Jill Rowe's creative path has been shaped by art, hospitality, and an enduring connection to nature. She began her career in fashion and the NYC art world before turning to film production and culinary work, opening her own restaurant in upstate New York and later running Danny Meyer's Union Square Café . Cooking, community, and the art of caring for people through the senses became the foundation of her work.Seeking a life more rooted in land and craft, Jill moved to the Hudson Valley, where she met her husband, photographer and author Matthew Benson, who restored Stonegate Farm into a vibrant ecosystem of organic produce, botanicals, and creative living. There, Jill co-founded Cultivate Apothecary, a skincare and wellness brand that unites her skills as a chef, sommelier, formulator, and gardener. Working directly with the botanicals she grows, she creates products and rituals designed to reconnect people to nature, nourishment, and themselves.Website:  CULTIVATE APOTHECARYUSE DISCOUNT CODE: https://cultivateapothecary.com/discount/spacewithcody20FRIENDS, THIS IS THE BEST HOLIDAY GIFT EVER! ✨ Thank you for tuning into Create the Space with Cody Maher! ✨I hope this episode sparked something in you—a shift, an insight, a reminder to create space for what truly matters.

Learn what cadence actually is, why 180 SPM is useful (but not an overnight fix), and how elasticity drills + metronome practice help you pick up rhythm without blowing up your aerobic effort. Coaches Caroline & Valerie break cadence down into simple progressions, explain why older runners stiffen (and how to reverse it), and give practical drills you can use today to make your easy runs feel easier and your speed work more effective.✅ Key takeaways ✅ Cadence = steps per minute; the magic zone many coaches reference is ~180 SPM but you progress there slowly. ✅ Building muscle elasticity (hops, ball-of-foot drills) reduces impact and delays fatigue — it's trainable, not only genetic. ✅ Use short cadence drills + a metronome before trying long stretches at higher SPM — don't force 180 overnight. ✅ Keep time-based long runs (e.g., two-hour runs) rather than chasing an arbitrary mile total if that's safer for you. ✅ Stop, reset, do a short drill if your form drifts on a long run — small mid-run corrections beat long recoveries. ✅ Test fueling and cadence in training, not on race day — everything is personal; experiment, measure, repeat.▶️ Free 30-Day RunRX Reboot - Skill , Strength & Self-Care https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0N-GZ0AosI&list=PLDPcF8ZrDdILC8bYyn2zR-4xvqKRzp2re ▶️ Join the RunRX Membership https://runrx.fit/join-runrxstrong

We've got more forward movement in the changing of eras. Right now, it's important to diligently and thoroughly clear out as much residual suffering as you can so that you're open to the acceleration of experimentation and the opening up consciousness in the coming months.

In this conversation, Laura welcomes Dr. La-Toya Gaines, Founder & CEO of Family Matters Counseling and Psychological Services, to explore what it truly means to practice whole self-care—beyond the trends, beyond the myths, and beyond the surface. La-Toya expands the definition of self-care beyond activities and indulgence to include rest, boundaries, community support, emotional tending, identity work, and the practices that allow us to be fully human. Additionally, Laura and La-Toya examine the deep connection between the Strong Black Woman archetype and self-neglect. They unpack how this trope shapes our labor, our silence, and our expectations of ourselves; and how whole self-care disrupts it. Together, they examine the emotional, psychological, physical, and communal layers of care that Black women need and deserve. For those who feel they've been neglecting themselves, La-Toya offers compassionate first steps to reconnect, rebuild, and recommit to their wellbeing. This heartfelt conversation offers both grounding insight and practical guidance for anyone ready to reconnect with themselves, disrupt harmful tropes, and reclaim self-care as a path to healing and liberation.   About Dr. La-Toya Dr. La-Toya S. Gaines is a licensed psychologist, speaker, and best-selling author dedicated to empowering Black women to prioritize their mental health and well-being. As the founder of Family Matters Counseling and Psychological Services, Inc., she offers therapy, intensives, and group programs designed to help Black women break free from the "Strong Black Woman" narrative. Dr. Gaines is a sought-after speaker, presenting at national conferences and corporate trainings on mental wellness, workplace mental health, and burnout prevention. She authored the Amazon best-selling "Nourishing the Strong Black Woman" Self-Care Journal and is working to expand its reach through licensing. Her work has been featured at the Strong Black Woman Redefined Conference, the Black Girls Picnic, and numerous other events. Passionate about transforming mental health spaces, Dr. Gaines equips individuals and organizations with the tools to foster emotional wellness, prevent burnout, and create sustainable self-care practices.

We often hear the "mantra" to move fast and break things...But what happens when the thing that breaks is you?For many service design professionals, this is the reality of their calendar: back-to-back meetings, a rush to deliver, and very little space to actually think. In many organizations, there is a culture that views this busyness as a badge of honor.But our guest in this episode, Rachael Dietkus, has quite a different -and healthier- approach.She has a rule written on a post-it note right next to her desk: "No meetings before 10 AM".This might sound like a luxury, doesn't it? But Rachael, who's a licensed clinical social worker and designer, argues that rules like this are actually a professional necessity.Rachael is the founder of Social Workers Who Design, where she is bridging the gap between the deep, ethical frameworks of social work and the often frantic pace of design.This is an eye-opening episode where we explore why service design might be missing a "manual" that social workers have had for decades. You'll hear about:Why we need to move beyond just empathy to genuine care and compassion.The importance of having a structured "safe space" to process your work (social workers spend at least 1 hour in supervision for every 40 hours of work!).Why setting hard boundaries is actually a sign of competence and professionalism, not weakness.So, if you sometimes feel the weight of the work is getting too much and you're looking for ways to create a healthier, more sustainable work environment, this conversation offers practical clues.As we are almost wrapping up the year, it's an important reminder that reflection on our work isn't a nice to have, but a healthy habit we should all embrace.Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact.Be well,~ Marc--- [ 1.

Da qualche tempo sto osservando i nuovi segnali che il mio corpo mi manda. Oggi ti racconto le mie riflessioni.Dopo i 40 anni il self-care non è più un optional, né una coccola da ritagliarsi quando avanza tempo. È la base su cui si regge tutto: energia, pazienza, lucidità, presenza.Eppure nessuno ce lo insegna davvero.In questo episodio torniamo a parlare di salute in un modo nuovo, più maturo e più vero.Non per aggiungere un'altra cosa da fare, ma per ricordarci che quando iniziamo a prenderci cura di noi—sul serio—tutto il resto cambia: il nostro umore, la relazione con i figli, il modo in cui affrontiamo le giornate.Se il tuo corpo chiede attenzioni, se vuoi sentirti di nuovo bene “dentro la tua vita”, questo episodio è il tuo punto di ripartenza. Che tu abbia 30, 40 o 50 anni, non rimandare.Lascia una recensione e condividiSe il podcast Mamma Superhero ti aiuta, ti fa sentire meno sola e ti fa compagnia nella relazione con tuo figlio, ti chiedo di lasciare una recensione e condividerlo con altri genitori.

The origin of the "Daisy Dukes" and the show Dukes of Hazard. (3:00) They discuss how information about topics like climate change has changed, and that we are always learning. Vinnie relates the belief in Santa to the belief in what is possible. (13:00) We tell ourselves things we want to be true, so we can get what we want. (16:30) Oral semiglutide's effects are supposed to be as effective as the injection, but there are still side effects. (21:00) "The Decaf study." They discuss decaf and caffeinated coffee and whether it is harmful enough. Taco Bell has its own soda flavor, Baja Blast. (28:00) They just launched their own pie based on the same flavor. People think they can get away with one thing if they believe they are compensating elsewhere, but that doesn't always work that way. CICO, or taking a GLP-1, is an example of this; people will indulge, thinking that the running or the GLP-1 will take care of the fallout.

Was Jesus kind of a stand-up comedian?I mean think about it... A priest, a rabbi, and Jesus walked into a bar. Only Jesus recognized the setup for a joke. I never really thought about Jesus being funny or not. I mean, we've heard the stories 1000 times and... I usually smile at the funnier parts, but I never exactly said, Jesus is really funny!Then I found a little book that really opened my eyes.I will share that with you today as we talk about how funny, profoundly funny, Jesus was. We sure could use a few laughs right now.Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show

Millions of women say the same thing in their late 30s and 40s “I don't feel like myself anymore.” Fatigue grows, stress tolerance collapses, brain fog hits, and everyday tasks suddenly require more effort. Yet most are told it's “normal aging,” “just stress,” or “anxiety.”In this hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with functional medicine expert and bestselling author Dr. Mariza Snyder to ask the hard questions about perimenopause, what it is, when does perimenopause start, and why rage, irritability, and cognitive changes are often the earliest symptoms women experience.Together, they unpack why perimenopause is widely misdiagnosed, why progesterone decline shows up long before hot flashes or missed periods, how estrogen fluctuations affect brain function, and why so many women feel like their identity, mood, and capacity are suddenly slipping away.From mood swings, brain fog, and sleep crashes to metabolic slowdowns and rising visceral fat, this conversation reframes perimenopause symptoms as hormone-driven neurological and physiological shifts — not personal weakness, aging, or lack of willpower.You will learn what perimenopause is, what age perimenopause starts, why rage and irritability show up first, and how to track early hormone changes through menstrual patterns, symptoms, biometrics, and stress physiology. Dr. Taz and Dr. Mariza also share lifestyle tools, boundaries, morning and evening routines, and targeted support that help stabilize brain energy, mood, and metabolic health during this transition.Dr. Taz and Dr. Mariza discuss: • What is perimenopause and why it hits earlier than women expect • When does perimenopause start and what age perimenopause typically begins • Why perimenopause rage is real and often the first warning sign • Perimenopause brain fog, cognitive shifts, and declining stress tolerance • Progesterone decline, estrogen fluctuations, and why hormones become unpredictable • Perimenopause vs aging: why symptoms are dismissed or misdiagnosed • Mood swings, irritability, fatigue, and the identity shift many women feel • Early metabolic changes in perimenopause and why belly fat increases • How to track symptoms, cycles, HRV, sleep, and biomarkers for early clues • Tools women can use: routines, nervous system regulation, boundaries, lifestyle resets • When progesterone or estrogen support can make a meaningful difference • Why community and sisterhood become critical for emotional resilienceAbout Dr. Mariza Snyder Dr. Mariza Snyder is a functional practitioner, women's health expert, hormone educator, and bestselling author of The Perimenopause Revolution. With over 15 years of clinical experience, she helps women navigate perimenopause and midlife with clarity, confidence, and science-based tools that support hormone balance, brain health, emotional resilience, and metabolic vitality. Her work empowers women to understand what perimenopause is, recognize early symptoms, and take back control of their health with practical strategies and integrative support.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Mariza Snyder:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmariza/Podcast: Energized with Dr. Mariza Book: The Perimenopause Revolution Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

Today's quick episode is all about the one thing most high achievers avoid but desperately need: space to think.So many of us stay busy out of habit, even when we say we want change. But your next level doesn't come from doing more—it comes from creating room for clarity, intuition, and the ideas you can't access when you're running nonstop.I'm sharing a powerful question I'm giving all my clients for 2026:If a billion-dollar CEO took over your business and life, what are the first three things they'd remove from your plate?To grow, you need four things: clarity, confidence, space, and delegation. And if you think you don't have time for any of this—I promise, your screen time says otherwise. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn! 

Today and for the rest of the year, I am offering out one tiny little micro practice each week for you… for us, if I'm being honest… To take into our days and say “I love you lots!” to ourselves.In this one, we're seeing how it feels to celebrate a creative win.Sending you love today

Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms and rediscover the joy of the season—not just for your family, but for you too. Just fifteen minutes a day. You've got this.

Your personal brand isn't just about what you deliver. It's how you show up. If you're exhausted, stressed to the point of breaking, or gripping your way through the week, that comes through too. No amount of polish can hide what's happening underneath when you're not actually taking care of yourself.Jessie Spressart gets this. As founder and managing director of Optia Consulting, she helps law firms build cultures where people can do excellent work and be well at the same time. Her core belief is simple: doing your job well and taking care of yourself aren't two separate conversations. They're two sides of the same coin.In this episode of Branding Room Only, Paula and Jessie unpack what really stops professionals from prioritizing their well-being and how stress quietly builds long before it becomes a crisis. Jessie shares practical resets you can use in five minutes or less, and explains why chasing perfection undermines the consistency your brand actually needs. They also dig into what it takes for leaders to get more comfortable talking about mental health, and why your brand suffers when what you think, feel, and do are out of alignment.  1:19 — Jessie on personal brand, her three words, and her favorite quotes5:44 — How moving from New Jersey to Louisville shaped her7:48 — Jessie's path from music historian to medieval history to law11:14 — How a temp job as a legal secretary became 13 years at a firm12:28 — The move from legal secretary to professional development13:56 — Starting Optia Consulting in 2019 before the pandemic15:44 — The shift from management training to well-being and mental health19:42 — Why personal branding (and well-being) is about consistency, not perfection22:09 — The biggest obstacles lawyers face around prioritizing well-being26:22 — Shifting well-being from a program to part of the culture28:39 — Mental Health Essentials for Leaders and why leaders must get conversant33:23 — Stress and energy tools that take minutes, not hours41:39 — Building a scaffolding of practices before you hit crisis43:29 — Brain, body, behavior — and how all three show up in your brand45:00 — Congruency and why misalignment kills your personal brand50:02 — The part of her brand Jessie will never compromiseMentioned In Self-Care Isn't Separate: Why Your Well-Being Shapes Your Brand with Jessie SpressartOptia Consulting LinkedInSign up for Upcoming WebinarsLearn More About Paula's Personal Branding Strategy Session OfferFollow & Review: Help others find the podcast.

Motherhood is often sold as “natural” and intuitive - but for so many women, it feels overwhelming, confusing and nothing like they expected. In this episode of A Millennial Mind, I sit down with parenting expert Zoe Blaskey to explore the real, science-backed identity shift of motherhood, from hormonal changes and brain remodelling to the emotional load no one prepares us for. We talk about why becoming a mum can feel like a second adolescence, how societal pressure fuels burnout, and why guilt shows up even when we're doing our best. Zoe shares practical tools for setting boundaries, finding yourself again, strengthening your partnership, and making motherhood feel lighter, calmer and more intentional. If you're a mum, planning to be one, or simply curious about the truth behind the transition into motherhood, this conversation will help you feel seen, supported and less alone.

Episode 2730 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino host guests for a call-in show to discuss steps into NSNG, the need to "flip the script," and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/12/flip-the-script-episode-2730 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Flip the Script Vinnie just got back from Barbados, his first real vacation in a while. (3:00) He shares a story of how the locals were friendly and helpful. He didn't, however, engage with a pina colada as planned. The first caller is Ty. He got to meet Anna at a fundraising comedy show, and it was better than Disneyland. (17:00) He and his partner, Michelle, are members of the VIP group and love the community. (19:00) Ty's question: Summarize for newcomers to NSNG, the easiest first step one can take when starting. Anna: Start with your favorite proteins and build around that. Grilling and stovetop first—quicker and easier to get into. (25:00) Vinnie reminds you to be mindful, but avoid being carb-phobic. Cruciferous veggies are your friend. (29:00) Second call-in guest is Trish: Trish has been NSNG off and on for years. She is struggling to get back into it mentally. They discuss various reasons. Be careful of the story you tell yourself. You need to flip the script in your head. (40:00) Leslie is starting her own trail mix company with clean ingredients. (43:00) She's done a lot of research, and it'll be especially great for camping and hiking. Nutrition and Meds Amy is the next caller, and she has a nutrition question.

Offer your magic where it can land, because you can only help those who are ready. In this client session, we explore the tender heartbreak of being the fixer, the one who loves so deeply that she carries responsibilities that were never hers to begin with. Together we look at how years of emotional weight, unspoken expectations, and the urge to rescue others can settle into the body as exhaustion, illness, or a blocked intuitive channel. What she shares about her family, her heart, and her journey reveals a truth many sensitive, empathic people know too well. Love becomes heavy when we keep offering it to those who cannot hold it. Join us in this session as we talk about the grief of letting others walk their own path, what it means to honor your gift without overgiving, and how stepping into your purpose requires releasing the weight that never belonged to you.

Self-care isn't always about adding more to your skin care routine or journaling regimen; often, it starts with doing less. It's a simple, therapeutic reframe: what if the best thing you can do for your well-being, or your finances, is take something off your plate? If you're craving a low-maintenance life that actually supports your mental and financial health, this is your invitation to try a new and much gentler approach. In this episode, financial therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin explores self-care by subtraction. She shares how simplifying your money life can ease burnout, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect with what actually matters.READ THIS INSTEADhttps://www.mindmoneybalance.com/blogandvideos/financial-self-care-by-subtraction

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest,Tara Chalakani. The two talk about the evolution and impact of Preferred Behavioral Health Group, the importance of authentic relationships in nonprofit leadership, and the powerful role of self-care and trauma-informed culture in supporting employees and clients. In this episode, we discuss: How a small local operation launched in 1978 turned into a $39 million organization with 500 team members—by chasing the right grants and growing programs that truly matter to the community. What sets Preferred apart is its culture—rooted in excellence, integrity, and compassion. You can see it in the way staff stick around and in the industry awards they've picked up, like being named one of New Jersey's "Best Places to Work. When conversations about women's leadership, self-care, and trauma-informed workplaces come up, both Tara Chalakani and Ivy Slater share what it really means to lead by example—and why you have to pour from a full cup to do it well. Why nonprofit leadership in mental health matters now more than ever—because the pandemic pushed mental health to the forefront, breaking down stigma and sparking a national conversation about the care people really need. How Tara Chalakani shifts the idea of nonprofits as competitors and instead focuses on working together, showing how collaboration can better serve the shared mission of improving mental health. Dr. Tara Chalakani is a national mental health expert and dynamic leader. As the CEO of Preferred Behavioral Health Group, Dr. Chalakani leads a team of 500 employees providing quality mental health care, substance use treatment, and prevention services to almost 30,000 individuals a year, across New Jersey. In addition, Dr. Chalakani maintains a private psychotherapy practice and is currently an appointed Associate Professor at the Hackensack University School of Medicine, Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health. She has also taught Psychology and Mental Health Counseling curricula at the undergraduate and graduate level. Dr. Chalakani holds a doctoral degree in psychology with a concentration in behavioral health leadership, a master's degree in mental health counseling, and undergraduate degrees in nursing and psychology. All of her advanced degrees were earned while raising her children and working full-time. Dr. Chalakani is a frequent guest on national and local media outlets, public speaker, and co-host of the Welloff Podcast through iHeart Media. Dr. Chalakani is a regular contributor to Forbes, and the inaugural leader of the Forbes Nonprofit Council Women Executives group. She is most proud of her Puerto Rican heritage and her humble beginnings in Newark, NJ. All of her successes were achieved despite all the odds being stacked against her. For this reason, she is a champion of women, the marginalized, and strives to be a person that offers others a fighting chance at being who they were destined to become.
