Most people hide their addiction until it destroys them — Kellan Fluckiger spent $3,000 a week on cocaine while testifying before Congress, then flatlined in an ICU and met God at the door. In this episode of The Root of All Success, Jason Duncan sits down with Kellan Fluckiger, a former energy executive turned coach, author of 30+ books, billboard-charting choir performer, and founder of The Ultimate Life Formula. After hiding cocaine addiction and depression for 30 years while working at the highest levels of government and industry, Kellan experienced a divine intervention in 2007, quit cold turkey, and walked away from millions in contracts. In 2018, he died in the ICU for 17 days — and what happened at that doorway changed everything. Kellan shares how severe childhood abuse created the “I'm not good enough” belief that fueled decades of overachievement and self-destruction, his 18-hour out-of-body life review of pain he caused and received, and the four truths God gave him about purpose and mission. This conversation dives into: • How childhood abuse created a lifelong “prove I'm good enough” addiction • Spending $3,000/week on cocaine while running energy operations and testifying before Congress • The 2007 divine intervention and 18-hour life review • Quitting cocaine cold turkey after hearing “it is enough” • Meeting his wife Joy at a Yo-Yo Ma concert when God said, “You need to marry this woman. Tonight.” • Walking away from millions in contracts without knowing what came next • The 2018 near-death experience: flatlining in the ICU for 17 days • Standing at the doorway with God and being asked, “Do you want to come home?” • A vision of infinite domains (like the movie Contact with Jodie Foster) • Four truths brought back from death: You're divine. You have a mission. You have gifts. Help is available. • Why God said “Because you don't believe,” when asked why people settle • The Book of Context framework for eliminating limiting beliefs • God's final question before returning: “Are you sure?” • How “context straitjackets” (BDEEP: Beliefs, Definitions, Experiences, Expectations, Perceptions) limit us • Why success isn't what you accumulate — it's what you make of yourself • His refusal to give up: “I friggin won't stop.” If you're battling hidden addiction, stuck in “not good enough” patterns, or wondering if transformation is possible after decades of pain — this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about redemption and purpose.

Staying the course when things are tough is a skill. I think you either have it or you don't. Chris Luxon will not get rolled, but he may quit. That would be a mistake of epic proportions. What would drive me, if I was him, would be rational thought. 1) This election is not about personality, it's about economic management. On that the Government are tracking well. 2) The internal polling within the National Party is fine. It does not reflect the Curia poll that the media made so much of. The unfortunate thing about Friday's pre-hyped release is it came at the same time Luxon had had a bad week on the war. That week by the way, was nowhere near as bad as some made it out to be. But the two events came together for a good week-end headline. 3) This would be the bit that would focus my mind - it's only Hipkins. Seriously, you're only lining up Labour as an opponent. On the economy. The people who wrecked the place two and a bit years ago are asking the voter to come back and do a bit more of it. You don't believe me? Read Thomas Coughlan's piece with Barbara Edmonds. 4) Even if you take the poll seriously, which you shouldn't. There is a one seat shift, so it's within a margin of error. 5) The economy will save you. You campaigned on a turnaround and the turnaround is real. Given we are voting on economics, the National leader is not a deal-breaker. If you are voting on interest rates and jobs, does Chris Bishop or Erica Stanford really change your view of your lot? They are good people and good talents, but they aren't game-changers and they won't get you a job any more than Luxon will. 6) Having done the hard yards, why quit now? The prize is just down the road and with a second term perceptions change. 7) The coalition as an operation is a success. Three parties have, and do, work well together. It's MMP in action. The alternative? Hipkins talking about a minority Government, a Green Party and extremism and a Māori Party that will not be back in anywhere near the numbers they have now. It's not a combo. This must all sit heavily with Luxon. How could it not? But that is what leadership is about. That is what you chased and bought into. If you think you will fail you will automatically be successful.

AWT's in‑person technical training is a keystone for developing competent water treaters. Yet classroom knowledge only matters when it survives the drive home and emerges later in the field. In this second conversation with Dan Merritt, CWT—National Sales Manager at CH2O Inc. and head of AWT's education committee—Trace Blackmore uncovers how stories, math, and memorable mistakes turn theory into intuition.  Why training keeps evolving  Dan explains that the Association of Water Technologies rewrites courses every year. Instructors refine content, delivery and demonstrations, not for novelty's sake, but because boilers and cooling towers rarely behave like textbook examples. Recognizing that multiple chemical reactions operate simultaneously helps prevent chasing the wrong problem. Updated program design and operations classes now bridge the gap between fundamentals and advanced topics. Specialized modules for sales, membrane/softener maintenance, ASSE 1280 compliance, and a two‑tier wastewater curriculum ensure that attendees can match coursework to their experience and role.  Lessons from experience: paperwork, PPE and people  Anecdotes ground the theory. Dan recounts losing his Certified Water Technologist status for five years after assuming an office manager filed his recertification paperwork. He re‑sat the exam in 2016 and now tells every candidate: verify your own paperwork. Another incident involved a sulfuric acid injection line that still held pressure; a line blew while he was replacing a fitting, covering his jeans in acid—his apron protected his torso, but he still had six‑inch holes in his pants. "Wear your PPE" is his first piece of advice to new technicians. Beyond safety, Dan highlights that water treatment careers demand communication and management skills. Technical strengths don't automatically translate into leadership; becoming a mentor and training others brings lasting fulfillment.    Developing a growth mindset For new practitioners, Dan recommends learning from whoever will teach you and embracing the "nerdy" parts of the job—math, chemistry and calculations translate directly into customer value. After the first year it's easy to plateau, so he urges veterans to intentionally take on new technologies such as wastewater treatment or chlorine dioxide and to share knowledge with younger colleagues. This industry can't be automated or offshored; field troubleshooting will always require hands‑on expertise. Even in sales roles, success comes from offering solutions grounded in a deep technical foundation.  Looking ahead  The episode closes with a call to prepare for AWT's upcoming training seminars (March 10–13 and November 11–14). Attendees should bring system data and be ready to teach one takeaway to their teams when they return. Scaling Up! H2O encourages listeners to invest in their careers, meet peers and instructors, and approach each technical challenge as an opportunity to raise the bar for the entire industry.

This week's episode is a Q&A-style deep dive into common fitness questions that deserve more than a quick comment-section answer.Coach JK takes real questions pulled from social media and everyday coaching conversations and unpacks the nuance behind them. Topics include:• Is a two-hour workout actually productive, or just busy?• Why bodybuilding/bikini competitor style plans don't work for busy parents and entrepreneurs• What to do when you feel like quitting your fitness journey altogetherJK helps you understand how lifestyle, frequency, recovery, and real-world responsibilities change what “optimal” actually looks like. You'll hear practical examples of how to structure training when time is limited, why competitor protocols don't automatically translate to everyday life, and how to shift from all-or-nothing thinking when motivation dips.If you're tired of surface-level fitness answers and want clarity you can actually apply to your life, this one's for you.------Instagram: @coachJKmcleodEmail: JK@jkmcleod.com

Jessica Palacios was two semesters away from her nursing degree when she walked into a patient's room mid-clinical and found an elderly woman alone in the dark, covered in bed sores, on the wrong mattress, with photos of her family taped to her IV pump. When Jessica raised the alarm, her professor told her to worry about it when she was a real nurse. She sat in her driveway and cried for 30 minutes that evening. That one moment sent her on a decade-long journey through accounting, psychology, sociology, and business before a faculty advisor finally looked at her history and said, you should be in HR. What followed was a 20+ year career at the Texas A&M University System, where Jessica now serves as Associate Director of System Benefits Administration, overseeing healthcare and benefits for over 50,000 covered lives across one of the largest university systems in the United States. In this episode of Inspiring Women, host Laurie McGraw sits down with Jessica to unpack the full journey, the pivots, the promotions, the hard feedback, and the leadership lessons that only come from doing it the hard way. They discuss: The clinical experience that forced Jessica to walk away from nursing and what it still teaches her about advocacy today How she accidentally stumbled into benefits while working at Webb County before she even had her degree What it was like to be thrust into management early with no guidance and be told her tone was a problem The HR director who sat her down with emotional intelligence books and met with her every week until something shifted Why she believes benefits is the single greatest place in any organisation to change an employee's life outside of their paycheck How she now intentionally invests in her team's growth, certifications, master's degrees, vendor relationships and beyond Jessica Palacios is proof that the career you planned and the career you're meant for are rarely the same thing, and that a life spent in service to people can take more shapes than you ever expected.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Hi, thank you for the podcast, I am long time listener, first time asker. Something weird is going on at my company. A colleague of my always wanted to get promoted to management, he got the opportunity, but after multiple preparatory meeting for this new promotion, HE QUIT! He did not tell what happened there, only that “it was time for something new”. Now several months later my skip level declared that he wants to be a developer again. Another manager was offered his position, which is a significant promotion (basically head of engineering), which he accepted, but after being included into high level meetings he declared that he is also QUITTING! We now have an interim Head of engineering, who declared that he is only doing this until a replacement is found. Why does no one wants to be in the management? What is happening at these meetings that people leave? Btw. the financial state of the company is not great, but not horrible, the CEO even declared that there won't be layoffs this year. So what's going on? I really like working at this company, but I can't shake the feeling after these events that I am up for a big surprise soon. Hi, I'm a senior dev at a megacorp. I'm struggling with AI. We've got a lot of initiatives around it and are expected to be using it with our work. The problem is every time I try to use it I get really frustrated. It feels like working with a junior dev who doesn't know the codebase well but knows lots of language/framework trivia. I also feel displeasure in my work turning into just reviewing some generated code and fixing it up. Especially, when you have to be very thorough because we all know that a single line of code can cause an outage. I just find no joy in this kind of work and am starting to have an aversion to it even when I just try to learn more about it. I'm also having a hard time teasing apart the hype from the reality. I'm either hearing that “the models are so great, this is the future, coding isn't a career anymore” or “this is hype, the bubble will burst soon and ruin everything.” Both of these outcomes seem kinda catastrophic but I have no idea which one to believe in (or maybe there's a 3rd option?). So, how do I overcome this aversion? How do I make sense of the hype vs. reality? How do I learn to stop worrying and love the slop? Thanks, Dr. Strangecode

Has an internet jerk ever told you to give up on houseplants because you clearly suck at the hobby? Well, after 30 years with my own plants and 12+ years in the industry, apparently it's time for me to quit. Or it would be if I listened to advice from some rando. So here's me telling you not to quit - even after you killed the third philo brandi and swear you'll never try again. Even after your whole collection gets mites because of that impulse calathea. Even after you forget another plant on that high shelf. And yes, even if someone is mean to you. Your friendly neighborhood houseplant coach says that following your heart (to plants!) is the only choice

What really happens when you try to quit sugar — and why perfection isn't required to experience freedom. Episode #246

Joel Parkinson is a Gold Coast surfing icon; a CT standout with 11 CT wins, 3 Hawaiian Triple Crowns, 4 World Runner-Ups, the 2012 World Champion, and is globally-renowned as one of the most stylish and consistent competitors in modern surfing history.  In this year's first episode of The Lineup, he reflects on the journey that defined his career. Parko opens with the grassroots of Australian surfing, from Snapper Rocks Boardriders' 60+ year history to why club culture remains the backbone of the sport. He rewinds the tape back to when he was a young 11-year-old grom signing with Billabong for discounted boardshorts–and three decades later, still part of the team, a partnership that endured the ups and downs of brand-athlete relationships in surfing. He reveals how close he came to jumping ship to Rip Curl as a teenager, the jaw-dropping offer from Quiksilver in his early 20s, and why loyalty ultimately won.  Parko reflects on sharing a team with legends like Mark Occhilupo, Taj Burrow, and Luke Egan, and what it was like witnessing Andy Irons at his peak during the Blue Horizon era. He also shares the unforgettable story of Andy claiming the top room at the Billabong house in Hawaii—rankings be damned. The conversation shifts to life on Tour: traveling with his wife and kids long before it was common, the emotional toll of chasing a World Title while raising a family, and why his wife “deserves more of a World Title” than he does.  Parko opens up about nearly quitting in 2011 after a brutal New York event, how letting go reshaped his mindset, and the constant mental weight surfers carry when fighting for a Top 5. He dives into his rivalry and lifelong friendship with Mick Fanning and Dean Morrison, addresses the “style” narrative that followed him throughout his career, and gets deep into board talk—from early DHD days to his long partnership with JS Industries, including the mythical board that went 17 heats undefeated.

In this episode, Caroline shares why she thinks the PTA can be exhausting and why she finally quit. She explains how her immigrant parents (Cuban and Venezuelan) didn't understand the American school system and rarely showed up to her school events, which hurt her as a kid. As a mom now, she became extremely overprotective and tried to do everything her parents didn't do, including volunteering nonstop. She describes how she got pressured into school volunteer roles—art docent (even though she couldn't draw), then room parent, then joining the board and leading the school's biggest fundraiser gala. The situation escalated when she was called into a meeting because of an Instagram story where she expressed frustration about how a school issue was handled (without naming the school or teachers). She pushed back hard, questioned why staff were watching and sharing her content, and decided to leave the PTA and eventually the school. She reflects that the PTA politics, gossip, and pressure made her crankier and less happy, and that quitting made her a better mom and wife because her time with her kids became higher quality. She encourages listeners do what they love and stop dimming their light to fit in, and prioritize their own happiness while still being a good mom.Find Caroline: IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.carolineFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcarolineSearch Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/Shop Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotMusic Credit: Nikka Costa – “It's Just Love”Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Amy Jo Martin built one of the first social media agencies because Shaq told her to. True story. Seven years later, she shut it down. Not because it failed, but because it worked in a way that locked her into a life she didn't want. Walking away gave her the freedom to decide what to build next. Since then, she's scaled multiple 8-figure companies, written bestselling books, and hosts the Why Not Now? podcast where she's interviewed countless celebrities.  This conversation is packed with value for entrepreneurs building at every stage. We also go deep on what building a social media agency in 2009 can teach us about AI today — and what that means if you're building anything right now.   Key Takeaways with Amy Jo Martin (00:00) Intro (01:25) Social Media in 2009 vs AI Today (04:18) The Only Metric That Actually Matters (06:38) Shaq Told Me to Quit My Job (11:39) Is AI a Trampoline or a Trap?

Hey Powerhouses! This week we're talking about what happens when you wake up and realize you're living someone else's perfect life—and what it takes to create one that actually fits. Wendy Meadows, seasoned family law attorney, former litigator, certified life coach, mediator, and author of the bestselling book Sparkling Grit, joins us to share her journey from BigLaw burnout to building a practice (and life) on her own terms.We dive into why Wendy left her firm after 13 years (spoiler: asking permission for vacation was the last straw), how Beachbody coaching taught her more about running a business than law school ever did, and why so many lawyers who go solo end up making MORE money while working fewer hours than they ever imagined. Wendy breaks down the math (yes, there's a spreadsheet), walks us through the hardest part of going solo (the breakup conversation with your partners), and explains why hiring an assistant before you think you need one is non-negotiable.We also talk about the Sparkle and Grit framework—why you need both the feminine (sparkle) and masculine (grit) energy to succeed, how to recognize burnout before you hit the wall, and why 2026 is Wendy's year of "ease." Plus, Wendy gets real about her divorce, redefining success on her own terms, and learning to let opportunities flow to her instead of grinding for them.And yes, she wore two different shoes to court.

#401 In this episode, Guy talked with Julian Polzin, a former psychotherapist turned spiritual teacher, and shared his profound awakening experience that began while grieving on a graveyard bench in Germany, leading to a complete dissolution of ego and entry into samadhi.  Through deep meditation practices, he began remembering hundreds of past lives as a Buddhist monk and yogi, receiving downloads of ancient yogic systems and experiencing visions of Atlantis and its fall due to spiritual corruption and transhumanist technology. He explained how dark entities on the astral plane compete for human souls by offering temptations that disconnect people from divine will, and how the Buddhist system was designed to counteract the Atlantean karma of the hyperactive intellect separated from God. Julian warned that humanity is repeating the Atlantean pattern with AI, transhumanism, and recent technological interventions that disconnect individuals from divine current, leading to a timeline split between those who surrender to God and those who fall into ego gratification. Now based in Peru's Sacred Valley, he works to build a monastery and teaches proper spiritual discernment, emphasizing that true liberation requires total surrender, renunciation of worldly attachments, and the guidance of a genuine teacher assigned by divine will. About Julian: Julian practices and teaches Zen-Buddhist methods in combination with the Yogic realization process and various other mystical practices. On his spiritual path he opened himself to mystical insight. He experienced realization beyond physical experience which changed his therapeutic approach.  In 2021 he traveled to Nepal to meditate in holy places to experience the land, ancient energies and intelligences of a non-material nature. He practiced psychotherapy in Germany for seven years, but moved on from the method after experiencing the limitations of the psychotherapeutic framework.  Now he focusses on sharing spiritual teachings of direct inquiry to assist his clients in realizing themselves through the mystical experience.

"If you choose to quit and run away, you're 100% guaranteed to not get the result that you came for." In this episode, Heather shares an honest conversation about emotional endurance, how it's not the "hustle-hard, push-through" version we've been sold, and why it's important to stay with yourself when things get uncomfortable, inconvenient, or uncertain. She unpacks why reinvention often stalls out when self-abandonment is mistaken for strength, how real lightness comes from honoring capacity rather than overriding it, and what it actually means to keep going without betraying yourself. If you've ever felt torn between wanting more and feeling the weight of resistance from yourself or those around you, this episode is an invitation to redefine endurance as knowing when to lean in and when to take a damn break. What to listen for: ✨ The real reason most people aren't doing the work to reinvent themselves ✨ Heather's love letter on not abandoning yourself and creating more lightness ✨ Navigating resistance from the people around you as you go for more "You won't feel lighter or freer by forcing yourself to push harder. It doesn't come from endurance alone; it comes when you stop betraying your capacity in the name of proving you can handle more." ✨ Teaching your family and the people around you how to lead themselves ✨ Sitting with the discomfort of doing the shit that you don't want to do ✨ Why leaning into discomfort is part of what guarantees success "Become the change you want to see in the world around what you have control over. It's really hard for people to understand that concept because they self-abandon all the time." ✨ Why you need to play with identifying as somebody who isn't avoidant ✨ What do you need to do in alignment with how you want to feel? ✨ You can't give to other people while self-abandoning "Emotional endurance is looking within, leaning in when you need to be more curious, leaning out when you need a fucking break. Just don't quit." ✨ The difference between performative action and real leadership ✨ Co-creating your life with the people in it and without abandoning yourself ✨ Why emotional endurance has nothing to do with how heavy you feel *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me for a one-on-one Time & Energy Audit, a focused session designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

When the storm comes, giraffes don't run. They don't hide. They stand tall and face away from it. Maybe that's exactly what we need to do. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor shares one of his favorite late-night research discoveries and the powerful life lesson hidden in how giraffes handle storms. At three in the morning, a random question led to a fascinating insight: where do giraffes hide when it rains? The answer is simple and powerful. They don't. Instead of trying to curl up or seek shelter they can't find, giraffes stand tall and face away from the storm. Researchers suggest that lying down in mud would require more energy to get back up once the storm passes. So they take it head-on, minimizing impact and conserving strength. Baylor connects this to how humans handle adversity. When storms hit in relationships, careers, or personal growth, most people run, hide, blame, or avoid. Very few choose to stand tall and deal with it proactively. Using boxing as another analogy, Baylor explains the concept of rolling with the punches. You're going to get hit. Storms are inevitable. But how you position yourself determines how much damage you take. Avoidance often makes problems worse. Letting issues simmer in silence, refusing hard conversations, or running from mistakes only increases the energy required to fix them later. The longer you wait, the heavier the mud becomes. The message is simple: storms are part of life. Quitting only makes it harder to restart. Stand tall. Be proactive. And remember that every storm eventually ends. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why storms are unavoidable in life What giraffes teach us about resilience How avoidance increases long-term damage The power of being proactive during adversity Why quitting costs more energy than enduring How to minimize impact by "rolling with the punches" Featured Quote "Storms are coming either way. The question is whether you're going to run from them or stand tall through them."

What if the career you want is hiding on the other side of a conversation you're afraid to have? In this powerful episode of Negotiate Anything, host Kwame Christian sits down with Scott Anthony Barlow, founder of Happen to Your Career and newly minted #1 Amazon bestselling author, to unpack the hidden role that difficult conversations play in career fulfillment and success. Together, they explore why so many professionals negotiate themselves into roles they don't actually want — and how clarity, self-honesty, and truth-telling can completely change the outcome. Scott shares eye-opening stories from his coaching practice, including real-life examples of professionals who redefined their roles, negotiated more autonomy, and even worked fewer hours while earning more — simply by getting clear on what they wanted and having the courage to ask for it. The conversation dives deep into introspection, cognitive distortions, and why telling the truth is often the most underrated (and effective) negotiation strategy. If you've ever felt stuck, undervalued, or uncertain about your next career move, this episode will challenge the way you think about work, negotiation, and success — and give you practical tools to start creating a career that actually fits.

Dr. Read Montague, PhD, is a professor and director of the Center for Human Neuroscience Research at Virginia Tech and an expert in how dopamine and serotonin shape human learning, motivation and decision-making. We discuss how they impact focused effort in the context of short- and long-term goals of all kinds. Also, how SSRIs and low-effort, high-engagement activities reduce the rewarding properties of dopamine, and how AI algorithms are revolutionizing understanding of the brain.

Eight rental properties. That's all you need to retire early. Don't believe us? Today's guest went from corporate life to early retirement, generating over $100,000 per year in cash flow thanks to a small, powerful rental property portfolio. He didn't start with a ton of money, and he had no experience. But he followed a simple, genius strategy: Save, buy, repeat, pay off. Vicente Garcia wanted to build a college fund for his children. When he moved to a new home, he realized he had an income-producing asset right in front of him. So, he turned his old primary residence into a rental, recognized its potential, and a few years later bought his first full-fledged investment property.  By combining savings from his job, recycling his properties' cash flow, and using 401(k) loans (an incredibly underrated tool), Vicente grew to eight rental properties. His goal? Not to scale, but to slowly pay off the portfolio. Now, in his 50s, Vicente has six-figure cash flow, a paid-off rental portfolio of eight properties, and only one thing on his mind: what's next?  In This Episode We Cover Don't sell, rent instead! The life-changing effects of turning your primary residence into a rental  Don't have enough for a down payment? Why a 401(k) loan could get you your first (or next) rental faster  Paying off your rentals vs. buying more: The strong argument for a small, debt-free portfolio  It's not too late to start! Why you're only around a decade away from retirement with real estate Why Vicente says now may be one of the best times to begin investing in years   And So Much More!
