What if everything we've been taught about health, disease, and the human body needs to be reconsidered? In this paradigm-shifting episode of The Self Esteem and Confidence Mindset, we sit down with Dr. Thomas Cowan—well-known author, speaker, and former physician with over 34 years of medical practice—to explore his common-sense, holistic approach to health and wellness that challenges conventional medical thinking.Dr. Cowan is the author of eight groundbreaking books including "The Contagion Myth," "Breaking the Spell," "Cancer and the New Biology of Water," and "Human Heart, Cosmic Heart." As a founding board member and former vice president of the Weston A. Price Foundation, he shares decades of wisdom on how understanding the true nature of health, water, and the human body can transform your wellbeing and confidence in your body's innate healing abilities.You can find more from Dr Tom here:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/

Mitch Bach talks with Jenn Barbee, co-founder of Destination Innovate, about the real inner workings of DMOs, those three letters that every tour operator has an opinion about but few actually understand. Jenn has spent 30 years inside destination marketing, from a shoestring US Department of Commerce team trying to promote America on a $50,000 budget to her current work closing the gap between DMOs and the small businesses they are supposed to serve. The conversation covers how DMOs get funded, why they sit on valuable visitor data, and what tour operators can actually do to get beyond the dead-end website listing.It goes further than the typical "how to work with your tourism board" advice. Jenn and Mitch get into the identity crisis hitting tour operators and DMOs at the same time: both are losing ground to OTA platforms, both need direct guest relationships, and neither is building enough local partnerships to fight back. They talk short-term rental hosts as untapped referral channels, guerrilla marketing tactics that cost almost nothing, and the hard truth about inbound tourism to the US heading into World Cup and the 250th anniversary.Key TakeawaysYour DMO has expensive visitor data that could sharpen your product, pricing, and ads, but they will not hand it over unless you ask. 06:14 – 07:19 DMOs invest in data about visitor appetite, competing markets, and traveler clusters by neighborhood and interest type. That information rarely trickles down to small tour businesses because DMOs feel pressure to contextualize it or fear judgment on their numbers. Frame your ask around strengthening the destination's tourism product, not just helping your business, and you stand a real chance of getting access to insights you could never afford on your own.The single best first move with your DMO is to find the community manager and introduce yourself with specific visitor language, not a sales pitch. 11:48 – 12:58 Audit your tour product against what the destination website is promoting in terms of itineraries or themes, then reach out where you see a match or a gap. Lead with collaboration. Once you have that baseline, you can inch toward higher-value asks like data sharing or co-promotion, but only after you have earned the relationship through showing up and being useful.Survey your customers about whether they booked the experience before the hotel, then bring that data to the DMO. 56:29 – 56:39 If you can show a DMO that your tour attracted bed nights, you are speaking their only real language: occupancy and bed tax justification. Most tour operators never collect this data, and most DMOs have never seen it from a small business. It positions you as a strategic asset rather than another name on a listings page.DMOs are shifting from marketing organizations to stewardship organizations, and that tension is something you can use. 08:50 – 09:59 Many DMOs now describe themselves as "destination management" or "stewardship" organizations, moving toward what is right for their communities. Their boards and bed tax collectors still want heads-in-beds KPIs. If your tour disperses visitors into underserved neighborhoods, supports local businesses, or tells a more honest destination story, you become the kind of partner that helps a DMO justify its new direction to the people holding the purse strings.Getting listed on the DMO website is a win. Stop underestimating it. 13:10 – 13:45 Many operators treat a listing as table stakes, but some DMOs do not even offer that without a paid membership. If you are listed, follow up by tagging the DMO constantly on social media and feeding them content they can reshare within their brand guidelines. The social media managers have more flexibility than the executive staff and will amplify content that feels fresh or on-brand.If your local DMO is stuck promoting only the marquee attractions, skip them and go to the state level. 17:38 – 18:32 A DMO locked into bread-and-butter promotion is usually in protection mode, worried about occupancy numbers. State tourism offices have embraced experience-driven programming and are more open to working with operators who tell a broader story. For most small tour businesses, the state governor's conference on tourism is where accessible DMO relationships start.Short-term rental hosts are closer to the guest than any DMO, and tour operators should be building direct relationships with them now. 24:31 – 26:00 Short-term rentals nationally overtook hotels in occupancy as of September 2025. Those hosts talk directly to guests about what to do in town. A recommendation from a local Airbnb host is warmer than any OTA listing and costs zero commission. Finding them is manual (social media DMs, local searches), but the payoff is a direct referral channel with no middleman.Stop chasing first-time visitors. Loyal, repeat visitors spend more, stay longer, and sustain the businesses that matter. 32:49 – 33:32 DMOs and operators both fixate on acquiring new customers while ignoring the people who already love the destination. Repeat visitors become patrons of smaller, niche experiences and local businesses. For multi-day operators especially, a returning guest who books a deeper or different tour is more profitable than constantly feeding the top of the funnel.Identity beats branding. Know who you are and say no to the rest. 38:44 – 41:27 Jenn draws a hard line between brand (what you market) and identity (who you actually are and who you serve). When you lead with identity, you market less because the right people find you. That means turning down some customers and product ideas, which is terrifying for newer operators, but it prevents the bland, generic positioning that makes you invisible on platforms like Viator and GetYourGuide.The "book direct" movement matters for tour operators just as much as it does for short-term rentals and hotels. 42:58 – 44:28 Hotels lost roughly 80% of their distribution to OTAs. Tours and activities sit around 40% OTA-controlled, which means there is still time to build direct channels. DMOs missed the OTA boat the first time and are caught in a relevancy crisis. That creates a shared interest: both of you need to reclaim the guest relationship before the platforms own it entirely.Guerrilla, person-to-person marketing is the only thing worth betting on in this environment. 34:16 – 35:03 Replace coffee sleeves at a local shop for a week with a message like "next time mama's in town, try this." That costs almost nothing and puts your name in front of a local audience in a real, physical moment. Operators burning money on flashy ad campaigns and agencies are losing to the ones doing the manual work of building one relationship at a time.Bring tour operators, short-term rental hosts, and local businesses into the same room. The collaboration that comes out of it is worth more than any campaign. 30:35 – 32:17 A 12-person Tourpreneur meetup in Dallas turned competitors into collaborators planning joint tours before they left the room. Those rooms should include short-term rental hosts, restaurants, coffee shops. Nobody is organizing these cross-sector local gatherings yet. That is the opportunity.Rethink the "travel presentation at the library" model. Gather local people around something that is not your tour. 53:23 – 54:46 Jenn pitches a revival of the house-party model for travel: 10 to 15 people, food, conversation, then introduce the experience. For multi-day operators, this replaces the stale slide deck. Book clubs are surging. House gatherings are surging. The sale happens because you built trust in a personal setting, not because you ran a Facebook ad.Quirky, unpolished video cuts through. But virality does not equal business success. 36:32 – 37:38 Behind-the-scenes, day-in-the-life content is what is actually getting traction on social right now. The less templated and less AI-generated it feels, the better it performs. Use that attention as a hook, then shift to collaborative content and real relationship-building that converts. A weird 30-second clip of your tour prep is worth more than a polished banner ad.The inbound tourism situation in the US is worse than most operators realize, and pretending otherwise is a losing strategy. 48:28 – 50:43 Canadian airlines are pulling US routes for summer 2026. Sixteen countries now have travel advisories against

If you've ever quietly wondered “Why do I feel behind?”… this conversation is for you. In this episode of Eat Don't Compete, we begin a new series exploring what success actually means for a Christian. Many of us come into the faith carrying definitions of success that were shaped by culture, ambition, productivity, and comparison. But over time, God begins to expose the tension between worldly success and biblical faithfulness. In this episode, I open up about my own wrestle with discontentment, selfish ambition, and redefining success through the lens of Christ. We talk about: Why ambitious Christians often struggle with discontentment How comparison and misplaced value systems lead to dissatisfaction What Luke 12:15 reveals about covetousness and contentment Why defining success the wrong way will always leave us off balance   The difference between hustling for success and stewarding what God gives This episode lays the foundation for a larger series where we'll explore: Biblical success Joshua 1:7–8 and God's definition of success Christian fruitfulness vs worldly achievement Faithfulness, obedience, and stewardship If you've ever wrestled with feeling like you're not doing enough, not achieving enough, or not moving fast enough in life or ministry — you're not alone. This conversation is about learning to fix our eyes on Christ so we can live faithfully without constantly redefining success according to the world.

Send a textWhat if the line between “okay” and “too far” isn't a line worth walking? We open up about our 24-year sober journey and the moment a mentor reframed the question from “Is it allowed?” to “Is it wise for a king?” From there, the conversation turns honest and practical—how alcohol blurred judgment, complicated leadership, and stole the very peace it promised. We dig into Scripture's balanced view, the call to be sober-minded, and why “living beyond the gray” can protect marriages, ministries, and mental health.We also face the facts. Alcohol is a depressant that breaks sleep, raises cancer risk, and shows up in far too many assaults and crashes. Even modest use can fog thinking and dull discernment. Meanwhile, culture is shifting—low and no-alcohol options are booming, and younger generations are choosing clarity. For us, abstinence wasn't loss; it was abundance. Joy got brighter, community got safer, and our witness grew stronger. We learned to host gatherings where the recovering feel welcome and leaders model restraint that builds trust rather than testing boundaries.If alcohol is your gray area, try a simple experiment: a 30-day sobriety challenge. Let your body reset, watch your sleep improve, and see what happens to your focus, mood, and mornings. At the end, reassess with clear eyes. You might discover, as we did, that the tradeoffs aren't worth it and that the life you want thrives without a drink.

In July 2024, I was featured in The New York Times in an article about how childcare costs are limiting women's ability to work. The headline captured exactly how we felt at the time: stuck.In this solo episode, I share the real story behind that moment and how my family made the strategic decision to move from Chicago to León, Guanajuato. I break down the real cost of living for a family of four in the U.S., the childcare math that so many moms are quietly navigating, and the mindset shift that helped us stop blaming ourselves and start thinking strategically.If you've ever looked at your numbers and thought, “Why does this feel impossible?”, this episode is for you.For detailed show notes, visit vivalamami.com/episode153What You'll Hear:The reality many moms are experiencing with childcare and workThe real cost of living for a family of four in Chicago (and why the math didn't work for us)How childcare costs can create a hidden barrier for women trying to re-enter the workforceThe mindset shift that helped us not feel stuckHow moving to Mexico created breathing room for our family financially and emotionallyResources Mentioned:New York Times feature (July 2024)Episode 151: 3 Things You Must Do Before Moving AbroadFree Moving to Mexico Discord Community1-on-1 Moving to Mexico ConsultationWall Street Journal on Americans relocating abroadSupport the showSHOP MY NEWEST PRODUCTS - "How to Get Dual Citizenship in Mexico" E-Guide & Digital Course

In Part 4 of Pulse Check: The Reputation Rethink, we turn to one of higher education's most important, and according to our research, most underserved audiences: alumni. Ologie's national study revealed a striking insight: only 43% of respondents believe colleges and universities meaningfully benefit their alumni. Even more telling, most respondents hold college degrees themselves. These are alumni saying they feel least benefited by their alma mater. Host Day Kibilds is joined by Molly Ranz Calhoun, President and CEO of The Ohio State University Alumni Association, to explore what's behind that perception. From rising debt and economic instability to outdated engagement models focused too quickly on fundraising, alumni are questioning the return on their investment. Together, they unpack what alumni actually want: career navigation, community, personalization, lifelong learning, and systems of small, consistent support. This episode explores how institutions can shift from transactional outreach to long-term value exchange — and why alumni engagement must start long before graduation.Guest Bio (Molly Ranz Calhoun): Molly Ranz Calhoun is president and CEO of the Ohio State Alumni Association. As the leader of more than 630,000 living alumni, Molly has increased opportunities for students and alumni to interact, socialize, and collaborate for the benefit of Ohio State and the world. Always looking to give back, she has led countless community service efforts, including partnering with rival schools for projects in the cities of postseason football games. “I can't imagine anything I'd rather be doing than serving my fellow Buckeye alumni at the greatest college in the world,” Molly explains. “I could never repay all that Ohio State has given me and my family, but I spend every day trying.” Host Bio (Dayana Kibilds): With 15 years of experience, Dayana Kibilds has led award-winning work with universities around the world. An international keynote speaker and one of London, Ontario's 20 Under 40, she is known for making complex ideas clear, practical, and possible. She loves to teach and share what she knows through her email book Mailed It!, as well as through her workshops, courses, her work with young professionals at the Council for Advancement and Support of Education's Summer Institutes, and her weekly newsletter. A lifelong immigrant who grew up in six countries, Day is now happily Canadian and lives with her husband, Bruno, and son, Romeo.   - - - -Connect With Our Host:Mallory Willsea https://www.linkedin.com/in/mallorywillsea/https://twitter.com/mallorywillseaAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:The Higher Ed Pulse is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

The retirement mindset mentor George Jerjian explains how a second chance at life inspires him to help coach people into retirement. When George Jerjian was 52 years old, he was diagnosed with a bone tumor and given six months to live. For three weeks, he believed that was it. Then he was told he belonged to what he calls “the 2% club.” The cancer hadn't spread. He would live. That experience didn't just save his life. It reframed it. “Too often we just drift,” George said. “Even in retirement, we drift.” That word — drift — captures something many retirees feel but rarely articulate. For decades, retirement is the goal. You save. You invest. You plan. You finally reach the day when work stops. But then what? The Retirement Mirage George calls it the “retirement mirage.” Culturally, we've been sold an image: golf, travel, grandchildren, freedom from responsibility. And for a season, those things can be wonderful. But George challenges that assumption directly: “If you retire at 65, you could last till 90 and beyond these days… but what people don't realize is that no matter how much money they've saved, longevity has kind of wrecked the retirement equation.” Retirement used to be short. Now it can last 20, 25, even 30 years. That's not a vacation. That's a life stage. In the Retire Today framework, we talk about SPEND, MAKE, KEEP, INVEST, and LEAVE. But underneath all five steps is identity. Who are you when the title on your business card disappears? George put his experience plainly: “When you retire, who am I now? I'm a nobody. I'm useless.” That identity vacuum is where drifting begins. From Bucket List to Purpose George doesn't dismiss the bucket list. He just reframes it. “Don't delay that. Get on to that. Do the stuff you want to do. Because once you're satiated, you'll start looking for something more meaningful to do.” Travel. Play golf. Visit family. Do the things you've postponed. But don't confuse activity with purpose. Retirement, he argues, is a rite of passage. A hero's journey. He references Joseph Campbell's idea that “the cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.” In other words, the discomfort you avoid may contain the growth you need. That's why one of the first exercises George gives clients is confronting mortality: “On your deathbed, what is it you haven't yet done that you always wanted to do?” It's uncomfortable. But clarity often lives on the other side of discomfort. The D.A.R.E. Method To guide retirees through this transition, George created the D.A.R.E. method: Discover – Understand what retirement truly is (and what it isn't).Assimilate – Learn how your mind works. Shift from a fixed mindset (“I can't do this”) to a growth mindset (“I can't do this yet”).Rewire – Build new habits through repetition. The subconscious mind thrives on stability and patterns.Expand – Step into growth rather than contraction. That last one is particularly interesting. Traditionally, retirement advice has focused on shrinking. Reduce risk. Cut expenses. Preserve capital. Prepare for decline. George pushes back: “With 20 years to go, this is not the time to settle in safe investments… your life has to match your investments.” He isn't dismissing prudent planning. But he is challenging the mindset of slow fade. Retirement, in his view, is not about “drifting into oblivion.” It's about repurposing. Joy vs. Happiness Another distinction George made is between happiness and joy. “Happiness is ephemeral… it comes and goes. But joy is something you can still have even if you're going through challenging times.” Retirement won't remove hardship. Health issues, family stress, and loss still occur. But joy — rooted in gratitude and meaning — can persist. “If you're not thankful, you're not thinking,” he said, connecting gratitude to awareness. Gratitude expands possibility. Resentment contracts it. From Retirement to Repurpose Perhaps the most powerful shift in the conversation came near the end: Move from the retirement mirage → to retirement meaning → to retirement repurpose. Financial planning gives you options. But mindset determines whether you use them well. You can save diligently and still drift. Or you can treat retirement as what it truly is: not an ending, but a new beginning. And that beginning requires courage. Because if you don't choose who you'll become in retirement, drift may choose for you. Don't forget to leave a rating for the “Retire Today” podcast if you've been enjoying these episodes!

¿Qué pasa cuando el éxito empieza a costarte la paz?En este episodio de Let's Rethink This, converso con el licenciado Jaime Sanabria sobre el lado menos visible del éxito profesional: el desgaste emocional, la presión por rendir siempre y la desconexión de lo que realmente importa.A través de una conversación honesta y profundamente humana, Jaime comparte cómo su identidad estuvo atada por años al trabajo, la perfección y el “nunca decir que no”, y cómo esa narrativa lo hizo más vulnerable al burnout. Juntos cuestionamos la idea de que el sacrificio constante es el precio inevitable del éxito y exploramos cómo reconectar con valores y propósito puede convertirse en la herramienta número uno para prevenir el burnout.Este episodio también reta la noción de que el burnout es solo responsabilidad del individuo. Hablamos del rol que juegan las culturas laborales, los sistemas y el liderazgo en crear entornos que desgastan —o protegen— a las personas. Desde su experiencia, Jaime comparte por qué decidió construir un bufete pro-empleado, donde el bienestar, la familia y la calidad de vida no son beneficios, sino prioridades.Si eres líder, fundador o profesional y te has preguntado si vale la pena seguir pagando el costo del éxito como lo has conocido hasta ahora, este episodio es para ti.Escúchalo con mente abierta.Puede que te incomode.Pero también puede cambiar la forma en que trabajas y lideras.

Hey Transformers, as we close out our longevity series,  I'm bringing back a powerful TYM Classic — and I'm re-airing this episode very intentionally. When we recorded this episode on epigenetics, it completely reframed the way I think about health, longevity, and regenerative health. It wasn't just science — it was empowerment. So many of us have been told that our genes determine our future. That if something “runs in the family,” it's inevitable. But this discussion opened up a different narrative — one rooted in research, lifestyle choices, and the power we actually have to influence how our genes express themselves.Summary: Myrna Young engages in an enlightening conversation with Dr. Matthew Dawson about the transformative influence of epigenetics on health. Understanding the pivotal role of epigenetics in shaping our DNA destiny, Dr. Dawson elaborates on how lifestyle choices markedly influence gene expression, highlighting that genetic predispositions only contribute a fraction to overall health outcomes compared to epigenetic factors. The episode delves into the importance of personalized healthcare plans, as demonstrated through case studies such as Dr. Dawson's mother, who effectively managed her risk of Alzheimer's through personalized lifestyle adjustments. Key Takeaways:Epigenetic Influence: Lifestyle choices, such as diet and exercise, are crucial in turning genes on or off, significantly affecting health outcomes.Personalized Healthcare: Utilizing genomics and epigenetics can lead to tailored healthcare plans that can mitigate genetic risks.Biological Age Understanding: Biological age tests offer a more precise measure of health and longevity than chronological age.Resource Utilization: Tools like Wild Health and True Diagnostic can aid in personalized health planning and prolonging health span.Sponsors of this episode: NOCD: If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.

ReThink Life Church 11103

Welcome to the AI-powered cyberpunk timeline.We're ripping into CrowdStrike's 2026 Threat Report and translating it from analyst-speak into what it actually means for anyone who has to defend real systems in the real world.Most threat reporting reads like a D&D campaign with spreadsheets: too many “groups,” too many names, and not enough “what do I do about it?” We're doing the opposite. The headline is simple: AI is turning cybercrime into a high-speed manufacturing line—and your legacy defenses are out here trying to stop a Tesla with a traffic cone.In this episode, we break down how adversaries are using AI to:Scale social engineering into a nonstop persuasion engineSlip past signature-based controls like they're not even thereRun cross-domain ransomware ops faster, cleaner, and more coordinated than most defenders can trackWe dig into the numbers (including the reported 89% spike in AI-enabled activity) and the bigger trend that matters even more: the shift toward interactive intrusions—human-led operations that blend into normal admin behavior, live off the land, and make your “alerts dashboard” look like a sad slot machine.You'll also hear why the modern threat landscape is basically:Big Game Hunting crews targeting enterprises like it's a sportSupply chain compromises that don't need your permission to ruin your quarterAI-generated malware, personas, and pretexts built to beat humans, not just toolsAnd yes—we talk about the stuff everyone pretends isn't the problem:Unmanaged edge devices (because “we'll inventory later” is a strategy, apparently)VPN/firewall dependency, like it's still 2012Cloud sprawl + identity chaos creating perfect lanes for lateral movement and quiet exfilThen we address the clown show: adversary naming chaos. CrowdStrike calls one thing X, another firm calls it Y, and by the time the briefing deck hits leadership, it's basically: “We got hacked by… someone.” Russia, China, North Korea—aliases multiplying like gremlins after midnight. If we can't speak clearly about who's doing what, we can't respond clearly either.This isn't doom porn. It's a call to action:Simplify how you understand threatsharden trust relationships and identity pathsdeploy proactive controls that assume the attacker is fast, adaptive, and increasingly automatedIf you're in security ops, engineering, or executive strategy, this one's your field manual for what's next—because in the AI era, the defenders who “wait for confirmation” are the ones writing breach reports at 2AM.Rethink your model.AI is making attacks faster, smarter, and more aggressive. The only way to win is to understand the adversary's blueprint—and build your defenses like you actually believe the internet is hostile (because it is).

Modern medicine excels at treating disease, less so at prevention. In this episode, we explore how wearable technology powered by artificial intelligence is bringing together Western physiology biometrics and Traditional Chinese Medicine to support true preventive health. Ryan Yuen shares how continuous monitoring of subtle body signals can help identify imbalance long before symptoms appear—and what this means for healthy longevity. Aging well is not about acccepting decline—it's about identifying early warning signs and supporting body balance before disease is established.

On this episode of the podcast, National Security and China Expert Steve Yates joins Amanda Head to break down why NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) — at over $4B per launch — is unsustainable and plagued by costly delays. Yates explains why America must pivot toward a competitive, private-sector-driven model, highlighting SpaceX's reusable rocket success as the blueprint for lower cost, higher cadence, and greater capacity in space.The conversation expands to greater U.S.–China relations, as Yates outlines Beijing's rapid technological and military advancements and why Washington must take a clear-eyed, balanced approach. With President Trump preparing to meet with Xi Jinping at the end of March, the discussion turns to trade leverage, fentanyl trafficking, and broader security concerns. In a deeply personal moment, Yates reflects on the tragic loss of his daughter Christina to fentanyl and why stopping the flow of the drug into America is not just good policy — it gets very personal for loving families like his.

Who is Jesus… really?

We kick off with a tease for next week's show: a topic that surprised even me once I actually sat with it. I collect memorabilia cards. I love patches. I collect autograph memorabilia cards too. But I don't chase autograph only cards, and I'm not talking about vintage autos or in person signatures. I mean modern autograph sets and modern autograph singles. So why do patches pull me in, but autographs on their own usually don't? I think I finally figured it out. Next week, I'll lay out the theory and we'll talk it through with the guys. After that, we roll into show and tell, and it's a full spread. A meaningful gift from a viewer that lands right on a top want list item. A quick rip through a stack of early 2000s era hockey memorabilia that reminds you how fun and affordable the hobby can still be when you collect with your own lane in mind. Then we keep going with more pickups, a few modern slabs, a handful of personal favorites, and a couple of oddball additions that turned into a fun new little side quest. We wrap by checking in on a major auction watch and setting the table for next week's episode, where a big hobby conversation and a big result are both coming into focus.

Most men don't ReThink alcohol because everything's fallen apart.They ReThink because they're tired of the trade-off. A few hours of switch-off in exchange for a foggy head, lost energy and another quiet promise to 'sort it out next week.In episode 240 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick is joined by Ritchie, a long-time listener who decided to change his relationship with alcohol after more than 20 years of what many might call 'normal' drinking .There was no rock bottom moment. No crisis. Just a growing awareness that alcohol had gone from something social to something relied upon.Ritchie shares what it was like growing up in UK drinking culture. Friday nights in a field at 15. University midweek sessions. Rugby matches followed by beers. Watching Liverpool with drinks before, during and after the game. It wasn't chaos. It was routine. And that familiarity made it harder to question.After one night where a few beers left him feeling worse than expected, something clicked. He didn't decide to quit forever. He set himself a target of 100 days and committed to seeing what would change.What followed wasn't easy.He talks honestly about the first 30 days, thinking about beer constantly and driving past Morrisons with the urge to turn left out of habit. That pull back to what's comfortable is real, and he doesn't sugar-coat it.Awesome things you'll hear during this conversation:• Why you don't need to hit rock bottom to make a change• What the early weeks feel like when your brain keeps suggesting 'just one'• How to interrupt autopilot patterns, even something as simple as the drive home• The impact alcohol was having on his sleep, training and recovery• Why speaking to someone external made all the differenceBy 111 days, Ritchie noticed clearer thinking, stronger training sessions and heavier lifts at 38 than he'd ever managed before. More importantly, he began to understand what alcohol had been doing for him emotionally, and why letting it go felt uncomfortable at first.This episode is a grounded, honest look at what it takes to break a long-standing pattern, especially when that pattern looks normal from the outside.If you've ever found yourself debating whether to stop at the shop on the way home, this one will resonate.Work with Patrick:Discover how coaching can support your goals in rethinking alcohol.

This month marks 100 years since Americans first held the celebration that would eventually become Black History Month. On our video podcast "Settle In," Geoff Bennett commemorated this anniversary with the award-winning journalist and writer Michael Harriot. His most recent book, "Black AF History," frames Black history not as a counter-narrative, but as the narrative of American history.

Join our NEW YouTube page here: https://www.youtube.com/@ModernSoccerCoachTV In this week's Modern Soccer Coach podcast, I sat down with US Soccer Sporting Director Matt Crocker for an honest conversation about the future of player development in the United States. If the goal is to become a consistent World Cup contender — not just a nation capable of a one-off run — then the biggest shift cannot happen at senior level. It has to happen in the environments where young players are developed every day. We discussed the numbers behind elite performance, the importance of practice time, the pressure coaches feel to win at younger ages, and why US Soccer is choosing to influence rather than dictate change across the landscape. One theme stood out clearly: there is a difference between a winning mentality and a win-at-all-costs mentality. Elite performance begins with joy. When children feel psychologically safe, encouraged to experiment, and supported as individuals, they build the creativity, confidence, and resilience required at the highest level. If we prioritize short-term results over long-term development, we risk limiting both participation and potential. The pathway to elite soccer is not built on pressure alone — it is built on environments where players love the game enough to invest the thousands of hours required to master it.

The Experience Strategy Podcast | substack.theexperiencestrategist.com A post on X went viral — 38,000 reshares, 83 million reads. Written by respected AI voice Matt Schumer, it opens with a gut-punch analogy: think back to February 2020. Most of us weren't paying attention to a virus spreading overseas. Then in three weeks, everything changed. Schumer's argument is that we are in a similar "this seems overblown" phase right now — except what's coming is bigger than COVID. Dave, Joe, and Aransas dig into the article, push back where it's overblown, and land on what experience strategists actually need to do about it. What's in This Episode The article's core argument. AI isn't just getting better — it's getting faster, more capable at complex tasks, and increasingly independent of human involvement. The latest models are now building and debugging the next version of themselves. Schumer's point: no matter how complex or human your job feels, it's getting closer to AI's reach by the millisecond, not the minute. What Schumer says to do about it — and the team's reaction: Use AI seriously. Don't dabble. Understand what it can actually do. Get your financial house in order. This isn't the time to be overextended. Lean into what's hardest to replace. Anything you do primarily on a screen is likely a 1–2 year exposure. Rethink what you're telling your kids. Their dreams just got closer — and the path there looks different. Get in the habit of adapting now, not when you're forced to. Joe's take: good prescription, overblown description. AI is a tool, and no technology in history has eliminated more jobs than it created. The real question is mindset: executives who come to AI asking "how do I automate people out?" will find exactly that. Executives who ask "how do I augment my people?" will find something much more powerful in the human-plus-AI combination. The disruption, as with all disruptive innovation, starts at the bottom of the value chain and moves up — which means you need to be working above it. The echo chamber problem. Joe raises a concern that's already documented: AI increasingly trains on AI output, creating what researchers are calling model collapse — a cyclical echo chamber where biases get replicated and amplified rather than corrected. The telephone game at civilizational scale. Aransas connects this to the show Pluribus, which she found boring as a narrative but compelling as a metaphor for hive-mind homogenization. What experience strategists specifically need right now — three points from Dave: Provenance. As AI commoditizes outputs, original sources become more valuable, not less. If you're building consumer insights without actually talking to consumers, you're already three steps from provenance. The strategists who can signal authentic, original sourcing will be disproportionately valuable. Cross-disciplinary thinking. Experience strategists have been operating too narrowly — personas, journey maps, CX mechanics. AI gives you superpowers across marketing, planning, and adjacent disciplines. Use them. Going deeper on the same narrow lane is the wrong direction. A strategic point of view. Not an opinion. A point of view. The difference: a POV is grounded in a real perspective on where things are headed and what companies should do about it. Joe's Transformation Economy is the model. Right now, the most defensible experience POV is transformation — because transformation is the economic offering most deeply dependent on human expertise, authentic relationships, and the kind of curated AI deployment that actually requires strategic judgment. The era of typos and texture. Aransas's 15-year-old put it well: right now, the most human signal is imperfection. Messy feelings, quirky punctuation, genuine awkwardness — these are becoming markers of authenticity in a world of smoothed-out AI output. The demand for what feels genuinely human is rising alongside the supply of what doesn't. Key Quotes "Knowledge work has changed forever. That is going to be a rough adjustment for all of us — and all experience strategists are knowledge workers." — Dave Norton "If you come with the mindset of how can I get rid of people, you'll find ways to get rid of people. But if you come with a mindset of how this augments my people's skills and makes them better — you'll be amazed at what human plus AI can do." — Joe Pine "Provenance is going to become more and more important. The inputs have to be better. Original data, original source — how do you get to that?" — Dave Norton "The most defensible experience point of view you can have right now is probably transformation — because it's the one built on technology and human expertise together." — Aransas Savas "This isn't a sit-on-our-hands-and-wait situation. This is a get-engaged situation." — Aransas Savas Referenced "Something Big Is Happening" by Matt Schumer — [https://x.com/mattshumer_/status/2021256989876109403] The Transformation Economy by B.

In this episode of Pulse Check: The Reputation Rethink, we turn to two areas where public skepticism about higher education becomes more pronounced: money and local community impact. Ologie's national study revealed that most people believe colleges and universities provide value to society, but when the conversation shifts to how institutions are funded and how they show up in their communities, confidence begins to waver. Host Dayana Kibilds is joined by Doug Edwards, Chief Strategy Officer at Ologie, and Dr. Cassie Dutton, Research Director at Ologie, to unpack what the data tells us. Only 39% of respondents believe taxpayer dollars are being allocated to the areas they care most about. At the same time, only about half say they see meaningful benefits from their local colleges and universities. Together, they explore where that skepticism comes from, what people actually want to see prioritized, and how institutions can respond in ways that feel clear, visible, and grounded in everyday life. This episode is about understanding the gap between value and visibility, and what it would take to close it. Guest Bio (Doug Edwards): Doug is a seasoned professional who's dedicated his career to helping brands do more good for the world. With 20 years of experience across healthcare, education, cultural institutions, and non-profits, Doug helps senior leaders and marketing teams navigate their toughest brand related challenges. He thrives at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and design and currently serves as the Chief Strategy Officer at Ologie where he leads the research and strategy team.  Guest Bio (Cassie Dutton, PhD): Cassie brings a unique perspective to her work, combining 10+ years of academic research and consumer insights experience. She's conducted academic research on the immigrant experience, veterans perspectives on social issues, and public policy and worked with strategists and consumers at some of the world's largest brands. What ties this all together? A real passion for utilizing data to tell stories and get to the “so what.” As a qualitative and quantitative researcher, Cassie loves finding just the right methods and approach to get at the heart of a question. When she's not drafting research design, analyzing data, or moderating, you can find Cassie at her local independent bookstore or stamping her passport on an international adventure. Host Bio (Dayana Kibilds): With 15 years of experience, Dayana Kibilds has led award-winning work with universities around the world. An international keynote speaker and one of London, Ontario's 20 Under 40, she is known for making complex ideas clear, practical, and possible. She loves to teach and share what she knows through her email book Mailed It!, as well as through her workshops, courses, her work with young professionals at the Council for Advancement and Support of Education's Summer Institutes, and her weekly newsletter. A lifelong immigrant who grew up in six countries, Day is now happily Canadian and lives with her husband, Bruno, and son, Romeo. - - - -Connect With Our Host:Mallory Willsea https://www.linkedin.com/in/mallorywillsea/https://twitter.com/mallorywillseaAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:The Higher Ed Pulse is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

What if the rules you've been following your whole life, aren't actually serving you?In this episode I'm joined by speaker, business therapist, and author Lauren Wittenberg Weiner, whose new book Unruly: Deconstruct the Rules, Defy the Norms, and Define Your Success challenges us to deconstruct the rules, defy the norms, and define success on our own terms.Lauren's story is as compelling as it is surprising. A former federal employee who worked in the White House rulemaking office, she went on to found and scale a government contracting firm to over $100 million in annual revenue, by questioning the very systems she once operated within.Lauren also opens up about navigating life after selling her company, writing her book during an intensely personal season, and what surprised her most about the publishing process.If you've ever felt boxed in by expectations, whether in your career, your family life, or even your own ambition, this episode will invite you to pause, look around, and ask: Are these rules still serving me?Learn more about Lauren:Instagram @laurenwittenbergweinerLinkedInFacebookBook recommendation:Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success, Adam GrantLikeable Badass: How Women Get the Success They Deserve, by Alison FragaleFollow me on:Instagram @stacyennisFacebook @stacyenniscreativeLinkedInYouTube @stacyennisauthorTo submit a question, email hello@stacyennis.com or visit stacyennis.com/contact and fill out the form on the page.

Lisa Poslusny left corporate accounting thinking life would feel different, only to discover she'd packed her stress right along with her. Now a mental fitness coach specializing in accounting professionals, she's learned that changing circumstances isn't enough, and the real work happens internally. Her candid, unscripted conversation with John Randolph on Episode 89 of CPA Life moves from personal transformation to industry-wide challenges, touching on everything from the saboteur assessment (those automatic negative thought patterns that reflect overused strengths) to why accounting firms waste energy trying to fix people's weaknesses instead of amplifying what they do best. There are many gems here: a Houston firm that built a multimillion-dollar practice by hiring part-time working moms, a tax director who found the one firm willing to let him build his own practice on the side, and a managing partner who finally admitted the real reason he opposed remote work was simply because he didn't want it. And the thread connecting it all? "Conventional wisdom" in the accounting profession is in serious need of deconstructing. Get the full show notes and more resources at CPALifePodcast.com

Dave Evans is an entrepreneur, early Apple engineer, former Electronic Arts executive, Stanford lecturer, and author. How does someone genuinely find meaning in their life? We're often told that when things feel empty, uncertain, or painful, the answer is to “find more meaning”. But what does that actually mean? Is meaning something we discover, like a hidden truth waiting to be uncovered? Or is it something we construct through choice, responsibility, and attention? Expect to learn what people actually mean when we're talking about meaning, the problem people are actually trying to solve when they say they want meaning, how to engineer more meaning into your life, what the difference between the problem-solving world and the meaning-making world is, what the red herrings are in terms of meaning, why so many people become objectively successful and subjectively miserable and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/deals⁠ Get up to $350 off the Pod 5 at https://eightsleep.com/modernwisdom Get a free bottle of D3K2, an AG1 Welcome Kit, and more when you first subscribe at https://ag1.info/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Get up to $50 off the RP Hypertrophy App at https://rpstrength.com/modernwisdom - Get Dave Evans' new Book - 'How to Live A Meaningful Life' here: https://designingyourlife.link/how-to-live-a-meaningful-life/chris - Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/books⁠ Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: ⁠https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom⁠ Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59⁠ #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf⁠ #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp⁠ - Get In Touch: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast⁠ Email: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/contact⁠ - Learn more about your ad choices.

People believe research matters. What they don't always see is how it shows up in their lives.In this episode of Pulse Check: The Reputation Rethink, host Dayana Kibilds digs into one of the clearest findings from Ologie's national study: across politics, geography, and education level, the public overwhelmingly agrees that research — especially in STEM and medicine — is higher education's most important contribution beyond teaching.And yet, only about two-thirds of people believe colleges and universities are actually making an impact through research.So what closes that gap? Clearer storytelling.Day is joined by two higher ed communications leaders who have built national campaigns around that exact idea:Marina Cooper, Senior Associate Vice President for Integrated Marketing and Brand at Johns Hopkins University, behind the Research Saves Lives campaignKamrhan Farwell, Senior Vice President of University Relations at Boston University, behind the You Are Why campaignTogether, they unpack how research storytelling can:Make complex work feel real and relevantBuild public trust without politicizing the messageMobilize partners across campus, government, and advancementEnergize internal communities as much as external audiences - - - -Connect With Our Host:Mallory Willsea https://www.linkedin.com/in/mallorywillsea/https://twitter.com/mallorywillseaAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:The Higher Ed Pulse is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

You're invited to keep going with a honest look at the categories most homes definitely have too much of — even if they don't look like clutter at first glance. This is about being realistic, not perfect, and questioning what's taking up space in your home and your head.You're encouraged to approach each category with simple questions: Do you use it? Does it fit your life now? Would you miss it if it were gone?Rethink shoes that hurt your feet, don't fit, or are worn beyond repair — especially if you keep taking them off moments after putting them on. Textbooks get a hard truth moment too: if you've tried to sell or donate them and no one wants them, they're just taking up space. Letting them go is allowed.Take a brave look at makeup that's expired, unused, or unhygienic, along with incidental furniture that no longer serves a purpose but quietly attracts clutter. Clothing gets an honest call-out — you likely have far more than you need, and letting go won't leave you stranded without options.You're also encouraged to reduce visual clutter by decluttering ornaments and trinkets, especially those without meaning or joy anymore. Practical categories like stubby holders, wine glasses, lingerie, and fidget toys are reframed around actual use rather than “just in case.”The aim isn't to strip your home bare — it's to create breathing room. When you declutter by category, momentum builds, decisions get easier, and your space starts supporting you instead of draining you.Join my Free 5 Day Wardrobe Challenge for a 5 day video series to take you through your wardrobe step by stepYou may also like to listen to these episodes:5 Home TruthsOpportunity Cost/ Cost Benefit AnalysisJoin my communityLeave a 5 Star Google ReviewFollow me on InstagramFollow me on FacebookJoin my Facebook groupThank you to my sound engineer, Jarred from Four4ty Studio Hosted on Acast.
