Monday Morning Madhouse:Tox Talk 5 Very in depth discussion about sexuality being a factor while ttrying to talk someone but, not the way you'd think. For example: (A straight girl goes to a bar with her guy friend who happens to be gay. She wants to talk to a striaght guy at the bar but her gay friend is also interested in the same person. But the guy the girl is interested in is straight and wouldn't give her gay friend a chance anyway. Should she feel bad for her friend and not talk to the guyor still try and talk to the guy?) Very good editon of Tox Talk.Monday Madhouse - April 28, 2025

Nourishing Introverts: Breaking the Cycle of Emotional Eating After Socializing | Ep #645 | The JoLynn Braley Show Original copyrighted content published February 27, 2025 at https://fearlessfatloss.com/podcast/nourishing-introverts-breaking-the-cycle-of-emotional-eating-after-socializing

Back in the days when mega clubs like Exit and Tunnel ruled New York City's nightlife, I was just a college student trying to navigate the vibrant but costly world of music, art, and community. Those experiences taught me the power of networking, a skill that Bek Lover, our remarkable guest for this episode, has honed to perfection. Bek's journey from a finance career to podcasting stardom wasn't easy, but it was fueled by a deep appreciation for the resilience instilled in him as a first-generation Albanian American. Join us as Bek recounts how his family's resilience against oppressive regimes shaped his perspective on freedom and opportunity in America.   Our conversation with Bek takes a reflective detour into the realm of real estate and the need to prioritize local issues over international aid. We touch on the political climate in places like California and how emotional connections play a crucial role in both politics and sales. Bek shares invaluable insights on real estate investing, emphasizing strategies that avoid emotional attachment to property prices. Alongside, we explore the shifting dynamics of nightlife, where younger generations are redefining social habits by moving away from traditional alcohol-centric experiences.   As we continue, Bek opens up about his personal growth, focusing on the importance of leveraging networks for success and finding courage amidst fear. By turning personal pain into creative power, Bek's podcast has resonated with millions, inspiring stories of resilience and transformation. From the challenges of breaking away from unhealthy habits to the triumph of nurturing genuine connections, this episode is a heartfelt testament to embracing authentic paths. Bek's message is clear: take risks, embrace challenges, and discover fulfillment by aligning life with true values and passions.   CHAPTERS    (00:00) - Overcoming Adversity and Building Networks (08:56) - Real Estate Investing and Market Trends (17:06) - Diving Into New York Nightlife (26:23) - Leveraging Networks for Success (31:23) - The Future of Socializing and Nightlife" (34:27) - Life Lessons and Personal Growth (44:55) - Journey to Inspire and Overcome (54:51) - Finding Courage and Embracing Purpose

Change is inevitable in the workplace, but how it's managed can make or break your organization's culture. In this episode, we unpack the concept of “socializing change”—an approach that transforms uncertainty into opportunity by putting people at the center of the process. Here's what we cover: • The impact of rapid technological and societal changes on workplace dynamics. • Why engaging employees early in the change process fosters trust and collaboration. • Lessons from real-world examples: a salary shift that failed and a digital transformation that created resistance. • Actionable strategies for leaders, including transparent communication, empathy-driven problem-solving, and creative storytelling. We also spotlight Humans Are Underrated by Geoff Colvin, exploring the human traits—empathy, collaborative creativity, and storytelling—that are essential for shaping a positive workplace culture during times of change. Whether you're a leader navigating transformation or someone passionate about workplace culture, this episode is packed with insights to help you lead with purpose and build a stronger, more connected team.
