Sarah Harrelson, founder and editor-in-chief of CULTURED magazine, joins us to discuss what it means to engage the culture rather than simply cover it. From her early training as a competitive equestrian to her unexpected pivot from politics to publishing, Harrelson shares how discipline, curiosity, and an eye for the underdog have informed her editorial approach. We talk about the magazine's evolution—from its roots in print to its growing influence across art, fashion, and design—and why events were always central to the brand's DNA. She reflects on building access without elitism, maintaining integrity in a metrics-driven world, and what feels truly contemporary now. “People think I'm very social, but I'm actually most comfortable standing quietly in a room, observing. That's how I learned—watching how people move, how power shifts, how conversations unfold. I think that shaped my sense of how to tell stories.” - Sarah Harrelson  Episode Highlights: The Discipline of Beauty - Sarah's early life as a competitive equestrian instilled a love of visual precision, self-discipline, and independence—elements that continue to shape her editorial eye. From Politics to Publishing - With a college focus on the politics of poverty, Sarah originally envisioned a career in public service. That political awareness now informs her coverage of art, fashion, and the underdog stories that drive CULTURED. Shyness as Superpower - Once a shy child, Sarah reveals how observing from the sidelines helped her understand power dynamics, refine her instincts, and eventually find her editorial voice. Why She Built CULTURED Around Events - Events have been a core pillar of CULTURED since its inception—intimate, thoughtful gatherings that bring creative disciplines together and foster unexpected connections. The Anti-Algorithmic Editorial Approach - Sarah is unapologetic about choosing stories based on meaning rather than metrics, spotlighting talent before the industry catches on—even if it means fewer clicks. The Art of Cross-Pollination - Long before it became standard, Sarah was curating spaces where fashion designers, artists, architects, and tech figures could genuinely connect—not network, but engage. Rejecting Editorial Rigidity - In response to legacy media's narrow guidelines, Sarah launched CULTURED with a rebellious spirit—including two blank pages in the first issue to make a statement about creative freedom. The Power of Staying Grounded - With three kids and a close-knit personal circle, Sarah prioritizes time, presence, and humility. “I don't like cliques,” she says. “I'm interested in being inclusive.” Cultured VIP & Democratizing Access - Through the CULTURED VIP program, she's opening doors to readers who don't always have access—offering things like museum tours, studio visits, and meaningful cultural experiences. What's Contemporary Now? - For Sarah, contemporaneity isn't about what's trending—it's about authenticity, curiosity, and kindness. A genuine lens, she says, is the most powerful tool any cultural voice can have. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Shyness - The Quite Battle Ep 253IntroductionThe podcast is hosted by Merrill Hutchinson and Carl Andry, featuring discussions about overcoming shyness and social anxiety, particularly focusing on strategies to engage with people and "work a room." They emphasize that shyness often stems from self-centeredness and anxiety rather than humility, and provide insights on how to develop social skills.Understanding ShynessPersonal ExperiencesMerrill shares his struggle with painful shyness and anxiety, which he felt deeply affected his social interactions.Carl discusses his own experiences with shyness, highlighting that both men often have a silent internal struggle when it comes to social situations.The Mechanics of ShynessThe hosts identify shyness as not merely a personality trait but a skill that can be learned and improved upon.They explain that natural extroverts might find social interactions easier, while others need to develop techniques to manage their anxiety and communicate effectively.Strategies for Overcoming Shyness1. Desire to ChangeThe first step in overcoming shyness is the sincere desire to engage with others. Individuals must recognize the benefits of social interactions, including networking opportunities and personal connections.2. Learning to "Work a Room"Working a room is not about manipulation but about developing the skill to engage genuinely with others.The importance of learning and practicing skills such as making eye contact, shaking hands, and being present in conversations.3. The Importance of Small TalkSmall talk is vital in breaking the ice. Engaging in small talk allows individuals to gauge a person's interest and comfort level before diving into deeper discussions.4. Asking QuestionsThey encourage asking open-ended questions to invite others into a conversation. This technique reduces the pressure on the shy individual to share about themselves and allows others to express their thoughts.Carl emphasizes the art of questioning, stating that it can lead to meaningful exchanges and help shy individuals engage more comfortably.5. Active ListeningActive listening is crucial in social interactions. The hosts stress the importance of giving full attention to the person speaking, which helps to foster connections and validate others' feelings and stories.6. Practicing Public SpeakingEngaging in public speaking can significantly help shy individuals. By practicing in front of larger groups, individuals can build confidence in their speaking abilities and learn to manage their anxiety.7. Body Language and PresenceProper body language, such as standing tall, making eye contact, and offering a firm handshake, communicates confidence.The hosts note that these non-verbal cues can significantly affect how others perceive and respond to you.8. Embracing AuthenticityAuthenticity is essential. The hosts encourage individuals to be genuine in their interactions, sharing real thoughts and feelings rather than trying to conform to expectations.9. Using Humor and Self-DeprecationLearning to laugh at oneself and embracing mistakes can diffuse tension and foster a more relaxed atmosphere. The hosts share personal anecdotes about moments of awkwardness that ended up being humorous.rocksolidfamilies.org Support the show#Rocksolidfamilies,#familytherapy,#marriagecounseling,#parenting,#faithbasedcounseling,#counseling,#Strongdads,#coaching,#lifecoach,#lifecoaching,#marriagecoaching,#marriageandfamily,#control,#security,#respect,#affection,#love,#purpose,#faith,#mastersofdisaster,#storms,#disasterrelief,#tornados,#hurricanes,#floods

Who hasn't had to wait at a doctor's office well past the appointment time. It sucks. What is a reasonable amount of time to have to wait? Should you complain to someone? This episode starts with some interesting research that explains what you should do so your doctor knows your time is valuable and you shouldn't have to wait so long. https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/practices/ppatients-switched-doctors-long-wait-times-vitals Peer pressure is a powerful force – more powerful than people realize. You are constantly influencing people around you to be more like you, and they are influencing you to be more like them - without even realizing it. When you understand the power of peer pressure it can become a powerful tool. Joining me to discuss all this is Robert Frank, a professor of Management and Economics at Cornell University's Johnson Graduate School of Management and author of the book Under the Influence: Putting Peer Pressure to Work (https://amzn.to/3L4HPno). Almost everyone has felt shy. In fact, only 2% of people claim they never feel shy. The rest of us have all been in situations where we have felt shy to some extent. What is shyness? Why are some people more prone to it than others? Can you overcome shyness in situations that really matter? Here with some advice is Lynne Henderson who has worked with shy people to help them overcome that feeling that prevents people from fully engaging in life.By the way, it being shy isn't always a problem to be fixed. Sometimes it can be quite charming! Lynne is the founder of the Social Fitness Center and the founder and co-director of the Shyness Institute. She is also author of The Shyness Workbook (https://amzn.to/3sA1Njp). Sometimes you just “click” with someone. It can happen in romance, friendship and in business. People just click. What is happening when that happens? Who are you most likely to click with? Listen as we explore the magic of clicking – and hear some ways that will help you become better at clicking.

Becoming sober, which Murph describes as the best decision of his life, was not easy. Murph goes into detail about what the withdrawal process was like and how he began to find joy in activities again.

My name is Ashton. Thanks for stopping by. I am a writer and author, entrepreneur and consultant in the wellness space, yoga and meditation guide. I am obsessed with animals (dogs and donkeys especially) and can't wait to one day own a farm where all my rescues can live happily ever after. Being badly bullied in school led to self-worthiness issues, and I attached accomplishment with worth. The more I did, the more worthy I would become. (Spoiler alert: we don't ‘achieve' worthiness – we simply are – it's innate). So, I earned my MFA in Creative NonFiction Writing and have since published three books. Dedicated to sharing mind-body-life wellness, I created YouAligned.com and app YouAligned Classes. Yet as I was building my career of helping others, I was inwardly self-sabotaging. I started playing small in life, afraid of failure and rejection. This experience both cost and taught me a lot. And I wouldn't be where I am today, able to teach and speak on what I do, if it wasn't for all that I've gone through. I am candid with my success, my mistakes, and all that I have learned along the way. Most importantly, I have distilled all of these experiences, lessons and insights, into my current work as an author, consultant, teacher and leader.

E383 – "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Michael Thompson, a career coach, lecturer at EAE Business School in Barcelona, Spain, and strategic communication advisor to top business leaders worldwide. Growing up, his stutter and social anxiety kept him from pursuing his goals. By turning his supposed weaknesses into his greatest strengths, he developed a system of principles to help people express themselves more confidently and build meaningful relationships without sacrificing their nature. His work has appeared in numerous publications, including Fast Company, Insider, Forbes, INC, MSN, and Apple News. We discuss his new book, Shy by Design: 12 Timeless Principles to Quietly Stand Out.

Michael shared his experiences with stuttering and his past struggles with anxiety, depression, and substance use, highlighting how these challenges have helped him connect with others. Dr. emphasized acknowledging and embracing vulnerabilities as a source of strength and confidence. They also touched on treating curiosity as a primary responsibility, encouraging self-reflection, and questioning past experiences. Michael and Dr. discussed the importance of curiosity about oneself and others and how this can lead to better relationships and personal growth. Michael shared his experience overcoming his stuttering by focusing on listening rather than speaking, making him more curious about others. Dr. agreed, emphasizing that curiosity is essential for creating meaningful relationships. They also touched on being bold in the moments that matter, with Michael sharing his practice of keeping a record of his accomplishments to encourage further boldness. They talked about strategies for boosting confidence and overcoming self-doubt. Michael shared his experiences of facing challenges and overcoming them, emphasizing the importance of self-validation and maintaining a positive mindset. He also suggested keeping a 'brag sheet' of personal achievements to remind oneself of past successes. Dr. agreed with these strategies, adding that reflecting on past achievements can help tap into one's inner power and resilience. They both emphasized the importance of focusing on personal strengths and accomplishments rather than seeking external validation. Michael and Dr. discussed strategies for overcoming anxiety and fear in personal and professional settings. Michael introduced the "trip away framework," which involves acknowledging feelings, accepting reality, and asking oneself what is needed to move forward. He emphasized the importance of taking the next step, even if uncomfortable, to grow and learn. Dr. agreed with Michael's approach, noting that people often avoid pushing through due to fear and anxiety. They both recommended that facing fears and doing what's uncomfortable can lead to personal growth and learning, even if mistakes are made. Michael shared how he had to learn to listen to his internal signals and not let others dictate his path. He also talked about changing his mindset to see his stuttering as a positive aspect. Dr. emphasized that Michael's shyness and stuttering were still present but had been managed through creating comfortable structures. Michael also shared his approach to helping others, emphasizing the importance of asking for help and designing environments for personal growth. Lastly, Dr. asked Michael about how he supports his introverted and shy children, to which Michael responded by sharing his experiences and empathizing with their struggles. Michael shared his experiences with his two children, aged 10 and 6, who have speech difficulties. He mentioned that the 10-year-old is highly intelligent but sometimes lazy with his speech, while the 6-year-old is very quiet and has difficulty speaking. Michael and his wife are cautious about the potential long-term effects of these habits and are trying to encourage their children to speak more. He also shared his personal journey of self-discovery and how writing helped him gain confidence and clarity about his values.

SummaryAs a super quiet, observing kid, Carolyn often had her head in a book or went adventuring on her own. As an adult this lead to naturally hermitty behaviour before she actively decided to show others that shy characters can do bold & hard things too - especially if they take tea wherever they go. Now, woven into a well connected community she is more or less living her daydream of tea caravans, herbal gardens, her very own herbal medicine book & a throng of good folks around her.She reveals that growing herbs was her gateway to herbalism & that we can all know their potency by incorporating them into every day life & not just turning to them when we're sick. But to do this we must get to know them. The best way to become intimate is to grow them, dry them, taste them, smell them, feel how they moves through your body.Join us on a magical herbal love-affair!Links You'll LoveThe Medicine Garden - Carolyn ParkerThe Cottage HerbalistLoved this ep?

Episode Title:Breaking Out of Your Shell: Growing Your Beauty Business as a Shy EntrepreneurHost:Connie HolmPodcast:Outside the Treatment Room "Welcome to today's episode of Outside the Treatment Room, where we talk about the business side of the beauty industry. I'm your host, Connie Holm. If you're a shy entrepreneur and feel like your personality might be holding you back from growing your beauty business, this episode is for you!""Today, we're going to discuss how being shy doesn't have to stop you from building a thriving business. I'll be sharing strategies to help you push through your comfort zone, boost your confidence, and connect with clients in a way that feels genuine to you. I'm more of an extrovert, but I've worked with many introverted business owners, and I want to understand how shyness affects their journey."Segment 1: Embracing Your Shyness as a Strength "Let's start by addressing the idea that being shy is a weakness. It's not. Shy people often have strong listening skills, empathy, and the ability to build deep connections. These qualities can make you a fantastic beauty professional.""Clients value trust, and you don't have to be the most outgoing person to build that. Sincerity, attentiveness, and understanding are enough to earn your clients' trust.""Rather than trying to change your personality, lean into your natural qualities and offer a personalized, caring approach."Segment 2: Overcoming Shyness in Business Situations "Now, while it's important to embrace who you are, there will be situations where stepping out of your comfort zone is necessary for growth. Here are some practical strategies to help you overcome shyness."Practice Makes Progress"Start small by practicing conversations with friends or family. Pick a service and product you're confident talking about, and rehearse your pitch. As you gain experience, your confidence will grow.""Even though I'm more extroverted, I still get nervous at networking events. But stepping out of your comfort zone gets easier with time."Preparation is Key"Preparation can ease your nerves. For consultations or appointments, have a script or key points ready. Knowing what you want to say can help you feel more in control.""Before attending networking events, I prepared a short intro about myself and my business. Though it wasn't easy, it made things much more manageable."Set Goals to Push Boundaries"Set small goals like introducing yourself at a networking event or asking for client reviews. These small victories build confidence."Develop a Signature Service"Having a signature service can help you stand out. Whether it's laser treatments or permanent jewelry, let your work speak for itself. Your expertise will naturally attract clients."Segment 3: Marketing for the Shy Entrepreneur "Marketing can be challenging for shy entrepreneurs, especially when it involves putting yourself out there. But there are ways to market your business that don't require being the face of it."Focus on Visual Marketing"Let your results shine! Post before-and-after photos, share testimonials, or create videos of your treatments. You don't have to be in front of the camera—let your work speak for you."Leverage Online Communities"Join online groups like Facebook communities for beauty professionals. You can engage and offer advice without the pressure of public appearances."Email Marketing & Direct Communication"Email marketing allows you to connect with clients without public interactions. Send updates, offers, and personalized messages directly to their inbox."Quote of the Day "Today's quote is from Amy Schumer: 'So if you're an introvert like me, especially a female introvert, or a person who is expected to give away your energy to everyone else on the reg, I want to encourage you to find time to be alone. Don't be afraid to excuse yourself. Recharge for as long as you need. Lean up against a tree and take a break from the other bears. I'll be there too, but I promise not to bother you.'"Closing Thoughts "To wrap things up, your personality doesn't define your success. Shyness isn't a barrier to running a successful beauty business. With the right strategies, you can build a brand that clients love and trust.""Thank you for tuning into Outside the Treatment Room.

Did you know that shyness is a sin? Well technically the term is “pusillanimity” — a smallness of soul. Theologians of the past describe this vice as a failure to trust God. We fear the opinions of others so we shrink back from taking risks for God, serving others, and standing up for our convictions. This particular vice often masquerades as humility, but in reality demonstrates self-focus that dishonors God and our own humanity.  Show Notes Support us on Patreon Website: thatllpreach.io IG: thatllpreachpodcast YouTube Channel

EPISODE 021

On this amazing episode we  talk about finding your identity and caring your path in the sync space. We also talk about using emotion to push a message and what being the male Lizzo means. We also get into what labels are looking for and how to make your tracks even more suitable for sync.   Make sure to listen to the end because this podcast is AMAZING   James's Bio: James Gardin is a musician who's been around the block...a few times. With a 20-year career under his belt, this Lansing, Michigan native has seen it all - from playing to empty bars to performing with big-name artists like Bryce Vine, Jack Harlow, KING, MURS, Macklemore, and Quinn XCII. Gardin's music has been featured on TV shows and films like ESPN's " First Take , CW's "All American," ,"Queen Sugar," Bloom, and "Block Party," proving that he's not just a one-hit wonder. And if that's not impressive enough, he's also had his tunes played on Hot97 - you know, the radio station that's heard by more people than a screaming toddler in a quiet restaurant. But what really sets James Gardin apart is his niche. He creates empowering, encouraging music for TV, film, and fans alike, all while using faith as a sonic/lyrical foundation. If you're looking for a musician who's got talent, heart, and a sense of humor (because let's face it, he's got to have one to have lasted this long in the industry), then look no further than James Gardin.   Get in touch with James https://www.supercleanjames.com

We've talked a lot about healthy communication in relationships, but when it comes to the topic of sex, partners often shy away from talking about it directly.

As an award-winning researcher and tenured professor, she has so many insights to share, and the evidence to back it up! How can you build sexual esteem? What are ways that personal & environmental factors can affect your libido? Should I try sexual meditation or tantra sex?
