Podcasts about Resilience

Host Nik delivers a practical, self-reflective episode recorded from the gym. This episode challenges coaches to audit their own blind spots using a 10-question diagnostic, introduces the concept of coaching as a learnable skill requiring ongoing assessment, and previews a client re-engagement intervention method to be covered in depth in Episode 3.High performing coach Scorecard00:02Welcome & ContextNik introduces Episode 2, notes the gym setting, and flags this episode will be interactive — asking listeners to participate while they listen.00:40Self-Awareness as a CoachCore theme introduced: the importance of being self-aware as a coach. Nik teases a diagnostic tool linked in the description for a deeper blind spot assessment.01:30Coaching as a SkillCoaching reframed as an acquired skill, not an innate ability. Skill acquisition requires practice, feedback, and a continuous improvement loop.02:00Lack of Assessment in the IndustryChallenges coaches to ask: 'Have I ever genuinely been assessed as a coach?' Argues that Level 3 qualifications test instruction, not coaching.02:28Defining CoachingCoaching defined as creating an environment where clients can make conscious decisions on their actions, behaviours, and goals. Coaches facilitate; they don't dictate.03:30The Cost of No FeedbackOutlines the cascade effect of never being assessed: missed development → poorer client results → lower retention → less income and confidence.04:40The 10-Question Self-AssessmentNik introduces the scoring system (1 = Strongly Disagree, 5 = Strongly Agree, max score 50) and walks through all 10 questions.10:00Score InterpretationBreaks down what your score means: 40–50 rare depth, 30–39 strong but inconsistent, below 30 is a retention risk.10:40Free Diagnostic ToolNik directs listeners to a free full diagnostic (link in description) — generates an immediate report with blind spots and actionable development areas.12:00Early Signs of DisengagementBridges to the broader series theme: recognising when clients are starting to disengage, regress in adherence, or drift in the relationship.12:50Preview: Intervention MethodTeases an intervention method used within the Connected Coach programme. Full verbal case study will be covered in Episode 3 with a question bank.Questions for the self assessment StatementWhat It Reveals1I can clearly articulate why a client is training beyond aesthetics and gym-based goals.Tests your ability to uncover the emotional 'why' behind surface-level goals.2I regularly check that a client's goals haven't subtly changed.Goals shift over time. Coaches who don't realign lose relevance and trust.3I regularly gather critical, unbiased feedback from clients.Testimonials aren't feedback. Are you proactively seeking honest critique?4A client could articulate the journey phases and milestones for the next 12 months.Measures whether clients feel a sense of direction and co-ownership of the plan.5I help clients see progress beyond scale weight, photos, and surface-level goals.Resilience in adherence depends on recognising non-aesthetic progress.6My clients understand why we do what we do.Understanding builds autonomy and reduces dependency on you to stay motivated.7I coach habits and behaviours — not just sessions and tick-box to-do lists.The difference between a trainer and a coach lives here.8Clients can describe how they've changed as a person since starting.Identity-level change is the strongest predictor of long-term adherence.9I adjust my coaching style to the individual, not my preferences.Everyone says yes — but without personality or communication assessments, how do you actually know?10I'm confident I'm not projecting my training values onto clients.Your relationship with fitness is not your client's. Projection erodes trust.

As MS Awareness Month continues, Selma Blair's story underscores the resilience it takes to keep moving forward while living with multiple sclerosis. Blair, the actress known for Cruel Intentions, Legally Blonde and the Hellboy films, has become a leading voice in the MS community since publicly sharing her diagnosis in 2018. In this conversation from October 2025, Blair joins Hoda to discuss her lifelong health struggles, her relationship with her late mother, and the support she has found in her community, including from fellow stars Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who are navigating their own MS journeys.

Stefan Molyneux talks with a caller still reeling from a divorce that political disagreements helped tear apart, leaving him estranged from his son and carrying a heavy, persistent emotional weight—loneliness, regret, a sense that life has narrowed. The man also describes the practical grind of job hunting made harder by age, employment gaps, and the current climate. Molyneux listens, then points out that such breaks, however brutal, can expose long-hidden truths about relationships and force real self-examination. He urges the caller not to let bitterness settle in permanently, but instead to focus on steady, honest effort—building skills, maintaining character, proving competence in small ways—because those actions compound over time and can eventually shift what now feels immovable. Above all, he holds that hope is not naive optimism here, but a reasoned position: people recover from far deeper losses, and the caller can rebuild too if he keeps his attention on what he can still control.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In this Sunday Morning Live on 8 March 2026, Stefan Molyneux takes aim at the sophists who chip away at genuine philosophy and any serious engagement with society. He talks about handling anxiety and financial insecurity, stressing the need for practical preparation and inner resilience rather than wishful thinking. The conversation turns to justice and morality when he responds to a listener's provocative view on redemption, pushing back with his usual insistence on clarity and consistency in moral reasoning. Throughout, he urges people to pursue real philosophical understanding and points them toward his materials as a way to engage in honest, searching discussion.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Hey Heal Squad! What do you do when life changes in an instant? Today we're finding out from someone who knows exactly what that feels like: Amy Purdy. Amy is a three-time Paralympic medalist, professional snowboarder, motivational speaker, and author. Her new book Bounce Forward: 21 Tools to Live a Life Beyond Limits (out April 14th) not only details Amy's fight for her life at 19, when bacterial meningitis left her with a 2% chance of survival and led to the loss of both of her legs, but also the devastating health crisis years later that once again threatened her mobility. But instead of letting those moments define her limits, Amy rebuilt her life using the same mindset tools she now shares in Bounce Forward. Amy opens up about the mindset shifts that helped her move from survival to strength, including the power of visualization, and learning how to stay fully present when life feels overwhelming (like not being able to be on a snowboard for the past 7 years!). With the Paralympics happening right now, this conversation is a powerful reminder of the determination, resilience, and gold-medal mindset it takes to rise again when the odds feel stacked against you. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Visualization can support both performance and healing: Amy used daily visualization, imagining snowboarding, and running again, to help her body recover during her most difficult medical battles. Your relationship with your body matters: One of Amy's most powerful practices is shifting from criticizing the body to appreciating it, even writing letters of gratitude to the body for everything it continues to do.

This episode almost didn't happen.   Within 12 hours before recording, our family dog Logan passed away, on top of what has already been one of the hardest starts to a year I can remember, both personally and professionally.   But that's exactly why Chris and I decided to sit down and have this conversation anyway. Because that's what resilience actually is: not waiting until you feel ready, but showing up in the middle of the mess.   In this episode, Chris and I go deep on what resilience really means, the difference between general resilience and grit, why modern culture is quietly eroding our tolerance for discomfort, and how to actually build the mental and emotional muscle to keep going when it feels like life keeps throwing punches.   Chris brings his framework on controllability and time horizons, we talk about the hero's journey versus the victim's story, why reactivity is not resilience, the importance of intentional rest, and why the people you choose to surround yourself with might be the most important resilience decision you make.   This one is raw, unfiltered, and recorded in real time through real pain.

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes Jen Fisher, author of Hope Is the Strategy: The Underrated Skill That Transforms Work, Leadership, and Wellbeing. In project management circles, we often hear the phrase "hope is not a strategy." Jen challenges that assumption, arguing that real hope is not wishful thinking at all. Instead, it's a practical cognitive process that can help leaders navigate uncertainty, pressure, and change. In the discussion, Jen explains how hope requires three elements: clear goals, multiple pathways to reach them, and the agency to believe we can influence outcomes. You'll also hear her personal story of realizing she was languishing under constant performance pressure, and how a candid conversation with her boss sparked the beginning of a healthier and more hopeful way of working. Along the way, Jen shares practical tools such as possibility journaling, energy ledgers, and hope spotting. She also explains why vulnerability can be a leadership superpower and how simple language shifts can turn hope killers into hope builders. If you're leading teams and projects under constant pressure and looking for practical ways to sustain both performance and wellbeing, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "How would I describe myself? I'm a hope dealer." "Hope is not flimsy. It's not whimsical." "Real hope actually requires action." "What drives hopelessness is feeling like there's nothing you can do." "Hope is the belief that tomorrow can be better than today." "67% of managers said that they've never been trained in how to manage other people. We put humans in charge of other humans, but we give them very little skill and training in how to lead." "You can perform when you're languishing, but the question is really why should we or why would we want to." "For the first time in my professional life, I actually felt seen and heard and valued." "Toxic positivity only makes people feel worse." "Possibility journaling is really thinking about what might be possible here." "Vulnerability is proof that you're human." "When people are feeling uncertain, they want to connect to somebody that feels human."

For more learning on this topic, check out: Episode 462 with Margie Warrell. Part of Jen's message in the book is the importance of agency—of believing that you're not a victim and that you have options. Margie is a fierce advocate for how to take action when you're feeling hopeless. I highly recommend her work. Episode 448 with Marie-Hélène Pelletier. It's an engaging discussion about burnout and resilience, and a fantastic follow-up to this discussion with Jen. Episode 396 with Thomas Curran.

In boardrooms across the world, the tone of executive conversations has shifted. Where once the dominant themes were growth, expansion and digital transformation, today the language is more cautious: resilience, cost control, supply risk, and operational visibility. The global economy is entering one of those periods where volatility becomes the defining feature rather than the exception. Inflationary pressure, supply chain disruption, energy shocks, and geopolitical fragmentation have created an environment in which corporate leaders are being asked to do something extremely difficult: spend less, but operate smarter. For many organisations, the largest opportunity to accomplish this goal sits in a place that historically received far less executive attention than product, finance, marketing or sales – procurement. Procurement has traditionally been viewed as an operational function tasked with negotiating prices and managing supplier relationships. But that perception is increasingly outdated. In an era defined by supply chain fragility and cost scrutiny, procurement is rapidly emerging as one of the most strategic levers available to the modern enterprise. And at the heart of that transformation lies a new generation of source-to-pay procurement platforms that promise something executives have long struggled to achieve: real-time control over how money actually leaves the business. When companies experience economic headwinds, the first instinct is usually to freeze hiring or cut discretionary spending. While those actions may deliver short-term relief, they rarely address the deeper structural problem – a lack of visibility into where capital and operational expenditure are truly going. Many large organisations still rely on fragmented purchasing systems, spreadsheets, email approvals and manual invoice processing. The result is predictable: hidden spending, duplicated suppliers, inconsistent contract compliance and a procurement function that struggles to provide accurate insight into enterprise wide expenditure. Source-to-pay technology is designed to eliminate that opacity. A modern source-to-pay platform integrates every stage of the procurement lifecycle into a single digital workflow, beginning with supplier discovery and strategic sourcing and continuing through contracting, purchasing, invoicing and payment. Instead of procurement existing as a patchwork of disconnected processes, the entire spend ecosystem becomes structured, trackable and measurable. This shift is particularly powerful when it comes to capital expenditure. Capex decisions often involve large, multi-departmental investments, infrastructure upgrades, manufacturing equipment, technology deployments that can stretch across months or even years. Without centralised visibility, organisations frequently underestimate the long-term financial impact of these commitments or fail to capture economies of scale when negotiating with suppliers. Source-to-pay systems introduce discipline into these decisions by standardising approval processes, linking procurement activity directly to financial planning, and capturing every data point associated with the investment. Executives are no longer forced to rely on retrospective reporting to understand capital allocation. Instead, they can evaluate spending patterns as they emerge, allowing finance leaders to align procurement activity more closely with strategic priorities. Operational expenditure presents a different but equally challenging problem. OpEx tends to accumulate gradually through thousands of small purchasing decisions made across departments. Software subscriptions, consulting engagements, marketing services, office equipment, logistics contracts, individually these costs may appear modest, but collectively they can represent a significant portion of an organisation's annual budget. The challenge is not simply the magnitude of the spend but the fragmentation of the data surrounding it. In many compan...

Dr. Alex Marson, MD, PhD, is a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. We discuss the biology of the immune system and cancer, and everyday choices that can increase or decrease your cancer risk, several of which are surprising but all of which are actionable. We also discuss immunotherapy, including how engineered T-cells can be used to defeat childhood and adult cancers. Dr. Marson explains CRISPR and gene editing to cure diseases, and we address the ethical questions surrounding gene editing in embryos, children and adults. This discussion is for anyone interested in avoiding cancer and/or seeking to understand the science and practical applications of immune- or gene-therapy. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.

What if the strategy that made you successful is now the very thing holding you back? In this episode, Steve sits down with returning guest Dre Baldwin—author, founder of Work on Your Game University, and fearless thinker—to unpack why high performers, especially lawyers, default to outworking every problem…and why that instinct eventually stops working. Dre and Steve dig into one of the most common traps for attorneys: misdiagnosis. You assume the problem is what you can see; clients aren't paying, leads have slowed down, billing feels messy, the team can't keep up. But those are often symptoms. The real issue is usually upstream: poor case selection, weak marketing skills, unclear positioning, or a diluted message that attracts the wrong work. Dre uses the Animal Farm character Boxer and the "kinetic chain" idea to show how effort, when misapplied, becomes its own obstacle and why pressing harder on the gas pedal can keep you stuck. A major thread in this conversation is the shift from improvement to leverage. Once you've been in the game long enough, the breakthrough usually isn't "get better at the job." It's learning how to extract more output from the ability you already have: through better questions, discernment, niching, signal clarity, delegation, and sometimes doing less in the wrong places so the real constraint shows up. They also talk about the difference between confidence and courage: confidence feels good because the path is familiar; courage is staying focused, like niching down, even when you hit the uncomfortable "void" where optionality shrinks and results haven't caught up yet. Hedging feels safer, but it dilutes impact. Stop pressing harder on the gas. The leverage you're looking for is on the other side of a better question, and this episode gives you practical ways to find it, including using outside perspectives (coaches and even well-prompted AI) to challenge assumptions, being willing to be an amateur again in new domains, and testing counterintuitive moves like scaling back effort so better solutions can surface. In this episode, you will hear: Why high performers default to outworking every problem — and when that strategy stops working The Animal Farm "Boxer" trap and what it costs lawyers and professionals over time Diagnosing root causes vs. symptoms using the kinetic chain analogy How to use a coach or AI to challenge assumptions and surface the real issue The courage to do less — and why it's harder than working more Niching down, signal clarity, and the uncomfortable void between pivoting and results The critical difference between confidence and courage, and why courage is what actually creates leverage ----------- Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

We Didn't Plan For This… is a new special series from the hosts of How Yoga Changed My Life about navigating life transitions, and unexpected change in real time.After Adrienne's sudden loss of her husband, so many of you reached out with the same words: “I didn't plan for this either.” A diagnosis. A body that changed. A marriage that shifted. A child who is struggling. A dream that fell apart.This first episode sets the tone for the series. We're not rehashing the details of what happened. We're talking about where we are now — and how yoga, breath, and small daily practices can help us keep showing up through grief, parenting, identity shifts, and hard seasons.This is not trauma-informed certification language. It's not five steps to resilience. It's honest conversation about strength, energy, work, friendship, our bodies, and ordinary days that don't look the way we expected.We're not trying to fix anything.We're living it — as it's happening.And at the end of each episode, we'll pause together before stepping back into our day.We didn't plan for this.But we're here.Support the Smith FamilySeveral people have asked how to support our family during this time.

In this episode, Merom Klein—business psychologist, innovation leadership expert, and co-founder of Courage Growth Partners—joins Duane Mancini to unpack why courage is a decisive differentiator for medtech innovators trying to earn funding, win pilot customers, and drive adoption of a new standard of care. Merom shares how his entrepreneurial family background, early work in organizational psychology, and experience building startups shaped his focus on making courage contagious. The conversation reframes fear as inevitable—and even necessary—and explores how leaders can “flip the switch” in high-stakes moments to avoid risk-averse traps, respond productively when partners or teams fall short, and turn criticism into forward motion. They dive into resilience, the value of pressure as a privilege, and why your #1 job in tough rooms is changing the energy and aligning people to shared purpose.Merom Klein LinkedInCourage Growth Partners Website“Courage to Champion” BookDuane Mancini LinkedInProject Medtech WebsiteProject Medtech LinkedInThank you to our sponsors: Ward Law and JumpStart Inc.

What if artificial intelligence could actually make us more human at work? In Episode 253, Paul sits down with John Betancourt, Founder and CEO of Humantelligence, to explore how personalized AI coaching is reshaping leadership, hiring, collaboration, and workplace engagement. John's career spans global corporate leadership, executive search for private equity firms, and multiple startups. Through decades of observing culture fit, leadership failures, and executive misalignment, he uncovered a powerful insight: skills are commodities but psychology, culture fit, and behavior determine long-term success.  Humantelligence was  born from that realization. By combining psychometrics with AI, John is helping organizations scale leadership development and team effectiveness in ways that were previously only available to top executives. But this conversation goes deeper than business. It touches on resilience, exile, identity, spirituality, fatherhood, and what legacy truly means. This episode challenges entrepreneurs to think beyond revenue and ask a bigger question: How do we build companies that develop people, not just profits?

Our dialogue delves into the intricacies of anxiety and the underlying emotions that often fuel it. I invite listeners to reflect on their relationship with anxiety and how to discern the subtle messages it communicates.A significant focus of our discussion is the Hidden Emotion Model—a technique I learned and refined during my training that unveils the repressed feelings driving anxiety. Dr. Burns eloquently explains how individuals, often conscientious and "nice," suppress emotions like fear, anger, and disappointment, which leads to heightened anxiety. By recognizing and articulating these hidden emotions, individuals can often alleviate their anxiety significantly. Dr. Burns shares a compelling vignette involving a man struggling with panic attacks after receiving unexpected news about parenthood. This example illustrates the necessity of acknowledging uncomfortable emotions to pave the way for healing.Our conversation also touches on the societal stigmas surrounding emotional expression, particularly for those who identify as "nice" people. Dr. Burns and I explore how mental health diagnostics can inadvertently contribute to feelings of shame and inadequacy among patients. It's a powerful reminder that many who battle anxiety face not only internal struggles but external societal pressures that may dictate how they should feel or behave.#Anxiety, #PanicAttacks, #MentalHealth, #CBT, #DrDavidBurns, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #FeelingGood, #FeelingGreat, #Psychology, #Mindfulness, #SelfHelp, #Recovery, #Wellness, #Healing, #StressRelief, #InnerPeace, #MentalWellness, #SelfCare, #Therapy, #Coaching, #EmotionalIntelligence, #NervousSystem, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicDisorder, #SocialAnxiety, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #GrowthMindset, #Authenticity, #Boundaries, #SelfLove, #IntrusiveThoughts, #OCD, #HealthAnxiety, #MindfulLiving, #Breathwork, #Meditation, #Zen, #Spirituality, #PersonalGrowth, #Resilience, #Empowerment, #HealthyMind, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Psychotherapy, #Counseling, #WellnessJourney, #LifeCoaching, #MentalHealthMatters, #AnxietySupportSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

remote farm where Sindre lived.No: Han sto ved vinduet på kjøkkenet og så ut over de snødekte åkrene.En: He stood by the window in the kitchen, looking out over the snow-covered fields.No: Det var stille, bare lyden av vinden som ulte gjennom de gamle tretårene kunne høres.En: It was quiet, with only the sound of the wind howling through the old wooden cracks.No: Sindre var vant til kulda, men denne vinterstormen var sterkere enn noen han hadde opplevd på lenge.En: Sindre was used to the cold, but this winter storm was stronger than any he had experienced in a long time.No: "Dyrene," mumlet

underestimated the heart's strength for others' support.No: Da hun nådde gården, kunne hun knapt se fjøsets røde vegger gjennom snøen som drev.En: When she reached the farm, she could barely see the barn's red walls through the driving snow.No: Hun banket på døren og lyttet.En: She knocked on the door and listened.No: "Sindre?En: "Sindre?No: Er du der?En: Are you there?"No: " ropte hun over

Tait Fletcher on Jiu-Jitsu, Truth, Persistence, and Healing Pete Deeley interviews Professor Tait Fletcher about how combat sports shaped his life and character. Fletcher traces his path from Dog Brothers stick fighting to early Jiu Jitsu training in the 1990s, learning from figures including Arlan Sanford, Amal Easton, later also receiving a black belt from Eddie Bravo. He describes competing widely, fighting in MMA, training with notable fighters, and appearing on The Ultimate Fighter Season 3, emphasizing Eddie Bravo's systematic coaching. The conversation focuses on jiu-jitsu as a source of truth, humility, community, and accelerated learning, stating that teammates improve together through generosity rather than ego. Fletcher discusses plateaus, staying the course, finding joy in training, and how a severe head injury in 2019 led him to rely on Jiu Jitsu, discipline, curiosity, and community to recover and re-engage with life, advocating responsibility, eliminating complaints, and consistent action toward one's destiny. 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 00:50 Why Combat Sports 02:04 Dog Brothers to Groundwork 03:54 Early BJJ and First Coaches 05:08 Competition and Breakthroughs 06:16 Black Belts and LA Move 09:55 Jiu Jitsu Shaves Time 11:02 Truth and Gym Culture 15:57 Ego Checks and Mentors 25:09 Injury Recovery and Resilience 28:24 Curiosity and Healing Forward 30:45 Act Reflect Repeat 32:04 Life Is A Beta Test 32:26 Jiu Jitsu Finds The Path 33:02 The Artist Roadmap 35:32 Create For Yourself 36:37 Stay Ready For Opportunity 37:42 Curiosity Meets Faith 40:16 Suffer Well In Training 44:37 Resist Complaining 47:18 Move A Muscle 49:02 Everyone Is An Artist 53:20 Jiu Jitsu And Presence 55:29 Grandparent Presence Lessons 01:00:46 Gratitude And Goodbye

What if healing from trauma didn't have to wait until life finally slowed down?What if recovery could happen in real time, right in the middle of uncertainty, responsibility, and everyday life?In this episode of Message in the Middle, Marianne is joined by Emma Churchman, nationally certified trauma chaplain, leadership mentor, executive consultant, and founder of the Trauma Recovery Certification Program. Together, they explore what trauma really is, how it often lives quietly in the body, and why so many people carry unrecognized trauma while continuing to perform, lead, and show up for others.Emma challenges the idea that trauma recovery must happen years later or only in clinical settings. Instead, she shares why processing trauma in real time can be both possible and powerful, and how addressing trauma at the root creates lasting resilience rather than symptom management.They also redefine resilience, moving away from the idea of “bouncing back” and toward evolving forward. From trauma-informed workplaces to personal healing, this conversation offers insight, compassion, and hope for anyone navigating the space between the life they planned and the life they're living.Whether you're in a season of personal challenge, leadership pressure, or quiet self-reflection, this episode invites you to reconsider what healing can look like right now.In This Episode, We Talk About:How trauma is defined and why it's more common than we thinkEveryday experiences that often live in the body as traumaWhy trauma recovery doesn't have to wait years to beginWhat real-time trauma processing looks like in daily lifeAddressing trauma at the root instead of managing symptomsHow trauma can hide behind competence, success, and reliabilityWhat trauma-informed leadership and workplaces truly requireRedefining resilience as evolving forward rather than bouncing backHealing, growth, and perspective shifts in midlifeConnect with Emma:Website:  https://www.emmachurchman.com/traumaEmma's lates book:  https://a.co/d/dzgS7ov Connect with Marianne: Website: Message In The Middle with Marianne Message In the Middle Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/422430469323847/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MessageInTheMiddle/playlists LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marianne-demello-smith-678b9966 Email: Contact | Message In The Middle with Marianne Subscribe to Message In the Middle: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Leave Us a Review: If you enjoyed today's episode, please leave a review and share your favorite takeaway.

Stefan Molyneux speaks with a caller who has been hammered by back-to-back disasters—an electrical fire that displaced his family and a car accident that involved his daughter. The man sounds exhausted and overwhelmed, but Molyneux stays steady, listening closely before guiding him toward practical resilience: accepting that pain doesn't have to dictate the future and taking concrete steps like reaching out to build real connections and network for work when everything else feels closed off. By the end the caller's tone shifts from defeat to quiet determination, as he starts to see a path forward—not because the problems disappear, but because he now has a clearer sense of how to begin climbing out.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In today's episode I sit down with professor Ann Masten to unpack what resilience actually means—and why it's so often misunderstood. We explore her powerful definition of resilience as the capacity of a system to adapt to serious challenges, not just a personality trait or inner toughness. From everyday stress to real adversity, we discuss the difference between harmful trauma and growth-building challenges, and why kids need support—not perfection—to thrive. We talk about the “ordinary magic” of caring relationships, schools, communities, and cultural traditions, and why resilience is built through connection across multiple systems.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

How confident are you that your business could recover from a cyberattack, cloud outage, or infrastructure failure in minutes rather than hours or even days? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I explore the changing nature of enterprise resilience with Joseph D'Angelo and Cassie Stanek from InfoScale, now part of Cloud Software Group. Our conversation looks at why many organizations still rely on backup and replication strategies that were designed for a very different era of IT. In a world of hybrid infrastructure, multi-cloud deployments, and increasingly complex application stacks, those traditional tools often protect the data but often fail to restore the business services that depend on it. My guests shares how InfoScale approaches resilience from the application layer outward. Instead of focusing on individual components such as storage or infrastructure, the platform looks at the relationships between applications, services, and data so entire systems can be orchestrated and recovered as a coordinated unit. That distinction becomes especially important during a ransomware attack or cloud outage, where restoring a single database rarely brings a digital business back online. We also discuss how growing regulatory pressure is changing the conversation. Enterprises are no longer expected to simply claim they have disaster recovery processes in place. Increasingly they must demonstrate, test, and prove that recovery capabilities actually work. Cassie explains how controlled "fire drill" rehearsals allow organizations to validate recovery plans without disrupting production systems, creating defensible proof that systems can be restored when it matters most. We also look ahead to the next phase of resilience, where environments will increasingly diagnose, adapt, and respond to disruptions in real time. Instead of reacting after an outage occurs, operational resilience will rely on predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and automated response capabilities that allow systems to self-correct before users ever notice a problem. Throughout our discussion, one theme becomes clear. IT resilience is no longer just an infrastructure conversation. It has become a business continuity strategy that directly affects revenue, customer trust, and competitive advantage. As organizations depend more heavily on digital services, the ability to recover quickly from disruption is becoming one of the defining capabilities of modern enterprise technology. So after listening, I'm curious about your perspective. Do you think most organizations are truly prepared for operational resilience in a multi-cloud world, or are many still relying on backup strategies that were built for a much simpler IT environment?

After a recent conversation on the Aubrey Marcus Podcast sparked widespread discussion, Dr John Demartini returns to clarify his perspective on trauma, morality, and human resilience. In this episode, he dives deep into how we can transform even life's most challenging experiences - from loss and suffering to extreme adversity - into opportunities for growth, meaning, and purpose.Dr Demartini explains why rigid moral labels like “good” and “evil” can trap us in black-and-white thinking and limit our adaptability. Using insights from neuroscience, human behavior, and decades of work helping thousands of people worldwide, he shares how we can access the brain's executive center to respond rather than react, find balance in life's opposites, and become masters of our own destiny.If you want to move beyond victimhood, expand your awareness, and discover how challenges can unlock hidden potential, this episode is a must-listen.This content is for educational and personal development purposes only.

Sasha Hamdani (Too Sensitive: Rejection, Resilience, and the Science of Feeling Deeply) is a board-certified psychiatrist and ADHD clinical specialist. Sasha joins the Armchair Expert to discuss the classroom insurrection she started which led to her ADHD diagnosis, how her residency rebuilt the confidence that medical school degraded, and that symptoms known today as ADHD first showed up in the 1700s. Sasha and Dax talk about her beef with diagnostic labels and how often trauma is misdiagnosed as ADHD, how liberating it was to understand the way her brain functions, and neurological reasons why grief is so destabilizing for someone with ADHD. Sasha explains the importance of being able to emotionally regulate before conflict, her hot take on self-diagnosis, and non-stimulant, skills-based approaches that work well to treat ADHD.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send a textWhat do first responders actually need from therapy to make it stick? We unpack fresh survey results from 46 clients and more than 30 first responders to surface what's working, what's missing, and the changes we're rolling out next. From session length and structure to real follow-up and safer groups, this is a candid look at the nuts and bolts of care that moves the needle.We dig into why 60 minutes often isn't enough and how a 90-minute option creates space to warm up, process, and land with a clear plan. We're honest about insurance friction and share practical paths forward, including an optional add-on that protects access without cutting depth. You'll also hear how our first responder group keeps trust high with two hard lines—strict confidentiality and a no-apologies norm—so people can speak plainly about trauma, hypervigilance, substance use, and family strain without fear of gossip or judgment.A big theme is momentum between sessions. Listeners asked for homework, short videos, book recs, and a single “action before next session” to keep progress alive on real shifts like sleep, sobriety, anger, or communication. We share how we're building lightweight follow-ups that fit busy schedules and how wellness visits, vetted resources, and culturally competent clinicians can make help easier to find and safer to use. We also preview more solo segments by request, upcoming presentations, and a growing network designed to connect police, fire, and EMS with trusted treatment options across Massachusetts.If you care about first responder mental health, you'll leave with clarity on what changes are coming—longer sessions, stronger follow-up, and a tighter, safer community of support.
