Cultivating Presence in Pivots   Episode #154   Welcome back to The Creative Soulpreneur podcast! On today's episode, we have the pleasure of hosting an inspiring duo, Theresa and Ivana. Host Nick introduces us to this dynamic pair, who recently embarked on a powerful journey of personal and professional pivots. Discover how they initially met Nick at a financial services event and how it led them to unpack deep conversations about vulnerability, authenticity, and the multiple layers of pivoting in life. Theresa and Ivana dive into their own experiences, discussing how life's unexpected challenges forced them to pivot and how these shifts have led to new opportunities and a deeper sense of purpose. Learn about the profound impact of Theresa's battle with breast cancer and Ivana's resilience in overcoming PTSD from her experiences growing up in Eastern Europe. Throughout this episode, our guests explore the concept of embracing change, navigating through discomfort, and finding grace within themselves during transitions. They reveal how they support one another and others in their industry to step into their own pivots with courage and intention. Tune in to hear more about their podcast, "Step Into the Pivot," Theresa's upcoming keynote speeches and book plans, and Ivana's exciting retreat offerings. This episode is brimming with insights, heartfelt stories, and practical advice on how to turn any sour lemons life hands you into something beautifully transformative.   Takeaways:   Embrace the Layers of Pivoting: Theresa and Ivana shared how each pivot goes beyond the surface. It starts physically (like changing jobs or managing health), extends to emotional adjustments, and dives deep into spiritual reflections about who we are and what we want.   Give Yourself Grace: Theresa emphasized the importance of allowing yourself the time and space to navigate a pivot. Whether it's selling a business after decades or facing an unexpected layoff, grace is crucial for making thoughtful and impactful decisions.   Transform Challenges into Opportunities: Ivana highlighted that even the toughest situations (like dealing with PTSD from past trauma) can be catalysts for growth. By being present and nurturing self-awareness, you can turn sour lemons into nourishing lemonade, or even vegan ice cream!

375 Practicing What You Preach It's important in life, whether you are running your own business or in your daily life, to practice what you preach. Not only do you avoid being seen as hypocritical but often the best person to give you advice is you. Consult with other coaches and counselors, ask the opinions of those you love and value, do whatever you need to in order to put yourself on the path to fulfillment and success. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Mike Trugman discuss practicing their own advice, as well as the importance of doing what you will say you will in order to put yourself in a better environment that will help you grow and thrive.    Highlights How do you approach your own self learning and self development? What do you need to do more of to bring yourself more fulfillment? Are you in a place that lets you grow and thrive? Or do you need to find somewhere new to grow?   Quotes “We think we're really sneaky, or really good at hiding these aspects of ourselves but there is no separate ‘I'm playful over here' ‘I'm not playful over here.' you are who you are.” “In some capacity we have helped people with public speaking, each of us.” “We've been conditioned for the most part in our society that to be successful you need to be relentlessly hard on yourself, and give up a lot of aspects of your life. And I love to work with people who are doing the courageous work of: What if I were really kind to myself? What could life look like if I was kinder and gentler to myself? And almost in a way, allowed my success to unfold, rather than something I need to grasp and control and attain. And if I lived that way, how would that make my personal relationships and the rest of my life better?” “You can have everything you want in your life and also feel good about yourself at the same time, and it doesn't have to be one or the other. Which is what I think a lot of us are taught and believe.”   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, I would love for you to think about a time when something went sideways for you. I know we all have episodes that went a little sideways. But when was a time where things really went sideways for you and someone showed up to be your guide? It might've been in a negative way, it might've been somebody who did something so bad that you chose a different path in spite or to spite this person. But more than likely, you hit a point where things went so sideways that only somebody who loves you could help guide you out of that. Think about that moment, write it down, collect that story because as Mike said; it's not all about I did this and now I'm here, it's what obstacles did you overcome to get here? Because that's the story that inspires.  And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Mike Mike Trugman is a Professional Life and Career Coach who helps his clients move from fear to thriving with purpose, passion and fulfillment.

About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

He's a retired undercover FBI agent who spent nearly three decades infiltrating some of the most dangerous groups in America—white supremacist organizations, outlaw biker gangs, and domestic terror cells. His new book, Code Name: Pale Horse, reveals the harrowing details of his undercover life, including moments where he was seconds away from being exposed and killed.Scott spent 18 months embedded with the Outlaws motorcycle gang. In one chilling moment, they decided to strip-search him while he was wired up, a scenario that could have ended him on the spot. He also infiltrated the KKK in Alabama, adopting the codename Pale Horse to penetrate a violent neo-Nazi cell known as The Base, which was actively planning attacks and preparing for a so-called race war.This is raw, unfiltered, and straight from the front lines of America's most dangerous extremist groups.

The world of social media is definitely complex. As someone who started out using social media just for ‘fun' years ago, to then building a business online, I've had quite the journey!While I'm incredibly grateful for social media, it can be freaking HARD to navigate - especially as a business owner. I know many people view me as a fitness influencer, but I have a bit of a different take on that. If I'm going to influence you to do anything, I hope it's to live a healthier life!Honestly, I am super careful about what I choose to share on my platforms. Building a business and brand online is hard enough, and I've learned that people are going to pick you apart no matter WHAT you choose (or choose NOT) to share.For me, I'm going to use my platforms to bring awareness to health and fitness - end of story. I will ALWAYS be authentic with you (wherever we're connecting), but I don't feel the need to broadcast every.single.thing either, you know?Regardless of how you use social media, I hope this episode gives you some food for thought the next time you're on your favorite platform. Here's to being mindful of what we're consuming (and sharing) online, and just practicing more kindness & empathy towards others!In this episode, we cover:My start with social media + how it feels now as someone who primarily ‘works' on social mediaMy thoughts on being an ‘influencer' vs. being ‘influenced'Going from everything being perfectly curated, to being more relatable & authentic on social mediaBeing mindful of what I choose to share about & educate on my platformsA reminder about social media etiquette Links/Resources:Join FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

When he was 7 years old, a friend's father was in the entertainment business. Hanging out at rehearsals and on the tour buses sold Matt on the idea of being a musician, or at the very least, a drummer. All this lead to spending his high school years at Fort Hayes vocational school for music and Capital University Conservatory of Music for college studying under drum instructor Bob Breithaupt. The musical diversity in Columbus gave Matt the chance to play with many great players and learning many different styles – from Big Band (Vaughn Weister's Famous Jazz Orchestra) and Brazilian to Afro-Cuban and Fusion. All the while, he was doing his share of gigs with original rock bands and top 40 bands. Matt moved to Nashville in the summer of 1999. Working as a freelance drummer based in Nashville has taken him to all 50 states in the U.S. and most of Canada, as well as overseas to Europe, Asia, The Middle East and The Caribbean. As well as the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Matt has performed in great local venues like the Ryman Auditorium, Mercy Lounge, 3rd and Lindsley, The 5 Spot, The Sutler, The Basement, The Wildhorse Saloon, and many clubs on lower Broadway.  Matt has toured both regionally and nationally, with the Adam and Shannon Wright, Mark Selby, Eddy Raven, Billy Dean, Stephen Simmons, Three Lane, Whiskey Cash & Roses, Michelle Wright - (throughout Canada), Julie Roberts, and The Frontmen of Country which is Larry Stewart of Restless Heart, Richie McDonald of Lonestar, Tim Rushlow of Little Texas. From 2009 to 2017 Matt was the full time drummer for the band Savannah Jack. He played percussion on their first studio record in 2010 opposite Steve Ferrone on drums. For their second studio record in 2015, Matt was the drumset and percussion player in the studio. In the studio, Matt has had the pleasure of working with talented producers including Eric Fritsch, Teddy Morgan, Jim Reilley and Brent Maher. Artist he's recorded with in the studio have included Sheryl Crow, legendary songwriter Buzz Cason and actor Kevin Costner. In 2015, Matt started a podcast for drummers called "Working Drummer", an interview based podcast that maintains a focus on the drummer that makes a living at his or her craft. Along with the help of co-host Zack Albetta, the podcast has a growing audience throughout the world with more listeners every week. www.workingdrummer.net   *******SUBSCRIBE/RATE/REVIEW!!! www.richredmond.com/listen     The Rich Redmond Show is about all things music, motivation and success.

Ever wonder how faith should shape your politics? Craig sits down with Bob from Liberty Minds for a no-holds-barred chat about the messy, fascinating collision of Christianity and government. Bob's lived everywhere from Central America to California, and his spicy takes will challenge what you learned in your childhood church pew. Hear Bob's eye-opening journey from Hannity fan to libertarian thinker—driven by a quest to let his faith, not party lines, guide his views. Why does caring for the poor get him labeled a “left winger”? Why are both Democrats and Republicans failing on war and foreign policy? And is America's global power crumbling—or just getting darker?   From Trump's 2024 re-election to the future of the American empire, this isn't your grandma's Bible study.

Every year kicks off with an air of expectation. How much of our Professional Life in 2025 is going to look a lot like 2024? How much will look different, but we have a pretty good idea of what the difference will be? What will surprise us entirely—the unknown unknowns? By definition, that last one is unknowable. But we thought it would be fun to sit down with returning guest Barr Moses from Monte Carlo to see what we could nail down anyway. The result? A pretty wide-ranging discussion about data observability, data completeness vs. data connectedness, structured data vs. unstructured data, and where AI sits from an input and an output and a processing engine. And more. Moe and Tim even briefly saw eye to eye on a thing or two (although maybe that was just a hallucination).
