There are things that happened to you that weren't your fault. Maybe your dad wasn't there. Maybe no one modeled strength, discipline, or direction. Maybe you were handed confusion instead of clarity and drift instead of standards. But while it may not have been your fault, it is your responsibility. And the moment you understand that is the moment your life begins to change. Today, my guest Frank Schwartz (Dark Helmet in the F3 Community, and I talk about what it means to stop blaming, stop guessing, and start leading. We'll unpack why so many men feel disconnected from purpose, how to build direction through fitness, fellowship, and faith, and why your community needs you to set the standard - not apologize for it. This isn't about shame. It's about ownership. And ownership is where power begins.

What does it mean to say trail running is for everyone — when not everyone feels safe at the start line?In this deeply honest and urgent conversation, Corrine sits down with trail runner and immigration attorney Carolina Rubio-MacWright to talk about what's happening right now in immigrant communities — and why our sport cannot pretend it's separate from the political reality of the world we live in.Carolina shares what it's like carrying her residency card on runs, fielding messages from athletes asking whether it's safe to race, and helping race directors develop emergency plans for potential ICE raids.She speaks candidly about what meaningful action actually looks like — from buddy systems and mutual aid to card-writing campaigns for detained families.This episode is not abstract. It's about real runners. Real families. Real fear. And real responsibility.As Carolina reminds us, silence benefits the status quo. Action builds community.Feisty Strong Retreat in Atlanta - April 17-19, 2026: https://feisty.co/events/feisty-strong-retreat-atlanta/@feisty_media@trail.society

This week's episode moves between practical business advice and bigger industry conversations.The discussion covers managing lead flow properly (and why most coaches struggle with nurturing, not generating leads), how to create consistent conversations through structured outreach, and why simply “doing more posts” isn't always the answer during a launch.There's a deeper conversation around why the PT industry isn't centralised or properly regulated — and why that's unlikely to change due to low entry barriers and revenue-driven systems. The conclusion? Responsibility sits with the individual coach to raise their own standards.The episode also explores when to outsource (and why most coaches try to outsource too early), whether buying other coaches' programmes is a smart move, and what actually counts as long-term achievement in business.It finishes with details on the upcoming Connected Coach intake a six-month coaching development programme focused purely on improving coaching ability, confidence, retention, and delivery.00:39 – Academy capacity & what happens when it's full02:11 – Managing a high volume of leads properly07:10 – Why the PT industry isn't regulated11:43 – Biggest achievement so far14:28 – How to generate more conversations (KPIs & outreach)18:56 – Quarterly events: who they're for19:32 – Is 5 emails + 5 posts enough for a launch?22:02 – When to outsource (and when not to)26:37 – Should you buy other coaches' programmes?29:48 – The Connected Coach intake (what it is & who it's for)

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we step back from Justin's survivor story and examine the pattern beneath it. Justin believed in partnership. He leaned into responsibility, tried to stabilize tension, and carried the weight of keeping everything together. Over time, those strengths slowly shifted into over-functioning — where effort replaced evaluation, and stability depended increasingly on him alone. In this episode, we explore: how rapid commitment and shared responsibility can crowd out clarity why capable, dependable partners often stay longer in unstable dynamics how accusations and instability condition self-monitoring the illusion of control in relationships and how over-functioning can mask structural imbalance Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.me Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Maybe it's time to surrender a tough situation, or to “let” people be who they're going to be. But how in the world does that happen?

Last July, we brought Talking Taiwan to the 2025 Taiwanese American Conference, West Coast. While we were there, I sat down to speak with Dr. Shih-Fen Chen (陳時奮), who's also been known by his pen name Wēngdáruì (翁達瑞). Dr. Chen is Professor Emeritus at Ivey Business School, and a Professor at Western Washington University. He's an outspoken political commentator, self-described as a scholar with a sense of responsibility to reveal the truth. This episode is sponsored in part by the Pacific Times (太平洋時報) Related Links:
This episode centers on a powerful, foundational question: what truly anchors our faith when the world feels uncertain and unsettled?Josh and Caitlin reflect on recent conversations with close friends and family members who asked where their testimony and hope come from. The hosts share openly that the core of real endurance is not built on perfect circumstances, successful businesses, or even constant answers from God. Instead, it grows from knowing one eternal truth: we are sons and daughters of Heavenly Parents.This episode is sincere, hopeful, and practical. It reminds listeners that while life may feel heavier each year, the love of God never changes. He is patient with us, involved in our lives, and invites us to keep pressing forward—faithfully and imperfectly.Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/enduretotheendpod/Zunex Pest Control: https://www.instagram.com/zunexpestco/00:03 – Podcast welcome and introduction00:34 – Where Josh's faith stems from01:06 – The hinge point of testimony01:20 – How faith gets us through hard times02:13 – Recognizing a relationship with God03:23 – Alignment with Jesus Christ brings clarity04:09 – Grace versus perfectionism04:53 – God's nature never changes05:28 – Identity as children of God06:12 – Strained earthly relationships07:41 – Sharing personal stories08:10 – High school infatuation example10:16 – Idealizing people beyond reality11:05 – Josh's mission turning point12:26 – Learning to trust God personally13:14 – Ether 12:27 and weakness15:28 – Scripture: Rich young ruler17:04 – Giving God our whole heart18:30 – Faith forged in painful moments19:24 – Over-idealization and identity21:24 – Gratitude for God leading us22:15 – Healing through boundaries27:01 – Meekness explained30:12 – Responsibility to be good to others33:20 – Teaching children correctly34:39 – True definition of meekness36:29 – Scripture: Romans 8:16-1738:36 – God's love for all people41:03 – Think Celestial segment44:41 – Final testimony45:53 – Closing encouragement
The Emergency Management Network PodcastEpisode Title: Authority, Responsibility, and the Emergency Manager's DilemmaHosts: Todd DeVoe and Dan ScottIn this episode of The Emergency Management Network Podcast, Todd DeVoe and Dan Scott take a deep dive into one of the profession's defining tensions: the gap between authority and responsibility. Emergency managers are expected to coordinate complex systems, anticipate cascading failures, and help guide communities through crisis, yet they often operate without direct command authority over the agencies responsible for action. That reality creates a professional dilemma that is rarely discussed openly but felt daily across the field.Todd and Dan explore how responsibility often finds the emergency manager before authority does. When disaster strikes, communities look for coordination, clarity, and leadership, not organizational charts. The conversation examines how emergency managers become accountable for outcomes they do not fully control, and how influence, credibility, and trust often matter more than formal power in driving results.The discussion moves beyond operations into philosophy and ethics. Drawing on ideas from Aristotle, Plato, and Stoic thought, the episode reflects on what it means to carry responsibility simply because you understand risk and consequence. The more an emergency manager sees the interdependencies within a community, the harder it becomes to step back and treat preparedness as someone else's job. Responsibility becomes a moral obligation, not just a professional duty.Todd and Dan also talk candidly about the personal weight that comes with this role. The profession often lives in the space between expectation and authority, and that space can produce both purpose and strain. They explore how burnout emerges when responsibility expands without structural authority, and how relationships, communication, and long-term trust building become the real levers of leadership.The episode reframes authority in emergency management as relational rather than positional. It is built over time through competence, consistency, and the ability to align people and systems before the crisis begins. The conversation highlights how emergency managers shape decisions, influence direction, and steward coordination, even when they are not the ones issuing orders.Throughout the discussion, Todd and Dan return to practice. Governance, culture, and institutional design all shape how authority is shared and how responsibility is carried. The profession continues to evolve, but the dilemma remains a constant. Emergency managers operate at the intersection of policy, operations, and ethics, balancing public expectations with the realities of fragmented authority.This episode challenges listeners to reflect on their own role in that tension. Authority may not always sit in the emergency manager's office, but responsibility often does. The question becomes how to lead effectively within that reality, how to build influence where command is limited, and how to continue stewarding preparedness in systems that are never fully aligned.Todd and Dan close with a reminder that the work of emergency management begins long before the incident and continues long after the headlines fade. The profession is not defined by command, but by stewardship, trust, and the quiet work of aligning people and systems toward resilience. This is a public episode.

You know that conversation that starts with one thing and somehow ends with both of you feeling terrible? This episode is the antidote to that. My husband Rabbi Yonasan Reiser and I speak about asking for what you need in marriage, and how you handle it when the answer is no. We role play it. Twice. The difference is striking. If you've ever swallowed a need because you were afraid of how he'd react, this one's for you.
When we make mistakes or take a wrong turn, it's understandable that our first move might be to blame others, or try to defend ourselves, or do all we can to avoid the feelings of shame or disappointment that come our way. What those responses do, though, is close us off to our human capacity to learn and to be creative in the midst of our difficulties. So what does it take to turn towards the 'holes we fall into' with a kinder, more expansive spirit, and to grow ourselves a little bit bigger so we can respond? And, perhaps most importantly, what does it take to do this not on our own, but together with others?In our conversation we talk specifically about Turning Towards Life - Live - Season 2, which begins in March 2026.This week's Turning Towards Life is hosted as always by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.Episode Overview00:00 Introduction to Turning Towards Life03:01 On Reflection and Learning05:46 Exploring Portia Nelson's Poem09:11 Personal Reflections on Mistakes and Relationships11:58 The Importance of Responsibility and Kindness15:07 Navigating Relational Patterns and Habits17:56 The Power of Choice and Agency20:53 Understanding the Dynamics of Relationships23:50 Finding Purpose in Conversations26:46 The Role of Community in Growth29:54 Conclusion and Invitation to Join the JourneyThis is Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living.

What happens when faith confronts us with responsibility we’d rather avoid? We get defensive – just like the priests of Jesus’ time. That’s what Revs. Trudy and Brittany discuss this first episode in our Lenten Series: The People of the Passion. They start with Matthew 21:33-45, the Parable of the Tenants. Often read as a story about religious leaders rejecting Jesus, the parable is more layered – and more uncomfortable – than we tend to admit. Why does Jesus tell such a violent story? Why does the landowner keep extending grace? And why do the religious leaders get so defensive? Perhaps the answer to the questions is because the parable isn’t about Jesus defending his authority – it’s about us. Join the female pastors of First UMC of San Diego as they wrestle with: Why we should resist easy interpretation of Biblical parables The power dynamics between empire, authority, and faith Why grace feels unreasonable – and how to maintain hope when we struggle to extend it to others What defensiveness reveals about who we serve Lent invites us to honest self-examination. This week we ask: What makes you question authority? How can you question authority in ways that reflect God’s nonviolence and benevolence? How do you not become defensive when you’re being held accountable? Join us as we consider whether we are living as grateful tenants or defensive ones. Continue the conversation by reflecting with someone you trust, or connecting with the Perspectives community online through Patreon and in person at the weekly Convergence Discussion Group.

The elder sister of the house, Megan Hansen, releases on Numbers 34:1-35:8! Learning how to be worthy of the inheritance that we are freely given.
David Roberts spent nearly four decades in finance—starting on Wall Street in 1983 and joining Angelo Gordon in 1993, when the firm was a 15-person shop managing about $300M. By the time he left, the firm managed roughly $50B in assets, and David contributed to that growth by helping build and launch several of the firm's businesses. After retiring, he created Sparks From Culture, a widely read Substack, which provides its nearly 9,000 readers with “weekly personal essays on wealth, status, and family from someone with generational wealth, writing with transparency.”Our host, Ross Overline, is one of David's readers.In this conversation, David and Ross explore the hardest questions finance leaders rarely discuss publicly: How do you know when you have “enough”? Why does comparison keep resetting our definition of success? What are the risks of wealth concentration?They discuss inequality, philanthropy, competing views of capitalism's current state, and how greed often shows up as self-justification. David makes the case for generosity as a stabilizing force in society—and shares how he's translated these beliefs into real, high-impact giving.The episode closes with a simple but unforgettable principle: the butterfly effect—small acts of generosity can change a life more than you'll ever know.Meet David David Roberts is a retired Partner of Angelo Gordon, where he joined in 1993, helping build and scale investment platforms across real estate, structured credit, and net lease. After retiring in 2022, he briefly served in public service as Senior Advisor to Maryland's Secretary of Commerce.In recent years, David has become a thoughtful public voice through his Substack newsletter Sparks From Culture (no payment necessary). All proceeds from paid subscriptions are donated to the Robin Hood Foundation, reflecting David and his wife Debbie's long-standing commitment to impact-driven giving.He holds a B.S. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Whether you are struggling with depression, addiction, or seeking motivation, Justin's story is a roadmap for anyone feeling lost in the dark. "I was the youngest heavyweight in the country, and I was losing the only fight that mattered." In this powerful episode Kati speaks with Justin Wren for a raw conversation on mental health, resilience, and the recovery journey. Justin pulls back the curtain on a life of extreme highs and devastating lows, from the "merciless" bullying he faced as a child in Texas to the secret OxyContin addiction that haunted his professional MMA career. We dive deep into the "living nightmare" of substance abuse, where Justin managed a massive intake of pills while fighting on the world's biggest stage. He shares the heartbreaking moment he hit rock bottom after missing his best friend's wedding and the moment in Tulum that gave him a second chance at life. Justin also discusses his work with Fight for the Forgotten, his nonprofit dedicated to providing clean water and land rights to the Mbuti Pygmy people in Uganda and Eastern Congo. He shares the beautiful, life-altering lessons he learned about community, grief, and Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) that helped him find true healing.

You know that feeling when you say, “He helps.” He does chores. He shows up. He's not checked out. And yet… you're still exhausted. If that's you, you are not ungrateful. You are not asking for too much. And you are not broken. In this episode, JoAnn sits down with comedian, actor, and author Jordan Carlos to talk about invisible work in marriage — what it really is, why “helping” still leaves one partner carrying the mental load, and what true responsibility sharing actually looks like in everyday family life. Because the problem isn't whether the dishes get done. The problem is who is still managing the fact that they need to get done. Jordan shares candidly about his own marriage, how COVID forced him to see the invisible labor his wife was carrying, and the mindset shift that moved him from “assistant” to actual partner. This conversation is honest, funny, and practical — and it will help you rethink how responsibility lives in your home. What We Cover in This Episode 1. What Invisible Work Really Is Invisible work isn't just chores. It's tracking schedules, noticing when you're low on toothpaste, remembering spirit days, and managing the emotional temperature of the house. When one partner carries the mental load — even if the other “helps” — burnout and resentment quietly build. 2. Why “Helping” Keeps One Person in Charge When someone helps, there is still a manager. Delegating Noticing Reminding Carrying responsibility if something falls through Jordan talks about the moment he realized he was “redundant” in his own home — and how that realization changed everything. 3. The Resentment Signal Resentment doesn't show up overnight. It builds in the sighs, the tension, and the feeling of being alone in daily life. Small shifts — like doing things without being asked — can dramatically lower that emotional temperature. 4. Responsibility Sharing vs. 50/50 What's equal isn't always fair. And what's fair isn't always equal. True partnership isn't about splitting every task down the middle. It's about shared ownership. It's about both adults seeing the home as theirs to steward. Jordan shares how stepping into responsibility — not waiting for instructions — shifted his marriage in meaningful ways. 5. Why Self-Care Supports Partnership When both partners take care of themselves, they show up better in the relationship. Responsibility sharing doesn't mean depletion. It means two adults who are capable, aware, and engaged. Why This Episode Matters So many overwhelmed moms feel guilty for wanting more support. “He does a lot already.” “I don't want to nag.” “Maybe this is just marriage.” But when invisible work stays invisible, emotional disconnection grows. This episode gives language to what you may have been feeling for years. It also gives you a starting place — not to control your partner, but to shift how responsibility is shared in your home. Partnership isn't about doing more. It's about no longer carrying it alone.

If mealtimes feel heavier than they should, this episode is going to make a lot click. I sit down with dietitians Diana and Dani to unpack how diet culture quietly slips into everyday parenting and shapes how kids see food, their bodies, and themselves. Their new book offers a roadmap for raising kids who trust their bodies and feel safe at the table, and our conversation goes far beyond picky eating. We talk about the language we use, the pressure we don't realize we're applying, and how small daily moments build a child's long-term relationship with food. What we discuss: Why diet culture starts affecting kids as early as preschool The “invisible curriculum” kids absorb from our modeling, messaging, and moments What food positivity actually means and how it goes beyond food neutrality How the Division of Responsibility supports trust and self-regulation Common ways parents accidentally misapply feeding advice Why labeling foods as good or bad backfires long term The connection between pressure, restriction, and future dieting patterns Reframing picky eaters as “learning eaters” Why fewer than 5 percent of so-called picky eaters are truly nutrient deficient How values like control vs connection influence feeding decisions Small shifts parents can make to protect a child's relationship with food To connect with Diana Rice follow her on Instagram @anti.diet.kids and check out all her resources at https://tinyseednutrition.com/ Follow Dani Lebowitz at @kid.food.explorers and visit her website: https://kidfoodexplorers.com/ Their new book “Food Positivity: How to Ditch Diet Culture and Talk to Kids About Food“ is available for pre-order https://www.amazon.com/Food-Positivity-Ditch-Culture-About/dp/1394335202?&linkCode=sl1&tag=dianakrice-20&linkId=cb9fdb7069f2f96a3f795cbd75485914&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl Enjoy Diana Rice's first episode, “Your kid doesn't need a diet“ on the PedsDocTalk podcast. https://pedsdoctalk.com/podcast/your-kid-doesnt-need-a-diet-approaching-conversations-about-our-childs-weight-and-health-in-a-productive-way/ 00:00 Welcome + What Is Food Positivity? 02:29 Meet Diana and Dani 04:24 How Diet Culture Starts in Early Childhood 06:09 The Invisible Curriculum: Modeling, Messaging, Moments 07:59 Food Positivity vs Food Neutrality 14:43 Division of Responsibility Made Simple 18:59 Why Red Light, Green Light Backfires 20:15 Felt Safety, Trust, and Confident Food Leadership 33:22 Rethinking “Picky Eating” as Learning Eating 38:10 Pressure, Restriction, and Self-Regulation 42:01 Small Shifts to Protect Your Child's Relationship with Food 48:43 Where to Get the Book + Final Takeaways Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

Chain of Learning: Empowering Continuous Improvement Change Leaders
What does it really take to lead transformation as responsibility grows?At some point, leadership stops being about doing the improvement work or having the right answers. For operational leaders and change practitioners alike, the work moves to holding the system—people, priorities, and consequences—and helping others learn how to do the same.In this episode of Chain of Learning, I'm joined by Carlos Scholz, CEO of Catalysis, to explore the critical shift leaders must make to enable systemic, lasting organizational change.Carlos shares his journey from technically trained engineer in manufacturing, to transformational change leader in healthcare leading a team of continuous improvement practitioners, to operations leader, and now CEO. Across these roles, he's learned that transformation doesn't fail because leaders don't care or aren't trying, but because we often rush to outcomes and skip the systems-level and behavioral maturity required to sustain them.This conversation highlights a critical truth: leadership is practice. It's not a role or a title, it's how you intentionally show up and get better, day after day.Together, we explore what really changes as leadership responsibility and organizational complexity increase, how leaders have to change their own behavior, and how influence shifts when the work is no longer about doing improvement, but about developing leaders who can own the system.In this episode, we explore:Why leadership becomes less about expertise and more about intentional practice as scope and responsibility expandWhat changes when you move from leading through influence to owning the system through positional authority and the consequences that come with itHow identity and perceived value shape resistance to change, including your ownWhy skipping organizational and behavioral maturity undermines reliability, even with strong intentionsHow repositioning improvement teams from doers to coaches helps leaders change their behavior and allows transformation to scaleIf you're navigating your own growth as a change leader—or supporting leaders in truly owning their system—this conversation offers language and perspective to help you lead with greater impact.ABOUT MY GUEST:Carlos Scholz is the CEO of Catalysis, a mission-driven organization advancing people-centered, value-based healthcare. A former manufacturing engineer and healthcare operations and change leader at Kaiser Permanente and NYC Health + Hospitals, he brings deep experience driving system-wide Lean and continuous improvement transformation and developing leaders at scale.

They discuss how design shows up during disruption and rebuilding, why resilience and smarter material choices are becoming non-negotiable, and how industry platforms like WestEdge are adapting to support designers who want to do meaningful, relevant work without sacrificing business sustainability. This is not about burnout, martyrdom, or working for free — it's about clarity, education, and community. If you've been feeling the pull toward more impact but aren't sure how to balance that with running a healthy business, this episode offers a grounded, honest perspective on what it means to be a designer right now — and how to step into a bigger role with intention. What you'll learn in this episode: - Why design has consequences far beyond aesthetics - How designers can contribute meaningfully during rebuilding and recovery - What resilience, sustainability, and smarter material choices look like in practice - Why in-person events and industry platforms matter more than ever - How designers can expand their impact without diluting their business model - Why education and community are strategic advantages — not “extras”
Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
Why do so many relationships, despite the best intentions, end up stuck in cycles of hurt, disappointment, or disconnection? We search for "the one," hope for a soulmate to fulfill us, and cling to romantic ideals—even as we find ourselves repeating old patterns and feeling powerless when things get tough. The real challenge, it seems, isn't just finding love, but learning how to nurture it consciously and responsibly. What if the secret isn't about changing others, but transforming how we relate, both to ourselves and to our loved ones? In this episode, discover how to break free from the unconscious habits that sabotage intimacy, shift out of victim mindsets, and reclaim your personal power within relationships. Learn why conscious love is an ongoing practice—not just a feeling—and explore actionable principles for moving past reactivity into mature, collaborative connection. Through insights on emotional intelligence, responsibility, healing past wounds, and embracing vulnerability, you'll gain tools to create deeper, more authentic bonds and turn your relationship into a dynamic space for growth.

Actor, creator, and entrepreneur Luke Cook joins Gabby Reece for an honest, funny, and deeply reflective conversation about creativity, rejection, faith, and building a meaningful life.Luke shares his unconventional journey from growing up in Australia as the youngest of five, to chasing comedy and acting in Hollywood — including seven years of near-constant auditions with little visible success. He speaks candidly about rejection, identity, and why loving the craft itself matters more than external validation.The conversation moves fluidly between creativity and discipline, faith and doubt, ego and humility. Luke reflects on fatherhood, marriage, and the grounding power of family — as well as the importance of play, presence, and not taking success (or failure) too seriously.They also explore Luke's entrepreneurial ventures, including building a “no-weird-stuff” protein shake brand, creative coaching for founders, and using humor to communicate without shame. Throughout, Luke emphasizes curiosity, integrity, and joy as essential ingredients for longevity — in work and in life.This episode is about staying in the game, trusting the process, and remembering that success isn't a destination — it's how you live along the way.⏱️ CHAPTERS- Intro & meeting Luke- Growing up the youngest of five- Early love of performance and comedy- Discipline, training, and loving the craft- Moving to LA & chasing the dream- Years of auditions and rejection- Ego, ambition, and humility- Faith, doubt, and finding a north star- Marriage, fatherhood, and family grounding- Creativity vs. external validation- Building a values-driven business- Content, comedy, and honest communication- Relationships, partnership, and play- What success really looks like- Staying joyful in uncertainty- Closing reflections WHAT STAYED WITH MELoving the work matters more than loving the outcome.Rejection doesn't end careers — quitting does.Discipline follows passion.When you care deeply enough, showing up becomes natural.Ego needs humility to stay healthy.Confidence fuels performance; humility keeps you grounded.Family changes the definition of success.Responsibility, presence, and play become the real markers.Faith doesn't eliminate doubt.It gives you somewhere to return when things feel unstable.Joy is a choice.Especially when the path forward isn't clear.WHY IT'S WORTH SLOWING DOWN FOR THISWe live in a culture that celebrates instant success and overnight wins — often ignoring the long, invisible seasons of work that come before them.Luke's story is a reminder that staying in the game matters.That creativity doesn't expire.And that meaning is built through patience, integrity, and connection — not applause.If you're navigating uncertainty, rejection, or a season of waiting, this conversation offers perspective worth sitting with.FIND LUKELuke CookInstagram & TikTok: https://www.instagram.com/thelukecookProtein brand: https://getshakewell.comFOR MORE ON GABBYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabbyreece/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gabbyreeceofficialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GabbyReeceThe Gabby Reece Show Podcast: Available on all major platformsEpisode sponsors:Get up to 30% off OneSkin with the code GABBYREECE at https://www.oneskin.co/GABBYREECE #oneskinpodDon't let another year go by feeling less than your best.

For nearly a decade, his work has centered on helping driven, burnt-out achievers unwind the emotional and belief patterns that run their lives.Identity under pressure reveals how much of who we are was shaped long before we had a choice, with unconscious beliefs tracing back far beyond our own lived experiences. Nervous system regulation, money stories, and lineage show up as an interconnected web that influences how daily life is experienced and navigated. Addiction and self-abandonment surface as signals of deeper disconnection. Responsibility for the inner world becomes less about fixing what's wrong and more about seeing what's beneath the surface.This episode speaks to anyone sensing that forward movement isn't about more tactics, but by understanding the forces shaping personal choices, accumulated stress, and the kind of freedom that feels earned rather than chased.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:30] Breaking down the old identity: the practices Josh used for transformation[19:02] Is plant medicine a necessity when it comes to transformation?[34:07] Getting to your root beliefs with the BTFA practice: a breathwork walkthrough[58:45] Traditional talk therapy vs somatic approaches[01:11:23] Understanding addiction as disconnection and the trap of trading one addiction for another[01:27:05] Facing your biggest fear in real-time: how Alec nearly shut down his podcast[01:41:24] Emotional epigenetics and unconsciously passing patterns down through generations[01:53:58] The single most powerful practice: emotional inventoryRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Health Freedom for Humanity with Josh Trent | Spotify or AppleResources Mentioned:The Great Unlearn with Cal Callahan | WebsiteFearful Memories Passed Down to Mouse Descendants by Callaway E. | ArticleSelf Liberation Blueprint + The Liberated Life Tribe Free Community:The Self Liberation Blueprint is a 10-day jumpstart and free tribe access that's perfect for the person who feels stuck, and they don't know why.
