Most people think the gym is where the magic happens, but the real calorie-burner might be everything you're doing outside of it. Dr. Andrew Fix introduces the concept of NEAT (Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis) and explains why these unstructured movements might be your biggest opportunity for burning calories and boosting energy. Think walking to the store, standing at your desk, or carrying your groceries instead of pushing a cart. These moments may seem minor, but they can add up to 30% or more of your daily energy expenditure. How much are you really moving outside the gym? Are you relying too heavily on your workouts to do all the heavy lifting? This episode makes a strong case for rethinking how we approach weight loss and daily activity. If your goal is to increase energy, feel better in your body, or make progress without overhauling your routine, this is a strategy worth paying attention to. Quotes “Most people that exercise regularly, this is only accounting for like 5% to 10%. Think about how much time in the day you spend exercising compared to what you spend doing other things.” (03:23 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Little things can add up and make a huge difference.” (04:41 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “This NEAT can really be a game changer when it comes to: Is somebody getting enough movement in? How many calories are you actually burning throughout the day?” (05:31 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “One of the most powerful and beneficial things you can do anyways for your health is, from a blood sugar standpoint, if you could structure it to go for a 5- or 10-minute walk after each of your meals.” (06:57 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Something as small as tapping your foot, fidgeting, getting down on the floor when you're watching a television show or a game or a movie, and do some light mobility work or some light stretching, as opposed to sitting on the couch… it doesn't have to be complicated, but it can be super powerful.” (08:24 | Dr. Andrew Fix) Links https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/07/22/1189303227/neat-fitness-non-exercise-activity-thermogenesis SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS Movemate: Award-Winning Active Standing Board https://shorturl.at/egkA1 Promo Code: DRA15 15% off RAD Roller: http://radroller.refr.cc/drandrewfix Revogreen https://revogreen.co/drandrewfix HYDRAGUN https://bit.ly/43rAtnX Athletic Brewing: 20% off: https://athleticbrewing.rfrl.co/vrmx8 20% off: ANDREWF20 Connect with Physio Room: Website | https://physioroomco.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/physioroomco/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/physioroomco Andrew's Personal Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/drandrewfix/ Andrew's Personal Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/andrew.fix.9/ Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

In this episode of The Cricket Matters Podcast, we're diving into three muscles that every cricketer absolutely must release to perform at their best. We break down what these muscles do, why they get tight, and how you can effectively release them to avoid pain and play better. Whether you're a bowler, batter, or just battling shoulder stiffness, this one's for you.You'll Learn:Why the Teres Major, Obliques, and Tensor Fascia Latae (TFL) are crucial for cricketers. These muscles often get overlooked but play a huge role in movement, performance, and pain prevention.Foam rolling techniques and manual therapy suggestions to release deep muscular tension. From massage balls to dry needling, we cover methods to help you recover faster.Why Rotation is Key for Cricketers. We highlight the chain reaction poor mobility has on your entire performance.How Often You Need to Work on These Muscles. We share how to build these practices into your training routine.Key Takeaways:Teres Major Is More Important Than You Think This deep shoulder muscle often becomes overactive, leading to restricted rotation and pain. Addressing it can significantly improve shoulder function and throwing mechanics.The Obliques Aren't Just for Aesthetics Overactive obliques inhibit trunk rotation, which is essential for batting and bowling. Foam rolling and targeted release techniques are essential for restoring full movement.The TFL Plays a Hidden but Powerful Role Located at the side of the hip, the TFL helps with hip and knee stability. When tight, it interferes with hip mobility and overall athletic movement.Release Equals Performance Releasing these muscles improves flexibility, power transfer, and body coordination. It's a non-negotiable for serious cricketers who want to stay injury-free and sharp.It's a Repetitive Process These techniques should become a consistent part of your training routine. Long-term gains come from short-term discomfort—lean into it.Quotes:“Most people have never done their obliques before, and it hurts like hell—but you'll thank me later.”“You can't just do it once and expect magic—it's something you have to revisit.”“Rotation is everything in cricket, and these muscles are usually the reason it's not happening.”Find James on: Instagram: @jamesbreese Twitter: @_jamesbreese To learn more about Cricket Matters and download your FREE copy of The High-Performance Handbook, please visit www.cricketmatters.com

Welcome to the Cricket Matters podcast! Today, we're diving deep into the world of cricket bats—specifically, how bat weight and shape impact your technique. If you've ever wondered whether your bat is helping or hurting your game, this episode will give you the insights you need.You'll Learn:The Role of Bat Weight in Your Technique – A bat that's too heavy can force you to rely too much on your bottom hand, while a bat that's too light might make you swing too fast, leading to mistimed shots. Finding the right balance is key to optimal performance.How Bat Shape Affects Your Play – The profile of your bat (low, mid, or high) should match the conditions you play in. Different shapes influence how the bat picks up and swings through, impacting control and power.The Science Behind Power and Timing – The equation for power isn't just strength times speed—it's also influenced by time and lag in your bat swing. Understanding this can help you choose a bat that maximizes your shot-making ability.How to Find the Right Bat for You – There's no one-size-fits-all solution. Testing different weights and profiles through trial and error is crucial to discovering what works best for your playing style.Key Takeaways:Balance is Everything – A bat needs to feel right in your hands. The way it picks up and moves through your swing is more important than just its raw weight.Heavier Bats Aren't Always Better – If you can't generate enough speed with a heavy bat, it might actually reduce your power. Strength alone isn't enough—you need speed and control.Your Playing Conditions Matter – If you play on slow, low-bouncing pitches, a low-profile bat works better. On faster, bouncier pitches, a higher-profile bat helps with backfoot play.Grip Strength Influences Control – If your bat is too heavy and your grip strength isn't up to par, your bottom hand will take over, leading to technical issues.The Best Test? Top-Hand Only Drills – A simple way to check if your bat suits you is to hit shots using only your top hand. If you struggle, your bat might be too heavy or not the right shape for you.Quotes:“Most bats are too heavy for players, and that forces bad technique—especially an overactive bottom hand.”“Trial and error is the only way to find your perfect bat. What works for one player won't necessarily work for another.”“If you can't control the bat with just your top hand, you're either not strong enough, or the bat isn't right for you.”Find James on: Instagram: @jamesbreese Twitter: @_jamesbreese To learn more about Cricket Matters and download your FREE copy of The High-Performance Handbook, please visit www.cricketmatters.com

“Nothing is ever as complicated as we make it,” says Gill Moakes of life and entrepreneurship. The award-winning ICF certified business coach and podcast host discusses the power of taking calculated risks in business. Gill explains how trusting oneself and making bold decisions can drive both business and personal growth. She highlights the specific challenges that women entrepreneurs face, including mental barriers and societal expectations, urging women to actively choose success and develop the courage to take bigger risks.Gill delves into the impact of limiting beliefs and the pursuit of external validation on entrepreneurs' risk-taking abilities. She shares personal stories and professional insights to show how reevaluating one's self-image and challenging ingrained beliefs can lead to greater business success and personal fulfillment.Exploring broader aspects of entrepreneurship, Gill covers the trade-off between the perceived stability of traditional employment and the autonomy—and accompanying instability—of running one's own business. She emphasizes that having control over one's decisions, despite the risks involved, provides a unique form of security that traditional jobs often do not offer.Quotes“Most women entrepreneurs need support. They need coaches. They need mentors. They need people around them—a community to be able to cultivate the courage to start playing a bigger game, to start taking the risks. A lot of women struggle to choose themselves for success.” (03:54 | Gill Moakes) “Nothing is ever as complicated as we make it. I think that's probably my biggest insight.” (37:43 | Gill Moakes) “People love to complicate their business so much and it doesn't have to be that complicated. Business is about three things. Be a nice person. Don't be an idiot—be better at what you do than most people. Just be outstandingly good at what you do. And thirdly, put relationships above algorithms. Do those three things.” (38:04 | Gill Moakes) LinksConnect with Gill Moakes:Social Media Handles: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gillmoakes/ Insta - @gillmoakes Substack - https://substack.com/@gillmoakes Website URLS: https://www.gillmoakes.com/ https://www.gillmoakes.com/podcast Connect with Welcome to ElomaInstagram: @welcometoelomaWebsite: WelcometoEloma.comConnect with KileySocial: @kileypeters + Linkedin.com/in/kileypetersWebsites: RAYNEIX.com, KileyPeters.comWeekly Email Newsletter: RIXNewsletter.comEmail: info@rayneix.comPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Recounting her journey from burnout to a revitalized career, Dr. Salyer shares how she reshaped her definition of freedom to extend far beyond financial wealth, emphasizing autonomy, creativity, and personal well-being. Dr. Salyer recalls the traditional motivations that draw many into medicine—job security and financial stability—and challenges these conventional markers of success. She shares stories from fellow healthcare professionals who found greater freedom through unexpected avenues: one found joy and a renewed sense of self in dance classes; another realized that reducing their workload enhanced their personal freedom; and a third embraced the simple choice of selecting their breakfast as a symbol of autonomy. By encouraging her listeners to discard limiting beliefs of what freedom must look like, Dr. Salyer promotes a reimagined approach to medical careers that prioritizes personal values and well-being alongside professional achievements. Her message is clear: reevaluating your concept of freedom can lead to more rewarding and sustainable careers in healthcare. Quotes • “Most of our conceptions around freedom, when you boil it down, it does pertain to financial wealth. And that's very narrow when you think about it.” (03:15 | Dr. Lara Salyer) • “If we aren't clear about what freedom means to us personally, we can run the risk of chasing after the wealthy dream of someone else. And that really isn't our unique definition of freedom.” (03:53 | Dr. Lara Salyer) • “Freedom has a larger definition when you strip away just the end results of finances. If you start to think of freedom as a state of mind, it has a whole different meaning in your body.” (05:15 | Dr. Lara Salyer) • “Freedom doesn't just land on your lap, just like creativity doesn't just land on your shoulder and inspire a book or a novel or an art project. You need to practice this muscle every day, the sixth vital sign of creativity. You need to look for opportunities to be playful and creative, just like you need to look for daily affirmations of freedom wherever it shows up in your life. You must initiate them. And the way I like to advise practitioners to look for ways of freedom is being mindful of how their body feels.” (06:18 | Dr. Lara Salyer) Links Catalyst Archetype Quiz: https://3nb09zv7070.typeform.com/archetype?typeform-source=mail.google.com Episode 6: Quick Interactive Core Value Exercise to Unlock Lightning Fast Decision Making: https://drlarasalyer.com/2022/04/01/episode-6-quick-interactive-core-value-exercise-to-unlock-lightning-fast-decision-making/ Connect with Lara: Website: https://drlarasalyer.com The Catalyst Way: https://drlarasalyer.com/catalyst Instagram: @drlarasalyer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drlarasalyer Linked-In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlarasalyer/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrLaraSalyer TikTok: @Creativity.Doctor Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
Marketing is really lovely underneath it all. Sometimes you just need a little inspiration.And this week, we're bringing you marketing lessons from the Grammy-winning and diamond-certified album holders, No Doubt. Together, with the help of the Director of Product Marketing at GetResponse, we're talking about going pop with your content, sharing the good with the bad, and so much more.About our guest, Abby HehemannAbby Hehemann is Director of Product Marketing at GetResponse, a comprehensive email marketing platform that provides small businesses, solopreneurs, coaches, and marketers with powerful and affordable tools to grow their audience, engage with their subscribers, and turn subscribers into paying customers. Prior to joining GetResponse in January of 2023, Abby served as Director of Product Marketing at Coursedog. She also spent nearly 9 years in marketing at GetResponse previously. She specializes in strategic product positioning and value-driven messaging. She has a demonstrated history of high impact GTM, lead gen, activation, and retention campaigns. She's skilled in Digital Marketing, Customer Education, Email Marketing, Marketing Automation, and Content Marketing. She is a customer-first and product-obsessed – with an MBA from the University of Central Arkansas.What B2B Companies Can Learn From No Doubt:Go pop with your content (Hint: Use AI). No Doubt expanded their audience by transitioning from niche ska music to pop. And they did it without losing what made them unique - namely Gwen as an iconic frontwoman and lyrics based on her lived experience. You can expand your audience too by putting out content on new and unique channels you haven't accessed before and the trick is using AI. Abby says, “Using an AI tool, we could still use our own content, what we wanted to communicate with our unique voice, but experiment with a new format, like a comic book. This is a way we're trying to figure out how to adapt and evolve with new technologies and be more efficient, but in a way that's still foundational to what we care about and the content is still in our voice and our perspective.”Share the good with the bad. Talk about your mistakes and shortcomings as well as your strengths and successes. It builds trust, relatability and likeability. It's like how No Doubt's album, Tragic Kingdom, was about Gwen's breakup with her bassist, Tony. It's not a positive experience, but it became their diamond-certified album because it spoke to listeners. Abby says, “Not that you need to air all of your mistakes, but the idea of like, that is what authenticity is, right? You share the good with the bad. You share the parts of your life where you're vulnerable. And that's like what artists are doing. It's just something that we don't do in B2B marketing.”Quotes*”Most new startups and SaaS orgs emerge solving a very specific problem for a very specific audience, which is excellent. And that makes you special and unique and have a really strong selling point. But then the next thing is on scaling. How do we do this for more people? And then you have such a risk of diluting what makes you special. If you try to expand, it's super risky. It's risky for you to try to do more often with less and still make a big impact.” - Abby Hehemann*”The one with the most customer insights - the one who knows what customers are feeling, what they're saying, what words they're using - you win. You have clout in a meeting. You have the most legitimacy. You should be driving conversations and doing whatever it takes on your team to figure out how to have access to your customers.” - Abby Hehemann*”B2B content marketing gets such a bad rap for being a sea of sameness, super boring, not distinctive. Everybody's talking about driving revenue and getting more leads. And you don't know who's saying it. It doesn't even matter. There's no distinctive tone of voice, point of view, who's talking about what. And I think that definitely points to the need for authenticity. That's what we're craving as humans, even though we're representing companies purchasing software. We're still wanting to make those connections and actually have some element in our brain that recognizes, ‘Oh, this is an actual human being I'm trying to do business with.” - Abby HehemannTime Stamps[0:55] Meet Abby Hehemann, Director of Product Marketing at GetResponse[4:25] The Remarkable Journey of No Doubt: From Ska Band to Pop Icons[8:02] Gwen Stefani's Evolution: A Deep Dive into Her Creative Process[13:54] No Doubt's Transition to Pop: A Lesson in Authenticity and Branding[19:47] B2B Marketing Insights: Drawing Lessons from No Doubt's Success[27:03] Decoding the Iconic 'No Doubt' Album Cover[28:11] Evolving from Ska to Pop: No Doubt's Musical Journey[29:10] Adapting to Market Changes: Lessons from No Doubt[29:37] Embracing AI and Generative Content in Marketing[30:36] The Power of Email Marketing and User-Generated Content[32:25] Innovative Marketing: The Comic Book Experiment[34:24] Employer Branding and Gender Representation[37:56] Content Strategy Insights from GetResponse[47:03] The Future of Content Creation and Marketing[51:57] The Essential Role of Customer Insights in MarketingLinksListen to No DoubtConnect with Abby on LinkedInLearn more about GetResponseAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

How's the romance in your marriage? How does it compare to when you were dating? (… and does that matter?)

Sometimes we have to go ahead and do them, so that we feel it again.” - Dr. Kim Kimberling “Marriage is a lot better when you've got romance in it.” - Dr. Kim Kimberling “I think we'd like it to come naturally, like it does in the movies “It's ok to have the conversation. We have to get past the mindset of, ‘If you really loved me, you'd know.'” - Dr. Kim Kimberling “Romance is a great way to show your spouse, I see you, I appreciate you, and I care about what you care about.” Lindsay Few QUESTIONS FOR YOU Have you talked about romance with your spouse?

Years ago, the standard approach to obesity in primary care was to “eat less and move more.” Now, we've come to learn that without intensive behavioral support, that approach is largely ineffective. What many people don't know is that obesity medicine is actually a medical specialty on its own that focuses on the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of obesity.If you're struggling with the physician you're currently working with, feeling they offer little guidance and understanding about anti-obesity medications, and offer no accountability, finding an obesity medicine physician might be the next step for you. When you're looking for a physician, one of the first things you need to decide is what kind of care you're looking for. So in this episode, I'm exploring three different options to consider: in-person weight management clinics, telehealth practices, and direct primary care clinics. (You'll also discover the red flags you need to look out for when making your decision!)References:ABOM.orgFinding a DPC (direct primary care) physician: https://mapper.dpcfrontier.com/Audio stamps: 02:12 - Dr. Rentea discusses the role of an obesity medicine physician and when you might need to look for one.04:16 - We find out why most people are not going to get all of their help from one person.05:28 - Dr. Rentea explains why you don't need to have struggled with your weight to be a good physician in this space.06:22 - It's important to decide if you want to see someone in person or virtually. Dr. Rentea discusses the in-person experience and how to go about finding the right physician.13:58 - We learn about telehealth options, like Dr. Rentea's practice, and what to look out for when considering this option.21:26 - We find out why direct primary care could also be a good, inclusive option to consider.23:42 - Dr. Rentea shares some of the red flags to be aware of when finding an obesity medicine physician.Quotes:“Most people are not going to get all of their help from one person.” - Matthea Rentea MD“Not everybody needs to have struggled with weight for them to be a good physician in this space.” - Matthea Rentea MD“I really think that we've gotten a lot of this information wrong over time. We've really just thought about the scale going down in general, but we've not thought about what the body composition is and how you can best manage your blood sugar and how to bring this all together in a way that's not overwhelming.” - Matthea Rentea MD“You need to like who you're working with. At least that's what I found is that if you don't like the physician, you don't want to listen to what they're saying, and you don't want to do anything.” - Matthea Rentea MD“Everyone's different. You might not respond to what's being offered and all of us are unique. - Matthea Rentea MDAnd so if there are these really high guarantees, it's just a big red flag to me.” - Matthea Rentea MDAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

What does it take to be a rainmaker? Scott Love is here to tell you. An award-winning legal recruiter, keynote speaker, author and podcast host, he's also a former Naval officer, professional card-counting black jack player and currently a passionate painter. All of these varied experiences have taught him invaluable lessons about leadership, business development, sales and growth, and he joins Chris today to share some of these lessons. People are always observing and firms will find any reason to disqualify people, he explains. You must give them a reason to trust you and see you as a leader. This means being humble enough to recognize what you don't know, and be willing to learn–for the rest of your life. This develops an unshakeable sense of self and authenticity that will naturally encourage people to follow you. He'll share what works and doesn't work for getting hired by law firms, especially when many are hesitant to want to grow. Cultivating yourself and being well-rounded help you define your core values and life purpose, which will set you apart as a rainmaker. Quotes “Most of it was taking my lunch hour, and instead of watching Matlock reruns, I would watch Tony Burn training tapes. Okay, VHS tape, Steve Finkel. And I, anytime I would make a placement when I started my own thing, I would say, ‘I'm going to take 10% of my fees and invest it in coaching, seminars, books, CDs.' Anytime there's a motivational speaker coming to town, I would go to it. Whatever they're selling, I'm buying. So that was my whole philosophy, and still to this day, there is more that I don't know than what I do know, and until that changes, I'm always going to consider myself a student.” (3:36 | Scott) “One thing that I learned was that if I put 100% into something, I'm gonna get 100% return. If I put 80% into something I'm gonna get about a 20% return.” (5:26 | Scott) “Trust me on this. When you know exactly who you are, what motivates you and where you're going, that becomes incredibly attractive to other people. People don't want to be pushed, but they're OK following someone. So you have to become someone who is followable.” (14:20 | Scott) If you follow certain principles of game theory in client development, that helps you to number one, make effective decisions; number two, be effective in your execution; and number three, take the sting out of disappointment. And in business development, there is disappointment every day. That's 80% of it.” (21:04 | Scott) “I look for people that have leadership skills. I don't care how much time you spent in the library. Tell me what you did before. Tell me about where you were. Did you play sports? Were you a musician? You've got to practice three or four hours a day as a kid without your mom telling you to do it, and you've got to take direction, and realize it's not all about you in a symphony. So those are the things that I think make a richer experience in life and also add to the zest of an organization.” (24:47 | Scott) Links Connect with Scott Love: Podcast: https://therainmakingpodcast.com/ Website: https://attorneysearchgroup.com/ Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theliongroupkc Instagram: @theliongroupllc Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

What is one thing that we can do on a day-to-day basis to protect ourselves and our coworkers? Why do you think that many people believe that fall fatalities only happen at extreme heights? Does anyone have a story about a time where they were working at heights? Quotes: "Most people think that a fatality from a fall has to be from an extreme height to cause a death. That's not the case." "The mining industry is one of the most dangerous occupations in the world." "By providing them with the proper protection and training regarding slips, trips, and falls, we can help save these lives." "This can be a very dangerous industry. But we do have the controls to prevent these types of accidents and injuries." "Working at heights is something that we face often in this industry, and there's actions that we can take."

Today, Dr. Stanton Hom is back for another solocast. In this episode, he will discuss how to effectively support children dealing with nervous system dysregulation, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), ADHD, and a host of behavioral and emotional issues. Dr. Stan will break down a plan to determine the root cause of these issues and how to implement practical strategies to help your children overcome their challenges. You won't want to miss this solocast filled with pearls of wisdom from your host, Dr. Stanton Hom! Quotes: "Most of us don't realize that if we heal from the inside [of] ourselves, if we heal ourselves on the inside, how radically powerful that is, for our children to facilitate their [own] healing." – Dr. Stanton Hom "Many of you are willing to invest in your kids, but you're not willing to go further and invest in yourself. This is as simple as putting your oxygen mask on first." – Dr. Stanton Hom "Heal physically. It is unsustainable not to take care of yourself, and your health sets an example for your children, influencing their lifelong habits." – Dr. Stanton Hom "Be very explicit about who you are, what you represent, and who you bring into your inner circle. Your inner circle is taking care of your family; choose wisely." – Dr. Stanton Hom Key Takeaways: Recognize that healing starts from within, and your own well-being has a profound impact on your child's journey. Be courageous and invest in self-care, as your children's healing is intertwined with your own. Understand that there are no inherently "bad" kids. Behavior is a form of communication, and sometimes opposition or defiance is a reflection of deeper needs. Approach your child's challenges with empathy and a belief in their potential for transformation. Understand that there are no inherently "bad" kids.

Most of us didn't have parents that modeled [leadership skills] for us. Some exceptions to that. We're the lucky ones. But most of us didn't, and most of us didn't take a class in this. So, here we are, thrown into these leadership and management positions. And right now, we're seeing a huge trend as practices consolidate, especially. They are promoting or advancing someone who is maybe a great hygienist or a great assistant, but the skills that they need to be a great team leader are not the same skills as it takes to be a great clinical hygienist. They're different skills. Unless we empower them and train them to have these courageous conversations, these coaching conversations with their team, they will never know how to grow them. That's the whole point of having a leader of a team, is to grow that team into an aligned, capable, independent, self-sufficient, and successful team.” (4:39—5:45)“I've seen a lot of people getting out of management and leadership positions because they are not enjoying it at all.

Deciding to receive a vaccine is not a small decision; it requires an understanding of the science behind it, assessing the possible side effects, and considering potential long-term impacts. Remember, it's not just about immediate protection against disease - it's about your overall health and your family's. In this week's solocast, we continue the celebration of The End of C0V1D with the re-release of our top ten podcast episodes. In this episode, Dr. Stanton Hom addresses a lot of the questions surrounding the C0V1D-19 vaccines. He covers a multitude of facets related to C0V1D-19 and the accompanying vaccines, components of the vaccines, including the controversial spike protein, and how it interacts with our body at a cellular and systemic level. You won't want to miss this informative episode of the Future Generations Podcast with your host, Dr. Stanton Hom!

The first load is being conscious of your stress load; the things that you can control, which is your environment." – Dr. Stanton Hom "The scope of practice for integrative natural providers is different; therefore, your obligation and oath differ. We have to educate on lifestyle, all the things that patients will." – Dr. Stanton Hom "At the end of the day, if they did recognize that the law they're violating harms people, creates segregation, creates an unequal status in society, they wouldn't do it. But the rushing of it, and the continual optics and the continuous psychological operations are devastating." – Dr. Stanton Hom Key Takeaways: Lifestyle plays a crucial role in overall health and well-being. This serves as a reminder that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is as important as receiving medical care. These are the root causes of minor and long-term illnesses. You can avoid chronic illnesses by staying aware of what your body is in contact with and ensuring it receives the necessary nutrients. Medical institutions, businesses, and governments must be held accountable for their actions, especially if they violate laws and cause harm to people. Recognize your rights and stand up for them. Don't rush your decisions, whether getting vaccinated or starting a new medication. Take the time to understand the potential effects and make an informed decision. Never underestimate the power of conversation and spreading awareness. The dialogue surrounding public health issues is ever-ongoing and requires collective participation and informed viewpoints to promote change. Highlights/Timeline: [04:23] – Why does finding the root cause of a disease matter? [09:19] – Dr. Stanton shares the importance of informed consent, especially in medical procedures [17:16] – What is the improper system in healthcare? [23:53] – Dr. Stanton talks about Dr. Tenpenny and his expertise in COVID-19 and vaccinations [36:26] – What is Spike Protein, and how does it affect our body? [45:38] – How long should we quarantine ourselves from the virus? Conclusion: Amidst the information available, it's essential to do thorough research, understand the science, and question the narratives you're given, particularly regarding C0V1D-19 and associated vaccinations. Vaccines are complex biological agents with possible side effects and reactions, some of which may be severe. It is important to be aware of their potential long-term effects on your health, such as fertility and neurological function. The choice behind vaccination is a deeply personal decision that should be made after thorough investigation and consultation with healthcare professionals you trust. Remember, your choices now could affect not just you but future generations. So, think critically, act responsibly, and consider the larger implications of your decisions. Your actions shape the world we will leave behind for our children.

Have you ever wondered how much of the pandemic narrative was true? Have you questioned the science, data, and the policies that have been imposed on us in the name of public health? If you are looking for answers, you are not alone. Countless people around the world are waking up to the reality that we have been lied to and manipulated by those in power. This is why The End of COVID, an upcoming free educational experience, is here to expose the truth about COVID-19 and empower you to reclaim your health and freedom. The show is over—the end of COVID and every pandemic. In this week's solo cast, Dr. Stan will discuss the amazing efforts and work that went into the creation of The End of COVID. He will discuss his insights and discoveries about life and health gained from the four sessions he moderated and two interview sessions. Stay tuned for a more enlightening episode of Dr. Stan's solocast. Quotes: “Most people are unaware that the moms of vaccine-injured children who have been pushing for this in state capitals, legislators' offices, NIH, CDC, and CIP meetings nearly everywhere today are part of the movement for health freedom. This freedom of choice is informed consent, fighting for their children.” “Speaking truth to power with the intention to uplift and inspire those in power is what conviction is about. Silence is complicity, and it's not just about shouting from the mountaintop, condemning and bringing down people; rather, it's about speaking truth to power so that we can prepare ourselves for what may potentially come in the future.” Key Takeaways: Why are so many people, especially parents, joining the health freedom movement? They are fighting for their vaccine-injured children. Though it's not easy to fight for something, everything will be worth it in the end. When you have conviction, you are driven by your inner convictions and willing to stand up for what you believe in, even if facing challenges or opposition. Choosing conviction over complacency means actively pursuing your beliefs and goals, even if it requires effort, risk, or discomfort. Embracing conviction makes you more likely to make a difference and contribute to the greater good.

In the process, we have learned to always do your best to empower, lift, and inspire people. A big part of what we offer to this movement is the re-humanization of individuals who have essentially been marginalized and demonized, especially those who have been hurt. If you put any effort into this movement, you will be a part of the change in human awareness that is creating the mental toughness, physical flexibility, and spiritual strength for this spiritual conflict we are currently facing.

In this week's episode of Enlightened by Dogs, Kathy Kawalec debunks three common myths around dog obedience training and old thinking that keeps us and our dogs stuck in old unwanted behaviors. As a dog mom, you may have fallen for one, two, or even all three of these myths that have been holding you back from creating a brilliant life with your dog. Kathy shares her experiences from 20+ years of coaching, mentoring, and instructing other dog moms, helping them achieve a level of success with their dogs they never thought was possible. She believes that focusing on transactions and training behaviors is not the most effective way to live successfully with dogs. Instead, she suggests going right to the root cause of behaviors and meeting both your needs and your dog's needs as social mammals. Once you start focusing on understanding your dog and meeting their needs, you'll see real progress towards creating a fulfilling partnership with them. If you're ready to change the way you approach dog behavior and create a brilliant partnership with your dog, tune in to this week's episode of Enlightened by Dogs. Key takeaways: Waiting for everything to be perfect is not an option, and the longer you wait, the less likely you'll ever be to start. Partnership is the number one thing that can catapult you to a level of success with your dog. Focusing on transactions and training behaviors is not the most effective way to live successfully with dogs. Understanding and meeting both our needs as social mammals is the key to creating a life of brilliant partnership with our dogs. Letting go of limiting beliefs around dog obedience training culture and facing our fears around making changes are essential to living cooperatively with dogs. Quotes: “Most of us dog moms don't want to learn how to become an expert dog trainer. What we really want is to live effectively, cooperatively, peacefully, and enjoyably with the dogs that we love.” LOVE TO LEARN MORE?

"Focusing on transactions and training behaviors is not the most effective way to live successfully with dogs, and doing that often leads to getting stuck in a difficult, reactive spiral of stress"

If you are transparent with your numbers, you will create trust.Know the top ten numbers you should be sharing with your team.Determine whether you're sharing too much or not sharing enough.Quotes:“Most of the time, the question stems around either, ‘Have I shared too much?' or, ‘Am I not sharing enough?' And the why behind it is really simple. It's really three things. You want to create accountability. The numbers and sharing the numbers helps with commitment with your team. It also helps to build trust, to help you guys move forward. So, it's really accountability, commitment, and trust. There's a whole lot more, but it really sums it up into those three reasons why sharing the numbers can be helpful.” (2:53—3:24)“Accountable people appreciate numbers. I've always been someone who's a very accountable team member. Nothing brought me more joy than knowing, where did you need me to go? Where's the goal? What's the target? How can I get there? It's the people who want to be held accountable, who want to grow within your practice, they're all-in, they love having numbers to help drive them there. It also holds the team accountable to applying countermeasures when needed.” (4:27—4:51)“[A countermeasure is], what is something we need to do — start, stop, or pause? What is something we're doing well that we need to keep doing? What is something that is obviously not working that's resulting in this data point or this number that we need to stop doing, and maybe we need to think about starting...
This episode features an interview with Mayank Goel, VP of Financial Crimes Compliance, Data Management and Governance at MUFG. MUFG is one of the world's leading financial groups, with over 360 years of history and a global network.As a data governance risk manager, Mayank works in a second line of defense to mitigate risks and solve data problems. With over 13 years in the industry, he can make data tell a story that helps clients make decisions. In this episode, Mayank describes the three-line defense model for bank risk. He also emphasizes the importance of trusting data, defining policies and procedures, and knowing your business objectives.Quotes“Most banks operate under the three line of defense model. The first line is, generally, what people know as the business or the revenue producing side. The people who make sales and services and interact with our customers on a day-to-day basis. They produce the data the rest of the bank generally uses for their work. The second line is the independent risk management function, consists of various risk disciplines, such as credit risk, market risk, financial crime risk, and so on. Both first and second line generally roll up to the chief executive. The second line provides the policies and procedures framework under which the business is expected to operate under. The third line, which is internal audit, is independent. It provides independent oversight to the first and second line, and generally reports directly to the board. As you can imagine, it's a human and regulated industry. All this is a very formally documented and understood governance structure with each line playing their own role and having their own set of responsibilities."“Trusting data is probably the most important thing that we have worked towards. If you don't trust the data that you are using, you're not gonna be able to trust the analysis, defend our decisions, and satisfy our mandates that we have. Trust in data is, in fact, the most important.”“I'd say in my experience, essential components would be having documented and agreed upon policies and procedures. That includes frameworks for establishing accountability, consequence management, pros and responsibilities, having ways to escalate matters as needed. Second would be well-defined business objectives, with the right messaging from the key stakeholders as to why they need governance or why they feel governance is important. The third would be having ways and means to measure and monitor your data quality, and then putting the right set of controls, then going back to the previous question around establishing that trust in data and then making it fit for purpose. And last, I'd say is the change management aspect. How you keep up with the changes in your infrastructure, in your piping of the data and then making sure it's always trustworthy. I'd say those could be the four most important things.”“One way to think about the BCBS framework of aggregation and reporting in banking is: you have a data production layer, right? People who originate a loan for a customer. Then you have your aggregation systems such as your warehouses, or maybe a data lake, where you bring everything together. Then you pick what you need and transform it in various ways. Then you make it relevant for any sort of reporting and consumption based decision that happened in that consumption layer. So, in a risk-based approach, each of these layers has controls that they're responsible for implementing and that are relevant for them.”“The subjective measure of success, in my opinion, is things such as, ‘Were you able to improve your data culture? How successful were you in bringing along the key stakeholders? To close off the project or to get a win.'”“Who do I need to bring along for this journey and how do I bring them along? Knowing who you need, and then secondly, knowing what they need. Knowing their problems and then tying them to your objectives.”“Overcommunicate. Don't make assumptions of what you said, and what the other side understood. Be very transparent and open. Just lots of deep breathing when things are going wrong. And then try to keep yourself calm and if you do yoga, maybe do that, or whatever keeps you calm… You try and control what you can control.”“In my early career, I was quite hesitant to learn about the audit world. I fought a lot to not be part of the world. But everything I do today has some foundations in what I learned in my early career. And I think it's made me quite successful because of that. So don't be afraid of doing something that you have very little idea of.”Time Stamps[01:17] Mayank's start in data[03:06] Mayank's role at MUFG[03:33] The three line defense model[05:01] Breaking down financial crimes[06:03] The importance of trusting data[06:31] Essential components of governance[08:10] Where self-service is heading[09:31] What is the BCBS framework?[11:45] Obstacles to becoming more data-driven[14:08] How to prioritize data projects[15:12] How Mayank measures success[19:26] Handling pressure when stakes are high[21:22] Mayank's career advice[23:12] Staying on top of your gameLinksConnect with Mayank on LinkedInCheck out MUFGConnect with Faisal on LinkedInThanks to our friendsTruth Be Known is brought to you by Talend, a leader in data integration and data integrity, enabling every company to find clarity amidst the chaos.

“I want to spend my time solving problems,” says Iggy Bassi, founder and CEO of Cervest, a platform that uses climate data, science expertise and data modeling to help companies predict their climate risk. It measures the potential damage a company's assets, like buildings, factories and property, could suffer from their surrounding weather conditions, and the potential resulting financial loss. With this data, it helps companies not mitigate risk, but adapt assets over time. Though it's not just real estate firms or manufacturers that have to worry about extreme incidents like flooding or storms. As Iggy points out, all businesses across all industries are at risk from the everyday effects of climate change. Iggy considers this his driving mission—to democratize this data and get it into the hands of decision makers in order to serve the greater good. He talks about the process and necessity of marrying the mission to the method, that to achieve its noble ends, a company must still follow a capitalistic business model and make itself competitive in the market. Both are equally necessary and as Brendan points out, making money and doing good works are not mutually exclusive. It's a matter of deciding what you want to invest your time in. It also means choosing the right people to be part of your mission. Iggy emphasizes the amount of time he spent and continues to spend considering his investors and encourages listeners to do the same. Quotes: “Most of our losses actually came because of these extreme events, we just couldn't predict them. We couldn't control them. So I think in 2014 I sort of picked up a climate model. It helps to think about climate modeling. I said, `I want to know what's going to happen to my facility, for my $6 million factory and tell me what's going to happen to this.” (8:14-8:38 | Iggy) “I think there's a more fundamental question about, ‘Where do you want to spend your energy as well. I want to spend, personally, my energy on solving problems. So that's what really drives me is ‘Can we make an impact because we're all going to work hard, whether you're in for profit, or social sector, what is the purpose to the work?” (12:10-12:31 | Iggy) “We are a B Corp that allows us to marry the mission with raising capital, creating a certain type of culture, which was all driven by a central mission. Can we take the power of plant intelligence into the hands of decision makers? Can we democratize this complex data? So people like me are not stuck on the farms going forward? People can get answers when they need them, how do I protect my assets? How do I adapt my assets? So we want this intelligence to be democratized as fast as possible at the lowest possible price point, potentially, with a freemium model as well, so that people can get a certain level of climate intelligence on their most critical assets for free. And then the larger banks, insurance companies and governments will actually pay for this.” (12:51-13:31 | Iggy) “Even at the height of COVID, most global surveys, when they asked citizens the number one concern, it wasn't COVID, it was still climate. And climate is a number one concern across the world, when you ask the citizens, particularly the younger generations.” (25:21-25:37 | Iggy) “I'm always always careful about who my capital partners are. I spent a long time focusing on choosing the right investment partners, because if you don't have that alignment, it can be catastrophic later on.” (33:53-34:05 | Iggy) “I think there is a combination of mission driven people who are technically good, and people who've got method. So you have to marry mission with method. Because at the end of the day, it is a competitive business, it's a competitive market, you have to be able to sell this stuff into the marketplace, build a brilliant product. And you have to be a commercially orientated organization over time. So mission is great, method is also great. But you need a combination of the two, particularly if you're solving this type of problems.”(36:40-37:10 | Iggy) Connect with Brendan Dell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendandell/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BrendanDell Instagram: @thebrendandellTikTok: @brendandell39 Buy a copy of Brendan's Book, The 12 Immutable Laws of High-Impact Messaging: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780578210926 Connect with Iggy Bassi:Twitter:@IggyBassihttps://cervest.earth/Check out Iggy's recommended books: Hothouse Earth: An Inhabitant's Guide by Bill McGuire https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781785789205 Nutmeg's Curse by Amitabh Ghosh and Sam Dastor https://www.indiebound.org/book/9798212010450 Origins: How Earth's History Shaped Human History by Lewis Dartnell https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781541617902 Please don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe to Billion Dollar Tech on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

Unprecedented times are inevitable in business. However, the difference between a business that continues to thrive and make money and one that ultimately fails depends upon certain critical business habits. Every entrepreneur should know that, although they are one of the key factors for success, sales alone will not make a business successful. There are other critical factors that must come into play if a business is to succeed. One of the most critical factors is an effective marketing strategy. As a business owner, you must position your marketing strategies so that they are constantly feeding your business sales. In the digital era, online marketing is cheaper and makes it easier to reach more prospects. What you can achieve with twenty dollars in traditional marketing will potentially be ten times more effective with internet marketing.

(7:37) A blueprint for the type of exercises perimenopausal women should participate in. (9:22) What you will gain from doing a total-body workout twice a week.

And women in mid-life are much more easily storing fat.” “We get eight times the metabolism boost from doing a total body workout as we do if we say I'm only going to work my chest and my arms today.” “The point of exercise is to get better at life. We're supposed to feel good having done it. We're supposed to have more energy having done it. We're not supposed to be exhausted and sore and tired.” “We need to increase our lean muscle tissue by reaching muscular fatigue, and we need to get breathless.” “We need pulling exercises much more than we need pushing.” “Often, women are hearing “go walk, you need weight-bearing exercise”. But actually, you need weight-resistance exercise.” “We need to be putting the breaks on the losses and/or trying to rebuild bone density.” Links and resources: Debra's website Get Debra's gift of a Five Day Flip Affiliate link: https://gt281.isrefer.com/go/stronger/sgray/ Debra Atkinson on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram Follow Your Longevity Blueprint on Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray on Facebook | Instagram | Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

Gary was born in Santa Clara, California and he grew up all over California. He played sports, ran track, played football, and was an editor of a literary magazine. He started a tax firm from the ground up centered all around the California enterprise program until 7 years later when the program was shut down. His business partner wanted to convert the tax firm into a traditional accounting firm which Gary was not interested in so he decided to be bought out by his partner. He then moved to Seattle, took a retail job, and was later contacted by NTT Communications for an inside sales rep job. Gary worked his way up to a global account manager until when he was recruited by Xfernet as a global sales manager and worked his way up to his current position. Gary and I will dive into his interesting sales career and how he went from being a tax firm owner to a sales leader. He will share his wisdom with us around why salespeople should focus more on gaining the trust of their potential customers instead of just talking about their product or service, how to build a fulfilling sales career, and his top strategies for being an effective sales leader. Stay tuned for that and more!
