Podcasts about Small Changes

What determines who you vote for?  You probably think it's due to rational reasons. Economy. Sustainability. Immigration. Growth.  But research shows that your choice of vote isn't as logical as you might expect.  In fact, all of our votes can be swayed by a largely irrelevant factor.  And this factor can be used to change what we eat, wear, drink and buy.  Hear how, on today's episode of Nudge with Phil Graves. ---  Phil's book: https://shorturl.at/kzAta Phil's consultancy: https://www.philipgraves.net/consultancy/ Subscribe to the (free) Nudge Newsletter: https://nudge.ck.page/profile  Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/  Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ --- Today's sources: Cialdini, R.

Send us a textThis episode of Research Rundown explores the concept of ego depletion, the idea that self-control is a limited resource that can be exhausted by daily demands. Becca explains how teachers' resistance to new instructional practices may stem from mental fatigue rather than defiance. She shares research by Roy Baumeister and offers strategies for coaches to support teachers, such as clarifying expectations, protecting time, and understanding individual drains. The episode encourages educators to recognize the difference between exhaustion and pushback.

In this conversation, Sam and Jess discuss the concept of cutting back on food consumption without feeling deprived. They emphasize the importance of mindful eating and provide practical tips for reducing unnecessary intake. The discussion highlights how small changes can lead to significant impacts on overall health and well-being. The hosts encourage listeners to be aware of their eating habits and to focus on making gradual adjustments rather than drastic changes.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Cutting Back Mindfully02:51 The Importance of Food Freedom05:53 Mindless Eating and Portion Control09:03 The Impact of Small Changes on Nutrition12:02 Understanding Caloric Intake and Its Effects14:54 Mindfulness in Eating Habits17:58 Practical Steps for Mindful Eating20:55 Conclusion and Next StepsTakeawaysCutting back on energy consumption doesn't mean starving yourself.Mindless eating often leads to unnecessary calorie intake.Being aware of your eating habits can lead to better choices.It's okay to enjoy your favorite foods in moderation.Portion control can significantly impact your overall consumption.Making coffee at home can save calories and money.Waiting a few minutes before going for seconds can prevent overeating.Food freedom allows you to enjoy treats without guilt.Mindful eating can enhance your overall dining experience.Small changes can lead to significant health benefits.Join The BFF App - Get 7 Days Free

First up is Paul Dowling & Jacqueline Ffrench who come from PD Ceramics (https://pdceramics.ie/) in Ireland. Paul grew up in a dental family and played in the shed in the backyard that was the lab. After attending lab school in London, Paul came back to Ireland and opened his own lab. Knowing teeth and not business, Paul recruits Jacqueline from a dental office to help. Jacqueline is good with business and saw the struggles in the lab and set out to make it a better place. Now she and Paul are starting to do it all over Ireland. Then from many miles away (at IDS it seems that way) we are joined by Thomas Baaske, the Global Technical Product Manager at Ivoclar (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us) Vivadent AG. That means he oversees a lot of the digital materials and equipment for Ivoclar and there is a lot.

What if your resistance to change isn't weakness, but wisdom trying to keep you safe? In this eye-opening episode, Meghan explores the fascinating concept of "immunity to change"—why even the smallest shifts can feel impossibly difficult, and why willpower alone isn't enough. Drawing from groundbreaking research by psychologists Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey, she reveals how our unconscious "competing commitments" create an internal tug-of-war that sabotages our best intentions. Through personal stories and practical examples, Meghan shows how to work with your resistance instead of against it, using gentle experiments to test the fears that keep you stuck. Whether you've been beating yourself up for not following through on micro-pivots, or you're curious why change feels so hard even when you genuinely want it, this episode offers a compassionate new framework for understanding your inner protective system. Essential listening for anyone ready to stop fighting themselves and start creating sustainable change from a place of self-compassion.

When Main Street Meets Superpowers: Building Community Through Localism, Crowdfunding, and CollaborationEach month, I have the genuine privilege of sitting down with my friend and colleague Jen Risley, editor of The Main Street Journal, for a conversation that bridges our shared passion for impact, innovation, and community-rooted change. Our most recent dialogue was no exception—it was a deeply thoughtful exchange exploring the intersections of decentralization, localism, and the real power of community-centered finance.And this month's chat brought a bonus: the announcement of Main Street Journal's most-read issue to date, “A Localism Manifesto.” It's an extraordinary piece that's resonating not only with Jen's readers but now across the broader Substack ecosystem. If you haven't read it yet, consider this your personal invitation.But beyond just catching up on what's new in our respective publications, this conversation highlighted something more powerful: the way our two newsletters—Main Street Journal and Superpowers for Good—complement and enrich each other. So today, I'd like to recap our exchange, share some exciting announcements, and invite you to subscribe to both newsletters for the full scope of this evolving conversation around community, capital, and change.A Localism Manifesto: Decentralization with HeartJen opened our chat by highlighting the incredible traction “A Localism Manifesto” has gained since its release on July 10. Penned with contributions from Paul Spinrad and Michael H. Shuman, the manifesto doesn't just explore the theoretical underpinnings of decentralization—it invites community members to shape its next iteration. That's not just content; that's co-creation.For Jen, the concept of decentralism was initially daunting—especially coming from New Hampshire, where the libertarian Free State Movement has made headlines. But the manifesto reimagines decentralization as a tool for building resilient, equitable communities, not just a political stance. “There's a lot of real value in that position,” she said, and I wholeheartedly agree.Our conversation touched on the risks of relying solely on government solutions—particularly at the federal level. While I've always believed in the potential for good in government, I also see firsthand the limits and bureaucracy that can get in the way. As I shared with Jen, I once had five different people at the California DMV mistakenly insist I needed a smog test for my electric vehicle. (Spoiler: I didn't.)This is exactly why Main Street Journal's work is so important. It offers grounded, accessible pathways for rebuilding economic systems from the bottom up—starting on our very own Main Streets.Decent Tuesday, Anarchy, and the Power of LanguageWe also celebrated the addition of Paul Spinrad to the Main Street Journal team. Paul, one of the early champions of the 2012 JOBS Act that enabled today's investment crowdfunding landscape, is helping to lead a new series called “Decent Tuesday.” The name itself is a clever double entendre—Decent, as in ethical, and Descent, as in decentralization.Paul's launch column tackled a bold topic: anarchy. Not the violent imagery we might typically associate with the term, but anarchy in the truest sense of community self-governance and mutual aid. It's a provocative frame, and Paul's thoughtful treatment brings it firmly into the realm of community-led development.As someone who has seen both the power and pitfalls of government, I find these discussions invaluable. They sharpen our thinking, challenge our assumptions, and remind us that even controversial ideas can have a role in shaping a better world—especially when led by voices like Paul's and platforms like Jen's.Jenny Kasson's Crowdfunding Campaign: A Case Study in ActionJen was also inspired by my recent interview with Jenny Kassan—another pillar in our space—who is leading an equity crowdfunding campaign on Small Change to finance a transformative community real estate project in Baltimore.Jenny's campaign isn't just about raising capital. It's a real-time case study in how local investing, ecosystem thinking, and community ownership come together. The project will create furnished rental spaces with flexible terms (think: part Airbnb, part long-stay apartments) and community-oriented ground floor uses. It's a blend of economic development and social impact that's both inspiring and practical.Jen pointed out how Jenny is also exploring complementary tools like time banking. As she noted, “It takes a lot more to create an ecosystem of local investing.” That insight captures the holistic nature of what we're building across our platforms: sustainable, inclusive systems that elevate everyone—not just investors or entrepreneurs.From SuperCrowdLA to SuperCrowd25In that spirit, I shared my own exciting news: the release of our new book, The Big Ideas That Lit Up SuperCrowdLA. It's a curated, refined distillation of the talks and insights from our recent SuperCrowdLA conference—organized not as a transcript, but as a harmonized narrative built with the help of AI and a whole lot of human editing.This project was a joy to create, and I learned so much in the process. You can get it now as an eBook, paperback, hardcover, or audiobook—whatever format suits your learning style.We also previewed SuperCrowd25, our fourth annual virtual summit on impact crowdfunding, streaming live across Substack and social media August 21–22. It's free to attend, but our $25 VIP package adds access to exclusive networking opportunities, a permanent LinkedIn group, bonus webinars, and speaker handouts. It's the best $25 you'll spend this year if you're building or funding impact-driven ventures.And yes—if the new book resonates, we just might release a SuperCrowd25 book, too!Subscribe, Support, and Build With UsAt the end of the day, Main Street Journal and Superpowers for Good are two sides of the same coin. Jen and I are championing different facets of the same movement: one that values people over profits, community over corporations, and action over apathy.So if you've enjoyed the ideas in this piece, I have two invitations for you:* Subscribe to both newsletters.We're each doing our best work on Substack—and getting both perspectives will give you a richer, more complete view of this growing ecosystem of changemakers.* Become a paid subscriber if you can.Your support allows us to keep doing this work—and unlocks bonus content, community, and tools that help you take your own next step, whether that's launching a campaign or building a stronger local economy.We truly are better together. Let's keep learning, building, and lifting each other up—one newsletter, one campaign, and one Main Street at a time. Get full access to Superpowers for Good at www.superpowers4good.com/subscribe

Veteran homelessness is a heartbreaking reality that still exists in communities across the country. While many of us want to help, it can be hard to know where to start, or feel like what we can give really makes a difference. In this episode, Tom McLean and I are talking about how small, everyday actions can add up to real change for veterans in need. We talk about the current crisis of veteran homelessness, what meaningful support looks like, and how anyone, military or civilian, can take action that matters. Tom serves as Senior Vice President and Military Retail Executive for Armed Forces Bank, having worked for the company for 17 years. He is responsible for sales, business development and financial outreach at military banking locations around the country. He spends time focused on Associate development, coaching, marketing, business development, financial education initiatives, supporting installation activities and community outreach. https://milmo.co/podcast/veteran-homelessness For more MILMO, follow at: MILMO.co ItsMILMO on YouTube @itsmilmo on X @itsmilmo Instagram @itsmilmo LinkedIn @itsmilmo Facebook

The episode delves into the dangers posed by seemingly insignificant habits—referred to as 'gnats,' 'paper cuts,' and 'kryptonite dust'—and how they can accumulate over time to cause major health issues like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The host emphasizes the importance of recognizing and eliminating these small, harmful habits to improve health and longevity. The episode also discusses the power of marginal gains, suggesting that small, consistent efforts can lead to significant positive changes over time. Practical tips are provided to help listeners identify and tackle their own small, detrimental habits, thereby enhancing their resilience and overall well-being.00:00 Introduction: The Biggest Threat to Your Long-Term Health00:42 Welcome and Personal Anecdotes01:17 The Hero's Journey and Health03:32 Facing Life's Challenges05:57 The Danger of Small Threats07:07 Compound Interest and Health09:04 Training for Resilience11:52 Identifying and Eliminating Small Threats15:35 The Power of Small Changes

Send us a textConnect with Dr. Bobby What is your Health Type:  find out hereProvide feedback-answer just a few questionsSix surprisingly simple actions mighty meaningfully improve your sleep, eating habits, and overall well-being—and how you can easily test them for yourself.We begin with two sleep-related tips. First, try lowering your bedroom temperature to under 70°F. In a small controlled trial, participants who slept on a cooling mattress fell asleep faster and reported better rest. The second tip: go to bed at the same time every night. A study in adolescents showed that consistent sleep timing improves how quickly you fall asleep, total sleep duration, and overall sleep quality.Then we dive into three food-focused techniques. Starting meals with protein may help you feel fuller, thanks to effects on hunger-regulating hormones like ghrelin and GLP-1, as explored in this review and systematic analysis. Next, waiting 20 minutes before going for seconds may give your brain time to register fullness, supported by a study comparing fast and slow eaters. The fourth tip? Just stand up. There's no formal data yet, but being upright might affect how full your stomach feels mechanically—something I noticed during long flights when a quick walk dramatically reduced my appetite.Finally, we explore the idea of non-food “snacks” throughout your day. Evidence shows that short bursts of movement as brief as 30 seconds to 5 minutes can improve fitness, particularly in sedentary individuals. Similarly, just five minutes of breathwork has been shown to elevate mood in randomized trials. But here's the key: try them for yourself. In Part 2 of the episode, I guide you through using an “N of 1” approach to test each strategy. Start by measuring a baseline (using wearables, a sleep journal, or a validated sleep questionnaire). Then try one of these approaches for a few days or a week. Reassess and see what happens. Takeaways:Sometimes, the most powerful health strategies aren't the hardest—they're just the ones you haven't tried yet.

Over the last few months I did some small changes to my running approach and yes, I hope they will lead to big things. We can all get stuck in the same routine after some time and then at latest is the time to make some changes.Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try out new things. Some will work for you, others won't. As with most things running: don't try to replicate another runner. What work for one, might not work for the other.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat, the show where we challenge assumptions in medicine and seek out the systems, stories, and science that truly shape healthcare. In today's episode, we're joined by Martin Bromiley: airline captain, human factors champion, and founder of the Clinical Human Factors Group.But before he became a global advocate for patient safety, Martin faced unimaginable tragedy when his wife, Elaine, died following what was supposed to be a routine surgical procedure in 2005.Martin's journey isn't just about personal loss—it's about his relentless quest to understand why a well-trained, technically proficient medical team could still fall short in a critical moment. Drawing lessons from aviation, where errors spark investigation and learning rather than resignation, Martin became a pivotal force in bringing the science of human factors—a field all about understanding how people interact with their environment, teams, and tools—into the world of healthcare.In this conversation, we explore not just the events that launched his mission, but the broader issues of humility, communication, and system design. We talk about “can't intubate, can't ventilate” scenarios, reflect on the evolution of patient safety culture, and crack open the stubborn problem of medical hierarchy. Martin's story isn't just one of systemic frustration; it's also one of hope and tangible change.So whether you're a healthcare professional, a patient, or just someone curious about how lives can be saved not simply by skill, but by safer systems—this episode is a gripping, essential listen. Plug in and prepare to have your ideas about medicine, teamwork, and learning turned upside down.Episode HighlightsHumility in Healthcare – Humility is vital for professionals to learn, grow, and stay open to feedback, ultimately improving patient safety.Communication Saves Lives – Miscommunications in critical situations can be fatal; clear, assertive dialogue and defined roles are essential in emergencies.Teamwork Over Hierarchy – Breaking down rigid medical hierarchies empowers every team member to speak up for patient safety.Design Smarter Systems – Systems must be created to make errors less likely, whether via technology, checklists, or better equipment design. Independent Case Reviews – Conducting external, impartial reviews after adverse events helps identify root causes and leads to improvements.Small Changes, Big Impact – Reducing steps in processes, standardizing equipment, or tweaking procedures can greatly decrease error risks.Continuous Improvement Mindset – Perfection isn't possible, but aiming to get a little better every day is the key to safer healthcare for all.Episode Timestamps 6:15 — Turning Point: Embracing Human Factors 7:19 — "Science Overlooked in Healthcare" 11:01 — Intensive Care Transfer Decision 14:51 — Receptionist Sparks Important Meeting 18:11 — Evolution of Case Review Processes 22:27 — "Human Factors in Healthcare Initiative" 25:02 — Origin of Aviation Safety Protocols 28:28 — Enhancing Safety in Drug Handling 30:30 — Medication Errors and Design Flaws 33:49 — Promoting Human Factors in Healthcare 38:04 — Team Leadership in Medical Procedures 42:51 — Healthcare Pressures and Consequences 44:47 — "Concerns Over Arrogant Healthcare Professionals" 50:16 — Striving for Continuous Improvement in Healthcare 52:36 — Progress in Healthcare Culture ShiftDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Scoliosis impacts far more people than we realize. Dr. Tony Nalda explains the different sources of scoliosis that impact both children and adults. The population of people with scoliosis increases as age increases, that means many of us will be facing scoliosis in the future if not already living with it.Dr. Nalda explains the options we have to stop the curvature from increasing and even reducing the degree of the curve. We also discuss the traditional diagnosis and treatment options most doctors are operating under and why these options need to change to help prevent surgery. This is important because one small change could be significant in our level of pain we experience but not necessarily produce a degree of curve for traditional treatment. Dr. Tony Nalda is the leader of the Scoliosis Reduction Center®. In addition to being a chiropractor, Dr. Nalda holds an Intensive Care Certification from CLEAR Institute, a leading scoliosis educational and certification center. He was also one of the very first doctors to receive World Masters Certification from ISICO, a certification that specializes in the conservative treatment and management of scoliosis. Dr. Nalda also holds certifications with SEAS (Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis Accreditation Program), Gomez Orthodics, Chiropractic Biophysics, ScoliBrace, A Corrective 3D Scoliosis Bracing System, DMX (Digital Motion Xray), and Scolibalance® certification from ScoliCare®.Learn more at www.scoliosisreductioncenter.com and follow on Facebook @ScoliosisReductionCenter and YouTube @ScoliosisReductionCenter.

I'm diving into something that punched me right in the soul—a personal story that reminded me just how powerful words really are. I'm talking about those seemingly small sentences that land like a ton of bricks and totally rewire how you see yourself. I share how one comment cracked me wide open and made me rethink how I was showing up in my own journey. And trust me, if you've ever let one person's words hijack your confidence or light a fire under your butt, you'll feel this one. It's raw, real, and honestly? Kinda hilarious in hindsight. From there, we take a turn into the trenches—the place where I see so many of my clients get stuck. You know the moment: you're doing all the things, chasing the dream, and then suddenly… BAM. Wall. Hit. Hard. And what follows is the quiet but sneaky shift from growth to fear. Instead of acting from expansion and possibility, we start reacting from contraction and protection. And who's the drama queen behind all of this? Our ego. I'm unpacking the messy, sneaky ways ego shows up and how it convinces us that playing small is safe. Spoiler alert: it's not. It's just keeping us stuck in a loop of second-guessing and self-sabotage. But babe, don't worry—this episode isn't just a roast of your inner saboteur. I'm also calling on your Highest Self—the part of you that knows you were made for more. The version of you that's here to grow, lead, and find your greatness. I'll guide you back to that voice, that energy, that perspective that says, “I'm ready to rise.” What you'll hear in this episode: [1:10] A Personal Anecdote: The Power of Words [1:45] Client Struggles: Hitting a Wall [3:45 ]The Shift from Growth to Fear [5:55] Ego vs. Growth: The Internal Battle [9:35] Ego Driven Perspectives [10:09] The Perspective of Your Highest Self that Desires Growth Related Episodes: Embrace These 10 Small Changes to Build a Better You Uncomplicate Your Success Mindset Habits To Leave Behind This Year Connect with Paige on Instagram @paigelawrencecoaching
