Max Browne is back on Real Pod for a much-needed men's mental health convo. Vic and her husband, Max, unpack why so many men feel pressure to be stoic, the generational messages they've absorbed (like “man up”), and why anger is often the only emotion society allows them to show. Max shares his experiences with anxiety, therapy, and performance pressure from his football career, and how learning to express his emotions has made him a better partner, friend, and man. They also dive into how couples can create emotional safety, shift unhealthy gender roles, and hold space for each other's needs. If you've ever felt frustrated by a partner who won't open up or you're a guy trying to navigate your own mental health, this episode will leave you seen, validated, and better equipped. Send it to the men in your life so that you can keep fostering these open conversations and keep growing in your mental health journeys together!Follow Max on Instagram @maxbrowne & TikTok @brownemaxMore episodes with Max:Max Got a New Job!!

Did you know that 80% of sales happen between the 5th and 12th contact? If you're not closing the deal, it's not your product, it's your follow-up. I used to think I was being “annoying” when I followed up. I thought if someone didn't say yes the first time, it meant they weren't interested. WRONG. Most people need to see an offer multiple times before they ever take action, and if you stop showing up, they will too. In this episode, I break down the industry stats, why most people quit way too soon, and the 3-part strategy that will change the way you sell forever. Get ready to start closing more deals!

Hi listeners! Sarina here, with a topic that has been on my mind for years. When I began my career, everyone told me I had to develop a “thick skin” to do this job. But it turns out that a “thick skin” is one of the only things you can't buy on Amazon. Today I invite my friend Lauren Blakely onto the podcast for a frank discussion of all that we've learned about resilience, one-star ratings and feedback these past ten years or so. Together, we offer the beginnings of a handy framework for how to think about feedback. We offer some actionable advice for what to do, where to turn and how to process unsolicited criticism. You do not have to attend every conversation you're invited to. - A wise stranger on the interwebs.Since avoiding negative feedback just isn't feasible, we discuss the following coping mechanisms. * Checking in with a friend and having friends in the business* How to make sure that good feedback is as available and memorable as the bad* Recognizing that clinging to negatives is how the brain works. That reflex has an important evolutionary role, but we don't have to subjugate ourselves to it.* Lifting up other people as soulcraftWhere to find Lauren Blakely: Ms. Blakely is the author of multiple bestsellers. For a master class in how to package genre fiction, you'll definitely want a peek at her backlist.Find more from Lauren at Instagram! What we are reading:Lauren is loving the forthcoming Shoot Your Shot by Lexi LaFleur. It's a hockey romance.Sarina is loving The Notebook: A History of Thinking on Paper by Roland Allen, which tickles her geeky, paper-loving heart. This is a public episode.

If you've ever hesitated to put yourself out there because what if they say no?, this episode of the Date Brazen Podcast is for you. We're flipping the script on outdated dating rules that keep you passive and stuck. Instead of waiting, I'm teaching you how to co-create the dating life you want, how to shoot your shot like a boss, and actually enjoy the process (yes, really). Here's what you'll learn:
What's up Brose? We are back with Grant Ellis and The Bachelor. In this episode the ladies suit up and take the court. Its team yellow vs team purple with and MVP jacket on the line. Zoe causes the first rift in the group when she steals Grant away during a group date. That's just gameplay as far as we're concerned. Chloie wins the MVP and some one on one time. Alli Jo gets activated... Alexe gets her 1 on 1 date with Grant and I think we were all jealous of the mall date. They seem to have a genuine connection. Group date #2 is performance based where everyone makes a song. Carolina wins and solidifies her victory with a pretty intimate smooch on the couch in front of an audience and it did not sit well with the other ladies on the date. The drama is starting to heat up amongst the contestants as Grant tries to console some of them after group date #2. The rose ceremony eliminates one of Shooter's team members as we are really starting to get into the good stuff. This show rocks. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
