Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performance often leads to pressure, bracing, and identity drift. This episode reveals how high achievers move from survival-driven excellence into grounded, high-capacity presence. Learn why reducing identity load—not adding discipline—creates real freedom.Why does high performance eventually feel like pressure instead of possibility?In this episode, Julie unpacks the identity and nervous system map behind the shift from high performer to High Capacity Human, showing why bracing becomes your default and how alignment—not more discipline—creates the internal expansion you've been craving.You'll learn how three types of load quietly accumulate beneath your success:• Cognitive Load — the tasks you track, manage, and anticipate• Emotional Load — the responsibilities you hold for others• Identity Load — the version of you that performs instead of expressesTogether, these loads create the pressure, sympathetic activation, and identity margin that make even good seasons feel heavier than they should.Julie breaks down the difference between negative drive (pressure, vigilance, survival) and positive drive (presence, grounded clarity, internal safety), offering a transformational reframe:Capacity isn't what you produce —It's who you become when your life and identity finally match.This episode helps high-capacity humans name:• why they brace even when nothing is wrong• why performance feels safer than presence• why approval, excellence, and responsibility became identity• why calm feels unfamiliar• the emotional and physiological signs of identity margin• how reducing identity load increases internal capacity• why capacity begins where bracing endsThis conversation also clarifies why mindset work and productivity tools are insufficient for true change.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) goes deeper — past habits, past hacks, past performance patterns — into the root of who you are.It's not another strategy.It's the foundational identity shift that makes every other tool effective again.Micro Recalibration (Individuals + Teams)Ask yourself:“Which version of me is carrying the most load — and which part of that load is no longer mine?”Notice:• What shifts in your posture or breath when you step into that version?• What would 2% less bracing feel like in that moment?Team Extension:“What unspoken expectations shape how we perform — and what would change if we valued presence over pressurIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

(Episode #312) The cocoon appears when the old way of being can no longer hold who you are becoming. In this guided meditation, I invite you into the cocoon, a gentle inner space where you do not have to figure anything out. You are simply asked to arrive, soften, and allow the next version of you to take shape in its own time. This practice creates space for old identities, habits, and ways of surviving to loosen. Inside the cocoon, your inner world reorganises naturally, guided by intuition, awareness, and the deeper intelligence that has always known the way forward. This meditation is for you if you are: • Moving through change or transition • Feeling called to slow down rather than push • Ready to release what no longer fits • Wanting to reconnect with your inner knowing Listen in a space where you feel supported and allow yourself to move at your own pace. The cocoon is not a delay, it is the moment where becoming begins. Take my FREE quiz! What's your intuitive style?

Thrive, a global technology outsourcing provider, is pursuing a $1 billion market position by the end of 2029, following significant revenue growth and 27 acquisitions since its inception. The company is focusing on enhancing its service offerings, particularly in managed artificial intelligence services, through a $100 million investment in its next-gen 3.0 platform. This shift raises critical questions for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) regarding who controls decision-making in IT operations as AI begins to play a more active role in execution rather than merely advisory functions. The integration of AI into managed services could lead to a concentration of power upstream, potentially undermining the authority and accountability of MSPs.Recent data on IT leadership diversity reveals that representation has stagnated, with 83% of IT leaders being white and over 78% male. This lack of diversity in leadership roles can create strategic blind spots, particularly as technology evolves rapidly. The report indicates that while there has been some improvement in gender representation among larger companies, racial diversity remains largely unchanged. This stability in leadership demographics may limit the perspectives necessary for effective technology governance, especially in a landscape increasingly influenced by AI and automation.Additional developments include the launch of the HiPori Partner Program, which aims to enhance secure mobile access for resellers and MSPs, and TD Cinex's AI Game Plan Workshop designed to assist partners in implementing AI solutions for their customers. These initiatives reflect a growing trend among technology providers to standardize outcomes and streamline processes, which may inadvertently reduce the differentiation and authority of MSPs as they adopt these frameworks.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the implications of these developments are significant. As AI-driven execution becomes more prevalent, MSPs must redefine their responsibility and authority to avoid unpriced liabilities. The current landscape suggests that those who can clearly articulate control and accountability in automated environments will have a competitive advantage. Ignoring these shifts could lead to operational risks and customer dissatisfaction, emphasizing the need for MSPs to adapt their strategies in response to the evolving technological landscape.

In this episode, I sit down with Shannon Hoff, a seasoned mortgage pro who just made a career move that many loan officers quietly think about but rarely act on: shifting from mortgage banker to mortgage broker. Shannon spent 20 years on the banking side, working with only six companies over two decades — and two of those closed their doors. In an industry known for turnover, her track record of stability is rare. That's exactly why her decision to make the switch is such a powerful story. We dig into: What finally pushed her to explore the broker world The biggest surprises (good and bad) after leaving the banking model The key differences she wishes she'd understood earlier How control, product diversity, and borrower solutions factored into her move What she'd tell any loan officer considering the same jump Shannon's journey is honest, grounded, and refreshingly drama-free — no burning bridges, no "banker bashing," just real insight from someone who took the leap after two decades of loyalty. If you're a loan officer wondering whether the broker channel is worth exploring, this episode is like a flashlight in a dark attic… except with fewer spider webs.

Learning to embrace the winter It's not a surprise that many people dread winter. The teeth-chattering temperatures, snow shoveling, and darkness of the winter months provide plenty of reasons why. But some communities in the far north in places like Tromso, Norway, have learned to embrace their climates and actually enjoy the winter months and stretches of darkness. One health psychologist says it all starts with a shift in mindset. Kari Leibowitz writes in "How to Winter" that learning to not view the winter months in a negative light can lead to us finding more joy and fulfillment and increasing overall happiness. She joins the "Sound of Ideas" on Thursday to explain more.

Why do high-achievers feel perpetually behind, even while consuming more content than ever? In this conversation, Pat Flynn explains the trap of “overlearning” and how it quietly keeps us stuck in motion without progress. You'll learn how to shift from “just-in-case” learning to “just-in-time” learning, create real momentum with a simple four-step framework, and protect what matters most with practical boundaries. Along the way, Pat shares how these principles helped him build multiple successful businesses (including a Pokémon channel with millions of followers) without sacrificing his family, health, or joy.Memorable Quotes“We all, in a way, are not just our overlearning, but we're getting over-inspired. We're so connected with so many amazing people out there who teach us this and push us over here, and then we're pulled over this way. We're spread so thin it's we're we're not seeing any results in our own life.”“Now we all have access to all the same kind of information, but we're still treating it as if it's scarce…However, we now live in a buffet line of information… and we're not quite evolved to absorb all of this because we're stuffing our plates full. Not only are we getting bloated and and and slowed down, but we're also getting force-fed on these platforms.”“This is the difference between ‘just-in-case learning,' which is what we've all been doing, and ‘just-in-time learning,' which is learning what you need to know to just take that next step. Because truly the action of taking that next step, the results of that one way or another—whether there are good results or bad results—can teach you so much more than just absorbing this information and never taking any action at all.” “[Silence] allows me to be with myself and to digest the things that I've already learned, to think about my priorities and the things I've already committed to. It allows me to make creative connections between things that I have already picked up instead of just getting more puzzle pieces to try to figure out where they go.”“I mean I was always taught that again, ‘The more you know the more successful you'll be,' and there's always seemingly opportunities to inject more of that learning. And it has this sort of fake productivity that goes along with it, because it is only truly productive, in my opinion, when you actually put into action those things that you do read or listen to or watch.”“At our authors retreat, a theme across most of the people there was not optimizing for revenue, not optimizing for scale, but optimizing for peace. And that was huge to think about.”“If I give myself five months to learn, I'm gonna take five months to learn it. If I give myself five hours to learn, I'm gonna take five hours to learn it. So I almost use time as a tool to help me get to the point of action and then understanding sooner.”“I've developed this rule called the 20% Itch Rule, and that is, out of all the things you do, 80% of your time is dedicated to the things you've already committed to, the things that, the responsibilities you have, the things that you've already said, yes to. The last 20% of time, allocate for curiosity, for play, for experimentation.”Key TakeawaysOverlearning Is a Hidden Productivity Trap. Constant consumption creates a sense of progress without producing results—and often adds more “to-dos” than your life can hold.Shift from “Just-in-Case” to “Just-in-Time.” Learn only what you need for the next step, then take action. Real learning accelerates through doing.Use the 4-Step Lean Learning Cycle. Identify the next step → choose one resource → implement → review. Repeat.Silence Helps You Digest What You Already Know. Pat's “silent car” habit creates space for integration, creativity, and clarity.Watch for “Junk Sparks.” Many ideas are just distractions dressed up as opportunity—especially when algorithms reduce the friction to buy, click, or binge.Try the “20% Itch Rule.” Dedicate 80% of your time to current commitments and responsibilities, and reserve 20% for curiosity, experimentation, and play—without blowing up your life.Optimize for Peace, Not Scale. More revenue isn't always worth the hidden cost. A Double Win means there's still room for what makes you feel most alive.ResourcesSmart Passive Income (Pat's Business)Superfans (Book)Lean Learning (Book)Watch on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/aLp6hHTrYQsThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound
Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____What if the intensity you've chased in relationships wasn't love, but dopamine?Amanda McCracken is an award winning journalist, endurance athlete, and intimacy researcher who was diagnosed with ADHD at 36, long after she had built a successful career. From the outside, her life looked accomplished and disciplined. Inside, she struggled with distraction, emotional intensity, anxiety, and a lifelong pattern of romantic fixation. In this episode, Amanda shares how ADHD showed up quietly in her life, from trichotillomania and overthinking to using extreme exercise as a form of self regulation, long before she had language for what was actually happening.The conversation centers on limerence, a psychological state of intense romantic longing marked by obsession, idealization, and emotional highs and lows. Amanda explains how limerence thrives on uncertainty, making it especially powerful for ADHD brains that crave novelty and fast dopamine. Tracy and Amanda explore how rejection sensitivity, perfectionism, and trauma can blur the line between desire and self worth, and why many women mistake intensity for connection. Amanda also shares how chasing emotionally unavailable partners became an organizing force in her life, and how that pattern kept her stuck in fantasy instead of intimacy. She also had to confront a deeper truth: real intimacy feels quieter than fantasy. Today, Amanda is married to a securely attached partner and is the author of When Longing Becomes Your Lover, a deeply personal exploration of limerence, ADHD, and what it takes to receive love instead of chasing it.Resources:Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amanda-mccracken-4716373 Website: https://www.amandajmccracken.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amanda.mccracken.39 Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performance often feels like pressure because your nervous system learned to brace, not rest. This episode unpacks why success triggers activation, why calm feels unfamiliar, and how to shift from survival patterns into grounded, high-capacity presence.Why does success feel heavier than it should — even when nothing is wrong?For many high-capacity humans, the answer lives in the nervous system. This episode offers a clear, practical walk-through of Polyvagal Theory, showing why performance so often feels like pressure, why the body braces even in moments of confidence, and why “I'm fine” rarely matches what's happening internally.Julie Holly breaks down the three primary states (ventral vagal, sympathetic, dorsal vagal) in simple, real-life language, helping you understand:why your baseline feels elevated even on your best dayswhy calm feels unfamiliar for high achieverswhy your nervous system treats success like a situation to managethe link between chronic activation and identity driftthe internal cues (tight jaw, lifted shoulders, shallow breath) that reveal your statehow interoception helps you identify bracing before it becomes burnoutwhy your nervous system's loyalty to old stories makes pressure feel safer than presenceYou'll hear how these states explain the internal “edge” so many high performers live with — a form of identity dissonance and success fatigue that rarely gets named.Julie also offers a compassionate reframe:Your system isn't malfunctioning.It's remembering.It learned to keep you steady in earlier seasons of your life, and it's been loyal to that pattern ever since.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) DistinctionThis episode makes it clear why mindset work or productivity hacks fall short.ILR works at the root level — where nervous system patterns, identity, and belonging intersect. It's not another strategy to “push through.” It's the recalibration that makes rest possible, presence accessible, and success feel like something you can actually enjoy.You'll learn:• what sympathetic activation feels like for high achievers• how dorsal vagal shutdown disguises itself as “I'm just tired”• why your nervous system confuses activation with safety• how identity performance keeps you bracing even in good moments• what it looks like to move into ventral presence without losing your edge• why capacity begins where bracing eIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Listen now and let this be the year you choose joy, presence, and traditions that truly fit the life you're made for.Step into The Life You're Made For, I'm cheering you on!heatherpenny.com@heatherpennyphdMusic & Production by Jason Squires

Psychotherapist and author Leah Marone joins Mark for a grounded conversation about why so many of us fall into the trap of overfunctioning for others. Leah, whose new book Serial Fixer explores this exact pattern, explains how emotional mirroring and urgency cycles show up in families, friendships, and clinical environments. She walks through the patterns she sees when people try to rescue or fix someone who is struggling and why that well intentioned approach often fuels more chaos rather than growth.Leah introduces practical indicators that boundaries are slipping, including resentment and repetitive conversations where nothing changes. She breaks down what serial fixing looks like in real time, how quickly we jump into problem solving to relieve our own discomfort, and why validation is the missing skill that keeps ownership where it belongs.She also explains her framework of support not solve, a mindset that helps clinicians, caregivers, and families shift away from codependency and toward healthier relational dynamics. Through relatable examples, Leah teaches how to use I statements, strengthen self trust, and approach hard conversations with clarity rather than guilt.This episode gives listeners concrete tools to stop taking responsibility for what is not theirs, communicate boundaries with confidence, and build more sustainable, compassionate relationships in their personal lives and in healthcare.Leah C Marone, LCSW Website : https://www.serial-fixer.com/TedTalk : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVBjI4tNv3sEpisode Takeaways Self Care Is Not a Spa Day- Real self care is a series of small resets throughout the day that regulate your nervous system.Fixing Others Creates More Chaos- Trying to solve someone's problems for them often fuels dependency and resentment.Resentment Signals a Boundary Problem- When irritation grows, it usually means you have taken on work that is not yours.Validation Beats Problem Solving- People calm down when they feel understood, not when they receive rapid fire solutions.I Statements Keep Conversations Safe- Replacing “you always” with “I feel” prevents defensiveness and keeps dialogue open.Urgency Is Often Self Imposed- Feeling responsible for everyone's comfort pushes you into overfunctioning and emotional burnout.Self Trust Requires Reps- Boundaries get easier through practice, not perfection, and discomfort is part of the growth curve.Micro Transitions Change Your Day- Short pauses between tasks help reset your focus and reduce the compounding stress that builds across a busy day.Episode Timestamps03:58 – Meeting the Inner Critic: Why We Judge Ourselves So Harshly05:16 – Realizing People Are Not Thinking About You as Much as You Think24:18 – Why Fixing Others Fails and How to Shift the Pattern25:50 – Boundaries Require Reps: Getting Comfortable With Discomfort28:28 – The Danger of “You” Statements and How They Trigger Defensiveness32:19 – The Hidden Crisis in Medicine: Shell Culture and Silent Burnout33:23 – What Self Care Really Means: Internal Conflict and Rigid Beliefs35:40 – Micro Transitions: How Small Daily Moments Can Reset Your Nervous SystemDISCLAMER >>>>>> The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

As we move closer to a new "one year" numerologically, we're wrapping up a nine-year cycle and stepping into an entirely new chapter. Think of it like a beautiful, untouched journal — blank pages waiting for your desires, clarity, and higher guidance to write what comes next. This week, I sat down with Isabeau Maxwell, an unexpected medium who went from total skeptic to becoming one of today's most respected mediums and teachers. We went into the real stuff like grief, fear, permission, and the subtle moment that opened her fully to the spirit world. A few spotlight moments I think you'll love: • What actually happened the night her grandmother's spirit showed up • How to stop outsourcing your energy (a big theme she says is coming in 2026–2027) • Why giving yourself permission — to feel, know, trust — is the doorway to intuition • The rising need for community and more feminine energy in this next phase of awakening Enjoy this conversation with Isabeau! Takeaways Isabeau transitioned from a skeptic to an intuitive after a profound experience with her grandmother's spirit. The importance of context in overcoming fear related to spiritual experiences. Crossing over work is heart-to-heart and fulfilling, helping souls transition to the light. The year 2026 will see a shift towards individuals generating their own energy rather than being influenced by external factors. The balance of masculine and feminine energies is crucial for growth and community. Spiritual awakening is a collective experience that invites personal change and growth. The pendulum of change signifies a shift from individualism to community focus. Compassion is essential in helping souls cross over and understanding their journey. The upcoming years will bring new ways of manifesting and connecting with others energetically. Authenticity and self-permission are key to personal happiness and spiritual growth. About Isabeau Maxwell Isabeau "Beau" Maxwell is an internationally recognized medium, spiritual teacher, and founder of The SAGE Method, an award-winning intuitive development program. Author of the bestselling Cracking Open, she has guided thousands in awakening their natural intuitive abilities. Known for her clarity, compassion, and accuracy, Isabeau bridges the spiritual and the practical, offering grounded, accessible guidance for anyone seeking to deepen their intuition and connection to the spirit world.

The line between “normal sore” and “season-ender” can be thinner than a springboard. We've been seeing a spike in shin pain as athletes ramp into meet season, so we dug into what actually separates routine aches from stress reactions and fractures—and how to act before things break. You'll hear the red flags we never ignore, why focal anterior tibia pain is different from posteromedial soreness, and the simple rule of threes that helps coaches and athletes make better calls on the floor.We share the four-stage path we use in the clinic—relative rest, strength, plyos, and sport return—and why early action shrinks each phase. One surprising insight: bone is most responsive to the first 20 to 60 impacts, especially in the morning, which means a short dose of depth drops and pogo hops can outpace long, junk-mile sessions. Add in heavy calf work, single-leg plyos, and targeted landing mechanics, and you get a plan that builds resilience without burning the fuse. We also talk realistic event modifications, smart rep caps for vault and floor, and checkpoints for progressing from rod to floor and from soft board to springboard.Underneath the protocols are the big levers: workload honesty, technical efficiency, and adequate fuel. Many athletes aren't weak; they're over-spiked, under-fueled, and landing hard. Tidy up shapes, let the equipment return energy, and loop in sports nutrition when progress stalls. If your goal is college gymnastics or simply a healthy, complete season, the bravest move is often stepping back for two weeks to save the next twelve. Listen to learn the exact tests, numbers, and conversations that help athletes stay on track and out of boots.

That voice inside your head—the one that tells you you're not good enough, that you need to be perfect, that you're a failure if you rest—she's keeping you stuck. And it's time to silence her. In this episode, we're diving deep into the seven inner critics that are holding you hostage in quasi-recovery. These voices? They're the reason you can't move forward. They're the reason you feel trapped in the exhausting cycle of trying and failing, restricting and controlling, never feeling like you're doing it right. But here's the truth: 80% of your thoughts are negative, and 95% of them are repetitive. No wonder you feel stuck. No wonder you lack motivation. No wonder you believe the lies that you'll always be this way. The good news? You can change your thoughts. And when you change your thoughts, you change your entire life. In this episode, you'll discover: What your inner critic is and how it developed in early childhood The 7 types of inner critics: Perfectionist, Inner Controller, Taskmaster, Destroyer, Underminer, Molder/People Pleaser, and Guilt Tripper Which inner critic is running the show in YOUR mind (and how to identify it) Why your inner critic isn't wrong—it's just a part of you that needs more love How to reframe your negative thoughts and shift your perspective A powerful reflection exercise to help you silence your mean girl once and for all If you're tired of feeling controlled by that voice in your head, if you're ready to stop believing the lies, and if you're done staying stuck in quasi-recovery—this episode is for you. It's time to be the boss of you. Not your eating disorder. Not your inner critic. You. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

In today's episode, I'm talking with my client Chris Sandel, an eating disorder nutritionist who runs a high-ticket hybrid program helping clients fully recover from longstanding eating disorders. Chris has been in business since 2009, but when he came to me, he wanted a more dependable, sustainable way to grow without relying on trends, burnout-level content, or the hope of going viral. Together, we rebuilt and elevated his premium hybrid offer, clarified his messaging with a clean, repeatable framework, and implemented a simple but powerful marketing system that now allows him to consistently enroll aligned, high-paying clients. A huge part of that has been helping Chris develop a content approach that actually fits his personality and values, including returning to Instagram after years away and learning how to make the platform work for him, not the other way around. And because of this work, Chris doubled his revenue and had his highest income year yet... in a year when many practitioners struggled! If you've ever wondered what sustainable growth looks like without sacrificing your integrity or your energy, this episode will give you clarity and inspiration. TOP 5 QUOTES "I truly believe that people can fully recover… it doesn't matter whether it's been a couple of years or multiple decades." "I like the messiness of people's lives and how that interplays with nutrition." "I want to be able to find the thing that people want and message it in a way that entices them to come in." "There was just a trust... I will figure this out, and the only way I'm going to figure it out is by keeping at it." "I'm not one for dancing or doing trends, so I just focused on simple carousels where I can eloquently convey a single thought... and it works." TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:22] – Why Chris's fundamentals-first approach helped him grow sustainably in a difficult year for online practitioners. [4:03] – Chris shares how he became an eating disorder nutritionist and why he believes full recovery is possible. [12:13] – The turning point that led Chris to build a scalable high-ticket hybrid program, and why earlier group offers never stuck. [17:09] – How we structured his hybrid offer and created a messaging framework that allowed him to communicate its value with confidence. [28:01] – Chris's return to Instagram, why he refused trends, and how simple, thoughtful carousels now bring in major reach and new clients. [37:22] – How sending more frequent emails increased connection, engagement, and conversions. [46:41] – The transformation: clarity, consistency, and doubling his revenue without burnout or performative marketing.

Graphic designers are working harder than ever, yet many are stuck, underpaid, and increasingly ignored. It feels like AI, cheaper tools, and endless competition are the problem. But that story is convenient. And wrong. The real issue is that most designers are trying to win in an industry that has already moved on.The reality is, most designers are doing exactly what they were taught to do. Perfect the craft. Add more skills. Grind harder. And yet those same designers are watching others with average work land better clients, bigger opportunities, and more respect. The difference is not talent. It is how they think, position themselves, and show up.This week on The Angry Designer Podcast, we break down the five mindset shifts separating designers who are just surviving from designers who are actually winning. These are the exact shifts I am drilling into my own team and the same ones I have seen protect careers through every major industry change.In this episode you'll discover:- Why design execution is becoming cheaper while strategic designers are booming- How relying on AI is quietly making designers invisible and how integrating it - What matters more than your portfolioThis episode is not about fixing your work. It is about fixing how you think about your role as a designer. Because the future does not belong to the busiest designers or the most technically skilled ones. It belongs to the designers who understand where the industry is going and choose to shift before they get left behind.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

If you’re a high-achiever who has built your life on hard work, dedication and getting difficult tasks done, you probably can’t imagine what it would be like to allow your life to happen in a way that is organic and easy. Just let things happen however they happen??? It might even sound kind of “wrong”. You might think to yourself that everything good in your life has been built by the achiever in you who knows how to get great things accomplished. But what if all of that power and passion you bring to your work and your life could be directed toward a life of ease? What if “easy” doesn’t mean what you think it does? This is a tiny little nuance that will not only change the way you think about the word “easy” but will (hopefully) revolutionize the way you experience your life.

• To celebrate the old bird/broad role models who've appeared on The Shift with Sam Baker, I'll be rerunning some of these conversations throughout December and into January. First up Miriam Margolyes... ---- It's the final episode of the season and all my podcasting dreams have come true. Because my guest this week - by popular demand and a whole ton of begging - is the one, the only, the legend that is Miriam Margolyes. Miriam started her career in theatre and radio, voiced some of the best known ads of the late 20th century (hello Cadburys Caramel bunny), won a BAFTA for her role in Martin Scorsese's Age of Innocence and millions of tiny hearts as Professor Sprout in Harry Potter. At 82, she is busier than ever; A Vogue cover star, one of TV's best-loved documentary makers and the bestselling author of two memoirs, This Much Is True and Oh Miriam! Can you tell how excited I was?! I met Miriam in Glasgow ahead of her live show to talk about everything from having her womb out in her mid-30s (she only went to the dr for a sore nose!), wearing trainers to Buckingham palace (before that was a thing) and why she's really really bored of being labelled “just a lesbian”. We also discussed never wanting children, her 54 year love match and the power of living a life with no secrets. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com Learn more about your ad choices.

PREVIEW: Chile's Political Shift Toward Capitalism and Democracy: Colleague Ernesto Araujo discusses Chile's recent political shift, where voters rejected a far-left constitution in favor of capitalism and democracy, arguing that unlike in Brazil, Chile's institutions remained healthy enough to resist the "destabilization" of socialism because the left lacked sufficient time to destroy the country's social fabric. 1903 CHILE
