Before she was a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, Jewel was a homeless teenager fighting to survive. Her journey from instability to global recognition is a masterclass in resilience and radical accountability. After skyrocketing to fame in the '90s (which, she quickly realized, wasn't really her thing) Jewel turned her pain into purpose through her mental health advocacy and the Inspiring Children's Foundation. In this episode, Jewel and Victoria dive deep into how to stop feeling like a victim of your circumstances, why “don't waste a good disaster” has become her life mantra, practical tools to reframe anxiety into something useful, and how to build true resilience without losing trust in the magic of the universe. Tune in to be grounded, inspired, and reminded of your own power to transform hardship into healing.Connect with Jewel: @jewelLearn more about the Inspiring Children Foundation: inspiringchildren.org// SPONSORS // Crunchmaster: Find Crunchmaster at a store near you!

What if your biggest competitive advantage isn't how technologically advanced you are — but how psychologically agile your teams are?On today's episode, we sit down with Matt Garman — CEO of Amazon Web Services — to dig into the leadership frameworks behind one of the world's most innovative companies. We cover his “one-way vs. two-way doors” decision model, why “minimum lovable product” beats perfectionism, and how to push autonomy down while keeping trust and security high.We also explore what's really slowing AI adoption (and why replacing junior employees with AI is a terrible idea), why documents beat slide decks for high-stakes calls, and the long-view energy bets—including nuclear—that AWS believes will shape innovation and sustainability. Along the way, Matt shares the personal side of leading at speed: family dinners, golf as a reset, and the “support then challenge” cadence that helps teams sustain pace without burning out.What you'll learn:How to use the “one-way vs. two-way doors” framework to make faster, smarter decisionsWhy optimism (not naïveté) is a core competitive advantage for innovatorsThe key to shipping a minimum lovable product customers actually wantThe real frictions in AI adoption—and why replacing juniors with AI backfiresWhy long-horizon energy bets (including nuclear) matter for innovation and sustainabilityIf you're leading in a fast-moving world—or want to—this conversation offers practical frameworks and a shot of grounded optimism to help your team move faster, smarter, and with more heart.__________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!

Welcome to a new episode where we explore the cost of spiritual awakening, particularly in our relationships. Can personal growth and increased understanding come at the expense of our connections with a friend? Let's discuss the importance of self help and empathy as we navigate these complex dynamics.The Be Positive Podcast is your weekly reminder that no matter what you're going through, there's always a reason to stay hopeful, stay focused, and stay positive.Through real talk, uplifting messages, and personal stories from listeners around the world, I'll help you tap into your inner strength, shift your mindset, and see life from a brighter perspective. Whether it's finding purpose, overcoming self-doubt, or navigating the energy shifts of a changing world, each episode is packed with insight, encouragement, and good vibes.
#196: What if the peace you're protecting is actually performance? We go straight at the cost of staying quiet—how it starts in childhood, mutates into hyper-independence, and shows up as “I'm fine” until it explodes. Along the way, we unpack why so many of us can hold firm at work yet struggle to speak up in the relationships that matter most, and we offer compassionate ways to trade avoidance for clarity without lighting everything on fire.We break down the moment before a hard conversation—racing heart, tense shoulders, runaway scenarios—and show how silence fuels resentment and self-doubt. You'll hear candid stories about naming hurt with family, practicing tone and timing, and redefining confrontation as a bid for understanding rather than a guaranteed fight. We talk about the illusions we protect by staying quiet, the fear of finding out who someone truly is, and the hard truth that if honesty ends a bond, it was running on borrowed time.You'll leave with practical scripts and mindset tools: start in safe spaces, use simple “When X, I felt Y, I need Z” language, slow your pace, and allow time for repair. We also dig into the overthinker's loop—how missing information breeds stories—and offer a grounding line to stop narrative spirals. If your voice has been on mute, this is your gentle push to choose discomfort now over distress later, to speak honestly even when your hands shake, and to trust that what's meant for you won't require you to be less than yourself.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who's holding something in, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us.

We are pregnant! In today's special episode, we want to dive into our fertility story, how we planned for this season, and what shifted in our hearts and lives leading up to trying. I open up about her early fears around motherhood, how family jokes once shaped her identity, and the moment she knew Omar would be an incredible father. We talk about praying for guidance, timing, and acceptance — and how those prayers brought a deep sense of peace. We also want to share the unexpected way this journey began: a planned fast interrupted by getting sick, a wedding we stayed home from, and Vanessa's Oura Ring signaling that something was different. You'll hear the story of the very earlypregnancy test, how she surprised Omar at the airport, and his reaction when we took another test at home just to be sure. From the beginning, we made the intentional choice to tell our community and loved ones right away, so we could walk through this experience with the people we care about, not in secrecy or fear. I want to talk through the supplements I'm taking, the changes in my energy, and what nutrition and movement look like right now — including six smaller meals, simple foods, ginger and peppermint tea, and keeping 10k steps and workouts while paying close attention to my body's signals. And yes… the Mexican flavor cravings are very real. We're honored to share this part of our story with you.

In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, Molly explores how your environment—your physical space, routines, and sensory cues—quietly shapes your drinking habits. From the shape of your glass to the spot you sit in at night, environmental triggers can powerfully reinforce auto-pilot behavior.But here's the key: these external cues are not the full story. They don't create your drinking habit—they support it. Real change comes from understanding why you're drinking in the first place and learning to respond to that emotional need in a new way.If you're ready to interrupt automatic drinking patterns and create more space for intention, this episode offers practical experiments and key mindset shifts to help you get started.What You'll Learn:The science behind “cue-induced behavior” and why your brain responds to drinking cues before you even decide to drinkHow physical environments and sensory cues reinforce habit loopsWhy changing your environment won't change your desire—but can support itFive practical, science-based experiments to reduce drinking triggers and increase awarenessHow to use those experiments as a bridge to deeper internal workThe emotional questions to ask when you interrupt a habit loopWhy lasting change requires more than just tactics—it requires managing your thoughtsExperiments to Try This Week:Swap Your Glass – Use a different shape or style to disrupt routineChange Your Location – Don't drink in your usual “drinking spot”Clear Visual Cues – Remove bottles, tools, and reminders from sightSwap the Soundtrack – Introduce new music or lighting to shift moodCreate a Wind-Down Zone – Design a new space for tea, reading, or journaling and anchor it to relaxation instead of alcoholLow risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

N.C. Doomers AITTALA Reveal New Music Video “Isolation”Doomed & Stoned DebutsSix full-lengths, two EPs, strong and steady since 2008. Dang. What keeps North Carolina trio AITTALA going? Sheer compulsion for music making is my guess. There's nothing like the experience of the real thing, despite the obscene ease and seductive sophistication of AI fakery. To hear and feel heavy music live from their minds and voices and hands of real human beings just like you – well, there's just nothing like it. Bands with stubborn longevity like Aittala serve as an inspiration to the scene. Pick up an instrument, get to jamming, let your voice be heard.If this is your first encounter with the band, perhaps “Isolation” is as good an introduction as any. Mysterious strumming, powerful emphatic chords, and wall-shaking disruption clears the path for soulful, soaring guitar soloing and somber Gothic intonations.The words are relatable to everyone who has felt isolation in the wake of family breakdown, fallen idols, and the loss of true community. We are increasingly siloed into a lonely, virtual existence, housed conveniently in cages of wood and plastic and concrete, subsisting on artificial, processed, and packaged goods churned out by humanless factories. It's a nightmare that H.G. Wells, Orwell, and Huxley hinted at but could have scarcely envisioned in its nihilistic, nightmarish reality.Lyrics are stained with regret, lamenting a life devoid of meaning, where technology has eclipsed talent. The machine has been slowly replacing us all for generations, now accelerating humanity into the unknown. With little to believe in and reality on a shakey basis, more and more people are wondering, “What's the point?” and losing themselves in a soul-crushing death spiral of drugs, alcohol, greed, violence, debauchery, and inevitable madness.Born with an expiration dateBlessed with the curse you cannot escapeThe taste is so bitter sweetWhen you learn you've become obsoleteAittala sees clearly in these desperate times, which makes their sound all the more compelling. Witness the gravity and might of “Isolation” now, as Doomed & Stoned brings you its world premiere. It comes from their new EP, “Ill-Gotten Gains' (2025), available soon on Exitus Stratagem RecordsClick Here to Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!

This retrograde is about understanding what is in your shadow that prevents your expansion. Not to get rid of it, but to assimilate it. To bring it in and let it be a part of the soil in which you grow from . Get your favorite notebook and any flashes of information or inspiration, write it down. The breadcrumbs will lead you.

This conversation is raw, practical, and a reminder that progress looks different at every level. Upgrade your habits before they start running you.Learn more about:
Most Christians try harder to be “good,” but end up feeling like failures. What if sanctification—the process of becoming more like Jesus—isn't about self-help, but about God's help? In this video, we explore how real spiritual growth happens through God's power, not our performance. Sanctification isn't a checklist; it's a partnership between God's Spirit and our willingness to follow Him.If you've ever wondered why you can't seem to change no matter how hard you try, or why faith feels exhausting instead of freeing, this message will challenge and encourage you. We'll unpack what the Bible says about grace, obedience, spiritual transformation, and the Holy Spirit's role in your growth.Whether you're a new Christian, a skeptic exploring Jesus, or someone who's been walking with God for years, this episode will help you understand the difference between trying to be better and being transformed by God's love.
