In this Christmas Eve solo episode, I shift gears from our recent focus on online safety and talk about one of the most common—and painful—issues I see in long-term marriages: roommate syndrome. That quiet drift where intimacy fades, connection feels awkward, and marriage starts to feel more like co-parenting logistics than a romantic partnership. If you've ever laid in bed next to your wife feeling disconnected, unwanted, or unsure how things got this way, this episode is for you.   I share my own experience falling into roommate syndrome after years of marriage, kids, exhaustion, and unmet expectations. We talk about resentment, covert contracts, why nagging is often a cry for connection, and how most men were never taught how attraction actually works in marriage. I also explain why marriage—like jiu-jitsu or any skill—requires training, intentional effort, and doing what most men aren't willing to do if you want a relationship that's truly on fire.     Timeline Summary: [0:00] What roommate syndrome feels like when intimacy has faded. [1:39] Why so many marriages slowly slip into "friend zone" dynamics. [2:02] The statistic that 57% of married couples experience this season. [2:28] How resentment, logistics, and exhaustion kill connection. [3:07] Closing out the online safety series and shifting topics. [3:50] Why Larry chose to release this episode on Christmas Eve. [4:26] Introducing roommate syndrome as a core marriage issue. [5:03] Larry's 22-year marriage and personal experience with disconnection. [6:17] How kids, work, and busyness slowly erode intimacy. [6:53] When sex starts to feel transactional or obligatory. [7:13] Why "nagging" is often a bid for attention and being seen. [7:33] Sitting on opposite ends of the couch scrolling instead of connecting. [7:56] Covert contracts and resentment in marriage. [8:17] Why solving instead of listening makes wives feel unseen. [8:56] Awkward date nights and avoiding real conversations about intimacy. [9:18] A client story that began with signed divorce papers. [9:41] How real change happens when a man does the work. [10:15] Why becoming the man you're meant to be changes everything. [10:57] Marriage requires training just like work or martial arts. [11:14] Understanding attraction and speaking the right "currency" in marriage. [11:51] Loving your spouse the way they receive love. [12:11] Introducing the Roommates to Soulmates live course. [12:56] Creating confidence, attraction, and intimacy without neediness. [13:17] Why uncommon marriages require uncommon effort. [13:38] The reality that only 10–12% of marriages feel "on fire." [14:03] Rejecting the belief that passion naturally dies over time. [14:32] Marriage as a skill set that can be learned and mastered. [15:05] Course details, limited spots, and next steps. [15:25] Christmas message and encouragement to live legendary.     Five Key Takeaways: Roommate syndrome doesn't happen overnight—it's the result of neglecting connection, intimacy, and intentional effort.  Resentment grows when expectations go unspoken and needs are assumed instead of communicated.  Attraction in marriage is a learned skill, not something that automatically sustains itself over time.  Men must lead attraction with confidence, not needy or transactional energy.  Exceptional marriages are uncommon because they require uncommon effort, training, and intentional action.      Links & Resources: Roommates to Soulmates Course: https://thedadedge.com/soulmates 1st Phorm (Dad Edge Partner): https://1stphorm.com/dadedge Episode Show Notes & Resources: https://thedadedge.com/1418     Closing Remark   If this episode hit home and reminded you that marriage doesn't have to settle into mediocrity, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

Tired of watching student teams burn out mid-project? Or seeing the same student take charge while others fade into the background? In this episode, I share a simple but powerful strategy that reinvigorated our year-long student-run business: rotating roles. You'll hear how a single shift—letting students try on new responsibilities—rebalanced workloads, re-energized participation, and fostered deeper collaboration and skill growth. Through the story of our Montessori middle school café project, you'll hear how rotating a fatigued marketing manager into product development not only reignited his excitement, but sparked new momentum across the entire team. You'll learn: Why rotating roles prevents burnout, apathy, and imbalance in student teams 4 simple, flexible roles you can apply to any PBL experience How role rotation supports fairer assessment, stronger collaboration, and broader skill-building Quick examples for applying this in an urban garden, student podcast, or playground redesign Why this small shift keeps projects moving forward—without constant teacher intervention Whether you're guiding 6th graders through their first group inquiry or facilitating interdisciplinary projects with high schoolers, this episode will equip you with one of the easiest changes you can make… that delivers outsized results.

As early as 1989, intelligence officers in the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) recognized China as the next threat, says former DIA officer and physicist Michael Sekora.“We identified what [China] was doing to become a superpower faster than any country in history, and we were on track to containment,” Sekora says.Back in the 1980s, he led a classified Defense Intelligence Agency program called “Project Socrates” that was created under the Reagan administration to determine the cause of U.S. economic and military decline, find a way to reverse it, and outcompete Moscow. Later they turned their sights to Beijing.“It was very obvious what was going on: China was executing a national technology strategy, which basically was playing ... a very adroit game of worldwide offensive, defensive, technology exploitation chess,” Sekora says. “What we had in Socrates could have easily contained China.”The project was defunded by the Bush administration, and the United States went the opposite route, allowing many key technologies to be handed over to Beijing over the course of several decades.In this episode, he breaks down why he believes the United States has lost its edge in technological innovation and how this can be turned around.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Send us a textWhat if the end of everything is the beginning of anything? This keynote takes you from a risky leap into the spotlight, through the spiral of addiction and the false safety of perfectionism, to an honest, intuition-led recovery that rebuilt purpose from the inside out. I share how dropping out to chase performance dreams collided with numbing habits, how academic success couldn't protect a hurting heart, and why sobriety without self-forgiveness still leaves the soul starving.The turning point came when I expanded powerlessness beyond substances to people and outcomes. Working the twelve steps through a trauma-aware lens opened a door I didn't know existed: making amends to myself. That single act cut shame down to size and let intuition speak. From that voice came new moves—launching a practice that filled the gap between discharge and real healing, naming the quiet addictions of people-pleasing, hyperproductivity, and perfectionism as a form of soul sickness, and designing care that treats the body without abandoning the spirit.I also talk about losing my sister to overdose and choosing to recover out loud by writing a prescriptive memoir that modernizes the twelve steps for everyday life—traffic jams, hard conversations, career pivots, and profound grief. Creativity reentered the chat through a suburban dance class that led, unexpectedly, to choreographing and touring in Japan, and to a love of public speaking that now includes a corporate keynote on emotional ROI. If you're navigating addiction, heartbreak, or the quieter compulsions that steal joy, you'll find a practical, compassionate framework for change and a reminder that courage compounds when we act on our intuition.If this resonates, subscribe, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review so others can find the show.

As 2025 winds down, now's the perfect time to pause and ask yourself one powerful question: Why did I get into podiatry in the first place? In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I invite you to step back from the day-to-day and reconnect with the deeper why behind your work. Because when your podiatry business starts to feel heavy, uninspired, or off-track, it's rarely a patient problem, staffing issue or business problem; it's usually a purpose problem. Before You Launch Into 2026... If you rush into the new year without reconnecting to your purpose, you'll likely carry the same frustrations forward. This December, take 30 minutes to reflect. Don't just set goals; realign them with your why to make your goals more worthwhile.  Because when you do, work feels lighter. Marketing feels easier. Your team works better. And you start building a clinic and a life that actually energises you. No one wants a business coach; however, if you are looking, let's talk.   A business owner I spoke with in early 2024 made an extra $40,000 by following my advice from a 30-minute FREE Zoom call. They were so happy that they bought me a $400 bottle of bourbon. That's a win-win for both of us. Think about it - You have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

Click to Subscribe: https://bit.ly/Youtube-Subscribe-SoapDirt Young and the Restless spoilers give a treat as Noah Newman (Rory Gibson) makes a comeback. Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver), Noah's ex, appears to be shifting her focus back to him and may just start scheming to win him back. The sparks between them are hard to ignore, and their chemistry is the talk of the town on soap social media. Audra and Noah have had a tumultuous history, including a startling reveal that Audra had been pregnant with Noah's child and miscarried. There's long been speculation among the fans that Audra might have actually given birth to Noah's child, and he never knew. Y&R spoilers indicate Noah is currently experiencing a rocky phase in his relationship with Allie Nguyen (Kelsey Wang), leading to him cheating with Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun). This might just be the perfect opportunity for Audra to make her move. Noah's Newman status could be an additional incentive for Audra, who seeks revenge on Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) for past grievances. Audra's potential scheme might be the sweetest revenge on Victor and his granddaughter, Claire Grace Newman (Hayley Erin). Spoilers for Young and Restless suggest Sienna Bacall may not be a permanent fixture in Genoa City, as Tamara Braun is not on contract. Furthermore, her marriage to the notorious fentanyl dealer Mitch Bacall, AKA Matt Clark, could put Noah in danger and give Audra a legitimate cause for concern. The storyline seems geared to put Audra in a position where she might have to save Noah from himself, and possibly from a dangerous Sienna.  The Soap Dirt podcast has made the Top 100 List for Apple Podcasts in the Entertainment News Category.

When your life looks successful on the outside but feels hollow on the inside, it's time to come back to yourself. If you've spent years proving your worth through achievement, you may be feeling the quiet cost of high performance: exhaustion, disconnection, and the sense that something essential is missing. Today, I'm inviting you to pause the constant push and reconnect with the part of you that's been buried under productivity and performance. Together, we explore the truth that your worth has never lived in your output. When you slow down enough to actually feel your life, presence becomes a source of power instead of something you postpone. You'll learn how to soften the pressure, listen to your body, and make room for joy, rest, creativity, and desire so you can reclaim the spark you've been missing. If you've been afraid that slowing down will set you back, let this be your reminder: presence doesn't derail your purpose; it sharpens it. What we explore: High achievement burnout and the silent sacrifices that come with it Why striving disconnects you from your inner world The truth about rest, self-worth, and productivity How to listen to your body and honor what you feel Small daily practices to reconnect with yourself The fears that keep high achievers stuck The shift that brings you back to your spark   If you're ready to reconnect with what lights you up, join me for my free five-day challenge, Reignite Your Spark, at nancylevin.com/spark.   Connect with me: Newsletternancylevin.comInstagramFacebook  

I recently revisited one of my favorite metaphors from the classic film Parenthood, and it hit me hard again: Life is either a roller coaster or a merry-go-round. And far too many orthodontists—talented, capable, ambitious people—end up coasting in circles after hitting a certain level of success. I get it. It's comfortable. It's safe. But is it what you really want?In this episode, I break down the difference between choosing comfort vs. choosing growth—and why, in my own life and career, I've always chosen the ups and downs of the roller coaster. Yes, it comes with risk, fear, and the possibility of failure. But it also brings the kind of excitement, fulfillment, and impact that the merry-go-round could never offer. I'll challenge you to think deeply about which ride you're on—and what it would take to switch tracks.QUOTES"If you're going to end your career one day, make sure you rode the roller coaster." — Dr. Glenn Krieger"Complacency is just the merry-go-round in disguise." — Dr. Glenn KriegerKey TakeawaysIntro & Parenthood Metaphor (00:00)Why the roller coaster matters more than the merry-go-round (02:00)How complacency sneaks into ortho practices (03:00)The reality of failure—and why I welcome it (04:30)You can't build your dream life in circles (05:30)A call to action for choosing growth, risk, and transformation (06:00)Why Vanguard LA 2026 will be unlike any ortho event you've ever attended (06:45)Additional Resourcesf this message stirred something in you—if you've been playing it safe but secretly want more—then it's time to choose the roller coaster.

A clear explanation of the crisis of masculinity, why modern men feel lost, and how to reclaim strength, identity, and purpose using principles of emotional strength, male identity, and the warrior mindset. The Crisis You Can No Longer Ignore You've felt it, even if you haven't said it out loud. Something in today's world has men drifting—uncertain, disconnected, and quietly frustrated. You're not broken; you're living in a time where the traditional markers of masculinity have blurred, collapsed, or been mocked into confusion. What you're experiencing has a name: the crisis of masculinity. Let's cut the fluff: this isn't about politics. This isn't about blaming culture. This is about you—how you show up, how you lead, how you navigate your inner world, and how you reclaim the parts of yourself that modern life has sedated. So today, we're going to walk through what's happening, why it hits you so deeply, and what it actually takes to rebuild yourself from the inside out. The Three Core Drives You've Forgotten Every man carries three ancient impulses—three internal compasses that once gave direction, meaning, and grounded identity. But today, these drives have been hijacked, substituted, or numbed. A Battle to Fight You crave challenge—not endless stress, but meaningful struggle that sharpens your mind, strengthens your resolve, and reminds you of what you’re capable of. Without a battle, you drift. Without a direction, you weaken. And when you ignore this drive, life becomes a loop of avoidance instead of agency, leaving you stuck in patterns that quietly drain your confidence. An Adventure to Live You need experience, novelty, and the feeling of being alive in a world that tries to keep you comfortable, passive, and predictable. Not artificial dopamine. Not scrolling. Real movement. Real uncertainty. Real growth that forces you to expand who you are becoming. A Beauty to Pursue Not just women, but connection, intimacy, partnership, resonance, and the deep emotional nourishment that comes from healthy polarity. The feminine energy that sharpens your masculine edge and deepens your emotional strength, giving your life richness, meaning, and soulful direction. When you deny these three instincts, you don't become “peaceful”—you become restless, disconnected, and quietly resentful of a life that no longer feels like your own. The Four Lies That Hijack Modern Men Modern culture sells men replacements for the real work. And most guys take the bait. Lie 1: Sex Defines You Sex feels good, sure—but it can't ground you, mature you, or build your identity in any meaningful, sustainable, or internally driven way. When men use sex as validation, they lose themselves and drift further from genuine self-worth. Lie 2: Power Makes You a Man Power is a tool—not a foundation. Power without purpose collapses quickly and corrodes your inner stability. Ask any man who “made it” but still feels empty, disconnected, and unsure about who he really is. Lie 3: Money Creates Meaning Money expands life, but it doesn't define life or give you the inner direction you're starving for. If you chase money without meaning, you become wealthy in resources and bankrupt in identity, clarity, and emotional anchoring. Lie 4: Men Don't Feel This lie is killing men from the inside out. Emotional suppression leads to emotional implosion and long-term psychological collapse. Emotional strength isn't about denying emotions—it's about mastering them and directing their energy with intention. What's Actually Happening to You You're not simply “unmotivated.” You're not “lazy.” You're not “falling behind.” You're experiencing the crisis of masculinity because: You were never initiated into modern manhood, leaving you without guidance, structure, or meaningful masculine direction. Your natural masculine drives were never explained, only shamed and misunderstood, creating confusion about your inner motivations. You were taught to perform, not to align, forcing you into roles that never matched your authentic identity or purpose. You learned how to produce, not how to lead yourself with clarity, confidence, emotional strength, and grounded self-awareness. In other words… You were told how to act like a man, but no one showed you how to become one. A Metaphorical Wake-Up Call Imagine a warrior who forgets what his sword is for. He carries it every day, but never trains with it. Never sharpens it. Never uses it with intention. Slowly, he starts treating it like a burden—something heavy, inconvenient, unnecessary. That's what's happening to modern men. Your inner weapons—strength, purpose, courage, discipline, emotional clarity—have been sitting idle. Not because you're weak, but because the world taught you to dull them. It's time to sharpen them again. When you reclaim these inner weapons, you begin remembering who you are beneath the noise—steady, capable, powerful, and fully responsible for the life you're creating each day. Reclaiming Yourself Begins Here Let's step into the coaching room. Step 1: Identify What's Been Numbing You You can't reclaim your identity if you're still sedated by distraction. What's numbing you? Overwork? Porn? Dopamine loops? Netflix fatigue? Emotional avoidance? Before reclaiming your life, you must reclaim your attention, because your focus determines the strength of your identity and the direction of your masculine energy. Step 2: Rebuild Your Internal Framework You need a structure—your structure. Not society's expectations. Not your family's scripts. Your framework must include: Emotional strength Personal agency Male identity development Warrior mindset principles This is the difference between reacting and leading, and it gives you the internal architecture required to make choices from clarity instead of pressure or confusion. Step 3: Reignite the Three Drives Bring back: A battle worth fighting An adventure worth living A beauty worth pursuing When these are active, you stop drifting and start leading, because these instincts anchor your purpose, fuel your passion, and reconnect you to the deeper masculine current you've forgotten. Step 4: Define Your Values and Standards Masculinity isn't defined by external performance—it's defined by internal alignment. Ask yourself: What do I stand for? What do I refuse to tolerate? What is my personal code? Who do I become when life tests me? Your values shape your identity. Your identity shapes your destiny, and your destiny expands when your standards rise and your actions finally match the man you know you're meant to become. The Conscious Warrior Path This is the work—moving from confusion to clarity, from drift to direction, from collapse to power, and from the numbness of survival into the grounded fire of intentional living. You reclaim masculinity by reclaiming yourself, rediscovering the strength you abandoned, and stepping back into the authority you unconsciously gave away. Not by becoming louder. Not by adopting a persona. Not by playing a stereotype. But by aligning your mind, body, emotions, and purpose in a way that restores your inner integrity and reconnects you to the man you were always meant to be. That's the Conscious Warrior—a man who chooses truth over comfort, alignment over approval, and identity over imitation. The Four Archetypes That Restore Masculine Wholeness To fully resolve the crisis of masculinity, you need a framework that brings structure back into your identity. That framework is the Warrior–King–Lover–Magician system — four archetypes that create balance, power, and psychological strength. Here's how each one becomes part of your rebuilding process: The Warrior: Direction, Discipline, and Courage This is the part of you that takes action — the decisive force that stops drifting and starts choosing. The Warrior gives you: Boldness in the face of resistance, even when fear, pressure, or uncertainty try to shut you down and pull you off your path. The ability to protect your values and stand firm when others challenge your boundaries or question your direction. Discipline when your emotions want a shortcut, allowing you to stay consistent when motivation naturally fades away. Relentless forward movement that refuses stagnation and teaches you to generate momentum through intentional effort. Without the Warrior, you hesitate and collapse inward. With the Warrior, you execute with purpose and rise with strength. The King: Order, Purpose, and Identity The King is the archetype that organizes your life around meaning. It gives you: A grounded center that stabilizes your decisions and keeps you from being swayed by chaos or external expectations. A clear personal code that guides your behavior, choices, and relationships with unwavering integrity. Standards that elevate your behavior and reinforce the type of man you expect yourself to be daily. Purpose that shapes your decisions, aligns your actions, and creates a sense of direction that few men ever access. Without the King, men chase validation and live reactively. With the King, men build legacy and live intentionally. The Lover: Connection, Emotion, and Depth The Lover restores your humanity — the part of you that feels, senses, and connects. It brings: Emotional strength instead of emotional avoidance, helping you process your inner world with courage instead of shame. Passion for life, intimacy, and beauty that reignites your enthusiasm for being fully alive and present. The ability to bond deeply instead of numbing out, creating connection that enriches your life rather than drains it. Without the Lover, life becomes cold, mechanical, and numb. With the Lover, you feel alive, connected, and internally whole. The Magician: Insight, Strategy, and Inner Mastery The Magician represents wisdom — the internal guide that sees patterns, anticipates problems, and helps you evolve. It gives you: Self-awareness that allows you to understand your motives, wounds, beliefs, and hidden patterns with clarity. Mental clarity that cuts through confusion and shows you the truth behind your thoughts, behaviors, and decisions. The ability to transform pain into power, using your struggles as fuel for deeper growth and self-mastery. Skills to master your inner world so your emotions, impulses, and fears no longer sabotage your progress. Without the Magician, you repeat the same patterns unconsciously. With the Magician, you grow with precision, intention, and wisdom. Bringing the Archetypes Together When these four archetypes work together, you stop living in fragments. You become integrated, stable, and aligned — a man whose identity is no longer split, confused, or pulled in competing directions. The Warrior gives you action, forward motion, and the courage to engage fully with life's challenges instead of shrinking back. The King gives you purpose, authority, and the inner structure needed to build a life rooted in meaning rather than reaction. The Lover gives you heart, depth, emotional presence, and the ability to experience connection without losing yourself. The Magician gives you wisdom, insight, perspective, and the power to transform your inner world instead of repeating old patterns. This is the antidote to the crisis of masculinity — rebuilding yourself from the inside out using timeless masculine architecture that restores balance, strength, and psychological coherence. And this is the exact path of the Conscious Warrior — a path that integrates your instincts, your intellect, your emotions, and your purpose into one unified force. This is the work—moving from confusion to clarity, from drift to direction, from collapse to power. You reclaim masculinity by reclaiming yourself. Not by becoming louder. Not by adopting a persona. Not by playing a stereotype. But by aligning your mind, body, emotions, and purpose. That's the Conscious Warrior — a man who lives centered, grounded, and fully awake to his potential. FAQ: Understanding the Crisis of Masculinity What is the crisis of masculinity? The crisis of masculinity is the modern collapse of clear male identity, purpose, and initiation. It's the disconnection men feel when traditional roles fade without offering new frameworks. Many men are left without direction, clarity, or emotional grounding. This crisis shows up as depression, burnout, isolation, and confusion. While external pressures exist, the real solution is internal reconstruction—rebuilding your identity based on values, purpose, and emotional strength. Why do modern men feel lost? Most men feel lost because they've been raised without guidance in emotional strength, male identity development, and personal agency. Society tells men how not to act but rarely shows them how to develop genuine inner stability. This leads to overthinking, self-doubt, and a lack of direction. When you learn to lead yourself internally, you stop drifting. Is masculinity toxic by nature? No. Masculinity becomes toxic only when it's disconnected from purpose, values, and emotional grounding. Healthy masculinity protects, builds, leads, and lifts others. Toxic behaviors come from insecurity—not masculinity itself. When men cultivate emotional intelligence and identity work, masculinity becomes powerful, stable, and deeply constructive. How can I rebuild my sense of purpose? Start by removing numbing habits and reconnecting with your core drives: challenge, adventure, and connection. Then define your values, create a personal code, and build your life around alignment—not approval. Purpose is not found; it is forged. Small, consistent acts of discipline and clarity reconnect you to your inner direction. Why is emotional strength essential for modern men? Because suppressing emotions leads to emotional implosion. Emotional strength isn't about avoiding feelings; it's about directing them. When you regulate your emotional world, you regain control of your actions, choices, and identity. This is foundational for resolving the crisis of masculinity and stepping into warrior-level presence. What role does the warrior mindset play in masculinity? The warrior mindset emphasizes discipline, clarity, courage, and responsibility. It requires you to confront discomfort, build inner resilience, and pursue purpose over distraction. This mindset gives structure to your male identity and anchors you when life feels unsteady. It's not about aggression—it's about alignment. How do I begin the journey of becoming a Conscious Warrior? You start by telling the truth. Where are you drifting? Where have you lowered your standards? What are you avoiding? From there, you rebuild your internal framework, strengthen emotional resilience, and reconnect with your purpose. You learn to live by a personal code—and that changes everything.

Professor Steve H. Hanke, professor of applied economics at Johns Hopkins University and the founder and co-director of the Institute for Applied Economics, Global Health, and the Study of Business Enterprise, joins Julia La Roche on 311. This episode is brought to you by VanEck. Learn more about the VanEck Rare Earth and Strategic Metals ETF: http://vaneck.com/REMXJuliaIn this episode, Professor Hanke warns that the Fed's decision to end quantitative tightening in December, combined with bank deregulation unlocking $2.6 trillion in lending capacity, could trigger dangerous money supply acceleration and reignite asset bubbles and inflation. He criticizes the Fed for "flying blind" by rejecting the quantity theory of money in favor of a volatile "data-dependent" approach. On recession, Professor Hanke sits "on the fence"—labor weakness justifies rate cuts, but money supply acceleration could prevent any slowdown. He maintains gold will reach $6,000 in this secular bull market.Links: Twitter/X: https://x.com/steve_hankeMaking Money Work book: https://www.amazon.com/Making-Money-Work-Rewrite-Financial/dp/13942572600:00 - Intro and welcome back Professor Steve Hanke 1:20 - Big picture: money supply as fuel for the economy 3:30 - Fed ending quantitative tightening in December 6:00 - Yellow lights flashing: potential money supply acceleration, asset price inflation concerns and stock market bubble Fed 8:35 - Fed funds rate cut probability fluctuating wildly 9:36 - Quantity theory of money vs. data-dependent Fed 11:37 - Flying blind by ignoring money supply 21:30 - Making Money Work book discussion 26:15 - Gold consolidating around $4,000, why it's headed to $6,00029:24 - Recession probability: sitting on the fence 30:45 - Labor market weakness vs. money supply acceleration 32:12 - Why rate cut is justified based on labor market 33:13 - Closing

Why does success sometimes feel empty? And how do you reconnect with what truly lights you up?  If your life looks fine from the outside but no longer feels aligned on the inside, there is nothing wrong with you. There is simply a part of you asking to be heard. In this episode, I'm inviting you to reconnect with your desire—the quiet truth beneath the roles, responsibilities, and expectations that have shaped your days. So many of us have built lives that make sense on paper yet feel muted in our bodies. Others are still striving, waiting for the moment when everything finally clicks, only to find themselves asking the same question: Is this it? Wherever you find yourself, the root experience is the same. You've lost touch with what you truly want, and that disconnection affects every area of your life. Together, we explore what happens when desire goes quiet and what becomes available when you invite it back. Desire is not indulgent. It is not irresponsible. It is the source of inner alignment, clarity, and boundaries. And when you return to it—even gently, even slowly—you return to yourself.   What we explore: The quiet ache beneath achievement Why success feels empty without connection to desire The belief that you must earn the right to want more How ignoring desire leads to resentment, numbness, and burnout Why desire is a compass, not a luxury Real client stories of small desires that changed everything How reconnecting with desire restores clarity and energy A compassionate path back to what lights you up   If you're ready to reconnect with what makes you feel alive, I invite you to join my free five-day Reignite Your Spark challenge at nancylevin.com/spark. It's just 15 minutes a day, designed to bring you back to the truth of what you want.   Connect with me:Newsletternancylevin.comInstagramFacebook

PREVIEW Pacific Palisades Fire Controversy: State Orders Firefighters to Stand Down Jeff Bliss A fire in Pacific Palisades became a major disaster after a previously burned, smoldering area was allowed to reignite. Video evidence reportedly shows a state worker ordering the LA Fire Department to leave the scene and not extinguish the smoldering underbrush. The stated reason for the order was to protect endangered plants. This response, involving state regulations, is described as "unbelievable foolishness."

So many of us carry hidden shame around sex and our bodies, often without realizing where it comes from. It's not always the big, obvious traumas that hold us back.

You'll learn how to start releasing shame, feeling safe in your body again, and rebuilding a deeper connection to your pleasure. From understanding the mind-body link to using gentle practices like mirror work and affirmations, this conversation will help you reclaim your confidence, heal your relationship with sex, and step into your full sensual power.

From taking intentional breaks in structured training, to actually racing more (yes, really!), they dive into how variety, community, and even a bit of retail therapy can keep your motivation alive. Whether you're feeling drained or just want to stay ahead of burnout, this episode will help you reconnect with your “why” and get excited to jump back in when you're ready.

Have you ever caught yourself jumping from one exciting idea to the next before finishing the last one? That restless urge to chase every new possibility might feel productive, but it often leads to scattered focus and stalled growth. In this week's episode of the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch explores the psychology behind Shiny Object Syndrome and how understanding your motivational traits can help you stay on track, reignite your sales, and bring more money through the door. Nikki explains that our natural attraction to novelty is not a flaw but a motivational trait. Some people thrive on "new and different," constantly seeking stimulation through variety and big shifts, while others prefer "same and sameness," valuing stability and predictability. Both traits have strengths and weaknesses, especially in business. Entrepreneurs who love new ideas often jump to fresh projects too quickly, abandoning profitable ones before they reach their full potential. The key, Nikki shares, is learning how to feed your motivation without losing your focus. Through real-life examples from her own business and her clients, Nikki shows how small changes can keep things fresh without discarding what works. Maybe that means updating an existing course, relaunching a proven offer with a new twist, or reigniting excitement around services that already generate income. She emphasizes the importance of doubling down on what actually moves the needle because if 80 percent of your revenue comes from 20 percent of your offers, your energy should be focused where it counts. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why chasing every "next big thing" can quietly drain your sales and how to reignite passion and creativity without losing focus. Nikki reminds us that the goal isn't to suppress curiosity but to channel it strategically, using your unique motivational style to grow your business sustainably.

In this episode, I sit down with Cindee Williams, a 35-year entrepreneur turned Christian life and business coach, to talk about identity, purpose, and confidence rooted in Christ. We dive into how midlife women can rediscover who they are beyond motherhood and titles, uncover God's purpose for their next season, and walk boldly in faith. Cindee shares her "three confidence rules," practical ways to build trust in yourself and in God, and how small daily habits—like getting in the Word and moving your body—can transform your life.  Whether you're an empty nester or just navigating a new transition, this episode will help you align your faith, work, and life with God's purpose. __________________________________________________________ Ready for more?

I hope you're feeling more and more excited to get dressed with each HER Style Podcast episode you tune into. But even so or if you're in an early phase of your style journey, rest assured that we all have those days and moments when we look into our closets and feel completely and utterly uninspired.   Maybe just a few weeks ago you did a little shopping, added some new pieces, or even refreshed your whole wardrobe — but now you're right back where you started, reaching for the same easy combos, or just throwing on whatever's clean. If that sounds familiar, I want you to know you're not alone.   Even as a stylist, I have those mornings too. Some days I feel on fire about putting together my outfit, and other days (especially the ones that are meeting-free!), I'm tempted to stay in my pajamas. But I've also picked up a few tricks to make those mornings easier so getting dressed doesn't have to feel like a chore. You can reignite that spark and fall back in love with the process of putting your outfits together, even when your inspiration feels like it's gone missing.   That's what we're diving into today. We're going to talk about the hidden reason your wardrobe can feel uninspiring, the mindset shift that changes everything, the most common mistake I see that makes outfits feel "blah," and some quick tricks to spark fresh ideas — even when you're not feeling it. I'll also share how to stop relying on motivation and start building real momentum, what to do when you're tempted to reach for the easiest thing in your closet, why inspiration always comes in waves, and how to create your very own "inspiration toolkit" so you never feel stuck for too long.   So if you've been in a style slump lately, take a deep breath, because you're about to get your confidence and creativity back, my friend.

If you've been unintentionally slowing down your metabolism by eating the wrong foods, what can you do about it? In this episode, I'll show you how to use food as fuel to reignite your metabolism—especially during midlife. You'll learn why protein is your metabolism's best friend, how carbs and fats can either work for or against you, and how gut health shapes your body's ability to burn fat. With this episode, my goal is to help you move beyond counting calories and start eating in a way that truly powers your energy, your hormones, and your long-term vitality. What you'll learn: (01:51) Why protein is the foundation of a fast, strong metabolism—and why most women over 40 are under-eating it. (03:28) The science behind how protein preserves lean muscle and prevents metabolic slowdown during weight loss. (05:00) How to build your plate with protein first, followed by non-starchy vegetables, fiber-rich carbs, and healthy fats. (08:34) The dangers of ultra-processed foods. (10:04) How to time your meals for maximum energy and fat burning. (12:56) Why stopping food intake at least two hours before bed helps stabilize blood sugar and improve sleep quality. (14:31) The surprising connection between meal timing, appetite, and hunger control. (16:01) How your gut microbiome affects calorie absorption, cravings, and fat storage. Love the podcast?
