Evidence based care is a term you hear often in medicine, but what does it really mean—especially when it comes to pregnancy and birth? In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker takes you inside the foundations of Evidence Based Birth®, explaining what evidence based care is (and isn't), and why it matters for families, providers, and communities.   Dr. Dekker breaks down the three essential pillars of evidence based care: the best available research, the provider's expertise, and the birthing person's values and preferences. She explores how care can drift away from this model when decisions are based solely on tradition, authority, or convenience rather than the evidence. Along the way, hear how families can use this knowledge to navigate common hospital policies and advocate for care that truly centers their needs.   (02:12) Outdated practices and the rise of evidence based medicine (05:00) Florence Nightingale, Mary Seacole, and whose knowledge counts (08:05) The three pillars of evidence based care: research, expertise, and patient values (10:50) Understanding levels of evidence: from systematic reviews to case reports (19:30) Why clinical expertise and trusted providers matter in applying research (22:10) The role of patient values, preferences, and underlying biases (27:10) What evidence based care is, and what it is not   For more information about Evidence Based Birth® and a crash course on evidence based care, visit www.ebbirth.com.

Hillary Seiler joins us today to discuss the finances of athletes and NFL players. She shares her journey from personal financial struggles in college to building a career helping athletes, students, and employees improve their financial wellness. She shares how supporting friends who went pro in the NFL led her into creating financial literacy programs for professional teams, eventually expanding into universities and corporate America. She talks the lack of financial education for athletes, the misconceptions around their earnings, and the systems now in place to protect players from going broke.  We discuss... Hillary is a financial education coach who began working with pro athletes and later expanded to universities and corporate America. She was inspired by her own financial struggles during her mother's illness, which gave her perspective on money management. The NFL now mandates financial education sessions for rookies and younger players to prevent bankruptcy and poor financial decisions. Many athletes face misconceptions about their earnings, with most NFL players earning far less than the public assumes. Financial downfall is often tied to lack of education, poor money management, divorce, and being targeted for bad investments. Hillary teaches athletes to evaluate deals by requiring full business plans and consulting financial advisors before investing. Support systems and career planning are critical to helping athletes adjust to life after sports and avoid identity loss. Studies show Olympic silver medalists often stay motivated while gold medalists can struggle with depression and identity loss after reaching the pinnacle. Professional athletes and military veterans face similar challenges when retiring, often losing their sense of purpose. There has been debate about requiring athletes to save in pensions or annuities, but concerns remain about limiting free will. The NFL and NBA encourage saving with strong 401k matching programs, but players cannot access funds until age 45. The Pro Athlete Community (PAC) helps retired athletes manage money and avoid financial pitfalls. Despite education programs, some athletes still make costly mistakes or fall for scams, learning lessons the hard way.

In this episode, Molly Painschab and Clarissa Kennedy reconnect after three transformative weeks together—first in London for the International Food Addiction and Comorbidities Conference, then exploring the magic of Scotland. From castles and waterfalls to ancient standing stones, they share the joy of work, play, and community in recovery. But the heart of today's conversation is the fawn response—a trauma survival strategy often misunderstood as “people pleasing.” Drawing on their own stories and professional experiences, Molly and Clarissa explore how fawning develops, why it feels so challenging to change, and how it manifests in recovery and relationships. What We Talk About Fawning explained: Why it's more than people pleasing and how it functions as a survival strategy. Personal stories: Growing up in emotionally immature households, learning to appease, and the impact on identity and relationships. Adaptive vs. maladaptive fawning: When appeasement helps us survive—and when it harms us. Symptoms and signs: From difficulty saying no, over-apologizing, and hypervigilance to identity loss and emotional exhaustion. Why fawning is reinforced: Cultural, gender, and relational factors that reward compliance at the cost of selfhood. Professional insights: What clinicians and helpers need to know about clients who fawn—including vulnerability to relapse, self-neglect, and difficulty with boundaries. Pathways to healing: Building awareness, practicing small boundaries, parts work, somatic tools, and self-compassion as antidotes to shame. Grief and growth: Naming the loss that comes with shifting out of fawning while also reclaiming voice, choice, and authenticity. Invitation for Listeners This week, reflect on a time you said “yes” when you truly wanted to say “no.” What small, safe boundary might you practice instead? Notice how your body responds, and give yourself permission to honor your needs—one step at a time. ✨ Resources Mentioned Are You Mad at Me? by Meg Josephson Sweet Sobriety Membership & Groups: www.sweetsobriety.ca

Happy October! If you've been following recent episodes of the Selling to Corporate ® podcast, you'll know I love a good trend prediction—and this year, one big shift has arrived faster than expected. So… what's stopping B2B sales growth right now? The #1 Hidden Trap: Negativity + Lack of Strategy Despite a booming B2B market (yes, companies ARE spending more, hiring external suppliers, and booking high-value engagements!), I'm seeing more consultants and sales professionals struggle to hit their revenue targets. Why? Here's what's happening: Negativity Echo Chambers: There's an overwhelming focus on everything feeling hard—market uncertainty, global events, peer groups venting frustrations. If your daily rhythm starts with news or LinkedIn doom-scrolling, your sales mindset takes a major hit before you even begin working. Peer-Led Accountability (Used Wrong): While supportive networks are great for encouragement, relying on peers for strategic decision-making or troubleshooting technical sales problems simply doesn't work anymore. You wouldn't ask your best friend to diagnose your heart problem, right? The same thinking applies to your sales process. Mistaking Knowledge for Results: Just knowing how sales “should” work isn't enough. The market is changing fast. What brought you success last year may fall flat this year. Continuous accountability, real strategy, and expert guidance keep the needle moving. The Good News: There's Huge Opportunity if You Shift Focus Even in this wild year, our podcast community has been sharing wins: Clients having their best month ever 30K speaking engagements secured 6-figure contracts signed with new clients in under 6 weeks High conversion rates for those who stay focused on actionable strategy It's not about ignoring the hard stuff—it's about how you show up for your business before the negativity sets in. Strategic action, consistent outreach, and real accountability are your best friends right now. What to Do Next If you want 2026 to look radically different (and better!) for your business: Get strategic support that's built for where you are and where you want to go, not just trending advice from peers or influencers. Consider how you're really spending your “sales” time each day. Are you letting outside noise dictate your results? Take a look at your goals for next year. Are they clear—and matched with a sales strategy that aligns? Opportunities Not to Miss: The Expert Services Directory is almost full in some categories. If you coach execs in London, we have just TWO spots left for the next 12 months. The final ever round of The C Suite ® program is open for enrolment until 31st October or until all 45 remaining spots are taken (whichever comes first). This is the program with a 96% market success rate, and it's created millions in revenue for participants in 20+ countries. Don't miss out—this is your final chance. Stay tuned—upcoming podcast episodes will feature case studies, breakthrough sales stories, and practical planning tips you won't want to miss. Let's make the most of what's left of 2025—and plan for a phenomenal 2026!  Key Quotes; Who Should Teach You B2B Sales? 00:00:4500:01:03 "If somebody has not worked in a business development and specifically a new business development management or new business development sales director type position in a corporate company, then they have no business giving you any advice on how to sell to companies." The Importance of Qualified Strategic Advice 00:29:5600:30:24 "But when we're not taking strategic advice from somebody who is qualified in their field to troubleshoot that advice, who's qualified in their field to be able to make changes and make appropriate and educated changes, rather than just telling them to do the same thing repeatedly without, you know, checking anything, that person continues to get lower results." The Panic Trap—Why More Content Doesn't Always Fix Your Business 00:38:4000:39:06 "So this is where people really panic and they're like, oh my gosh, well, if it's not working, if the market's awful, I'm going to start posting on social media every day. I'm going to create 10 hours worth of content a week. I'm going to be doing free webinars and I'm going to do a three part newsletter sequence with, you know, some kind of tech funnel that drips them into a paid product for 99 pounds or whatever it is. And that doesn't work and they don't see results." The Pitfalls of Peer-Led Environments 00:32:4900:33:21 "In a peer led environment, there is this vacuum of knowledge and motivation and innovation and ability to troubleshoot. So the negativity that can be there, combined with the lack of strategy and consistent application of that strategy and ability to troubleshoot it in the right way, that's caused real issues because it has created these kinds of echo chambers of "oh, well, everyone's doing badly." The Power of Celebrating Success 00:48:1700:48:39 "What really makes me sad is that there are people who've had an amazing year this year who don't want to talk about it. They don't want to say it publicly because they don't want to make other people who are in the weeds feel bad. And that's really awful because actually, if we don't start talking positively about, you know, this person's done this amazing thing, this person's achieved this awesome goal, this person's still standing at this level. All we hear is that negativity. So we assume everything's bad, and so they miss out on the opportunity to inspire a whole bunch of people."   Key Resources Mentioned in this Episode:   Click here for the direct link to The C Suite ® 2026: https://smartleaderssell.thrivecart.com/the-c-suite-2026-live/   If you want to learn more about The Expert Services Directory, click here: http://bit.ly/4f3ch1I   If you've enjoyed listening to How educating decision makers is screwing your sales process check out these other episodes that may be of interest.   Top B2B Trends and Insights to set yourself up for success https://bit.ly/SellingtoCorporate060   Why content doesn't work to sell to corporate clients https://bit.ly/SellingToCorporate135   Converting Corporates is the B2B sales event of the year for service based entrepreneurs, if you want to join the waitlist for 2026 click the link https://smartleaderssell.vipmembervault.com/cc2026waitlist   If you would like to sign up for our weekly newsletter to stay in touch with the latest B2B sales tips and techniques click https://sellingtocorporate.com/newsletter/   Content Disclaimer The information contained above is provided for information purposes only.

Hey Monika work experience: https://www.heymonika.com/ In this episode, Jo and Zoe dive into the challenges bookkeepers face when trying to gain practical work experience. They reflect on their own career journeys, from retraining and apprenticeships to learning vital lessons through real-world scenarios that exams never cover.

When parents question your decisions as a teacher, it can feel like your professionalism is on trial, but it's actually an opportunity. Instead of bracing for conflict, what if you leaned in with clarity, calm, and confidence?  As the excitement of a new school year wears off, new and challenging situations often arise. That's why I created the September Survival Series; to give you practical tips, strategies, and encouragement to remind you that everything will work out. In the first two episodes, I shared how to reset your routines and procedures and how to manage stress during those first hectic weeks. In this final episode, I'm focusing on what to do when parents question you, and how to handle those situations with confidence and professionalism.

Why Learning the “Language” Matters Actors spend years honing their craft, but many miss one critical piece: learning how to communicate in the Language of the Agents and the Casting Directors. This isn't just about vocabulary. It's about aligning your training, business practices, and mindset so the industry sees you as the solution—not the problem. As a casting director, I see it firsthand. Actors who know how to speak this language get representation, book roles, and build sustainable careers. Those who don't? They're quickly overlooked. The Three Pillars of a Successful Acting Career A thriving career rests on three equally important pillars: Training – Building your instrument as an actor so you know you're good at your craft. Business – Getting your materials, schedule, and communication in order. Core Energy Work – Tackling mindset blocks like procrastination, perfectionism, and fear so you actually do what you know you need to do. Neglect any one of these, and your career wobbles. Balance them, and everything starts to flow. What Agents and Casting Directors Really Want Casting directors are solution-oriented. They need actors who are: Prepared, confident, and easy to direct Clear and concise communicators (no long-winded emails) Professional and drama-free Confident in their abilities without needing validation Agents and managers, on the other hand, prioritize placement and revenue. They want clients who understand their product (themselves as actors) and know where they fit in the market. They love actors who are: Low-maintenance (professional, proactive, not needy) Consistent with follow-ups (every 2 weeks if signed, every 3–4 weeks if freelancing) Quick to respond (within 15 minutes when possible) If you can show up as a reliable, confident professional who respects their time, you'll stand out. Bridging Art and Business The “language” isn't just about using terms like clips, reels, avail, or first refusal correctly. It's about mirroring the way agents and casting directors think. Shift from actor-centric to project-centric. Instead of saying, I felt this choice worked for me, reframe to, I believe this choice serves the director's vision. That shift alone can make you the actor they trust. A Weekly Practice That Works In my Weekly Accountability Group for actors, we focus on all three pillars: Training: What did you do to become a better actor this week? Business: What actions did you take to move your career forward? Core Energy Work: What mindset challenges came up, and how did you respond? By setting intentions and following through week after week, actors create real momentum—and book more work. Final Thoughts The industry is full of talented actors. The ones who book consistently aren't always the most gifted. They're the ones who communicate well, respect the process, and show they're confident, reliable professionals. That's the power of learning the Language of the Agents and the Casting Directors. Resources Mentioned in This Episode

What if the real solution to conflict is not about persuading the other side, but in transforming yourself first? That's the provocative question we explore in today's episode with my guest, Ursula Taylor.We discuss why self-awareness and authenticity must precede empathy, versus what some other thought leaders you may be following are saying. We examine where traditional conflict resolution processes fall short, and why it truly only takes one person to change the energy of a dispute, answering the most common question I get about how to deal with someone who is not showing YOU any empathy! And finally, we consider why peacebuilding and sustainable resolution start from the inside out, requiring us to release our energy and the need for control to cultivate neutrality within ourselves before clarity and solutions can emerge.If you've ever found yourself entrenched in conflict, whether at work, at home, or with others in these very divisive times, this conversation will invite you to reimagine what resolution really looks like.To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode at TheEmpathyEdge.com Listen in for:Keys to approaching negotiation and conflict with self-awareness. The right energy to bring for healthy conflict, and how you can release your own emotional charge when someone is not showing you empathy back.The impact you have on others when you set the tone in your interaction with them. Why the win/loss dichotomy is not important in conflict and negotiation "When you're in an interaction with someone who's not capable of empathy, it manifests as self-absorption or even narcissism. You're with someone who's not there to hear you. They're there to talk. You want to make sure you are sourcing your energy from you and not from that person." — Ursula Taylor Episode References: Never Split the Difference by Chris VossThe Empathy Edge podcasts with guest Robin Dreeke:Spycraft and the Leadership Code of TrustSpy Lessons for Leaders: Forging Unbreakable Alliances Through EmpathyFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

Welcome to this episode of Sauna Talk, where we head back to Farris Bad, resort spa and wellness retreat South of Oslo, Norway. We get to sit with Jerome, who is a long standing steam master at the resort. Here he leads aufguss ceremony and assists two time Sauna Talk guest Lasse Eriksen. 10,000 hours One thing I wish I had asked Jerome in this interview is to venture a guess at how many guests he's “entertained” (if that's the right word) over his 10-plus years leading aufguss sessions at this world-renowned facility. Some quick farmer's math gets us close: a few sessions a day, five days a week, for 10 years… that adds up to well over 10,000 people. I'm one of those 10,000—a repeat guest for a couple of years, attending several of his aufguss ceremonies. An Aufgussmeister, in my view, is best to not be lead into temptation. For like a church paster, there could be that ego boost that comes from standing in front of an audience, performing. Controlling the movement of steam, and the administering of essences and microclimate manipulation could give one a feeling of power, dominance even. Aufguss master responsibilities Yet Lasse instills some deep and powerful education with his students. He gives them freedom to be creative with their art, yet he also instills true message that the sauna is the teacher. The stove and the heat and steam it creates is to be respected. The duty an aufgussmeister has to those sitting on the bench is an important one. Safety is critical. For the under educated, pushing steam and controlling time in the hot room is a noble and great responsibility. Each session is led with an important statement. You are welcome to leave the session, but once you leave, do not come back in. The door to the hot room opens in one direction during an aufguss ceremony. But back to Jerome. After producing over 100 Sauna Talk podcasts, I've learned what makes a guest unforgettable: someone who can take us right to the edge of the box. During my visits to Farris Bad, Jerome would casually share insights about aufguss—and every time, I'd think, people need to hear and feel this for themselves! Today, we get that chance, right now. Let's step behind the scenes into the fascinating, ever-evolving world of aufguss. Please welcome Jerome to Sauna Talk! Podcast summary Jerome Farris, a sauna master at Farris Bad in Larvik, Norway, discusses his role and background. He has been at Farris Bad for eight years, having moved from Switzerland.

Think military divorce means automatically splitting everythign 50/50 and going to court? Wrong on both counts! Certified Divorce Financial Anaylst David Smith reveals what most military families get wrong and what it costs them! In today's episode, we'll discuss the complex financial and logistical aspects of military divorce, covering everything from pension division to healthcare benefits, tax implications, and emotional support strategies. Key Topics Jurisdiction & Legal Considerations Multiple state options for filing (voting state, property ownership state, driver's license state, tax filing state) Importance of consulting with an attorney early to determine proper jurisdiction Each state has different rules, formulas, and processes JAG office can provide consultation but cannot represent service members in divorce proceedings Types of Divorce Processes Four main options: DIY without professionals, mediation, collaborative divorce, litigation Court is NOT the only option Out-of-court processes (mediation, collaborative) are often more cost-effective, private, and less stressful Consulting attorneys vs. representing attorneys - different roles and costs Military Pension Division Division is not the only option - can use offsetting with other assets Must determine what portion is "marital" vs. "separate" property Not all pension components are divisible (e.g., VA disability) Requires a Military Retirement Pay Division Order through DFAS Differences between active duty, reservist, and guard member pensions Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) Critical considerations: Only ONE SBP beneficiary can be named Previous spouses from earlier marriages may already occupy the "SBP chair" Premium costs must be negotiated Former spouse can be SBP beneficiary even without receiving pension payments Time-sensitive: Required forms must be submitted within specific timeframe or rights are lost Cannot be automatically transferred - requires proper paperwork TRICARE Benefits Courts CANNOT order TRICARE coverage - falls under federal rules Key rules: 20-20-20 (full benefits for life), 20-20-15 (transitional benefits) Based on: length of marriage, service member's creditable years, overlap period COBRA-like option available if don't meet other rules GI Bill Transfer Must be transferred WHILE married - cannot go to former spouse after divorce Service member can rescind the transfer Can be transferred to children as alternative Settlement agreement language is critical to protect this benefit Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) Multiple TSPs possible (civilian federal employee spouse, reservist who went active duty) Pre-tax and Roth portions have different tax consequences Must account for outstanding loans Requires Retirement Benefits Court Order (different from pension division order) Not always split - can use offset method with other assets Other Unique Military Assets to Consider Military leave - has monetary value on LES Credit card points and miles - can be worth $30,000-$40,000 USAA Subscriber Savings Account Pets - especially valuable show animals Life insurance policies Tax Implications Filing status changes Tax bracket shifts Capital gains considerations when dividing assets Pre-tax accounts (traditional IRA, 401k) vs. post-tax accounts have different real values Child tax credits and claiming dependents Early withdrawal penalties Marital vs. Separate Property Separate property: assets brought into marriage, inheritances, gifts (if kept separate and not commingled) Marital property: everything accumulated during marriage Characterization process is essential before division discussions Financial Mistakes to Avoid Making verbal agreements before completing full financial inventory Not understanding tax consequences of asset division Overlooking hidden assets (leave balance, points/miles, etc.) Rushing decisions - most divorce decisions have no do-overs Not considering pre-tax vs. post-tax asset values Misclassifying assets as marital or separate Practical First Steps Learn about all four divorce process options If abuse is present, seek legal counsel immediately Open credit card and bank account in your own name Create timeline of important dates and duty stations Gather supporting documents (tax returns, bank statements) in cloud storage Document account numbers, login credentials, passwords Consider consulting with CDFA before hiring representing attorney Supporting Someone Through Divorce Listen deeply and empathetically Avoid projecting your own divorce experience onto theirs Don't rush them into decisions Offer practical help (childcare, meals, house cleaning) Point them to resources (counselors, family services, professionals) Give them breathing room Key Takeaways Divorce in the military involves unique complexities beyond civilian divorces Court is not the only option - consider mediation or collaborative processes Complete financial inventory BEFORE making division decisions Everything accumulated during marriage is generally marital property Professional guidance (CDFA, attorney consultation) is an investment, not just a cost Most divorce decisions are final with no do-overs -

Let's discuss the legal intricacies of exiting a practice, particularly in the context of private equity transactions. On this episode, David Cohen and I explore the importance of managing expectations for sellers, understanding the valuation process, and the implications of debt and real estate ownership in practice sales. Our conversation emphasizes the need for thorough preparation and professional guidance to navigate the complexities of selling a practice successfully.   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center.

Exiting to a corporate buyer is very different than peer-to-peer transactions. Sellers need a realignment of expectations regarding control and changes post-sale. Understanding the enterprise value is crucial for sellers. Debt must be paid off at closing, complicating the sale process. Real estate ownership can impact the sale and lease agreements. Negotiating lease terms is essential to maintain property value. Expectations around performance metrics must be managed carefully. Professional guidance is vital in navigating practice sales. Preparation is key to avoid pitfalls in the selling process.   ————————————————————————————— Please rate and subscribe to 20/20 Money on these platforms Apple Podcasts Spotify ————————————————————————————— For past episodes of 20/20 Money with full companion show notes, please check out our episode archive here!
