In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, Julian speaks with Alex Panayotou, one of only five women globally to complete extreme solo running challenges including a 400km non-stop run. Alex shares her transformation from a place of repeated failures and pessimism in her 30s to becoming an endurance mindset expert who has developed leaders at companies like Coca Cola, Uber, and Microsoft. She reveals how her eight years of solo extreme challenges became a strategic process for personal development, ultimately shaping her approach to leadership resilience and burnout prevention. Alex takes listeners inside her most challenging moment during the 400km run when everything went wrong simultaneously; team member absences, accidents, equipment failures, and near heat stroke. Through vivid storytelling, she demonstrates how mental clarity under extreme pressure translates directly to business crisis management. The conversation explores practical strategies for developing what Alex calls the real "hard skills" - emotional regulation, strategic thinking under stress, and building teams based on attitude rather than just technical competence. Alex's insights on preparation, pivoting under pressure, and maintaining clarity during both professional challenges and personal crises like her cancer diagnosis offer actionable frameworks for anyone facing significant obstacles.

In this episode of the Dream It, Do It Podcast, I'm joined by Janelle Walter, former High Performance client, a senior marketing director, corporate leader, and mom of three, who opens up about what it really looks like to shift from scattered and stretched thin… to grounded and fulfilled. Janelle shares so vulnerably about the turning point that led her to reach out for coaching—when she realized her day-to-day pace wasn't sustainable and she was constantly running on fumes. We talk about the small, intentional shifts that helped her reclaim her energy, get back in the driver's seat of her calendar, and start showing up more fully in both her career and her family life. From setting better boundaries at work, to building in space for strategic thinking (instead of constantly reacting), to redefining what "success" looks like as a mom and a leader—Janelle shares so many gems that will resonate if you've ever felt pulled in a million directions. We also talk about: Letting go of perfectionism and softening into your season How community and coaching helped her get unstuck What it looks like to lead from a place of peace, not pressure The very real case for the 4-day work week
If you've ever sidestepped a tough conversation, ignored a problem, or avoided something that scares you, this episode is for you. Avoidance and anxiety often go hand-on-hand. Avoiding a problem helps you feel better right now, but it leads to long-term problems. It also makes anxiety worse in the long run. Today I'm joined by Dr. Robin Walser, clinical psychologist and expert in acceptance and commitment therapy. Together, we explore why we avoid, how it impacts our mental health, and—most importantly—how to break free from the avoidance cycle. Some of the things we talk about are: Why avoidance feels good in the short term but keeps you stuck in the long run How avoidance shrinks your life and disconnects you from the things that matter most to you The surprising ways avoidance is reinforced—and how to break the cycle How to face uncomfortable emotions without feeling overwhelmed Why connecting with your values can help you face the things you're trying to avoid How to take small steps toward the things you've been avoiding The link between facing your discomfort and mental strength Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like bonus episodes, signed books, and 30-day challenges that will keep you growing stronger.

Blaine Stimac started with one small clinic in Kalispell, Montana. Today, he's the founder and CEO of Health & Rehab Solutions, leading 40 clinics across five states. Few people in our industry have navigated the growth journey at that scale—and even fewer can break it down as clearly as Blaine. In this episode of the Private Practice Owners Club Podcast, Nathan Shields sits down with Blaine to unpack the five phases of private practice growth—from the scrappy early days of solvency to scaling multiple clinics with strong leadership teams. They dive into: The hidden challenges in each phase of ownership (and why most stall out in Phase 2)How to know when it's time to hire, expand, or shift your focusWhy profits aren't linear—and what to expect as you growThe leadership leap every owner must make to scale beyond themselvesHow to keep your systems running even when you step away If you've ever wondered, “What's next for my practice?”—this episode will give you the roadmap.
Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try to manage your time, you're still running on empty? The to-do list grows, the kids need you, work demands pull you in all directions, and you're left wondering if you'll ever have enough time to breathe. In this episode, I share my personal journey of how my perspective on time shifted drastically after becoming a solo parent / single parent when my husband went to Heaven. Suddenly, raising three active kids, being the sole breadwinner, and navigating grief all collided—and I realized my relationship with time needed to change. We'll explore biblical time management—because most “time problems” aren't really about calendars or planners, they're heart issues. Together, we'll look at what God's Word says about redeeming our days, finding rest, and making space for what matters most. You'll walk away with: Heart questions to uncover what's really driving your schedule Practical time management tips rooted in Scripture Encouragement to let go of perfection and walk in God's timing A reminder that He's given you enough time for what He's called you to do If you're an exhausted mom—whether you're working, solo parenting, or just trying to keep up with daily life—this conversation will help you release the pressure, find peace, and step into rhythms that honor both God and your season.

We share openly about what we've been moving through together, some of the miracles we've experienced, and the emotions that have risen along the way. I cry. We reflect. We hold space for it all.

You've been told therapy is the answer to everything. That if you just unpack hard enough, you'll finally be free. But what if that's not the full story? This week, Terry Crist joins me to challenge beliefs that cause deeper destruction. He's seen how long-standing secrets fracture the soul, how the orphan spirit grows in Christian homes, and how many believers never outgrow wounded identity, even into legacy years. In this conversation, Terry decodes why running away from truth never works, how idolizing therapy can drain godly authority, and why healing is never finished, even if you've been in the room for decades. He brings the fight where healing meets holiness, and shows how to refuse lie-lay, stop hiding, and step into belonging. If you've ever carried a secret, felt disconnected in the Church, or believed your wounds had an expiry date, you need to hear this episode.

You're performing. You're delivering. Great - but what's actually driving you day to day? Many high performers are secretly powering their success with a unsustainable fuel source - fear:
Pastor, speaker and author Terry Crist guides readers toward the safety and healing that is found within the sanctuary of God's boundless love in his new book, Now You Can Stop Running: Finding the Rest Your Soul Desperately Needs. Spiritual brokenness and human nature prompt us to run at signs of trouble. Our instinct is to escape the fear, disappointment, unresolved trauma and unhealed wounds of the past, thinking we will find peace. But Crist questions if there is more to this endless cycle of running."What if we're not just running away but also running toward? What if, beneath the surface, our pursuit isn't for something but for someone--one who invites us to rest from our striving and to find refuge in him? If such a person exists, then our running is transformed. It's no longer an exercise in futility but a journey toward the peace, safety, and wholeness our souls were made to experience." In Now You Can Stop Running, Crist reveals a better approach to find the deep rest we seek, and that God has promised.TOPICS:BACKGROUND CHILDHOOD OWNING FAITH GOD SHAPING IN YOU NOW WHAT ABOUY GOD MOST IMPRESSES YOU?BOOK:NOW YOU CAN STOP RUNNING WHY YOU - WHY NOW?

The power-over / power-under / power-with dynamic isn't just something we have with other people, it often resides inside us. When we override our emotions, suppress our sensations, and try to outmaneuver our discomfort, we manifest that dynamic. We see it when we push past our sadness, armor over vulnerability, or try to exert power in ways that are loud and forceful instead of connected and quiet. Maybe it's thinking we need to toughen up and act like a badass in reaction to our sadness. That's what we think being powerful looks like. But what if the real path to personal power was learning to stay? To breathe. To notice. To be with what's actually happening in our body. Most of us are in a constant, unconscious tug-of-war with ourselves. Trying to control, suppress, or outperform our inner experience. But emotional triggers are a huge opportunity many waste. They are an invitation to move old pain through and reclaim our presence. This is what true, embodied power looks like. In this episode, we're joined by Julie Colwell, PhD, a psychologist, teacher, and author who's spent decades training coaches and therapists in conscious relationship skills. She takes us through her heart-centered S.E.W. practice to guide people back to alignment in moments that would otherwise spiral into self-judgment, shutdown, or struggle. You'll also witness us work through a real-time moment of sadness and regret using Julie's process. Things You'll Learn In This Episode -Feel to Flow Body awareness is the key to emotional freedom. Can connecting to our physical sensations shift us out of self-judgment and into grace? -Power Over vs. Power With What if our instinct to control others (or ourselves) is actually a fear response? How does hierarchy creep in during reactive states, and how do we choose co-creation over control? -From Shame to Self-Compassion Honoring our emotional truths creates space for transformation. Is there a way to meet our inner child with kindness instead of critique? -What You Really Want Under every reaction is a deeper longing. How do we uncover our truest desires once we've moved the emotion through?

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training If you're the visionary still stuck doing the work, you're not scaling—you're surviving. Joaby Parker knows that loop well. From launching his agency straight out of college to nearly burning out and walking away, his story is a masterclass in doing too much, too long. In this episode, you'll hear how Joaby broke free from the grind, stopped bottlenecking his team, and built a business that scales without him. He shares his journey from founding his first agency right out of college to walking away and returning to agency life with a new approach and mindset. He reveals what caused his early plateau, why he left to work client-side, and how returning to the agency world taught him how to lead, grow, and eventually let go of the creative and account management roles that were holding him back. Joaby Parker is the founder and CEO of Cover 3 Growth Partners, a strategy-first agency based in Logan, Utah, focused on food and CPG brands. With a background in creative marketing and brand development, Joaby's approach combines practical business strategy with creative execution. He discusses how his passion for marketing and working closely with various agencies inspired him to start his own and reflects on the challenges of the early years, the gradual momentum they built, and how he learned that building a successful agency isn't about doing more. It's about doing less of the wrong things—and putting the right people, values, and systems in place so you can grow without burning out. In this episode, we'll discuss: The turning point that made him leave his first agency and come back stronger. How his mindset around delegation and trust evolved. Why being a visionary means you're probably a bad manager—and that's okay.

Why Joaby Chose the Agency Path: Early Missteps & Major Momentum Joaby had a purposeful entry into the agency space, after developing a passion for marketing working with several agencies on the client side at Health & Fitness. He had the opportunity to work hand in hand with many agencies and knew he would someday want to run one himself. After a few years of learning experience, he and his partner made the jump to start their own agency. Being quite young, their first few years with the agency were marked by a lack of direction. Their first big turning point came after securing a contact with Chemdry that led to a complete rebrand of this company. Soon after, when HomeDepot acquired the carpet cleaning business, Joaby and his partner had the opportunity to assist in this transition period, helping all Chemdry franchisees take advantage of this new HomeDepot partnership. This is really when the business took off and Joaby and his partner started to deal with other aspects of scaling. The Breaking Point That Made Him Go Back to His Roots Growth flatlined. Burnout crept in. Joaby's agency hit the ceiling—and he couldn't figure out why. Turns out, it wasn't a marketing problem. It was a management problem. Initially, Joaby attributed this stagnation to geography—living in a small town seemed to be limiting their growth potential, especially during a time when digital outreach was much more challenging than it is today. Around this same time, an existing client presented Joaby with an opportunity to join their internal team. It was a great opportunity and a needed break from the agency life so he accepted, after securing another partner that could take over his contributions at the agency. It felt like going back to basics for him and gave him the time and space to think about what went wrong at that agency. Looking back, he sees the reason for that first agency's plateau was a lack of processes. While referrals from existing clients provided a steady stream of work, they were insufficient for sustained growth, which ultimately led to a plateau in growth. Ultimately, they struggled to find opportunities to get in front of people to do more work. This scenario is all too familiar for agency owners. They typically reach a breaking point where their small founding teams can no longer handle the client load. The natural response is to hire more staff, which increases revenue but often decreases profit margins—leaving owners feeling trapped and pressured. The key differentiator between agencies that remain stuck and those that break through to the next level is making the strategic decision to raise prices rather than simply adding more bodies to the team. You Don't Need to Do It All—You Need the Right People Looking back, Joaby now realizes he could have pushed the agency to that next stage of growth, but at the time, the pressure felt overwhelming. He still wasn't good at running an agency, just good at working in one, and although it seemed like the business was evolving, the reality was that Joaby had more costs than ever and was working more hours than he ever had before. At that moment, the opportunity to go back to work on the client side seemed like an escape. Joaby admits that, for most of his career, he was a bad business manager. If you're reading this as a visionary-minded agency owner—which many are—you might recognize yourself in his story. Rather than forcing yourself into an ill-fitting management role, the solution is to build a team that amplifies your natural strengths. This means hiring self-managing professionals or dedicated operations managers who can handle the day-to-day business mechanics, freeing you to focus your energy where it creates the most impact. The common objection to this approach is cost: "I can't afford to hire that level of talent."If this is your case, then the easiest solution will always be to raise your prices. How to justify that raise? Narrow your focus. When you become the go-to expert for a particular niche, you'll discover clients who are willing to pay for your true value rather than treating your services as a commodity. Stop Running the Mouse—Start Leading the Team These days, Joaby's creative involvement is way down from what it used to be. For many years, most of the agency's creative work still needed his approval in some way or another. However, at one point he and his partner realized that, whenever he wasn't stuck doing the creative work the agency grew and once he did go back to it, the agency stagnated. Agency growth is often limited by the founder, not the market, not the clients, and not even the team. When he focused on building and leading—growth resumed. If you're still running the mouse, reviewing every piece of creative, or handling every big client call, you're not leading—you're doing. And that's the bottleneck. It took Joaby some time to learn this. In fact, other than overseeing creative, he was also main account manager, where he didn't do the best job, since he couldn't fully focus on that area. In the end, client complaints about lack of focus helped Joaby recognize that it was time to hire account managers and start delegating. Scaling an agency isn't about doing more—it's about doing less yourself. By embracing your role as a leader, not a doer, hiring smarter, and building a team around your vision, you create the space for sustainable growth.

It's not motivation you need, but the courage to stop running from yourself. Trusting the process, even when doubt creeps in, is part of the journey. Sometimes, growth feels like carrying the weight of the world, but that's proof you're still in the game. Failure isn't about falling short. It's about sitting across from yourself and wondering if the best is behind you. Let the descent be earned and collapse at the finish line, not walk away from the race.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation
The Bible uses the metaphor of a marathon to illustrate the perseverance of the Christian life. It's a picture we can understand. Today, you and I are still in our race. We are on a journey of serving Jesus. We have not finished it yet. We must keep going until we reach the end.Main Points:1. Let me encourage you today. Don't let anything stop you from running this race. Don't let anything trip you up or hinder you from reaching the finish line. 2. You and I can persevere to the end. We can finish the race God has given us. We can be faithful and live for Jesus until the end of our lives. We know this is possible because God has given us everything we need for a godly life.3. Sometimes the race gets so hard that you aren't sure if you can make it. Yet, we are encouraged by this truth that if others have persevered to the end, so can we. Today's Scripture Verses:Hebrews 12:1-2 - “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.”2 Peter 1:3 - “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.”James 1:12 - “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

Send me a Text Message!In this episode, Mike dives deep into the misunderstood realm of shadow work and how emotional discomfort often reveals the exact area of life calling for liberation. Drawing from his own experiences and coaching conversations, Mike shares how facing the parts of yourself you've rejected—your fear, shame, judgment, or insecurity—is the gateway to deeper trust, inner peace, and personal power. Shadow work isn't something to be afraid of—it's the very path to becoming whole. If you've ever felt like something inside is blocking your next level, this episode offers the clarity and insight to move through it.Key Takeaways:Your Shadow Isn't the Problem—Avoiding It Is–Facing the parts of yourself you've been avoiding leads to emotional freedom, not deeper pain.Your Triggers Are Invitations–Emotional reactions aren't obstacles—they're signals that healing is ready to occur.Healing Happens Through Awareness, Not Force–When you sit with discomfort instead of fighting it, transformation unfolds naturally.You Are Not Broken–Your shadow isn't something to fix—it's something to love, integrate, and bring into wholeness.Power Is Found in Integration–When you stop abandoning parts of yourself, you reclaim the full power of your presence.Notable Quotes:“When you stop trying to outrun your shadow and start turning toward it, it dissolves its power over you.”“You're not here to be perfect. You're here to become whole.”“The shadow will scream for your attention until you love it.”“That emotion is not a problem—it's an invitation into your next level of personal power.”“When you stop rejecting what's hard to feel, you stop rejecting who you are.”Music Credit: "What's Left of Me" by Wes Hoffman & FriendsClick here to visit our website to access free tools and resources, our Meditation Bundle, upcoming events, and our coaching service offerings.My Social Media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mikekitkoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mike_kitkoTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mikekitkoSubscribe to my YouTube: / @mikekitkoMike Kitko is an executive self-mastery coach, speaker and author.

Are you building the business you actually want—or just the one you think you should have? In this episode, we get honest about the constant pressure to scale, grow, and do more in the pet care industry. We share how chasing someone else's definition of success can lead to burnout, resentment, and misalignment with your personal goals. Instead, we encourage you to use data, not emotion, when making decisions and to define what sustainable success means for you. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone looking to grow intentionally and build a business that supports their life—not the other way around. Main Topics Growth vs. sustainable success Data-driven business decisions Defining personal success Market demands vs. personal boundaries Reclaiming joy in business Main takeaway: “We all need to stop building businesses that we think we should have and start building ones that we actually want.” It's easy to get caught in the noise of comparison and industry pressure—everyone says you have to grow, scale, and offer more. But what if your ideal business doesn't look like that? What if it's smaller, simpler, and actually supports the life you want to live? That's not failure—that's freedom. Give yourself permission to build something that you love. Links: Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts! Check out ProTrainings Code: CPR-petsitterconfessional for 10% off

If you want to meet Devin along with over 140 ambitious gym owners and completely transform the way you run your gym click the link below to secure your spot at the most anticipated gym business event of the yearhttps://vincegabriele.com/gym-business-raw/ In this episode, Vince sits down with Devin Gage, a gym owner who went from struggling to sign his first client to running multiple gyms and making millions. They talk about the highs, the lows, and the oh sh*t moments of business growth. Devin shares how he went from clueless and overwhelmed to confident and strategic, breaking down the exact mindset and frameworks that got him there. They dive into the importance of having a clear vision, making data-driven decisions, and finding the right people to grow your business without losing your sanity. If you're a gym owner wondering what's next, this episode is packed with insights that'll help you level up. Five Key Takeaways:Get Clear on What You WantSaying “I want to grow” isn't enough. You need a specific, tangible goal—whether it's hitting $1.5M in revenue, working 20 hours less per week, or opening a second location. If your goal doesn't make you a little nervous, it's probably not big enough.Feel the Fear and Do It AnywayBig moves come with big risks, but sitting still is riskier. Devin follows a simple three-question framework:What's the upside?What's the worst-case scenario?Can I live with that worst case?If you can, it's time to move forward.Stop Running on Feelings—Know Your NumbersA gym owner saying “I feel like business is good” without knowing their retention rate, conversion numbers, or sales data is flying blind. The numbers don't lie—if you don't track them, you can't fix what's broken.Your Business Is Only as Good as Your PeopleIf you want to grow, you need self-driven facility leaders. These aren't people who wait to be told what to do—they take action, build relationships, and treat the gym like their own. Hire the right leaders, and your business will grow. Hire the wrong ones, and you'll lose a ton of money (Devin learned this the hard way).Your Job Will Change—And That's a Good ThingScaling means stepping away from the daily grind and spending more time thinking, solving problems, and planning for the future. It's not always exciting, but it's what takes you from running a gym to running a business. If you're stuck in “firefighter mode” putting out problems all day, you'll never get to the next level.

I have heard lots of different things that runners tell me their doctors said..., "You are not built like a runner." "You cannot run with your foot type." "Running just does not work for you. Decades ago, an orthopedic surgeon who did my reconstructive knee surgery said to me, "If you ever run, you will have to have a total knee replacement within 10 years." My knee is still good. And I have been running for decades. I did my first 50-mile trail race when I turned 50. I have done 15 Ironman triathlons. So clearly, my doctor's advice to stop running was wrong. Did your doctor ever tell you to stop running after a stress fracture? Well, I hope not, but if so, this episode might be for you because that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
There is nothing worse than being told to stop running, especially when you have no idea how long you're not going to be able to run. You like your doctor. She is nice. She is smart and helpful. She seems to really care about your running, and even listens to you talk about your last run. But when she tells you, that you cannot run, there are three questions that you need to ask. Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we're talking about the top three questions to ask your doctor when she tells you, you have to stop running because you have a metatarsal stress fracture.
ORIGINAL: JUNE 6, 2021Today we talk about the difference between running away from something vs. running towards a goal.

This week, we're joined by Jana Spangler for a powerful and practical conversation about emotions—especially the ones we'll do just about anything to avoid feeling.Jana explains that emotions aren't our enemies; they're signals—messages from deep within us, rooted in ancient systems designed to guide and protect us. While emotions can feel overwhelming or even painful, learning to pay attention to them—rather than suppress or ignore them—helps us understand what's really going on and respond with greater clarity, wisdom, and connection.She breaks down what emotions actually are, how they begin in our bodies, and why listening to them is key to living a healthier, more wholehearted life. Jana shares practical tools for processing even the most uncomfortable emotions and teaches us how to build emotional resilience by sitting with discomfort instead of running from it. This practice, she explains, not only strengthens our ability to face life's challenges but also nourishes our relationships, our physical and mental well-being, and our communities, creating space for greater connection and healing.This episode is full of tools to help you navigate the hardest days and we hope it inspires you like it did us. With that, here's our conversation with Jana Spangler.

Hi my loves
Tired of treating life like a never-ending self-improvement project? Today's guest, Dr. Kim D'Eramo, MindBody Healing Expert and author of Be Your Own Healer, is back with us to explore how shifting this mindset can open the door to real healing. If you've been fighting—or “flighting”—through life, Dr. Kim is here to show you a different path. She dives into why chronic health struggles often stem from unprocessed emotions and stress patterns that we carry in our bodies, and also reveals how softening our approach, rather than pushing harder, can be the key to seeing transformative results on our healing journeys. She'll guide you through practices for listening to your body's signals, releasing fear and inflammation, and overcoming limiting beliefs that often hold us back. Dr. Kim's insights remind us that health doesn't come from forcing change, but from aligning with our body's innate wisdom. Tune in to this episode (and your body) to learn more! Be Your Own Healer Book HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Healing Starts with Awareness: Simply tuning into the body's signals—without judgment—can reveal hidden patterns that may be affecting our health. "Where Your Attention Goes, Your Energy Flows": By focusing on areas of peace rather than fear, you can change your body's physiology and support healing.

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls' Night! I'm so excited about today's episode. Today we're talking about how to stop running on empty and prioritize your emotional, spiritual and physical needs. If you're anything like me, you're trying your best to do it all and be the person that everyone needs you to be, even if it comes at the expense of your own health and well-being. We all know that isn't a sustainable way of living and eventually leads to things like stress and total burnout. That's why I invited today's guest, Debra Fileta, back on the show to help us out! Debra is a licensed professional counselor, podcaster, speaker, and author who specializes in dating, marriage, and relationship issues, along with mental and emotional health. She recently released a book called Soul Care where she teaches us 6 practices Jesus implemented in His own life and ministry and how we can apply those same practices to our lives. Two of my favorite practices she explains in the episode were protect and savor. More about that soon! Okay, let's hop into my conversation with Debra! Learn more about your ad choices.
