Send us a textGary Kupik, an international speaker and mental performance coach, reveals how we can unlock peak performance by strengthening our minds just as athletes train their bodies. He shares a powerful framework for building an ironclad mindset that creates consistent results regardless of motivation or circumstances.• Mental performance suffers when we overthink – "thoughts are like calories; too many weigh you down."• Self-trust develops through exposure therapy – putting yourself in challenging situations repeatedly• Optimism differs from positivity by requiring evidence and reasons to believe in yourself• The mindset equation: Experience → Thoughts/Feelings → Response → Belief → Mindset → Behaviors• Creating winning daily rhythms puts you in position to succeed regardless of motivation• Reframing nervousness as excitement changes your hormonal response from cortisol to adrenaline• Winning the day early (by 8AM) through consistent mental performance rituals builds momentum• Mental health often stops at crisis and coping but mental performance focuses on thrivingSupport the showFollow Playing Injured on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/playinginjured/

By Sarah Bird, who is a professional business writer and editor with more than 30 years of experience working with large corporate organisations. As we enter the era of automation and artificial intelligence (AI), business leaders should encourage employees to make human stories their differentiator. When I spoke with Bobby Kerr recently on his "Down to Business" podcast about midlife career transformation, his parting comment was: "Well I'll be 65 this year and hopefully there's some hope for me in the employment market!" With his ample helping of Irish charm and interview skills, I can't imagine Bobby being out of work any time soon. But there are plenty of other people who have found themselves unemployed - myself included. After 30 years of consistent freelance work as a business writer with a global management consultancy, I was "let go" in favour of AI software. An indication of who's winning in the "man versus machine" debate or an opportunity to change our career narrative? From neural networks to narratives Recent research supports the idea that midlifers may be struggling more than most. The World Health Organization has acknowledged that every second person in the world is believed to hold ageist attitudes. While nearly one in five over 55s (19%) responded to another study that they did not feel confident enough in their current skillset to find new employment or pivot their career if they were to lose their current job, compared with one in 10 (8%) of under 55s. Even the national press notes bias for those seeking work in their 50s and 60s, made worse by automated application tracking systems and algorithms. As one candidate summed up: "After six months of tumbleweed, it got to the point that I had to stop job-hunting for the sake of my mental health. I felt completely invisible". Fears and concerns are often fuelled by the positioning of technology and its influence on the workforce. In 2023, an MIT Technology Review article reported an interview between the UK prime minister at the time, Rishi Sunak, and Elon Musk where the latter declared there will come a time when "no job is needed," thanks to an AI "magic genie that can do everything you want". Embrace multi-storied lives But it's easy to hear only one side of the story. As we learn more about the brain, we recognise that firing neurons repeatedly creates pathways in the brain - and can mean negative stories stick. Yet we all have access to neuroplasticity; that is, our brain's ability to rewire itself. Studies among midlifers show it's still possible to develop new neural pathways even later in life by undertaking such tasks as learning a new language or a musical instrument. Adapting our mindsets has become even more critical in recent years. Since the pandemic, our personal and professional lives have blended in an unprecedented way, opening the door to some of the techniques that separated those lives in the past. One such technique is Narrative Practice. The birthchild of therapists Michael White and David Epston, Narrative Practice helps people to express deep seated concerns or challenges and uses powerful storytelling tools to liberate those who feel stuck with thoughts or behaviours that are questionable, inaccurate or simply unhelpful. Based on the idea that we are all experts in our own lives, Narrative Practice is a respectful, non-blaming approach that focuses on empowering the individual - and can be adapted to enhance the workforce of the future. Applying these tools could benefit leaders and innovate the retention and engagement of the workforce by externalising problems to diffuse challenging situations, reframing personal narratives to encourage authenticity and reinventing the narrative across the business to spur collaboration. Three steps to career storytelling No matter what our age, we're all work-in-progress. Reframing thoughts and attitudes is not easy but accepting that resilience is a lifelong project and making storytelling part...

Start with quick wins, start with test pilots, test the concepts, show the results, quantify the results so you can build momentum in launching new pricing models." — Alan Hollander   Topics Covered: 01:30 — Alan's pricing journey: From Tom Nagle's student to Strategic Pricing Group veteran 02:45 — The AI pricing dilemma: Pricing products with AI vs. using AI for pricing 04:15 — Why AI pricing isn't different: It's still all about jobs-to-be-done and value creation 11:15 — The nonprofit sector challenge: Selling efficiency when budgets are already tight 14:30 — Human augmentation vs. job replacement: Reframing the AI conversation 16:45 — The Salesforce problem: When AI doubles productivity but revenue stays flat 19:20 — Blackbaud's approach: Combining user-based and consumption-based models 21:45 — Market segmentation reality: Financial vs. fundraising as separate buying centers 24:10 — The PayPal model: Why percentage-of-success pricing works for fundraising 26:30 — Optional pricing models: Letting customers choose fixed vs. variable approaches 28:45 — The operational reality check: Systems and processes needed for pricing flexibility 31:00 — The "crawl, walk, run" philosophy: Building momentum through incremental wins   Key Takeaways: "Per user is not going to be the answer. You're going to stagnate because unless you're just going to increase your per user price, it doesn't align with how they consume, how they use, what value they get." — Alan Hollander "Sometimes you have to do the right things before you do things right... you can have a beautiful strategy in terms of how you monetize and price, and it's very elegant and you've done all the analytics and it looks super cool. But sometimes you actually need to basically what I would say, do a crawl, walk, run." — Alan Hollander "If you don't lead with the value, I don't care if it's AI, SaaS, it doesn't matter what it is. If you don't lead with the value in a business case... you're not going to get anywhere." — Alan Hollander   Resources and People Mentioned: Blackbaud: https://www.blackbaud.com/  Tom Nagle: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-tom-nagle  Reed Holden: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-holden-913ab69/    Connect with Alan Hollander: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alan-hollander-753167/  Email: alan.hollander@blackbaud.com   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Morning Mantra: "Your perspective can be your power or your prison".Life is all about perspective and how you look at something.  If you change your perspective, you will change your experience.  Everyone has their own thoughts, views and interpretation.Your perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.  It's not the things that happen but rather your interpretation of them. It's about the meaning you choose to give to the things that happen.Many of our problems will change to less important ones if you change how you think about them.  For example, the difference between seeing something as a setback or an opportunity is perspective.Reframing your perspective is a powerful growth move. When you feel stuck or resistant to something, pause and look for the upside.  This will turn every situation into a chance for growth, wisdom and understanding.When a photographer can't change a scene, he changes his angle and his lenses to capture the best of that scene. Similarly, when you can't change a situation in your life, change your perspective to get the best out of the situation.Change your perspective, change your life.#BeWillingToLookAtADifferentAngle #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

Why Communicators Need to Think Like Operations Experts - with Lizabeth Wesely-Casella

What if empathy isn't just about being nice, but your secret weapon for building systems that actually work? Lizabeth Wesely-Casella, CEO of L12 Services, spent her early career in construction wearing hard hats and reading blueprints in the 90s. She learned that communication wasn't just a nice-to-have—it was survival. That foundation led her to combine behavioral science, Lean Six Sigma, and internal communications into frameworks that create "clarity from chaos." What We Dig Into The Real Definition of Empathy in Business - Why feeling your team's pain (not just acknowledging it) changes how you design processes and communications. Why Structure Creates Freedom - How the right frameworks liberate people instead of constraining them. The Communications Chaos Tolerance Problem - Organizations are drowning workforces in messages. How to figure out what people can actually handle. People as Your Most Critical Channel - Your middle managers are communication channels, not just message recipients. AI as an Enabler (The Bad Kind) - Are we using AI to avoid the hard work of prioritization and focus? The CATS System - Her Communication Accountability Tool that holds leadership accountable for actually communicating. Why This Matters In our fractured landscape where priorities multiply daily, Lizabeth's approach of disciplined focus and human-centered processes feels essential. Whether you're managing return-to-office mandates or trying to get teams to read internal communications, this conversation bridges strategy and tactics. Notable Quotes "Clear communication was going to be my superpower. And it was, it was really the foundation of all good projects." - Lizabeth Wesely-Casella [05:54 → 06:07] "Our worlds are overwhelmed and it is noise. No matter whether you're getting your internal comms at the office or you're getting your advertisements on television or the radio, whatever, we are all at our max capacity for absorbing any more information." - Lizabeth Wesely-Casella [36:28 → 36:48] "Accountability means that we've created a structure that connects the dots, where along the way you'll be able to make sure that you are in line with what's expected of you and you don't have to have a major course correction." - Lizabeth Wesely-Casella [46:58 → 47:13] "My preference would be for people to focus on how to use AI in the internal comm space as a way of creating strategy for low engagement, for channel use, for opportunities to create greater organizational awareness between silos." - Lizabeth Wesely-Casella [58:28 → 58:47] "That's where the Internal Comms Pro becomes the specialist in understanding what the priorities are, reducing the noise and making really strategic decisions about what gets communicated. Because you can't communicate everything." - Lizabeth Wesely-Casella [1:03:58 → 1:04:14] Resources and Links Dan Nestle Inquisitive Communications | Website The Trending Communicator | Website Communications Trends from Trending Communicators | Dan Nestle's Substack Dan Nestle | LinkedIn Dan Nestle | Twitter/X Lizabeth Wesely-Casella L12 Services | Website Communication Accountability Tools (CATs) Bundle | Download Lizabeth Wesely-Casella | LinkedIn Timestamps 0:00 Intro: Empathy as a strategic advantage 5:19 From construction to communications expertise 10:10 Combining behavioral science and Lean Six Sigma 17:06 Overly optimistic about multitasking capabilities 24:42 AI as potential enabler of bad behaviors 31:27 Challenges of AI summarizing internal comms 39:43 Reframing accountability as a positive tool 46:18 Creating common language around accountability 51:26 AI adoption causing process breakdowns 58:28 Using AI strategically in internal comms 1:04:52 The irreplaceable human element in communication (Notes co-created by Human Dan, Claude, and  Flowsend.ai ) Learn more about your ad choices.

What If It's Not a Setback—But a Setup? Turning Roadblocks Into Redirection

Encouragementology

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're asking: What if your setback isn't the end of the road, but a setup for something greater? Too often, we treat failure like a stop sign—something to fear, avoid, or be ashamed of. But what if it's actually a signpost pointing us toward a better path, one we couldn't have seen without the detour? This week, we're flipping the script on disappointment and getting curious about the hidden wisdom in rejection, reroutes, and redirections. Think about a time when something didn't go your way—and now you're secretly (or loudly) grateful. That job you didn't get, the relationship that fizzled, the opportunity that slipped through your fingers…maybe that wasn't a failure, but a filter. We'll explore the difference between giving up and giving in, and how to know when you're resisting growth or simply being rerouted to a better destination. Let's dive in! We'll start by unpacking a few key terms and ideas that will help frame the rest of our conversation. Setback – A setback is typically defined as an interruption in progress—a problem or delay that keeps you from moving forward as planned. It's that moment when things don't go according to script and you feel like you've hit a wall. Most of us interpret a setback as failure, rejection, or a signal to give up. But what if that interruption is really a signal to pause, recalibrate, or shift direction? Setup – When we say a “setup,” we're talking about a reframing of perspective. Instead of viewing the problem as a block, we start to see it as a preparation—a moment meant to teach us, shape us, or even protect us from something we can't yet see. A setup can feel frustrating in real time, but it's often that pivot point we later recognize as essential. Giving Up vs. Giving In – These two sound similar but have very different meanings. Giving up means you stop trying—throw in the towel, close the book, walk away from the possibility. Giving in, however, is a more nuanced choice. It means you adjust. You yield to a new reality or modify the plan—not because you're weak, but because you're willing to grow. It's not quitting the goal; it's choosing a wiser way forward. Reframing Failure – This is where the mindset shift begins. Instead of labeling failure as the end, we see it as a necessary part of success. Many people we admire failed multiple times before finding their true direction. Reframing means we no longer fear failure—we learn from it. We use it. By grounding ourselves in these definitions, we give ourselves the freedom to move through life's plot twists with a bit more grace—and maybe even a little optimism. The Importance of Letting Go of Control The Value of 'No' How to Deal with Disappointment CHALLENGE: Stop labeling your setbacks as stop signs and start seeing them as scenic detours—opportunities to learn, grow, and arrive even more prepared. Trade the urge to give up for the courage to give in—to adapt, realign, and continue your journey with wisdom and grace. I Know YOU Can Do It!

“Your soul doesn't run on human time. It runs on sacred time.” What if the pressure you feel to “hurry up” and have it all figured out… is based on a lie? In this episode of Soul Talk, I dive into one of the most painful illusions we've been taught: the belief that we're behind in life. Whether it's love, purpose, abundance, or healing, many of us are carrying a quiet grief. Grieving the timeline we thought we should be on. The milestones we expected to hit by now. The version of life our ego mapped out, but our soul never signed off on. We compare ourselves to others. We ask, “Did I miss my moment?” “Am I too late?” But here's the truth: You are not late. You are right on time. In this episode, I get real about what it means to trust your soul's divine timeline, even when things feel delayed, quiet, or unclear. I unpack how societal pressure, ego, and unhealed wounds drive us to rush, to push, to force outcomes. But what if your delay is not denial… but divine preparation? I share personal stories from my journey and powerful spiritual wisdom to help you stop measuring your worth by deadlines or outcomes, and start aligning with the rhythm of your soul, where peace lives, purpose flows, and real miracles unfold. If you've ever felt stuck, anxious, or unworthy because your life doesn't “look” like it's supposed to, this is your reminder: You are becoming. You are preparing. And the timing of your life is sacred Tune in and learn how to trust your path, reframe your waiting season, and finally release the pressure to be anywhere other than exactly where you are. Timestamps: (00:03:13) -Society's manufactured timelines and the myth of “being late” (00:04:32) - Why your delay is not a punishment but a preparation (00:06:24) - You cannot miss your destiny or screw up your divine timing (00:07:15) - The difference between linear time and soul time (00:08:26) - Surrender, patience, and divine trust (00:09:26) - Divine delays as protection and preparation (00:10:18) -  A personal story: why Kute wasn't ready for love in his 20s (00:11:32) - Delay as divine grace and soul alignment (00:12:49) - Stop comparing your journey, trust your own soul's curriculum (00:13:35) - Delay forces surrender and identity growth (00:15:15) - Reframing your waiting season as strengthening (00:16:06) -  You're not forgotten, your delay is not denial (00:17:18) -  Why it will all make sense in time (00:18:11) - Don't settle for “it works”, wait for what's right (00:19:22) - Trust the unfolding; do not compromise Some questions I ask: Is it too late for me to manifest my dream? How can I stay grounded during long periods of waiting? What if I feel like I've missed my moment in life? Why does everyone else seem to be ahead? Can I trust the timing of my life even when nothing makes sense? In this episode, you will learn about: How to break free from the illusion that you're “running out of time” and start aligning with your soul's divine timing. Why delay is not denial, but a sacred part of your soul's preparation for purpose, prosperity, and expansion. The hidden spiritual reasons your dreams may not have manifested yet, and how to shift from frustration to faith and flow. What secure, grounded love actually feels like so you can attract healthy, lasting relationships. How to trust the unfolding of your journey and surrender control so you can receive abundance, love, clarity, and fulfillment in the right season. The difference between ego timelines and soul alignment, and how to know which one you're living by.

“To be an effective climate optimist and person who cares about sustainability, you need equal parts of two different ingredients. The first is inspiration, because if you don't believe you can make a difference, and if you don't believe that what you do matters, then you're not going to try. You also need the other ingredient of empowerment. If you are really, really encouraged to try to make a difference, but you're not given the tools or the knowledge, then all that energy dissipates and becomes wasted.” —Charlie Sellars   What if sustainability wasn't a burden, but an invitation? For too long, we've been told to shrink our impact and feel guilty for not doing enough. But what if the real power lies in small, positive choices that actually feel good and make a difference?  Charlie Sellars, the Director of Sustainability at Microsoft and author of What We Can Do: A Climate Optimist's Guide to Sustainable Living, has spent his career turning eco-anxiety into practical, empowering action. His journey proves that you don't need to be perfect—or even an expert—to make sustainability work for your life, your business, and your happiness. Tune in as Justine and Charlie break down how to reframe sustainability from a source of stress into a source of strength, sharing real-life stories, actionable tips, and a new way to think about your impact—one that's positive, empowering, and actually doable. Meet Charlie:  Charlie Sellars is a Director of Sustainability at Microsoft, which pledged to become Carbon Negative, Water Positive, Zero Waste, and Protect Ecosystems by 2030.

In this episode we explore one big long answer to an email from Bob about why people refuse to spend money in retirement despite having more than adequate resources.  We touch on the math and psychology of the Possibility Effect and how to use Base Rates to overcome that, what the numbers say you really should be afraid of, how to break down expenses to alleviate fears and the real underlying problem in many cases, which is not fear, but personal identity rooted in "Frugality Inertia."And THEN we our go through our weekly and monthly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Books Referenced:"The Top Five Regrets of the Dying" by Bronnie Ware"Falling Upward" by Richard Rohr"Strength to Strength" and "Build The Life You Want" by Arthur Brooks"The Second Mountain" by David Brooks"The Soul of Wealth" by Daniel Crosby"The Art of Spending Money" by Morgan Housel"Die With Zero" by Bill PerkinsAdditional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterMorgan Housel Podcast:  The Morgan Housel Podcast, Episode 1: The Art of Spending MoneyNarrative Psychology:  How to tell stories that give you meaning | Jane Goodall, Terry Crews & Dan McAdamsChooseFI Pod #508:  508 | 5% SWR, Revealed Preferences, and the 3 Stories | Frank VasquezFour Idols Video:  https://tinyurl.com/4vua3eb2 Satisficing:  Satisficing - WikipediaBreathless AI-Bot Summary:This episode tackles the psychology behind the "golden coffin" phenomenon – wealthy retirees who maintain sub 3% withdrawal rates, essentially ensuring they'll die with maximum assets. While justified as prudent planning, the real barriers to enjoying retirement wealth are more complex and fascinating.We dive into cognitive science, exploring how the "possibility effect" (identified by Kahneman and Tversky) distorts our risk perception. Your brain amplifies the tiny probability of running out of money while downplaying the vastly higher probability of running out of time. A 55-year-old man has an 11.3% chance of dying within 10 years – yet many obsess over financial scenarios with less than 1% probability of occurring.Beyond cognitive biases lies an identity crisis. Many successful investors have spent decades defining themselves through wealth accumulation. This "frugality inertia" becomes so embedded in self-image that spending feels wrong, even when mathematically sound. The financial services industry exploits these fears, selling products that promise impossible certainties while encouraging hoarding behaviors.The solution? Reframing retirement spending around four evidence-based wellbeing categories: relationships, experiences, work avoidance (paying for freedom from tedious tasks), and giving. These categories reliably generate happiness returns far superior to watching account balances grow. For those struggling to make this psychological transition, books like "Falling Upward" (Rohr), "Strength to Strength" (Brooks), and "The Soul of Wealth" (Crosby) provide frameworks for evolving beyond accumulation as life purpose.What retirement story are you living? The miser who dies rich but unfulfilled, or the transformed Scrooge who discovers generosity's joy? The choice defines not just your retirement, but your legacy.Support the show

In this thought-provoking episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we speak with Aaron Scott —author, ex-Wall Street hedge fund founder, and host of The Evolved Podcast. Together, we unpack how the modern world subtly programs us through systems like education, government, medicine, and media—and how to awaken within them without abandoning ourselves. Aaron shares the core framework from his upcoming book The Architecture of Awakening, revealing how aligning with your true self—rather than resisting the system—is the key to reclaiming autonomy and inner peace. We explore practical strategies to integrate spiritual truth, reframe failure, and recognize our interconnectedness in a world of illusions. About the Guest:Aaron Scott is a modern-day deconstructivist with a background on Wall Street and a heart centered on truth. He went from founding a hedge fund to leading an alternative therapeutics company. Now, his mission is to help people awaken to their true nature amidst societal programming. His upcoming book The Architecture of Awakening and The Evolved Podcast are powerful resources for navigating identity, consciousness, and collective evolution. Key Takeaways: Most modern systems shape our identities unconsciously; awakening starts with awareness. Real power comes not from rebelling but from integrating spiritual truth into daily life. Reframing failure as growth is essential to breaking free from indoctrination. We are not separate from others or the planet—diversity and connection are universal truths.

Groundbreaking research is reshaping what we know about pelvic health for active women. This episode dives into three significant developments that challenge conventional wisdom about incontinence, pregnancy exercise, and pelvic organ prolapse.The first revelation? Athletes who experience leaking during exercise actually have stronger pelvic floors, not weaker ones as previously thought. Recent studies from both strength athletes and endurance runners confirm this surprising finding. The real culprits appear to be coordination deficits (the pelvic floor contracting too late during impact) and weak gluteal muscles that fail to properly support the pelvic floor system. This suggests we need to move beyond simple Kegels to address the entire core system.Equally exciting is new research examining highly active pregnant women who exercise more than 300 minutes weekly in their third trimester. These women experience fewer delivery complications than less active counterparts, though they show slightly higher rates of diastasis recti postpartum. Rather than recommending exercise reduction, we should focus on strengthening these athletes' core muscles and considering external support options to help them safely maintain their preferred activity levels.Perhaps most transformative is the medical community's reconsideration of pelvic organ prolapse definitions. With up to 50% of women having anatomical findings that would classify as prolapse but only 3-8% experiencing symptoms, we're questioning whether we're pathologizing normal anatomy. The vagina naturally moves and shifts throughout the day—it's not a rigid structure. Current assessment methods don't reflect real-world function, creating unnecessary fear for many women.These research developments collectively signal a more sophisticated approach to pelvic health—one that considers coordination, functional movement patterns, and individual variability rather than simplistic strength-focused solutions. For active women navigating motherhood, this evolution promises more effective support with fewer unnecessary restrictions.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.
