Psychologist and true crime presenter Julia Shaw joins Mongabay's podcast to discuss her latest read, examining some of the highest-profile environmental crimes and why they occur, in Green Crime: Inside the Minds of the People Destroying the Planet and How to Stop Them. She details the commonalities behind six major cases, and what can be learned from them, as described by six motivating factors: ease, impunity, greed, rationalization, conformity, and desperation. "As a psychologist, I was like, ‘What if we create a psychological profile of the various people involved with these various big crimes?' And so that's how I came to the Six Pillars because I was using a model from criminology, which is called Situational Crime Prevention Theory, and of looking at the factors that contribute to a crime being committed," she says.

When it comes to dating, every man believes confidence is the key. But real self-confidence is not about pretending to be fearless, saying the right line, or acting like you do not care. It is about building inner strength that cannot be taken away by rejection, silence, or anyone's opinion of you. In this episode, we are breaking down the six pillars of self-confidence — the foundations that separate men who chase validation from those who create attraction effortlessly. Because if you do not build these pillars inside yourself first, every interaction you have with a woman will rest on shaky ground.

Living longer is one thing. Living well is another. In Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Bobby Dubois, we unpack the final three pillars of his blueprint for longevity: mind-body harmony, heat & cold exposure, and social relationships. Dr. Bobby explains why practices like meditation, breathwork, and even walking in nature can calm the brain and lower anxiety. We also explore the science-backed benefits of sauna and cold plunging—and what's hype versus what's real. Finally, we uncover why social connection is the single strongest predictor of living a long, healthy, and fulfilling life. If you want practical, evidence-based ways to boost your health, not just your longevity, this episode shows you how to put it all together. In this podcast interview, you'll learn: How meditation and breathwork improve brain and heart health. Why saunas reduce risk of heart attack and stroke. The science behind cold plunges and their impact on mood and happiness. Why social connection is the strongest predictor of longevity, even more than exercise. How to be your own “quarterback” for health and wellness instead of hiring multiple coaches and gurus. Show Notes: HowardBailey.com/522

Today, I'm speaking with Dr. Bobby Dubois. Dr. Bobby is a Harvard-educated physician, Board-Certified in Internal Medicine with over 25 years of experience. He's an author, entrepreneur, wellness doctor, and Ironman Triathlete. Most recently, he led a health policy research organization in Washington, D.C. (National Pharmaceutical Council) as its Chief Science Officer and Executive Vice President. Prior to that, he served as the Chief Medical Officer of Cerner Life Sciences and co-founded Proto Care Sciences. He's the host of the Live Long and Well podcast and has made it his mission to help others cut through the noise and live longer with more energy as they age. The simple fact is, most retirees and pre-retirees want more time, energy, and independence to enjoy the life they've worked so hard to build. However, the reality is that longevity without good health won't achieve the lifestyle that most retirees envisioned during their working years. In part 1 of this 2-part conversation, we delve into the life-extending benefits of aerobic exercise, the scientific advantages of consistent sleep, and the surprising role of relationships in promoting increased longevity. Dr. Bobby outlines his six pillars of health and explains how to apply them in retirement. And here's the good news: it's never too late to start. In its simplest form, his advice is strikingly similar to what you'd hear from a financial advisor: It's much better to start saving and exercising young, but it's never too late to start. If you want to live not only longer, but better, this episode provides a clear path and roadmap to get there. GET A FREE COPY OF DR.

Wendy Grijalva: How Victim Shaming Changed Everything | The Hopeaholics PodcastWendy Grijalva delivers a raw and inspiring exploration of her journey through addiction, trauma, and recovery. Wendy, celebrated for her impactful presence at a "Recover Out Loud" event, shares her story with vulnerability, detailing a childhood marked by feeling like the "black sheep" in a stable middle-class family, early physical development at age 9 that led to harassment, and a traumatic incident at 11 where she witnessed a fatal accident, sparking deep guilt. Her adolescence spiraled into rebellion, with her first heavy drinking and pregnancy in ninth grade, followed by a loss of her musical talents due to substance use. Wendy candidly discusses her struggles with perfectionism, fear of failure, and self-harm, which fueled her addiction, and the profound loss of her partner George to suicide, which left her grappling with blame and unresolved amends. In recovery, she embraces a spiritual practice centered on six pillars—breathing, gratitude, intentions, meditation, mindful movement, and eating—while emphasizing "progress not perfection" and the power of affirmations to rewire her mindset. Now transitioning to teaching meditation in recovery centers, Wendy sees her calling in helping others find peace through self-care, turning her pain into purpose. The episode weaves humor, raw emotion, and spiritual insights, highlighting the importance of humility, trust in a higher power, and service in overcoming addiction, making it a powerful testament to resilience and healing.#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

Are great leaders born or made? Business strategist and author Jim Carlough reveals the Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, showing how anyone can develop the mindset and skills to lead successfully. Discover key principles, personal insights, and practical strategies to transform your leadership journey!

Australia’s strata sector is under pressure — and it's no longer a niche issue. Following high-profile investigations by Four Corners and 7.30 Report, strata governance failures, building defects, and financial blowouts are now front and centre. With more Australians living in apartments and townhouses than ever before, what happens next in this space will impact millions. In this episode, Kate McHugh, co-founder of the Strata Futures Stakeholder Engagement and Roundtable, joins us to unpack what’s driving the crisis—and what needs to change. Drawing from her work on the Strata Futures Report, Kate outlines the six key reform pillars that emerged from cross-sector collaboration, covering everything from governance and professional standards to owner advocacy and sustainability. We explore how opaque commissions, underfunded capital works, power imbalances, and a fragmented regulatory system are eroding trust in strata—and why many apartment owners are left feeling blindsided by defects and skyrocketing levies. Kate also shares what it would take for the sector to turn itself around—before government intervention does it for them. Whether you're a strata owner, buyer, investor, or professional, this episode offers critical insight into the future of high-density living in Australia. Episode Highlights 00:00 – Welcome 02:09 – The Strata Sector's Challenges 04:14 – Governance and Regulation Issues 05:08 – The Round Table Initiative 11:54 – Sustainability in Strata 17:13 – The Six Pillars of Reform 26:07 – Understanding Strata Obligations 27:19 – The Importance of Maintenance and Governance Data 28:30 – Investing in the Strata Sector 29:08 – Personal Mission to Improve Property Decisions 30:18 – Challenges in Strata Education and Awareness 31:29 – Public Awareness and Training Initiatives 33:32 – Strata Management and Building Maintenance 37:00 – The Future of Strata Development 40:30 – Sector Collaboration and Task Force 44:14 – Final Thoughts and Call to Action Mentions Strata Futures - https://www.katemchugh.net/strata-futures About the Guest Kate McHugh is the co-founder of the Strata Futures Stakeholder Engagement and Roundtable and co-author of the Strata Futures Report. With a background in governance, policy, sustainability, and stakeholder engagement, Kate works at the intersection of lived experience and systemic reform in Australia’s strata sector. Partnering with former NSW Strata Commissioner John Minns and a wide network of industry and consumer leaders, Kate helped convene a cross-sector discussion to explore what’s broken—and what could be rebuilt. The outcome: a collaborative report outlining six key reform areas designed to make strata more equitable, transparent, and functional. Her work is helping push the conversation forward at a time when strata’s role in housing affordability, sustainability, and urban planning has never been more critical.

In today's Part 2 episode, Dr. Mark returns with a powerful message on the critical importance of practice infrastructure over sheer production. From leadership and culture assessments to systemization, He shares the real metrics that matter in dental practice ownership. He emphasizes how many practices in the U.S. operate at 2% or even negative profitability—and what that means for your financial legacy.  Dr. Mark introduces foundational frameworks like the Six Pillars of Practice Optimization and the Four Futures—mind, meaning, muscle, and money—to help dentists achieve holistic success, not just financial wins. Drawing from his own experience of building six practices and achieving millionaire status only to find himself unfulfilled, Dr. Mark reminds us that success without balance is an illusion. He also touches on why dentistry is a hot target for private equity, the workforce crisis post-COVID, and how to think like a sophisticated business owner.

What are you celebrating today?Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?Questions/Topics/PromptsYou've written a book based on your experiences and the leadership lessons you've learned from others. In The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, you identify empathy and compassion as two of the six. I am really intrigued by this as my immediate reaction was, “aren't these the same thing?” Help me understand…You shared with me in our email exchange you had a story involving a middle school principal that related to empathy and compassion. Can you share it?Your background is in the private sector and I noticed you were a VP of Client Development for Health Management Systems. I've done some work with corporate leaders and have been amazed at how similar being a VP is to being a school administrator. Corporate has their demands and the people you serve have a different set of demands, and you are right there in the middle trying to muddle your way through. Can you talk about this tension and then share some wisdom about how school leaders can navigate this?Sponsor Spot 3:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast…Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction.

Leadership sounds simple in theory, but in reality, it's a constant balancing act between vision, execution, and human dynamics. Teams lose motivation when they don't feel heard, and growth stalls when leaders rely on surface-level strategies that don't address deeper issues. The real challenge isn't just making decisions—it's creating an environment where people feel invested and capable of pushing forward. Without a clear, effective approach, even the best intentions can fall flat. Jim Carlough is a business strategist, speaker, and author with 25+ years of experience in healthcare leadership and growth. He has led companies through major transitions, tripled client bases, and executed corporate acquisitions. His book, The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, offers a practical guide for leaders at all levels. Today, he breaks down his six leadership pillars, focusing on empathy, integrity, and strategic communication. He shares insights on building high-performing teams and navigating workplace challenges while fostering a supportive, people-first culture. Stay tuned!

Drawing upon over thirty years of professional experience, Mr. Carlough asserts that effective leaders are cultivated through deliberate practice and mentorship.

In this deep-dive episode of The Red Light Report, Dr. Mike Belkowski takes you beyond the basics to explore why mitochondrial function is the true driver of health—and disease. After contrasting centralized vs. decentralized health paradigms, he reveals the root causes and systemic effects of mitochondrial dysfunction, using vivid analogies like “rocks in a river” to explain electron leakage and oxidative stress. From there, Mike unpacks the Six Pillars of Mitochondrial Health: 1. Energy Production – ATP synthesis & structured “EZ” water batteries 2. Biogenesis – Growing new mitochondria via PGC-1α, NRF1/2, TFAM 3. Mitophagy – Recycling damaged mitochondria through PINK1/Parkin 4. Fusion/Fission – Dynamic balancing of mitochondrial networks 5. Oxidative Stress Protection – Internal and supplemental antioxidants 6. Light Interaction – How red/NIR light supercharges bioenergetics   Along the way, learn why methylene blue and red light therapy are synergistic brain- and mitochondria-boosters, why proper breathing and oxygen availability are non-negotiable, and how lifestyle tactics—from grounding to sun exposure—tie back to cellular power. Mike closes with a sneak peek at an upcoming all-in-one mitochondrial optimization product designed to tackle all six pillars at once.
