There's a moment in life when something deep inside whispers, I want to be better. Not for appearances. Not for approval. But in a way that feels truer, fuller, and more you. In this episode, I explore the quiet, unshaped longing that calls us to grow, and how real change isn't a dramatic leap, but a series of small, intentional steps taken over time. We'll talk about living in alignment with your values, choosing compassion over judgment, and embracing the lifelong process of becoming a better version of yourself, on your terms. If you've ever felt the pull to grow but didn't know where to start, this conversation is your invitation to take the next small, true step.

The show opens with a detailed breakdown of Apple's record-setting Q3 2025 earnings of $94 billion, highlighting growth in iPhone, Mac, and Services, while noting declines in iPad and Wearables. The panel analyzes Tim Cook's commentary, particularly around Apple's increasing investment in AI and hints toward potential acquisitions in the space. The discussion shifts to the Vision Pro, with reflections on Apple's strategy, pricing challenges, and comparisons with competitors like Meta and Xiaomi. Panelists agree that the Vision Pro is still a high-end, early-stage device, but are optimistic about future consumer-focused versions. Software updates take center stage as the team reviews iOS 18.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6, and watchOS 11.6—all featuring important security and bug fixes. The beta version of macOS Tahoe earns praise for its customizable Control Center, a long-requested feature. AppleCare One, Apple's new bundled protection plan, is explored in depth, especially its integration with the iPhone Upgrade Program and its cost-saving potential. The team discusses an online calculator that helps users determine if switching from AppleCare+ makes financial sense. One hot topic is iOS 26's new spam text filtering, which has stirred controversy among political fundraising groups. The panel weighs in enthusiastically in favor of giving users better control over unwanted messages. Rounding out the episode are updates on AirTag integration with 30+ airlines, enabling real-time luggage tracking, and news that JPMorgan may take over the Apple Card from Goldman Sachs.

In today's episode, Gina responds to a listener question about experiencing high stress situations and why some of the tried and true recommendations she hears about on the podcast don't seem to be working for her. Specifically, she asks about the RAIN technique for dealing with strong emotions and inner experiences. The technique is discussed and advice offered on how to make adjustments to find peace and calm even during highly challenging, stressful circumstance.Please visit our Sponsor Page to find all the links and codes for our awesome sponsors!https://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com/sponsors/ Thank you for supporting The Anxiety Coaches Podcast.

Today's inquiry comes from Kay, who is grappling with anxiety following a series of significant health scares. Through her story, we explore the struggles of chronic stress and the challenge of returning to a state of calm. As we delve into her situation, it becomes clear that understanding and practicing self-compassion is crucial in this journey back to emotional balance.I emphasize the importance of the RAIN technique that Kay mentions, which serves as an effective tool for navigating difficult emotions. I break down the four steps of RAIN: Recognize, Allow, Investigate, and Nurture. This method encourages a mindful approach to one's feelings, transforming reactivity into self-acceptance and compassion. Recognizing emotions, allowing them to exist without judgment, gently investigating their origins, and nurturing oneself through comforting practices can foster a sense of peace during moments of anxiety.Drawing from Kay's experiences, I highlight the necessity of patience as one recovers from a period of high stress. I remind listeners that healing is not linear and that taking small, steady steps can significantly impact their journey. Breathwork, for example, can be a foundational practice. I explain how techniques like belly breathing and conscious exhalation cultivate safety in the nervous system, allowing individuals to break the cycle of tension and anxiety.#AnxietyRelief #ChronicStress #NervousSystemHealing #EmotionalRegulation #RAINTechnique #SelfCompassion #MindfulnessPractice #BodyBasedHealing #MentalWellness #StressReduction #VagusNerve #GroundingTechniques #PresentMoment #SelfCareJourney #InnerPeace #EmotionalWellbeing #AnxietyHelp #CalmYourMind #Breathwork #Visualization #PodcastTips #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #HealthAnxiety #OvercomingAnxiety #DailyHabits #FeelYourFeet #HummingForCalm #Decompress #HealYourBody #BeKindToYourself #ResilienceBuilding #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode #163 : Traveling to London with a mix of excitement and nerves can be as daunting as it is exhilarating. I remember discussing this with my eyelash queen, Marie, while she carefully crafted my lashes. Her journey to pursue a master's degree was a reminder that taking one small step leads to big changes. This episode is about those small, consistent actions that build momentum in life, whether it's planning an adventure to Wimbledon with my husband, Brian, or deciding to leave the kids behind for a much-needed escape. Amidst global concerns and travel alerts, we're choosing to embrace the thrill of new experiences. Marie's story is a testament to the power of breaking out of comfort zones. We often get trapped in routines, dreaming of something more but hesitating to act. It's not about the flashy success stories; it's about the everyday actions that propel us forward. I share how relentless consistency, like making that one phone call or sending that email, can be transformative. The episode underscores the idea that the everyday grit, not the glamorous moments, paves the path to achieving dreams. The mundane, unglamorous tasks are where progress happens. I recount setting up my studio's internet, a task I'd rather avoid, as an example of how constant motion leads to overall progress. Juggling responsibilities is part of the journey, and having children only heightens the need for efficiency. From transitioning out of a long finance career to building a media presence, I've learned the importance of keeping promises to oneself. Whether you're seeking personal growth or a career shift, it's about owning your journey, one determined step at a time. Passion and hard work can truly transform your life, and I hope this episode encourages you to believe that you can achieve your dreams with perseverance.

Change doesn't always come with a breakthrough—it often begins with a single small step taken with intention. Brianna Wiest shares her wisdom on how micro shifts, emotional awareness, and self-compassion can transform not only your habits but your entire life. With clarity and heart, she explores the power of slowing down, embracing seasons of transition, and building emotional architecture that supports lasting growth. Her perspective reminds us that the life we're waiting for is already unfolding—one small, consistent choice at a time. Key Takeaways: Small, intentional actions create momentum for long-term transformation without overwhelming your nervous system. Emotional architecture helps you process feelings as teachers, not obstacles. Self-sabotage often masks a deeper need for safety or care—identifying those needs can break the cycle. Consistent routines and community connections are essential to staying grounded during life's in-between seasons. Trusting your journey means surrendering to the present and aligning with your own pace of growth.   About Brianna Wiest: Brianna is the bestselling author of the books 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think, The Mountain Is You, The Pivot Year, and more. Her books have sold millions of copies, regularly appear on global bestseller lists, and are currently being translated into 40+ languages.

In this episode, we look at the real story behind transformation in data and AI, and why the classic big bang approach often fails to deliver lasting impact. Jason explores when large-scale transformation programmes do make sense, like when you're starting from a fundamentally broken place, or when disruption is the goal. But he also digs into the messy reality of what usually happens: slow delivery, rigid plans, lost trust, and a disconnect between activity and real outcomes. He then makes the case for iterative change. A more human, responsive, and sustainable way to build meaningful transformation over time. With real-world examples and sharp reflections, Jason shares how small, focused steps can create big shifts, and how to blend bold vision with practical delivery. This episode is full of insight for business and data leaders navigating change, delivering transformation, or just trying to make something actually stick. **********    Cynozure is a leading data, analytics and AI company that helps organisations to reach their data potential.

Our Belgian connection runs deep, built on shared moments, mutual admiration, and a steady stream of talent that never seems to dry up. The latest to surface is Ben Kamal: Brussels-based DJ, promoter, and soon-to-be label boss. In recent years, Ben has been a staple in clubs like C12, Fuse, and Funke, as well as festivals like Paradise City and Horst. He's carved out a sound that's both precise and personal, equal parts deep, minimal, and melancholic. As a resident of Lola Haro's Small Steps series and curator of nights at bis.club, he's been steadily shaping a mood, a narrative, a space. And with the first release on his new label ov guidance about to drop, featuring a.brehme and signall kommt (aka z@p), that space is about to get even more defined. Listening to the mix Ben made for us feels like watching dusk fold into night in slow motion. The arc is patient, but the details are razor-sharp: fluttering hats, muted basslines, strange shadows between the kick and the silence. There's movement, but it's not linear. It loops, it lingers, it pulls you inward. It's not about big moments, it's about micro-decisions that add up to something more enduring. Call it dusk-lake energy. Call it perfect for the other side. https://soundcloud.com/benkamal https://www.instagram.com/benkamal__/ Write up by: @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media: https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayed https://linktr.ee/delayed https://www.delayed.nyc https://www.facebook.com/itsdelayed https://www.instagram.com/_____delayed https://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

Learning to Value Difference | Small Steps You Can Take to Celebrate Your Sense of IndividualityInner alignment and being comfortable with who you are, is uncommon. Many people have anxiety at the thought of someone unmasking them, gripped by their own sense of imposter syndrome. Carefully curating the versions of ourselves that we share in public, while allowing shame to fester around the parts of ourselves we keep hidden?Hiding under a blanket of sameness and discounting what makes us unique, specifically our non-shared experiences.Finding alignment with your individuality also coincides with being at peace with your journey, and honouring your truth.Do you have any questions?

In November 2020 The Merriman Financial Education Foundation released “We're Talking Millions!  12 Simple Ways to Supercharge Your Retirement.”  The purpose of the book was to focus on a series of very simple steps any investor might take to improve their financial future.  "Understanding how to invest wisely for your future can be daunting. Many people never get started for fear of making mistakes. Others make choices based on hearsay and hope, sold on hype or risk aversion. In "We're Talking Millions!" you will learn why and how to make a handful of smart choices that can turn modest regular savings into a secure future. You'll discover "12 Small Steps with Big Payoffs," each of which can add $1 million or more to your retirement nest egg if you start in your 20s or 30s. These steps are well known.”The book has had a huge impact on an untold number of readers.  The numbers are unknown because the Foundation offer the book free as a pdf, as well as a free link to the audio version  (LINK) that was read by Truth Teller Don McDonald.While the book has had almost 400 online Amazon reviews (averaging 4 1/2 stars), the approximately 100 written reviews have over 95% 5 star ratings.  Here is one from a young student (age 19 at the time) who is now in medical school!  5.0 out of 5 stars Life-changing book for young people interested in investingReviewed in the United States on December 17, 2020Format: Paperback Verified Purchase"We're Talking Millions" was a life-changing book. I am a 19 year-old college student who was directed toward Mr. Merriman's book as a great resource for first time investors. His book was the perfect resource for someone with little to no prior knowledge about investing.It starts by outlining the twelve steps to boost a retirement fund, listing tips and tricks along the way. One of the most helpful parts for me was that all of the investment lingo was clearly defined and explained, and I could get a very clear sense as to how each of these small steps fits into the overall puzzle. The book then outlines how to get started: explaining the "Two Funds for Life" investment plan, what investment companies are best to use, and suggesting specific investment funds.I cannot recommend this book enough!! I feel confident about my investment plan after reading this book, and I plan to share it with as many of my peers as possible. I have already given it to my sister and best friend. If you are looking for information about investing and don't have the energy to read a long, dense investing book, then "We're Talking Millions" is the book for you! It is interesting, short, and extremely informative, and I hope that it helps you as much as it helped me.Now Paul has recorded this podcast and video to discuss the 12 steps.  The video was produced as part of a special offering to introduce Western Washington University alumni to The Merriman Financial Literacy Program that is working to educate all WWU students on the personal finance topics that will be an important part of their future.Our hope is you will pass along these links to others in your life who might benefit from this free educational information.Is there someone in your life you think could benefit from the discussion of these 12 huge decisions? Here are several ways to access this information:  The following link is to a free pdf of our book, "We're Talking Millions! 12 Simple Ways to Supercharge Your Retirement.”   A second and third link takes you  to a 2 hour video  and podcast on the 12 million dollar decisions.  And finally a very short (12 minute) podcast or video review of the 12 decisions.

Each season of the Paper Talk Podcast holds a special place in our hearts, but Season 7 felt like a turning point. It reminded us that growth doesn't have to be loud. It can be slow and quiet, a series of steady, intentional steps that shift us in ways we don't always notice right away. And it reminded us that when we share our goals with others (and when we say them out loud) something begins to shift. As we close out this season, we want to invite you to pause with us. Pour a cup of tea, take a breath, and ask yourself: What's your goal this summer? Small Steps, Big Changes So many of us wait for big breakthroughs, grand pivots, or clear signs. But the truth is, powerful change often begins with something small: a conversation, a tiny decision, a moment of clarity. “These little steps that you're deciding right now, they're gonna be big. You might not see it right now, but you will.” - Quynh We saw it firsthand in our Mastermind community. Members taught their first workshops, launched shows, shifted their pricing models to better support global audiences, and leaned into the kind of growth that doesn't always get a headline, but transforms everything behind the scenes. Those moments matter. And they're proof that the steps you're taking today are already moving you forward even if their full shape hasn't yet revealed itself. Why We Believe in Accountability One theme ran strong through Season 7: accountability. When we share our goals out loud, we give them shape. We allow others to witness our commitment and invite support when things get messy. That's why the Mastermind has become such a cornerstone of our community. It's a container where creative entrepreneurs can declare what they want to build and know that someone will lovingly check in and cheer them forward. For Jessie, accountability looked like getting clearer on her messaging and splitting her Instagram into two accounts, one for her art, one for her teaching. It also meant tackling ads and marketing systems she'd once avoided. “Setting goals is incredibly important. That's why the Mastermind is so good. We force you to set goals and tell us what happened to them.” - Jessie For Sara, it was finally making time to overhaul her website, even though it wasn't urgent or income-generating. The support of the group gave her the nudge to move from someday to now. The Magic of Community This season also reminded us how essential community is, especially for creatives navigating uncertain terrain. For Sara, seeing Mastermind members experience their first shows and workshops was deeply moving. For Quynh, the quiet bravery of people showing up, sharing openly, and supporting one another through sticky, uncomfortable growth stood out. We've felt it, too. This community has shaped who we are, not just as artists and educators, but as humans who continue to learn from each other's vulnerability, courage, and questions. Learning as Teachers Teaching has a way of making us better learners. Quynh shared how each workshop she leads becomes richer as she refines, adjusts, and responds to feedback. Sara reflected on how much she learns from our Mastermind group even though she's one of the facilitators. Goals in Progress So what are our summer goals? Quynh plans to refine her workshops and teach four more before the year's end. She's excited about experimenting with new materials and deepening the learning experience. Sara's goal is to overhaul her website so it better reflects who she is today, not who she was ten years ago. Jessie is focused on more intentional marketing, tuning her messaging, exploring ads, and speaking more directly to both her students and collectors. These aren't goals rooted in fear or scarcity. They're grounded in curiosity and care. And they reflect our belief that when we show up for ourselves, we show up more fully for those we serve. What's Next for Paper Talk: Season 8 As we plan for Season 8, we're dreaming about deeper conversations, about pricing, sustainability, creative mindset, and everything in between. We'll continue to share what's working in our businesses, what isn't, and what we're still figuring out. And we want to hear from you! “We are giving you permission. Please let us know what you want to hear from us and how we can help you grow as a business, as an artist, as a person.” - Quynh Your voice shapes this podcast.

What's Next for Our Mastermind: A NEW Cohort Starting in the Fall We are also starting a NEW six-month Mastermind experience in September 2025 with new and existing Mastermind members will allow deeper growth and connection.

In this episode, Joi Cuartero Austin is joined once again by Erik Reader for a lively and insightful conversation around the concept of Lighter, Quicker, Cheaper (LQC) — a placemaking approach that emphasizes small-scale, low-cost, and fast-to-implement strategies for revitalizing public spaces and neighborhood districts. Originally popularized by the nonprofit Project for Public Spaces in the early 2000s, LQC continues to shape how communities reimagine their built environments — even today. We dig into real-world examples, lessons learned, and how communities are using this flexible framework to create a stronger sense of place, community, ownership, and vitality. Topics Covered: What “Lighter, Quicker, Cheaper” means and where it came from How cities like Dallas, Richmond, Chicago, and Peoria are embracing DIY placemaking Examples of LQC success: from Better Block projects to guerrilla wayfinding Creative community engagement: pop-up shops, vacant lot activations, and DIY downtowns The power of “just trying something” and giving communities permission to act Metrics and outcomes: How small tests can lead to permanent change How LQC invites broader participation and fosters local pride What we'd personally love to try next in our own communities! Mentioned Projects and Ideas: Better Block Dallas – transforming a corridor with temporary interventions Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood – intersection redesign with chalk paint and bollards Walk Raleigh – unsanctioned wayfinding signs showing walk times to local spots Peoria “Ideas to Action” – pop-up engagement leading to funded community-led projects Parklets and outdoor seating – how losing a few parking spots can spark placemaking Takeaways: You don't need a million-dollar budget to make a meaningful impact. LQC gives communities permission to test ideas and rethink how they use space. Starting small can unlock new energy, increase public trust, and attract long-term investment. These quick wins can be a gateway to bigger, bolder revitalization strategies.

In the rapidly accelerating world of Artificial Intelligence, the pace of innovation can feel overwhelming. From groundbreaking advancements to the ongoing debate about governance and ethical implications, AI is not just a tool; it's a transformative force. As we race towards super intelligence and navigate increasingly sophisticated models, how do we ensure that human values remain at the core of this technological revolution? How do we, especially in the trust-based nonprofit sector, lead with intentionality and ensure AI serves humanity rather than superseding it?   In this episode, Nathan and Scott dive into the relentless evolution of AI, highlighting Meta's staggering $15 billion investment in the race for super intelligence and the critical absence of robust regulation. They reflect on the essential shift from viewing AI adoption as a finite "destination" to embracing it as an ongoing "journey." Nathan shares insights on how AI amplifies human capabilities, particularly for those who are "marginally" good at certain skills, advocating for finding your "why" and offloading tasks AI can do better. Scott discusses his recent AI governance certification, underscoring the complexities and lack of "meat on the bone" in US regulations compared to the EU AI Act. The conversation also explores the concept of AI agents, offering practical tips for leveraging them, even for those with no coding experience. They conclude with a powerful reminder: AI is a mirror reflecting our values, and the nonprofit sector has a vital role in shaping its ethical future.   HIGHLIGHTS  [01:15] AI Transformation: A Journey, Not a Destination [03.00] If AI Can Do It Better: Finding Your Human "Why"   [04:05] AI Outperforming Human Capabilities   [05:00] Meta's $15 Billion Investment in Super Intelligence  [07:16] The Manipulative Nature of AI and the "Arms Race" for Super Intelligence   [09:27] The Importance and Challenges of AI Governance and Regulation   [14:50] AI as a Compass, Not a Silver Bullet   [16:39] Beware the AI Finish Line Illusion   [18:12] Small Steps, Sustained Momentum: The "Baby Steps" Approach to AI   [26:48] Tip of the Week: The Rise of AI Agents and Practical Use Cases  [32.24] The Power of Curiosity in AI Exploration   RESOURCES  Relay.app: relay.app   Zapier: zapier.com   Make.com: make.com   N.io: n.io   Connect with Nathan and Scott: LinkedIn (Nathan): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/nathanchappell/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ LinkedIn (Scott): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/scott-rosenkrans⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fundraising.ai/⁠

In this episode of RevOps Champions, Brendon Dennewill is joined by Mike Kaput, Chief Content Officer at Marketing AI Institute and strategic leader at SmarterX, to talk about breaking down the real-world barriers to AI adoption—and how teams can take small, practical steps that drive big results.Mike shares the evolution of the Marketing AI Institute, which launched in 2016 to help marketers build AI literacy. Today, through SmarterX, that mission has expanded to support cross-functional teams—marketing, sales, HR, legal, and beyond—in adopting AI in a way that's grounded in strategy and education.Together, Brendon and Mike explore what often holds organizations back. While many invest in tools, they skip the critical first step: ensuring their people understand AI and how it can support their work. Mike warns against chasing the “next big thing” without a clear plan and instead recommends starting with what you have—documenting workflows, identifying use cases, and building a culture of experimentation.They also highlight how RevOps plays a vital role in enabling AI readiness—from clean, connected data to structured processes. Legal, IT, and change management aren't just back-end concerns—they're foundational to scaling AI responsibly.Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or looking to optimize your approach, this episode offers actionable takeaways. The message is simple but powerful: AI doesn't require a massive overhaul to make an impact. Start small. Stay consistent. And build toward smarter, more scalable operations—one step at a time.Find more at revopschampions.com

In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations," host Jenny Dempsey gets real about the emotional rollercoaster of juggling her career and furniture-flipping side hustle. She spills on burnout, imposter syndrome, and the chaos of pricing her art (“Am I worth it?!”). Jenny shares her messy, vulnerable moments—singing to her furniture, doubting herself, and still showing up. She reminds us that spirals aren't failures, but part of the process, and that confidence is more like a flickering patio light than a spotlight. It's raw, relatable, and a little unhinged—in the best way. Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!

It's summer time here and time for a little R and R, rest and relaxation, maybe even time away. You might be feeling like you need some time away from whatever stress you've been experiencing. I hope it isn't your harp playing that's been causing the stress, but even playing and practicing the harp can cause frustration and burnout. If you're feeling like you need a break from your harp playing, I'm here to help and to make sure you take that break in a way that will bring you more confidence and more joy in your harp playing again. Actually, at the time you are listening to this, I am on vacation with my husband. We are in Bermuda, which is one of our favorite places to vacation. We went there for our honeymoon and loved it so much that we planned to go back every five years. We've missed a couple of those five year milestones; COVID was one of the reasons, of course. But this year, we're going back and I can't wait. Often people will ask me if I take a harp when I'm on vacation, and I rarely do. If it's an extended trip, or I have a special project or performance coming up, then I will take one, but I firmly believe that no matter how much we love the harp, it's beneficial to take some time off. Like the old Coca-Cola slogan, “it's the pause that refreshes.” It's good for us physically to relieve our fingers of the stress of practice. It's even better for our perspective. It forces us to pick up our heads, let go of the busyness of practice, and reconnect with the harp and with music. Aside from having to coax slightly sluggish fingers back to work after we get back, there are no negatives to taking a break. I realize we have podcast listeners all over the world, and if you're living in the southern hemisphere, you're starting a winter season, not a summer one. But you don't have to wait for summer to try out this framework. It can help keep you balanced all winter long!

We talk a lot in this community about showing up well for the people we love and the purpose we're called to - but what happens when our bodies are too tired, inflamed, or out of balance to keep up?In this episode, I'm joined by certified health and lifestyle coach Alane Pearce, who's passionate about helping women feel better in their bodies without shame, restriction, or burnout. Drawing from her own powerful journey through Hashimoto's, infertility, and the exhausting cycle of chronic dieting, Alane shares how she traded the all-or-nothing health mindset for a more holistic, sustainable approach, and how you can, too!We explore what might be sabotaging your metabolism (even if you think you're eating healthy), how to ditch diet culture without ditching your health, and why it's time to stop ignoring the physical side of wellness. Alane walks us through the “six spinning plates” method and offers simple, practical steps you can start today to support your body in a way that feels doable and life-giving.This conversation is a gentle but empowering reminder that you don't need to overhaul your whole life to see real change - just take one small step at a time.Episode HighlightsTrue health is about nourishing your body, not just focusing on weight loss, which is often a symptom of deeper issues.The importance of self-care routines, including adequate sleep, movement, and balanced nutrition to sustain overall well-beingThe concept of 'spinning plates' for health: nutrition, sleep, stress management, hydration, supplements, and movement for a holistic approachWe learn that 93% of the U.S. population experiences some form of blood sugar dysregulation, often driven by dieting mentalities and processed foods.Alane encourages listeners to stop living in deprivation and instead focus on what their bodies truly need to thrive and function well.Practical steps like meal planning and small movement 'snacks' throughout the day to integrate healthy habits seamlessly into busy livesResources MentionedFree download: Four Simple Strategies for Better Health Worthy: How to Believe You Are Enough and Transform Your Life by Jamie Kern LimaRelated Episodes You Might Also LikeEP 13 - The Value of Intentional Rhythms with Michelle J.

Free Brain Dump Guide: https://simplyconvivial.com/braindump | Perfectionism promises peace—but only delivers paralysis. So what happens when we let go of perfection and trust God with the story He's writing?In this episode of the Simplified Organization Podcast, I talk with Annie Rajala, a faithful mom of seven (four at home and three in glory), about how God has used hard seasons—grief, sickness, NICU stays, moving, and more—to shape her heart and home. We discuss how letting go of perfection, taking just five minutes, and trusting the Lord's timing can create momentum, peace, and gratitude in homemaking.Annie's journey is a beautiful reminder: the little things—the five minutes, the small goals, the messy journals—are often where God grows our joy the most.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the health advice out there, you're not alone. In this episode, I'm joined by functional nutritionist, author, and educator Margaret Floyd Barry, who shares a grounded, encouraging path for moving from information overload to lasting results. She wrote two wonderful books to share health information in an easily understandable format. Her first book, Eat Naked, dispels misconceptions about nutrition and empowers readers to adopt a whole-foods approach to eating. A year later, she followed up with a cookbook, The Naked Foods Cookbook, which she co-authored with her husband, Chef James Barry, to make healthy, delicious cooking accessible to even the most culinary-challenged. Today, Margaret explains how trusting your instincts, taking small doable steps, and finding the proper support can transform your journey, especially when it comes to gut health and bone strength. We also discuss the importance of celebrating progress, avoiding perfectionism, and fostering an environment that supports success. Whether you're just starting out or trying to get back on track, this conversation serves as a reminder that no action is too small, and momentum starts with one step. You'll leave feeling hopeful, empowered, and ready to move forward in a way that truly works for you.   “Here's the reality: The maybe slightly less than perfect thing that you will actually do is way better than the perfect solution that you won't." ~ Margaret Floyd Barry, FNTP, MRWP   In this episode: - [02:43] - The shocking amount of daily information we consume - [06:01] - How to know what step is right for you - [08:10] - The truth about “perfect” wellness plans - [12:51] - What to do when you fall off track - [15:02] - How to turn a setback into progress - [17:52] - The power of community and environment for success - [24:32] - When it's time to work with a health practitioner - [26:16] - Details about Margaret's training program - [28:36] - What the human body is capable of doing - [32:57] - The secret to making wellness habits stick - [36:08] - Why the gut is the key to your healing  - [38:18] - Margaret's free event to help you go deeper   Resources mentioned - Clinical Success Showcase (Free) June 2nd- June 5th https://restorativewellnesssolutions.ontraport.com/t?orid=30372&opid=32 - Find a Restorative Wellness Practitioner - https://restorativewellnesssolutions.com/find-a-practitioner/ - Margaret Floyd Barry, FNTP Master RWP CGP websites - www.restorativewellnesssolutions.com and www.margaretfloydbarry.com - Osteoporosis Exercises to Strengthen Your Bones and Prevent Fractures (free) - http://tinyurl.com/osteoporosisexercises    More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

Time is limited, but it's also, there's lots of it. So you've got room to make mistakes. Have you ever wondered what people do to get successful? What makes the difference? Today's guest, Kate McGuire, will share her journey, and she talks about those moments in life that you think are like the success moments. The ones where you think “I've made it!” For her, it was her first $100,000 month. What do you do with milestones like that? What are the steps you're supposed to take first? Kate is a dynamic entrepreneur, devoted mother, and a passionate advocate for health and personal growth. Kate's journey is fueled by her desire for independence, which shapes her strategic approach to business and life. In her 20s, Kate was struggling to learn what she was going to do with her life. It caused her anxiety and stress; she went to her doctor. She wasn't interested in taking prescriptions, and ended up seeing a naturopath. It was life changing. “I was exposed to the importance of my health. And the choices I had to make to actually get your head straight, get your head right, right? And I didn't need pharmaceuticals. And I was really struck with how easy it was to go down that path,” says Kate. After having such a positive experience, she wanted the world to know there were other options and that you could be the biggest advocate for your own health. “It is not easy to look after yourself. It does mean researching. It does mean talking to people. It does mean shutting out the circle of family and friends that you have that have their opinions about the way you should be managed,” says Kate. Her passion for health and seeing her father's role model entrepreneurship pushed her into the industry. “It does require you having some guts and having some faith in yourself,” says Kate. “It's okay if you fail, it's okay. Like your life is so long and when you're young, you feel like what's happening in that moment is like so important and so immediate.” If we don't feel safe, it's really hard to show up in your business as your best self, get excited about marketing, and do all the things. Some business owners get to a certain level and then they pull back because they worked so hard to get there. Steady sales. Income levels. They did it. But it means they don't try anything new. They're afraid of making mistakes, so they don't take any more chances. And the biggest lessons can bring the most hurt. It can be hard to overcome because there is always someone to compare yourself to. “Sometimes entrepreneurs are encouraged to get around other entrepreneurs who are doing much bigger and better things than them. And I think you need to tread lightly with that. depending on your personality. Because for me, that was actually a little bit detrimental,” says Kate. Some people can go all in as a CEO, but others might need to divide their time and avoid burnout. Putting in the internal work so that you can arrive at your business already fully yourself is important. Make what you're creating through the business an extension of creativity and joy – and that will bring money. When Kate started working in the health industry, she was a sales rep for Omega-3 fish oil. She worked on commission. Her method was handshake by handshake, brick by brick, and door by door. She encountered so many nos before she'd get a yes. But then she started to get momentum. For her, it was hard work and belief in herself that paid off. There was no magic answer for her success. “You can end up in the job that you hate and it's safe, or you can take a chance on yourself and, you know, make mistakes and get in a bit of trouble,” says Kate. “But the exhilaration and the enjoyment and the things you'll learn and the people you talk to, I really do believe it's worth it.” Free gift: Benecin immune supplement: https://bit.ly/411buZW (Use 20% off code GOG20) Other GoG episodes you might want to check out: Feel Like You're Pushing Water Uphill?
