    If you're the one everyone relies on, your boundaries might be the reason you're burning out. This is for the high achiever who's carrying too much, feeling stressed, and quietly running on empty. And yes—this includes how to set boundaries at work without guilt or conflict. Somewhere along the way, many capable people start to confuse their value with their availability. You become the reliable one. The strong one. The person who can handle it. And before you know it, you're overextended and quietly exhausted from overfunctioning. If you've been wondering how to set boundaries without guilt, how to stop overfunctioning, or how people pleasing and boundaries get tangled together, this conversation will give you clarity and practical direction. I'm joined by Ginny Priem, keynote speaker, Master Certified Professional Life Coach, bestselling author, and host of the Unsubscribe Podcast. We talk about the signs of stress in the body, trusting your intuition, boundary pushback, and what to do when boundary busters resist your growth. You'll learn how to set boundaries at work without conflict, how to communicate limits calmly, and why boundaries aren't about controlling others, they're about deciding what you're willing to participate in. As you listen, consider: Where have you equated your worth with how much you can carry? Episode Breakdown: 00:00 How High Achievers Start Overfunctioning 07:22 Signs of Stress in the Body 14:13 Trusting Your Intuition When Something Feels Off 23:51 How to Set Boundaries Without Guilt 29:45 The Unsubscribe Framework: Block, Mute, Swap, Manage 33:48 Setting Boundaries at Work Without Conflict 45:45 Final Reflections on Boundaries and Burnout If you're ready to move from insight into action, I'd love to invite you to schedule a consultation with someone on my team at Growing Self.

Developed by Peter Steinberger in November 2025, the project reached 196,000 GitHub stars in three months. Architecture and Persistent Memory Operational Loop: Gateway receives message, loads SOUL.md (personality), USER.md (user context), and MEMORY.md (persistent history), calls LLM for tool execution, streams response, and logs data. Memory System: Compounds context over months. Users should prompt the agent to remember specific preferences to update MEMORY.md. Heartbeats: Proactive cron-style triggers for automated actions, such as 6:30 AM briefings or inbox triage. Skills: 5,705+ community plugins via ClawHub. The agent can author its own skills by reading API documentation and writing TypeScript scripts. Claude Code Integration Mobile to Deploy Workflow: The claude-code-skill bridge provides OpenClaw access to Bash, Read, Edit, and Git tools via Telegram. Agent Teams: claude-team manages multiple workers in isolated git worktrees to perform parallel refactors or issue resolution. Interoperability: Use mcporter to share MCP servers between Claude Code and OpenClaw. Industry Comparisons vs n8n: Use n8n for deterministic, zero-variance pipelines. Use OpenClaw for reasoning and ambiguous natural language tasks. vs Claude Cowork: Cowork is a sandboxed, desktop-only proprietary app. OpenClaw is an open-source, mobile-first, 24/7 daemon with full system access. Professional Applications Therapy: Voice to SOAP note transcription. PHI requires local Ollama models due to a lack of encryption at rest in OpenClaw. Marketing: claw-ads for multi-platform ad management, Mixpost for scheduling, and SearXNG for search. Finance: Receipt OCR and Google Drive filing. Requires human review to mitigate non-deterministic LLM errors. Real Estate: Proactive transaction deadline monitoring and memory-driven buyer matching. Security and Operations Hardening: Bind to localhost, set auth tokens, and use Tailscale for remote access. Default settings are unsafe, exposing over 135,000 instances. Injection Defense: Add instructions to SOUL.md to treat external emails and web pages as hostile. Costs: Software is MIT-licensed. API costs are paid per-token or bundled via a Claude subscription key. Onboarding: Run the BOOTSTRAP.md flow immediately after installation to define agent personality before requesting tasks.

    In this episode of the Federal Help Center Podcast, Colin Nchako breaks down one of the most common mistakes small businesses make in government contracting: confusing talent with expertise. Colin shares how he recently restructured his own capability statement, shortened his positioning language, and redefined his business around what the government actually buys — not what sounds impressive. The key lesson? You can add new skills to your business, but if you don't intentionally build and position expertise around them, the government won't see the value. Colin also pulls back the curtain on why training, SOP development, and knowledge-based services are some of the most overlooked — and most profitable — opportunities in GovCon. From in-person training to e-learning and standard operating procedures, he explains how leveraging existing skills, packaging them correctly, and building credibility over time can unlock faster wins and larger contract vehicles like OASIS. This episode is a wake-up call for contractors sitting on valuable skills they haven't fully monetized yet. Key Takeaways Talent isn't enough — expertise is built, positioned, and proven over time Training, SOPs, and knowledge services are high-margin, high-demand opportunities Clear positioning in your capability statement directly impacts contract size and access to major vehicles If you want to learn more about the community and to join the webinars go to: https://federalhelpcenter.com/  Website: https://govcongiants.org/  Connect with Encore Funding: http://govcongiants.org/funding

A growth-oriented mindset is not optional for entrepreneurs and rainmakers. Those who thrive train themselves to see obstacles as openings, not endings.Relying solely on servicing others' clients limits mobility and control. Developing your own clients creates long-term security and professional freedom. Rainmaking is a learnable skill built through systems, discipline, and study.High-value leaders focus only on work they alone can do. Everything else can be delegated, automated, or systemized through tools and virtual teams. Intentional tech stacks and strong delegation enable autonomy, even four-day workweeks.Skills can be trained, but values and attitude determine long-term fit. Toxic hires damage momentum and must be addressed quickly. Great leaders invest in coaches, mentors, and team development to sustain growth. "Your staff are your dream builders.

    Akshay Verma, COO of SpotDraft explores his non-linear journey through the legal industry. From his early days as a big-law paralegal to lawyer to a business development role to leading legal operations at tech leaders like Facebook and Coinbase, Akshay shares his unique perspective on why the most successful legal departments prioritize process over technology. The conversation dives deep into the realities of Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), the evolution of the "agentic" legal tool, and why change management is the biggest hurdle for legal innovation. Akshay also discusses the "underdog mentality" that drew him to the startup world and the future of AI in legal workflows. Key Takeaways: Process First: Technology is not a "magic pill" for broken workflows; centralized repositories and defined approval chains must come first. The Power of BD: Business development skills (evangelism and resilience) are critical for successful legal operations leaders. The "Holy Trifecta" of Legal Tech: Every department needs a CLM, a Spend Management tool (at scale), and an agentic Workflow/Intake tool.

    Thinking Christian: Clear Theology for a Confusing World
    The Listening Church: Loneliness, Mental Health, and the Skills Every Christian Needs (Dr. Jackie E. Perry)

    Thinking Christian: Clear Theology for a Confusing World

    What if a major driver of today’s mental health crisis isn’t simply “more disorders,” but more people who feel unseen, unheard, and alone? In this episode of the Thinking Christian Podcast, Dr. James Spencer talks with Dr. Jackie E. Perry—Clinical Supervisor, Professor of Counselor Education at Columbia International University, and President of the Soulwell Center—about loneliness, the loss of emotional connection, and why the church must recover the skill of attuned listening. Jackie explains how the Soulwell Center began: while teaching counselor “helping skills,” she realized many of those relational tools could be taught in a lay-friendly way to parents, pastors, and everyday Christians. The result is a training approach that combines practical listening techniques with the neuroscience of relationships—equipping people to hold a safe space where others can feel truly “seen and known.” James and Jackie discuss a trend Jackie has observed across decades in the mental health field: in the last 10–15 years, more clients have been coming not primarily with severe pathology, but because they don’t have anyone who listens. Therapy becomes a paid place of connection—something that should not be rare in Christian community. The conversation explores how technology can create distance (including the rise of AI-mediated communication), why many people lack a “mental model” for deep listening, and how shame and perceived “threat” can make relational closeness feel unsafe. Jackie introduces the concept of “eyes of delight”—the nonverbal experience of being attended to with warmth—and explains why nonverbal presence often does more than words. They also connect listening to the broader formation of disciples: without embodied, relational connection, people drift into isolation, cope through substitutes, and struggle to develop distress tolerance—the ability to endure discomfort and stay engaged through conflict, hardship, and the messiness of real relationships. The result is not only loneliness, but fragility and retreat from vocation, mission, and spiritual maturity. In the end, Jackie offers a simple but demanding vision: the church must become a community that can listen across difference and reflect the “eyes of Christ.” That kind of faithful presence is not optional—it is essential for discipleship, mental health, and a credible Christian witness today. Topics include: Soulwell Center’s mission and the “listening course” Loneliness, mental health, and why therapy becomes a substitute for community “Eyes of delight” and the neuroscience of connection Shame, vulnerability, and why being known can feel threatening Nonverbal communication and why presence matters Distress tolerance, overprotection, and the formation of resilient adults What the church must recover to make faithful disciples You can purchase Heart Cries of Every Teen here.

I explore how iterative cycles of draft, feedback, and intentional revision strengthen motivation, reinforce growth mindset, and position students as decision-makers in their own learning. Rather than treating AI as a shortcut to polished work, I explain why the real cognitive lift happens in the refinement process. I also share classroom examples and developmental insights to help you design learning experiences where feedback fuels growth and students remain accountable for their thinking.

Yitzchak Pierson then led a powerful training: “AI-Ready Real Estate Agent Skills You Must Have for 2027.” His message was clear—AI will enhance agents, not replace them. The future belongs to agents who master trust-building, interpretation, local authority, decision guidance, visibility, and system thinking. He encouraged agents to delegate low-value tasks, leverage AI for efficiency, and double down on the human elements that build confidence and connection. The key takeaway: clarity, relevance, and trust will define long-term success in the AI-driven real estate landscape.

    In this episode, host Travis Chappell sits down with Seth Silvers, founder and CEO of Story On, one of the premier podcast production agencies helping businesses build authority through storytelling. Seth and his team work with top-tier creators and brands—including Alex Hormozi, Leila Hormozi, and Patrick Lencioni—and support numerous Top 100 business podcasts. Seth shares his journey from taking on almost any marketing work he could find to building a premium podcast agency, along with hard-earned lessons on pricing, positioning, and why podcasting is one of the most powerful long-term branding tools available today. On this episode we talk about: How Seth accidentally turned podcasting into a full-time business Using podcasts to build trust and credibility (even without massive downloads) Why most podcasters struggle to monetize—and a better path forward Structuring service offers and pricing without racing to the bottom The future of podcasting: video, branding, and podcasts as a business asset Top 3 Takeaways: Podcasting creates a “transfer of trust.” When people see you show up with quality, they assume you bring that same standard to everything you do. Pricing clarity changes everything. Seth credits implementing ideas from Profit First as a major turning point in getting out of debt and building a sustainable business. Premium clients care more about results than price. Solving higher-level problems for established businesses beats competing on cost every time. Notable Quotes “People see you show up in a quality way, and they transfer that trust to everything else you do.” “If you want us to actually do it for you, it's going to be a premium—but we also have resources for every level.” “Podcasting isn't a quick customer-acquisition tool.

    What does it look like to cling to God after the death of a child, when the pain feels suffocating, forgiveness feels impossible, and trust feels fragile? In this powerful continuation of Laura's conversation with Linda Dillow, they explore the remaining heart skills that help grieving parents hold on to God and not give up. They talk honestly about lament as worship in a minor key, choosing trust over fear, the ongoing act of forgiveness (even when it must be repeated again and again), finding encouragement in God's presence, and allowing praise to slowly become the language of a surrendered heart. If you are walking through child loss and wondering how to keep going, this episode will gently remind you that you are not expected to “get over” your grief. This is a journey taken one step, one breath at a time. God meets you in the mess, in the anger, in the questions, and invites you to experience His love in a deeper way than head knowledge alone. You may not know what tomorrow holds. But you can learn, even in grief, to trust the One who holds tomorrow. Linda's new book is Hope for my Hurting Heart. She is also the author of several bestselling books, including Calm My Anxious Heart, Satisfy My Thirsty Soul and Intimate Issues. Linda and her husband, Jody, ministered in the former East European Communist countries and in Asia for eighteen years, training the leadership of the church. They have four grown children (one in heaven) and ten amazing grandchildren. Linda loves to encourage women to hope in God and trust in His faithfulness!

    Ken Johnson and Seth Law examine the intensifying pressure on security practitioners as AI-driven development causes an unprecedented acceleration in industry velocity. A primary theme is the emergence of "shadow AI," where developers utilize unauthorized AI coding assistants and personal agents, introducing significant data classification risks and supply chain vulnerabilities. The discussion dives into technical concepts like AI agent "skills"—markdown files providing specialized directions—and the corresponding security risks found in new skill registries, such as malicious tools designed to exfiltrate credentials and crypto assets. The hosts also review 1Password's SCAM (Security Comprehension Awareness Measure), highlighting broad performance gaps in an AI's ability to detect phishing, with some models failing up to 65% of the time. To manage these unpredictable systems, the hosts advocate for a shift toward high-level validation roles, emphasizing the need for Subject Matter Expertise to combat "reasoning drift" and maintain safety through test-driven development and periodic "checkpoints". Ultimately, they conclude that while AI can simulate expertise, human oversight remains vital to secure the probabilistic nature of modern agentic workflows.

    In this episode, I'm sharing how I think about value now, after years of refining my own pricing and helping dozens of people refine theirs. For a long time, many of us were taught to measure our work in hours and deliverables. But when I zoomed out, I realised my clients weren't paying for time. They were paying for what changed because of the work, what became easier, what started earning, what stopped feeling heavy. When your pricing doesn't reflect that wider impact, it creates pressure. You either feel underpaid or you overextend yourself trying to prove your fee.I walk you through the framework I created to solve this — TESSA. It's the system I've used for the last four years to help service providers stop guessing their rates and start pricing in a way that feels grounded and strategic.We look at Time, Energy, Skills, Specialism and Asset value, the five layers that exist in your work whether you're acknowledging them or not. When you price across all five, the numbers begin to make sense.If pricing has felt like the piece of your business that keeps wobbling, I recorded this for you. I want you to feel proud when you say your price. I want your business to feel expansive rather than draining. And I want you to have a structure that supports you long-term, rather than changing your rates every few months because you're unsure.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy pricing based purely on hours keeps you cappedHow clients actually experience valueThe link between undercharging and burnoutWhat I mean by “high energy tax”How your experience and training should shape your pricingWhy specialism increases your perceived valueWhen asset value and ROI should be factored inThe 5-part TESSA framework and how to apply it“When you only price on time, you either undercharge for the depth of your expertise or you overwork to justify the price.”If pricing has been the thing you constantly spiral over, the thing that makes you second-guess yourself, over-deliver, or quietly resent your work join my new pricing bootcamp, Rave Your Rates.

    In this episode Andrea Samadi revisits Season 15's foundation with Dr. Bruce Perry to explore how safety, regulation, and patterned experience shape the brain's capacity to learn and create. We examine why potential must be activated through repetition, rhythm, and low-threat environments, and how trauma, stress, or dysregulation block learning. Takeaways include practical steps for educators, parents, and leaders: prioritize nervous-system safety before instruction, use micro-repetition to build skills, and employ storytelling to make scientific ideas stick. This episode anchors Phase 1 of the season: regulation, rhythm, repetition, and relational safety as the prerequisites for sustainable performance and lasting change. This week, Episode 385—based on our review of Episode 168 recorded in October 2021—we explore: ✔ 1. Genetic Potential vs. Developed Capacity We are born with extraordinary biological potential. But experience determines which neural systems become functional. The brain builds what it repeatedly uses. ✔ 2. The Brain Is Use-Dependent Language, emotional regulation, leadership skills, motor precision— all are wired through patterned, rhythmic repetition. ✔ 3. Trauma, Regulation & Learning A dysregulated nervous system cannot efficiently learn. Safety, rhythm, and relational connection come before strategy. ✔ 4. “What Happened to You?” vs. “What's Wrong with You?” Shifting from judgment to curiosity changes how we approach: Children Students Teams Ourselves ✔ 5. Early Experience Shapes Long-Term Expression Developmental inputs—especially patterned, early ones— determine which capacities are strengthened. ✔ 6. Repetition Builds Confidence Confidence is not a personality trait. It is neural circuitry built through structured repetition in safe environments. ✔ 7. Story Makes Science Stick From Dr. Perry's experience writing with Oprah: You can't tell everybody everything you know. Impact comes from: One core idea Wrapped in story Delivered with restraint ✔ 8. Information Overload Weakens Learning Depth > Volume Clarity > Density Retention > Impressive Data ✔ 9. Regulation Comes Before Motivation Before goals. Before performance. Before achievement. The nervous system must feel safe. ✔ 10. Season 15's Foundational Question Is the nervous system safe enough to learn? Welcome back to Season 15 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast. I'm Andrea Samadi, and here we bridge the science behind social and emotional learning, emotional intelligence, and practical neuroscience—so we can create measurable improvements in well-being, achievement, productivity, and results. When we launched this podcast seven years ago, it was driven by a question I had never been taught to ask— not in school, not in business, and not in life: If results matter—and they matter now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make these results happen? Most of us were taught what to do. Very few of us were taught how to think under pressure, how to regulate emotion, how to sustain motivation, or even how to produce consistent results without burning out. That question led me into a deep exploration of the mind–brain–results connection—and how neuroscience applies to everyday decisions, conversations, and performance. That's why this podcast exists. Each week, we bring you leading experts to break down complex science and translate it into practical strategies you can apply immediately. If you've been with us through Season 14, you may have felt something shift. That season wasn't about collecting ideas. It was about integrating these ideas into our daily life, as we launched our review of past episodes. Across conversations on neuroscience, social and emotional learning, sleep, stress, exercise, nutrition, and mindset frameworks—we heard from voices like Bob Proctor, José Silva, Dr. Church, Dr. John Medina, and others—one thing became clear: These aren't separate tools that we are covering in each episode. They're parts of one operating system. When the brain, body, and emotions are aligned, performance stops feeling forced—and starts to feel sustainable. Season 14 showed us what alignment looks like in real life. We looked at goals and mental direction, rewiring the brain, future-ready learning and leadership, self-leadership, which ALL led us to inner alignment. And now we move into Season 15 that is about understanding how that alignment is built—so we can build it ourselves, using predictable, science-backed principles. Because alignment doesn't happen all at once. It happens by using a sequence. And when we understand the order of that sequence — we can replicate it. By repeating this sequence over and over again, until magically (or predictably) we notice our results have changed. So Season 15 we've organized as a review roadmap, where each episode explores one foundational brain system—and each phase builds on the one before it. Season 15 Roadmap: Phase 1 — Regulation & Safety Phase 2 — Neurochemistry & Motivation Phase 3 — Movement, Learning & Cognition Phase 4 — Perception, Emotion & Social Intelligence Phase 5 — Integration, Insight & Meaning PHASE 1: REGULATION & SAFETY Staples: Sleep + Stress Regulation Core Question: Is the nervous system safe enough to learn? Anchor Episodes Episode 384 — Baland Jalal How learning begins: curiosity, sleep, imagination, creativity Bruce Perry “What happened to you?” — trauma, rhythm, relational safety Sui Wong Autonomic balance, lifestyle medicine, brain resilience Rohan Dixit HRV, real-time self-regulation, nervous system literacy Last week we began with Phase One: Regulation and Safety as we revisited Dr. Baland Jalal's interview from June 2022. EP 384 — Dr. Baland Jalal[i] Dr. Baland Jalal This episode sits at the foundation of Season 15. Dr. Baland Jalal is a Harvard neuroscientist whose work explores how sleep, imagination, and curiosity shape the brain's capacity to learn and create. What stood out to me then — and even more now — is that learning doesn't begin with effort. It begins when the brain is rested, regulated, and free to explore possibility. This conversation reminds us that creativity isn't added later — it's built into the brain when conditions are right. It's here we remember that before learning can happen, before curiosity can emerge, before motivation or growth is possible— the brain must feel safe. And what better place to begin with safety and the brain, than with Dr. Bruce Perry, who we met October of 2021 on EP 168.[ii] EP 385 — Dr. Bruce Perry Dr. Bruce Perry (Episode 168 – October 2021) Dr. Bruce Perry, Senior Fellow of the Child Trauma Academy in Houston, Texas, and Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, joined the podcast to help us better understand how traumatic experiences shape the developing brain. At the time, I was deeply concerned about the generational impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In one of Dr. Perry's trainings, he referenced research conducted after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which showed that families exposed to prolonged stress experienced increased rates of substance abuse — not only in those directly affected, but in the next generation as well. As I began hearing reports of rising depression, anxiety, and substance use during the pandemic, I wondered: What could we do now to reduce the long-term neurological and emotional impact on our children, our schools, and future generations? Dr. Perry agreed to come on the show to share insights from his work and to discuss his book, co-authored with Oprah Winfrey: What Happened to You: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience and Healing.[iii] Dr. Bruce Perry challenges one of the most common questions we ask in education, leadership, and parenting. Instead of asking, “What's wrong with you?” he asks, “What happened to you?” In this conversation, we explored how early experiences shape the brain, how trauma disrupts regulation, and why healing begins with rhythm, safety, and connection. You can find a link to our full interview in the resource section in the show notes. This episode anchors Season 15 by reminding us: a dysregulated brain cannot learn — no matter how good the strategy. Let's go to our first clip with Dr. Bruce Perry, and look deeper at how we are all born with potential, but our experience builds the rest.

    Core doula skills shape the whole room, not your bag of tricks. You do not build strong support by collecting more tools. You build it through presence, attunement, communication, and timing, in real time, with real clients. These skills show up when things feel tense. When plans change. When your client looks at you for answers you cannot give. When the room speeds up and you feel your own nervous system kick up. They grow through experience, reflection, and repetition. You notice what you do when you feel unsure. You practice staying grounded. You say less, listen more, and choose your moments. Over time, you stop scrambling and start leading with calm. This conversation gives you a simple way to remember the four doula pillars, PACT, and how to use them in birth and postpartum. It also gives you a small, realistic practice plan so you can train one skill at a time instead of trying to fix everything at once. This episode is for doulas who want to feel more confident, support clearer decision-making, and help keep your cliens grounded in the moments that matter most.
