Podcasts about replacing

Last week, students, faculty, staff and alumni at the California College of the Arts learned that their school will be closing after the 2026-27 school year. Replacing it will be a new campus, run by Vanderbilt University. The arts community is now mourning the loss of Northern California's last nonprofit art school, which has served the region for 119 years.

What if the pressure you're putting on yourself to change your drinking is actually the very thing keeping you stuck?   In this episode, I answer a question from a listener named Deb who feels like she's on her last chance to get her drinking under control. She's caught in a familiar loop of replacing alcohol with snacking, and the frustration is palpable. But the real problem isn't the drink or the snack. So what is?     Tune in this week to learn why fear-based motivation bypasses the emotional skill-building you actually need to create change, how to break the cycle of replacing alcohol with food (and why it happens), and the counterintuitive truth about discomfort that changes everything.   Break the cycle of temporary challenges and learn how to make alcohol feel truly optional during my three-day Reset Your Drinking workshop starting January 21st, 2026.

I'm diving into why waiting until menopause to address hormones can be an incredibly costly mistake for so many women. Why are we told to "wait it out" when symptoms often start years earlier? And what's really happening inside our bodies long before our periods stop? I walk through the often-missed perimenopausal years and explain why this phase matters more than most of us realize. What if heavy periods, anxiety, weight gain, or insomnia aren't things you just have to tolerate? Could early hormone shifts be driving them? We also explore timing, myths, and fears around hormone replacement. How do you know when it's actually time to start paying attention? And what are the long-term consequences of ignoring these early warning signs for bones, brain, and heart health? In this episode, we uncover: Why waiting for menopause can ultimately worsen your long-term health outcomes. How perimenopause quietly begins years before your final period. What early hormone symptoms are often misdiagnosed or dismissed. How timing influences the benefits and safety of hormone support. Why listening to what your body is telling you matters more than arbitrary age rules.

Since 2020 there has been a sizeable reconfiguration of political lines, with new poles shaping up to replace left and right. Specifically, differing strains of a kind of conservative nationalism replacing the traditional right and liberalised globalism replacing the traditional left.We discuss those emerging configurations, the new American empire's tendency towards realism, Heidegger, and technology as the central question of modernity, as well as how concepts like ‘human rights' and ‘moral relativism' are out of date, with potentially even ‘democracy' soon for the chopping block.Plus, Gen Z's realist approach to transgendersism, the recognition of Somaliland, human rights law's failure around sanctions, Ed Miliband as future PM, monarchy, anti-sexist workshops for boys in school, and having to wait years for institutions to catch-up with discourse already evident via technology.

Are you a “jump and the net will appear” kind of person, {{ subscriber.first_name }}? Personally, I like to have some sort of net.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Incubator Podcast, Ben and Daphna review a pivotal population-based study from Norway examining a new approach to Early-Onset Sepsis (EOS). The hosts discuss whether serial physical examinations can safely replace routine antibiotic prophylaxis in at-risk term and late-preterm infants. With antibiotic exposure often far exceeding sepsis incidence, this study offers compelling data for a "less is more" strategy. Tune in as Ben and Daphna explore the safety, efficacy, and bedside implications of substituting automatic treatment with structured clinical monitoring—and what this means for reducing unnecessary interventions in the NICU.----Serial physical examination to reduce unnecessary antibiotic exposure in newborn infants: a population-based study.

In today's world of the mega pass like Epic and Ikon, small independent ski resorts are struggling to survive. But one of the oldest ski resorts in America – in one of the snowiest places on Earth – is thriving. Founded in 1939 by Hannes Schroll and funded by Walt Disney, Sugar Bowl Resort on Donner Summit has welcomed both families and hardcore skiers for generations, offering a friendly, laid back vibe and expert terrain. In Episode 78, we spin yarns with Sugar Bowl CEO, Bridget Legnavsky – a CEO who absolutely shreds on skis – discussing a recent $100 million investment, helping “The Bowl” stay competitive against Epic and Ikon resorts while honoring its blend of European and American traditions. We also chat about why Bridget thinks Sugar Bowl is one of the most unique resorts in the world, the differences between her home country of New Zealand and America, the future sustainability of skiing, why Lake Tahoe isn't more of an international ski destination, and if Summit Chair will spin more than 3 days this year. 2:30 – Recording from Sugar Bowl Resort.4:30 – Last episode, zero snow.

Show NotesBased on the article: Leaders Don't Fix People. Leaders Fix the EnvironmentIn this episode of the Emergency Management Network Podcast, we explore a simple idea that carries profound implications for leadership in emergency management and beyond: Leaders don't fix people. Leaders fix the environment.Inspired by the work and insights of L. David Marquet, this conversation challenges the instinct many leaders have to correct, manage, or “repair” individuals. Instead, we focus on how great leaders shape the conditions in which people can succeed. Culture, trust, clarity of mission, psychological safety, and decision authority matter far more than control or micromanagement.In emergency management, the environment we create determines how teams perform under stress. It influences whether people speak up, take initiative, admit uncertainty, and adapt when plans collide with reality. When leaders build environments that encourage ownership and responsibility, they unlock capacity that no amount of supervision can create.We discuss how fixing the environment means:* Designing systems that support good decision-making* Replacing permission with intent* Shifting from control to trust* Creating space for learning, accountability, and growth* Recognizing that leadership is less about authority and more about stewardshipThis episode connects leadership philosophy to real-world emergency management practice, from EOC operations to planning teams to organizational culture. If you want stronger performance, better morale, and more resilient teams, start by asking not “What's wrong with my people?” but “What kind of environment have I created?”Because when the environment is right, people don't need fixing. They thrive.TagsLeadership, Emergency Management Leadership, Organizational Culture, L David Marquet, Turn the Ship Around, Trust and Empowerment, EOC Leadership, High Reliability Organizations, Psychological Safety, Crisis Leadership, Team Performance, Professional Development, EMN Podcast This is a public episode.

What if the reason you're holding back isn't fear of failure—but guilt about leaving others behind? In this episode, I dig into one of the most surprising mindset blocks I've faced as a business owner: the belief that if I succeed too much, I'll lose the people I care about. This idea comes from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, a book I've read five times—and each time, it reveals something new. This time, it showed me how old loyalty patterns and hidden guilt were still shaping how I lead, grow, and show up. If you've ever felt conflicted about leveling up, this episode will help you see what's really going on—and what to do about it. What We Cover: Why Growth Feels Risky – The fear that success will cost you connection with friends, family, or your roots. The Loyalty Trap – How childhood beliefs about “not outshining” others can follow you into business. Replacing the Narrative – Why I used to believe I couldn't grow my business and have a strong relationship. Seeing the Pattern – How this hidden belief was still shaping my decisions in 2025. What I Believe Now – A better story that allows growth, love, and leadership to coexist. Success doesn't have to mean separation. You can grow—and still stay grounded. But only if you choose the right story.

OIN OUR FACEBOOK GROUP:   / 1bmudi9htk  In 2025, two forces are colliding fast: AI and blue-collar trades.In this episode, Chris Lee sits down with the team from Callsource to unpack what's actually happening when home service companies replace CSRs with AI voice/text bots — and why it can quietly destroy trust, create missed revenue, and damage your brand even when the phones are ringing.They break down real call data (including thousands of inbound calls handled by AI), the hidden “zero outcome” problem, incorrect dispositions inside the CRM, and why most owners don't realize the damage until conversion drops and the backlog tightens. Then they get practical: what a hybrid AI + human model looks like, how to build a manual process first (even if it starts in a spreadsheet), and how fast follow-up and human empathy can recover deals your competitors would've taken.If you run a plumbing, HVAC, electrical, or other home service business and you're considering AI for inbound calls, this is the episode you need before you flip that switch.CONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA!TEXT ME: 509-905-4109INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/chrisleeqb/...FACEBOOK:   / chrisleeqb  TIKTOK:   / uc6m5_nuhcx-jdtyb4ge8giq   Partner Spotlight: 1SEO Digital Agency: At Next Level Pros, we teach you the best ways HOW to market your business.

I did this one from the 66th floor Alle Lounge at Resorts World Las Vegas, with Shannon McCallum, VP of Hotel Operations, about how the property continues evolving four-plus years after opening. Resorts World operates more than 3,500 rooms across three brands --  Hilton, Conrad, and Crockfords -- all under one roof. That scale forces real decisions about technology, guest choice, and efficiency — especially when different guests expect very different experiences. Shannon walks through how the team thinks about:

Drawing from Marshall McLuhan's idea that “the medium is the message” and Neil Postman's view that technological change is ecological, he explains that smartphones have transformed every aspect of life—family, worship, and even prayer. Reflecting on his late son Anthony's words, Trimble shares a powerful lesson: after all the time spent on our devices, “nobody even wants my phone.” Mortality, he notes, brings clarity about what truly matters—God, relationships, and purpose.Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookDownload The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint Take the Christian Leader® Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment Learn more about Christian Leader® Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us a text

In this episode of Anchored by the Sword, I'm joined by author, podcaster, and content creator Erica Gwynn to talk about the lies we believe—often without even realizing it—and how those lies quietly shape the way we see ourselves, God, and our purpose.Erica's book, That's Just Not True: How to Replace the Lies You Didn't Know You Believed with God's Unchanging Truth, released in October, tackles 17 common lies that sound good on paper but don't actually line up with Scripture. Together, we unpack how striving, perfectionism, people-pleasing, comparison, and cultural phrases like “I can do anything” or “manifest your dream life” can slowly pull us out of true partnership with God.We talk honestly about: • Freedom as an ongoing process, not a finish line • Why limits are not failures, but part of God's design • How rejection by people can actually be redirection and protection from God • The danger of manifesting apart from surrender • What it looks like to dream with God instead of apart from HimErica also shares the Scripture that keeps her anchored in seasons of uncertainty and encourages listeners to give themselves grace—especially at the start of a new year.This conversation is for anyone who feels tired of striving, overwhelmed by comparison, or stuck believing things about themselves that God never said.Bio:Erica Ligenza Gwynn is an author, podcaster, coach, speaker, and content creator. She's the founder of Coming Up Roses, an online community rooted in the belief that while not everything in life is pretty, and every rose has its thorn, we can still honor our seasons and live in full bloom. Erica is building a wild and wonderful life in the Philadelphia area with her husband, Jamie, their two awesome kids, their cats Purrcy and Milo, and Lucy the Labradoodle.Anchor Verses:Connect with Erica:Website: https://ericagwynn.comBlog: https://cominguprosestheblog.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/ericaligenza/https://www.facebook.com/cominguprosesthebloghttps://ericagwynn.com/podcast***We love hearing from you!

In this conversation, Cheryl McColgan discusses the importance of replacing unhealthy habits with healthier alternatives rather than restricting them completely.

So today we’re going to work on doing something that is not restrictive, but yet just replacing. So for example, this is just again, all about practicing discipline. And so instead of cutting something out completely, we’re just gonna do a swap. So one of the easier, Examples I can think of for this is maybe you drink a sugary drink or soda every day. Instead, consider drinking a glass of water in place of that or replace it with something closer to a soda, which would be maybe a diet soda, sugar-free soda, something like that. So rather than just trying to ditch the habit completely, we’re going to do a replacement behavior. And the reason this works is that substitution is just a lot easier than restriction, right? So small swaps can really improve your diet quality without having to do any crazy, really restrictive things. Like for example, keto, as you know, that that’s what I’ve done very strictly in the past. Right now, just so you know, I would still say I’m low carb, but I have kind of changed the way that I have been eating over the last year because I’ve started strength training a lot more and I did a bodybuilding competition. And so my diet looked a little bit different than it has for the past seven years, but I’m definitely still low carb and go in and out of ketosis at times still, but much more carbs in my life. Right. So that’s the example is that when you do something like keto and you go all in at the beginning, you’re really doing a lot of restriction, but instead can you replace those? And that’s really what it looks like for a healthy diet, no matter what kind of style of eating you choose, whether it’s just eating more whole foods or eating less sugar, whatever it is for you, making those adjustments in a sense that you’re replacing something rather than restricting it is a lot easier. So in the idea of like the keto diet, one of the things like so for example, carbs, let’s say potatoes well. Cheryl McColgan (02:09.814)instead of just getting rid of potatoes altogether, maybe replace it with something else that’s lower carb like cauliflower. Cauliflower is the solution for everything, right? So it’s just a replacement thing. And it also just create better adherence because if you try to cut everything out at once, and that’s really, again, what this whole challenge is all about is that year after year when I’ve talked to people or worked with people on doing new habits or New Year’s resolutions or goals for the new year, people always tend to bite off more than they can chew because when it comes to the time of year, like if you happen to be doing this in January, I mean, I hope you pick it up anytime. Because like I said, it’s always for me, it’s like, okay, notice that you need some help with something and don’t wait till Monday, don’t wait till tomorrow, just start doing it now again. So you could start this challenge over any time that you need it. But really it’s… Cheryl McColgan (03:28.281)But really what it’s meant to do is get you thinking in the right direction and start trying little new things so that you can create bigger changes later if that’s your goal. Or maybe there’s something that you think you want to change in your life. So maybe you try this one little habit around that first and then you think, okay, well that’s really not the right way to approach it. Or maybe you don’t actually need to change that thing at all. Maybe you just need to replace some behavior. So anyway, I hope that gives you some sense of why we’re doing it this way. But also in this particular one, like the restriction versus replacement, it’s just an easier behavior change. Because if you’re still going to have, here’s another example, if you need to cut down your coffee, right, or cut down your caffeine, instead of cutting out coffee completely, maybe you switch to decaf or maybe you switch to half-caf. You still get the taste, you still have the behavior, you still have the enjoyment of it, but without the thing that you’re trying to negatively impact. So hopefully that makes sense. Just doing these behaviors that replace things rather than restricting them is a lot easier. It can also just make you if you if you’re working on diet in particular, I mentioned adherence like diet is probably the place where it really impacts the most. Because again, like cutting out those things that you love is eventually going to cause a rebound effect process possibly whereas if you put in something similar but healthier, it just makes that behavior easier to repeat over time. And then you might find as you practice behavior longer and longer, it becomes more of a habit. Then maybe you cut down or cut back or cut out certain things because there are definitely certain things. And again, diets probably the best example, but there’s, there’s definitely things in your diet that just aren’t healthy and you’d be better off if you cut them out completely. And you probably say the same things about some lifestyle behaviors as well. So I think I may or may not have mentioned earlier in the challenge that You know, another thing that people like to look at this time of year tends to be behaviors around alcohol. And I, in the past, had interviewed Ian, who’s the founder of Sunnyside, and he had reached out to me because they’re doing something this month. So their app is available year round. And it’s actually a really cool app because it’s kind of on the same vein. It’s not totally taking the behavior away or it’s not restricting. It’s just asking you to be more mindful and track things. And as you track things and become more mindful, Cheryl McColgan (05:54.37)sometimes your behavior changes automatically. And so around alcohol, they’re not saying don’t drink at all, but they’re just saying be more mindful and maybe eventually do replacements, do mocktails, do different kinds of beverages, or eventually start cutting back. But it’s the tracking and the mindfulness about it and that substitution behavior that makes it really useful. So anyway, I’ll make sure that is in the show notes as well because they are actually offering a totally free. January program that you don’t even have to put your credit card in for. But anyway, the app is really awesome. And if that’s one of your behaviors that you’d like to do this substitution with, I would definitely recommend trying that app at some point. So hopefully this makes sense. That’s a pretty simple habit to try for a day. Just swap one thing. We’re just replacing or changing slightly. We’re not restricting. But just, again, that practice of being mindful around this and noticing what it is you might need to change, I think will be super helpful. So. That is it for today. I will see you again tomorrow.

In corporate finance, we often focus on balance sheets, cash flow, and NPV. However, there is an "invisible factor" that dictates whether those numbers hold up: Corporate Culture. While it doesn't have a line item, culture acts as either a precision tool for financial discipline or a toxic liability that destroys enterprise value.In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained, hear how to move culture from the HR office to finance, exploring how trust, psychological safety, and accountability translate into hard dollars and cents.The 4 Financial Levers of CultureA strong culture isn't just about "feeling good" it's a performance multiplier that impacts the bottom line through four direct channels:Productivity & Execution: High-trust cultures move with incredible velocity. By cutting through bureaucratic "sign-off" layers and blame-avoidance, high-trust teams can reduce decision cycle times by up to 40%, accelerating time-to-market.Decision-Making Quality: Healthy cultures encourage "robust debate." When employees feel safe to voice concerns (Psychological Safety), leadership avoids the catastrophic blind spots that lead to failed mergers or flawed product launches.Cost of Human Capital: Employee turnover is a massive recurring expense. Replacing an employee can cost 50% to 150% of their salary, but the hidden costs—lost institutional knowledge and training dips—are even higher.Risk Management & Compliance: Fear-based cultures suppress bad news. A culture that encourages surfacing risks early lowers the company's risk profile, directly reducing the Cost of Capital (the interest rates you pay) demanded by lenders.Culture in Strategy: Accuracy, Discipline, and InnovationCulture fundamentally changes how a company executes its financial planning and growth:Forecast Accuracy: Transparent cultures provide cleaner, earlier data. Surfacing a risk is rewarded, leading to fewer "end-of-quarter" surprises.Cost Discipline: Cultures of high accountability drive Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB), moving away from "entitlement spending."Innovation: Real innovation requires the safety to fail. If failure is punished, employees only pursue safe, incremental ideas, stifling disruptive growth.Resilience: During market shocks, trust enables rapid cost-cutting and resource reallocation that low-trust competitors cannot match.Case Studies: Triumphs and TragediesNetflix (Success): Their "Freedom & Responsibility" model enabled massive capital shifts from DVDs to streaming via extreme strategic agility.Google (Success): Psychological safety powers an R&D engine that prunes failing projects early, saving billions in "sunk costs."WeWork (Failure): A culture of unchecked exuberance ignored financial controls, erasing tens of billions in paper value.Theranos (Failure): Suppression of dissent led to massive misstatements and total corporate obliteration.The Finance Professional's Cultural DashboardFinance teams should track cultural health using these granular data indicators:Turnover by Function: High churn in Internal Audit or Compliance is a massive red flag. Forecasting Behavior: Are teams "padding" budgets to create easy beats? This is a symptom of low trust. Project Delivery Metrics: Consistent delays in cross-functional handoffs often signal a collaboration problem, not a funding one. Ethical Indicators: Spikes in whistleblower reports or audit findings are leading indicators of catastrophic financial risk.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Kiren Sekar, Chief Product Officer at Samsara, to unpack how AI is finally showing up where it matters most, in the frontline operations that keep the global economy moving. From logistics and construction to manufacturing and field services, these industries represent a huge share of global GDP, yet for years they have been left behind by modern software. Kiren explains why that gap existed, and why the timing is finally right to close it. We talk about Samsara's full-stack approach that blends hardware, software, and AI to turn trillions of real-world data points into decisions people can actually act on. Kiren shares how customers are using this intelligence to prevent accidents, cut fuel waste, digitize paper-based workflows, and scale expert judgment across thousands of vehicles and job sites. The conversation goes deep into real examples, including how large enterprises like Home Depot have dramatically reduced accident rates and improved asset utilization by making safety and efficiency part of everyday operations rather than afterthoughts. A big part of our discussion focuses on trust. When AI enters physical operations, concerns around monitoring and surveillance surface quickly. Kiren walks through how adoption succeeds only when technology is introduced with care, transparency, and a clear focus on protecting workers. From proving driver innocence during incidents to rewarding positive behavior and using AI as a virtual safety coach, we explore why change management matters just as much as the technology itself. We also look at the limits of automation and why human judgment still plays a central role. Kiren explains how Samsara's AI acts as a force multiplier for experienced frontline experts, capturing their hard-won knowledge and scaling it across an entire workforce rather than trying to replace it. As AI moves from pilots into daily decision-making at scale, this episode offers a grounded view of what responsible, high-impact deployment actually looks like. As AI continues to reshape frontline work, making jobs safer, easier, and more engaging, how should product leaders balance innovation with responsibility when their systems start influencing real-world safety and productivity every single day?

The start of a new year often comes with pressure to overhaul everything at once—but health and wellness habits do not work that way. In the final episode of the Habits Series, Lesley Logan breaks down how to choose habits that truly support your future self instead of chasing trends, rules, or social media “shoulds.” She explains why wellness habits must be personal, adaptable, and rooted in how you want to feel—not how you think you should look. This conversation invites you to slow down, remove judgment, and build health habits that actually serve you for the long haul.If you have any questions about this episode or want to get some of the resources we mentioned, head over to LesleyLogan.co/podcast https://lesleylogan.co/podcast/.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:49  Hi, Be It babe. Welcome back to our bonus episodes on habits. We had some requests on habits, topics around travel habits and traveling, and then also health and wellness habits. And so if you haven't yet listened to all the top tips on how to create habits that actually stick, go listen to episodes one through six. We're actually giving you strategies, and also Amy Ledin and our recap episode, because we talk about the healthy the way that she creates habits too. It's important because you're going to hear sometimes you hear things the same thing I'm saying from someone else, for it to stick, because we all have different words that activate something in us, right? So you don't have to listen to that stuff to actually get them out of this episode. But it does help if we're on the same page of like, how habits are created, it can help that being said, all right, health and wellness habits. And if you have a topic that you're wanting me to do a habits talk on there's a help you need with that. Then send it in to beitpod.com/questions we can add another bonus episode, or I can answer it on a recap episode. You also can send in your wins on how the habits are going that you've been creating. And I am a I I'm kind of obsessed with habits, because habits have created the schedule that allows me to become the person that I'm so desiring to be in every single day. I get closer and closer to being that girl, and I have, that woman, and I have so much more clarity around the leader that I want to be for this business. And that helps me go, okay, well, hold on, what about her? What does she have that I'm not doing yet? And then that helps me create different habits in my day and let go of habits in my day that are no longer serving me, because, you know, guess what? We're all getting older. Can promise you that it doesn't mean we're getting old. I don't even think 100 year old is old, you know, but like, we are getting older. And so as we get older, there's things that we need more of and things that we can use less of, right? Lesley Logan 2:38  And when it comes to the topic of health and wellness, I think there's, I'm not going to go through an exhaustive list, because there'll be things that you think are part of health and wellness that I might not have thought about. But also what I want to make sure of is that, like I'm trying to be cognizant of not saying what a healthy habit is, because there's no such thing. There's just habits that serve you and habits that don't serve you and something that someone might deem as unhealthy habit might actually serve you. And so so it's really important that we like are clear on that, and we're honest about that, and we get some we articulate it for ourselves in a way that doesn't allow judgment and shame, because where judgment and shame are, I promise you know habit that you want to create is there, and I also know that you're not listening to this podcast hoping that you become someone who just judges and shames all the time, like that's not going to be fun, right? Lesley Logan 3:27  Okay, so health and wellness habits are going to be things that have to do with sleep. They're gonna have to be there and be things that have to do with water and fuel intake. They're gonna be things that fall under movement practices, and they'll be things that can even go under skin care, right? Things like that. I am a 42-year-old woman who's turning 43 probably around the series is releasing so there are, there are habits that I have incorporated in the health and wellness category of my life based on perimenopause and how it affects me. And after perimenopause, I will have to review, and maybe even as it goes closer to menopause, review the habits that I have and things that we do and and in the health and wellness category, and not just because of how I want to look, but more importantly, because of how I want to feel. And so before you get into too many details about health and wellness habits, on this topic today, this episode, I do want you to take a moment you can pause if you're thinking of a future you that you're trying to be, what health and wellness habits does she have or he have, or they have? Right? What does a day, a morning, an afternoon, evening, look like for that person, not based on what you think you can do, but what you wish you were doing. What would make you feel good? What makes that person feel good, right? So when you have that, then you can run one of the things that you're like, oh, I'm not doing that, and I want to do that. Okay, then go back through our habits series. And take the proper steps to add that in. But I'll just share, like, when you hit perimenopause and every single thing in your algorithm is telling you all the different things you have to do, and holy moly, will fucking make you crazy. It's like women should be doing creatine. Actually, they should be doing two times the creatine. Oh, the there's people who say Pilates can't do anything for you, but it's good if you do it, but you just have to make sure you're lifting weights. Like, like lifting weights is gonna be too much you can't grow strength from lifting weights, but you have to lift weights. And it's like you, feels like you're a crazy person, right? So first of all, when it comes to health and wellness habits, you have to think about the version of you you're going to become, and how, what do they have? How do you want to and if you don't know what those habits are, because some of us don't know what we don't know. Then, how do you want to feel? How do you want to feel? I can tell you right now, like, I do not want to be 60 years old with the stomach issues that I have when I was a 30. I don't want to be 60 years old with shoulder aches and pains. I don't want to be 60 years old going, oh my God I wonder what it's like to be 40. No, I want to be 60 years old with all the wisdom of being 60 years old, and have the energy to like rock my world, so I can enjoy 80 and then 100 right? So doing the research around like, what I need to be making sure I'm paying attention to now my 40s, because there's, you know, we have the benefit of so many people being in front of us and them saying, okay, if you have done this in your 40s, like, like, all these different things. So when I was adding creatine into my routines, and creatine works for me, and something that does work really well for me, I had to think, okay, well, when am I adding this into my already busy day? So many things I have to do, you know, and some people like you do creatine right after you work out, not necessarily, not if you work out late at night, you don't want to be doing creatine. It'll fuck your sleep up. Okay, so, so when do I need to be doing it? What? What? Where? What is it best to mix with and going back through our habits, stuff that we talked about, the other episodes we have to explore, test, be curious and celebrate what we did, too, until we find a time where we can we have figured out that the best prompt for that habit to happen when it's supposed to happen is there. We've figured it out. So for me, took a while. I was like, oh, maybe I should do the creatine before I work out. So it should be in my afternoon shake. Well, what if I don't have an afternoon shake? Because I actually don't have an afternoon shake every single day. I'm supposed to do double dose of creatine because it will help prevent Alzheimer's. And my goodness, that is something I don't want to have. So for me, I had to explore. Okay, I actually really like it in my morning cup of coffee, I'm gonna do double the dose. So after I put my collagen in, after I put my fiber in, I put my creatine in, and then I celebrate that I did it. And that cup of coffee also helps me celebrate, because it gets that dopamine kick anyways, it's like you're awake. So it really does help. Lesley Logan 7:50  So your health and wellness habits, first, you have to figure out how you want to feel in the future and evaluate based on like what you're doing now, and then start to add it in, one at a time. One at a time I love because it's so easy to go, okay, all right, so I'm finally, this is the day I'm gonna get it together. I'm gonna go for a morning walk, I'm gonna go for an afternoon swim, and then I'm going to do my red lights before, I go to bed, holy moly, that will like, you'll have one or two good days, and then you'll be so sore, and you're gonna fall asleep before that red light gets on, and then you're gonna shame yourself. It's not how it works. Health and wellness habits, especially ones that actually could make your body sore, take you gotta take your time adding those in so that you don't have a day that would actually harm your body to continue on with it. Okay, I'll say that again. You got to take them slow so that you can ease into it, so your body's always feeling good, especially at the beginning. We're trying to create the habit, so you don't have a day where your body feels like shit because of the habit you're trying to create, right? I don't want anyone having a hard time sitting down on a toilet. You know what I mean? Like after about like after a day where you did a leg day and then you can't sit on the toilet. You're not going to have excitement to go to the gym and do arms. It's not going to happen. The other thing about health and wellness habits is that you really do, I think you're know this is going, you really want to evaluate what works for you as between you and your doctor, that is between you and your family, like what what works for you? Because, yeah, they could be people saying you should be doing these, like intermittent fasting. I'm gonna tell you, I tried that. You probably have even heard me on episodes that I tried that, and I did, and I felt good for a little bit, and then I didn't feel good anymore, because skipping breakfast was causing me to not have enough time to get the protein that my body needed, to get the fuel in that my body needed, and so for me, that didn't work. So I'm glad there's tests out there that say it's amazing, and I know it's amazing for people, but it wasn't amazing for me at this place in my life right now that could change in five years. And so that leads us to when it comes to health and wellness, right there is what everyone says we should be doing. And then there's, well, what, how did it make us feel? And does that align with how we want to feel? If it's not, then it doesn't. We have to figure out another way to get that, right? So yes, I have to eat the veggies. I don't like the veggies, but the woman I want to become, well, she probably had some veggies, so I got to find the veggies that's going to work for me, and if I struggle to digest them, or I'm allergic to them, I'm sensitive to them, there has to be another way to get that nutrition in, right? You're seeing that? So we're not going to should on ourselves all the way to health and wellness habits, because it's not going to make you feel good, it's gonna make you shame and judge yourself, and then the habits don't stick. Lesley Logan 10:44  The other thing about health and wellness habits that I just want to, like chat with you about is like, especially in Western society, especially for women over 40 high we grew up on get thinner and thinner and be the thinner and thinner and just thinner, and pluck the brows and be thinner and thinner. And I'm gonna tell you right now, thin doesn't equal healthy. Period. It's just very important that when we come we talk about health and wellness habits that you are understanding and clear based on your hormones and blood tests and other tests in your body, about like, where, what, what is really going on in your body before you make changes to caloric consumption and and that you're, you're you're thinking about these health and wellness habits in a way that actually feels you. So your health and wellness habits should fuel you. They should also hydrate you. They should also make sure that sleep is easy. If you're struggling with sleep, we have to look at the health and wellness habits through the lens that's going to help you sleep. Once we got your sleep down, then we can look at the health and wellness habits and help with the stomach issues you've got. Why did I say sleep first? Because your sleep is part of the healing your body. And if you're not sleeping, you're not producing stomach acid, if you're not producing stomach acid, you're not gonna absorb you're not gonna break down food. You're not gonna absorb food. Okay? So you can obviously, you're welcome to focus on your stomach first, but if it's stressing you out and fucking up your sleep, I recommend you sleep. So your health and wellness habits have to be making sure they're fueling you, hydrating you, and giving you time to recover. If listening to this, you are discovering that, wow, I've had these habits that are no longer serving me. So for example, I used to run every single day, every single day, and I do, like sometimes miss that routine that I have. I live in a place where, like, as I record this, I could run in the morning every single day, but come April, not it's just not how I want to feel. I don't want to feel that hot. I'm already that hot just walking, you know, so, so for me, it changed, like how often I could run. And I will also say that running every day is not serving the other parts of the be it till I see it that I want to have, they're not it's not helping me with the strength that I'm wanting to have, and it's not helping me with the Pilates practice I want to have. So now I run two days a week, and I love it. It's great. I had to unravel the other habit. I had to replace it with something else that I could do, that could fill me up. And it did take time. It took me a long time to figure out, well, what should I do in the morning? You know, should I tried rebounding? And I tried, I tried a few things until I settled in on what I do now.Lesley Logan 13:25  But there is an episode in this series on how to unravel a habit you no longer need, that no longer serves you. And so part of that is figuring out, like, what prompts that habit, okay? Other part is figuring out what's gonna replace that habit, otherwise it becomes a vacuum. So if you are thinking, oh my gosh, as I listen to this, she's telling me, I have to let go of my nightly wine. Actually, that's not up to me. It's really up to you. If it's serving you, if it's bringing down your cortisol and allowing to be present in the family's lives, you have allowed you to connect with them, and your health and your doctor, and all the things you're doing are looking good. Please don't put judgments on yourself, of which there are not right, because what I would hate is for you to take away something that is allowing you to connect with people in this world, and then you take that away, and then you're not doing the connection part that you want. I know someone who's struggles with sleep, and so they are using weed to help them sleep. Well, of course, doctors could say, well, that's a terrible sleep, but she's actually sleeping, right? So now, is that a long term habit we want her to have? Probably not. Is it a long term fix? Absolutely not. If it's helping her get some sleep, until she can start a sleep routine that helps her wind down, get her cortisol levels down, get these other things down, and then she can come off. She can do less a little half of dose, and then a quarter dose, and then, like all that stuff, and then whatever she was doing at night that prompted her to take it that would have to unravel. So instead of just going cold turkey, no, we're not going to do that. Gotta unravel it. And we also have to make sure that we're not letting anyone tell us what's a healthy habit or a health and wellness habit. Because you you have to remember who you're trying to be it till you see and you have to remember how things are serving you, and if you're like, definitely doesn't serve me to drink that wine, because I just shame and judge myself every single night. Okay, great. Let's let it go. But what's the prompt what do we fill it with and are those shame and judgment thoughts in the year and a half, even if you replace it and said I'm just not gonna buy it, I'm just not gonna buy it. I'm gonna sit there and watch Netflix, are you gonna shame and judge yourself about Netflix? So it's really important to me that we get really honest and clear about what we consider a health and wellness habit. We're not using the media, especially social media, to tell us what we need to do. We have an amazing episode with Rachel Varga. We did two episodes with her. So her second episode is all about these tools, these beauty tricks and tools that people say we got to do, you got to do this thing. And I really love that episode because one of the things she said that'd be really helpful for for me, for sleep, was an Epsom salt scrub. Like everyone says, Epsom salt bath, it helps you sleep. I did Epsom salt scrub because of her I do it multiple times a week, and I have the best sleep, right? And so. But it took someone to tell me. It took me exploring. Took me going, okay, the media saying, this is that the best way to do it? Is that going to serve me? And then going through the episodes we talk about, okay, how, what are all the different ways that I could do I could make creatine happen in my day. Okay, what are the easiest ways and the ways I want to try? Okay and then what do I already do in the day that I could add this to without having to start a whole other thing that I have to drink each day? Okay, great. Let's try it. Let's celebrate. Oh, that kept me up at night. Okay, different drink. Okay. How'd that feel? Oh, I have a best day ever. Okay, great. Celebrate. Celebrate. Celebrate. Keep going. Keep going. Evaluate, correct, continue. As long as it works for you, as long as it's serving you. It's a great health and wellness habit, and there are so many. But the important thing is that it's you have to go to the finish line. Where are you trying to go? Who are you trying to become? What are the health and wellness habits that will help you get there? If you are someone who is getting great sleep every night, then we have to look at the health and wellness habits that will help with great sleep, and then we have to evaluate what would serve you best, not just because what the media and studies say, and then we have to add it in to a day that you already have something you're doing, and then we just celebrate that we did it. We'd make it smaller and smaller and smaller until it's easy to do. And then when it's easy to do, it'll be easier to expand on the time. And if you're like, what is she talking about? Then you got to go listen to the other episodes on the series of habits. Lesley Logan 18:02  So if there's a topic that you want us to dive into, if there are habits that you're trying to figure out how to make smaller, if there are habits that you're struggling to add in or unravel, want to hear about them. Send it to the beitpod.com/questions or send in the wins that you're having when it comes to habits that stick and what resonated with you. I want to share that in the FYF episode so you can hear yourself get that shout out and go oh my God, look at the thing that I did. Remind yourself that you did it. And if you're loving these series on topics, on different topics, and how to do them, then I would love to know what other topics you're wanting so we can make sure to include it in the lineup.

As temperatures fluctuate across metro Atlanta, homeowners may notice more pest activity as rodents and insects seek warmth and shelter. Neil Bloyd, director of learning and technical services with Northwest Exterminating, joins host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss how homeowners can proactively prepare their homes for winter pests while planning ahead for spring insect activity. Winter Pest Prevention Starts With Exclusion Rodents are the primary concern during late fall and winter, as mice can squeeze through openings “as small as a dime” and rats through openings “the size of a quarter.” Bloyd encourages homeowners to seal entry points and inspect attics—particularly when retrieving holiday decorations—for signs of droppings. “A lot of pests are attracted to lighting,” Bloyd said. “Keeping the garage door open—those kinds of things are oftentimes overlooked, but they can lead to pest issues.” What winter pests should homeowners look for in the fall? Smoky brown cockroaches tend to surge in the fall and persist through winter, while Joro spiders are strictly outdoor spiders and unlikely to enter homes. While their long-term ecological impact is still being studied, Bloyd notes that Joro spiders can be beneficial predators, particularly of brown marmorated stink bugs, which are harmful to agriculture. Getting Ahead of Spring Insects Looking ahead to spring, managing moisture is one of the most effective preventive strategies. “Replacing old pine straw or mulch is advised, as well as not piling it too high,” Bloyd said. “If you can keep a six-inch gap between the pine straw mulch and the foundation that allows that area to dry out, which makes it less inviting for those pests.” Vegetation management is also critical. Tree limbs and shrubs touching the home act as “easy highways” for ants and other insects to enter the structure. Timing Matters for Sealing and Treatments Homeowners should carefully consider when to seal entry points. Sealing too early can trap overwintering pests—such as ladybugs, stink bugs and box elder bugs—inside wall voids, leading to odors and secondary infestations “I would advise doing that in late spring or even summertime,” Bloyd said, “when they've already vacated but before they return for winter.” Mosquito prevention should begin in February or March to reduce populations before peak season. By summer, populations are often already established, making control much more difficult. Termite Protection and Inspections Termites remain a year-round concern in Georgia. Bloyd recommends annual professional inspections. Termite swarms, most common in spring, indicate an established colony and require timely attention. Northwest Exterminating offers a range of termite protection options, including the Sentricon Colony Elimination System, as well as pretreatment services for new construction in partnership with homebuilders.

AJ and Johnny sit down with Carla Ondrasik, author of Stop Trying, to unpack why the word try is secretly holding you back from real change. Carla shares how “trying” tricks your brain into feeling productive while keeping you stuck — and why doing, not trying, is the antidote to procrastination, perfectionism, and fear. They explore how language shapes behavior, why “I'll try” destroys trust and momentum, and how replacing it with decisive action transforms confidence, relationships, and follow-through. You'll learn how to silence your inner critic, embrace failure, and finally move from thinking about it to living it.
