Podcasts about Rebuilt

What happens when the life you built suddenly unravels? Dan Boettcher had the degrees, the career path, and the promise of a future in diplomacy. On paper, it looked perfect. But inside, he was falling apart – and one surreal moment in an airport lounge sent his world in an entirely different direction. In this conversation, Dan shares what it means to start over when the future you planned is no longer possible. His story is not just about survival but about transformation, and how meaning can show up in unexpected places. How a mental health crisis forced him to step away from the identity he built The moment he found meaning in unexpected grace and healing Why jewelry, storytelling, and transformation became his new way forward This is a conversation about breaking open, rediscovering purpose, and finding beauty in places you never thought to look. Guest Bio Daniel Boettcher is the founder of The Intrepid Wendell and a Graduate Gemologist (GIA) with academic degrees from Yale, Georgetown, and American Universities. He began his career in law while preparing for a future in diplomacy, but a serious mental health crisis ultimately altered that path. Unable to pursue government work due to clearance restrictions, Daniel set out on a journey to rediscover meaning and passion – leading him back to a childhood love of gems and minerals. Today, he travels the globe sourcing rare gemstones and precious metals to craft custom jewelry that reflects the personal stories of his clients. A digital nomad, seasoned world traveler, and polyglot, he has visited over 100 countries and finds inspiration in every culture he encounters. Sure On This Shining Night Sure on this shining night Of star made shadows round, Kindness must watch for me This side the ground. The late year lies down the north. All is healed, all is health. High summer holds the earth. Hearts all whole. Sure on this shining night I weep for wonder wand'ring faralone Of shadows on the stars.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, I'm excited to share Jasmine's story, a former patient whose struggles with PCOS, body image, and burnout may sound all too familiar. Jasmine's experience reflects the pressure many women feel to constantly push harder, dieting, overtraining, and trying to force their bodies into submission, only to feel like they're getting nowhere. If you've ever felt like your efforts weren't enough or your body was working against you, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective and practical encouragement.When Your Body Says "Enough": The Turning PointAt just 26, Jasmine felt completely burned out. Her periods had stopped, her energy was gone, and her hair was thinning. Despite years of eating “good” and intense workouts, her body felt like it was shutting down. Lab results revealed exactly that, low estrogen and progesterone, nutrient deficiencies, and sky-high stress hormones. But instead of labeling her body as broken, Jasmine began to understand that her symptoms were signals. Her body wasn't failing, it was crying out for help. Rebuilding from the Inside Out: Food, Movement, and MindsetIn this episode, you'll discover what Jasmine did differently that finally helped her make lasting progress. How she stopped eliminating things from her diet and began nourishing her body instead. How her exercise routine shifted from punishment to partnership with her body. Along the way, she dismantled the shame and perfectionism that had fueled her yo-yo cycles for years. She didn't do it perfectly, but she kept showing up for herself in a new, more supportive way.The Power of Listening to Your BodyOne of the most inspiring parts of Jasmine's story is how her emotional transformation mirrored her physical healing. As her cycle returned, her energy lifted, and her hair thickened, she also began to feel like herself again—confident, calm, and empowered. She stopped measuring her worth by her weight or workouts and started tuning in to what actually made her feel strong, alive, and aligned with her body. That's the magic of healing from PCOS, not just fixing symptoms, but building a relationship with your body that's rooted in trust and care.If you've been stuck in patterns of restriction, shame, or frustration, this episode is your reminder that you are not broken. You don't need to try harder, instead listen, support, and nourish. Jasmine's story shows what's possible when you stop fighting your body and begin to work with it. Healing may not be fast, but it is possible, and it starts with intention, not perfection. You'll walk away from this episode with a renewed sense of hope and clarity for your own PCOS journey.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-166

What happens when a father-son duo takes on the challenge of revamping a struggling law firm? On today's episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Carl and Brent Doré share their extraordinary journey of transforming the Doré Rothberg Law Firm into a thriving practice, along with the invaluable support of partner Lisa Rothberg, who was instrumental in stabilizing and growing the firm. After a record-breaking year, momentum reversed and the firm hit a breaking point with cash-flow issues and weak processes. Instead of giving in, they embraced a series of bold, strategic changes. Their story is a masterclass in law firm growth strategies. You'll hear how they moved operations to the cloud, revamped their onboarding process, and used a unique financial metric they call “DRL hours” to stabilize the firm's finances. These law firm growth strategies were truly tested when they made the ambitious decision to hire seven new attorneys in just six months. This move, backed by a powerful paralegal team, not only expanded their capacity but also boosted productivity and profitability across the board. Their philosophy is simple: revenue follows capacity. Invest in your people and processes, and the revenue will come. Carl and Brent also share how they navigated the complexities of a family-run business and the challenge of succession planning. Their “shareholder pipeline” strategy creates a clear path for career progression, serving as a powerful tool for hiring and retention. Their journey is a rich tapestry of lessons on firm culture, adaptability, and the power of personal and professional integration. It proves that with the right mindset, you can build a practice and a life you truly love. We are thrilled to have Carl and Brent Doré as Game Changers at this year's Summit! With transparency, humility, and a touch of humor, they'll show how tough conversations, bold hiring decisions, and investing in the right infrastructure and people helped them turn chaos into clarity and scale for the future. In this episode, you will hear: The Doré Rothberg Law Firm's transformation journey focusing on strategic changes for success Innovative strategies for stabilizing cash flow and enhancing team dynamics, including transitioning operations to the cloud Importance of family dynamics and clear communication in succession planning and leadership transition within a family-run business Hiring strategy in 2022, expanding the team with seven new attorneys, and implementing unique compensation models Development of DRL hours as a key performance indicator to balance productivity across hourly, fixed, and contingency pricing models Challenges and successes of building a resilient and client-focused law firm, emphasizing work-life balance and ethical practices Insight into creative problem-solving as a core value and refining client intake processes to better align with long-term strategic goals  Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

What if the key to standing out in a crowded online health and fitness industry isn't some flashy new marketing trick, but a deeper understanding of who you actually help and why they should work with you? Today I'm joined by one of our standout NBA clients, Zach Lewandowski—a personal trainer turned online nutrition coach who helps high-performing professionals lose fat and build sustainable habits. Zach shares his powerful journey of rebuilding after spending $18K on the wrong coach. From broken trust to bold pivots, he opens up about the real lessons, strategies, and mindset shifts that helped him create a profitable business that actually feels good to run. If you've ever been burned by a business coach or felt stuck trying to “do it all” without the ROI you expected, this one's for you. Episode Timeline [2:24] – Zach's journey from 17-year-old personal trainer to online health coach [4:00] – The challenge of standing out in a crowded health & fitness industry [6:42] – Shifting from broad messaging to specific, client-centered language [9:23] – Why Zach stopped chasing “more content” and focused on quality over quantity [13:19] – Spotting red flags in sales conversations and protecting your coaching energy [16:24] – How the sales landscape has shifted since 2020 and what's working now [21:44] – Zach's experiences with shady mentors, lawsuits, and rebuilding trust [35:35] – Why simplifying to one high-ticket offer transformed Zach's business [43:40] – The power of retention and why Zach shifted from 9-week to 6-month programs [47:11] – Final advice for coaches navigating today's tougher online market Top 5 Quotes from This Episode “When you're educated and not chasing gimmicky buzzwords, it's tough to stand out—you have to be crystal clear on who you help and how you help them.” “I stopped trying to push out tons of content. Now I focus on being very specific and detailed, even if I'm only speaking to 100 people.” “If you try to juggle 10 different strategies, you won't be great at any of them. Simplicity always wins.” “Retention is everything. Even if you don't sign new clients for a couple months, recurring revenue keeps your business alive.” “It's going to take much longer than you think, probably double or triple the time. But if you stay consistent, it's worth it.” Links & Resources Connect with Zach on Instagram: @fortifiedstrength Learn more about my program, The Nourished Business Accelerator: DM me NBA on Instagram

What happens when your business turns into a source of panic attacks, overwork, and total burnout? Today I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of how my business completely fell apart during a mental health crisis and how just one year later, I rebuilt it into a business (and life!) that feels joyful, aligned, and sustainable.You'll hear:

What happens when success on paper leaves you feeling completely empty inside? Kevin Palmieri had the dream life. The job. The car. The paycheck. But beneath the highlight reel, he was unraveling. In this conversation, Kevin shares the quiet spiral that nearly ended everything and the honest decision that changed his life for good. What started as a breakdown became a wake-up call. One that led him to become the kind of person he always needed. You’ll hear: Why achieving six figures didn’t bring peace or purpose The moment Kevin realized he couldn’t stay in his job one more day How borrowing belief from someone else helped him build his own Kevin’s story is a powerful reminder that worth is not earned by titles, money, or status. It’s grown through truth, trust, and the small daily steps we take to become who we’re meant to be. Listen wherever you get your podcasts or at www.thelifeshiftpodcast.com Kevin Palmieri is the founder and co-host of the Next Level University podcast. Early in his life, Kevin found “success,” but after a brush with near suicide he realized he wasn’t living a life he truly wanted. He became passionate about self-improvement and made it his purpose to impact as many people as possible by becoming a role model podcaster and speaker. Today, Next Level University is a top 100 podcast with over 2,000 episodes and one million listens across more than 170 countries.

What happens when your newly updated sales funnel “should” be working, the leads are rolling in, and everyone says they're ready… but almost no one buys? How do you handle the biggest sales slump you've had all year? In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I turned the slowest start to a month this year into our highest cash month to date—from $6K in the first 12 days to nearly $60K by the 31st. Spoiler: It didn't happen by chasing trends, burning everything down, or throwing more money at ads. I walk you through the six strategic shifts (plus one bonus move) that created the breakthrough, starting with a personal realignment in my spiritual life and leading into CEO-level decisions that refined my funnel, optimized our follow-up, elevated our offer suite, and re-centered how I show up as a leader.  If you're sick of chasing trends and craving sustainable growth that honors both your mission and your margin, no matter what's happening week to week in your business, this episode is for you. Timeline Highlights [00:00] From 20 qualified leads and 1 sale to a record-breaking $60K month—how I transformed August in 18 days. [02:31] Step 1: Reclaiming my spiritual foundation and how reconnecting with God re-centered my identity and decision-making. [17:23] Step 2: Rebuilt my funnel (again) by ditching “proven” advice and trusting my instinct to speak to real buyers, not browsers. [27:23] Step 3: Slashed ad spend by 50% because scaling a broken funnel doesn't fix anything. [29:40] Step 4: Recommitted to sales calls and showing up for potential clients and leading decisively. [33:13] Step 5: Installed a 7-day deadline with automated follow-up so I'm no longer nurturing indecision. [39:21] Step 6: Created a high-ticket, done-for-you offer for clients who don't want DIY, serving those ready for full-service support. [43:21] Bonus step 7: Made it easier for action-takers to apply quickly, removing friction for my most aligned leads. Top 5 Quotes from This Episode "Your identity should not be in your business, because if it is, it doesn't matter how good your business is, you're always going to be disappointed." "I really had to get my identity back into my relationship with God and not into the sales numbers, the revenue goals, or even the reputation I have online." "Sometimes leadership as a CEO means stepping back into parts of your business you were hoping to get out of because that's what's required to make sales." "It wasn't luck. It wasn't just from manifesting. I had to do a lot of work, and I had to make CEO-level decisions." "Being able to respond, not react, is what allows you to grow month after month, year after year without rebuilding from scratch every 90 days." Closing Remarks I hope this conversation gave you not only tactical insight but a deeper sense of permission to lead from alignment, not urgency.  Remember: Cold streaks don't define you as a CEO. Your ability to recalibrate and lead with discernment does.  If this episode spoke to where you are right now, I'd love for you to share it with a fellow coach or practitioner who's building their online business with the same integrity and vision. And if you haven't yet, take a moment to rate, follow, and review the show—it helps more mission-driven leaders like you find this space.  

Hello and welcome to the final episode of season 18. 18!!!! My guest today is the cook, Thomasina Miers. Despite being taught to cook as a child, Tommi didn't really embrace her love of food until her late 20s when a trip to Mexico inspired a love of Mexican food that was to change her life. In 2005, she became the first person ever to win Masterchef and two years later she co-founded the successful Mexican restaurant chain Wahaca. Tommi has also cheffed in Michelin star kitchens, set up Chefs in Schools and also works with the soil association. She was awarded an OBE in 2019 for her services to the food industry.  She has also written nine cookbooks, the latest of which is Mexican Table which celebrates the flavour, culture and ingredients of the country she loves and has been visiting for over 30 years.  Tommi and I talked feeling a failure in your twenties, being diagnosed with ADHD in your 40s, finding herself through cooking, how she learnt to stop using work to self medicate, recovering from the perimenopause crash, how a midlife family flit to Mexico rebuilt her and why she hopes she'll still be in hot pants at 80.

When Hurricane Katrina made landfall 20 years ago, New Orleans East was especially hard hit. This part of the city is home to a large Vietnamese population, many of whom had experienced fleeing their home in the aftermath of the Fall of Saigon. Yet the Vietnamese community bounced back, in larger numbers, and at a faster rate than many other enclaves. Cyndi Nguyen is a New Orleans East resident and former city council woman who currently serves as the community outreach strategist for New Orleans Regional Transit Authority.  She tells us more about how this community recovered.In the immediate aftermath of Katrina, thousands of displaced people were looking for their missing relatives. Queries popped up on various websites, like Craigslist and Yahoo, but the posts were too scattered to be useful. That's when a group of tech-savvy volunteers came in, led by David Geilhufe. They compiled the information to create one centralized database to find the missing, called PeopleFinder. David joins us from California to discuss PeopleFinder and his work in the aftermath of the storm.Many people displaced from Hurricane Katrina came to Baton Rouge en masse. Faith groups of all kinds took the call to help their needs both spiritually and physically. Report for America corps member Alex Cox spoke with retired interfaith federation executive director Reverend Robin McCullough-Bade about how Katrina weighs on people's spirits to this day. ___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Bob Pavlovich.

As we gear up for our 2025 Masters of Scale Summit, we're revisiting one of the stellar on-stage conversations that happened at the 2024 event. Hear Rocket Companies' Dan Gilbert and Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan reveal how their unique public-private partnerships have transformed the struggling city into a growing hub for everything from tech companies to electric vehicle manufacturing. Note: this conversation was recorded in October of 2024, before Duggan announced he would not seek another term as mayor and is instead running for governor of Michigan as an independent.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever felt like you're silencing the signs of burnout, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I'm joined by Cathryn Howland —a top-performing real estate professional, mom, and former coaching client—who shares her powerful journey from burnout to balance. On the outside, Cathryn was excelling. But behind the scenes, her days felt reactive, chaotic, and draining. Through coaching and intentional change, she made a bold decision: to stop operating on autopilot and start creating a life and business that felt aligned.

After nearly four decades of marriage, Kim and Russ had done the hard work. They had raised five children, invested in professional counseling, read marriage books, and sought spiritual guidance. And still, something was missing. The breakthrough moments they experienced through the years never seemed to last. They still longed for a deeper connection and the kind of love they had always dreamed of. The Pain of “Almost” Fxixing It Kim felt emotionally unsafe for far too long. Arguments were frequent, and intimacy had become something to endure rather than enjoy. She said, “We spent tens of thousands of dollars on counseling… but nothing stuck.” They had learned communication tools, gone on retreats, and practiced new habits—but it felt like patchwork. They both feared they'd never experience the closeness they longed for. What Made This Marriage Transformation Different When a close friend experienced radical transformation in her marriage through our program, Kim and Russ took notice. Russ joined the men's program first—not out of crisis, but out of conviction. He realized he hadn't been loving Kim as Christ loved the church (Ephesians 5), and he wanted to grow. As Russ surrendered his old ways, Kim noticed a clear shift. He was more present, more loving, and no longer reactive. Over time, her heart softened too. Though initially hesitant, Kim eventually joined the women's program, encouraged by the changes she saw and her own desire to grow. "I wanted to catch up," she shared with us. The Breakthrough They Couldn't Find Anywhere Else What set this experience apart wasn't just the information—it was the biblical framework, practical tools, and deep community that made lasting transformation possible. Together, they: Ended their cycle of arguing Rebuilt emotional safety and trust Restored intimacy in every sense—physical, emotional, and spiritual Learned how to love and respect one another as God intended Russ shared with us, "I've been in church all my life, but I never really learned how to live out Scripture in my marriage. This taught me how.” A Marriage They Never Thought Was Possible Today, Kim and Russ say their marriage is “a 9 or 10.” Not because it's perfect—but because they've been changed from the inside out. They speak with laughter and warmth. They tease each other. They still work through conflict—but without yelling, shutdowns, or spirals that last for days or weeks. Now? They hold hands again. They share their hearts freely. They support each other's needs—spiritually, emotionally, physically. Russ opens the car door for Kim every time. And she waits for him to do it. Healing Beyond Just the Two of Them The impact of their transformation has rippled outward—into their relationships with their grown children, with friends, and even in their church. What used to feel tense or guarded has become relaxed. Warm. Full of grace. When asked to describe their marriage today, each responded with one word: 'Delight' (Russ) & 'Thankful' (Kim). That's not where they began. But by God's grace—and a willingness to grow—they now live in daily gratitude. For the peace in their home. For the tenderness in their marriage. And for the God who redeems all things.   Blessings, The Delight Your Marriage Team   PS - Are you were Russ & Kim were before? 35+ years into marriage and feeling defeated and discouraged?
