue is a major part of his longevity philosophy. The research strongly supports resistance training for preserving muscle, while evidence regarding how much additional benefit comes from protein supplementation specifically is more mixed. HABIT #9: PROTECT YOUR METABOLIC HEALTH I think this deserves WAY more attention. We obsess over weight. Gary talks much more about metabolic health. There is a difference. Weight is one number. Metabolic health includes things like: blood glucose insulin sensitivity blood pressure blood lipids waist circumference fitness body composition Instead of only asking: "How much do I weigh?" Ask: "How well is my body functioning?" Someone can lose weight while losing muscle. Someone can be thin and still have poor metabolic health. PRACTICAL HABITS: Strength train. Walk. Walk after meals. Eat mostly whole foods. Get enough sleep. Maintain healthy body composition. Reduce constant snacking if it isn't serving you. Know your basic health numbers. THE GOAL ISN'T SKINNY. The goal is metabolically capable. HABIT #10: TEST… DON'T JUST GUESS This might be one of my favorite parts of Brecka's philosophy. Stop guessing about everything. If you're exhausted all the time… investigate. If you're unusually anxious… investigate. If your sleep has suddenly changed… investigate. If your energy has disappeared… investigate. If your hormones feel completely different… investigate. If you feel awful despite doing "everything right"… investigate. Don't immediately decide: "I'm getting old." "This runs in my family." "I'm just an anxious person." "My metabolism sucks." "This is just how I am." ASK BETTER QUESTIONS. Could something modifiable be contributing? sleep nutrient deficiencies thyroid function iron status medications hormones metabolic health stress alcohol caffeine environment psychological health This does NOT mean ordering every exotic test on the internet. It means becoming curious about your own biology. HABIT #11: DON'T TURN ANXIETY INTO YOUR IDENTITY This is worth repeating because I think this is such an important mental shift. Instead of: "I AM anxious." Try: "I'm experiencing anxiety." Those are very different statements. One is an identity. One is a temporary condition worth investigating. Gary's message leans heavily toward investigating biology. He talks about things like methylation pathways and MTHFR. There are legitimate genetic influences on anxiety. But anxiety is complex. Research suggests anxiety disorders arise through a combination of genetic vulnerability and environmental influences, not one single "anxiety gene." (PubMed (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15699295/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)) So I would approach it from ALL DIRECTIONS: Calm the body. Investigate the biology. Work on the thoughts. Breathwork. Sleep. Exercise. Less overstimulation. Healthy relationships. Therapy when needed. Medical evaluation when something feels physiologically off. Nutrition. Less caffeine when appropriate. Time outdoors. Don't choose between: "It's psychological." or "It's biological." It can be both. HABIT #12: GENETICS ARE INFORMATION… NOT ALWAYS DESTINY This is another Gary Brecka concept that I think is incredibly empowering when we phrase it accurately. People say: "Diabetes runs in my family." "Anxiety runs in my family." "Heart disease runs in my family." "Autoimmune disease runs in my family." And we can start thinking: Well… I guess that's coming for me too. But genetics often represent susceptibility rather than certainty. Your genes can increase risk. Your environment can increase or decrease risk. Your behaviors matter. Your metabolic health matters. Your exposures matter. Your entire biological environment matters. So instead of thinking: "My family gets this disease." Think: "I may have inherited a vulnerability. What parts of that vulnerability can I modify?" THAT is empowering. Important distinction: Some diseases absolutely are caused by inherited genetic mutations. So we should not say: "Genetic diseases aren't real." They absolutely are. The better message is: Genes can load the gun. They don't always pull the trigger. And with many complex chronic diseases, what ultimately happens involves an interaction between genetics and environment. HABIT #13: STOP THINKING OF SLEEP AS LOST PRODUCTIVITY Sleep is when your body gets to repair. And Brecka's evening routine reflects this. He emphasizes regular sleep, reducing stimulation late at night and setting up the next morning by protecting the night before. My favorite way to think about sleep: Tomorrow starts tonight. Stop trying to squeeze another hour out of your day if it destroys tomorrow. Decide when you're going to bed BEFORE you're tired. Dim things down. Get off your phone. Stop working. Let the nervous system receive a signal that the day is ending. Pick a bedtime and protect it the same way you'd protect an important meeting. NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT LIVING TO 120 The speed of advancement is changing. AI can analyze enormous amounts of biological data. Diagnostics are improving. Scientists are studying the actual biology of aging rather than treating aging purely as an unavoidable decline. Researchers are investigating cellular senescence, epigenetics, regenerative medicine and other mechanisms associated with biological aging. Gary believes these developments could eventually change human lifespan dramatically. And his argument is essentially: Stay alive and stay healthy long enough to benefit from what's coming. That hit me HARD. Because imagine being 75 in the future… But instead of arriving at 75: metabolically sick weak frail sedentary cognitively struggling carrying multiple preventable chronic illnesses You arrive: strong metabolically healthy active engaged cognitively sharp sleeping well maintaining muscle surrounded by people you love THAT is the bridge. Not: "How do I live forever today?" But: "How healthy can I be when tomorrow's medicine arrives?" DON'T JUST CHASE LIFESPAN. CHASE HEALTHSPAN. I don't want to simply exist until I'm 120. I want to LIVE. I want to: travel walk everywhere lift my suitcase play with grandchildren hike swim think clearly learn new things have great conversations have energy be independent laugh have purpose wake up excited THAT is longevity. Not adding years at the end where you can't live. Adding life to the years. WHAT SHOULD WE ACTUALLY DO RIGHT NOW? If you took this entire episode and boiled it down into a daily longevity checklist… MORNING Hydrate. Get outside. Get natural morning light. Breathe intentionally. Spend a few minutes in quiet. Think about gratitude. Move your body. Use cold exposure if you enjoy it and it's appropriate for you. Don't immediately flood your brain with stress. DURING THE DAY Eat nutrient-dense real food. Prioritize protein. Strength train consistently. Walk. Walk after meals. Stay metabolically healthy. Maintain muscle. Build meaningful relationships. Have purpose. Keep learning. Get outside. NIGHT Stop eating mindlessly late into the evening. Reduce stimulation. Get off the phone. Give yourself a predictable bedtime. Sleep. THROUGHOUT YOUR LIFE Know your numbers. Do appropriate preventive screening. Investigate symptoms rather than ignoring them. Don't automatically assume something is "just aging." Don't automatically assume family history means destiny. Continue learning as science changes. Protect your muscle. Protect your metabolism. Protect your brain. Protect your relationships. Protect your sleep. THE SIMPLEST VERSION OF EVERYTHING GARY BRECKA IS SAYING 1. Get sunlight. 2. Breathe. 3. Hydrate. 4. Move. 5. Build muscle. 6. Eat real nutrient-dense food. 7. Protect your metabolism. 8. Sleep like it matters. 9. Challenge your body sometimes. 10. Investigate problems instead of simply accepting them. 11. Don't confuse genetic risk with guaranteed destiny. 12. Don't turn anxiety into your identity. 13. Build relationships and a life that gives you purpose. 14. Stay unbelievably healthy while longevity science continues advancing. And maybe most importantly… DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE SICK TO BECOME INTERESTED IN YOUR HEALTH. I learned that every single thing that gives me the best chance of being healthy at 120 also gives me a better life at 45. Getting sunlight tomorrow morning makes tomorrow better. Sleeping tonight makes tomorrow better. Building muscle makes this decade better. Eating well makes today better. Getting outside makes today better. Putting my phone down makes today better. Managing anxiety makes today better. Having people I love around me makes today better. So this isn't really an episode about trying to cheat death. It's about refusing to sleepwalk through your health. Your body is the vehicle that carries you through every single experience you're hoping to have. Every trip. Every adventure. Every business idea. Every dinner. Every workout. Every moment with your kids. Every future grandkid. Everything. So take ridiculously good care of it. And instead of looking at aging and thinking… "Well, I guess everything starts going downhill from here…" What if we thought completely differently? What if our goal was: I want to be stronger next year. Healthier next year. More metabolically healthy next year. More informed next year. More capable next year. And then do it again. And again. And again. For decades. Let's make the goal to be fully alive for as much of it as humanly possible. That's the health lesson I'm taking from Gary Brecka. Don't wait for the future of longevity medicine. Build the kind of body today that's ready for it.

In this episode of the Shared Practices Podcast, host Caitlin Embree interviews Josh Wallace, president of IT Harbor, to discuss why specialized IT support is a critical component of any successful dental organization. Josh shares how IT Harbor naturally transitioned into the dental sector after assisting with new practice builds, choosing to remain vendor-agnostic to provide the best, most future-driven recommendations for their clients.Because modern dental practices rely heavily on nuanced technology—such as 3D modeling, CBCTs, and specialized scanners—relying on a generic IT company can lead to mismanaged data cabling, outdated systems, and massive operational overwhelm. Josh breaks down how a remote-first IT approach can resolve 98% of backend problems before the clinic even notices, while still offering robust, nationwide on-site support.Here is your guide to protecting your practice and leveraging the future of dental technology:Defend Against Phishing: Humans are the biggest vulnerability in any network. Protect your dental practice by utilizing high-end firewalls and conducting ongoing training to prevent staff—and doctors—from clicking on masked emails or fake login prompts.Leverage AI for Productivity: Stop letting your technology gather dust. Implement AI-assisted charting and voice-dictated perio notes to speed up your workflow and save your clinical team hours of administrative frustration.Build Trust With AI Imaging: Patients can sometimes be skeptical of a doctor's treatment plan, but utilizing AI software to analyze radiographs provides an objective second opinion that builds instant patient trust.Prioritize the Patient Experience: The modern consumer expects high-tech, fast, and frictionless service. Failing to update your dental technology over the next five to eight years will likely cause patients to leave for a more advanced, spa-like competitor.Demand Better Support: Ensure your IT provider offers a dedicated engineer (e.g., IT Harbor assigns one engineer per 30 clients) so you are not forced to call a random 1-800 number every time your dental systems crash.Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

This week we're breaking down a 75-year Harvard study that found the biggest predictor of a successful adult by age 25 wasn't grades, test scores, or extracurriculars, it was whether they did chores starting at age three or four. We get into why that is, plus three rules for making chores actually work in your house (hint: don't pay for them). We also share an easy first-date hack from Logan Ury (whose new Netflix show, The Later Daters, we mentioned last week): ditch the small talk and jump straight into the middle of a story instead. It works for any nerve-wracking new-people situation, not just dates. Plus, a simple nightly ritual called C.A.P. (Celebrate, Appreciate, Prioritize) to close out your day, a few decluttering tips for a clearer mind, and some sentences that we can't stop thinking about. Oh, and we finally watched "A Toxic Love Story" after all our talk about it, and we have thoughts. Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!
