Podcasts about Refresh

As a busy mom heading into the final stretch of the year, you may feel torn between resting, planning, and getting ready for January. In this episode of the Purpose Driven Mom Podcast, you learn how to reset and refresh before the new year without burnout, guilt, or extreme goal setting. If you want a calm, realistic approach to productivity, routines, and planning for the new year as a working or work at home mom, this episode is for you. Cara Harvey explains why January does not require a full life overhaul and how a gentle reset can be more effective than forcing big changes. You will hear why post holiday exhaustion is normal, how pressure around New Year productivity creates overwhelm, and why small intentional shifts can help you feel more grounded and in control as routines return.

The Falcons face off against the Rams on Monday Night Football, the team that Falcons Head Coach Raheem Morris won a Super Bowl with, and it would probably do coach a favor if the "Super Bowl or Bust" mentality that the Rams have rubs off a little more.

If you've grown weary of traditional resolutions, but you still carry a glimmer of hope that positive change is possible for us imperfect humans—then you'll love mindful intention-setting.  In this practice from his mini-course, mindful leadership trainer Rich Fernandez shows us how to vividly envision the "imagine if" possibilities. When we tap into meaning, passion, and a felt sense of welcoming what we long for, it's easier to get clear on the purpose behind our pursuits.  Rich Fernandez is the former CEO of Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute (SIYLI). He was previously the director of executive education and people development at Google, where he was also one of the first SIY teachers. Rich previously co-founded Wisdom Labs and has also served in senior roles at eBay, J.P. Morgan Chase and Bank of America. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired. Join our community by signing up for our free newsletter:  mindful.org/signup Show Notes Find more from Rich Fernandez here. Go Deeper There are subtle but crucial differences between making traditional New Year's resolutions and setting intentions for the future—because in mindfulness, everything is anchored in self-acceptance and self-love, rather than a quest for endless self-improvement.

In today's Dating Detectives episode, Hannah and Mackenzie are joined by two sisters, Tessa and Lena, who share the heartbreaking story of their mom and the dangerous “healer” who charmed his way into her life. What starts as a new spiritual interest turns into something far darker: a charismatic grifter who peddles bogus “energy readings,” pushes conspiracy-fueled medical misinformation, and steadily isolates their mother from her family, right as serious illness enters the picture. As their mothers health deteriorates and a cancer diagnosis becomes impossible to ignore, the sisters watch in horror as her husband discourages treatment, undermines doctors, and replaces real care with reckless “natural” remedies, leaving them scrambling to protect their mom and regain control of her medical decisions. This is part one of a two-part story about spiritual manipulation, medical abuse, and what it feels like to fight for someone you love when they've been convinced the danger is actually the cure.Click here to join our Patreon!

Are you leaning too much on advice and not enough on action?In this episode, I break down the five essential roles every business owner needs to supercharge their growth—and why relying on friends or familiar faces may be holding you back.Discover how a coach, mentor, advisor, trainer, and consultant each play a pivotal part in your entrepreneurial journey, and get practical strategies to start filling these gaps today.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. Know the Difference: Understanding the unique value each role brings—advisor, trainer, consultant, mentor, and coach—can prevent you from missing out on critical support or wasting time with the wrong type of help. Most entrepreneurs over-rely on advice and under-invest in hands-on coaching and actionable training.2. Fill Every Role—Strategically: You might not have all five roles filled at once, but identifying and approaching the right people (outside your close circle) for these positions is key to real progress. Your growth is limited when you expect friends or insiders to give the objective feedback and expertise you need.3. Take Action, Not Just Advice: Too often, we get stuck collecting ideas but never move forward. Chart out your support team, ask the right questions, and take steps to bring in advisors, trainers, consultants, mentors, and coaches who challenge you, nurture your growth, and help you execute, not just plan.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.

El episodio conversa con Javier, cofundador y CEO de Grupo LMssLM (“La Mafia se sienta a la mesa”), sobre cómo han construido un grupo con cuatro patas: un gran obrador propio en San Mateo de Gállego de 14.000 m² y tres marcas, La Mafia, De Italy y Boutique Trattoria Viajera. El obrador, creado en 2014, produce casi todo el producto para las marcas para garantizar homogeneidad y calidad en toda la red. La Mafia acaba de cumplir 25 años y sigue siendo el buque insignia del grupo. En números, el grupo cerró el último ejercicio en unos 115 millones de euros y va rumbo a 128–130 millones, con un EBITDA cercano a 5 millones. Reparten el resultado entre un obrador que factura ~13 millones y aporta alrededor de 1 millón de EBITDA, unos nueve locales propios con otro millón y las centrales de franquicia con ~3 millones, todo ello con una política de reinversión fuerte en el obrador.El modelo de franquicia se apoya en un CAPEX típico de 500–550 mil euros (con acuerdos de financiación bancaria), un royalty del 5% más un 1% de marketing y márgenes operativos que dependen mucho de la “tasa de esfuerzo” del alquiler.

This week, join us as we revisit our episode on Roofing Cases as a refresher! Original Air Date: August 20, 2021. Most of us are lucky enough to live and work with a roof over our head. But who's to blame when that roof is damaged or defective? Is it the installer's responsibility? Or does the accountability come straight from the source at the manufacturer?  Is there someone else to consider?  It may be all three. From improper installation to storm damage and even intentional acts, roof damage and the resulting liability is complex. On this week's installment, Rebecca and Steve peel back the layers of roofing claims and navigate who is responsible when a roof is defective or contributes to property damage or physical harm.

Erneut hat die Politik in ihren Augen die Rente „sicher gemacht“, indem sie mal wieder ein Versprechen abgegeben hat, nämlich dass die Rente sicher sei. In Wirklichkeit haben die politisch Verantwortlichen aber nur versprochen, anderen Menschen mehr Geld abzunehmen, um es an die Rentner weiterzugeben. Das entspricht einem ordentlichen Ponzi-Schema, bei dem es darum geht, genug Einnahmen zu erzielen, um die Ansprüche der Leistungsempfänger – in diesem Fall der Rentner – zu befriedigen. Letztere stellen angesichts des demografischen Wandels die Mehrheit der Wähler, was erklärt, warum die Politik sich immer stärker an den Interessen der Rentner orientiert. Doch das geht nicht ewig gut, denn es droht nicht nur die Überlastung der Wirtschaft, sondern auch die logische Wirkung der aktuellen Demografie und damit der Kollaps des Systems. Schließlich müssen immer weniger Junge die Versorgung von immer mehr Alten gewährleisten. Genau auf diese Weise scheitert ein Ponzi-Schema. In Episode #203 sprach Daniel Stelter mit Dr. Tobias Kohlstruck. Er leitet bei der Stiftung Marktwirtschaft, einem unabhängigen und überparteilichen wirtschaftspolitischen Thinktank, den Bereich Steuern und Staatsfinanzen.

This week, we're each bringing our own revenge murder case to the table. Two stories fueled by obsession, betrayal, and the kind of plot twists that make you question humanity and pour another drink. Then we dive straight into the new season of Southern Charm, where the “pick me” energy is practically a cast member at this point.We're also talking the surprising (and fabulous) return of Rachel Zoe on RHOBH, because yes, dolls, the fashion is finally back, and we unpack whether the brand-new Vanderpump Rules reboot stands a chance of recreating the absolute cultural chaos of the OG cast.True crime, Bravo breakdowns, and unfiltered opinions — just another week on CCBS.

Strategic plans used to be something boards revisited every three to five years. But today, the pace of change—and the unexpected shocks we've all lived through—are forcing boards to ask new questions: How do we stay involved over time? And how will we know when it's time to shift?In this episode, I share three practical strategies that can give boards a clearer line of sight into progress, keep goals measurable, and build in a refresh point that ensures plans stay relevant. If you're leading in health care or the nonprofit sector, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Ever felt like everything fell apart right after you made progress?In this episode, let's explore the reasons why personal growth often triggers temporary chaos. I'm sharing insights from George Leonard's book "Mastery" and my own journey as an entrepreneur. Let's talk about how setbacks can be signs you're on the right path—and how to get through the mess.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. Progress Can Look Like Chaos: Growth isn't always smooth—sometimes making big moves in your career or business can trigger upheaval. When things appear to “fall apart,” it might actually be a sign you're moving in the right direction and entering a new stage of mastery.2. The Power of Instruction and Learning Order: Picking the right way to learn—whether it's self-paced, guided, or individualized—matters. But more important is understanding the order in which you need to learn things. Having a coach or mentor can help you avoid learning things out of sequence and maximize your progress.3. When to Pivot and Let Go: Losing resources, time, or money hurts, but these moments can serve as powerful signals that it's time to shift your focus or reinvent your approach. Success means knowing when to double down and when to step back, then strategically move forward.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.

Christ Has Come – Week 1Episode Title: The Promised King & His Gift of Hope*Matthew 1:1–6, 16In this Advent episode of the Refresh & Restore podcast, Keith Harris walks through Matthew's genealogy and helps us see how God threads the gift of hope through the real, messy stories of Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba. These women—outsiders, sinners, the broken, and the overlooked—are intentionally highlighted in the lineage of Jesus to show that the promised King came for people just like them…and just like us.Together, we explore:Why Matthew includes four unexpected women in Jesus's family line—and how their presence highlights God's grace.The difference between vague, anxious human hope and solid, biblical hope rooted in the promises of God (Heb. 10:23).How God's faithfulness shines through human sin and suffering, bringing His redemptive purposes to pass through Tamar's tragedy, Rahab's past, Ruth's loss, and Bathsheba's sorrow.How these stories point us to Jesus, the Redeemer who came into a broken world to save broken people (Luke 19:10).The invitation of Advent: to wait with expectation, rest in the faithfulness of Christ, and cling to the hope secured through His coming, His cross, and His promised return.This episode reminds us that Jesus didn't avoid human brokenness—He entered it, redeeming every story touched by sin with His mercy, and offering real, lasting hope to all who call on Him (Rom. 10:9, 13).If you would like to see a written version of this study, complete with footnotes and cross-references, you can find it here.

Hit Reset — Creating a Fresh Start Without Waiting for JanuaryEpisode Title Ideas (optional):Hit Reset: Why You Don't Need January to Become HerStart Today, Sis: Your Fresh Start Begins the Moment You ChooseThe Reset Episode: No More Waiting for the “Perfect Time”✨ Episode SummaryWelcome back, beautiful people! In this episode of the Let Me Fix My Crown podcast, Regina walks us through a truth many of us forget: you do NOT need a new year, a Monday, a milestone, or a perfect moment to start over.If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, mentally cluttered, or stuck in “I'll start tomorrow” cycles — this conversation is your wake-up call.Regina breaks down the myth of the “perfect reset,” shares a personal story about chasing that “January 1st new-me energy,” and gives you simple, realistic steps to begin your fresh start right now. No pressure. No perfection. Just intention and action.

How much farther could you be if you stopped waiting for the “perfect” moment and just started?In this episode, I reflect on my own life and share why waiting for the right time can cost you more than you think.Let's break the cycle of perfectionism and discover the powerful momentum that comes from taking action, one imperfect step at a time.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. Waiting Has a Hidden Cost: When you hesitate, you're not just missing out on opportunities—you're piling up missed chances on top of the ones already lost. Opportunity cost stacks up quickly when you're waiting to be “ready.”2. Action Beats Preparation: The biggest differentiator between those who achieve their dreams and those who don't is simple—action. There will never be a perfect time, so moving forward always trumps staying stuck in preparation.3. Progress Is Made One Step at a Time: You don't need to leap the whole distance at once. Take baby steps consistently; each small move adds up, and before you know it, the progress will surprise you—just keep moving forward.Ready to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.

In his hit 2003 pop science book, A Short History of Nearly Everything, writer Bill Bryson took readers on a journey from the birth of the universe to the inner workings of a cell, and had them laughing along the way. Over 20 years on, Bryson joins Piya Chattopadhyay to explain why he's now updating his seminal work to explore what's changed, what hasn't, and what still amazes him, even in times of existential dread.

In this episode, I break down how the "killer instinct"—the relentless drive that sets legends like Kobe, MJ, and LeBron apart—applies to entrepreneurs determined to reach mastery.Discover how to test your limits, bounce back from setbacks, and avoid common pitfalls on the path to business greatness.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. The Edge is Essential: The killer instinct, or "the edge," isn't just about talent—it's a mindset and way of being that drives you to push beyond your comfort zone, stay hungry, and become a true student of your craft. Entrepreneurs need this edge just as much as athletes.2. Understand and Leverage Momentum: Like in sports, momentum in business can shift for better or worse. Recognize when your motivation fades or your environment resists change, and use this awareness to reset your “thermostat”—that is, your sense of what's possible and achievable.3. Watch Out for Mastery Pitfalls: Achieving mastery isn't a straight path. Drawing from George Leonard's "Mastery," I list the 13 pitfalls to avoid, from obsession with goals to inconsistency and perfectionism. Knowing these traps is the first step to overcoming them. They are:Conflicting Way of LifeObsessive Goal OrientationPoor instructionLack of competitivenessOver competitivenessLazinessInjuriesDrugsPrizes and medalsVanityDead seriousnessInconsistencyPerfectionismReady to Master Your Mindset, Mission, and Message?If today's episode spoke to you, don't just listen—step behind the curtain and join the Journey Feed.
