Podcasts about strengths

Have you ever watched your child struggle with something and immediately felt the urge to step in?Maybe they couldn't find the right words in a conversation.Maybe they were frustrated by homework.Maybe they forgot something important.Maybe they felt nervous before an event.Maybe they were disappointed by a friendship.Or maybe they were standing on a stool trying to fill up their own water bottle, taking twice as long as it would take you.Maybe they were struggling to zip their jacket.Order their own meal.Ask the question themselves.Carry the bag.Tie the shoe.And before they even had a chance to work through it, you were already reaching for a solution.Explaining. Fixing. Helping. Rescuing.If you're a parent, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Chances are, when it's happening in real time, you don't even realize you're doing it.Because watching our children struggle is uncomfortable.Personally, I think it's often harder to watch your child struggle than it is to face your own struggles.We love them. We want to protect them. We want to spare them unnecessary pain. We want to make things easier when we can.Sometimes we see the obstacle before they do. Sometimes we see their potential and all the possibilities that lie ahead, and because we can spot the roadblock coming, we want to clear it before they ever reach it.The motivation is beautiful. It's love.We love them so much that we want to spare them heartache. Frustration. Disappointment. Embarrassment. Failure. We want to cushion the fall before it ever happens.And honestly, this is something I think about all the time with Sledge.As a special-needs parent, this question carries an extra layer for me. There are moments when helping is absolutely necessary. Moments when support, advocacy, therapy, and intervention matter deeply.But there are also moments when I find myself asking:Am I helping because he truly needs help? Or am I helping because I'm uncomfortable watching him struggle?Because if I'm honest, there are times when Sledge has proven himself far more capable than I expected.He adapts.He perseveres.He figures things out.He keeps trying.And over and over again, he reminds me that capability is often built in the very moments we're tempted to step in.Lately I've been wondering something.What if, in our effort to help, we occasionally step in too soon?What if some of the very experiences we're trying to save our children from are the experiences that would help them discover what they're capable of?What if every time we rush in before they actually need us, we unintentionally communicate a message we never meant to send?Not, “I've got you.”But, “I don't think you've got this.”What if our constant rescuing quietly teaches them to doubt their own resilience?To question their ability to problem-solve?To believe that discomfort is something to escape rather than something they can move through?Because confidence isn't built when someone else always does it for us.Confidence is built when we discover that we can do hard things.That we can recover.That we can adapt.That we can try again.That we can survive disappointment.That we can face challenges and keep moving forward.That God has equipped us for more than we realize.Even if we fall.Even if it's messy.Even if it takes longer than we'd like.Even if the water bottle spills all over the floor.That's why I was so excited to sit down with my friends Sissy Goff and David Thomas to discuss their new book, Capable: How to Teach Your Kids the Strengths, Skills, and Strategies to Build Resilience.Get all the notes and resources on from this podcast at cleerelystated.substack.com and join the community!

The FIFA World Cup and ACL injuries remain one of the most impactful injuries in professional soccer. While much of the discussion around ACL reconstruction focuses on graft choice, rehabilitation, and return-to-play timelines, a new study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine highlights an often-overlooked challenge: secondary muscle injuries after athletes return to competition.In this episode of Overtime with The Sports Docs, Drs. Ashley Bassett and Catherine Logan review the newly published article, "Secondary Muscle Injuries and Performance Decline After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Professional Soccer." The study examines the incidence, timing, and impact of muscle injuries following ACL reconstruction in elite soccer players and explores how these injuries affect performance, playing time, and even market value.The findings reinforce an important principle in sports medicine: return to play is not the finish line—it is only the next phase of recovery.Key Discussion PointsUnderstanding ACL Injuries in SoccerCommon mechanisms of ACL injury in soccerWhy cutting, pivoting, deceleration, and landing place soccer players at particularly high riskThe career implications of ACL injuries in professional athletesACL Reconstruction Graft OptionsBone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BTB) autograftHamstring tendon autograftQuadriceps tendon autograftAdvantages and disadvantages of each graft choiceWhy allograft tissue is generally avoided in elite athletesModern Return-to-Play Decision MakingMoving beyond time-based return-to-play criteriaStrength testing and limb symmetryHop testing and movement analysisNeuromuscular control assessmentPsychological readiness for sportOngoing graft maturation and biologic healingStudy Review: Secondary Muscle Injuries After ACL ReconstructionThe authors evaluated professional male soccer players from Europe's top leagues who underwent ACL reconstruction between 2020 and 2023 and compared them with matched healthy controls.Key findings included:32.5% of ACL-reconstructed players sustained a secondary muscle injury within one year of return to playOnly 12.5% of matched controls experienced muscle injuriesACL-reconstructed athletes were more than twice as likely to sustain a muscle injury after returnMost Common Secondary InjuriesHamstring strains (42%)Quadriceps strains (32%)Calf injuries (16%)Adductor injuries (11%)Notably, nearly 70% of injuries occurred on the reconstructed side, suggesting persistent deficits may contribute to injury risk.The Highest-Risk WindowOne of the most important findings:Nearly 58% of all secondary muscle injuries occurred between 3 and 6 months after return to competitionThis period may represent a critical vulnerability window when athletes are increasing match exposure, training volume, and competition demands.The Importance of the 9-Month RuleThe strongest predictor of secondary muscle injury was early return to play:Athletes returning before 9 months after ACL reconstruction had nearly a fivefold increased risk of secondary muscle injuryThis study adds to the growing body of evidence supporting delayed, criteria-based return to sport rather than return based solely on time.Performance and Career ImpactPlayers who sustained secondary muscle injuries experienced:Reduced playing timeFewer minutes on the fieldDecreased participation metricsDeclines in overall performanceThe study also demonstrated significant reductions in player market value among athletes who experienced secondary injuries, highlighting the financial and career implications of incomplete recovery.Strengths and Limitations of the StudyStrengthsMatched-control designFocus on elite professional soccer playersInclusion of performance metrics and market value outcomesReal-world relevance for sports medicine clinicians and team physiciansLimitationsRetrospective study designRelatively small sample sizeNo objective rehabilitation data availableNo information on graft typeLack of strength testing, hop testing, or psychological readiness measuresNo workload or GPS tracking dataClinical TakeawaysACL recovery extends well beyond return to competition.Return to play should be viewed as a milestone, not the endpoint.The first 3–6 months after return may represent the highest-risk period for secondary injury.Continued strength training, neuromuscular training, and workload monitoring remain essential after athletes resume competition.Returning before 9 months after ACL reconstruction may substantially increase the risk of secondary muscle injury.Successful ACL recovery is not simply about returning to sport—it is about staying healthy and performing at a high level after return.Article Discussed"Secondary Muscle Injuries and Performance Decline After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Professional Soccer"Published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine (AJSM), 2026.

Michael McFaul outlines a grand strategy that leverages the military, economic, and ideational strengths of the democratic world. He acknowledges that American democracy is "wobbling" due to polarization, yet he remains optimistic that the values of freedom and liberty still hold more global appeal than autocratic models. McFaul warns against isolationist trade policies and underscores the need to reinvest in Cold War-era institutions like Radio Free Europe. Ultimately, he argues that a united, functional democracy at home is the best way to lead the new international order. (8)1897

What if the thing you criticize in yourself is connected to one of your deepest gifts? In this episode, I explore the way our strengths and shadows often share the same root. The qualities that make us powerful, sensitive, insightful, effective, creative, or deeply attuned can also come with costs, limitations, and places where we may not function as easily. Inspired by the idea of "impossible opposites" in online dating profiles, this episode looks at the ways we may ask other people, and ourselves, to be contradictory things all at once. We may expect ourselves to be sensitive and tough, spontaneous and focused, deeply relational and endlessly productive, magical and practical, strong and never difficult. But human beings tend to have internal congruence. Our gifts live in relationship with our limits. The same sensitivity that allows you to read energy may make chaotic environments harder on your nervous system. The same problem-solving ability that helps people create real change may not always translate into pure emotional witnessing. The same depth that makes you wonderful in meaningful conversation may not make you the person holding court at every party. This episode is an invitation to soften the pressure to be all things, all at once. Instead of seeing every difficult edge as a flaw, we can begin to ask: What gift lives near this shadow? What strength is connected to this limitation? What would it feel like to honor the actual shape of who I am? We can still build skills where they support our lives. But we do not have to treat ourselves as defective because we are not an impossible collection of every admirable quality.

Molinism is one of the most influential models for reconciling human libertarian freedom and divine sovereignty. While Dr. William Lane Craig is among its most well-known defenders, Dr. Ryan T. Mullins recently argued that Craig's particular articulation of Molinism may contain an incoherence and proposed a possible solution. In this episode, Tyson James of Sound Faith Consulting and Reasonable Faith joins us to examine the debate, unpack the philosophical issues at stake, and evaluate whether the alleged contradiction is genuine or whether William Lane Craig's formulation of Molinism remains coherent.

Both of these types are driven by ideas. Both can light up a room when the topic is right. But underneath that shared curiosity, two very different strivings are running the show.The Five's striving to feel detached, capable, and competent isn't about being a know-it-all, it's about making sure they have enough before they give anything away. They go inward, go deep, and conserve their energy carefully. The Seven's striving to feel excited and satisfied isn't about being scattered, but rather about staying energized and in motion. They go outward, go wide, and keep moving because slowing down feels like being limited and contained.One goes within to recharge. The other expands to stay fueled up. Put them on the same team and you get either the most idea-generating pairing in the building... or two people who genuinely cannot figure out why the other one works the way they do. The difference usually comes down to whether they understand what's actually driving each other.The Strengths of This Pairing:The Five goes deep; the Seven goes wide; together they cover interesting topics that neither could cover alone, and the best ideas usually live in the overlapSevens draw Fives out of their heads and into momentum; that spark can get a Five's best thinking off the whiteboard and into the worldFives give Sevens something they rarely slow down for: needed rigor, helping stress-test an idea before it's already been announced to the whole companyBoth types are genuinely energized by learning; when they find a topic they're both excited about, the conversation is electric and the output shows itPotential Friction:The Seven's pace can feel reckless to a Five; the Five's pace can feel like hesitation to a Seven, and both interpretations are wrong, but neither person says soThe Seven keeps introducing new ideas before the Five has finished with the last one, and the Five quietly loses trust in the Seven's ability to actually executeThe Five's need for quiet and solitude to do their best thinking can feel like rejection to a Seven who is energized by engagement and presenceBoth types avoid sitting with hard things, but from opposite directions; the Seven pivots away through optimism and activity, the Five retreats into analysis, and difficult conversations end up intellectualized or quietly dropped instead of actually resolvedResources + Links:Learn more about the 3-part Dream Team Momentum program: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-team-workshopsRun your own Enneagram Workshop: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-workshop-kitConnect with Sarah on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sarahlynnwallace/Take the 2-question Enneagram quiz: enneagrammba.com/blog/enneagramtestWork with Sarah - workshops, speaking, and team facilitation: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-speakerHave a request for a future episode?

Every team is made up of people who think differently, communicate differently, solve problems differently, and contribute in very different ways. Yet in many workplaces, there is still an unspoken expectation that everyone should operate the same way.That is why strengths-based development has become such an important conversation for organizations and leaders. Gallup research has consistently found that employees who have the opportunity to use their strengths every day are significantly more engaged, more productive, and more likely to thrive at work. Understanding how people naturally work, collaborate, respond under pressure, and contribute to a team can completely change the way teams communicate, partner, and perform together.In this episode of Bring Out the Talent, we explore how CliftonStrengths can help individuals and teams better understand working styles, improve collaboration, and recognize both the advantages and potential blind spots that can come with our greatest strengths. We're joined by Chris Soucy, a Certified CliftonStrengths trainer and career development specialist. Chris spent nearly a decade at Harvard University's Center for Workplace Development as a Program Manager for Leader and Manager Development, where he served as Lead Instructor for foundational leadership programs and designed courses to strengthen management practices across the university.Chris recently facilitated an in-person strengths workshop for our TTA team. The conversations that came out of that session sparked so much reflection around communication, contribution styles, and team dynamics that we wanted to continue the discussion here on Bring Out the Talent and share those insights with our audience as well.

Conflict often gets treated like something to avoid. But in reality, conflict is part of collaboration, decision-making, and working with other people. In this episode, I start with a situation that will feel familiar to many people in food manufacturing and retail. You are sitting in a meeting, you have put time and effort into a project, and suddenly someone challenges your idea. Your heart rate increases. Your mind starts racing. You feel defensive, frustrated, or tempted to shut down completely. These reactions are not signs that you are bad at communication. They are human responses. I explore the Thomas-Kilmann conflict model and the five conflict styles people naturally move towards under pressure: competing, avoiding, accommodating, compromising, and collaborating. The important thing is that none of these styles are right or wrong. They all have strengths and risks. The challenge comes when we rely too heavily on one style and stop adapting to the situation in front of us. I share examples of how each style can show up inside food businesses and the impact they can have on trust, credibility, and relationships. We also explore practical shifts that can help in real-life situations. That might mean asking a question instead of withdrawing when you normally avoid conflict. It could mean holding your position a little longer if you usually accommodate everyone else. Or recognising when pushing harder is actually damaging the conversation. The aim is not to become someone different. It is about becoming more aware of your own patterns and making small adjustments that strengthen relationships and improve outcomes. I also introduce Fearless Influence as a practical way for teams to continue these conversations and better understand how conflict shapes communication and collaboration. If you want stronger conversations, healthier challenge, and more confidence in meetings, this episode is a reminder that conflict does not have to damage relationships. Handled well, it can strengthen them.

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast Experience, John sits down with Claire Gogan, leader of one of Southwest Florida's fastest-growing real estate teams. Claire shares her journey from solo agent to leading a 45-agent organization, the painful lessons she learned along the way, and how agents can create leverage without sacrificing the life they're trying to build. Whether you're a solo agent considering your first hire or a team leader trying to scale without burning out, this conversation delivers practical insights on leadership, hiring, team structures, personal development, and building a business that supports your vision. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why every successful agent eventually needs leverage The difference between building a high-paid job and building a true business How Claire transitioned from solo producer to leading a 45-agent team The three primary team models and who each one is best suited for Why hiring the right people matters more than hiring quickly How personality assessments can improve hiring decisions The role coaching played in Claire's growth journey Why conflict resolution is one of the most important leadership skills How to determine if you're meant to build a team—or simply build leverage The mindset shifts required to survive the difficult early stages of growth How AI is impacting team structure, leadership, and the future of real estate Key Takeaways Get Clear Before You Build Too many agents build businesses based on what they see others doing instead of what they actually want. Before choosing a team model, ask yourself: What kind of life do I want? Do I love selling? Do I enjoy leading people? Am I building freedom or creating another job? Clarity must come before growth. There Is More Than One Way to Build a Team Claire breaks down three common team structures: 1. Small Leverage Team Perfect for agents who love selling Built around an admin, showing partner, and listing support Highly profitable and lean 2. High-Service Team Higher standards and stronger support systems Focused on agent development and market share Typically built around listings and leadership 3. Mega Team Large-scale organizations with 100+ agents Lower profit margins but greater opportunities through ancillary businesses like mortgage, title, insurance, and investments Hire for Strengths, Not Similarities One of Claire's biggest breakthroughs came when she stopped hiring people she liked and started hiring people whose strengths complemented her weaknesses. The right people create leverage. The wrong people create more work. Leadership Requires Letting Go Great people don't want to be micromanaged. If you want to scale: Build systems Create accountability Trust your team Allow people to make mistakes and grow Control limits growth. Failure Is Part of the Process Every team leader faces difficult seasons. Claire shares stories of: Bad hires Turnover Overwhelm Questioning whether to continue The difference between those who succeed and those who quit often comes down to one thing: Staying in the game long enough to learn. Conflict Resolution Is a Leadership Multiplier The ability to navigate difficult conversations impacts: Leadership Sales Negotiations Recruiting Team culture Learning how to handle conflict with respect and confidence can improve every area of your business.

What if the reason you're exhausted isn't because you're not doing enough... but because you're spending all your energy trying to become mediocre at things you were never meant to do? Welcome Pivoter! Most high performers spend years trying to fix weaknesses that were never meant to be strengths. We call it growth. We call it discipline. We call it "working on ourselves." But what if that's the wrong game entirely? In this episode, April challenges one of the most common myths in personal development: the idea that successful people are well-rounded. Drawing from strengths psychology, Gallup research, and real-world examples of elite performers, she explores why the path to success isn't becoming better at everything. It's becoming exceptional at the things you're naturally wired to do well. If you've been stuck trying to improve areas that drain you, this episode will help you shift from fixing to leveraging. In This Episode You Will Learn: Why the idea of being "well-rounded" may be sabotaging your success. What Strengths Psychology teaches about performance and fulfillment. Why weaknesses rarely become strengths. The hidden reason fixing weaknesses feels productive. How elite performers create leverage instead of balance. The difference between limitations and liabilities. How to design your business and life around your strengths. Why awareness is more powerful than willpower. Key Takeaways: ✅ High performers are intentionally uneven. ✅ Strengths create leverage. Weaknesses require management. ✅ Your goal isn't to become good at everything. ✅ Design beats discipline. ✅ Weaknesses become dangerous only when ignored. ✅ The fastest path to growth is amplifying what already works. Quotes: "High performers are not well-rounded. They are intentionally uneven." "Weaknesses rarely become strengths. They usually just become slightly less annoying weaknesses." "High performers don't fix themselves into success. They leverage themselves into it." "A limitation is something you're not great at. A liability is something you refuse to acknowledge." Challenge: Ask yourself: What am I trying to fix that I should be designing around? Which strength have I underused because it makes me visible? What would change if I trusted my strengths enough to build around them? Stop fixing. Start leveraging. ---------------- Want more tools to help you create momentum, clarity, and growth in your business and life? Ready to take this work beyond the podcast?

What if you're not burned out or unproductive—what if you're simply working against your natural instincts? In this episode of the Leaders of Transformation, Nicole Jansen sits down with Amy Bruske, President and Integrator of Kolbe Corp, to explore the powerful principles behind her new bestselling book, Do More, More Naturally, co-authored with David Kolbe. Amy explains why success isn't about forcing yourself to improve your weaknesses or manage your time more efficiently. Instead, it's about understanding how you're naturally wired to take action, solve problems, and make decisions. Together, Nicole and Amy discuss the often-overlooked conative part of the mind, the role of energy management, and how leaders can create thriving teams by leveraging natural strengths rather than fighting against them. Whether you're a leader, entrepreneur, or high achiever feeling stretched thin, this conversation will help you discover how to work in alignment with your instincts and create sustainable success. What We Discuss in this Episode The three parts of the mind: cognitive, affective, and conative What the Kolbe Index measures and why it differs from personality assessments Why capability and desire aren't enough for sustainable performance How natural instincts influence decision-making, problem-solving, and execution The four Action Modes and how they show up in everyday work Why procrastination may be a clue - not a character flaw How to identify the tasks that energize you versus those that drain you The connection between burnout and working against your natural strengths Why time management is often less important than energy management How leaders can build stronger teams by understanding individual strengths The difference between hiring clones and creating complementary teams Why diverse thinking styles improve innovation, adaptability, and execution How to give people freedom while maintaining accountability for results Practical ways to create a more resilient, high-performing workforce Highlights and YouTube Chapter Titles 00:00 – What If You're Not Burned Out? 02:00 – Understanding the Conative Part of the Mind 05:00 – Why Natural Instincts Matter More Than You Think 08:00 – The Four Action Modes Explained 12:00 – The Hidden Reason Behind Procrastination 15:00 – Working in Your Zone of Strength 18:00 – The Kolbe Exercise That Reveals How People Take Action 22:00 – Building Teams Like a Chess Master, Not a Checkers Player 26:00 – Why Great Leaders Focus on Strengths, Not Weaknesses 29:00 – Hiring Complements Instead of Clones 32:00 – The Power of Diverse Thinking Styles 35:00 – Time Management vs. Energy Management 39:00 – Why Certain Tasks Drain You Faster Than Others 43:00 – Doing More by Working More Naturally 46:00 – Creating Sustainable Success and Freedom to Be Yourself Episode Show Notes and Links: https://leadersoftransformation.com/podcast/leadership/553-do-more-more-naturally-with-amy-bruske/ Check out our complete library of episodes and other leadership resources here: https://leadersoftransformation.com ________

Striving to Feel Powerful meets Striving to Feel at PeaceThe Eight and Nine pairing is one of those dynamics where the differences are impossible to miss and the similarities can be completely hidden. Eights tend to be direct, decisive, and energized by challenge. Nines are steady, accommodating, and energized when everyone is getting along. But here's what most people miss: both types are deeply loyal, both are quietly protective of the people they care about, and both have a stubborn streak that isn't always visible until something important is on the line.The Eight's striving to feel strong and in control isn't aggression, but rather self-protection. They push hard because backing down feels like losing something important about themselves. The Nine's striving to feel at peace isn't necessarily passivity, but rather preservation. They accommodate because conflict feels like a genuine threat to the stability they need to function well.When those two strivings meet in a workplace, you get a dynamic that's full of potential and can also be full of landmines. The difference between the two usually comes down to whether both people understand what's actually behind the friction.The Strengths of This Pairing:The Eight generates momentum and makes the tough call; the Nine builds the consensus and brings people along. Together, they can move fast and sustainablyNines have a rare ability to receive an Eight's intensity without shutting down or mirroring it back, which often makes the Eight more effective with othersEights give Nines something they often struggle to find on their own: permission (and sometimes pressure!) to take up space and speak honestlyBoth types are fiercely loyal to their people; when this pairing trusts each other, they can create a workplace bond that runs deep Where the Potential Can Show Up:The Eight's directness can feel like an attack to a Nine striving for peace, even when zero attack was intended... and the Nine won't say anything, so resentment can buildThe Nine's tendency to go along can quietly drive an Eight up the wall, because Eights actually want real pushback. It doesn't feel safe when they can't get a read on someone.Unresolved tension looks completely different for each type: the Eight escalates, the Nine withdraws, and neither one is actually resolving anythingThe Eight reads the Nine's calm as disengagement; the Nine reads the Eight's intensity as a sign that something is already wrongReflection Question from This Episode: Where on your team is someone striving to feel strong and powerful and someone else striving to feel calm and at peace? Is the organization/team creating conditions for both of those to actually get what they need?Resources + Links:Learn more about the 3-part Dream Team Momentum program: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-team-workshopsRun your own Enneagram Workshop: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-workshop-kitConnect with Sarah on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sarahlynnwallace/Take the 2-question Enneagram quiz: enneagrammba.com/blog/enneagramtestWork with Sarah - workshops, speaking, and team facilitation: enneagrammba.com/enneagram-speakerHave a request for a future episode?

Most people plan for retirement because it's what you're supposed to do. But the real question almost no one asks first is whether the work they're doing right now is even built around their strengths in the first place. Because if it isn't, retirement won't actually fix the problem. The restlessness most retirees describe inside the first year is the same friction they had been ignoring in the years before they left. This episode walks through why retirement is a relatively new concept, what the Gallup research from Jim Harter actually shows about strengths and engagement at work, and the reframe that turns "when can I retire" into a more useful question about meaningful work and career fulfillment. It also draws on the stories of Dan Ruley, who realized fifteen years of chasing the next promotion had taken him away from the work that actually energized him, and Edna, who left a 19-year career in consumer packaged goods, joined a new organization expecting it to be better, then walked away inside a year because the role couldn't give her the autonomy she needed to do meaningful work. In this episode, we'll unpack: Why retirement is a recent invention and what that reveals about how most people think about modern work The difference between a skill and a strength, and why being exceptional at the wrong thing will still deplete you The Gallup engagement finding that people who use their strengths daily are six times more likely to be engaged at work Three questions that surface your strengths profile based on the patterns your own career has already left you Why high performers feel the strengths gap most acutely, and what designing a career around your strengths actually looks like at any stage   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

Highly sensitive people often experience anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and nervous system fatigue because they absorb more from their environments than they realize. When emotional regulation becomes difficult, it's often not because you're "too sensitive"—it's because your nervous system has been carrying more than it was meant to carry.In this guided practice episode, we move beyond understanding emotional absorption and into experiencing what it feels like to come back to yourself. Together, we'll explore a simple nervous system reset designed to help you release emotional weight, reconnect with your own experience, and create space between caring for others and carrying everything for them.You'll learn: • the difference between caring and carrying • a simple nervous system practice for returning to yourself • how to stay connected without taking responsibility for everything around youIf your nervous system has been carrying a lot lately, you may enjoy these companion Yoga Nidra practices on Insight Timer:Yoga Nidra for Nervous System Reset & Deep Rest: https://insighttimer.com/yogiranger/guided-meditations/yoga-nidra-for-nervous-system-reset-deep-rest_1Yoga Nidra for Burnout Recovery: https://insighttimer.com/yogiranger/guided-meditations/yoga-nidra-for-highly-sensitive-people-burnout-recoveryAnd if anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or absorbing other people's emotions has become a recurring pattern for you, my short course Anxiety Relief: Training Your Nervous System for Safety offers simple, practical tools to help your body feel steadier in emotional environments: https://yogiranger.com/anxiety-relief-courseNew to the podcast?

In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Skora, María José Munita and Seth “Creek” Creekmore talk about coaching Enneagram Type Eight. As this type strives to feel powerful, Type Eight can be fairly extreme in pretty much everything that they do, but they tend to end up in leadership positions. But this could mean they're great leaders or toxic ones. Mario and MJ discuss their approach to coaching this type by coming up with their own strength to match their energy.TIMESTAMPS[00:01] Intro[00:59] About Enneagram Type Eight[04:38] The Connecting Points[10:46] Strengths and weaknesses[15:41] The ATA process[18:12] Key issues[26:28] The accelerator: self-discipline[30:05] Final thoughtsConnect with us:Awareness to ActionEnneagram on DemandIG: @ataenneagrampodYouTube: ATA Podcast NetworkEmail: info@awarenesstoaction.comSend a voice message: speakpipe.com/AwarenesstoActionATA's Subtypes And Instinctual Biases Two-Day Workshop: thesubtypes.comMario Sikora:IG: @mariosikoraTikTok: @mariosikoraWeb: mariosikora.comPod: Enneagram in a MovieSubstack: mariosikora.substack.comBook: How to Think Well, and Why: The Awareness to Action Guide to Clear ThinkingMaría José Munita:IG: @mjmunitaWeb: mjmunita.comSeth "Creek" Creekmore:IG: @_creekmorePod: Fathoms | An Enneagram PodcastPod: Delusional OptimismPod: International Enneagram Association Podcast

This country does a decent job in our primary schools working with children and young adults with special needs. Certainly many improvements have been made in the last 40-50 years.  But once neurodivergent kids become adults, that support seems to vanish. Tami Gomez stepped into this large breach by launching the UC Davis Neurodiversity Coding Internship Program. This new program creates professional pathways for neurodivergent individuals by offering hands-on training, mentorship, and real-world exposure to healthcare operations, specifically in inpatient medical coding. I'm thrilled to get her back on the program to talk about this, her greatly expanded role as Executive Director, Mid Rev Cycle, HIM, Coding, CDI Programs, & Revenue Integrity, and a cutting-edge new initiative she spearheaded that's already making a big financial impact. Listen in as we discuss:  Origins of UC Davis Neurodiversity Coding Internship Program: Tami's own story of neurodivergence Getting started—funding, early struggles and sticking points, partnership with UCLA The curriculum and beyond: What are they learning, thanks to generous donations from HCPro/AHIMA, and not just education—taking students all the way through CCS credentialing and job placement Reception from attendees and the industry at large What makes neurodivergent people uniquely able to code, and their real struggles interviewing and entering the workforce Tami's new busy day job as Executive Director, Mid Rev Cycle.

If you think you need 100,000 followers before you can make real money as a creator, this episode will change your perspective.In this conversation with Chelsea Clark, we break down how creators actually operate — the strengths that set them apart, the blind spots that hold them back, and why a massive audience isn't the golden ticket everyone thinks it is. We're talking about how to identify what you're naturally good at, how to lean into it strategically, and how to monetize effectively without chasing vanity metrics.Because the creators who build sustainable income aren't always the biggest — they're the ones who know how to use what they already have.If you're ready to stop obsessing over follower count and start building real leverage, this one's for you.********************************DISCLAIMER: This audio and description may contain affiliate links, which means that if you click on one of our recommended products, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.

After pulling back the curtain on the brutal stomach virus that hit the final leg of their European tour last week, Lauren and Trey are back to talk about the good stuff. In this episode, they recount Trey's first-ever trip overseas; a three-country whirlwind through Paris, Amsterdam, and Barcelona (with a final stop in the quiet beach town of Sitges) in April and May of 2026.Moving past the sickness, they unpack the deep relational gold found on the road: why making adult friendships is a secret weapon for a thriving sex life, how to perfectly balance relationship logistics based on individual strengths, and what happened when they stepped into a historic Parisian erotic theater that completely shattered their American-bred biases.If you and your partner are trying to navigate your own travel triggers, step out of isolating relationship bubbles, or unpack your old scripts around pleasure, intimacy, and control, you don't have to do it alone.Ready to start building a resilient, well-defined partnership?Request your free 15-minute consult at sexedforyou.com/freeconsult.About ThemLauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia, where Lauren owns and operates Sex Ed for You.

This conversation with Adam Gould, Senior Vice President, BWE, offered 5 simple lessons: 1. Lean into strengths. Know your lane and build on it. 2. Communicate clearly. Complex ideas only matter if others understand them. 3. Control the controllable. Forget the noise—focus on what's in front of you. 4. Pause before reacting. A breath can shift the outcome. 5. Stay consistent. Be genuine, steady, and always learning. Success isn't about constant reinvention. It's about knowing what you're good at and sharpening it daily.

It's easy to give up on people when they disappoint us, miss expectations, or don't seem to fit the role they're in. But great leaders know people are rarely just "good" or "bad" at work. More often, they're either understood or misunderstood, positioned well or placed poorly. What would change if you started looking for people's potential before writing them off?   In this episode, host Donald Miller talks with Brian Hooks, CEO of Stand Together and co-author of Believe in People, about how leaders can unlock more value by helping people discover and use their gifts. They discuss building stronger teams, solving social problems from the bottom up, and why believing in people may be one of the most practical leadership decisions you can make. Listen in to learn the secret to putting people in the right role so they can do their best work.   Brian's book is out now, get it here: https://www.amazon.com/Believe-People-Bottom-Up-Solutions-Top-Down/dp/1250200962   Ready to clarify your message and grow your business?

This conversation highlights a growing “capability gap” in teens, where some, often girls, are overwhelmed by pressure and perfectionism while others, often boys, are disengaged and avoidant. David and Sissy connect this to factors like digital communication, lowered relationship standards, and increased screen use, all of which can hinder resilience and healthy development. They emphasize that true capability is built through real-life challenges, responsibility, and healthy risk-taking, and encourage parents to raise expectations, foster strong relationships, teach coping skills, and create space for both rest and growth.
