Conflict is inevitable in every relationship but no one teaches us how to do it in a way that actually creates closeness instead of damage. In this episode, I'm breaking down the one relationship skill that determines whether love grows stronger or slowly erodes over time: how you handle conflict. We're reframing conflict from something to fear into an opportunity for deeper intimacy, secure attachment, and real emotional safety. This is the framework I wish I had years ago and the one I've seen completely transform relationships when people finally learn how to do it differently.Inside the episode:Why secure relationships aren't defined by the absence of conflict, but by the presence of repair and how fast you repair matters more than compatibilityHow anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles show up in conflict (and why they keep repeating the same painful patterns)The secure conflict framework that helps you stay regulated, communicate clearly, and protect the relationship instead of threatening itIf you've ever felt panicked, shut down, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted after conflict or you've avoided it altogether, this episode will change the way you see arguments forever. Conflict done well isn't a problem. It's intimacy in disguise.If you're ready to go deeper and start your journey toward secure love, you can explore the Empowered. Secure. Loved. offers here:

In this week's basketball coaching conversation, Coordinator of Integrated Performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers Clayton Thompson joins the Basketball Podcast to share insights on integrating science, skill, and human connectionClayton Thompson serves as the Coordinator of Integrated Performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he sits at the cutting edge of professional sports science and player development. With a background as an R&D Engineer and a Master's in Business Administration, Thompson is a vocal advocate for dismantling the traditional silos between "strength and conditioning" and "on-field skill." His philosophy is built on the belief that human movement should be treated as a unified system, rejecting the narrow label of "Strength Coach" in favor of a model that integrates biomechanical data, force-plate analytics, and technical skill acquisition.Before joining the Dodgers, Thompson refined his data-driven approach at Driveline Baseball, the industry leader in data-informed performance training. His career also includes pivotal roles at TCU (Texas Christian University) and Sanford Health, where he bridged the gap between collegiate athletics and clinical sports science. By applying engineering principles to the kinetic chain, Thompson has become an expert in optimizing rotational power and deceleration—concepts that are as vital for a pitcher's delivery as they are for a basketball player's jump shot or step-back.

The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast - Episode 387: He Shot my Buck Out From Under Me : Aaron Olsen Next Step Outdoors In this episode of the Bowhunter Chronicles podcast, Adam sits down to talk with Aaron Olsen of Next Step Outdoors to break down the real-world challenges of public land hunting, covering strategy, mindset, and decision-making from start to finish of a hard-fought hunt. The discussion explores balancing family life and hunting season, managing expectations, and adapting when conditions and pressure don't go as planned. A pivotal moment in the hunt sparks the core debate of the episode: while glassing a buck, another hunter spotted the same deer, slipped in, and ultimately shot it out from in front of them. What followed became a race to the buck—and a larger conversation about ethics, unwritten rules, and fair play on public land. Was the other hunter in the wrong, or was it simply part of hunting ground that belongs to everyone? Beyond that moment, the episode dives into missed opportunities, mid-hunt adjustments, weather challenges, deer movement, and spot-and-stalk versus ground hunting tactics. Mental toughness and patience are tested as pressure increases from other hunters, leading to honest reflections on luck vs skill, scouting, preparation, and lessons learned for future hunts. Topics Covered: Public land hunting strategy Hunting ethics and shared ground Deer movement and scouting Spot-and-stalk vs ground hunting Decision-making under pressure

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John challenges the idea that confidence is a feeling or belief you either have or do not have. He explores the importance of rebuilding the relationship with one's voice, focusing on functional behaviors that define confidence, and the role of attention control in singing. Confidence grows when you focus on what you do, not how you feel.   Episode highlights: The relationship with the voice often fails before the voice itself. Confident singers separate information from identity. Recognizing wins is essential for building confidence.   To learn more about John Henny, his best-selling books, on-line courses, Voiceschool.com featuring his Teaching Team of Experts, Speaker Training and the Contemporary Voice Teacher Academy, visit: JohnHenny.com

Nearly four years ago, I recorded an episode about why hairdressers should be recommending professional retail. And yet, here we are, still having the same conversation. The fundamentals haven't changed, but the world we're operating in absolutely has. Inflation, online shopping, influencers, and changing client behaviour… all of it has added new layers to old objections.In this episode, I break down why so many stylists still avoid recommending retail and, more importantly, what's really sitting underneath those objections. I walk through the most common excuses I hear, grouped into skill issues, mindset issues, fear issues, and systems issues and explain why teaching product knowledge or scripts alone will never fix the problem.This isn't about being pushy or “selling.” It's about professionalism, service, responsibility, and ultimately the sustainability of your business. If you're a salon owner or a stylist who wants stronger client relationships, better results, and a more profitable salon, this is a conversation you can't keep avoiding.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00] Intro: Retail version 2.0: what's changed[01:58] Same salon, same clients, very different retail results[02:43] Why scripts and commissions don't solve retail[03:22] The three real reasons hairdressers should recommend retail[06:49] The 4 categories behind all retail objections[07:39] Skill issues: “I don't know how” and product knowledge[09:40] Mindset issues: “It's not my job”[12:09] Fear issues: The fear of being pushy or transactional[20:06] Systems issues and retail culture in salons[26:30] Final thoughts Want MORE to help you GROW?

Coaches are consuming more content than ever—books, podcasts, trainings—and yet many still freeze on calls, overthink what to say next, or default to advice-giving when clients get emotional or stuck. In this episode of The Art and Skill of Coaching, I name the skill gap most coaches feel but can't articulate: the gap between knowing coaching concepts and being able to execute them cleanly in real time. I'm joined by Cat—ASC graduate, peer coach, and collaborator inside The Art & Skill of Coaching—who helps break down why content consumption doesn't create mastery, and what actually makes coaching skills stick. We discuss: Why freezing on calls isn't a confidence or motivation problem—it's a training problem The difference between understanding coaching theory and being able to coach live Why mastery is an embodied skill (and how therapists and elite performers are actually trained) Inside the new ASC Intervention Library and how it teaches coaches how to coach, not just what to know If you've ever thought, "I know this… why can't I do it on a call?"—this episode will make it click.   Learn more about The Art & Skill of Coaching certification: https://www.jessicademarchis.com/the-art-skill-of-coaching   ASC Waitlist:  https://purple-lion-72607.myflodesk.com/ascwaitlist    Stay in Touch: www.jessicademarchis.com IG @jess_demarchis_coaching   The Coach Skill Audit: https://purple-lion-72607.myflodesk.com/coachskillaudit    Coach Question of the Week: https://purple-lion-72607.myflodesk.com/agcj1mr1y3    Catherine's IG: @cat_farrell_lifecoach   Why Intuition Isn't Coaching: How to Spot and Stop Projection in Sessions (Episode 181): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-art-skill-of-coaching/id1612960277?i=1000719596313

Nationally recognized psychiatrist, internist, and addiction medicine specialist Muhamad Aly Rifai discusses his article "How deprescribing in psychiatry offers a path to safer care." Muhamad explores the growing movement to reduce unnecessary medications in mental health care, a practice that has long been established in geriatrics but is now gaining traction in psychiatry. He describes the "prescribing cascade" where side effects are treated with more drugs, leading to patients feeling trapped in a cage of routine and chemical dependency. The conversation highlights the critical importance of having an exit plan for every prescription and distinguishing between withdrawal symptoms and relapse. Muhamad advocates for a culture shift where clinicians are empowered to stop interventions when harm outweighs benefit, ensuring that medicine remains a tool for healing rather than a permanent burden. Learn how a disciplined approach to deprescribing can restore patient agency and rebuild trust in the medical system. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Let's talk about the AI elephant in the room: hallucinations.

What happens when intelligence becomes cheap… and problem-solving becomes automated? In today's episode, Tim and Julie Harris go deep on one of the most important questions of our lifetime—and one every real estate agent must confront: What value does a human bring in a world where AI can out-think, out-analyze, and out-execute most professionals? We unpack the emerging reality of the commoditization of intelligence, and what it means when AI begins replacing humans who were historically valued for their IQ, reasoning skills, and ability to solve complex problems. Drawing on the perspectives of NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and tech investor Cathie Wood, we explore: Will the world's best CEOs eventually be AI? What happens to industries built on rigid power structures that reward “IQ over intuition”? Can AI ever truly develop intuition—or is there something uniquely human… a divine spark? What's the irreplaceable value of a human real estate agent (or any service professional)? How long until humanoid robots stop being shocking—and start being normal? Will AI create mass unemployment… or a massive human renaissance? Are we on the edge of a historic surge in freedom, time, and quality of life? This episode will challenge the way you see the future—and help you position yourself to thrive, lead, and profit in the next era of real estate.  If your 2026 plan is “hope,” you're already behind.

In this solo episode, Tracy Holland explains why InnerFifth is evolving in 2026, and why many women entrepreneurs feel capped, exhausted, or stuck despite having real influence. After years of building community, Tracy is making a decisive shift away from a broad membership model and into a focused accelerator. The reason is simple: selling, structure, and connection, not more content, are what create freedom now. Tracy shares a real example of a creator who went from zero to $348,000 in 10 months using live stream selling and community-led product creation, along with a clear breakdown of how InnerFifth will support women through execution, quarterly sprints, and real revenue goals. If you've built something real but feel under-leveraged, this episode brings clarity.  Episode Highlights Why InnerFifth is becoming a focused accelerator in 2026 The role live stream selling plays in modern revenue How community connection drives product success Why selling is the most important skill founders must master What to do if your business model capped out in 2023 How to productize a coaching or service-based business

Send us a textWhen a new year starts, a lot of people quietly hope their relationship will feel lighter by now.Less tension.Less distance.Fewer conversations that end in the same painful place.But if it still feels hard to get through to each other, this episode is your reminder that you're not broken and you're not alone.In this conversation, we unpack the skill that quietly determines whether your conversations create connection or turn into conflict: emotional regulation.Because most couples don't actually need “better communication” first.They need more emotional stability first.You'll learn why emotional regulation is the gateway skill that makes every other relationship tool work, especially when life feels intense, stressful, or unsafe and your nervous system is already carrying too much.In this episode, we cover:Why “we should just talk it through” often backfires when emotions are highHow stress and uncertainty show up as tone, impatience, and quick reactivity at homeThe missing concept most couples never learned: emotional capacity (and how it impacts conflict)How emotional regulation works in real life, using the “emotional plank” metaphorThe tiny moment where everything changes: catching tension early enough to choose a different responseA practical reframe that can stop escalation fast: shifting from “don't want” language to “want” languageWhy emotional regulation is not “being nice,” “stuffing it,” or “letting things slide”What to do when you feel like you're the only one doing the work (and why it still matters)A simple practice to build your regulation reps: short rounds of listening, even when you disagreeA challenge you can try today: a literal plank to connect the body to emotional tension and build awarenessKey takeawayIf conversations keep collapsing, it's often not because you don't love each other.It's because your nervous systems are overloaded and you're trying to have hard conversations without the foundation that makes them safe.Stability first. Clarity second.Need help getting unstuck?If you feel like you're living at the edge of capacity and you can't find clarity inside the conflict, book a free Clarity Call. It's a short, supportive conversation to help you slow down, feel seen, and get clear on your next step.Schedule here: stacibartley.com/applyTimestamps: 04:00 The Importance of Emotional Safety at Home08:03 Emotional Capacity and Resilience13:07 Practical Examples of Emotional Regulation18:06 The Power of Choice in Emotional Tension21:45 Focusing on Solutions, Not Problems26:23 The Impact of Emotional Awareness on Relationships28:05 Navigating Relationship Tensions29:45 Holding Tension for Yourself32:07 The Power of Demonstrated Behavior33:32 Practical Steps for Emotional Capacity35:35 Slowing Down in High-Stress Moments42:16 Building Emotional Awareness44:56 The Importance of Emotional Regulation50:28 Creating Safe Spaces in Relationships

The Mindset Shift That Separates Burnout from Breakthrough You've been told self-care is bubble baths and boundaries. But what if the real self-care is becoming the kind of person who doesn't need to recover from their own emotions every week? That's exactly what Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and I dig into in this episode. Dr. G is a board-certified physician and New York Times bestselling author who has worked with some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world. And she says the ones who sustain success over time have one thing in common: they stay neutral. Big win? Neutral. Big problem? Neutral. It's just another Tuesday. We go way beyond nutrition and fitness in this conversation. We're talking about why emotional neutrality is one of the most underrated entrepreneurial skills, why discipline is actually the new self-care, and why your health quietly determines how far your business can go. Dr. G also shares how to catch yourself before old patterns start creeping back in and how to use your physical body as a tool for confidence and clarity. If you've ever felt like your emotions are running your business instead of you, this one's for you. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Emotional Neutrality Is a Skill, Not a Personality Trait – The best entrepreneurs don't ride the highs and lows. They stay steady because as high as you let yourself go, that's how hard you'll crash. Neutrality isn't boring. It's sustainable. 2️⃣ Discipline Is the New Self-Care – Another episode or glass of wine isn't self-care if they pull you away from your standards. Real self-care is keeping promises to yourself, honoring your commitments, and building trust in your own word. 3️⃣ You Will Never Outgrow Your Health – Your business has a ceiling, and it's your body. You cannot outgrind your physiology. If you want to scale, your health has to come first. Not as a nice-to-have, but as the foundation everything else stands on.

I had such an experience with a colleague of mine with whom I was working on a highly contentious legal situation. It was high-risk and, to me, it seemed like there was very little gain. Nonetheless, it was my duty. I had to deal with it. Because the person had—not just because he had a lot more experience, but because he had practiced equanimity in his life—and luckily I was partnered with him in the project, I noticed that going into every conversation, he remained equipoised and only dealt with the facts at hand, without becoming overly anxious about the outcome. I noticed that he did this over several months. He just showed up. The way I described it to others was: 'He came with his lunchbox.' He dealt with the situation as duty. One of the reasons it left such an impression on me was I saw that, ultimately, everything worked itself out. Well, it didn't just 'work itself out'; the ongoing negotiations helped, but there was a favorable conclusion at the end. I had thought about the way in which this person had conducted himself through the whole process. I had also heard, in the context of a dialogue I had heard, when somebody was asked, 'Aren't you nervous or afraid?' and he said, 'Why would that help? Would it help if I became more nervous or overly concerned, or would it help if I just did what I could with what I have right now?' So, oftentimes, there's a palpable result in remaining equipoised: doing one's duty without becoming overly concerned with the result; doing what you can with what you have now. I mentioned these three features: one is it tends to de-escalate conflict; another is that it invites collaboration; and the third is we're able to make clearer decisions without becoming biased. Because we want to see a particular result, we deal with what we can in the moment, and that emotional regulation—which equanimity could be described as—becomes contagious. Have you ever been in a dialogue with somebody that's close to you? Oftentimes, as I've heard and experienced myself, if you're close to somebody day-to-day—maybe even live together or travel together—and then you have a conversation, emotions can flare. But if one or the other remains equipoised in the conversation, then it tends to spread to the other person as well. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #successsadhana#spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirit

Why More Leads Don't Fix a Broken Business Most agents think they need more leads to fix inconsistent income. But more leads don't fix broken systems — they expose them. When conversion, follow-up, and structure are weak, adding volume only creates stress, missed opportunities, and emotional burnout. In this episode, we break down why most agents don't have a lead problem — they have a conversion and system problem — and why listings, not lead volume, are what stabilize income. If more leads feel overwhelming instead of empowering, your business isn't asking for volume. It's asking for structure.

In this weeks episode, I sit down with Alex McNamara, a trades advocate, welder, rigger, and content creator who has become one of the loudest voices pushing for skilled trades education and tool literacy. Alex shares her unconventional path—from theater and set building to welding, rigging, and managing massive international live events, including work in Saudi Arabia. The conversation digs into why shop class disappeared, how that decision created today's skilled-labor shortage, and what individuals can do locally to help rebuild trades education. We also discuss women in the trades, workplace culture, confidence on the jobsite, the realities of PPE and workwear design, and why being yourself actually makes you better at your craft. This is an honest, funny, and deeply important conversation about identity, work ethic, and the future of skilled labor.  

In Episode 358 of the Mixing Music Podcast, hosts Dee Kei and Lu do a loose “New Year, New Goals” conversation focused on real, practical upgrades for working engineers, both technical and career-related. They start with the career side: how easy it is to get comfortable when work is steady, and why that comfort can quietly turn into less outreach, fewer in-person hangs, and slower networking. The guys talk about rebuilding the habit of showing up, saying hi, staying visible, and keeping relationships warm, even when you do not feel desperate for the next client. On the technical side, Dee Kei shares a simple but powerful listening habit for 2026: mixing at lower monitor volume more intentionally. He describes how turning the monitors down can instantly reveal vocal level problems and balance issues, especially when comparing what a limiter is doing to your drums and mix shape. They also get into the challenge of mixing a live performance EP to sound as close to the studio record as possible, including the reality of trying to make live drums feel more like samples. From there, the conversation turns into “skill stacking” and education. They talk about learning tools you may not personally prefer, simply because certain environments demand them, like Pro Tools in many studio workflows or Digico consoles in a lot of festival and live sound situations. They discuss the idea of getting Digico certified, what high-end live consoles are built for (including redundancy features), and why expanding your toolset can help you scale into bigger gigs. They also explore an unexpectedly practical idea: taking community college courses for cheap, from Pro Tools and recording classes to music business, marketing, and even basic economics and personal finance. The point is not chasing a degree, it is staying sharp, learning from experienced teachers, and intentionally investing in growth without going into debt. They wrap the episode by encouraging listeners to choose a technical goal for the year and keep it front of mind, plus a few fun side tangents that are very on brand.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

What actually changes when you invest in a high-level coaching certification? In this episode of The Art and Skill of Coaching, I'm joined by one of my current Art and Skill of Coaching (ASC)students—just one month away from graduation—who shares an honest, behind-the-scenes look at her experience inside the program. Jess is a holistic wellness coach with 15 years of experience bridging nutrition, fitness, and mindset. Despite her background, she noticed clear gaps in her coaching skills, confidence, and session effectiveness—gaps that ultimately led her to ASC. We talk about: The biggest challenges she faced as an experienced coach (both skill-based and business-related) What made her choose ASC over other coaching certifications How her coaching identity, confidence, and depth have changed The tangible results she's created inside the program—while caring for a newborn What truly makes ASC different from other coaching programs If you're considering becoming a coach, already coaching but want to go deeper, or looking for a science-based, professional coaching certification that actually changes how you coach—this episode will help you decide your next step.

Let's talk about the one skill you absolutely MUST develop as a business owner - especially now, in this economic environment. It's not a trendy hack or secret formula - it's something powerful, practical, and completely learnable. I've noticed that many women building a business try to sidestep this skill because it pushes them out of their comfort zone. They feel uncertain, maybe even a little scared. But if you don't do it, you'll never get your business out of first gear. And unfortunately that's the reality for so many - why their business remains a side hustle even after years of effort. And … why the small biz failure rate is so high! Ok, let's get down to businesses In this episode we'll bust the myths around what it means to “do marketing” and why you don't need to be an extroverted, pushy promoter to set your business up for real success. Here's what you'll hear more about: Why directing your own marketing strategy is non-negotiable - and what happens if you try to hand it off to someone else. What truly matters in your marketing, from positioning and offers, to focusing on the right people (not just anyone with a pulse). How to build a simple, clear pathway that takes potential clients from “never heard of you” all the way to “raving fan” Why copying someone else's strategy will never work for your unique business, and what to do instead. How you can create a system for your business that feels easy, not exhausting - even if “marketing” usually gives you the chills. If you've ever wished marketing could feel natural and aligned (and actually get you the clients you want), this episode is for you.

Today, we're exploring the resilience entrepreneurs need to navigate the uncertainty we're all experiencing right now. In this episode, Eric explains that navigating uncertainty requires resilience, which is strengthened by taking action, embracing continuous learning, and serving others. He shares personal stories to illustrate that every business or career inevitably faces doubt, setbacks, and challenges. Tune in to discover how you can keep moving forward, even when everything feels unpredictable. Starting a Business Requires Action, Not Certainty When launching a business, there are no guarantees. Belief matters, but execution matters more. Progress comes from putting your head down, working consistently, and surrounding yourself with people who are honest, supportive, and willing to challenge you rather than flatter you. Complacency Growth stops the moment complacency begins. Staying slightly uncomfortable keeps you alert, curious, and engaged. Continuous effort and self-reflection are essential for staying sharp and avoiding stagnation. Crisis Exposes Character Coming close to losing everything during a significant event because of someone else's dishonesty was a hard lesson for Eric. What saved the situation wasn't luck or wishful thinking, but taking responsibility, being honest with his clients, and moving fast. Problem-Solving No major project ever goes exactly as planned. The ability to respond, adapt, and find solutions is not an exception in this industry. It is the job. Those who enjoy action under pressure are the ones who last. Economic Crises During downturns, survival depends on protecting top talent, staying visible, and actively maintaining relationships. Retreating increases risk. Engagement builds resilience even when timelines and recovery remain uncertain. Adaptation Is a Strategic Skill Every crisis requires assessing the environment, forming hypotheses, taking action, and adjusting along the way. Waiting for perfect information only prolongs uncertainty. Decisions create clarity. Learning Growth requires deliberate, consistent learning. Times like COVID revealed how little time most professionals dedicate to learning. Skill development, deep thinking, and education matter more than passive exposure to occasional industry content. Focus on What You Can Control We cannot control geopolitics, tariffs, and global instability. Action, learning, and contribution can. Progress comes from directing your energy toward improvement, simplification, and making a meaningful impact rather than speculation. Technology as a Tool for Growth, Not Fear AI and automation create uncertainty, but also opportunity. The goal is not to resist change, but to allow technology to simplify your processes, operate more effectively, and serve people better. The Three Anchors in Uncertainty Taking action, learning continuously, and helping others will create stability even when the world remains unpredictable. Those habits don't remove uncertainty, but they will make it more manageable. A Growth Mindset Changes Everything A growth mindset turns challenges into fuel rather than barriers. Stress, change, and disruption always bring opportunities for those willing to adapt and stay curious.

We are just weeks away from opening my new IMPACT-X Performance facility in San Diego, CA. And one of the most important things from the start is creating an amazing culture. We did it at Fitness Quest 10. And we'll do it again. In today's episode of the IMPACT SHOW podcast, I'm going ALL-IN on why culture is the ultimate performance advantage—and why it will always outperform strategy, systems, or talent alone. This isn't theory or buzzwords. This is real-time leadership straight from the trenches as we prepare to open IXP-San Diego from the ground up (literally!). I'm sharing exactly what it takes to build a world-class culture from Day One, the mistakes that leaders sometimes make that can quietly destroy an organization, and the non-negotiable standards that high-performing teams must live by every single day to build, grow, and sustain an iconic culture. If you're a leader, coach, gym owner, or business owner who wants stronger teams, deeper loyalty, and an even more long-lasting impact—this episode is for YOU. Here are just a few things you'll learn in Episode 463: Why culture always beats strategy (and determines whether plans live or die). The biggest leadership mistakes that can silently destroy culture. Why you don't get the culture you want—you get the culture you lead and tolerate Real examples from world-class brands like Ritz-Carlton, Nordstrom, Chick-fil-A, Disney, Amazon, and more… How to define and live out a clear brand promise. The IMPACT-X Performance Culture Standards, including these 5 credos: o Be the Light – bringing energy, belief, and encouragement into every interaction o People First, Always – seeing the person before the protocol o Own the Experience – if it happens in our building, it's our responsibility o Energy Is a Skill – we don't wait for it, we choose it o Excellence Is the Baseline – good is never good enough                                                      o Leave a Legacy – every interaction is a chance to change a life 3-critical culture rules every leader must enforce: Why one wrong hire with the wrong energy can undo years of great work…and how to prevent it through our proven hiring process. Why it is that two organizations that have the same strategy, the same talent, and even the same resources—one can thrive and excel…while the other slowly falls apart and dies. How culture compounds—for better or worse. Get it RIGHT from the start! Remember my friends, culture is not a mission statement hanging on a wall or a list of values buried on a website. It's not what you say when things are easy or when business is booming. Culture is revealed under pressure. It shows up in how your team treats each other when no one is watching, how they respond when things go wrong, and how your clients and members feel the moment they walk through the door—and the moment they leave. Culture doesn't improve just because time passes or systems change. It improves when leadership improves. You don't get the culture you hope for or wish for—you get the culture you lead, model, and tolerate every single day. So here's the challenge. Don't wait until energy drops, turnover rises, or cracks start to show before you address culture. Start now. Take a hard look at the standards you're enforcing, the behaviors you're allowing, and the energy you're bringing into every room you walk into. Have the conversations you've been avoiding. Reinforce the standards that matter most. And remember—culture starts with you.  If this episode spoke to you, share it with your team, talk about it in your next meeting, and commit to building a culture that's intentional, aligned, and world-class. Because when you lead culture the right way, everything else—performance, loyalty, and impact—follows.  Please do me a favor and do 1 (or all 3) of the following things: 1.

In this episode, we break patient outcomes down into a simple but powerful formula:Patient Outcomes = Skill × TimeYou need:The skill to understand what's actually driving someone's symptomsAnd the time for healing, behavior change, tissue adaptation, relationship-building, and clinical reasoning to unfoldMiss either one — and outcomes suffer.We talk about:Why outcomes can't be separated from both clinician skill and available timeHow testing your hypotheses requires both technical ability and space to observe changeWhy healing, strength, and behavior change don't happen on insurance-driven timelinesHow different practice models dramatically affect the “time” variableThis conversation was sparked by recent rhetoric criticizing cash-based care — and instead of taking the bait, we zoomed out and asked a better question:What actually creates great outcomes?This episode sets the foundation for future discussions about systems, incentives, and why clinicians often feel frustrated despite doing their best work.

"Persuasion is about your intent. If your intent is solely to win at the other person's expense, that's manipulation. If you want the other party to also benefit from the conversation, then that's collaborative, and that's ethical persuasion." - Martin John Procurement leaders know that success often depends on more than just negotiating skills or cost models; it demands the ability to influence people at every level.  But what does it take to move from presenting facts to truly persuading suppliers, stakeholders, and executives to take action? This is a question that's more urgent than ever in today's complex business environment. In this episode of Art of Procurement, Philip Ideson speaks with Martin John, a seasoned procurement pro and licensed ethical persuasion trainer. Martin shares tools and science-backed frameworks that chief procurement officers and their teams can use right away. He pulls back the curtain on Cialdini's principles, real-world negotiation stories, and how to avoid crossing the line into manipulation. In this episode, Martin discusses how to: Recognize the thin line between ethical persuasion and manipulation Build trust and rapport faster using evidence, not guesswork Move beyond data to engage the emotions and subconscious drivers of decision-makers Translate behavioral science into everyday procurement Links: Martin John on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

In this episode I'm going to be teaching you the most useful skill to make all of your divorce healing possible. I start by breaking down the three common ways of dealing with emotions - resisting, avoiding, reacting and explain why they keep you stuck. Then I'll introduce the fourth option: allowance. This practical, compassionate skill teaches you to name the emotion in a single word, locate it physically, and stay present until the chemical storm passes. No fixing, no judgment.I'll offer simple prompts to help you as you start implementing this skill into your daily life and finish up with my own example of how I used this just the other day in my personal life. This is how you rebuild trust in yourself after divorce: by proving, moment by moment, that no feeling is too big for you to handle. You don't need to become a robot to move forward. You need a body-level practice that makes space for the full human experience. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick rating or review.
