What if growth isn't about pushing harder, but about letting go more skillfully? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with coach and author Suzy Ashworth for a grounded, activating conversation about identity shifts, pivots, and what it actually takes to receive more in life and business. Together, they explore why true transformation doesn't come from strategy alone, but from who you're willing to become in your body, your nervous system, and your sense of self. Suzy shares how the most powerful pivots in her life and work didn't come from forcing outcomes, but from releasing attachment to timelines, outcomes, and the need to prove. They unpack the difference between desire and striving, why pleasure and joy create magnetism, and how detachment becomes a superpower when it comes to manifestation and receiving. This conversation reframes success as an internal orientation first, and an external result second. This episode is for anyone standing at the edge of a change, sensing that the next level requires less effort and more trust, and learning how to open themselves to receive what's already available. KEY MOMENTS: 00:00:00 — Identity as the starting point of transformation 00:03:15 — Setting the energetic field: invocation, coherence, intention 00:07:00 — Why the pivot matters more than the plan 00:11:20 — Joy and pleasure as stabilizers for growth 00:18:10 — Choosing who you become when life forces a reckoning 00:24:30 — Resilience, failure, and expanding emotional capacity 00:27:00 — Detachment as a manifestation superpower 00:31:00 — Faith plus action: alignment without exhaustion 00:34:00 — Identity before income and external results 00:46:00 — Integration: when the work becomes how you live About Suzy Ashworth Suzy Ashworth is a coach, speaker, and bestselling author of Infinite Receiving.

This episode is brought to you by Strong Coffee Company, Supp Co, and WHOOP. In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, psychologist and addiction expert Dr. Adi Jaffe reframes addiction, compulsive behavior, and self-sabotage as intelligent coping strategies rather than personal failures. He explains why labeling people as "addicts" creates shame and traps identity, how early childhood and even preverbal experiences shape adult behavior, and why most habits don't change through awareness alone. Dr. Jaffe introduces his SPARROW Behavioral Loop—stimulus, perception, activation, response, outcome—to show how emotions and bodily sensations, not events themselves, drive behavior. Together, they explore identity, responsibility without blame, growth mindset, emotional regulation, stoicism, belief systems, and why sustainable change comes from reshaping perception and nervous system responses rather than fighting behaviors directly. This conversation offers a compassionate, practical framework for breaking patterns and moving forward—without shame.

Send us a textWhat if the life you're living right now is inviting you to slow down, listen deeper, and finally come home to yourself?In this powerful and soul-expanding episode of Self Reflection Podcast, host Lira Ndifon sits with Ann Jonas for a deeply intentional conversation on self-reflection, spirituality, and the sacred connection between the human experience and the divine. This episode isn't just a discussion—it's an invitation. An invitation to pause, to breathe, and to remember who you are beneath the noise, the conditioning, and the expectations of the world.Together, Lira and Ann explore self-reflection as a gateway to healing—both within ourselves and in how we relate to others. They unpack the idea that we are constantly reflecting and being reflected, using metaphors like “walking disco balls,” Earth school, and the Matrix to illuminate how life's challenges, triggers, and moments of contraction are not punishments, but portals for growth and expansion. This conversation gently reminds us that resilience isn't about never falling—it's about choosing to rise again with awareness.The episode also dives deep into the contrast between religion and spirituality, examining how organized systems have shaped society while spirituality offers a direct, personal relationship with God, Source, and self. Ann speaks on sovereignty, choice, and alignment—encouraging listeners to move from fear-based living into heart-led awareness, where intuition becomes the true moral compass and presence becomes power.The experience culminates in a guided moment of self-reflection and meditation, creating space for listeners to reconnect with their inner light, soften into the present moment, and affirm their inherent worth. This episode serves as a reminder that healing doesn't require perfection—it begins with presence, curiosity, and the willingness to choose yourself again and again.If this conversation resonates, take it with you. Reflect on it. Sit with it. Let it meet you where you are. And if you feel called, share it with someone who might need a gentle reminder that they are not alone on their journey.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

Segment 1: Interview with Warwick Webb From Initial Entry to Resilience: Understanding Modern Attack Flows Modern cyberattacks don't unfold as isolated alerts--they move as coordinated attack flows that exploit gaps between tools, teams, and time. In this episode, Warwick Webb, Vice President of Managed Detection and Response at SentinelOne, breaks down how today's breaches often begin invisibly, progress undetected through siloed security stacks, and accelerate faster than human response alone can handle. He'll discuss how unified platforms, machine-speed detection powered by global threat intelligence, and expert-led response change the equation--turning fragmented signals into clear attack narratives. The conversation concludes with how organizations can move beyond incident response to build resilience, readiness, and continuous improvement through post-attack analysis. Listeners will leave with a clearer understanding of how attacks actually unfold in the real world—and what it takes to move from reactive alert handling to true attack-flow-driven defense.

Resilience is the buzzword of the moment—from Gerard's personal resilience on display in Davos last week to the critical issue of grid resilience.  The great Doug Houseman draws a useful distinction between reliability and resilience. “Reliability is about how well you keep the lights on, while resilience is about how quickly you can restore power after an outage.”  Over the past year, blackouts caused by extreme weather, human error, and physical attacks have exposed an uncomfortable truth: electricity is no longer invisible background infrastructure. It is the backbone of modern society, and when it fails, everything else quickly follows.  To explore these challenges, Laurent and Gerard sit down with Ronny Fiuren, one of the Nordics' sharpest thinkers on energy. Ronny is the Founder of Mylicia Energy, an executive board member, and a strategic business developer with deep expertise in power markets, energy flexibility, and grid-oriented solutions.  Together, they discuss why resilience has evolved from a technical afterthought into a strategic priority, and what recent events across Europe and North America are really telling us about the condition of our power grids.  The conversation examines how decentralisation, flexibility, and the use of advanced technologies and AI matter more than ever. It also highlights the need for a shift in mindset, not only among grid operators but also regulators.  They explore the value of interconnectors in strengthening power systems, while also unpacking their political dimensions and the strong public emotions that can emerge when electricity prices rise suddenly.  Beyond weather-related disruptions and cyber threats, the discussion turns to new risks such as deliberate sabotage and how energy systems can be designed to cope with them.  From Scandinavia to the rest of Europe, this is a timely conversation about how to build power systems capable of withstanding shocks in an increasingly electrified and digital world.----Read Ember Europe Electricity Review  https://ember-energy.org/latest-insights/european-electricity-review-2026/

"We need to focus on who we are." The secret to raising resilient children starts with the parent stepping away to find their own calm in the chaos.In this episode of the Real Things Living Podcast, Brigitte Cutshall explores the essentials of Parental Resilience with psychologist and author Dr. Kate Lund. Dr. Lund introduces her "Step Away" book, which focuses on the psychology of parenting and why resilient parenting requires us to prioritize our own well-being first.They dive into the comparison trap of social media, the importance of mindfulness for parents, and practical strategies for overcoming parental stress. By shifting from a "crisis mode" to a "resilient lifestyle," moms and dads can find better work-life balance for families and improve overall mental health for moms and dads.3 Key Takeaways(1) Manage the Baseline: Resilience isn't just for emergencies; it's a daily practice. Using tools like the "relaxation response" helps parents start their day at a lower stress level so they can ride life's challenges like a wave.(2) The "Step Away" Philosophy: Stepping away isn't about checked-out parenting; it's about putting on your own oxygen mask first. By prioritizing self-awareness and personal joy, parents can "step back in" more robustly for their families.(3) Context Over Comparison: High stress often stems from comparing our "messy" reality to curated digital lives. True resilience comes from optimizing within your own unique context and focusing on authentic human connection.To find more of Dr. Kate Lund's resources and pick up a copy of her new book, Step Away, visit her website at https://KateLundSpeaks.com Connect with her on: LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-lund/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dr_kate_lund/

Playwright and BAFTA-nominated screenwriter Moira Buffini on moving between theatre, film, and fiction, writing for yourself instead of the market, and shaping structure by rewriting toward the ending you want readers to feel.    You'll learn:Why “you are the audience” can be a practical rule for cutting through market noise and writing with conviction. A useful way to handle reviews and outside opinions without letting them steer the work. How to build story momentum when you can't fully plot ahead, and why not knowing the next move can be a strength. A structure approach based on “writing toward a feeling” at the end, then layering drafts until the story clicks. What discipline looks like when you're writing big worlds in prose, and how constraints can keep you from getting lost. How a dramatist's instincts (plot, structure, obstacles) can transfer into long-form fiction and help sustain narrative drive.   A grounded reminder about the “mundane” day-to-day of being a professional writer, and why that doesn't cancel the magic. The practical foundations she names for keeping your mind working (sleep, movement, and treating the body as part of the instrument). What it can take to keep writing alongside caring responsibilities, and why persistence is often the hardest part.   The simplest career advice she returns to: don't accept the story that you “can't,” and keep putting in the hours. Resources & Links:

Episode 2887: Allison Carmen reflects on how early experiences with bullies can shape a child's self-perception and future confidence, revealing that true strength lies in compassion, not control. By teaching children to recognize the fear behind cruelty, they can reclaim their inner power, avoid intimidation, and build a foundation for lasting success grounded in empathy and self-assurance. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.allisoncarmen.com/can-our-childrens-view-of-the-bully-be-tied-to-their-future-success/ Quotes to ponder: "Real strength does not need to prove anything. It can stand on its own without a word spoken and that is the real power." "It takes more strength to be peaceful, loving and kind in the face of adversity than to yell and scream and hurt the ones around you." "My hope is that true strength will follow them through life so their success won't be determined by the bully in the room."

EPISODE 235 In our age of constant comparison, endless opinions, and relentless noise, one of the greatest challenges we face is not deciding what to do, but deciding who to listen to. Trends change. External validation is fleeting. Yet, beneath the surface of all this motion, there exists something far more stable: your North Star. Your North Star is not a goal, a job title, or a destination. Your North Star is an internal compass, a deeply held sense of purpose, values, and direction that remains constant even when circumstances change. Your North Star, is your Intuition. Stephen Lesavich, PhD Your North Star, your Intuition, is your First Sense, what you use before using your other five senses of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching. Believing in your North Star, your Intuition, is the act of trusting that inner guidance, especially when the path forward feels uncertain. A life guided by your North Star, your Intuition, is be linear, but it is coherent. Over time, seemingly disconnected choices begin to form a pattern. Effort feels purposeful. Resilience deepens. Confidence becomes quieter but more stable. What are practical steps to connect with your own North Star, your Intuition? When you trust that internal compass, your North Star, your Intuition, you move through uncertainty with dignity. You make fewer decisions driven by fear and more driven by meaning. Believing in your North Star, your Intuition, is not about having all the answers. It is about committing to live in relationship with your inner truth, even as it evolves to create a positive impact in your life. That is your real north, your North Star, its your Intuition.

In this heartfelt conversation, Stephanie Jordan and Michelle Bader Ebersole talk honestly about the ongoing reality of widowhood—the part that doesn't end after the casseroles stop coming. They explore how loneliness can linger long after others expect you to be “better,” why continued support matters, and how community and friendship can make the difference between surviving and truly healing. This episode is a reminder that grief is not a season—it's a journey—and no one should have to walk it alone.Grief doesn't disappear—it evolves, and so does the need for support.The hardest part of widowhood often comes after others move on.Loneliness can surface months or even years after loss.Ongoing check-ins matter more than people realize.Grief is not something to “get over,” but something to carry with support.Community plays a powerful role in long-term healing.Acknowledging continued pain helps widows feel seen and understood.Resilience grows when people consistently show up.Friendship can be a lifeline in seasons of deep loss.My website: https://thestephaniejordan.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/thestephaniejordan/FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheStephanieJordanLinked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thestephanie-jordan/TikTok: @The.Stephanie.JordanTikTok link:  https://www.tiktok.com/@the.stephanie.jordan?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thestephaniejordan.Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1958441007 (BIB book) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1W6SQNK  (BIB ebook) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM63F993 (TDS books)The Narcissistic Bride of Christ Amazon Links:US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DJYQ1G6RClick HERE to learn about the Widow Goals Support Program Click Here to learn more about the upcoming Widow Goals retreatClick HERE to order Michelle's book Widow Goals: Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your SpouseClick HERE to order the Widow Goals WorkbookClick HERE to order the Widow Goals Workbook Leader GuideClick HERE to apply to be a Widow Goals Group LeaderClick here to be sent an email on the anniversary of your spouse's passing, wedding anniversary, and more Click HERE to review Widow Goals on AmazonBook Michelle as a speakerGo here to see a list of all the areas we have Widow Goals Groups⁠⁠To join our podcast listener community, send me a message here.

Entrepreneur and martial arts instructor Gary Engels joins me to unpack what it really means to rebuild when everything is stripped away—and why modern resilience requires more than grit.Most stories about reinvention soften the edges. This episode doesn't. Gary and I walk through what happens when loss is not metaphorical but literal: a house fire that destroyed everything he owned while raising three children under five, leaving him with nothing but insurance paperwork, a hotel room, and the responsibility to keep going.Gary shares how that moment forced a recalibration of risk, preparedness, and identity. From running a martial arts school for over two decades to building and exiting businesses across marketing, gig work, corporate networks, and professional services, his story is less about hustle and more about designing a life that doesn't collapse under stress.We explore how personal catastrophe reshapes perspective on money, why low burn rates matter more than high incomes, and how the gig economy has quietly become a resilience layer—not a side hustle—for over half of the U.S. workforce. Gary explains why independence isn't about chasing upside, but about reducing fragility.The conversation spans entrepreneurship, minimalism, family pressure, leadership, and the illusion of security in both “safe” careers and high-status wealth. We dig into why many high earners are more trapped than free, how possessions quietly tax attention and energy, and why preparedness—financial and psychological—is a leadership skill, not paranoia.This is not a motivational comeback story. It's a sober conversation about optionality, responsibility, and how repeated resets—business failures, market shifts, personal loss—can either hollow you out or harden your foundations.The lesson isn't optimism.It's realism: life will break your plans.Your job is to build systems that still function when it does.TL;DR* Total loss reframes what actually matters faster than success ever does* Low burn rates increase options more than high income* Gig work isn't instability—it's distributed resilience* Independence starts with expense control, not income growth* Every possession adds hidden management cost and stress* Most “security” is illusionary and fragile* Leadership is about preparedness, not bravado* You either win or you learn—but both require staying in the fightMemorable Lines* “I'd rather be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.”* “Everything you own becomes a job.”* “Most people don't lose because they fail—they lose because they're unprepared.”* “Freedom comes from lowering the rock before trying to lift it.”* “It doesn't matter what happens to you. What matters is what you do next.”GuestGary Engels — Entrepreneur, CEO, and martial arts instructorCEO of MyGig, focused on helping independent workers and businesses access professional-grade services without corporate dependency. Veteran founder across brick-and-mortar, marketing, corporate networks, and gig economy platforms.Why This MattersThe modern economy rewards flexibility, not loyalty.Jobs disappear. Businesses reset. Income streams vanish overnight—sometimes literally in flames. Most people are taught to optimize for growth without understanding fragility.This episode reframes resilience as a design problem, not a personality trait.For founders, operators, and executives navigating volatility, this conversation offers a clearer lens: success isn't avoiding collapse—it's building systems that let you recover quickly without sacrificing family, health, or identity.Stability doesn't come from comfort.It comes from preparedness, discipline, and the willingness to rethink everything when the ground gives way.

In this episode of Dimensions of Diversity, host Lloyd Freeman welcomes the newly minted Dr. Ky'a Jackson, to discuss her doctoral research which focused on the academic resilience of African-American female college students from Camden, New Jersey. Dr. Jackson explains how the intersection of race, gender, and place shaped the students' experiences, drawing heavily on her own background growing up in Camden.Lloyd and Dr. Jackson discuss the societal and personal pressures these young women face, the critical role of "golden nuggets" of support from their community, and the specific strategies they employ to persevere. She introduces two memorable frameworks: the "Four Cs" (Color, Carat, Clarity, Cut) to describe the pressures that shaped these students, and the "SHINE" acronym (Stability, Help, Investment, Nurturing, Empathy) as a guide for others to support them effectively.Dimensions of Diversity is a podcast created by Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney, highlighting diversity in the workplace. Hosted by Lloyd Freeman, Chief Experience Officer, the podcast features meaningful conversations with industry and community leaders working to advance D&I.  

We kick off this final day at Bett UK 2026 with a splash of joy as Dr. Ali Struthers and James from Taskmaster Education take us inside the "Taskmaster Club." They discuss how the beloved TV format is being used to assess the "unmeasurable" skills like collaboration, lateral thinking, and resilience while teaching children valuable life lessons about fair play and understanding that "not everyone is a winner". Turning to the structural side of education, we navigate the complex world of professional standards with Andy Donachie from The CPD Group, who issues a critical warning about the surge of low-quality, AI-generated training and emphasizes why true credibility must remain rooted in human expertise. Rounding out the episode, Michael Forshaw from EdTech Impact tackles the hidden challenge of "shadow apps," explaining how his new "Digital Audit" service helps schools uncover forgotten subscriptions and shift their focus from buying "shiny" tech to measuring actual evidence and impact in the classroom.

SummaryIn this episode, Chase and Chris dive deep into why belief in yourself has to come before anything else.You can have the perfect macros, the best workout plan, and all the right tools—but if you don't actually believe you can do it, none of that will matter. They explain how broken promises, unrealistic expectations, and an all-or-nothing mindset slowly chip away at your trust in yourself.You'll learn how to rebuild that belief with small daily wins, why failing isn't the problem (but quitting is), and how to stop waiting to feel ready—and start becoming ready by showing up.If you've ever said, “I always fall off,” or “I just can't stay consistent,” this episode is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed.Chapters(00:00) Why Belief in Yourself Comes First(01:45) How Self-Limiting Beliefs Hold You Back(04:30) The Difference Between Confidence and Belief(07:06) Broken Promises = Broken Progress(09:36) How Failing Can Actually Build Trust(10:06) Why You're Not “All or Nothing”—You Just Don't Trust Yourself(12:47) Lower the Bar to Raise Your Consistency(13:27) Belief Is Built Through Evidence(16:10) Why Smaller Goals Lead to Bigger Results(18:17) The Power of Stupid-Simple Wins(19:30) Personalization Over Perfection(21:11) Shame Spirals and Bouncing Back(23:27) The Role of Resilience in Rebuilding Trust(24:15) Borrow Belief When You Don't Have It(27:53) Progress Without Pressure(29:38) You Have to Get in the Pool(30:03) Taking Ownership vs. Relying on a Coach Forever(32:06) Adapting Your Plan in Messy Seasons(33:42) Build a New Default, Not a New Excuse(35:47) Identity Change Starts With Belief(37:48) Be Realistic, Not Delusional(38:09) Keep the Promises You Actually Make(39:53) The Flip: From Doubtful to UnstoppableSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show:https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

The weather has dominated life for many this month, from storms and flooding in South West England to snow and rain in parts of Scotland, flooding in Northern Ireland and strong winds and rain across Wales. Rural communities and the leader of Devon County Council have called on the government for urgent financial support because of the impact of this month's storms, particularly on roads and railways saying more frequent rough weather highlights the need for more investment. All this week we are talking sustainable systems - whether that's how we farm or how we make farming a more economically sustainable and resilient business. The University of Lincoln has been working with a Nottinghamshire farmer on an innovative project called ‘Reverse Coal', which has just won a national sustainability award. We visit Pollybell Farms to find out more about biochar.A tale of legacy, love and rare breeds: Clifford Freeman farms in Gloucestershire where he has the world's biggest herd of Gloucester cattle.

In this episode of the Innovations and Clinical Implementation podcast, hosts Dr. Lexi Gonzales and Tom Blue interview Dr. Sundeep Dugar, a pharmaceutical drug hunter with nearly 40 years of experience in small molecule discovery who serves as the co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Blue Oak Nutraceuticals. The conversation focuses on the development of Mitocatalyst, a precision-formulated epicatechin designed to mimic the mitochondrial biogenesis normally triggered by exercise. Dr. Dugar reveals his breakthrough discovery that exercise-induced Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) signal the mitochondria to produce a specific steroid—11-beta hydroxyprogesterone—and explains how Mitocatalyst utilizes nanomolar doses of epicatechin to molecularly mimic this steroid, distinguishing it from high-dose antioxidant protocols that paradoxically blunt these beneficial signals. The discussion uses the metaphor of building a "fireplace" (mitochondria) to burn "firewood" (nutrition), positioning the supplement as a critical intervention for aging patients or those unable to exercise.

Transcript:Ca: L'aire fred del matí travessava les finestres antigues del col·legi internat, situat en un racó pintoresc dels Pirineus.En: The cold morning air passed through the old windows of the boarding school, situated in a picturesque corner of the Pirineus.Ca: Clara, una jove de catorze anys, observava el paisatge cobert de neu des de la seva classe.En: Clara, a fourteen-year-old girl, observed the snow-covered landscape from her classroom.Ca: Les muntanyes reflectien la llum del sol amb una bellesa que provocava un somriure tímid a la seva cara.En: The mountains reflected the sunlight with a beauty that brought a timid smile to her face.Ca: Clara era una noia reservada, però amb una determinació oculta que només els que l'observaven de prop podien intuir.En: Clara was a reserved girl, but with a hidden determination that only those who observed her closely could sense.Ca: El seu majúscul repte era la seva asma, un company constant que sovint la feia sentir sola i vulnerable.En: Her biggest challenge was her asthma, a constant companion that often made her feel lonely and vulnerable.Ca: Aquest hivern, però, tenia una meta clara: participar en la caminada organitzada pel col·legi per final de trimestre.En: This winter, however, she had a clear goal: to participate in the hike organized by the school at the end of the term.Ca: Voldria demostrar a si mateixa i als altres que no era fràgil.En: She wanted to prove to herself and others that she was not fragile.Ca: "Mira, Clara!En: "Look, Clara!"Ca: " va cridar l'Elena, la seva amiga, mentre assenyalava el cartell de la caminada penjat al passadís.En: shouted Elena, her friend, as she pointed to the hike poster hanging in the hallway.Ca: Clara va somriure amb entusiasme, però també amb una certa ansietat.En: Clara smiled with enthusiasm, but also with a certain anxiety.Ca: En Jordi, el mestre de ciències, sabia que el clima de muntanya era dur per a algú amb asma.En: Jordi, the science teacher, knew that the mountain climate was tough for someone with asthma.Ca: "Clara, estàs segura que vols fer aquesta caminada?En: "Clara, are you sure you want to do this hike?"Ca: ", li va preguntar amb preocupació.En: he asked her with concern.Ca: "Sí, Jordi.En: "Yes, Jordi.Ca: Estic preparada.En: I am prepared.Ca: Portaré el meu inhalador i un pla per si passa res", va respondre Clara amb decisió.En: I will bring my inhaler and a plan just in case," Clara responded with determination.Ca: El dia de la caminada, el paisatge estava cobert de neu, i el grup de joves es va endinsar pel camí que serpentejava per la muntanya.En: On the day of the hike, the landscape was covered in snow, and the group of young people set off on the path that wound through the mountain.Ca: Clara seguia endavant amb pas ferm, gaudint de cada respiració d'aire fred, però conscient de les seves limitacions.En: Clara continued with a steady pace, enjoying every breath of cold air, but aware of her limitations.Ca: Tot anava bé fins que, a mig camí, Clara va sentir un pes al pit.En: Everything was going well until midway, when Clara felt a heaviness in her chest.Ca: El seu ritme respiratori es va tornar erràtic, i l'angoixa li va envair el rostre.En: Her breathing became erratic, and anxiety spread across her face.Ca: Elena va notar el canvi immediatament.En: Elena noticed the change immediately.Ca: "Jordi, Clara no pot respirar bé!En: "Jordi, Clara can't breathe well!"Ca: "El grup es va aturar.En: The group stopped.Ca: En Jordi va actuar ràpidament, reunint els alumnes mentre Elena ajudava Clara a utilitzar el seu inhalador.En: Jordi acted quickly, gathering the students while Elena helped Clara use her inhaler.Ca: Els moments es feien eterns, però amb cada alè forçat, Clara començava a recuperar-se lentament.En: The moments seemed endless, but with each labored breath, Clara began to recover slowly.Ca: Quan van tornar al col·legi, l'aire internat semblava menys opressiu que el de la muntanya.En: When they returned to the school, the air inside seemed less oppressive than that of the mountain.Ca: Clara va restar en silenci una estona, reflexionant sobre el que havia passat.En: Clara remained silent for a while, reflecting on what had happened.Ca: Entenia ara que no era feblesa acceptar les seves limitacions, sinó un senyal de saviesa.En: She now understood that it was not a weakness to accept her limitations, but a sign of wisdom.Ca: Els seus amics i professors, però, parlaven admirats de la seva valentia i del seu esforç per ser ella mateixa, malgrat les dificultats.En: Her friends and teachers, however, spoke admiringly of her bravery and effort to be herself, despite the difficulties.Ca: L'endemà, Clara, mirant la vall des del seu pupitre, va comprendre que la seva força estava en la seva perseverança i en prendre decisions encertades.En: The next day, Clara, looking at the valley from her desk, realized that her strength was in her perseverance and making wise decisions.Ca: No era menys independent per tenir cura de la seva salut.En: She was not any less independent for taking care of her health.Ca: Era al contrari, més forta.En: On the contrary, she was stronger.Ca: I així, al fred dels Pirineus, Clara va descobrir que la resiliència es troba en l'acceptació i en la cura de si mateixa, sabent que lluitar pel que volia, sempre i quan tingués cura, era el seu veritable triomf.En: And so, in the cold of the Pirineus, Clara discovered that resilience lies in acceptance and self-care, knowing that fighting for what she wanted, as long as she took care, was her true triumph.

Nick shares his story of growing up in the LDS faith, serving a mission, being excommunicated twice, losing his identity, and ultimately walking away from belief altogether.What followed was years of anger, depression, shame, and a deep search for meaning that eventually led him back to something unexpected: self-love.This conversation isn't about attacking religion or defending atheism. It's about what happens when the systems you relied on to define your worth fall apart, and you're forced to rebuild from the ground up.Nick talks openly about divorce, suicidal thoughts, depression, therapy, men's work, brotherhood, and the daily practices that helped him learn how to keep promises to himself.They discuss why self-love can't be outsourced to religion, relationships, or self-help, how integrity is built one decision at a time, and why healing requires honesty, support, and personal responsibility. This is a raw, vulnerable conversation about shame, growth, and becoming someone you respect.

In this Mindfulness in Action episode, I'm sharing a spontaneous trail-side reflection on something that's been very present for me lately: how we manage drive without burning out and how we stay truly connected in a world that keeps telling us to “go bigger.”I talk about rethinking social media impact, why I'm increasingly prioritizing local and real-time connection, and how and asking better questions can completely change the quality of our relationships. I also share some simple practices I've been using, like voice memos and short phone calls, to stay meaningfully connected without adding more pressure or noise.Synchronous, human connection matters so much for feeling valued. That's why I wanted to explore how curiosity helps us move beyond surface-level interaction, and why small, intentional shifts can have a bigger impact than trying to reach everyone, everywhere.I close with a short mindfulness practice you can do anywhere to help you reconnect with your body, reflect on when you feel most connected to others, and take one small step toward more meaningful connection in your everyday life.You'll learn to:Ground into your body, even while in motionReflect on when you feel most connected to othersIdentify one small step you can take to create deeper, more meaningful connection offlineOther meditations:– Slowing Down the Rush– How to Regulate Your Emotions for Resilience and Performance– How to Combat Self-Criticism--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

What if the biggest barrier to the outcomes we crave... is us? Nikki and David Gregory pull no punches as they unpack how we often create the very problems we're frustrated by. From a disastrous family lunch to missed health goals and tense business meetings, they share vulnerable stories that hit close to home. This episode isn't about blame, but about the power to shift our mindset, manifest better outcomes, and pivot with purpose when things go sideways. With practical tools and honest reflection, this conversation challenges us all to stop playing checkers with our lives and start playing chess. Because betterment begins when we own our part and choose better, one move at a time.   Additional Resources: Follow Addicted to Betterment wherever you listen to podcasts!

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Dr. Andrew Wittman, former Marine, police officer, federal agent, and leadership coach, about his new book Inner Armor: Perpetual Resilience. If you lead projects and teams, you already know pressure is coming. The real question is what you do when it arrives. Andrew explains why the brain can work against you under stress, and how the questions you ask yourself shape the options you can see. You'll learn the Two Minute Rule and how it can help you shift from "we can't" thinking into problem-solving mode. Andy and Andrew also explore how filters and assumptions influence what leaders notice, why limitation can be more dangerous than fear, and what it looks like to build a First Responder Mindset so you can hold your poise when stakeholders push back. They close with a powerful discussion on identity and a practical look at raising resilient kids. If you're looking for insights on leading with clarity and composure when the stakes are high, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The first thing you have to understand about the brain is that it is the original search engine. Like it has to answer a question." "The brain knows that you're a genius. Even if you don't consciously recognize that you're a genius, your brain knows it. It'll never go against your genius self. So if you say things like, I don't know how we could do this, your brain says, 'Oh, we don't know.' So it stops searching completely for any answer." "Just for two minutes, pretend that you could do it. It's amazing that your brain will just go to work and find like 15 ways you actually could do it, whereas seconds ago, we thought we couldn't." "When bad news happens, get happy. Whenever you hear bad news, you should get happy because this is your biggest opportunity to have the greatest comeback ever." "My question is, no matter what the bad news is, I'm going to ask myself this: how can I use this to my greatest possible advantage?" "I want to know what the holes in this project are. I don't want to hear rainbows and sunshine, right? Positive thinking will get you killed quicker than negative thinking." "We take in 11 million bits of information per second. Every second we see, hear, feel, touch, 11 million bits. Only 126 bits go to our conscious mind for action, which means we're filtering out 99.9% of all that information." "When you walk into a room, and you think no one supports you, you're going to see every cue that you could find to back that up. And you'll discard anything that would go against that." "The world is always ready to define you if you don't define yourself." "My identity: I'm a man of excellence who always keeps his word. I aspire to always keep my word. And so everything that I do is pre-decided by that identity." "Excellence is if I give my best effort, I could sleep tonight." "Welcome to Planet Earth, everybody has to deal with the externals. It's the great equalizer. We all have to deal with it. You're not special. I hate to tell you, CEO, you're not special." "Those pressure situations, they don't create your habits. They actually reveal them."

Episode 353: Resilience Isn't Optional: Tools Every Nonprofit Leader Needs Now (Russell Harvey)SUMMARYNonprofit leaders are operating in a world where change is constant - and the pressure to react quickly can undermine clarity, trust, and team stability. In this episode, Russell Harvey explains why resilience is a leadership capability (not a personality trait) and how leaders can strengthen it without adding more overwhelm. Russell introduces the VUCA framework (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) alongside the leadership responses that help teams navigate it (Vision, Understanding, Clarity, Agility). He also shares his Resilience Wheel - seven connected elements leaders can develop personally and organizationally, including purpose, adaptability, support networks, meaning, and energy. Throughout, Russell emphasizes reflective practice as a practical discipline: pausing regularly to identify what's working, what isn't, and what to do next - so leaders and teams can “spring forward with learning” rather than simply trying to bounce back.ABOUT RUSSELLRussell Harvey is a leadership coach and facilitator based in Leeds, England, and the founder of The Resilience Coach. He works with senior leaders, teams, and organizations across sectors - including the nonprofit and third sector - helping them lead themselves and others well in a “full-on” world shaped by constant change. Russell's approach blends practical frameworks (VUCA and the Resilience Wheel) with core leadership behaviors: delegating to strengths, removing blockages that prevent performance, building resilient teams, and committing to lifelong personal growth.RESOURCES & LINKSThe Resilience CoachResilience Wheel (Russell's framework + related posts)Russell Harvey on LinkedInBook recommendation: Humankind by Rutger BregmanFollow Your Path to Nonprofit LeadershipLearn more about the PMA & Armstrong McGuire merger

Adversity and grief are universal aspects of life. Most of us will encounter a form of trauma that triggers a survival response, anchoring the mind in past pain. However, this physiological loop does not have to be a life sentence. By cultivating resilience, we can navigate through the overwhelm and move toward post-traumatic growth, where it is possible to rediscover a profound sense of happiness and joy. To reframe how we think about trauma and post-traumatic growth, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with MC McDonald, a research professor and life coach specializing in trauma psychology and philosophy. MC describes the physiological survival mechanisms at the core of the body's trauma response and the benefits of post-traumatic growth. She offers insights about the in-depth research that is the foundation of her book, The Joy Reset: Six Ways Trauma Steals Happiness and How to Win It Back. Like what you're hearing?

Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.

Your butt is not about aesthetics. It is a longevity organ that directly impacts metabolism, brain optimization, resilience, and how long you stay strong as you age. In this episode, you'll learn why strength training and protein intake matter more than body fat percentage, how mitochondria drive human performance and recovery, and why building muscle protects your brain, stabilizes mood, and supports long-term longevity. This conversation reframes biohacking, anti-aging, and health from weight loss to muscle span, the length of time you live with strong, functional skeletal muscle. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Gabrielle Lyon, an accomplished physician and New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well, and author of the upcoming The Forever Strong Playbook, releasing January 27, 2026. Dr. Lyon pioneered the Muscle-Centric Medicine® approach, which places muscle at the center of disease prevention, metabolic health, and true vitality. She has trained elite athletes, military operatives, and public figures, while also living this philosophy at home as a mother of two with her husband, a retired Navy SEAL. Together, they break down why intermuscular fat may matter more than body fat percentage, how skeletal muscle drives insulin sensitivity and lowers inflammation, and why becoming physically stronger improves brain function and neuroplasticity. They explore protein needs across the lifespan, fasting, ketosis, carnivore-style nutrition, supplements, sleep optimization, and the real tradeoffs of GLP-1 drugs, including the risk of accelerated muscle loss if strength and protein are neglected. The conversation also covers mindset, hormesis, and why physical resilience creates emotional regulation and clearer decision-making in a world increasingly shaped by AI and convenience. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, longevity, mitochondria, neuroplasticity, nootropics, metabolism, functional medicine, anti-aging strategies, supplements, and living Smarter Not Harder, ideally with a cup of Danger Coffee in hand. You'll Learn: • Why your glutes and skeletal muscle are critical drivers of longevity and brain health • Why intermuscular fat can matter more than body fat percentage for metabolic dysfunction • How strength training improves neuroplasticity, cognition, and emotional resilience • Why protein needs increase with age and why outdated limits can hold you back • What GLP-1 drugs get right, where they fail, and how to protect muscle span • Why progressive stimulus beats lifting heavy for long-term strength and injury prevention • How sleep optimization and recovery support mitochondria and human performance • How building muscle creates clarity, resilience, and better decision-making Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.
