Podcasts about recalibrating

Wellness entrepreneur and former Mr. America Dr. Chris Zaino joins me to unpack what happens when your body collapses—and how that crisis can become the catalyst for a completely different life.At 23, Chris had just won Mr. America. Magazine covers. A fitness career taking off. His identity was built on physical strength and appearance.Then he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Autoimmune. Incurable. Terminal. Surgery scheduled. Colon removal likely. No guarantee of surviving the procedure. No guarantee of having children.Within months, he lost 60 pounds and hit public rock bottom.This episode does not sanitize that moment.Chris walks through the humiliation, the fear, the failed treatments, and the turning point when someone challenged the belief that he had “tried everything.” That crack in certainty forced him to confront something deeper: responsibility.We explore the difference between symptomatic intervention and root-cause ownership. We talk about inflammation, food sourcing, nervous system regulation, and why most people wait for a health crisis before changing behavior. We also unpack the psychology of momentum — how improvement doesn't start with positivity, but with small evidence that you're moving in the right direction.The conversation expands beyond illness.We discuss autonomy in modern life. Cooking from scratch. Learning mechanical skills. Understanding what your food eats. Recalibrating internal economics. Choosing long-term capacity over convenience.Chris introduces the idea of “survival value” — structuring your days around actions that increase your long-term strength rather than immediate comfort.This is a candid conversation about health, masculinity, identity, discipline, divorce, financial setbacks, and the reality that ownership is rarely convenient.The lesson isn't anti-medicine or motivational hype.It's this: your health is your first business. And without capacity, nothing else scales.TL;DRHealth crises expose identity fragility.Momentum matters more than positivity.Most people change only when pain forces them.You are what your food eats.Autonomy compounds into resilience.Convenience erodes capability.Survival value is a daily filter for better decisions.Memorable Lines“If you had tried everything, you'd have your health.”“I didn't need perfect — I just needed progress.”“You are what your food eats.”“Once you see it, you can't unsee it.”“Health is your greatest asset.”GuestDr. Chris Zaino — Wellness entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of one of the largest holistic health clinics in the world.Former Mr. America turned performance health authority focused on inflammation, corrective care, and personal responsibility.Instagram: @drzainoWhy This MattersExecutives obsess over revenue dashboards while ignoring their own biomarkers.Founders track burn rate but neglect the biological system carrying the company.In volatile environments, the ultimate edge isn't intensity — it's capacity.If your health collapses, so does your optionality.This episode reframes health not as a lifestyle aesthetic, but as strategic infrastructure.Because rebuilding after the hit isn't only financial.It's physiological.

What does “strength” look like when it's not domination… and not self-erasure either? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, we explore the quieter, steadier kind of masculinity that holds power and compassion in the same hands. This conversation is for men who want to feel grounded instead of reactive—and for anyone navigating relationships where trust, safety, and respect matter. Michael Jaquith breaks down why control shows up when inner foundation is missing, and what it means to return to values without shame when you mess up. About the Guest: Michael Jaquith is a former corporate executive turned entrepreneur and life coach who works with men. He also hosts a podcast and has written a Catholic faith-based book focused on masculinity. Episode Chapters: 00:04:56 – Setting the tone: why this topic matters now 00:08:15 – “Healthy masculinity” as a rock: stable, dependable strength 00:09:26 – The biggest misconception: fear and society's mixed messages 00:11:17 – Where distortions start: wounding, roles, and imbalance 00:13:41 – Control vs foundation: how insecurity leaks into relationships 00:17:18 – The validation trap: “If you're not enough without it…” 00:22:21 – Recalibrating without shame: identity vs actions, self-forgiveness Key Takeaways: Build an internal foundation (values, purpose, “something bigger than you”) before trying to lead. Watch for control as a warning sign: it often shows up when self-control feels shaky. Separate who you are from what you did—accountability without self-hate is maturity. Practice “enduring the storm”: stay steady even when emotions rise around you. If you're chasing validation, pause and ask: “What am I trying to prove—and to whom?” How to Connect With the Guest: Website/Podcast: https://catholiclifecoachformen.com/  Book: Available on Amazon (Catholic faith-based; Audible planned but not yet live) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

The episode begins with a reflection on Brazil's 2025 BRICS presidency, which emphasized continuity with the bloc's original reformist agenda—particularly the push for reform of global financial institutions and greater representation for emerging economies. While Brazil focused on trade facilitation, climate finance, and taxation cooperation, progress on deeper monetary coordination and mechanisms such as the Contingent Reserve Arrangement remained limited.  Ana Garcia also notes the gap between expectations and reality within BRICS. Despite its growing geopolitical visibility, the bloc has struggled to develop unified responses to global crises and remains economically imbalanced, with intra-BRICS trade heavily centered on China. The New Development Bank continues to expand its project financing and local currency lending but operates within global financial constraints and plays a more limited role than often perceived. Looking ahead, India's presidency will focus on consolidating the expanded BRICS grouping while cautiously advancing financial cooperation, climate adaptation financing, and South-South collaboration in health. The discussion concludes that India's success will depend on pragmatic institutional progress rather than ambitious rhetoric, as BRICS navigates a complex and polarized global environment.

The unemployment rate says everything is fine. So why does finding a job feel impossible?Canada has added nearly 200,000 jobs and unemployment sits around 6.5%. On paper, that's a “normal” economy. But talk to young workers, or anyone trying to switch jobs, and you'll hear a very different story: hundreds of applications, zero callbacks, and months of silence.In this episode of Classonomics, Sabrina Maddeaux and Mike Moffatt break down the hidden story behind the headlines. They explain why low unemployment can mask a frozen job market — one with fewer layoffs, fewer hires, and far fewer opportunities for people trying to get in.If you're a recent grad, stuck in your career, or wondering why the economy feels worse than the data suggests, this episode is for you.Tell us in the comments: How long has your job search taken?

Your chronic physical pain might be more than a medical diagnosis—it could be your body's only way of screaming for emotional rescue.Author and Shaman, Kerry Blaser Bouzaglo, joins Brigitte Cutshall to share her journey from a traumatic childhood and debilitating back pain to a life of "psychic gifts" and radical health, revealing how women can stop "popping pills" and start listening to the wisdom of their own biology.3 Key Takeaways:(1) The Body as a Mirror: Chronic physical ailments—specifically lower back and "womb" pain—often serve as physical manifestations of repressed emotional trauma, guilt, and shame.(2) The "Hills and Valleys" of Growth: Using a physics-based metaphor, Keri explains that the "valleys" of life provide the momentum and speed necessary to reach higher levels of wisdom; without the lows, we cannot reach the "Everest" of enlightenment.(3) Recalibrating the Nervous System: Healing is the process of shifting the body's resonance from fear-based frequencies to the frequencies of love and compassion (measured at $500text{ Hz}$ and above).Are you ready to stop ignoring what your body is trying to tell you?

Church planting is thriving at the very moment the church faces a crisis of credibility. What if the problem isn't too few churches—but too narrow a vision of what church is for? In this episode with Mark Labberton, Brad Brisco reflects on church planting shaped by Christology before strategy, mission before institution, and incarnation before programs. Together they discuss missionary imagination in the modern West, co-vocational ministry, alternative expressions of church, micro-church networks, church growth assumptions, vocation and work, justice and proximity, and what it means to return—daily—to the ways of Jesus. –––––––––––––––– Episode Highlights "We need to help church planters think less like pastors starting a Sunday service and more like missionaries engaging a unique context." "If by church we mean buildings, then no—we don't need more of those." "Mission isn't really ours. It's about what God's already doing." "We can say we're gospel-centered and still miss the ways of Jesus." "The only way the church gets this far off is by being void of the ways of Jesus." –––––––––––––––– About Brad Brisco Brad Brisco is a missiologist and church planting leader, trainer, and writer who has spent more than twenty-five years coaching and resourcing church planters across North America. After beginning his career in the restaurant industry, Brisco entered ministry through church planting and later joined Send Network, where his work has focused on alternative expressions of church, co-vocational leadership, and missionally engaged discipleship. He also serves on the national leadership team for Forge America Mission Training Network. Brad is the co-author of "Missional Essentials," a 12-week small group study guide, "The Missional Quest: Becoming a Church of the Long Run" and "Next Door As It Is In Heaven." He is widely known for challenging church growth assumptions and for advocating Christ-centered, incarnational approaches that integrate faith, work, and neighborhood life. Brisco remains closely connected to decentralized microchurch networks and innovative models of mission in urban contexts.

Missionary context of the modern West Do we need more churches or more ways of being church? Underserved neighborhoods and unengaged people groups Declining interest in traditional church programs Airplane anecdote exposing attractional church assumptions "You just need a really good sound system and a good speaker." Mission versus Sunday-centric church planting Christology–missiology–ecclesiology framework Jesus shaping mission before shaping church "Most church planters start with ecclesiology rather than the ways of Jesus." Church growth movement assumptions challenged Recapturing the missionary nature of the church Church as sent people, not religious service provider Incarnational presence in neighborhoods and workplaces "Mission isn't something we do over there." Participation in the mission of God "The mission isn't really ours—it's about what God's already doing." Individual salvation versus communal discipleship Robust Christology beyond the cross alone Incarnation, life, resurrection, and kingdom shaping mission Brokenness, proximity, and responsibility for place Mission as communal, not individual activity Bi-vocational and co-vocational ministry distinctions Marketplace calling as missional advantage Sacred–secular divide challenged Time constraints forcing alternative church models Team-based leadership as non-negotiable Theology of work as essential formation Financial freedom reshaping church planting incentives Fully funded models drifting toward attractional pressure Co-vocational longevity and sustainability Microchurch networks and decentralized leadership Tampa Underground as proof of concept Mission-first communities addressing justice and brokenness "Mission is the mother of adaptive ecclesiology." Diverse expressions emerging from contextual mission Established churches learning from church planting frameworks Incremental versus wholesale institutional change Sending churches supporting new expressions Calling the church back to the ways of Jesus "We can be gospel-centered and still miss the ways of Jesus."

In this episode, Mr. Sydney Seiler moderated a discussion with Dr. Chansong Lee and Dr. Bee Yun Jo of the Sejong Institute on the overall outlook of the U.S.–South Korea alliance leading up to 2026, including extended deterrence, the Nuclear Consultative Group, the OPCON transfer, shipbuilding, and other strategic issues.

As we step into the new year and recalibrate after the holiday season (whether it felt restorative or not), this is a good time to make sure we have a solid foundation of health in place.Before we demand of ourselves that we produce/create anything new, it's wise and kind to first ensure that we have the mental, emotional, and physical capacity to do so. Or that we are giving ourselves what we need to fill up and feel healthy and rooted.In this short episode, I share 7 ways I'm taking good care of myself these days. Most of these ideas are basic (we still need to be willing to practice!) but no.7 might be new to you.The Life Visioning Course: https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/life-visioning-course/In this course you will get the tools and support you need to reimagine your life from the inside out — learning to listen inward and build self-trust while creating values-aligned rhythms and practices that support you in feeling safe, at home, and joyful in your body and life.

In this extended studio conversation on Leadership Bites, Guy Bloom sits down with Danny Nelson, MD WINVIC, Industrial & Logistics who has grown with a construction business from its early days into a billion pound organisation. This is not a polished leadership story. It is a real one. Danny talks openly about starting out as an apprentice, learning the craft from tough early experiences, and what changes when you move from being good at the job to being responsible for people, culture and long term performance. Together they explore what trust actually looks like when you stop micromanaging, why accountability is not about blame, and how letting go becomes one of the hardest disciplines of senior leadership. The conversation goes deep into lived culture. Not values on the wall, but how standards are set, how people are treated, how suppliers are paid, and how consistency builds credibility over time. They discuss succession, stepping into ownership, recalibrating peer relationships, and why leadership maturity often comes through discomfort, feedback and reflection rather than confidence or charisma. This episode is for leaders who have grown inside an organisation, who feel the weight of responsibility, and who know that leadership is less about being right and more about learning, trust and sustained behaviour over time.  00:08:56 From apprentice to boardroom learning leadership through craft 00:15:40 Growing inside one organisation what you learn that outsiders do not 00:17:38 Where culture really comes from standards not slogans 00:20:02 Doing it right why credibility is built through behaviour 00:23:56 What culture feels like when it is working 00:26:23 What got you here will not get you there 00:28:50 Leadership maturity learning through reflection 00:30:28 Trust versus control why micromanagement kills leadership 00:32:10 Letting go without letting things fall apart 00:33:37 Accountability without blame owning performance properly 00:35:14 The John Terry effect leadership without needing the spotlight 00:36:53 Succession without ego stepping into ownership 00:39:09 Recalibrating peer relationships at senior level 00:42:05 Getting honest feedback when you are at the top 00:44:21 Why senior leaders hear less truth over time 00:46:03 Trusting each other enough to challenge properly 00:48:11 Why perfection is not the goal in leadership 00:49:21 Advice to younger leaders what really matters 00:51:18 Growth comes from facing into discomfort 00:52:39 Learning from leaders you do not want to become 00:54:10 Leadership is not meant to be easy To find out more about Guy Bloom and his award winning work in Team Coaching, Leadership Development and Executive Coaching click below.The link to everything CLICK HEREUK: 07827 953814Email: guybloom@livingbrave.com Web: www.livingbrave.com

Many Christians want to grow spiritually but feel distracted and unfocused. Drawing from Genesis 1 and other bible passages, Clem explores the causes of spiritual stagnation and reveals the singular purpose for which we were all created.

Have you ever felt like you're ready to move forward, but something invisible keeps holding you back?  In this episode, Nicole speaks directly to that uneasy in-between space so many people experience at the start of a new year. Rather than pushing for momentum too soon, she explores why this pause exists—and how Human Design can help you understand what this moment is really asking of you before things begin to speed up. At the center of the conversation is the G-Center—the energetic home of identity, love, direction, and purpose. Nicole explains how strategy and authority aren't just tools for decision-making, but mechanisms that gradually recalibrate this center so you can be pulled toward the correct path for you. When the G-Center is misaligned, life often feels repetitive and resistant; when it's aligned, clarity and movement begin to happen with far less force. Nicole shed light on why conscious mindset work alone doesn't always create lasting change. She also discusses how deconditioning plays a critical role in shifting identity at a deeper level, and why Human Design allows you to refine and elevate who you already are instead of trying to become someone else. If you've been questioning your direction, struggling with self-trust, or feeling scattered as the year begins, this conversation offers grounding insight and a powerful reframe. Listen now!

In this final episode of Educate to Self-Regulate for the year, and my first solo episode, I'm diving into one of the most important phases of self-regulated learning: Metacognitive self-reflection.As we wrap up 2025, I'm unpacking:• Why planning–monitoring–evaluating really matters• How metacognitive prompts can deepen your own learning• Practical tools like PMI, SWOT, and Start–Stop–Continue to guide more meaningful reflection• What this year taught me through the podcast, from AI as a metacognitive partner to Queenwood's smart study approach, strategy-building in primary classrooms, learning journals, and long-form conversations with researchers• What's coming in 2026I'm also sharing two strategies I'm leaning on as we enter the break:✔️ Show up to rest the same way you show up to training✔️ Recalibrating meditation as a non-negotiable part of my routineWherever you are, I hope this episode helps you pause, reflect, and set yourself up for a strong 2026.

In this episode, I read an article I wrote for LinkedIn that explores some of the conversations I've had recently with friends and colleagues. I'm asking the questions like around mid-career crossroads and how we decide if and when we are happy. This is the first episode in a series where I will bring guests to talk with me about this very topic.

 Visit us at Network2020.org. The architecture of international engagement is shifting, and subnational diplomacy is taking center stage. As federal governments scale back traditional foreign policy and funded diplomacy, cities and states are emerging as more prominent actors on the global stage, forging direct international ties to address global issues such as climate change, migration, trade, and public health. As local leaders are increasingly shaping the frameworks of cooperation once reserved for national capitals, this trend raises important questions: How might cities and states recalibrate aid and international engagement to reflect their own priorities? What lessons can be drawn from U.S. cities like New York City, Los Angeles, and Atlanta as they assert themselves on the global stage? This panel will examine what it means for New York and other cities to be more global in this changing landscape and will explore how public-private partnerships, business engagement, and city-level climate diplomacy are giving new contours to international engagement.Join us for a discussion with Pablo Fernández Marmissolle-Daguerre, Assistant Secretary-General for Partnerships at the United Cities and Local Governments; Kristen Edgreen Kaufman, Senior Vice President at the United States Council for International Business and former Deputy Commissioner in the NYC Mayor's Office for International Affairs and current, and Dr. Raffaele Marchetti, Professor in International Relations at the Department of Political Science and the School of Government of LUISS and the Director of the Center for International and Strategic Studies.  Music by Aleksey Chistilin from Pixabay 

I can't remember the last time a Manchester United player other than Bruno Fernandes was a viable FPL asset, but Cunha and especially Mbeumo finally appear to be hitting their stride. Could it be time to invest? In the striker department, Haaland is of course unnegotiable currently; Mateta isn't too far off, having racked up a whopping 7.99 xG in just nine games—only marginally less than Haaland himself. Who should our third forward be? Jacob and Jiayang have both become rather enamored with Igor Thiago, though one could also make good arguments for Woltemade and Kroupi Junior. Finally, we take some time to critically reassess our fixture-o-meters—that is, our perception of fixture difficulty. Sunderland and Leeds, who we thought would be easy targets at the start of this season, have shown thus far that they are more than capable of holding their own. On the flip side, West Ham, Wolves, and Nottingham Forest have been worryingly bad. Perhaps it would be wise, at least for the moment, for us to purge from our memory the fact that they have typically been solid, mid-table teams, each of them even having competed for Europe in recent years.

Episode 356. It's time to Recalibrate from the madness. The U.S government has shut down leaving 1000's without a job. House prices are high, food prices are high and interest rates are high. And this comet called 3i/Atlas is acting more like an alien spaceship than a natural phenomenon. Hopefully we can get though the other side of this unscathed. Hopefully!!!

In this episode, Gresham reflects on his own experience of being laid off, admitting that if he'd known about franchising sooner—and had the capital—he might have taken a different route. This personal revelation has led him to pivot toward a B2C focus aimed at helping people who have been laid off find new opportunities. Gresh candidly discusses the challenges of juggling multiple responsibilities—running a new franchise brokerage, caring for a baby, and managing fatigue—while emphasizing that there's never a “perfect” time to start a business. He stresses the importance of leaning on a supportive team and maintaining relentless effort, noting that progress only happens when you keep pushing.  Blue Star Franchise: http://bluestarfranchise.com Browse the Franchise Inventory: https://bluestarfranchise.com/franchise Is franchising right for you?

What happens when the motivators and drivers that once fueled your success suddenly stop working? In this raw and real episode, I share my own journey of navigating postpartum shifts, caring for my family through crisis, and rediscovering who I am as a leader, coach, and human. From grief over who we used to be, to the hidden gaps in our working years, to the invitation to recalibrate our values and vision, this conversation is for anyone feeling like the old script no longer fits. I'll walk you through why it's time to re-examine your values, how identity shifts shape our purpose, and what it means to move from doing to being.   Plus, I'm sharing a free values worksheet to help you start your own recalibration.   Check out past episodes at www.spitfirecoach.com/episode 

You've outgrown who you were — but others still relate to your past self. If you feel misunderstood in your growth, this episode will help you stay aligned even when others don't know how to meet the new you.You're growing. Recalibrating. Becoming someone more rooted, more aligned — and suddenly, the people around you don't quite know how to connect. The conversations feel shallower. The support less relevant. And while no one is pushing back… you feel the space.This episode of Identity-Level Recalibration speaks to the quiet ache of being misunderstood during growth. Julie Holly offers a compassionate yet grounded perspective: What if that disconnection isn't a problem — but proof you're expanding beyond old expectations?You'll learn how identity shifts trigger emotional dislocation, how the nervous system reads misunderstanding as rejection, and why staying congruent matters more than being fully understood.Using Tyler Perry's journey as a powerful example, Julie shows how staying true to your assignment — even when others don't understand it — is an act of integrity, not arrogance. And you'll walk away with a practical Micro-Recalibration that helps you model this kind of alignment, especially if others look to you for leadership.This is your reminder: you're not behind. You're becoming.In This Episode, We Cover:Why identity growth often leads to temporary relational distanceThe phrase “no one gets me” and what it really means during expansionEmotional dislocation vs rejection — how your nervous system confuses the twoWhy trying to fit old expectations stifles identity integrationTyler Perry's story as a case study in misunderstood alignmentHow to stay present in relationships without performing for approvalThe ILR lens on growth: clarity over comfort, identity before explanationPractical leadership language for navigating misunderstanding with graceToday's Micro-Recalibration:Ask yourself:Where have I mistaken misunderstanding for rejection?Where have I paused my growth to be more palatable to others?Anchor this:“I don't have to be fully understood to be fully aligned.”If you're leading others, mentoring someone, or raising kids — model this.Show them that growth doesn't always come with applause — and that integrity sometimes looks like quiet confidence, not public clarity.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

The Aftermath of Live Events and the Importance of Integration   The shift that occurs at live events (e.g., Superhuman Selling Live Event in Portland). Recognizing the feeling of an "inner snap" or "click" after an event. The distinction between exciting breakthroughs and the essential nature of integration for lasting power. The goal of grounding the leap and locking in a "new normal" of ease, wealth, and power. The risk of losing momentum, collapsing frequency, or talking oneself back into smallness.   Core Concepts: Identity, ROI, and Faith   The focus on identity shifts and their impact. The concept of Return on Investment (ROI) in personal growth and business. The role of faith, particularly faith in oneself.   The Parable of Talents as a Metaphor for Personal Gifts   Introduction to the Parable of Talents as a framework for discussion. The parable's interpretation as representing gifts, capacity, and vision. The contrast between investing and multiplying talents versus burying them. The master's expectation of growth and utilization of what is given. Applying the parable to personal calling and potential, and one's unique frequency.   Overcoming Resistance and Recalibrating to Higher Frequencies   The concept of an "activation" experienced at events. The idea of speaking without scripting and selling from pure alignment as a "home frequency." The "crabs in a bucket" analogy (specifically mentioning Kukui crabs and Robert Kiyosaki's book) to illustrate external resistance. The nervous system's tendency to pull individuals back into old patterns, urgency, and metrics of worth. The common fumble point: not anchoring the "upgrade." Experiencing feelings of being "off," slow, or uncertain after growth periods. Defining this as "recalibration" rather than regression. The nervous system adjusting to a "new altitude" or higher consciousness. Embracing discomfort as a sign of moving beyond the known.   Brandon's Personal Journey of Holding Back Gifts   Brandon's realization of holding back personal gifts, not due to disbelief, but fear of being "too much." The self-imposed limitations of protecting others from their full voice or light. The subtle impact of holding back, slowing down progress in unproductive ways. The connection between hesitation and the obstruction of overflow.   The Wisdom of "Share the Scar, Not the Wound"   Introduction of the adage: "Share the scar, not the wound." Brandon's initial misunderstanding and later realization of its meaning. The underlying reason for not sharing wounds or scars: fear of doubt from others regarding current strength. The realization that people need the "true version" of oneself, not a perfectly polished one. The importance of showing healing and the learned path, rather than a lack of past struggle. The role of integration in stabilizing transformation for serving from it, not bleeding from it.   Connecting Personal Growth to Tangible Results and ROI   The dual desire for the "woo" (spiritual or mindset work) and tangible results. The impact of meditation and nervous system regulation on decision-making, retention, and creativity (citing Harvard and Stanford research). Higher EQ, closing rates, greater retention, and bigger deals as outcomes. The significant advantage (e.g., 20%+) that can be gained. Operating from identity versus operating from performance. The benefits of identity-based operation: faster selling, smoother scaling, attracting loyal clients. The work is about functioning better, not just feeling better, without burnout.   Community Support and Ongoing Integration   Mention of resources within the "Superhuman Selling community" (e.g., guided recalibration, audio meditations). The ongoing process of integration and achieving "Overflow" as a new normal. Brandon's community coaching and mastermind discussions on "grounding the leap" and "not collapsing frequency." The importance of a "container" or additional space for integration after events. The consequence of lacking such support: loss of momentum and feeling drudgery. A call to action to create such support if not already available.   Final Call to Action: Investing Talents and Stopping the Leak   A direct question to the audience: are they investing their talents or burying them? The need to stop hiding behind mastered strategies and address where energy is being leaked. Identifying areas of shrinking from what is rightfully theirs. Recognizing the pre-existence of calls and tools. An invitation to reach out if ready to stop burying talents and to discuss the next steps for their gifts. The process of grounding the leap and making overflow the new normal. Shifting from chasing sales to becoming a "signal voice."

In this episode, we call out the problems that have arisen as a result of adoption of and adherence to the Freebirth Society ideology while also holding space for a woman's legal and moral right to choose to have a Freebirth.Ultimately, this is about the need for leaders to act in integrity and for everyone to remember that rarely two truths exist in extremes. All choices are valid, however in order for them to be authentically empowered, they must be made with true informed consent and an informed risk assessment which is unlikely to happen if a birthworker has solely received a virtual training rooted in biases, hyperbole, and a lack of evidence, just as much as it's unlikely to happen with a fearful OB who is encouraging weekly routine ultrasounds and a 39 week induction.We unpack the overused and misused phrase “variations of normal” in order to delineate a few examples of what would actually be abnormal and a reason to seek additional support.Freebirth continues to be a valid choice, however women deserve to have the full scope of outcomes objectively presented to them in all fairness.Risk is inherently everywhere, and there will always be a mysterious element to loss, however the key is to walk into your pregnancy with a true sense of confidence and options rather than a false sense of one.Recommended resources:Free MOTR Questions Guide to Vet Your Birthkeeper/AttendantReddit, so you can be the judge of what's wrong with this organizationNathan Riley podcast episode featuring Kristine LauriaDr. Sarah Wickham's book “What's Right For Me”“Whose Body Is It” podcast episode featuring midwife Mary Lou SingletonSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

Letting go of who you were might be the hardest part of becoming who you're meant to be… but it's also where real growth begins.   In this episode, Corinne shares what it feels like to stand between two versions of yourself: the one you've known and the one you're becoming. She uses the image of climbing a mountain to illustrate the process of personal evolution, how reaching new heights requires more than just ambition. It takes recalibration. It means noticing what no longer fits and being willing to set it down, even when those pieces once felt essential.   What identities have you outgrown? Which routines or roles feel heavy, even though they've helped you get this far?   Corinne offers examples of how change shows up in business, in relationships, in daily habits, and why releasing old versions of ourselves can bring up unexpected emotions. Sadness doesn't mean the change is wrong. It means you're paying attention. She also speaks to the fear that often comes with growth: fear of disappointing others, fear of leaving familiar dynamics behind. Naming those fears out loud is part of stepping fully into the next version of you.   This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask yourself: who am I ready to become, and what's one action I can take today to move in that direction?   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Love and Relationships   01:40 Travel and Recharging   02:22 Recalibrating for Growth   03:27 The Mountain Metaphor   05:04 Letting Go of Old Identities   08:07 Shifting Into Leadership   12:02 Releasing People-Pleasing   14:09 Embracing Duality   15:46 Fear of Disappointing Others   17:33 Self-Reflection and Daily Action     Links Join the VIBE Membership: https://www.corinnemorahan.com/vibe-membership   Connect With Corinne: https://www.gridandglam.com/ https://www.corinnemorahan.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gridandglam/ https://www.instagram.com/corinnemorahan/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/corinnemorahan/ https://www.facebook.com/gridandglam Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
