Send us a textSteve Bisson welcomes Bill Dwinnells, a licensed mental health counselor with over 30 years of experience and a background as an EMT, to discuss their joint venture, Gambit Counseling, and its innovative approach to first responder mental health.The conversation explores why traditional mental health services often fall short for first responders. As Dwinnells eloquently explains, "First responders see a very unique slice of American life that the vast majority of people know absolutely nothing about," creating a profound disconnection that many carry with them. This disconnect frequently leads to challenges when seeking support – from therapists who visibly react with shock to their stories, to discomfort speaking openly in peer support settings.Bisson and Dwinnells share their vision for the Fortress program, designed to complement existing crisis intervention systems with preventative wellness visits, resilience training, and a confidential support line. Unlike departmental resources, Gambit operates independently, allowing for truly confidential conversations about workplace challenges. As Dwinnells notes, "We can have very free, frank conversations about stuff and it all remains confidential."The pair challenge common misconceptions about first responder mental health, revealing that trauma comprises less than half of what their clients typically discuss. More common are chronic stress, administrative conflicts, and what Bisson describes as "transference" – when a call triggers personal connections or memories. Throughout the episode, they emphasize that resilience isn't acquired through a single workshop but is "a daily practice" requiring ongoing attention.For departments or individuals seeking support that truly understands first responder culture, Gambit Counseling offers a fresh approach focusing on prevention rather than just reaction. Visit gambitcounseling.com to learn how their services can help build sustainable resilience for those who protect our communities.To reach Bill, go to www.billdwinnells.com/For Gambit Counseling, go to gambitcounseling.com/For more information on FRTRESS, email stevebissonlmhc@gmail.com or bdwinnells@gmail.com.

Send us a textIs the elusive "work/life balance" a myth? This week on "The Selling Podcast," Mike and I get real about a topic that plagues every ambitious professional. We argue that true balance is impossible and that the real key to success lies in a radical reframe: work/life is a trade-off, not a balance.Mike lays out a powerful truth: work is an obligation, but family is a non-negotiable responsibility. With this perspective, we explore the concept of work/life integration, a more realistic and effective approach. We challenge you to stop trying to fit your family life into your work schedule and, instead, strategically find how to fit your career into your family life—the second most important thing into the first.This episode is packed with candid insights and practical advice on how to navigate this trade-off with intentionality. We share our own struggles and successes in creating a life where you can be a top-performing professional without sacrificing what truly matters.Tune in to learn how to change your mindset, make the right choices, and create a sustainable model for success in every area of your life.Support the showScott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach
Send us a textEver notice how Black women are expected to win quietly? In this powerful return episode, I dive into the recent tennis court confrontation between Taylor Townsend and Jelena Ostapenko that perfectly captures what many of us experience daily – being told we're "low class" or "uneducated" when we succeed, then being praised for our composure when we don't react to blatant disrespect.The tennis incident serves as a mirror to workplace dynamics where Black women face impossible standards. We're expected to take on additional responsibilities without complaint or compensation, to dim our light when it shines too brightly, and to apologise for achievements that would be celebrated in others. I share personal experiences of being shamed for displaying success or enjoying luxury items – what I now recognise as the systematic policing of Black joy, a pattern so pervasive it deserves to be studied as a psychological phenomenon.I'm thrilled to announce my new venture, Sister Scribble – a stationery brand celebrating Black creativity through vibrant, 90s hip-hop inspired designs. After finding conventional stationery boring and disconnected from my experience, I've created a line that honors our voices and cultural heritage while providing tools for creative expression. The Origin Edit launches in October 2025, coinciding with UK Black History Month.The episode also tackles current events including immigration policies, the weaponisation of national symbols, and how Christianity is sometimes used to create hierarchies among women based on marital status. I close with strategic advice for a listener facing the all-too-common dilemma of being asked to take on senior responsibilities without appropriate recognition or compensation.Ready to stop apologising for your success? Listen now, and remember: you are not here to be manageable. Your wins are only threatening to fragile egos – to the rest of us, they're testimony.Referenced in podcast:On Becoming by Toke Makinwahttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Becoming-Toke-Makinwa-ebook/dp/B01NAAEILQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=22QOYVTIK8XAJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.I2kHpBBav2v9SW3ObtJCNw.dR98_87UWyYR5SicIjHVRdapL-tOgl9Zf3WzsDxrtzY&dib_tag=se&keywords=toke+makinwa&qid=1756854169&sprefix=toke+makinwa%2Caps%2C111&sr=8-1Sponsorships - Email me: hello@toyatalks.com Cc: toyawashington10@gmail.comTikTok: toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talks www.toyatalks.comhttps://toyatalks.com/Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic Star Stationary Company - Instagram @sistahscribble Website: www.sistahscribble.com COMING SOON....

Reinventing your life or career starts with reflection and conversation. Making the leap — to a new career, to the next stage of a relationship, or to a different version of yourself — requires honest communication. For Ilana Golan, being “leap-ready” requires that we answer three questions: Why me? Why this? And why now?Golan knows all about these leaps, as her career spans corporate executive roles, entrepreneurship, and even F-16 flight instruction. As the founder of Leap Academy and host of the Leap Academy Podcast, she helps equip others to navigate their own personal and professional reinventions. As she says, “It's really about communicating from the vision,” which starts as an inside job. “Why is this the right thing for me right now? You convince yourself first, because when you're [at] peace with what you're trying to do, it's a lot easier to convince others.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Golan and host Matt Abrahams explore how honest communication shapes every stage of reinvention, whether that's listening to the signals your mind and body are sending you — like “sleepwalking through life” and imagining something more — or articulating your pivot in ways that create understanding rather than resistance. Wherever you hope to leap, Golan's insights show how to communicate through change with confidence and clarity.Episode Reference Links:Ilana GolanLeap Academy Podcast | Leap AcademyEp.187 Experimenting, Failing, and Finding Your Job Fit - Catalyze Your CareerEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:39) - Breaking Barriers & Career Patterns (02:18) - Waking Up to Change (03:42) - Signs It's Time for a Pivot (06:45) - The Rise of Portfolio Careers (10:17) - Communicating Career Leaps (13:29) - Finding Clarity in Reinvention (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (22:56) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors.
