In today's episode, Gina discusses letting go of what-if questions, particularly in the context of other people's thoughts.  It is very important to remember that we are not capable of reading others minds, at least not in any concrete sort of way.  Relying on other people's speech rather than what we think their thoughts may be will help ground us and lead to more personal security and less anxiety.  Listen in for suggestions on how to do this today!

Quote: You probably wouldn't worry about what people think of you if you could know how seldom they do! –Olin Miller Chapters 0:26 Introduction to Fears 4:04 Overcoming Fears 6:50 Mind Reading Dangers 9:51 Importance of Self-Compassion 14:34 Embracing Self-Acceptance Summary In this episode, I delve into the pervasive issue of fearing other people's opinions and how it can impact our sense of self and well-being. I start by emphasizing the importance of acknowledging this fear and how it often manifests when we're feeling less confident. A poignant quote from Elsa Joy Bailey sets the tone: "Don't let other people's opinions burn holes in your dreams." This sentiment encapsulates the struggle of letting external judgments overshadow our true aspirations and desires. I explore the different ways this fear can be expressed, particularly through habits like closing down and suppressing our true selves. It's essential to recognize that our fears influence a myriad of our daily interactions and decisions. Often, this results in a cycle of people-pleasing behavior that doesn't serve us. As we move towards self-acceptance and valuing our own opinions, we may face pushback from those in our lives who are accustomed to our previous tendencies. I reassure listeners that it's perfectly valid to prioritize one's own voice over the expectations or preferences of others. I introduce three actionable strategies designed to help listeners stop fearing other people's opinions. The first method involves letting go of what I call "what if" questions, which can easily spiral into negative thinking. By consciously recognizing these queries—like “What if they don't like me?”—we can challenge ourselves to consider more positive alternatives and relinquish control over what is ultimately outside of our purview. #fearofopinions #anxiety #socialanxiety #selfacceptance #selfcompassion #mindreading #whatifquestions #criticalselftalk #personaldevelopment #mentalhealth #emotionalwellbeing #anxietycoach #overcomingfear #stopcaring #selflove #innerstrength #emotionalfreedom #personalgrowthjourney #mindfulness #wellbeing #mentalwellness #vulnerabilityisstrength #authenticity #liveyourtruth #ACP #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

There's been a lot of buzz—and confusion—about the new Keto-CTA study, examining plaque progression in Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs).Much of the social media debate has centered on whether high LDL on keto is safe or dangerous, driven largely by how to interpret the supplemental table comparing this study to others on LDL and plaque progression.In this episode of the Metabolic Mind Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Matthew Budoff, a world-renowned cardiologist, cardiac CT researcher, and the study's lead investigator, to discuss the the supplemental table, what the plaque markers mean, and how this fits into the discussion of high- vs -low-risk plaque progression.In this episode, we cover:✅ What PAV (Percent Atheroma Volume) is, what it actually measures, and why it matters✅ Why a 50% increase in plaque may sound scary, but can be deceiving✅ The difference between “treatment-naive” and “treated” participants✅ What the Miami Heart Study comparison reveals about keto, LDL, and plaque✅ Why LDL alone may not tell the whole story about heart disease risk✅ How some high-risk individuals may still benefit from statins and other therapiesThis study doesn't answer whether keto causes heart disease or not. Instead, it shows that high LDL on a ketogenic diet is not a reliable predictor of plaque progression across all individuals. What is predictive? The presence of existing plaque.

In this episode of Beer and Money, Ryan Burklo discusses essential aspects of retirement planning, focusing on cash flow, taxation, and the risks associated with relying solely on market returns. He emphasizes the importance of setting up a flexible balance sheet to ensure financial security in retirement, while also addressing legacy objectives and minimizing tax liabilities. Check out our website:  beerandmoney.net For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo Takeaways We care about the highest cash flow to live the life we want. We want to pay the lowest rate of tax on that cash flow. We never want to outlive or outrun our money. We want to hit legacy objectives for our family. We want to do these with minimal dependence on rate of return. Understanding tax distribution status is crucial for retirement planning. Relying solely on market returns can be risky. Setting up a flexible balance sheet is essential for financial security. Life insurance can provide both protection and cash value. It's important to consider how to turn on income streams in retirement.

Inflight icing may have been a factor in the recent fatal crash of a TBM 700. Relying on publicly available ADS-B data and video from a nearby home, Todd Curtis, John Goglia, and Greg Feith discuss icing and other issues that may have affected the pilot and the aircraft.The TBM 700, a single-engine turboprop aircraft, crashed outside of Minneapolis. The aircraft was expected to land at the Anoka County–Blaine Airport. The pilot, the sole occupant of the aircraft, had departed from Naples, Florida, earlier that day and spent about 36 minutes on the ground at Des Moines, Iowa, before heading to the Minneapolis area. The length of the flight day may have affected the pilot as well as the quality of the information the pilot had about weather conditions.The discussion analyzes the flight's ADS-B data from the last leg of the flight, which shows that the aircraft was in a controlled descent heading for the intended runway. The aircraft entered a shallow left turn before departing from controlled flight and entering a high-angle descent before crashing into a nearby home. The high pilot workload during this phase of flight, the low visibility, and possible pilot fatigue or other physical conditions may have led to the pilot losing awareness of his air speed. Greg compares this event to the 1994 icing-related crash of an ATR 72 in Indiana and the SilkAir crash in Indonesia in 1997.

This Podcast Is Episode 622, And It's About Identifying Gaps To Improve Your Construction Business Marketing Visibility is essential for your handyman or contracting business for several key reasons. Effective marketing helps your company stand out in a competitive market, and promoting your services can help you reach a wider audience and become known in your community.   Potential customers are more likely to hire someone they have heard about or seen advertised. This credibility is crucial for a service-based business like yours, where customers rely on reputation. Sharing content like the project "before and after," tips, and how-to guides can demonstrate your expertise and help you connect with your target audience.   Many construction businesses are vying for the same residents and homeowners, but active marketing helps you stay relevant, ensuring your company remains top-of-mind for potential clients.    Remember that adaptability is also essential when assessing gaps in your construction marketing. The marketplace is continually evolving, so adjust your strategies according to changing consumer needs, trends, or new services you may offer.   Don't have a whole marketing team? Invest your time and resources wisely. Consider the following areas first: ask yourself these questions, and start tracking and analyzing your results to see what's working and what isn't.    1. Am I identifying and understanding my target audience?  If your messaging doesn't resonate with your ideal clients, it might not be effective.   2. Is my website optimized for search engines, mobile-friendly, and up-to-date? A lack of an engaging online presence can significantly limit your reach.   3. Am I consistently creating and sharing valuable content that showcases my expertise?  Gaps in content marketing can lead to missed opportunities for engagement and brand building.   4. Am I actively engaging with my audience on social media platforms?  If you're not leveraging these channels effectively, you may be missing out on building relationships and community.   5. Are my methods for generating leads diversified?  Relying too heavily on one method can leave you vulnerable if that channel dries up.   6. Am I actively seeking and promoting customer testimonials?  A lack of social proof can hinder potential clients' trust in your services.   7. Am I attending industry events or networking with other professionals? This can be crucial for building connections and referrals.   8. Am I tracking my marketing efforts effectively?  Without analysis, it's challenging to determine what's working and what needs improvement.   By identifying and addressing these gaps, you can develop a more robust construction marketing strategy and build a better foundation of systems and processes that can drive better results. However, time constraints make it challenging to market your services, especially when you're a one-person company.    Many contractors are directly involved in on-site operations, leading to long hours and physical exhaustion. As a result, marketing tasks often get pushed aside. Also, not everyone has the skills to create effective strategies, understand digital tools, or navigate social media.    If you're still following along, the good news is that you've already taken the initiative. Answering the questions earlier is an excellent start. If you haven't done so, learn the marketing basics relevant to your construction business. Online courses and resources can provide valuable insights without requiring extensive time commitments.   First, establish specific, measurable marketing goals to help prioritize efforts. Having a clear focus can streamline decision-making and resource allocation.   Since you might need to invest in professional help in these key areas and high-impact tasks, check which ones you can do and the ones that you need to outsource:   1. Brand Development Establishing a strong brand identity is vital. You need a compelling logo, a brand messaging, and a consistent visual presence across all marketing materials.   2. Website Optimization Many solo construction business owners lack a professional, user-friendly website. Assistance in designing and optimizing a website for SEO can help your website attract more visitors and convert them into leads.   3. Social Media Strategy Navigating social media platforms can be overwhelming. You may need help defining your target audience, choosing the right platforms, and creating engaging content that resonates with your potential clients.   4. Content Marketing Creating informative blog posts, videos, and case studies that showcase expertise can be challenging. You may require support generating relevant content highlighting your projects and industry knowledge.   5. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Understanding how to rank higher in search engine results is crucial. Assistance with local SEO strategies to ensure you appear in searches within your service areas will do wonders for your marketing.   6. Lead Generation Finding effective ways to generate high-quality leads can be difficult. Look for guidance on using online advertising, networking events, and referrals to attract new clients.   7. Email Marketing Developing an email marketing strategy to stay in touch with past clients and nurture leads is often overlooked. Consider creating effective email campaigns that engage your audience and drive repeat business.   8. Reputation Management Building and maintaining a positive reputation is essential. You may need help managing online reviews, responding to feedback, and leveraging testimonials to build trust with potential clients.   9. Competitive Analysis Understanding the competitive landscape helps contractors like you with positioning. Analyzing competitors' marketing strategies to identify opportunities and threats will set you apart and drive your construction business forward.   10. Networking and Partnerships Collaborating with other industry professionals can lead to new opportunities. For mutual referrals, you may require support building relationships with suppliers, architects, or real estate agents.   What you can do right now? Start small. Implement small marketing initiatives that require minimal time and resources but can still deliver results—for example, posting a project update on social media or scheduling marketing activities in advance using a content calendar. This helps keep marketing efforts organized and ensures content is consistently shared.   Final thoughts   Addressing these gaps can enhance your visibility, attract new clients, and ultimately grow your business. Rather than spreading resources too thin, focus on marketing activities that yield the highest returns, such as building a strong online presence or generating referral networks.   Invest in professional help. If budget allows, consider hiring freelancers or marketing agencies to handle tasks like website design, SEO, or social media management.    We support contractors like you with Marketing, Accounting, and Production.

Are you a gut health dabbler? You're not alone. Many of us read books, listen to podcasts, and try the occasional supplement—but never fully commit to making real, lasting changes. But here's the truth: gut health isn't something you can afford to dabble in. It's the foundation of everything—your mood, energy, immunity, digestion, and even long-term disease prevention. In this episode of The Aging Project Podcast, Clinical Nutritionist Lynsey Koch joins Shelley Craft to help us stop dabbling for good. She breaks down why gut health is the missing piece in longevity, the biggest mistakes we're making, and how to build gut-friendly habits that actually work. Why We Ignore Gut Health (And Why That Needs to Change) We see our dentist for our teeth. We visit dermatologists for our skin. But when it comes to our gut—the control centre of our health—who's keeping us accountable? Many of us only start caring about gut health when something goes wrong. Lynsey explains why we need to shift our thinking and start treating gut health as a daily practice, not a last resort. How Your Gut Affects More Than Just Digestion Did you know that 90% of serotonin (your feel-good hormone) is made in the gut? Or that a diverse gut microbiome is linked to longer, healthier lives? Poor gut health is now connected to anxiety, depression, weight struggles, inflammation, and even autoimmune diseases. If you're feeling sluggish, bloated, moody, or dealing with skin issues—your gut could be the culprit. The Biggest Gut Health Mistakes (Are You Making These?) Many of us think we're taking care of our gut, but we're making key mistakes, including:

Episode Summary In this episode of the Canadian Immigration Podcast, Mark Holthe and co-host Alicia Backman-Beharry dive into one of the most critical yet confusing areas of Express Entry: what happens when your situation changes after receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA). Whether it's a job change, a new family member, or realizing you made an error in your profile, what you do next could mean the difference between permanent residency or a five-year ban for misrepresentation. They walk you through the consequences of making changes post-ITA, what types of changes are most common, and—most importantly—how to handle them properly using Letters of Explanation (LoEs). This episode is an essential listen for anyone who's received an ITA and wants to avoid costly mistakes that could derail their immigration journey.

Libelle was contracted to Compass, the Government supplier for the scheme that's been plagued with issues since its relaunch this term.

You're doing it all but could there be hidden mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness. Increasing protein, lifting weights, doing high intensity… How can you be this active but not working?  Disclaimer: This could trigger you. The mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness you could be doing on purpose because you were told once this is what you SHOULD DO.  This episode is for all women, and for you. So let's unpack these mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness.  Before anything.. Measure.  If you aren't measuring your body composition - skeletal muscle mass vs. body fat—you won't truly know what's working. I'll link to the 4 Smart scales in my store. You can get a Dexa or go to a gym. #1 Not Consuming Enough Fuel Women are not the same as men on carbohydrate needs. We get little, we disrupt hormones. You are influenced by cortisol, insulin, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone and the endocrine.   How much fuel do you need? Endocrine dysfunction - ~30-35 calories per kg of FFM in women; but around 15 calories per kg FFM in men. Fat Free Mass (FFM) - say you're 130kg and you have 25% body fat. You need 2923 kcals to keep your body functioning well.   Fueling Your Workouts: Cardio: 30g carbs and 15g protein before Strength: 15g protein before + 30-45g protein after (higher in and after menopause)    Thyroid & Carbohydrates Low carb diets (under 100g) - pivotal point for lower thyroid function.  Serotonin - produced in the gut, declines with low carb diets.  Low-carb diets - don't lead to better weight loss long-term, they cause water loss.   What Happens When You're Under-Fueled?Low Energy Availability from brain (hypothalamus) to body… Hypothalamus signals HPA axis dysfunction Adrenals releases cortisol Thyroid slows metabolism Body conserves energy and breaks down muscle instead of fat for fuel   When You Fast, try one of these: High intensity intervals  Lift heavy weights  High intensity boot camp class  Reduce carbs, maintain a keto-like diet while increasing your walks   Know the Sneaky Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness #2 Never REALLY Recovering From Hard Intervals or Hard Workouts  Some bootcamps and spin classes are rapid, high-intensity intervals without adequate recovery. Your cortisol levels during this session accumulate.  It feels like you crushed it, but here's the truth: if you're not giving yourself real recovery, you're not hitting your peak.  When you skip the full recovery, you're not building the strength and power that protect against sarcopenia (muscle loss). Try these: Warm-up A:  Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Slowly go back down Fully recover, with your nasal breathing. Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill Warm-up B: Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Quickly make your way down Cool down within 60 seconds Immediately run up again Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill They both will feel hard, but only one gets you to your maximum capacity.  The glycolytic fibers - fast twitch that sustain power fatigue quickly. Women have fewer of them than slow twitch and lose twice as fast as slow-twitch fibers. Fast-twitch fibers need power moves — like heavy lifting or box jumps — and plenty of recovery to reload and go again.  You're fooling yourself into thinking you're getting in better shape.  So test yourself… a simple protocol you can do at home. Try a full test battery you can easily do at home - I'll provide access to it in the show notes as soon as it's ready.  Measure. Monitor your waist girth, your body fat percent and your skeletal muscle. Rate your energy, sleep, focus, digestion and elimination. Are you improving, worse or the same? When you're exercising optimally these things also improve. It's not just muscle mass and fat.    Are these Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness?   #3 Relying on Caffeine, Bar Codes and Over Emphasis on Packaged Food By nature, your cortisol level is highest at about 8am. You've fasted overnight and if you're not eating soon after waking, especially if you're exercising as a female, your body has stressor on top of stressor: Punched your ticket in midlife (less estrogen, more cortisol) Caffeine (more cortisol)  No fuel (more cortisol)  Exercise (more cortisol)  Fuel before intense exercise.  Fuel again after, especially within the 24 hour period after resistance training or other HARD workouts the need for recovery persists, so it's not just that single meal following activity. #4 Always High and Hard You have never needed high intensity more in your life than whatever age over 40 you are now.  You also need full recovery … between intervals, strength training sets and sessions.  Here's the secret: Muscle gets stronger between sessions. The exercise is the stimulus. The recovery is where fitness happens – the release of hormones, the repair and supercompensation.  Recovery time. Get AT LEAST 48 to 72 hours between hard use of the same muscle groups. Active Recovery. The low intensity movement between your hard sessions is absolutely important in increasing circulation, blood sugar stabilization, improving sleep and mood and overall fitness levels.    Keep It Simple: Movement Time. Walking at the level below where cortisol negatively spikes so you can reduce or optimize it. Short & Intense. Spend small amounts of time in high intensity interval session - where you recover completely between sessions. All Major Muscle Groups. Spend 2-3 sessions a week hitting all major muscle groups or twice to total muscle fatigue. If you're in post menopause, the volume of sets has to be greater compared to a perimenopause woman. Recover. Give yourself at least 48 hours.. 72 is often BEST.  Resources: Flipping50 Membership Flipping50 Insiders Group   Other Podcasts You Might Like: Previous Episode - Is Red Light Therapy the Answer to Aches, Pains and More Movement?

Apple Podcasts |Spotify |TranscriptMore Resources: Free Minis Marketing Class| FB Ad Mini CourseIf you've ever felt frustrated posting your mini sessions over and over on social media and still not seeing bookings come through—you're not alone. This is one of the biggest pain points I see photographers face. Social media feels like it should be enough, right? You're doing all the things—posting daily, showing up in stories, maybe even creating reels. But somehow, your calendar still has open spots. The truth is, while social media can be a powerful tool, it is not a complete marketing strategy. Find out Why social media isn't enough to book out your Minis!Here's What We'll Cover:Why Social Media Isn't Enough (1:49)A Multi-Touch Strategy (5:00)Beyond Social Media (7:05)Resources Made for You (11:03)Why Social Media Isn't Enough to Book Out Your MinisLet's start with a harsh truth: you don't own your Instagram or Facebook account. At any moment, the algorithm can shift—or worse, the platform can go down entirely—and your audience reach disappears with it. Even when things are working, only about 4% of your followers are actually seeing what you post. So if you have 1,000 followers, that's only around 40–50 people seeing your content. And if your conversion rate is around 1–3% (which is normal), that's barely enough interest to book even a single session. Relying solely on social media means you're speaking to the same small circle over and over. To book out your minis, you need to get in front of new people... not just the followers who already know you.You Need a Multi-Touch Marketing StrategyMarketing isn't about showing up in one place and hoping for the best. It's about creating multiple touch points that guide someone from “interested” to “ready to book.” Experts say it takes at least 7 interactions before someone takes action, which means your audience needs to see your mini sessions a lot. Instead of focusing only on Instagram or Facebook, build a complete marketing plan that includes social media and email marketing, local outreach, SEO, and even paid ads. That way, you're increasing visibility, staying top-of-mind, and creating urgency through repetition.Go Beyond Social Media to Fill Your CalendarIf you're ready to get serious about your marketing, it's time to go beyond your social feed. Start by posting in local Facebook groups to reach moms in your area who aren't following you yet. Next, partner with local businesses (think boutiques, preschools, coffee shops, or pediatrician offices) for cross-promotions that benefit both of you. Make sure your SEO is on point, so that when someone Googles “family photographer in [your city],” your site actually shows up. And if you're up for it, try running Facebook and Instagram ads to target new families in your area. These tools, used together, help you reach way more...

Today, we're diving into a topic that challenges every believer at some point—how do we trust God when life breaks us? When pain and hardship shake the very ground beneath us, where do we turn? The world says, “Be strong,” but God says, “My grace is sufficient.”Our springboard for today's discussion is: 2 Corinthians 12:9—“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'”Paul knew suffering. He prayed for relief, but God didn't take away the thorn in his flesh. Instead, God offered something greater—His grace. When we're at our weakest, God's power is displayed in its fullness. It's not about mustering up strength; it's about surrendering to His.Pain has a way of stripping away our illusions of control. When we're broken, we either lean on God or collapse under the weight of our struggles. But here's the truth: God never intended for us to carry it all alone. His grace isn't just sufficient—it's abundant. It holds us when we can't hold ourselves.Maybe you're in a season where everything feels too heavy. The loss, the fear, the uncertainty—it's all too much. But what if that's the point? What if God is calling you to stop trying to stand on your own and instead rest in Him?Question of the Day: Where do you need to let go of your own strength and lean into God's grace?Let's Pray: Lord, in our weakness, show us Your strength. Help us to stop striving and start trusting, to surrender our pain and let Your grace sustain us. May we see that even in brokenness, You are enough.

AI and attribution are major disruptors in marketing, forcing businesses to rethink strategies. LinkedIn is an underutilized platform for organic reach and networking. Solo entrepreneurs should focus on one or two platforms instead of spreading themselves thin. Tracking simple, actionable metrics is crucial for adapting to market shifts.     Topics: Building a Strong Brand vs. Relying on Ads A brand is what people say about you when you're not in the room. Big budgets can amplify a message, but a great reputation and service will sustain a business. The shift toward organic engagement on platforms like LinkedIn. Marketing Challenges and AI Disruption AI is reshaping marketing, creating efficiency but reducing personal touch. Attribution is harder than ever, making it difficult to track what really drives conversions. Small businesses with strong brands are competing better against larger firms with big ad budgets. Optimizing Marketing for Small Businesses Focus on one or two platforms where your audience is most active. LinkedIn is ideal for professionals, investors, and B2B connections. SEO has changed—it's no longer as effective as it was two years ago. Use interns and growth communities to expand reach with limited budgets. How to Identify and Adapt to Market Disruptions Set up a simple scorecard to track engagement, website visits, and conversions. Stick with marketing strategies for at least three months before pivoting. Surround yourself with smart people who offer valuable insights without trying to sell you something.
