Internalized negative self-talk trapping ND lives? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April unpacks Complex PTSD/ADHD mental health with Karen Dwyer-Tesoriero, NYC/FL psychotherapist (25+ years social work/child welfare/intergenerational trauma/CPTSD expert). Using EMDR/IFS/Polyvagal/somatic therapies, Karen undoes limiting beliefs for authenticity/goals; life coaching for non-NY/FL via TikTok, plus parent support for emotional regulation. Key insights: Negative self-talk: Childhood messages (e.g., "lazy" from ADHD struggles) internalized—higher CPTSD risk in ND (adverse experiences like unmet needs). CPTSD vs. PTSD: Relational/micro-traumas (e.g., single-parent absences/narcissistic abuse) vs. single events (war/accidents); leads to anxiety/depression/avoidance. Polyvagal theory: Bottom-up body focus (window of tolerance/fight-flight-freeze/dorsal shutdown); regulate via sensations (e.g., neutral feet vs. chest tension)—ADHD/autism concrete (EMDR eye movement/tappers). EMDR for ND: Bilateral stimulation desensitizes trauma memories; evolving for autism/ADHD (virtual/no light bar); process emotions concretely ("what happened next?"). Rewriting stories: Narrative/motivational interviewing challenges origins ("is it true? strengths? passions?"); experiment authenticity (small steps like "hi" to vendor). Attachment styles: Healthy (communication/vulnerability); avoidant (infidelity/avoid intimacy); anxious (constant doubt/people-pleasing); disorganized (both)—ND rejection sensitivity amplifies. Addictions/substances: Beyond alcohol/drugs (food/shopping/exercise/secrets); red flags (hiding behaviors); regulate dopamine healthily (breaks/routines). Advocacy/relationships: Therapy fit crucial (ask trainings/referrals); healthy dating (experiment/vulnerability); parents model regulation to minimize messages. For autistic/ADHD young adults navigating independence/trauma, Karen's vibe: "You're not broken—rewrite for worth." Free resources at kdtesoriero.lcsw.net; email coffeewithkaren@gmail.com.

Is happiness a skill you can develop? Or is it a place you find yourself, if you're lucky? Today's podcast is a bonus episode that I've recorded, from me to you, to demonstrate that yes, happiness is about more than just chance. These special Boxing Day podcasts are becoming a bit of a tradition now (look out for one I'll be releasing on New Year's Day too). And in this one, I share five powerful ideas with you – five happiness habits that can transform your life in meaningful ways. They're all explored in much greater detail in my book Happy Mind Happy Life: 10 Simple Ways to Feel Great Every Day, which is being re-published in the UK in an exciting new format on 1 January 2026. But you can leverage your happiness levels right away by listening today. Here's a quick overview of what you'll learn: 1. Happiness is a Skill - Discover the difference between ‘junk happiness' and ‘core happiness' to feel more content, in control, and aligned with your values. 2. Define Success for Yourself - Imagine yourself on your deathbed and identify three things you'll wish you had done. What can you do now to move toward that ending? 3. Eliminate Choice - We make thousands of decisions a day, and each one drains mental energy. By creating routines and reducing choice, you can reduce that stress. 4. Make Time Stand Still - Identify ‘flow state' activities that make you lose track of time, and schedule them as investments in your happiness. 5. Seek Out Friction - If someone upsets you, ask yourself why their words affected you so much. Rewriting their story with compassion will increase your own sense of control. I hope this episode helps you and your family cultivate lasting happiness in 2026 and beyond. I explore all these ideas and many more in my newly formatted book Happy Mind Happy Life - available here as a paperback or as an audiobook, which I am narrating.

Sarah Ashley's evolution to founder of Portal Copy Co. reveals a fundamental truth: entrepreneurial success requires self-awareness and the willingness to pivot when misaligned. Her critical realization that personal interest does not mandate career commitment—which led her to abandon computer science for business—became the foundation of her philosophy. As the first entrepreneur in her family, she developed the independence and strategic thinking that would define her entire career, learning early that selective client relationships and authentic alignment matter more than revenue maximization. The core of Ashley's success is a customer-centric approach to brand messaging that eliminates generic clichés like made with love and we've got it covered. She focuses relentlessly on what customers gain rather than what brands have created, producing measurable results including product messaging that generated twelve thousand dollars in revenue within ten days. Her nuanced perspective on AI reinforces this approach: while useful as a thought partner for brainstorming, AI cannot produce the genuine originality that builds sustainable brand differentiation. True competitive advantage comes from authentic voice and perspective, not algorithmic predictability. The most transformative element of Sarah's business has been internal: sustained commitment to mindset work, quarterly reflection, and embodied decision-making. Her philosophy balances clear vision with flexibility to overcome perfectionism and overthinking. Ready to apply these customer-focused messaging principles to your brand?

Hey friend — feeling exhausted, stuck, or like you're always on the brink? In this episode Avik chats with Susanna Kenyan-Murray about the hidden mental load: burnout, sneaky limiting beliefs, and the subconscious scripts that keep you small. They share simple, powerful shifts you can try now — breathwork to release stored tension, journaling and mindset work to catch the replays, and boundary-setting to protect your energy so you can actually thrive. If your chest feels a bit lighter just hearing this, trust that feeling — one conscious breath and one brave decision can be the start of a whole new story.
The Christmas I Chose HappyChristmas can be magical.It can also be painfully loud, lonely, emotional, and heavy with expectation.In this very special Christmas Eve episode, Heather shares a quiet, honest story about the Christmas she spent completely on her own — and why it became one of the most meaningful Christmases of her life.This isn't a story about pretending loneliness doesn't hurt.It's a story about choice.Heather explores how consciously choosing peace over pressure, presence over performance, and self-kindness over “shoulds” transformed a day that could have felt empty into a genuine gift.Through simple, sensory moments — long baths, dogs, books, favourite films, unplugging from the world — this episode gently challenges the belief that being alone at Christmas is something to be feared or fixed.Whether you're spending Christmas on your own, surrounded by people, or somewhere in between, this episode offers permission to slow down, soften, and choose what truly feels nourishing.✨ In this episode, you'll hear about:Why loneliness doesn't automatically mean sadnessHow choice can transform even the most emotionally loaded daysLetting go of Christmas pressure, expectation, and comparisonCreating peace without needing anyone else to changeWhy choosing happy is often quiet, intentional, and deeply personalChapters:00:19 - A Real Christmas Story00:50 - Choosing Happiness at Christmas02:26 - Finding Peace in Solitude03:15 - Rewriting the Narrative of Christmas04:05 - A Gentle Christmas Invitation04:57 - Reflections on Christmas and Choosing Happiness

What if imposter syndrome wasn't a weakness, but a compass?Emily Brubaker didn't think she was ready to run a resort kitchen. She didn't think she'd win a national TV competition.

She opens up about leaving the kitchen to raise kids, coming back through heartbreak and grit, and the radical changes she's making to leadership culture in resorts.We talk about redefining balance, leading with empathy, and what it looks like to finally believe in yourself—without losing your edge.This one's for every operator who's ever felt like they didn't belong.

What if money isn't as "real" as we think it is? This week, Sarah talks to spiritual coach, tour leader, and money mindset mentor Halle Eavelyn about the deep, often hidden beliefs that shape women's relationships with wealth. From a life-changing awakening in Egypt to writing The Passive Income Power Plan, Halle shares how she helps women remember their power—and step fully into it. Here's something wild: women couldn't open their own bank accounts until 1974. Today, we still receive only 3% of venture capital funding. These aren't just statistics—they're symptoms of deep programming affecting how we approach money right now. Halle had a profound moment in the dining room of a Nile cruise ship during a guided meditation. She received a download that hit every cell of her body: "You have a soul and you will never die." That spiritual awakening sparked a 30-year exploration into consciousness, intuition, and how women can reclaim their birthright to wealth. If you've been wondering why you haven't been making more money, or if you've been feeling stuck around the idea that you deserve wealth - this conversation is for you. This is episode 312 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast. I'm Sarah Walton, and I help women entrepreneurs build businesses they love through authentic sales strategies and money mindset work. What You'll Learn Halle's unshakable spiritual awakening in Egypt—and what happened at the Temple of Philae Why money is energetic (not just emotional) The "trauma inheritance" that affects women's wealth-building How women become their own gatekeepers around funding and wealth (and how to stop) Why money is just a story we tell ourselves—and how to rewrite that story What's coming economically and why women need to prepare now (financial tsunami by 2027) Simple ways to start rewriting your money story right now Practical steps to reclaim your financial power, including passive income strategies Why Sarah loved the idea of creating small wealth circles with friends How to follow your intuition breadcrumbs from awareness through action into results Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 307: The Grace Codes: Leading with Feminine Power https://sarahwalton.com/grace-codes-feminine-leadership-women-entrepreneurs/ Ep 263: How Your Nervous System Shapes Your Money Habits https://sarahwalton.com/nervous-system-regulation/ Ep 227: How to Clear a Money Fog https://sarahwalton.com/clear-money-fog/ Connect with Halle Eavelyn https://hallewealth.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/eavelyn https://www.facebook.com/eavelyn/ https://www.instagram.com/halle.eavelyn/ https://youtube.com/@halleeavelyn About Halle Eavelyn Featured in Time Magazine, USA Today, and Good Morning America, Halle is a Transformational Wealth Coach, speaker, and writer who helps women clear their old patterns and beliefs so they can call in the financial power that brings freedom.

Have you ever felt torn between your sacred calling and your desire for financial ease? In this powerful and heart-opening episode, host Michel Ai Reavis gently unpacks a pattern many healers, intuitives, and spiritual entrepreneurs carry without realizing it — the Healer's Poverty Vow. This subconscious belief, rooted in centuries of spiritual tradition and reinforced by family and cultural narratives, often shows up as over-giving, undercharging, or feeling guilty for receiving. Michel shares her own recent moment of revelation, where a hidden belief had quietly shaped her behavior and blocked her expansion, and how bringing this vow into the light became a turning point.This episode is an invitation to compassion, courage, and awakening — not just intellectually, but energetically. Michel explores how ancient spiritual vows of poverty became tangled with modern definitions of service, creating the illusion that purity requires sacrifice or financial struggle. She reminds you that your work is sacred, your time is valuable, and that your prosperity can be part of your ministry rather than a contradiction to it.Through gentle storytelling and spiritual insight, you'll be guided into understanding why service and suffering are not synonymous — and why abundance is not only safe, but essential for the work you're here to do. You'll be led through a beautiful visualization that helps you rewrite your old soul contract around money and service, creating a new vow rooted in joy, sovereignty, and divine reciprocity.Before closing, Michel offers reflective journal prompts to help you shift out of inherited patterns and into a relationship with money that supports your mission instead of limiting it. If you've ever felt conflicted about receiving, struggled to charge, or wondered whether it's truly “spiritual” to want more ease — this episode is your permission slip to rise.Topics Covered:The origins of the Healer's Poverty Vow and why so many spiritual entrepreneurs carry itHow inherited beliefs around money, service, and sacrifice influence your business todayWhy service and suffering are not the same — and the energetic truth about abundanceHow money acts as an amplifier for spiritual workA guided visualization to rewrite your soul contract with prosperityJournal prompts for releasing old vows and embracing a new, aligned relationship with receivingHow prospering as a healer uplifts the collectiveTune in to feel supported, seen, and spiritually affirmed — and to step into a new chapter of service, sovereignty, and abundance.Contact:michel@moneylighthouse.com

Earned media remains the most influential input for AI, with 95% of citations coming from unpaid editorial sources. The conversation emphasised the importance of original content, relevance, and recency in PR strategies. Practical steps include frequently publishing news via earned media, auditing AI footprints, and ensuring factual information. The discussion underscored the need for PR professionals to proactively influence AI-generated content to maintain trust and accuracy.View reports:72Point and Purposeful Relations: Hold the Front Page: Traditional Media's Influence in the Age of AIPurposeful Relations: The Impact of Generative Relations and CommunicationsOnePoll: Trust, Truth and the Algorithm

I cannot wait for you to hear this conversation with my hypnotherapist, Kristen Eykel, the woman and the modality that have completely shifted my life. Kristen's story is wild in the best way: she went from being a supermodel in the 80s, living the full sex-drugs-rock-and-roll lifestyle, to becoming a deeply respected healer. And in this episode, she breaks down what hypnotherapy really is… beyond the clichés and way past the “quit smoking” stereotype.We talk about why some of our patterns might come from utero or even a past life and why time isn't as real as we think it is. Kristen shares why she doesn't believe you need plant medicine to access deep healing, and how hypnotherapy can take you to the same inner truths with clarity and safety.We also get into overriding fear, remembering our connectedness, and how to stay centered when the world feels heavy. Kristen explains why some souls choose harder lives, why visualization actually matters, and how to release the emotions we keep stored in our bodies. Plus: parallel realities and why no two people experience this world the same way.It's raw, mind-expanding, and one of the most transformative conversations I've had yet.A word from my sponsors:Kahlua - Find Kahlúa Dunkin Caramel Swirl at retailers nationwide, including Walmart, Total Wine, Albertsons, Kroger, Ralphs, Safeway, BevMo, Publix, and more.

What is the magical first date zone between oversharing and playing it too cool? A listener named Brian shares: "I realize I have two dating modes. Either I dump all my emotional baggage on the first date, or I stay super chill and keep everything surface level, even when I want to go deeper. I've been hurt enough times that I just don't trust people to really be there for me anymore. How do I communicate in a healthy way without either overwhelming someone or hiding completely?" In this episode, we break down what's actually happening underneath both extremes. They're not opposites; they come from the same place. We look at the difference between throwing your pain at someone and letting them discover who you really are. Plus, we share the framework that helps you build trust gradually, without becoming either the person who overshares or the person who keeps everyone at arm's length. What You'll Hear: Both protection modes come from the same wound, but one looks like radical honesty and the other looks like walls Why your nervous system isn't your enemy, it's just doing what it learned to do after being hurt The goldilocks zone: how to start small and turn up the volume as trust builds What healthy vulnerability actually looks like in practice (it's not what you think it is) How connection points, not trauma dumps, create real intimacy on dates The power of follow-up questions and ping-pong conversation over one-way vulnerability dumps Rewriting your dating story: from "I keep getting it wrong" to "I'm learning to connect" Ready to get clarity on what's working in your dating life?

Today's episode is a must-listen for every woman who has ever felt responsible for everyone else's happiness but her own. I'm joined by the incredible Beatriz Victoria Albina — a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, Breathwork Guide, and bestselling author of End Emotional Outsourcing: A Guide to Overcoming Codependent, Perfectionist and People Pleasing Habits (Hachette Balance, 2025). Béa has spent over 20 years helping women reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and step out of old patterns that keep them stuck. Her work is powerful, deeply compassionate, and incredibly freeing. This conversation goes there — childhood patterns, emotional outsourcing, nervous system regulation, codependency, and the lies perfectionism tells us. But we also talk about reclaiming joy, taking up space, and how women can finally come home to themselves. Grab your journal, because this one is filled with moments you'll want to pause, reflect, and come back to. ✨ What We Talk About in This Episode What emotional outsourcing really is — and why so many women do it without realizing How childhood conditioning shapes our adult behaviors and relationship patterns Why our nervous system often runs the show and how to finally regulate it The connection between people-pleasing and feeling unsafe in your body How somatic work helps you heal at the root instead of endlessly "managing" symptoms Rewriting the perfectionist narrative and choosing good enough Finding your joy again when you've spent years prioritizing everyone else Breaking out of codependent patterns in friendships, relationships, and work How women can become their own safe place Why being surrounded by the right people changes everything
What if you could go back and prepare for D-Day? Not to stop the betrayal from happening, but to soften the blow, steady your nervous system, and walk yourself through the darkest night of your soul with reverence, support, and a plan. In this deeply soulful Solstice episode, Lora guides you through a powerful re-imagining of D-Day using the energy of the winter solstice — the longest, darkest night of the year. Instead of bracing against the pain of betrayal, you'll learn how to “pack your bag” for the dark night of the soul: tending your body, nervous system, and subconscious so you can move through the darkness with preparation, not panic. Drawing on childbirth metaphors, subconscious re-patterning, and the natural arc from winter solstice to summer solstice, Lora walks you step-by-step into the memory of D-Day and back out again — this time as the woman you are now: wiser, more resourced, and no longer alone. You'll leave with a six-month roadmap for healing, micro-boundaries to support your body and soul, and a new understanding of why you're not broken… you're just ready for a different map. Top 3 Takeaways Why D-Day still hijacks your body (and how to change it) How betrayal trauma locks into the subconscious mind and nervous system, and why you can't just “decide to stop ruminating” or think your way out of it. The Winter Solstice Betrayal Ritual: Preparing for the Dark Night of the Soul How to “pretend” solstice is your D-Day, pack your metaphoric bag, and consciously walk yourself into the darkness with support, tools, and reverence — so your body learns that you can bear it and you will come out the other side. From Winter Solstice to Summer Solstice: A Six-Month Healing Map How to set micro-boundaries, tiny daily practices, and structures of accountability that quietly rewire your life over six months — so one day you look up and realize, “It's lighter now. I'm actually okay… and I'm not obsessing anymore.” Favorite Quote “The real tragedy of betrayal isn't the betrayal itself. It's failing to rise up afterward and reclaim your heart, your soul, your identity.” About Lora Lora Cheadle, JD, CHt is a former attorney turned betrayal recovery coach, hypnotherapist, and author who helps women rebuild their identity and reclaim their power after infidelity and profound emotional betrayal. Using her signature Life Choreography® approach, she integrates legal insight, nervous system regulation, somatic practices, and deep spiritual support to help clients move from shattered to sovereign.

This week on The Narrative, Aaron, David, and Mike break down the firestorm that erupted in Cleveland after the City Club’s January 16 event, featuring Aaron, became ground zero in a very public showdown. LGBTQ activists penned an open letter to pressure the City Club to cancel or modify the event, drawing a response from Attorney General Dave Yost. The Board met on Wednesday, and the City Club CEO Dan Moulthrop announced on Thursday that the event would proceed as planned. After the news, stay tuned for the powerhouse keynote from Carl Trueman at the 2025 Essential Summit. Trueman brilliantly uncovers the root of every cultural battle we’re facing by exposing the deeper crisis behind debates on gender, tech, and identity: the fight over what it means to be human. He shows how modern technology—from smartphones to AI—isn’t just changing how we live, but how we see ourselves. Our society has technology that is actively blurring the very boundaries of human nature. And in that confusion, movements like transgenderism and transhumanism gain ground by treating the human body as nothing more than raw material for reinvention. Trueman delivers a gripping roadmap for Christians on how to respond with clarity, conviction, and courage in a culture being reshaped by forces most people don't even notice. More About Carl Trueman Born and raised in England, Carl R. Trueman is a graduate of the Universities of Cambridge (M.A., Classics) and Aberdeen (Ph.D, Church History), and has taught on the faculties of the Universities of Nottingham and Aberdeen. In 2017-18 he was the William E. Simon Visiting Fellow in Religion and Public Life in the James Madison Program at Princeton University. Since 2018, he has served as a professor at Grove City College in the Calderwood School of Arts and Humanities. Originally a specialist in Reformation and Post-Reformation Protestant thought, more recently his work has focused on identity, critical theory, and the impact of the sexual revolution. He is a Contributing Editor at First Things and a Fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington DC. His most recent books are The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Expressive Individualism, Cultural Amnesia, and the Road to Sexual Revolution, (with Bruce Gordon) The Oxford Handbook to Calvin, and To Change All Worlds: Critical Theory from Marx to Marcuse (B and H).

" It's interesting looking back because I normalized being hungry, normalized being super tired... and when you don't know that that's not normal, you're also not necessarily open to hearing otherwise because it sounds like somebody wants to hold you back from your performance." Justine Fédronic immigrated to the US from Europe in elementary school. Before she learned English, she found a way to connect with her classmates at recess—through running. She showed talent on the run early, and a coach suggested she try for an athletic scholarship to college. She competed at Stanford, but not without some highs and lows. Fédronic signed a professional running contract before graduating college, but her running career before and after this point was riddled with chronic bone stress and soft tissue injuries. She struggled with underfueling, irregular periods, and constantly having to take time off. " A lot of college and high school, I really struggled with my mental health. And there was definitely a correlation between my stress injuries and my depression," she shares. In this conversation with Lane 9, she shares how her running story didn't go as planned, and how she's found her way back to the sport without the pressures of performance and outcomes. She has worked with some of the brands you know and love, and is now working with the nonprofit For All Mothers+. Connect with her on Instagram @jfedronic.

Everyone is using AI — that's not news. What's news is how accurate the predictions about it have been. In April 2025, a scenario called AI 2027 laid out what would happen if artificial intelligence began advancing faster than human reflexes. Eight months later, nearly every part of that forecast has already unfolded. In this episode, we unpack what happens when technology doesn't just evolve — it accelerates itself. We explore how AI has gone from creative assistant to autonomous researcher and what it means when innovation begins to outpace our ability to adapt. Inside this episode: Why AI 2027's early predictions came true months ahead of schedule How "evolution through silicon" is changing the definition of intelligence itself What the next milestone — self-improving AI — could mean for our wellbeing, jobs, and daily lives The psychology of acceleration and why our brains struggle to keep up Practical ways to stay healthy, focused, and grounded while living through the fastest technological shift in history This conversation isn't about the future of AI. It's about the pressure cooker we are already inside — and how to stay human while the pace keeps rising.

Every parent wants to feed their baby well—but finding clarity in today's system isn't always easy. In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Laura Modi, CEO and co-founder of Bobbie, to talk about the real challenges families face when it comes to feeding and why it so often feels overwhelming. Laura shares her personal journey, the moments that changed everything, and what she's learned from supporting thousands of parents through this stage. Enjoy the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why shame shows up so quickly around feeding—and how to replace it with clarity and confidence • How to navigate breastfeeding challenges without feeling like you're “failing” • What most parents don't realize about formula standards, labels, and ingredient quality • How combo feeding can ease pressure, support mental health, and support your baby's development • Why America's fragile formula system matters for every family and how to stay informed Feeding your baby should feel empowering, not confusing. I hope this conversation helps you feel more confident as you navigate this stage.

In this week's episode we're answering one of YOUR questions with a combination of expert tips and personal experience. The Question: "I'm a 35yo woman who's been married to a really good guy for the last seven years. He never pressures me or anything, but every time I don't want sex, I instantly feel like i'm being a shitty wife. I know that's some leftover ‘good girl / keep your man happy' garbage, but the guilt is still really loud. How do I stop feeling like I'm failing him every time I'm not horny?" What We Cover in This Episode: Why you never owe anyone sex. Why consent and desire are required every single time, even in a loving and committed marriage. Where the guilt comes from. How “good girl conditioning” teaches us to prioritize a partner's pleasure over our own boundaries. Obligation sex vs wanted sex. Why a supportive partner should only want intimacy you are genuinely excited about, not sex given out of pressure. How guilt impacts pleasure and connection. How anxiety, obligation, and performance mindset shut down arousal and make sex feel high stakes. What happens when you keep overriding your no's. Why ignoring your boundaries leads to resentment, disconnect, and a shrinking desire for sex. Rewriting what it means to be a good partner. Why your value is not based on a penis ejaculating, and how honoring your needs strengthens intimacy. How to support your own desire and autonomy. Tools and mindset shifts to release pressure, protect your no's, and show up with real desire when it is there. Learn more about 1:1 coaching HERE! Get Honeydew Me Merch HERE!

For years, every police conference, report and panel has hammered on about recruitment and retention best practices, especially when it comes to Gen Z. Yet at too many career fairs, the reality still looks the same: two tired cops standing behind a table of keychains and water bottles, hoping the next generation will somehow be inspired. In this episode of Policing Matters, host Jim Dudley explores how one big-city agency is finally breaking out of that pattern — blending modern marketing, faster testing pipelines and smarter academy support to turn interested prospects into successful officers. Today's guest, San Francisco Police Department Captain Sean Frost, is a 20-year veteran whose roots are in street-level policing — patrol, fugitive recovery and investigations — and now leads SFPD's recruitment efforts. Backed by the mayor's office, the city's innovation team and private-sector partners, Frost is piloting new strategies to find qualified candidates, support them through the academy and field training, and compete for both entry-level and lateral officers in a high-cost, highly scrutinized urban environment.

Send us a textWhat does it take to move one seat over and keep a winner winning? We sit down with Hilliard Darby's new head baseball coach, Andrew Ozbolt, to unpack the real work of inheriting a high-performing program: protecting standards, earning trust, and evolving without erasing what made the team great.Andrew shares how 11 years as an assistant under Hall of Famer Chris Fugitt prepared him to lead with clarity. He explains the habits that travel—punctuality, defensive communication, and small ball—and why bunts and steals still play deep in the state tournament. We get practical about facilities too: the ongoing grass vs turf debate, how a well-kept natural surface stacks up, and why reliable outdoor reps can tilt development. Inside Darby's hitting facility, he walks through winter stations, HitTrax feedback, modern pitching routines with bands and plyos, and the art of cycling groups for high-volume, high-quality work.We also go behind the clipboard on staff building. Andrew outlines what he looks for in assistants—teachers who connect, simplify, and show up year-round—and how securing a proven pitching coach was priority one. The schedule won't blink for anyone, and the league is a meat grinder loaded with champions. Andrew's definition of success is honest and actionable: compete daily, handle humbling moments, enjoy wins without rushing past them, and be ready to peak when brackets drop.If you're a coach, player, or parent who cares about player development, practice design, team culture, and winning baseball strategy, this conversation will give you tools you can use today.

In this inspiring episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss sits down with Adrienne Caldwell — a survivor, author, and advocate whose journey proves that even the darkest beginnings can lead to a life filled with purpose, peace, and hope. Adrienne opens up about a childhood marked by trauma and instability, but also the powerful turning point that set her on a path toward healing, rebuilding, and reclaiming her voice. Today, she uses her story to help others feel seen, supported, and empowered in their own healing. This conversation is emotional, courageous, and ultimately uplifting — a reminder that no matter what you've been through, it's never too late to rise, heal, and write a new chapter. Guest Bio Adrienne Caldwell is the author of the forthcoming memoir Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines — a raw and unflinching account of her journey through trauma, survival, and ultimately, healing. The book sheds light on the darkest corners of the human experience, including untreated mental illness, homelessness, foster care abuse, incest, addiction, and sexual violence, and emerges with a message of fierce resilience and unbreakable hope. More than a chronicle of pain, Unbroken is a story of identity, family, love, and finding your voice when the world refuses to listen. It's about reclaiming power and choosing purpose over despair.

Timeline Mitopure Gummies — The #1 Urolithin A supplement for energy and healthy aging, now in delicious strawberry gummies. Get 20% off at timeline.com/vanessa In today's episode, Vanessa sits down with Dr. Howard, the lead author of a brand-new PNAS study that is challenging one of the most widely accepted ideas in human metabolism. For years, many scientists believed that our bodies operate within a fixed daily calorie "budget," and that after a certain point, increasing activity doesn't increase total calorie burn. But Dr. Howard's new research suggests the story may be far more dynamic — and far more empowering — than we ever realized. OneSkin is powered by the breakthrough peptide OS-01, the first ingredient proven to reduce skin's biological age. I use the OS-01 Face and Eye formulas daily—they've transformed my skin's smoothness, firmness, and glow. Visit oneskin.co/VANESSA and use code VANESSA for 15% off your first purchase. This conversation explores what this new evidence could mean for: How we think about calorie burn Why activity matters (in ways we didn't fully understand before) The role of fueling, recovery, and energy balance What actually drives fat loss and body recomposition How to train smarter, not harder Mentioned in this episode: Physical activity is directly associated with total energy expenditure without evidence of constraint or compensation — published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
