In today's Dear DSO episode, I read a letter from a guy I'll call John. He's reached the end of his rope. His wife drinks heavily, refuses therapy, hasn't been intimate with him in years, and contributes nothing to the family or household. Meanwhile, John's doing it all — cooking, cleaning, parenting, working full-time — and he's still trying to “make it work.”If you've ever found yourself trapped in a relationship like this, wondering what's wrong with you for staying… this one's going to hit home. I talk about why so many men hang on to something that's clearly dead, the psychological trap that keeps them stuck, and why the real work isn't about fixing her — it's about fixing yourself.I also share what I told John privately about the importance of therapy, male friendships, and finding a group of men who will call you out and help you rebuild your life.

From marching snare in Wisconsin to playing The Producers on Broadway, his story is about hard work, timing, and versatility. In this conversation, Larry talks about his early days growing up in the Midwest, his years in drum corps, the Nashville country scene, and how he built a lasting career in New York City's theater world.Larry's been behind the drum kit for shows like The Producers, Jekyll and Hyde, Les Misérables, Wicked, and The Full Monty. He's also a respected educator and clinician whose experience bridges jazz, pop, and orchestral playing.This episode breaks down how he made the jump from the road to Broadway, what it takes to earn a chair, and why learning from others is one of the smartest moves a drummer can make.Key Moments and Topics Covered00:03 – Early Years in the MidwestLarry talks about growing up in Chicago, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. He shares how he started on trombone before switching to drums and getting his first kit — a red Slingerland jazz set from the 1960s.00:05 – Marching Band and Drum CorpsHe describes how marching band led him to drum corps, playing snare with the Blue Stars. Those years shaped his reading, discipline, and love of ensemble playing.00:09 – The High School Metal BandLarry formed a heavy-metal band called Fallen Angel, later Perfect Stranger, influenced by Motley Crüe, Poison, and Ozzy Osbourne. That mix of rock energy and groove became part of his foundation.00:10 – Discovering Studio LegendsHe recalls studying the session greats — Steve Gadd, Jeff Porcaro, Hal Blaine, and JR Robinson — and how copying their records taught him to listen, absorb, and reproduce other players' feel. That skill later helped him sub successfully on Broadway.00:13 – Choosing Music Over a “Backup Plan”Despite warnings from family about the risks of a music career, Larry stayed focused. A mentor told him, “If it's the thing you must do, then you have to do it.” That advice stuck.00:16 – University of Wisconsin–Eau ClaireHe studied jazz performance, percussion, and conducting, earning a Bachelor of Music degree. He credits conductor Robert Baca and professor Ron Keiser for turning Eau Claire into a respected jazz program.00:19 – Nashville YearsLarry moved to Nashville in the early 90s and toured with the country-comedy duo Pinkerton Bowden and later with country balladeer Doug Stone. He shares what life on the road was really like and why he eventually grew tired of touring.00:24 – The Call of New YorkAfter meeting jazz players on a cruise, he decided to explore Broadway. They told him his versatility would fit New York's theater scene. His first exposure to a pit was watching Ray Marchica play Damn Yankees — a life-changing moment.00:28 – Starting Over in NYCHe saved $10,000, moved to the city, and started sitting in on shows. Early on, he learned that “no one cares what you've done anywhere else — they only care what you've done in New York.” That lesson shaped how he built credibility.00:33 – Miss Saigon: The BreakthroughMichael Hinton gave Larry a shot at subbing the massive percussion book for Miss Saigon. The score had originally been written for three percussionists. Larry practiced daily for a month and nailed his first show — instantly building a reputation as someone who could handle the hardest gig in town.00:37 – From Subbing to a ChairLarry began subbing at Beauty and the Beast, Les Misérables, and other productions, eventually holding nine different sub books at once. His first full Broadway chair came with Jekyll and Hyde.00:42 – Landing The ProducersWhen Jekyll and Hyde closed, a referral led to an audition with legendary conductor Paul Gemignani for a new show. Although that production closed quickly, the connection opened doors. A few years later, Larry joined The Producers, which became a long-running hit.00:46 – Lessons on LongevityLarry emphasizes professionalism: showing up prepared, treating every sub date like an audition, and understanding that reliability and attitude matter as much as chops. Every gig, even the short-lived ones, builds your reputation.00:48 – Teaching and Passing It OnHe now teaches drummers how to approach theater work with discipline and respect for the craft — reading, listening, blending, and adapting.Key Takeaways* Learning by listening prepares you for the realities of Broadway.* Every show, even a short run, can lead to future work.* Versatility is a drummer's greatest asset — orchestral, rock, jazz, and pop all show up in modern theater books.* Reputation is everything. People hire musicians who make their lives easier.* Keep the joy.

This song might be one you've slow danced to or belted out in the car, but when you listen closely, the lyrics reveal a not-so-great message: love has to be proven, and words aren't enough. This episode breaks down how this idea can show up in our real-life relationships and what to look out for when "proving love" turns into people pleasing.

This months prompt and how best to use it: “When you think about love, what stories have you carried with you — and where did they come from? A song? A movie? Something you were told growing up?” Take a few quiet minutes to reflect on the romantic beliefs you've internalized over the years. Which ones shaped how you loved — or stayed — in your relationship? Are there ideas that no longer feel true? Which ones still feel like a part of you, and which ones are asking to be rewritten? You're not blaming yourself — you're just getting curious. Because healing your story often starts with noticing who helped write it. - - - - - - --  Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

This week, The Flourish Careers Podcast turns 3(!!) and we're kicking off Season 10 with reflection, celebration, and impactful mindset resets. Here's the thing—I used to think starting something new meant “starting over.” But what I've learned is that we never really start from scratch. Every skill, every experience, every connection we've built comes with us. It's not starting over—it's expanding into what's next.⁠ If you've ever felt like you're “starting over” when making a career shift, tune in for powerful shifts to carry with you into your next season of growth.

This episode is a little fire, a little heart. We're exploring what it really means to stop shrinking yourself for the comfort of others, and how that shift can feel both empowering and lonely. If you've been second-guessing who you're becoming because someone doesn't get it, this one is for you. - - - - - - --  Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Today, Eric is delighted to welcome Melva LaJoy Legrand as his guest. Melva is an icon in our industry, having built an impressive career that spans the US, France, and Europe, earning numerous recognitions along the way. In this episode, she shares her journey and discusses the honors she received within the industry, offering inspiration and insights for solopreneurs and small business owners. Her Journey Melva began her career as a teacher, but her creative spark kept pulling her in a different direction. A volunteering stint at a radio station one summer introduced her to concerts, festivals, and events, and she discovered her true calling. With the unwavering support of her parents, she stepped into event planning, starting at the bottom, and soaking up every lesson she learned along the way. With the help of her mentors, she managed to overcome her fear, learn about leadership, and shape her emotional intelligence. With perseverance, faith, and resilience, Melva built her own business, LaJoy Creative, weaving together her professional achievements and her personal trials.  Her Early Career Melva describes her early years as a "preparation season”, where she embraced every small task with humility, absorbing lessons from behind the scenes. That shaped her professional values, helping her decide the kind of leader she wanted to become. Mentorship and Growth Melva had several mentors who were all central to her development. One of her mentors encouraged her toward a leadership position at a major festival, creating a breakthrough moment where she discovered her own capacity to lead. This experience highlighted the importance of humility, teachability, and persistence in building effective mentor relationships. Building Confidence and Starting Over Melva restarted her business in 2019 during a deeply challenging period while caring for her ailing father. His encouragement gave her the courage to relaunch her business, and she also received additional confirmation from her mentors and unexpected encounters, fueling her belief that her business was her purpose. Overcoming Trauma and Anchoring in Faith As a survivor of abuse and trauma, Melva knows that therapy, faith, support groups, and resilience are an essential part of the healing process. Her faith and clarity about her values have shaped her leadership and business decisions, ensuring she only accepts work that aligns with her principles. Awards and Recognition Melva has received numerous honors, including recognition for organizing survivor-focused events, being named a Top Female Founder 500, and winning Silver for International Event Agency of the Year. Those awards affirm her parents' belief that the world would always make room for her. She also takes pride in recent collaborations, including honoring cultural icons at a major beauty and artistry event. Cultural Perspective: US vs France Living between the US and France has given Melva unique insight into the work-life balance. She contrasts the American culture of overwork with the French emphasis on rest and leisure. While she acknowledges higher US salaries, she credits her best creative breakthroughs to the mental clarity she gained during her time abroad.

This episode is a deeper look at why you might still be feeling stuck or low, even when you've been actively journaling, reflecting, and going to therapy.

You know that feeling when you wake up and your first thought isn't about your day, your dreams, or even your coffee, but instead it's about who needs what from you today? Your partner needs you to handle that thing they've been putting off. Your kids need you to solve their problems before they even head off to school. Your clients need responses to emails that came in overnight. Your team needs decisions. Your parents need check-ins. And somewhere in the back of your mind, there's this tiny voice asking, "But what about what I need?" And you push it down because there's no time for that right now. Too many people are depending on you. Too many responsibilities that can't wait. But what if we've got this completely backwards? What if the most generous, loving, impactful thing you could do for everyone in your life is to make your own life your number one priority?     WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE In this episode, I'm sharing why YOU'RE number one in your life (and why you need to start acting like it) so you can stop drowning in everyone else's needs and start creating the life you're meant to live.   Why we were conditioned to believe good women put everyone else first (and why that's killing us) The real cost of managing everyone else's life while yours is on pause How the "oxygen mask principle" goes deeper than you think Why your children need to see you prioritize yourself (not just hear you talk about it) The three questions to ask before saying yes to any request How to create non-negotiable time for yourself without guilt Why guilt is actually proof you're doing something different (not wrong) How to communicate this shift to your family and clients Christine's Personal Story: How her ex-husband's advice to their sons,  "You're number one," became the inspiration for this episode, and why every woman needs to hear that same message.   RESOURCES & LINKS Related Episodes: Episode 09: Personal Responsibility Episode 349: What I've Learned About Success, Self-Worth, and Starting Over at 55   CONNECT & TAKE ACTION Find Christine: Email: christine@manipuracentre.co Podcast: Make More Money as a Dietitian on Apple Podcasts | Spotify Community: Join 1200+ dietitians in The Make More Money as a Dietitian Community  Instagram: @money.mindset.dietitian Website: manipuracentre.co Your Next Steps: Step 1: Take This Week's Challenge Identify one area where you've been putting everyone else's needs before your own and flip that script for the next seven days.

And it's more common — and more damaging — than most guys realize.In this episode, I'll explain the science behind it, how it messes with your head, and what you can do to finally get some peace. This isn't about shaming you. It's about helping you understand your own mind — so you can stop sabotaging something good.

This episode is for the days when the doubt creeps in. When you feel wobbly about who you are or where you're headed, these five reminders can help you find your footing again.

Molly also shares three practical ways to harness seasonal energy without falling into the trap of believing your progress has been erased.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the Fresh Start Effect makes new seasons and beginnings feel so motivatingHow the Default Mode Network acts as your brain's internal narrator and helps you mark life chaptersThe difference between seasonal resets and the illusion of “starting over”How neuroplasticity ensures that every attempt, even slips, strengthens your brain's pathwaysThree science-backed strategies to make September resets stickKey Quote“Your brain loves fresh starts because it loves stories.
