What separates the jewellers who keep progressing from those who feel stuck? It isn't talent. In this episode, Jessica Rose is joined by Anna Campbell to explore the real reasons many jewellery makers struggle to move forward and the practical steps that can help you build momentum, confidence and skills. Together they discuss the challenges that can slow your progress, including lack of momentum, staying within your comfort zone, learning through trial and error without support, fear of wasting materials, comparison, self-doubt and waiting until you feel confident before taking action. They also explore why structured learning, community, accountability and expert guidance can dramatically accelerate your growth as a jeweller. Whether you're making jewellery as a creative hobby, developing professional skills or working towards building a jewellery business, this conversation is packed with encouragement and practical insights to help you keep moving forwards. In this episode: • Why momentum is often more important than motivation • How comfort zones can limit creative growth • The hidden cost of learning alone • Why progress can feel invisible before breakthroughs happen • The importance of structured jewellery training • Overcoming the fear of wasting precious materials • Building confidence through action • How community and support can transform your journey If you've ever looked at another jeweller and wondered why they seem to be progressing faster than you, this episode is for you. In this episode we talk about the importance of momentum, support, structured learning and community when it comes to progressing as a jeweller. If you're ready to take the next step in your own jewellery journey, enrolment for our online Diploma programmes closes on Friday 12th June 26. We'd love to welcome you and support you in developing your skills, confidence and creativity over the coming year. https://www.jewellersacademy.com/diplomas  

Let's be honest—teachers are absolute pros at showing up for everyone else… but not always for themselves. In this episode of the This Teacher Life podcast, we're breaking down three hilarious but totally real reasons why it's time to take that mental health sick day—without the guilt, the fear, or the “but what about my sub plans?” panic spiral. From the chaos that happens when you try to “power through,” to the magic of doing absolutely nothing for your sanity, this one's a mix of laughs, truth, and much-needed permission to rest. Because sometimes the most productive thing you can do is… call in sick! PS- One of the reasons is adorable, one of the reasons is controversial, and one of the reasons is absolutely embarrassing and ridiculous!

Why do so many people start ADHD medication... and then quietly stop within a year or two?In this Research Recap, Skye and Will unpack a systematic literature review examining why over half of all patients discontinue or significantly reduce ADHD medication within 2 to 3 years of starting.This episode isn't about whether you should take medication.It's about something more practical: what the data actually found about why people stop, where expert assumptions conflict with what patients reported, and how access barriers, drug holidays, and whether someone chose treatment for themselves all appear to shape long-term adherence.If you've ever let a refill lapse and told yourself you'd sort it later, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar.What we cover:Why over half of patients discontinue ADHD medication within 2 to 3 years, and what the data found as the top reasonsThe gap between what experts assumed drove discontinuation and what patients actually reportedHow drug holidays, sometimes recommended by doctors, complicated how researchers tracked real adherenceWhy access barriers like pharmacy friction, moving states, and losing a prescriber show up as a real factorWhat the research suggests about people who sought treatment themselves versus those pushed into itWant more of Will's work?

This week I'm joined by my co-founder of Beeya Wellness, Kaya Purohit, and together we're sitting down with Dr. Tanda Cook and Dr. Katie Collier. If you've been around the show, you already know them. This is their fourth time on the podcast, and there's a reason we keep bringing them back. They're naturopathic doctors who work with women every single day on the stuff most doctors miss. The fatigue that won't quit. The brain fog. The weird rashes. The gut that's been off for years. And the lab work that keeps coming back "normal" while you feel anything but. They have this gift for taking what feels confusing in your body and making it actually make sense.In this episode, we're talking about autoimmune. Because 80% of autoimmune cases belong to women, and what Tanda and Katie share is genuinely hopeful. They break down what's really happening when your body feels off, the early signals that are easy to miss, why so many women spend years bouncing between doctors before anyone connects the dots, and the simple, doable things that actually move the needle. So if you've ever felt like something is off and you just want someone to explain it in a way that feels human, this conversation is for you.

The Founderz Lounge Episode #86 with Don Varady and Steve Bon.Why do franchisees and business owners fail even when they have access to better tools, stronger systems, and more information than ever before?In this episode of Business & Bullsh*t, Don and Steve break down the real reasons franchisees and business owners fail in 2026. What starts with travel pet peeves, streaming frustration, and AI ordering quickly turns into a bigger conversation about execution, accountability, adapting to change, and why so many operators blame the brand, the model, or the market instead of looking at their own decisions. They dig into what happens when owners stop following the system, assume they know better than the playbook they bought into, or fail to adjust as technology and customer behavior keep shifting.They also get into ChatGPT advertising, AI-driven ordering, why convenience keeps changing the game, and how fast business owners can fall behind when they ignore what is happening around them. Along the way, they mix in the usual Business & Bullsh*t chaos with strong opinions, side tangents, and a few reminders that common sense still matters.If you are tired of excuses, business blind spots, and watching people fail for reasons that were completely avoidable, this episode is for you.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer and Intro[01:25] Founderz Roundup[02:22] AI ordering in ecom[02:59] ChatGPT ads are coming[03:56] Economic census frustration[06:37] California's new franchise bill[09:45] Random Bullsh*t[10:06] Streaming is becoming cable again[13:07] AI haircut clippers[16:02] Founderz Hot Take[16:03] Why franchisees really fail[18:42] Why experts blame franchisors[21:30] Franchisor feedback and advisory councils[23:17] Deviation kills franchisees[23:55] Founderz Fast Five[24:25] Travel pet peeves[26:07] Dumb but cool products[28:49] Business tools that feel outdated[31:08] Snacks from the 80s and 90s[32:39] Funniest thing seen latelyKey Takeaways:  • AI-driven ordering is going to become much more common in e-commerce, restaurants, supplements, and other buying experiences. ~Don Varady• “It's only a matter of time before you can get bumped to the top of what it's putting out there.” ~Steve Bon• Government red tape keeps making it harder for business owners to operate, even when they are just trying to build and grow. ~Steve Bon• “Ads keep creeping back at like an alarming rate unless you pay them more to go adless.” ~Don Varady• “Franchisees don't fail because of a bad model… they fail because they think they're smarter than the brand that they bought into.” ~Don Varady• Service providers often target franchisors instead of franchisees because there is more money in selling to the whole system than to one location at a time. ~Steve Bon• Strong franchise systems need feedback loops, but franchisees still fail when they stop following the system they bought into. ~Don Varady•  Deviation is the number one killer for a franchisee. ~Don VaradyConnect with Don and Steve…Don Varady:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/don.varady/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donvarady/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-varady-450896145 Steve Bon:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenbon Instagram: https://instagram.com/stevebon8 Tune in to every episode on your favorite platform: Website: https://www.thefounderzlounge.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFounderzLounge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Nurr4XjBE747qJ9Zjth0G Apple Music: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-founderz-lounge/id1461825349 

Infidelity doesn't happen in a vacuum. And healing after betrayal isn't just about “getting over it” or learning to trust again. In this deeply compassionate and eye-opening conversation, Lora sits down with marriage and sex therapist Todd Creager to explore the real roots of infidelity, betrayal trauma, emotional safety, and lasting healing. Together, they unpack how childhood wounds, attachment injuries, shame, hypervigilance, and nervous system survival patterns shape both betrayal and recovery. You'll also learn how EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both betrayed partners and betrayers process trauma safely, understand their protective patterns, and move toward genuine healing and connection. This episode is not about excusing betrayal. It's about understanding it deeply enough to heal. Whether you stay or leave, this conversation will help you stop personalizing the betrayal, understand your own patterns more compassionately, and move toward clarity, safety, and self-trust. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, and protective survival patterns that began long before the relationship. EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both partners process betrayal trauma, regulate the nervous system, and heal emotional wounds safely. Healing after infidelity isn't about rushing back into trust — it's about rebuilding emotional safety, understanding protective patterns, and creating real change over time. Favorite Quotes “You don't just cheat. It doesn't happen in a vacuum.” “Life is generous. It helps us wake up to the parts of ourselves we didn't know how to love before.” “Healing is not about forcing trust. It's about becoming safe again.”   What You'll Learn: Why people cheat • Betrayal trauma and nervous system healing • How EMDR works after infidelity • What Internal Family Systems (IFS) actually means • Why hypervigilance after betrayal is normal • Childhood trauma and adult relationships • Why betrayed partners stay • Rebuilding trust safely • Emotional safety after infidelity • Processing trauma without retraumatizing yourself • The difference between understanding behavior and excusing it • Why healing takes time — even in healthy reconciliation   About Todd Todd Creager is an experienced relationship therapist and sex expert specializing in couples counseling, marriage and intimacy.  From healing from trauma through EMDR therapy, to overcoming infidelity Todd has helped countless couples overcome the issues that they face – increasing their connection and communication.  Todd provides a variety of services and methods – from routine relationship therapy sessions to couples retreats and counseling relating to sex addiction and toxic relationships.  It's important to find working solutions for each individual couple.

The real reasons top performers quit, and what managers can do about itYou hired the best people on your team. They deliver results, take initiative, and raise the bar for everyone around them. And then, one day, they hand in their resignation.You run through the usual explanations — better pay, a bigger title, a competitor's offer. But if you look more carefully, the answer is often closer to home.Most top performers don't leave their jobs. They leave their managers.It's hard to hear, but it's the most important insight you can get. Because once you understand why your best people leave, you can fix what's pushing them away and create a workplace they genuinely want to stay in.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] ⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠- [instagram] ⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠- [facebook] ⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

If you've ever thought, “Maybe I just need more experience… more projects… a better portfolio…”, I want you to pause right there. Because the truth is, most interior designers don't struggle with client acquisition because they lack talent. They struggle because they lack structure, clarity, and confidence in how they present their value.I've seen incredibly talented designers sit on the sidelines, waiting for clients to come. At the same time, I've watched designers with less experience stay fully booked. That gap? It's not about design ability. It's about mindset, communication, and how you position yourself in the industry.In this episode, I'm walking you through the real reasons interior designers struggle to get clients—and more importantly, what to do instead. Because once you understand how to shift your thinking, refine your messaging, and step into your role as an expert, everything changes. Your confidence increases, your pricing aligns, and your ideal clients start to see your true value.What You'll Learn in This Episode✔️ Why talent alone doesn't attract design clients✔️ How imposter syndrome impacts pricing and confidence✔️ What clients actually value beyond beautiful spaces✔️ How to communicate design value effectively✔️ Why mindset shifts improve client perceptionRead the Blog >>> 7 Reasons Interior Designers Struggle to Get Clients (And What to Do Instead)NEXT STEPS:

There is a rot in our national security agencies. The Department of Defense, Intelligence, State Department, DHS, and DoJ have been either hollowed out or weaponized to serve the interests of this fanatical administration.

This week on That Tech Pod, healthcare cybersecurity gets a reality check.  Ed Gaudet, Founder and CEO of Censinet, joins the show to unpack how he found his way into healthcare security and why it became the problem he chose to focus on long term. From there, the conversation moves quickly past surface-level explanations and into where things actually break inside health systems.It's not a lack of tools. It's not a lack of awareness. Ed lays out how leadership gaps, misaligned incentives, and day-to-day operational pressures create the conditions for breaches, even in organizations that believe they're in good shape. He also shares how he would test that assumption and what signals tell you whether a system is truly secure or just hoping it is. The episode digs into the tension between patient care and security, questioning whether it's a real constraint or sometimes a convenient reason to avoid harder decisions. On the AI front, Ed separates what's actually working from what's getting too much credit, and highlights the parts of a breach that technology alone won't fix. It wraps with a candid look at the hard truths the industry tends to avoid and what real accountability would look like if organizations took cybersecurity seriously.Then stick around to the very end for a bonus poem that adds an unexpected close to the conversation.Ed Gaudet is the Founder and CEO of Censinet, a company focused on healthcare cybersecurity and third-party risk management. With more than 25 years of software and technology leadership experience, Ed has held executive roles spanning product, marketing, and sales at companies including Imprivata, Liquid Machines, IONA Technologies, Rational Software, and SQA, Inc. At Imprivata, he served as CMO and later business unit GM, leading the creation of Imprivata Cortext, a cloud-based clinical communications platform recognized as best-in-KLAS. Ed holds multiple patents in mobile authentication, secure content sharing, and distributed data management, and he is a recognized speaker on leadership, healthcare, and regulatory compliance.

If you're eating clean, clocking your daily steps, tracking your protein, and doing "all the right things", yet your body seems more resistant to change with every passing year, you're not alone. For so many women in midlife, the scale simply won't budge, and it's easy to blame yourself or feel defeated. But what if the missing piece isn't more discipline, but understanding how stress, shifting hormones, and chronic exhaustion reshape your metabolism and your path to health? Award-winning journalist and trusted guide for women 40+, Natalie Tysdal, combines nearly three decades of health reporting with real-life insight to unpack why weight loss in midlife often has less to do with willpower and more to do with creating a sense of safety in your body. Today, Natalie explores why classic approaches like restricting calories or ramping up workouts can backfire and how exhaustion, ongoing stress, hormone fluctuations, and disrupted sleep can silently change everything from blood sugar stability to gut health, from cravings to mood. With warmth and steady authority, Natalie provides context and clarity—not hype—about what really moves the needle for women navigating this unique life stage. What you'll learn: How chronic stress and elevated cortisol impact your metabolism, appetite, and stubborn weight gain after 40 Why gut health and the gut-brain connection are crucial for hormonal balance, digestion, and your body's response to stress Which habits may unknowingly send your body further into "survival mode"—and simple shifts that signal safety instead The role of sleep, protein, weight training, and reducing daily decision fatigue in supporting a healthier midlife body Why relentless self-criticism and urgency around weight loss often make things harder, not better   Midlife isn't about trying harder—it's about letting go of perfection, learning how your body truly works, and building steady habits that honor the complexity of this chapter. This episode is for women who are ready for real answers, gentle validation, and an achievable path that prioritizes well-being over relentless striving.

When parents hear the word NICU, it can feel frightening. But the reality is that many babies who spend time there are simply adjusting to life outside the womb. In this episode, Afif and Anne break down the most common reasons newborns are admitted to the neonatal unit, including breathing difficulties, low blood sugar, infection checks, temperature regulation, and feeding challenges. Afif explains the physiology behind these issues and why most NICU stays are short and part of a baby's normal transition after birth. If you're expecting a baby or have ever wondered what really happens in NICU, this episode offers clarity and reassurance. Proudly sponsored by www.happytummy.ie Learn more about your ad choices.

You can have a growing podcast, consistent downloads, and listeners who genuinely enjoy your episodes — and still feel frustrated that none of it is turning into clients. If you've ever wondered why people listen faithfully but never buy, this episode will make things click.In today's conversation, I'm unpacking the real reason podcast listeners don't become clients — and it's probably not what you think. Most people assume the issue is content quality, confidence, or not “selling hard enough.” In reality, the problem usually lives much deeper in how the podcast is positioned inside the business.A profitable podcast isn't built by accident. Online visibility alone doesn't create revenue, and growing a loyal audience doesn't automatically lead to sales. If your podcast exists as content instead of a strategic business asset, it can build trust without ever creating momentum. That's where so many small business owners get stuck.This episode explores the hidden gap between having listeners and converting them into clients — and why traditional podcast marketing advice often misses the mark. We talk about why focusing only on downloads can quietly stall your growth, and how monetizing a podcast requires a very different way of thinking about your show from the beginning.If you've ever felt confused about how podcast monetization actually works — beyond ads or sponsorships — this conversation will challenge a few assumptions. We'll also touch on how podcasts can support passive income and client growth when they're connected to a clear business strategy, not just great conversations.If you're trying to market online, attract more clients, and turn your podcast into something that actually supports your business instead of draining your energy, this episode is for you.Hit play and let's talk about what's really keeping your podcast listeners from becoming clients — and what changes when you fix it.Ready to turn your podcast into a real business asset? If you already have a podcast that isn't making money — or you're thinking about starting one and want to do it right from day one — I'm hosting a FREE, live training that will show you exactly how to build a podcast that actually supports your revenue. Inside the Profitable Podcast Kickstarter, I'll walk you through how to: • connect your podcast to a real offer • stop creating content that goes nowhere • turn listeners into clients — without living on social media

This milestone Episode 150 is a powerful solo conversation with Debi Robinson that reframes how we think about osteoporosis and bone loss.Debi shares a perspective that changed her own work profoundly: there are over 150 documented causes of bone loss. When bone loss is viewed through this lens, osteoporosis is no longer a mystery, a personal failure, or an inevitable result of aging — it becomes a multi-system condition with many opportunities for intervention.In this episode, Debi explains why bone loss doesn't start in the bones, how layered stressors accumulate over time, and why addressing only one factor (like calcium, medication, or exercise alone) is rarely enough. This is an empowering, educational episode designed to replace fear with clarity and choice.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy osteoporosis is not a single-condition diseaseHow digestion and absorption affect bone densityThe role hormones play beyond menopause aloneWhy chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation dissolve boneHow movement can either build or weaken bonesThe impact of nutrition, toxins, and medications on bone healthWhy layered causes require a layered solutionHow understanding root causes restores personal agencyAction Steps You Can Take TodayReframe your diagnosis — bone loss is information, not identity.Support digestion first to improve mineral absorption.Address chronic stress through breath, movement, and rest.Move daily with intention, alignment, and balance.Review medications and exposures that may affect bone health.Focus on consistency, not perfection, across lifestyle habits.Educate yourself so fear no longer drives decisions.Resources & LinksStronger Bones Lifestyle resources: https://debirobinson.comHealthy Gut, Healthy Bones Program:https://debirobinsonwellness.thrivecart.com/hghb-self-paced-group-program-pp/Debi's TakeawayBone loss doesn't happen overnight — it happens layer by layer. And that means it can be addressed layer by layer, too.When you understand the many factors that influence your bones — digestion, hormones, stress, movement, nutrition, and toxic load — bone health stops being confusing and starts becoming manageable.Your bones are living tissue.They are responding.And they can respond differently.

Andrea reframes the idea of a “broken metabolism” and walks through the deeper drivers that truly influence how the body functions. She shares why metabolism is about far more than calories and workouts, pulling back the curtain on the roles of nutrition, hormones, the nervous system, training, and even breathing and core stability. Andrea also digs in to how stress, underfueling, and overtraining can quietly work against progress, and how a more holistic, supportive approach can help the body become responsive again for the long game.Make Fit Simple is sponsored by Cozy EarthCozyEarth.com/makefitsimple use code SIMPLE40Make Fit Simple Podcast is sponsored by KION.

They emphasize that while physical appearance can be a motivator, it often isn't enough to sustain long-term commitment. Instead, they encourage listeners to explore their true motivations, or 'whys', which can provide the necessary strength to maintain consistency in their fitness journeys. The conversation also touches on the significance of vulnerability and honesty in discovering these deeper motivations, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and sustainable approach to health and fitness.TakeawaysThe importance of having a strong 'why' for fitness.Motivation can fade, but a real reason can sustain commitment.Surface-level reasons for working out often aren't enough.Honesty with oneself is crucial in identifying true motivations.Real reasons for health support long-term consistency.Asking 'Does this support the life I want?' can shift mindset.Vulnerability is necessary for courage in fitness journeys.Goals should be about more than just appearance.The journey of fitness is about personal growth and self-discovery.Writing down your reasons can help clarify your motivations.TitlesFinding Your True Motivation in FitnessThe Power of Your Why in Goal SettingSound bites"Does this support the life I want?""Keep it simple.

This week I spoke to Arctic geopolitics expert Heather A. Conley, before President Trump made a speech at The World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday. Heather spoke to me about a place most of us barely think about—until it becomes the center of a global power struggle. Greenland has gone from frozen afterthought to geopolitical prize, and its story reveals a lot about American expansionism, NATO politics, and the race now unfolding in the Arctic. We trace Greenland's strange political history with Denmark and the U.S., unpack why its location has always mattered militarily, and explore what happens as China and Russia push north. We also confront the uncomfortable truth behind Trump's “buy Greenland” moment—and why the people who actually live there want neither Denmark nor America to own them.

I spent quite a bit of my career as mostly an outdoor writer, before filming hunts and recording podcasts took over. That early role taught me how to use weasel words like a champion. Actually, it was reader responses that taught me to cover my ass with generalizations. What happens when you write hunting articles, even benign hunting articles you assume won't piss people off, is that you end up pissing people off anyway. So, you start to think...
