In this episode of The Dental Boardroom Podcast, host Wes Read continues his series on common financial mistakes dentists make, with a deep dive into tax planning gaps that often lead to paying unnecessary taxes.Wes explains how many dentists rely on reactive tax filing instead of proactive tax planning, causing them to miss powerful deductions and make poor timing decisions. He breaks down practical, real-world strategies such as the Pass-Through Entity (PTE) tax election; overlooked deductions like kids on payroll, home office, vehicles, meals, and travel; and why depreciation must always align with cash flow.The episode also highlights the risks of overly aggressive tax strategies, why meeting with your CPA only once a year isn't enough, and how a CFO-style, proactive approach can significantly accelerate a dentist's path to financial independence.Key Topics CoveredCommon tax planning mistakes dentists makeHow the Pass-Through Entity (PTE) tax election worksWhy the timing of tax payments mattersLow-hanging tax deductions many dentists missKids vs. spouse on payroll (and when it makes sense)Home office, car, meals, and travel deductionsRisks of aggressive tax strategies like misused R&D creditsProper vs. improper use of depreciation (Section 179)The difference between reactive CPAs and proactive, CFO-style planningKey TakeawaysPTE tax election is a major opportunity: Dentists in high-tax states can significantly reduce federal taxes if payments are made correctly and on time.Cash timing determines deductions: Tax deductions only apply in the year money actually leaves your account.Small deductions compound: When combined, kids on payroll, home office, vehicle use, meals, and travel can create meaningful tax savings.Spouse on payroll requires retirement planning: Without a 401(k) or defined benefit plan, it can increase taxes instead of reducing them.Depreciation isn't free money: Misusing Section 179 can create future cash flow problems.Avoid crossing the line: Aggressive or poorly justified strategies increase audit risk.Tax planning follows cash flow planning: Taxes are a subset of cash flow—not the other way around.Proactive advice matters: Dentists benefit most from advisors who specialize in dentistry and meet multiple times per year.CFO-style planning accelerates wealth:...

Being proactive in AEC has always been the goal but until now, it's been hard to achieve at scale. In this episode of Bridging the Gap, host Todd Weyandt is joined by David Spergel of Graitec to explore how AI is reshaping workflows to help project teams anticipate risk, surface intent earlier, and make better decisions across the project lifecycle. The conversation dives into how shared project artifacts, like drawings and PDFs, are evolving into intelligent layers that connect design teams, project managers, and the field. Rather than reacting to issues after they appear, AI-powered workflows help teams reduce ambiguity, improve communication, and move work forward with greater clarity and confidence. This episode offers a hopeful, practical look at how AI supports people, not by replacing expertise, but by enabling more proactive, aligned, and predictable project delivery. You'll Learn: How AI workflows are helping project teams shift from reactive problem-solving to proactive decision-making Why shared project artifacts like drawings and PDFs are evolving into intelligent layers that connect design, construction, and the field How surfacing intent and context earlier reduces coordination gaps, RFIs, and late-stage surprises Ways AI improves communication and collaboration without replacing human expertise or forcing new workflows What proactive, AI-enabled project delivery looks like and why it leads to more predictable outcomes   MEET OUR GUEST David Spergel is an AEC technology leader with deep experience helping design and construction teams improve how they collaborate, communicate, and execute projects using digital tools. His background spans software enablement, workflow optimization, and customer-facing strategy, with a strong focus on how platforms like Bluebeam support real-world project delivery. David brings a practical, people-first perspective to emerging technologies, translating AI and data-driven workflows into clear, adoptable processes that help teams reduce risk, break down silos, and make better decisions across the project lifecycle. TODD TAKES AI isn't a threat. It's a force multiplier for people. In AEC, AI isn't replacing expertise. It's removing the tedious, time-consuming work that pulls teams away from judgment, creativity, and problem-solving. When the noise is reduced, people can focus on decisions that actually move projects forward. The industry's real opportunity is turning shared artifacts into shared understanding. Drawings, markups, and documents already hold enormous intent and context. When that information becomes easier to interpret and act on, teams spend less time searching for answers and more time aligning across design, construction, and the field. Better data leads to better conversations and better outcomes. When information is surfaced proactively instead of reactively, collaboration improves. Fewer misunderstandings, fewer late surprises, and clearer accountability create momentum toward predictability, trust, and stronger project delivery.   Thanks for listening!

They discuss practical daily habits to improve posture, the necessity of preparing the body for physical demands, and the shift from a reactive to a proactive approach in health. The conversation concludes with actionable tips for listeners to enhance their posture and overall well-being.   Posture is about how you feel in your body. Good posture can reduce aches and pains. Emotional state can influence physical posture. Personal experiences can shape our understanding of posture. Daily habits can significantly improve posture. Awareness of body positions is crucial for health. Proactive health practices are more effective than reactive ones. Strength, mobility, and agility are key components of fitness. Simple movements can lead to significant improvements in posture. The environment we expose our bodies to affects our posture.

In this episode (#316) we focus on the critical role of proactive honesty in healing relationships impacted by addiction, betrayal, and trauma. Proactive honesty goes far beyond “not lying”—it means leading with truth rather than waiting to be confronted, asked the right question, or forced into disclosure. When honesty becomes reactive instead of proactive, trust erodes, emotional safety collapses, and partners lose the ability to make informed choices. We emphasize that honesty struggles are not limited to addicts; partners can also drift into dishonesty through self-silencing, conflict avoidance, or fear of toxic reactions.We examine the many reasons honesty breaks down, including fear of conflict, shame, habitual deception, emotional dysregulation, and attempts to manage or control others' perceptions. While these patterns may be understandable survival strategies, they are never harmless. Dishonesty—whether through outright lies, partial truths, minimization, or “everything's fine” responses—undermines accountability, intimacy, and recovery. We explain why clarity equals respect, why intent does not erase impact, and how avoiding the full truth often creates repeated betrayals rather than preventing harm.Finally, we outline what practicing proactive honesty actually looks like: catching dishonesty early, naming wrongs clearly, telling the whole truth, acknowledging impact without defensiveness, expressing accountability without shame, backing words with measurable actions, and allowing the other person's response without trying to control it. We also stress the importance of choosing appropriate environments for difficult conversations—without using that as an excuse to deceive. Proactive honesty is uncomfortable and challenging, but it is essential for rebuilding trust, restoring integrity, and creating relationships rooted in safety, authenticity, and real connection.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:   What Does "Proactive Honesty" in Your Daily Life & Relationships Look Like?Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

#752 What if the fastest way to more freedom, better clients, and a healthier life isn't working harder — but setting better boundaries? In this episode, host Brien Gearin welcomes back builder and podcast host Mark Williams (Mark D. Williams Custom Homes / The Curious Builder Podcast) for a powerful conversation centered on one core idea: boundaries create freedom. Mark shares how setting clear expectations — like communication protocols, protected meeting times, and even “no texting after hours” language written directly into client contracts — creates healthier client relationships, better projects, and a more sustainable business. The two also dig into personal boundaries at home, especially around phones and screen time, and why protecting your time, energy, and presence isn't selfish — it's what allows you to show up at your best for your business, your family, and yourself! What we discuss with Mark: + Boundaries create freedom + Client communication rules + No texting after hours + Protecting family time + Avoiding entrepreneurial burnout + Confidence in setting limits + Better clients through boundaries + Proactive communication systems + Wellness and performance + Leading by example Thank you, Mark!

professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, we explore how proactive detection surpasses reactive troubleshooting in cybersecurity. For those preparing for their CompTIA exam, understanding the subtle clues and quiet anomalies attackers leave behind is essential for developing strong IT skills and excelling in tech exam prep. We dive deep into the critical indicators that help you detect security compromises early, providing practical knowledge essential for your technology education and IT certification journey. Join us as we equip you with expert insights to sharpen your detection abilities and enhance your competence in protecting systems effectively.We walk through the behaviors that matter: viruses that hitch a ride on clicks, worms that paint the network with unexplained traffic, and fileless attacks that live in memory and borrow admin tools like PowerShell and scheduled tasks. You'll learn how to spot spyware by the aftermath of credential misuse, recognize RATs and backdoors by their steady beaconing to unknown IPs, and use contradictions—like tools disagreeing about running processes—as a signal for rootkits. We also draw a sharp line between ransomware's loud chaos and cryptojacking's quiet drain on your CPU and fan.Zooming out, we map network and application signals: certificate warnings and duplicate MACs that hint at man-in-the-middle, DNS mismatches that suggest cache poisoning, and log patterns that betray SQL injection, replay abuse, or directory traversal. Along the way, we talk about building Security+ instincts through scaffolding—A+ for OS and hardware intuition, Network+ for protocol fluency, and Security+ for attacker behavior—so indicators make sense the moment you see them.If you want a sharper eye for subtle threats and a stronger shot at your Security+ exam, this guide will train your attention on the tells adversaries can't fully hide. Subscribe, share with a teammate who handles triage, and leave a review with your favorite indicator to watch—we'll feature the best ones in a future show.Support the showArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

One famous cartoon featured two vultures sitting on a fence; one turned to the other and said, "I am sick of waiting, let's kill something." When it comes to preventing cyberattacks, the federal government is well known for a defensive approach. They have security systems, air gap systems, and even a zero-trust approach. This defensive approach is essential but may not give the federal government a complete view of how to protect data. Today, we sat down with Chris Jones, Nightwing's Chief Technical Officer. He outlines some of the characteristics of a concept called "offense informs defense."  This is a method that Nightwing has developed through over 40 years of working with federal technology leaders. For example, they developed their Counter Trace service, which uses offensive cyber strategies to defend critical infrastructure. The service involves proactively hunting for vulnerabilities, identifying access points, and analyzing digital evidence to expose cyberattacks. During the interview, Jones mentions that the GSA has received this approach well. In fact, Nightwing recently won all six GSA Highly Adaptive Security Services categories. These handle security aspects like Penetration Testing, Incident Response, Risk Assessments, Cyber Hunt, and High Value Asses Assessments.  Jones emphasizes the importance of initiative-taking, cybersecurity, AI integration, and collaboration across agencies to adapt to protect federal data.

Most of us want to live well. We want good relationships, peace in our decisions, and fewer regrets—but nobody really teaches us how to do that. That's where the book of Proverbs comes in. Proverbs isn't a story and it's not a list of religious rules. It's God's wisdom for real life. It talks about how we use our words, how we choose friends, how we handle money, anger, work, and temptation. Written mainly by King Solomon—one of the wisest people who ever lived—Proverbs was designed to train people, especially the young, in how life actually works. Proverbs shows us there are two paths we can walk: the way of wisdom or the way of foolishness. And the choices we make on those paths shape the lives we end up living. For the next 31 weeks we are going to study every chapter, every word and every truth that flows from the Book of Proverbs. There will be a few breaks through the next 31 weeks for stand alone messages, but by the end of 2026 our hope is that you walk in the ways of the wise and live well.

Feeling Safe vs Being Safe in Therapy - How to Reference Non-Academic Resources In Episode 361 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly explore three vital topics for students and practitioners of counselling and psychotherapy: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', Rory and Ken examine managing isolation in counselling practice, highlighting why counsellors may experience isolation, the impact of emotional labour, and the importance of maintaining professional connections. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with psychotherapist Claire Ratcliffe about the subtle but essential distinction between feeling safe and being safe in therapy, and what this means for clients and therapeutic practice. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken offer practical guidance on how to reference non-academic resources in academic assignments. Managing Isolation in Counselling Practice [starts at 03:29 mins] Rory and Ken reflect on managing isolation in counselling practice, exploring the isolating nature of counselling work and how the emotional labour involved can take a toll if not proactively addressed. Counsellors often work alone - especially in private or online practice - reducing professional interaction. Confidentiality prevents therapists from sharing day-to-day experiences, contributing to feelings of disconnection. Emotional labour builds up over time and, without an outlet, can lead to burnout or compassion fatigue. Proactive self-care, social hobbies, and peer engagement are essential for maintaining emotional balance. Supervision and CPD groups offer vital opportunities for connection and support. Personal development through reflective practice helps therapists process isolation and stay grounded. Feeling Safe vs Being Safe in Therapy [starts at 19:00 mins] Claire Ratcliffe joins Rory to unpack the nuanced difference between being in a safe environment and actually feeling safe enough to engage in therapy. A therapist may offer a structurally safe space, but clients may not feel safe due to past trauma or relational history. Feeling safe is a nervous system response developed through consistent, attuned, and non-defensive relational experiences. Transference may cause clients to project past harm onto the therapist - naming and exploring this supports healing. Emotional safety allows clients to express discomfort or anger - a sign of growth and nervous system regulation. Therapists must do their own reflective and supervision work to hold client projections non-defensively. The therapeutic process itself may not always feel safe. Even with a safe therapist, clients need time to build tolerance to emotional vulnerability. How to Reference Non-Academic Resources [starts at 44:52 mins] Ken and Rory explain how to correctly use and cite non-academic resources in counselling training assignments. Academic work should be referenced using primary academic sources (e.g. Rogers, Freud), not interpretations by tutors or websites. Resources like Counselling Tutor are useful for understanding theory but should not be cited as the original source. Counselling Tutor provides full reference lists for its materials, supporting students in finding and citing academic texts. There are exceptions: students can cite guest experts in CPD lectures, or books authored by Counselling Tutor. A dedicated reference guide is available at https://counsellingtutor.com/reference/ Understanding referencing standards supports academic integrity and successful assignment writing.

Most people treat taxes like an unavoidable expense. The wealthy treat them like a strategy. In this episode, I break down how high net worth individuals and families legally and ethically use taxes to build wealth instead of losing it. We walk through the mindset shift, the incentives built into the tax code, and the four biggest strategies the wealthy use to lower their effective tax rates while compounding assets. This is not about loopholes or shortcuts. It is about understanding how the system works and using it intentionally. If you are tired of reacting to taxes and want to start planning ahead, this episode is your starting point.

They design around them." "Taxes are not the enemy. Ignorance is." "Playing offense with money starts with understanding the rules." Closing If this episode gave you clarity, share it with someone still paying taxes blindly. You do not need to cheat. You do not need to be ultra rich. You just need to learn the system and use it intentionally.

In today's episode, I sit down with Ryan Heath, Founder of Trustpoint Legal, to explore what a modern “Family Office 2.0” actually looks like and why the old models are falling short. We talk about how family offices are evolving from static wealth preservation vehicles into operating businesses built around people, purpose, and multi-generational decision making. Ryan shares lessons from working closely with families navigating liquidity events, succession, and generational transitions, and why flexibility and intentional design matter more than rigid structures. The conversation centers on treating the family office as a living organization, not just a collection of legal documents. Many can relate to putting in strategic plans for their businesses, their health, etc.  What's funny is we often don't put the same planning into what's most important to us - our family.   Ryan is on a mission to help families change that. We discuss: What defines a Family Office 2.0 and how it differs from traditional family office models Why legacy, values, and human dynamics drive long-term outcomes more than tax efficiency How flexible mandates help families adapt as generations, priorities, and circumstances change The risks of poor communication and rushed planning during liquidity events or succession How intentional family meetings and shared mission statements strengthen multi-generational alignment This episode is especially valuable for founders and families rethinking how to structure wealth, leadership, and legacy in a way that actually works across generations.

The divorce rate in the church is brutal… and even the “good Christian marriages” are often passionless, disconnected, and living like roommates.Your marriage isn't just suffering from communication problems. A lot of the time, it's suffering because your faith has trained you to be safe. Polite prayers. Low-risk obedience. Zero authority. And then you come home and wonder why you feel timid, passive, bored… and why your wife can feel that void the moment you walk through the door.In this episode, I'm going to flip over a rock you may have never considered: there's a direct connection between how you treat Holy Spirit power (authority, miracles, boldness)… and how you show up as an attractive, confident, joy-filled husband. When you stop living in “if it's your will” faith—and you start living in Kingdom authority—you stop hovering like a puppy dog… and you start becoming dangerous again.

In this timely and hard-hitting episode, Dr. Dave Chatterjee is joined by Sandeep Pauddar—an accomplished global auditor with over 30 years of experience—to challenge a deeply entrenched misconception: that cybersecurity certifications and compliance are merely regulatory checkboxes. Instead, the conversation reframes compliance as a strategic asset—one that can strengthen trust, resilience, and competitive positioning in an era defined by AI, global regulations, and escalating cyber risk.Drawing on real-world breach examples, audit insights, and cross-industry comparisons, Pauddar explains why organizations that treat compliance reactively often pay a steep price—financially, operationally, and reputationally. Dr. Chatterjee integrates his Commitment–Preparedness–Discipline (CPD) governance framework to demonstrate how leadership mindset, continuous audit readiness, and disciplined execution transform certifications from defensive necessities into engines of strategic value.Together, they explore why leadership engagement—not regulatory pressure alone—determines compliance effectiveness, how audit culture can shift from adversarial to collaborative, and why proactive organizations outperform peers by embedding governance into everyday operations rather than scrambling after incidents occur.Time Stamps00:49 — Episode introduction and framing compliance as competitive firepower02:22 — Podar's professional background and global audit experience05:01 — Real-world consequences of non-compliance07:30 — Sector comparisons and leadership mindset gaps09:36 — Global regulatory approaches to cybersecurity and AI12:33 — Compliance overload and framework fatigue14:56 — Why audits fail to drive change16:10 — Shifting from adversarial to collaborative audits18:17 — Leadership's role in cybersecurity culture21:44 — Proactive vs. reactive compliance models23:54 — Leadership best practices for audit readiness25:45 — CPD framework applied to certifications29:37 — AI standards and proactive governance34:24 — Human risk, awareness, and phishing realities37:44 — Closing reflectionTo access and download the entire podcast summary with discussion highlights -https://www.dchatte.com/episode-98-beyond-certification-turning-compliance-into-competitive-firepower/Connect with Host Dr. Dave ChatterjeeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dchatte/ Website: https://dchatte.com/Books PublishedThe DeepFake ConspiracyCybersecurity Readiness: A Holistic and High-Performance ApproachArticles PublishedRamasastry, C. and Chatterjee, D.

They also discuss what has changed in the IR profession over time and what hasn't (but probably should) before suggesting changes you can make to drive impact immediately.—LINKS:Samuel Levenson on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/samlevenson/Jon Neitzell on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-neitzell/Arbor Advisory Group: www.arboradvisorygroup.com/Anduril Partners: https://www.andurilpartners.ai/CJ on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cj-gustafson-13140948/Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.com—RELATED EPISODES:Investor Relations as a Strategic Weapon: A Masterclasshttps://youtu.be/ac9xmURhAqE—TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Preview and Intro00:02:22 Welcome to Sam and Jon00:03:12 Linking Business Strategy and Communication00:05:01 Proactive vs. Reactive Investor Relations00:06:39 Tailoring the Message by Investor Type00:08:05 Audience Opportunity and Ideal Shareholders00:11:05 When the Investor Base No Longer Fits00:12:21 Shifting Investors as Industries Change00:13:16 Optionality Comes From Patient Shareholders00:14:40 Conveying Conviction Through Credibility00:17:03 Why Investor Days Build Trust00:18:02 Metrics Versus Storytelling in IR00:19:10 Choosing Metrics the Market Actually Rewards00:22:30 Valuation Disconnects and Investor Confusion00:23:17 Finding Metrics That Truly Drive Value00:25:33 Avoiding Bad Capital Allocation Decisions00:26:20 Disclose Versus Guide: Confidence Intervals00:27:35 Knowing What You Don't Know00:29:33 Science Versus Art in Storytelling00:33:11 When Algorithms Become Your Audience00:33:56 Passive Investing Now Dominates Markets00:35:16 Linking OKRs to Value-Driving KPIs00:36:42 Closing the Strategy-Metrics Feedback Loop00:38:07 When Investors Sense Operational Confidence00:39:47 Why IR Becomes Strategy Consulting00:41:28 Why IR Teams Stay Undersized00:43:23 Sam's Accidental Entry Into Investor Relations00:44:34 Mentorship Over Formal IR Training00:46:18 How Markets Outpaced IR Practices00:47:01 Investor Days Go Virtual00:49:34 Designing a High-Quality Earnings Call00:50:41 Investor Days as High-ROI Investments00:51:45 IR Websites as Investor Onramps00:53:42 World-Class Investor Day Examples00:54:20 Using AI to Prepare Investor Communications00:56:19 Building a Proactive IR 2.0 Strategy00:58:33 Why IR Requires Full Executive Buy-In01:00:51 Data Transfers Conviction to Investors01:03:31 Closing Reflections on Trust and Valuation#RunTheNumbersPodcast #InvestorRelations #CapitalMarkets #ValuationStrategy #CFOInsights This is a public episode.

Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Police Officer Attacked, Multiple Surgeries, Forced Retirement, Addiction, and an Inspiring Recovery. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform Brock Bevell never imagined that a single violent moment would change the entire trajectory of his life. A retired Mesa, Arizona police officer, Brock dedicated his career to public service, until a targeted act of violence ended his time on the job and set him on a painful, unexpected journey through addiction and recovery. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “She threw the truck into reverse and hit me,” Brock recalls. “In an instant, everything changed.” Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Career Cut Short by Violence While serving with the Mesa Police Department, Brock was seriously injured during a violent incident involving a vehicle. The attack caused devastating, career-ending injuries and required multiple surgeries. What followed was a long and grueling rehabilitation process, one familiar to many injured officers across the country. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. To manage the intense pain, Brock was prescribed opioid pain medication. Like countless patients recovering from serious injuries, he trusted the prescriptions meant to help him heal. Instead, they quietly became the beginning of a much deeper struggle. From Recovery to Addiction During months of surgeries and physical therapy, Brock developed a severe dependence on opioid painkillers. What started as medically prescribed relief slowly evolved into addiction. “I didn't recognize myself anymore,” Brock says. “My world became smaller and darker. I was surviving, not living.” Brock openly shares how addiction affected every part of his life, his relationships, his identity, and his sense of purpose after forced retirement from policing. His story reflects a reality many first responders face but few openly discuss. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Science Behind the Crisis Research underscores just how common Brock's experience is. A major study published in JAMA Internal Medicine by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine found that patients undergoing 11 common surgeries faced an increased risk of becoming chronic opioid users. Lead author Eric Sun, MD, PhD, explained: “For a lot of surgeries, there is a higher chance of getting hooked on painkillers.” The study defined chronic opioid use as filling 10 or more prescriptions or receiving more than a 120-day supply within a year after surgery. Patients undergoing knee surgery faced the highest risk, nearly five times that of nonsurgical patients, followed by gallbladder surgery. Importantly, the study did not suggest avoiding surgery, but emphasized the need for careful monitoring and alternative pain management strategies. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. The interview can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. Trauma, Policing, and Substance Use Law enforcement officers face unique occupational hazards, including repeated exposure to trauma. Studies show that substance use disorders, including alcohol and drug dependence, occur at higher rates among officers, particularly those experiencing psychological distress. In nationally representative data, more than half of men with lifetime PTSD also had a history of alcohol abuse or dependence. For police officers, these risks are compounded by work stress, injuries, and the cultural stigma surrounding mental health and asking for help. “We wear the uniform, but we're human,” Brock says. “And sometimes the damage doesn't show until it's almost too late.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Hitting Bottom and Choosing Recovery Brock's turning point came when he realized addiction had taken everything it could from him. With professional help, support, and unwavering determination, he entered recovery and committed to sobriety. “Recovery didn't give me my old life back,” he says. “It gave me a new one, one with purpose.” Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Today, Brock uses his experience to help others struggling with addiction, trauma, and life after law enforcement. His message is clear: recovery is possible, even after profound loss. Healing Beyond the Badge In the aftermath of violence and trauma, communities often look to police officers as symbols of strength. Yet officers themselves must also heal. Proactive wellness programs, mental health resources, and open conversations about addiction are critical, not just for officers, but for the communities they serve.

Mesa, located just east of Phoenix, is known for its deep history, from the ancient Hohokam culture to the modern city Brock once patrolled.

In this episode, we breaks down one of the most underestimated factors in ACL recovery: what happens before surgery even begins. As the end of the year approaches and more athletes rush into ACL surgery due to holidays, insurance deductibles, and downtime, this episode explores why preparation, not the surgery itself, is often the difference between smooth momentum and months of frustration. Drawing from hundreds of ACL athletes' experiences, we share the exact themes, systems, and mindset shifts that consistently lead to better early outcomes, quieter knees, and faster long-term progress. Whether you're pre-op, early post-op, or a clinician guiding athletes through this process, this episode reframes ACL surgery as a continuation of momentum, not a starting line, and shows why being proactive beats reactive every single time.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

We dive into an honest conversation with Roy Ward, CEO, President, and Founder of Pre-Game Athletics, on why he moved from a 20-year career in the reactive medical device industry to pioneer a proactive movement focused on preparing for peak performance. It's not about just "warming up"—it's about committing to a ritual that fuels you mentally and physically.In this episode, we challenge the idea of preparation as a forced habit, exploring the three-step process of making it a ritual you feel. Roy details how music integration and new sports tech wearables are central to this shift, helping entrepreneurs, athletes, and "movers" of all kinds optimize their performance without taking extra time out of their day.It's time to move beyond the Band-Aid fixes of a reactive lifestyle and embrace proactivity. Discover the secret sauce behind the Pre-Game community, the power of a "voluntary discomfort" ritual (sauna and cold plunge), and the vital role of recovery—because your recovery is the start of your warm-up for the next event.Roy's final message: "Appreciate every moment. Make the most of every moment. Prepare to be your best at everything you do, and always stay in the saddle."===========================⚡️PODCAST: Subscribe to our podcast here ➡ https://elevatemedia.buzzsprout.com/⚡️Need post-recording video production help?

In this conversation, William Norvell discusses the vital connection between physical fitness and mental health, emphasizing that both should be viewed as a spectrum rather than a binary state. He argues that just as one maintains physical health through consistent effort, mental health also requires ongoing attention and care.
