Angry much? We all experience anger, and some of it is even what the Bible would call righteous anger. Mostly, our anger should be controlled and not controlling us.

In this episode, Bucky and Mary dive into the high calling of the Christian life. The Bible sets a standard for believers that matches the life Jesus lived—and that can feel intimidating. So how do we pursue a higher standard in our everyday lives without being overwhelmed? What role does our identity play in that pursuit? And if we find ourselves lacking the desire to live differently, what should we do? Join the conversation as we explore what it means to raise the bar as followers of Jesus.

“Raising the Bar: How to Set and Keep Your Standards High”In this episode, we dive into why setting standards is a self-love strategy, not an act of arrogance. Learn how high-achieving women preserve their peace, elevate their environments, and maintain relationships that honor their value. You'll leave with clarity, courage, and practical tools to set boundaries that align with your highest self.Share, like, and follow this Vivalife SPF ME podcast on Spotify/amazon/google platformsVivaLife SPF ME • A podcast on Spotify for PodcastersSubscribe to our YouTube: https://youtube.com/@vivalifehealthhub8261?si=zLFMLAZ126ss6qyOClick the link below to join our mailing list, events, and experienceshttps://vivalifespfme.com/dr-kelly-o-md-linktreeBook Dr. Kelly O.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. In today's episode, host Sara Payne sits down with Mike Cronin, Cofounder and Chief Strategist at Verve, to explore the evolving landscape of creativity in B2B healthcare marketing. Mike, whose impressive résumé includes brand and campaign strategy for UnitedHealth Group, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Optum, and revered consumer brands like Harley-Davidson and Samuel Adams, brings a rare blend of creative vision and strategic rigor to his work. His fundamental belief? That creative work's purpose is to move people, not just fill space. In this conversation, Mike and Sara dive deep into how B2B health brands can move beyond “safe” ideas and unlock emotionally resonant, unforgettable campaigns—even within highly regulated and risk-averse spaces. They discuss why simplicity is a superpower, the importance of strategic “boxes,” and how marketing leaders can create environments where big swings are encouraged, not stifled. Along the way, Mike shares memorable stories from his work (including a campaign that fused Lizzo's “Good as Hell” into healthcare advertising), offers insight into the universal human truths marketers often miss, and outlines what separates teams that produce great creative from those that simply make noise. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of health care depends on it. Key Takeaways: Creativity Thrives Within Constraints: Mike challenges the conventional wisdom of “thinking outside the box.” He argues that true creativity is often unlocked not by limitless freedom, but by well-defined strategic constraints. It's within the confines of a focused brief—what Mike calls “the freedom of a tight brief”—that intelligent, emotionally resonant ideas emerge. Rather than aiming for “crazy” or “flashy,” the best creative is smart, intentional, and purpose-driven. Emotion and Human Truth are Universal, Even in B2B: B2B often gravitates toward rational benefits: cost savings, efficiency, or productivity. But, as Mike notes, even financial administrators and clinicians are humans first—they respond to messages that tap into universal emotions and experiences: hope, fear, dignity, and relief from frustration. Brands that connect on this human level, rather than just touting features and benefits, become memorable and meaningful. Strategic Alignment is the Key to Unlocking Great Creative: Teams that produce truly breakthrough work consistently prioritize strategy. When everyone is aligned on the core insight and brief, creativity can flow freely within those parameters. Conversely, weak or vague direction leads to “safe,” generic campaigns. Mike's experience shows that great creative always starts with a shared, sharp strategic foundation. Boldness is Essential for Breaking Through the Noise: Healthcare, especially B2B, often defaults to playing it safe (“everything's blue”)—but in a crowded marketplace, standing out is non-negotiable. Mike advocates for boldness that is grounded in the brand's truth and strategically anchored. The result: unforgettable, not just noisy, marketing. Leadership's Role: Foster Honesty, Empathy, and Trust: Leadership sets the tone for creativity and trust. Mike urges CMOs and marketing leaders to lead with clarity and honesty—eschewing “BS” and toxic positivity for real, truthful dialogue about challenges and opportunities. Teams (and audiences) respond to authenticity; when leaders call things as they are and create space for truth, better work results.

Hailing from the tiny town of Parowan, UT in the early 1900's, young Alma Richards can't quite figure out what he wants to do with his life.  When he discovers he excels at track and field, especially high jumping thanks to his days growing up on the farm, Richards begins a journey that will take him to Salt Lake City, Chicago and eventually Stockholm, Sweden for the 1912 Olympics.

How much of your potential have you actualized?That's actually a trick question. Because the real question is: Do you even know how much potential you have? You can't measure what you've actualized until you first recognize the vastness of your inner reservoir—your treasure chest of talents, skills, and gifts, both inherent and acquired.This touches on a fundamental truth: each of us is blessed with unique abilities, shaped by both nature and nurture. And deep down, we all seek to actualize that potential—whether in business, creativity, relationships, or personal growth.In fact, success can be defined as the ratio of actualized potential to total potential. If your capacity is 100, have you reached 10%? 20%? More?This awareness impacts every aspect of our lives. Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we embark on this journey together—raising the bar, unlocking our hidden strengths, and fully embracing our divine potential. The more we recognize what lies within us, the more we can illuminate the world around us.

Whilst out and about on my travels, I was introduced to today's guest by previous guest, powerhouse Rachel Thomson (Episode 176).So it was great to sit down with Tim Hobern, the founder of Dovetail Bars, to talk about his wild and unexpected journey from bartender to bar owner to entrepreneur shaping London's cocktail scene. From opening London's smallest bar to launching a Leicester Square hotspot in just 72 sleepless hours, Tim shares the thrills, challenges, and lessons of building a hospitality business in a post-COVID world.Key Takeaways:Entrepreneurial Agility – Tim's journey is a masterclass in spotting opportunities and adapting quickly. (Spoiler: "Pivot" is mentioned... reluctantly.)The Power of Saying Yes – How a residency deal turned into a rapidly growing bar brand.Future-Proofing Your Business – Why Tim doubled down on a second location early on.The Art of Customer Experience – From London's tiniest bar to a casino collaboration, making guests feel at home is everything.Handling Chaos Like a Pro – Lessons from opening a bar in three days, fighting fires (literally), and dealing with late-night Camden crowds.Fun Moments:The creative way Tim once "gently" persuaded a rowdy crowd to leave his venue. (Hint: Music choices matter!)The time a neighbouring building caught fire, and Tim had to empty the bar's safe and grab some beers… just in case.How opening a bar inside a casino required a surprising amount of explanation to customers.Memorable Quotes from the episode:“No one has ever had a fight with Britney Spears playing in the background.”“Everything only ever makes sense in retrospect.”“I called in every possible favour… and then we had a three-day turnaround to open a bar.”“If you tell yourself this is going to be a chapter in the autobiography, you can push through the pain.”“I've developed an almost religious relationship with coffee.”“Most things are set up to be manageable—otherwise, businesses wouldn't survive.”“The best problem-solvers have just a tinge of arrogance—the refusal to accept there's something they can't do.”“You can find ways to make people feel unwelcome without being unwelcoming.”This chat is totally brimmed with lessons and stories and I hope you enjoy!The GuestTim is a British/Australian Bar manager who's been working across London venues for the past 9 years.

Like the effervescent bubbles in her sparkling wine, Emily Heintz believes that true quality always rises to the top. Emily is the visionary behind Sèchey, a dynamic platform that includes a luxury dealcoholized wine brand, a dry bottle shop in South Carolina, and a thriving DTC business offering a wide range of alcohol analogs. Sèchey also curated Target's non-alcoholic adult beverage set, bringing elevated options to the mass retailer's shelves. Sèchey's strategic direction and impressive momentum caught the attention of InvestBev, a private equity firm specializing in adult beverages. In August, InvestBev made an undisclosed investment in the company, with founder Brian Rosen praising Sèchey for having “gotten farther with less than anyone else we've seen.” In this episode, Emily joins us for a dive deep into her vision for Sèchey and the journey of building the brand. Framed around a series of true or false questions, Emily discusses the key factors driving the growth of the non-alcoholic beverage category, how Gen Z and Millennial lifestyles are shaping awareness and trial, and why she believes the founder's voice is the most essential tool in connecting with customers. Show notes: 0:25: Emily Heintz, Founder & CEO, Sèchey – Emily and Ray sample some of Sèchey's sparkling wine, before she discusses her inspiration to start the company, whether her lack of experience in beverages impacted the company early on and why NA wine has the biggest upside among alcohol analogs. She also talks about what's driving traffic in Sèchey's retail store, whether category growth is directly tied to negative health effects of alcohol, and the gap between millennials and Gen Z consumers' perception of wine. Emily also highlights Sèchey's partnership with Target, her perspective that the future of NA beverages isn't in liquor stores, why she's only somewhat concerned about lower quality options in the space, and why she believes that the first adult beverage for younger generations should be a non-alcoholic one.

Did you know that beer, wine, and spirits can contain allergens like wheat, nuts, or even milk—and that most bottles don't disclose this information? Consumers are often left guessing with no mandatory labeling for allergens or ingredients, putting health and safety at risk.    This week, I'm discussing transparency in alcohol labeling with Eva Greenthal, Senior Policy Scientist at the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI). Eva has been leading the charge to ensure that what's in your glass is as clear as what's on your plate.    Eva will explain why mandatory allergen and ingredient labels on alcoholic beverages are long overdue. We'll also examine how the lack of transparency impacts food-allergic individuals, unpack the proposed regulations from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), and explore how these changes could reshape how we drink and shop for alcohol.    If you've ever questioned what's really in your glass—or how we can create safer and more inclusive dining experiences—this is an episode you won't want to miss. Together, let's raise awareness and raise the bar for transparency!

When it comes to church leadership, God doesn't settle for mediocrity. In his letter to Titus, the Apostle Paul outlines clear, high standards for anyone who would shepherd God's people. These are not just qualifications for those in positions of authority; they serve as examples for every believer on how to live a life that is above reproach. In today's episode, Stephen Davey explores what it means to "raise the bar" in the character of church leadership—what God looks for in those who will care for His children. We'll see that these standards encompass not only actions but motivations, integrity, and how leaders conduct themselves at home, in church, and in public. Whether you're called to lead or to follow, these standards challenge all of us to pursue a life that reflects Christ. This message calls for a renewed commitment to character in a world where leadership is often reduced to charisma and success. Tune in and be encouraged to raise the bar in your own spiritual walk and support leaders who live out God's vision for the church.
