Fear can feel like “the facts,” when it's really your nervous system trying to keep you safe. On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, Cindy Costley shares how survival patterns can quietly shape symptoms, choices, and self-trust. This episode is for anyone stuck between science, spirituality, and “what actually works.” You'll hear a layered approach to healing—where biology, energy practices, faith, and inner re-patterning meet—so you can move from protection to possibility, gently and safely. About the Guest: Cindy Costley is the creator of the Electromagnetic Body Desensitization Technique (EBDT) and the voice behind a four-pillars healing approach bridging Western science, Eastern practices, spirituality, and Scripture. She shares her lived experience of decades of chronic illness and how safety-based healing changed her relationship with her body. Episode Chapters: Mic trouble & restart for clarity (00:03:30) Choosing the topic: fear + four pillars (00:08:01) “My body wasn't failing me”—it was communicating (00:13:22) Trauma as biological first, not just psychological (00:14:49) Four pillars explained: science, energy, spirituality, Scripture (00:17:44) Fear stored as “allergy”: the dairy story (00:26:05) Healing in layers + retraining safety over time (00:31:56) Key Takeaways: Notice where fear “decides” your life—then name it as protection, not identity. Track symptoms as signals: “What might my body be trying to keep me safe from?” Heal in layers: address the root trigger before challenging the pattern. When you feel an instant “no,” get curious: belief, or old protection? Practice safety-talk: calm reassurance after regulation (not during survival mode).

What if getting organized didn't mean becoming a completely different person? What if it meant working with your brain instead of against it? In this episode of Chasing Brighter, we're kicking off our March theme — Organized, Not Perfect — and having an honest conversation about why traditional organization advice often leaves women feeling behind, overwhelmed, or like they're “doing it wrong.” Because here's what we believe: You don't need a prettier planner. You don't need to wake up at 5 a.m. You don't need a Pinterest pantry. You need simple systems that support your actual life. The one with kids in sports. The one with late nights and early mornings. The one that's beautifully full — and sometimes chaotic. We're exploring: Why perfection-based organization increases stress The difference between supportive systems and rigid expectations How to reduce friction in your daily life Why the goal isn't aesthetic — it's ease And how to build structure that feels like freedom Chapters 00:00 Navigating Connection and Disconnection 08:42 Shifting Perspectives in Relationships Connect With Us:

P.S. The audio starts from the second clip, i.e., the 00:34 second mark. Oops!In this 1 hour 15 minute session, I read:

Is it ever too late to awaken? Nichole Bigley sits down with Jen Lovell, host of the podcast Halfway to Dead, for an honest and grounding conversation about spiritual awakening in midlife. Jen shares her journey through religious conditioning, childhood trauma, health challenges, and major life losses — experiences that ultimately led her back to her intuition and authentic self. Together, Nichole and Jen explore why awakening often happens later in life, how intuition is a birthright, and what it really means to do the inner work required for healing. This episode gently dismantles the idea that spiritual awakening has to look dramatic, instantaneous, or happen at a particular stage in life. Instead, it reveals awakening as a gradual remembering — one that often comes when we are finally ready to choose ourselves. Tune in to explore the following with Nichole and Jen:  Why spiritual awakenings often emerge in midlife. Reconnecting with intuition after years of disconnection. Religious deconstruction and redefining personal spirituality. Trauma, illness, and loss as catalysts for awakening. Shadow work, forgiveness, and self-responsibility. Why it is never too late to return to yourself. This episode is a reminder that awakening does not follow a schedule — and that no matter where you are in life, you can always begin again. You can listen to Jen's podcast, Halfway to Dead, where she shares honest conversations about midlife, spirituality, and becoming your most authentic self.

Cora Rennie was a good girl who did everything “right.” Military. Marriage. Motherhood. Long-term partnership. From the outside, her life looked good. Inside, though, something felt off. Cora shares how divorce, a passionate but painful second relationship, and the looming reality of an empty nest forced her to confront the fact that her nervous system, not her conscious mind, had been choosing her partners. As she learned about people pleasing, the fawning response, and what safety really feels like in the body, she started making choices from a different place. If you have ever wondered why you keep repeating patterns in love, or why midlife feels like a blank slate you did not ask for, this episode will land.Guest Bio Cora is a recovering people-pleaser, and identifies as a highly sensitive deep-feeler. Through her training to become a biodynamic craniosacral therapist, Cora gained profound insights into the body's innate wisdom, and learned directly in her own body, the importance of a felt-sense of safety.Cora incorporates the foundations of the cranio modality with her personal gifts and own lifelong healing experiences, to support others in their recovery-of-self processes. She believes there are key components to true, deep, lasting healing that communicate directly to the physiological wiring of our systems, and providing those elements allows for us to cultivate a deep sense of self, resilience, and trust.Her work combines an understanding of natural body responses with deeply attuned presence, for those navigating complex emotional landscapes.Turning 40 and choosing safety over chemistryWhen Cora Rennie divorced her husband at 36 after 18 years together, it shocked everyone around her. From the outside, their marriage looked steady and intact. Inside, they were two conflict-avoidant people growing further apart through miscarriage, postpartum struggles, military deployments, and years of emotional disconnection. What followed was a fast, passionate relationship filled with chemistry, red flags, financial strain, betrayal, and hard-earned clarity. But beneath the relationship drama was a woman beginning to understand how a lifetime of living by “the next step” had shaped her choices. In her early 40s, staring down the reality of becoming an empty nester, Cora finally made a choice that felt like her own. And that changed everything. In This Episode, We Talk About:How a “good girl” identity can quietly become a people-pleasing pattern that runs your lifeThe moment Cora realized she could not stay in a marriage where emotions were unwelcome but intimacy was expectedWhy intense chemistry can cloud discernment, and how oxytocin plays a role in bondingOverlooking red flags, merging finances, and losing herself in a relationship that felt like a “love story” but not a “life story”Reconnecting with creativity, sensuality, and art as part of reclaiming her identityDiscovering the fawning response and how the nervous system can unconsciously choose our partnersFacing the empty nest transition and asking, “Who am I now?”The difference between living by default and making a conscious, heart-led choiceHow biodynamic cranio psychotherapy and nervous...

Mentor Sessions Ep. 054: Peter McCormack & Dr. Jack Kruse Fabian Society Exposed: History, Money, Power, & HealthWhat if a centuries-old Fabian Society plot is secretly reclaiming absolute control over UK politics, money, and power—tying into Bitcoin's decentralized revolution, Epstein's hidden genome obsession, and the urgent need for true health, time optimization, and mass noncompliance?

I'd love to hear from you - Send me a text message Healing Isn't Serious, It's Sacred and PlayfulSomewhere along the way, healing became heavy.We were taught that growth has to be intense. That transformation must be serious. That if we're not digging deep into trauma, we're not doing it “properly.”But what if healing is not meant to feel like punishment?In this episode, I explore the power of joy, laughter, and lightness in the healing journey. We talk about why some of our most powerful, grounded, and clear moments happen when we are laughing deeply… when we feel playful… when we feel safe.I share reflections on:• Why joy is a sign of nervous system safety• How seriousness can become a survival pattern• The energetic power of laughter• Reconnecting with your inner child• How subtle inner child work can create profound shifts• Healing across time — past, present, and futureThere is great power in joy.There is clarity in play.There is healing in celebration.This episode is an invitation to soften… to reconnect with the part of you that once felt carefree… and to remember that healing is not just about processing pain, it's also about reclaiming your light.The episode concludes with a separate guided meditation: Inner Child Joy Activation.May this be your reminder that healing isn't serious.It's sacred.And it's playful.

What really happens at a swinger hotel takeover? People have a very specific picture in their head when they hear that phrase. Some of it's true… a lot of it isn't. In this episode we're taking you inside a real lifestyle hotel takeover and walking you through how these events actually unfold. We arrive at the hotel, the place is already buzzing, rooms are decorated, drinks are flowing, and within about five minutes Mrs. Sno is making plans with the guy staying next door. That plan escalates quickly. At one point Mr. Sno is standing on the balcony watching the beginning of it, and not long after that he's downstairs waiting for food delivery while his wife is still upstairs very much occupied. From there the night turns into exactly what swinger hotel takeovers are known for — room crawls, themed suites, spontaneous hallway flirting, and the strange reality that these lifestyle parties somehow feel both wild and weirdly normal at the same time. We also talk about the part most people outside the swinging lifestyle don't see: how couples communicate in these environments, why some connections happen instantly, and why others completely miss each other. If you've ever been curious about what a swinger hotel takeover is actually like from the inside, this episode is probably the most honest look we've given.

In this episode of Women & Wellbeing, Natalie is joined by movement and embodiment coach Abigail Beckingham for a powerful conversation about the connection between the body, emotion and our natural rhythms as women. Together, they explore what it means to release emotion through movement — not as performance or fitness, but as expression. Abigail shares how stored feelings can live in the body, and how intentional movement can help us process what words sometimes cannot. During the conversation Abigail talks about handling big emotions without suppressing them. About creating safe space to feel anger, grief, joy and everything in between and about learning to see emotional intensity not as something to fix, but something to understand. She also talks about the thinking behind Kinesiology and how it can be used to aid us in recovery. A central theme of the episode is leaning into our natural female cycles — recognising that our energy, creativity and capacity shift throughout the month. Rather than fighting those changes, Abigail encourages us to harness them. To align productivity with high-energy phases, and to give ourselves permission to slow down, think and feel when our bodies ask for it. Together, we discuss: – Releasing emotion through movement – Understanding and processing big feelings – The wisdom of the menstrual cycle – Productivity through alignment, not pressure – Giving yourself permission to pause – Reconnecting with your body's intelligence and the thinking behind Kinesiology This is a conversation about trust — trusting your body, your emotions and your rhythms. An invitation to move, to feel, and to honour the season you're in.

Fluent Fiction - Hebrew: Purim Pathways: Reconnecting Hearts on Tel Aviv's Promenade Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/he/episode/2026-02-21-08-38-20-he Story Transcript:He: בעונת החורף בתל אביב, הטיילת מלאה בהכנות לפורים.En: In the winter season in Tel Aviv, the promenade is full of preparations for Purim.He: ים גדול, רחוק וקריר, אלא שגם הלבבות מרגישים חמים בגלל החג המתקרב.En: The sea is vast, distant, and cool, yet hearts feel warm because of the approaching holiday.He: אנשים מתהלכים על הטיילת, מחופשים ומחייכים, מחכים להתחיל בחגיגות.En: People walk along the promenade, disguised and smiling, waiting to begin the celebrations.He: הריח מהים מתערבב עם ריח עוגות אזני המן הנמכרות מהדוכנים.En: The smell of the sea mixes with the aroma of hamantaschen cakes sold from the stalls.He: אני לא יודע מה הביא אותה לשם, אבל יעל פסעה לבדה לאורך הטיילת.En: I don't know what brought her there, but Yael was walking alone along the promenade.He: היא בדיוק חזרה לישראל אחרי שנים ארוכות בחו"ל.En: She had just returned to Israel after many years abroad.He: בתוכה רצתה למצוא מחדש את תחושת הבית והקשר לשורשים שלה.En: Deep down, she wanted to rediscover her sense of home and her connection to her roots.He: יעל עצרה ליד פסל אבן ישן, מנקה את הפנים מחשבות.En: Yael stopped by an old stone statue, clearing her mind of thoughts.He: היא ידעה שטמר, אחותה החיה והמשמחת, מארגנת מסיבת טרום פורים סמוך לטיילת.En: She knew that Tamar, her lively and cheerful sister, was organizing a pre-Purim party near the promenade.He: אבל היא לא הייתה בטוחה אם תעיז ללכת ולהצטרף.En: But she wasn't sure if she dared to go and join.He: בינתיים אריאל, מוזיקאי מוכר ואהוב, הסתובב עם גיטרה תלויה על כתפו.En: Meanwhile, Ariel, a well-known and beloved musician, was strolling with a guitar slung over his shoulder.He: הוא הסתובב בין המדרכות ומדי פעם התבונן לתוך הים כמו מחפש תשובה לשאלה לא פתוחה.En: He wandered between the sidewalks, occasionally gazing out at the sea as if seeking an answer to an unspoken question.He: הוא חזר לעיר לאחר סיבוב הופעות עולמי, נסחף אחרי יופיים של המקומות אך מרגיש רחוק מהבית.En: He had returned to the city after a world tour, carried away by the beauty of places yet feeling distant from home.He: זה קרה במקרה.En: It happened by chance.He: יעל בדיוק הרימה את מבטה כאשר ראתה את אריאל.En: Yael had just lifted her eyes when she saw Ariel.He: היו להם זיכרונות מהילדות, מהשכונה הישנה, אבל הזמן הרחיק ביניהם.En: They had memories from childhood, from the old neighborhood, but time had distanced them.He: בידיים רועדות ניגשה אליו ושאלה, "אריאל?En: With trembling hands, she approached him and asked, "Ariel?He: זה באמת אתה?En: Is it really you?"He: "היא חששה שהוא לא יזכור, אבל החיוך הרחב על פניו סיפר סיפור אחר.En: She feared he wouldn't remember, but his wide smile told a different story.He: "יעל!En: "Yael!He: כל כך הרבה זמן עבר," אמר אריאל באושר.En: So much time has passed," Ariel said happily.He: השיחה ביניהם התגלגלה על הסרטון האישי, על הנסיעות בעולם ועל האחווה היהודית.En: Their conversation flowed over personal experiences, world travels, and Jewish fellowship.He: הם דיברו גם על הקושי, על הגעגועים, ועל הרצון לחזור ולהתחבר לשורשים.En: They also talked about the challenges, the longing, and the desire to return and connect with their roots.He: יעל הרגישה משהו מתעורר בתוכה.En: Yael felt something awakening inside her.He: היא הרגישה את הצורך להשתחרר מהצל שהשאירה לעצמה.En: She felt the need to break free from the shadow she had left for herself.He: "אתה רוצה להצטרף למסיבה של טמר?En: "Do you want to join Tamar's party?"He: " שאלה בחשש קל אך גם בתקווה.En: she asked with slight apprehension but also with hope.He: "תמיד רציתי לחזור להיות עם החברים הישנים," אמר אריאל.En: "I always wanted to reconnect with old friends," Ariel said.He: המסיבה של טמר בטיילת הייתה בדיוק כפי שיעל ציפתה: צבעונית, שמחה והרפתקתית.En: Tamar's party on the promenade was just as Yael had expected: colorful, joyful, and adventurous.He: יעל ואריאל הגיעו יחד ואנשים שמחו לראותם.En: Yael and Ariel arrived together, and people were happy to see them.He: בעודם צוחקים, יעל הרגישה פתאום שהקשרים המשפחתיים והחברויות מאירים מחדש.En: As they laughed, Yael suddenly felt that family bonds and friendships were lighting up again.He: היא הבינה שטמר היא לא תחרות, אלא אחות שעוזרת לה לגדול ולהשתחרר.En: She realized that Tamar was not competition, but a sister helping her grow and break free.He: היא חשבה על הים הרחב והמרחקים שחצתה.En: She thought about the vast sea and the distances she had crossed.He: על התקלות המקריות שיכולות לשנות את הדרכים.En: About the chance encounters that can change paths.He: בתוך המולת השמחה והחג, יעל קיבלה תחושה שהיא כן שייכת לבית שלה, למשפחתה ולסיפור שפשוט כבר מחכה להשלמתו.En: Amidst the joyous noise and celebration, Yael gained a sense that she truly belonged to her home, her family, and the story simply waiting to be completed.

“Because the truth is, there's a lot of magical hotels out there. But what makes something truly unique is the location in which it is, because our hotels aren't buildings that were built. They are beautiful essences, that were renovated with love and were kept the same. They were just polished. Nothing from our hotels was changed.”We're in great company with Marialuisa D'Angelo, the Managing Director of The D'Angelo Family Collection, a thoughtfully curated portfolio of intimate boutique hotels and organic vineyards, woven across three of Italy's most evocative regions—Lecce, Matera, and Lake Como. Alongside her parents, Marialuisa has rebuilt these rare sanctuaries with unwavering intention—spaces where local artisans and farms shape every sensory detail, where silence is luxury, and where the art of slowing down, “il dolce far niente,” feels like coming home. In this episode, Marialuisa shares how a childhood spent moving between eight countries taught her that stories are humanity's shared currency, and how that belief now shapes every meal, every room, every moment at her family's collection.Top Takeaways[2:00] Born in Southern Italy but raised across eight countries, Marialuisa developed a profound love of storytelling and realized the power of human connection from an early age. [5:10] Her parents' return to Italy was rooted in gratitude—a desire to give back to the country that shaped them. Marialuisa's path, however, was her own—a desire to return to the family business where she could tell stories that mattered.[10:20] It started in Matera, her father's hometown, with a neglected palazzo. Success there sparked Villa Mojana on Lake Como, then Palazzo Zimara in Lecce—three intimate sanctuaries born from opportunity and deep regional roots.[12:25] In a world where constant connection breeds disconnection, The D'Angelo Family Collection are sanctuaries designed to pause that cycle—where each space invites guests to simply be present.[16:00] Three distinct landscapes, one philosophy—Lecce's baroque streets and limestone walls echo Florence's grandeur, Lake Como offers Alpine silence surrounded by green, Matera's neolithic caves whisper ancient history. Each property is lovingly restored—never reinvented—preserving the essence of places where culture and agriculture intertwine.[18:40] Guided by her mother's architectural motto "less is more"—guests feel home away from home, surrounded by the authentic essence of the place from the strategic lighting to the local artisans, and regional services.[22:55] Menus shift monthly with the seasons, sourced in a true kilometer zero philosophy. Open kitchens invite chefs to share stories of local producers directly with guests, while communal tables turn strangers into friends and meals into memories.[28:10] The D'Angelo Family's organic wines anchor every property through tastings, wine baths, pairing menus, and workshops. Each sip connects guests to volcanic terroir and the belief that true hospitality is about meaningful experience, not just consumption.[32:10] In a generation creating memories through screens, Marialuisa hopes to instill the magic of authenticity, identity, and real connection—believing family businesses leave the most meaningful footprints on earth.Notable MentionsThe Sassi of Matera, UNESCO World Heritage SiteArcidiaconata, Organic Aglianico del Vulture D.O.C.Cuccù from MateraLimonta on Lake ComoVisit For YourselfThe D'Angelo Family Collection Website | @thedangelofamilycollectionPalazzo Zimara | @palazzozimara | @labocca_restaurant_Villa Mojana di Limonta | @villa_mojana_bellagioIl Palazzotto | @ilpalazzottomatera Radino Wine Bistrot | Francesco Radino Wine | @radinowine10% off when you email directly with code SIGC25

In today's fast-paced world, I see parents and children navigating a landscape filled with distractions, technology, and high expectations. In a recent episode of Illuminating Being, I sat down with Dr. Keith Somers, a practicing pediatrician, to explore a concept that really resonated with me: the cycle of competitive detachment versus the cycle of cooperative companionship.

Today on the Invest In Her podcast, host Catherine Gray talks with Lauren Grattan, Co-founder and Chief Community Officer of Mission Driven Finance. Lauren's background in nonprofit development made her eager to activate more capital for social change, ultimately leading her to co-found Mission Driven Finance, where she leads community-based strategy and shapes both internal culture and partner relationships. With nearly a decade of experience fundraising for organizations ranging from large universities to grassroots initiatives, Lauren brings a deeply values-driven perspective to capital allocation. Her blended Irish, Chinese, and Native Hawaiian heritage informs her commitment to reconnecting capital and community, and she has served in leadership roles with the Inclusive Capital Collective at Zebras Unite and Business for Good San Diego.  In this episode, Lauren and Catherine explore how traditional financial systems often overlook mission-driven entrepreneurs—and what it takes to redesign capital to serve people, not just profits. Lauren shares how Mission Driven Finance structures investments to support underestimated founders, especially women and entrepreneurs of color, while still delivering disciplined financial returns. They discuss the importance of trust-based relationships, creative capital stacks, and community-informed underwriting, as well as the mindset shift investors must make to prioritize long-term impact over short-term extraction. The conversation also highlights how women can step into the role of capital allocators—whether as founders, fund managers, or individual investors—to help close systemic funding gaps and build a more inclusive economic future. https://www.missiondrivenfinance.com/ https://www.showherthemoneymovie.com www.sheangelinvestors.com    Follow Us On Social Facebook @sheangelinvestors Twitter (X) @sheangelsinvest Instagram @sheangelinvestors & @catherinegray_investinher LinkedIn @catherinelgray & @sheangels   #InvestInHer #FinancialWellness #WomenInFinance #FinancialEmpowerment #MoneyMindset #InclusiveFinance #FintechForGood #BehavioralEconomics #WealthBuilding #FinancialHealth #EmpowerWomen #MoneyMatters #SheAngelInvestors #InvestInYourself #FinancialFreedom  

In this episode of MyMusic, Graham Coath sits down with Sierra Veins for a conversation that moves far beyond genre and into identity, intensity and what it really means to evolve as an artist.Broadcasting from France, SIERRA VEINS reflects on her transition from SIERRA to a new name rooted in blood, inheritance and self-definition, a change that mirrors the core themes of her latest work. As she explains, the shift wasn't just practical or aesthetic. It was personal. It was necessary. Together they explore the emotional architecture of her music, the tension between aggression and vulnerability, how sound can rewrite parts of your story, and how identity is shaped by both what we inherit and what we choose. The conversation touches on:Why did the themes become central to her artistic direction..Reconnecting with the “little girl” who first played the synthesiser at two years old.Touring major stages while remaining intensely inward.Why scoring a dark, dystopian film remains her biggest dreamThere's humour here too, from VR mishaps to merch ideas, but at its heart, this is a discussion about intensity, reinvention and accepting that some parts of us never truly disappear.As Graham asks in his closing question:If identity is written in the blood… can we ever really become someone new?Listen now to MyMusic with Graham Coath, then sit with the music in full.

Many leaders reach a point where success no longer feels fulfilling. In this Leadership Bites episode of The C-Suite Mentor Podcast, host Theresa Cantley explores what to do when you feel stuck, burned out, or disconnected from your purpose as a leader. Through a powerful real-world client story, Theresa breaks down why leaders lose passion, how misalignment between identity and role creates frustration, and why growth often feels uncomfortable before it feels empowering. This episode dives into how to shift from leading from the outside in to leading from the inside out by reconnecting with who you want to be, how you want to feel, and what truly makes you come alive as a leader. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, unsure of your direction, or questioning your leadership path, this episode will help you recalibrate, refocus, and take the next right step forward with clarity and confidence.     Things to Listen For • Why feeling lost is often a sign you are being asked to grow [01:12] • How leading from an old identity creates friction and burnout [05:02] • The difference between outside-in leadership vs inside-out leadership [07:18] • How intention shapes your daily leadership actions [09:10] • Why reconnecting with what makes you come alive restores motivation [11:02] • How misalignment between role and identity drains passion [12:20] • How to define your personal leadership philosophy [13:04] • Why growth always comes with discomfort and uncertainty [14:22] • The next right step to regain clarity and alignment [17:20] • Final leadership reflection and practical next step [19:10]     Shownotes In this Leadership Bites episode, Theresa Cantley shares a powerful coaching conversation with a long-time leader who felt burned out, overwhelmed, and disconnected from his passion. Feeling Lost Is Often a Signal for Growth Feeling lost does not mean you are failing. It often means you are being invited into your next level of leadership. Growth naturally brings discomfort, uncertainty, and friction when you try to lead from an old identity that no longer fits who you are becoming. Inside-Out Leadership vs Outside-In Leadership Many leaders attempt to meet expectations, industry pressure, and external demands first. This creates misalignment. True leadership clarity begins by reconnecting with who you want to be, how you want to feel, and what matters most before reacting to external noise. Reconnecting with What Makes You Come Alive When leaders drift away from the activities that energize them, burnout follows. Reconnecting with what brings you alive restores momentum, creativity, and purpose in your role as a leader. Redefining Your Leadership Philosophy Rather than reacting to what others think you should be doing, define your personal leadership philosophy. These principles guide how you lead, how you make decisions, and how you shape culture within your business. The Power of Intention in Daily Leadership Setting a daily intention changes how you show up. Instead of operating on autopilot, intention allows you to lead with clarity, focus, conviction, and alignment throughout your day. Finding the Next Right Step Clarity does not come from doing everything at once. It comes from taking the next right step that aligns with who you are becoming as a leader. Small aligned actions create powerful momentum over time.     Final Leadership Reflection Leadership growth requires letting go of who you were so you can step into who you are becoming. When you reconnect with your intention, your identity, and what makes you come alive, you regain clarity, confidence, and direction.

EarthWorks has returned from a fantastic week in Orlando at the GCSAA Trade Show and Conference, and by every measure, it was a tremendous success. On Wednesday afternoon, we welcomed friends from across the industry to our booth for cocktails. The space was packed from start to finish, and venue staff told us the EarthWorks gathering was the largest event on the show floor.Throughout the week, we spent valuable time with our distributor partners aligning goals for the year ahead while also connecting with countless turfgrass managers to answer questions, exchange ideas, and simply catch up. Those conversations remain the highlight of the show for our team. Reconnecting with longtime colleagues, some relationships spanning decades, and hearing both professional successes and personal updates is always deeply rewarding.One noticeable trend this year was the number of new companies entering the “organic” space. To us, this signals that EarthWorks' nearly 40-year commitment to biological soil management continues to influence the industry in meaningful ways. We repeatedly heard from clients that EarthWorks has risen to the forefront of the carbon-based fertility movement, with more companies embracing a soil-first philosophy.As we shared stories from the week, the team also discussed opportunities to refine our approach for next year. And while there may be one notable exception, most of us are already looking forward to gathering again in New Orleans.Visit EarthWorks at: https://www.earthworksturf.com Podcasts: https://www.earthworksturf.com/earthworks-podcasts/ 2 Minute Turf Talks: https://www.earthworksturf.com/2-minute-turf-talks/

What if everything you've been told about spirituality and mental health is wrong? In this powerful episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Anna Yusim—Clinical Assistant Professor at Yale Medical School, co-founder of the Yale Mental Health & Spirituality Program, and author of Fulfilled: How the Science of Spirituality Can Help You Live a Happier, More Meaningful Life—reveals the biggest misconception about spirituality and why it's not about religion, “good vibes,” or blind belief…it's about science, psychology, and lived experience. Dr. Yusim explains how connection to a higher power can measurably improve mental and physical health, how to have authentic spiritual experiences without religion, and the two ways to manifest—including which one actually works (and which one most people get wrong). Dr. Yusim also breaks down: - How spirituality, meditation, and manifestation can change your physiology, mood, & nervous system - What it really means to raise your frequency & how to do it in real life - Unconscious reprogramming: what it is and how to use it to break old patterns - Why surrender opens the door to creative solutions - How to overcome victim mentality while balancing personal responsibility & external circumstances - Breaking intergenerational cycles of self-sabotage using family constellation therapy - How to tell when family conflict can be healed, and when boundaries are necessary - How to protect yourself from energy vampires Dr. Yusim also explores the mystical edges of psychology, and where science draws the line: - 3 types of intuition and 4 intuitive pathways for receiving extrasensory information - Similarities and differences between psychics and schizophrenia, and how information is received in each case - Whether telepathy is heightened intuition, if anyone can access it (& whether they should) - Where spiritual practices fit inside a Western psychiatric model - How she clinically distinguishes between healthy intuitive experiences & serious mental health conditions that require treatment We also discuss: - How after-death communication through psychic mediums can help people process grief (and when it becomes unhealthy) - Crown Reading vs Third Eye Reading - Whether everyone has spirit guides or guardian angels, and how to navigate conflicting messages - Dr. Yusim's personal journey with claircognizance and the psychic reading that shifted her life path - Karmic patterns and the soul's repeating lessons - How to tap into your Higher Self - 3 universal truths found across all spiritual and religious traditions - How psychedelics help process trauma from a psychiatric perspective - Why the Law of Attraction may not be working for you - Why some people can train themselves to hold their breath for extraordinary lengths of time This episode is the bread & butter of MBB, bridging psychiatry, spirituality, intuition, trauma, and healing, without bypassing science or mental health!

The opposite of quitting is recommitting. And sometimes that means you need a spelled-out roadmap to help you define what steps you can take to recommit to recovery. Today's episode is different. I'm not speaking in theoretical terms or giving advice I wouldn't follow myself. I'm sharing exactly what I would do if I was trapped in an eating disorder right now. The actual steps. The concrete path forward. The golden nugget roadmap I would follow myself. Whether you're experiencing a relapse, stuck in your recovery, or wish you could go back and tell your younger self what to do—this episode is your clear, actionable guide. In this episode, you'll discover: The 6-step roadmap I'd follow if I was trapped in an eating disorder today Why relapse is normal and doesn't mean you've failed Step 1: Recognition and acceptance—how to get out of denial faster Step 2: Immediate outreach—breaking the isolation that keeps you stuck Step 3: Implementing structure—what to do RIGHT NOW to support yourself Step 4: Investigating triggers—what's really driving this beneath the surface Step 5: Developing a crisis response plan—how to create lasting recovery Step 6: Reconnecting with your WHY—the values your ED is violating What I wish I could tell my younger self 15+ years ago Why recovery isn't about perfection—it's about progress How to recommit to your best self starting TODAY If you're in the trenches, if you've relapsed, if you're struggling—this roadmap is for you. Not theory. Just honest, practical steps. THE 6-STEP RECOVERY ROADMAP STEP 1: RECOGNITION AND ACCEPTANCE The hardest step: Admitting where you are is no longer where you want to be. If I was relapsing today, I know I'd experience a strong pull toward denial. I might tell myself: "I'm just being more careful about what I eat" "I'm having a few bad days" "I can handle this on my own" What I'd do instead: ✅ Name what's happening - Get out of denial faster ✅ Ask myself: Am I skipping meals? Preoccupied with food thoughts? Anxious around mealtimes? Weighing myself? ✅ Practice self-compassion - Not excusing the behavior, but acknowledging eating disorders are complex illnesses, not personal failures ✅ Say to myself: "This is really hard. I don't have to do this alone." This step creates the foundation to move forward in ACTION instead of sitting in denial. STEP 2: IMMEDIATE OUTREACH Eating disorders thrive in isolation. My counter-attack would be CONNECTION. What I'd do: ✅ Contact someone I trust - In my case, my mom. I'd say: "I'm struggling with my thoughts and behaviors. I need support." ✅ Get professional help immediately If I had a treatment team: Contact them and say "I'm experiencing relapse. I need an appointment ASAP." If I didn't: Call primary care doctor, get a referral, look into local ED treatment centers ✅ Get accountability - Schedule meals, keep appointments with myself, check in with someone Key truth: Don't wait until things get "bad enough." Early intervention makes a tremendous difference. Breaking isolation doesn't mean everyone needs to know. It means strategically connecting with people who can provide support. STEP 3: IMPLEMENTING STRUCTURE What I'd put in place immediately: ✅ Regular eating patterns - Have a plan ready, no reinventing the wheel during vulnerable times. Use the same meals daily to reduce decision fatigue. ✅ Clean up social media & entertainment Unfollow accounts that trigger comparison or food obsession Avoid shows glorifying thinness or dieting Curate recovery-supportive content Join communities like Her Best Self Society (HerBestSelfSociety.com) ✅ Set clear boundaries with exercise - Temporarily pause formalized exercise, focus on gentle movement (This requires support—I couldn't do this alone) ✅ Document thoughts & feelings - Not to be perfect, but to increase awareness of patterns and triggers. Rebuild trust with body and mind. Structure = support. Not rigidity, but safety. STEP 4: INVESTIGATING TRIGGERS Eating disorders aren't just about food or weight. What's really happening beneath the surface? Questions I'd ask myself: ❓ What changes in my life have happened recently? (Transition, loss, increased responsibility, relationship change) ❓ What emotions am I struggling to manage? ❓ What am I trying to numb, distract from, or control? ❓ What needs aren't being met right now? ❓ What external pressures am I responding to? ❓ What beliefs am I believing about my worth, body, or identity? The truth: Eating disorders flare during periods of change and loss of control. Understanding triggers helps you heal beyond just the behaviors—you learn to process emotions in healthier ways. STEP 5: DEVELOPING A CRISIS RESPONSE PLAN Lasting recovery requires more than just putting out fires. What I'd create: ✅ Coping strategies - Tools to use when urges arise ✅ Relapse prevention plan - Document early warning signs, high-risk situations, actions to take ✅ Support system - Who to call, when, and why The sustainable plan is about building a life where: The eating disorder becomes less necessary and less powerful Recovery feels like moving TOWARD something meaningful Not just running away from illness Work with someone to determine exactly what support you need and put that planning in place. STEP 6: RECONNECTING WITH YOUR WHY The most important step: Remember what the eating disorder is stealing from you. What I'd do: ✅ Identify the values my ED violates The ED promises control, safety, worth. But it actually undermines: freedom, joy, creativity, authenticity, relationships, purpose. ✅ Compile a list: What has this ED taken from me? Holidays ruined Relationships lost Moments with loved ones missed Energy wasted Dreams on hold Future opportunities destroyed ✅ Ask: What present moments is it stealing RIGHT NOW? What future opportunities will be destroyed if I don't fix this? ✅ Dream beyond the disorder - What do I want my life to look like? Who is my BEST self? If I could go back 15+ years and tell my younger self: "You're gonna go through this godawful period, but on the other side is MAGICAL. You'll experience things you never would've allowed—wonderful relationships, contributions to the world, PURPOSE. Start dreaming NOW of the vision beyond this disorder." KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

“Curiosity is a foundation for connection.” –Nathalie PinchamDoing everything you're supposed to do and just running on fumes? Knowing you're good at what you do (but starting to wonder) because business is floundering? You're not alone! And there are things you can do. I'm diving into that with coach Nathalie Pincham.Nathalie works with people on both strategy and success mindset. That includes figuring out what's holding you back, and it could be what made you successful to this point.She's created a series of 10 archetypes that can help you understand yourself and your business and believes in the power of curiosity.We talk about: Reconnecting with your purpose — and getting help figuring out what's blocking youProfit vs. revenue — figuring out your numbersWhy you shouldn't be doing everything in your business just because you canBetter questions to ask than “what do you do?”What opens up when we stay curiousBringing more intentionality and connecting to purpose to all thingsABOUT NATHALIE Nathalie Pincham of Your Success Tonic offers strategic coaching for visionary leaders and founders and believes one curious question can change the whole trajectory of your week (or your business!).LINKShttps://www.yoursuccesstonic.com/https://www.yoursuccesstonic.com/quizhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nathaliepincham/DOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Action is how change happens.Often we feel like our actions have to be huge to match the bigness of our desires, but we have seen over and over and over again that the little things add up. By stacking up a series of Doable Changes, you will create that big change that you crave. Choose the one that really resonates with you this week and really make it part of your life. Here are Three Doable Changes from this conversation:ANCHOR IN YOUR WHY. If you're feeling like things aren't working, take some time to remember your why. Why are you doing this? What really matters? Remind yourself that you are doing something valuable and have something important to share. This allows you to start building your business from a place of strength.ASK DIFFERENT QUESTIONS. Instead of asking “What do you do?”, ask people: What do you need? What drives you? What inspires you? Be curious about them. See what opens up when you ask questions that let people show you more of themselves.COACH FROM CURIOSITY. In conversations with...

In this solo Valentine's Day episode of Orgasmica, I invite you to reimagine what this day can truly be whether you're single, partnered, heartbroken, in love, or somewhere in between.Valentine's Day doesn't have to be about expectations, pressure, or performance. It can be about connection—connection to yourself first, to your body, your heart, and your sexual energy as a source of life, creativity, and truth.In a world that feels more dangerous, heavy, and uncertain by the day, many of us carry guilt around pleasure, intimacy, and desire. We've been taught often unconsciously that connecting with our sexual energy is selfish, indulgent, or inappropriate during hard times. But what if it's actually the opposite?In this episode, I speak about why reclaiming your sexual energy is not a luxury it's a necessity. Why going inward, listening deeply, and honoring your own connection is the path back to sovereignty, resilience, and personal power. And how choosing presence over expectation can transform not only Valentine's Day, but the way you relate to love, intimacy, and yourself.This is an invitation to soften, to feel, to come home to yourself and to remember that your pleasure, presence, and aliveness matter.

This Valentine's Day-inspired episode is not about planning date nights or buying new lingerie (though I love both of those too)- it's about something even deeper that you and your husband can do to reconnect if TTC has left you feeling a little meh in the intimacy department.  We will talk about 4 scriptures that point to biblical truths about marriage, and my number one tip for feeling like you are on the same team and reconnected!   Verses: Genesis 2:24 Matthew 18:19-20 Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12 Mark 10:9    Watch the FREE Masterclass Unexplained Infertility Breakthrough   Apply for a free 20-minute clarity call: Application    Let's work together: Work with me    DM me on Instagram: @fruitfulfertilityco

We tell ourselves we're being “realistic,” when really, we're just afraid to be hurt again.In this week's episode, I talk with Cody, a woman learning how to reconnect with her husband after years of criticism, conflict, and silence. Together, we explore what it truly takes to soften the walls that once kept them each safe, but now keep love out.Listen to learn: •How self-protection turns into emotional isolation•What it means to shift from “negative peace” (avoiding conflict) to real peace (rooted in connection)•Why awareness of tension is the first step to healing•How to speak to your partner from vulnerability instead of defense•Simple phrases that help reopen trust after years of guardingIf your heart has grown cautious, this conversation will remind you: softness isn't weakness.

In this episode of Mining Minds, we sit down with Kevin Neville at the Utah Mining Association Convention to unpack a raw, honest journey through underground hard rock mining, international contract work, and the realities of chasing success without losing yourself along the way. From his first awe-filled moments descending a shaft at Resolution Copper to managing the mental, physical, and emotional toll of long rotations in Mexico, Kevin shares what it truly means to grow up in the mining industry. Kevin talks about the value of hard work learned early in life, the power of mentors who shape careers underground, and the importance of recognizing burnout before it costs you more than a paycheck. We dive into mining culture, leadership lessons, work-life balance, and why underground mining still holds a special place in his heart—even after stepping into a new chapter outside the mine.

In this episode of the Celeste The Therapist Podcast, Celeste reconnects with a familiar voice, Jermaine Morris, a coach and consultant who specializes in self-awareness without judgment. Jermaine shares his approach to understanding human behavior by focusing on how we operate in the world rather than labeling actions as good or bad. Together, Celeste and Jermaine explore the importance of self-awareness, the impact of judgment on mental health, and how shame can quietly keep people stuck. They also discuss how the mental health system can sometimes unintentionally make individuals feel defective, emphasizing instead the importance of recognizing effort—especially during difficult seasons. This thoughtful conversation invites listeners to approach personal growth with greater compassion, curiosity, and grace.

In this electrifying episode of The Feminine Frequency, Amy Natalie is joined by psychic, intuitive, and author Aycee Brown to celebrate the release of her debut book, Embody Your Magic. Together, they peel back the layers of societal "protective armor" to reveal the inherent psychic gifts we are all born with.Aycee shares her journey of growing up in a lineage of intuitive women, dissecting dreams at her grandmother's kitchen table, and learning to trust the "aggressive" clarity of her inner vision. The conversation serves as a powerful reminder that while systems like the patriarchy and religion may attempt to numb a woman's truth, that magic is always accessible—it just requires the courage to let the "old self" die so the "new self" can lead.Themes:We are all born psychic, much like babies and animals, until society and "protective armor" numb our natural sensitivity.How traditional religious structures often prioritize external rules over a woman's internal guidance system.Navigating the space between your spiritual awakening and the societal pressure to doubt your own reality.Reconnecting with your truth starts by asking yourself if you actually want the life you've built or if you're living out someone else's vision.Why "getting it wrong" is actually Spirit's way of redirecting you toward your true path.Instead of quitting your job, start with small "breadcrumbs"—taking a class or exploring a hobby—to allow your purpose to unfold naturally.Real success requires an "ego death," where you must lovingly release the old version of yourself to make room for your new trajectory.Success is not a one-size-fits-all metric; it must be defined by your individual core values, such as community, security, or family.

In this solo episode, Valeria shares why she's intentionally choosing a quieter year, and what that really looks like in a world that constantly asks us to be louder, faster, and more visible. She reflects on her approach to 2026 - why she doesn't want it to be a “bigger” year, and how focusing on less distraction has brought her more clarity and joy. She also recaps a recent trip to the Dominican Republic with her boys, opening up about how different traveling feels now that her kids are older. And how those slower, more present moments reminded her of what truly matters. Throughout the episode, she shares practical shifts she's making - like using the Be Present app, protecting offline moments, and choosing opportunities that expand her life, not just her calendar. From living more offline and rethinking her relationship with social media, to finding balance as a creator whose work exists online, Valeria explores the tension between visibility and peace. And why not everything meaningful needs an audience while it's forming? This is a good listen for anyone craving more calm, fewer distractions, and a slower, more intentional way of living.

In this episode, I'm talking to high-performing women who feel disconnected from their bodies… not just physically, but energetically and emotionally too. If you've gone months or years avoiding mirrors and photos, skipping workouts, ignoring hunger or fatigue cues, hiding in your clothes, or outsourcing your worth to the scale, this episode is for you. You're not broken, but you are checked out. And it's time to check back in. I walk you through a four-phase reconnection framework designed to help you gently and powerfully rebuild trust with your body without guilt, shame, or extreme overcorrection. This is about moving away from punishment and into partnership. I want you to become the woman who doesn't just look good, but actually feels good in her skin again. We talk about honesty without shame, why performative discipline keeps women stuck, how to rebuild safety through pace and structure, why micro-commitments matter more than massive overhauls, and how reclaiming your personal standards is the key to lasting confidence and embodiment. This episode is an invitation to reconnect, not by going backward, but by doing it better this time. In this episode, I cover: Why high-performing women disconnect from their bodies Honesty without shame vs guilt spirals Compassion and accountability Performative discipline vs embodied discipline Pace, ramping, and evaluation for sustainable change Why extreme resets and challenges fail Micro-commitments and rebuilding self-trust Reclaiming personal standards without punishment Choice points and self-leadership Moving from punishment to partnership with your body   For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.
