Welcome to Day 9 of the Young with CJ program, where we're turning your bedroom into a true sanctuary for sleep and recovery. In this episode, CJ unpacks two powerful (and often overlooked) sleep upgrades: aromatherapy and reducing EMF (electromagnetic field) exposure. These small, intentional shifts can dramatically improve your quality of sleep, stress levels, and even support fat loss—without the need for pills or gadgets.What You'll Learn:Aromatherapy: More Than Just a Pleasant Scent Essential oils don't just smell good—they interact directly with your limbic system, the part of your brain that regulates emotions, memory, and hormones. When used before bed, certain oils can calm your nervous system, reduce stress, and promote deeper sleep.CJ's top essential oils for sleep and stress:Lavender – reduces anxiety, lowers heart rateChamomile – calming, promotes relaxationYlang Ylang – may reduce blood pressure and soothe tensionBest ways to use:Add 5–10 drops in a diffuserUse pillow sprays or apply diluted oil to neck or feetAdd essential oils to a warm bath before bedEMFs & Sleep: The Hidden Disturbance Your phone, Wi-Fi, and screens may be quietly disrupting your body's melatonin production, increasing stress at the cellular level, and throwing off your circadian rhythm.CJ explains how EMFs:Disrupt your ability to fall asleep and stay asleepLower cellular communication and hormone balanceTrigger hunger, reduce fat-burning, and increase stressSimple solutions to reduce EMFs at night:Switch off your Wi-Fi before bedKeep devices at least 6 feet away from your bedUse airplane mode on your phone overnightUnplug electronics not in useTry CJ's iPhone red light trick to reduce blue light exposureKey Takeaways:Scents influence your brain. Use calming oils to signal your body it's time to rest.EMFs sabotage melatonin. Less EMF = better sleep and hormone function.Your bedroom should be a recovery zone. Not a tech hub.Sleep drives fat loss and energy. Protect it like your most valuable asset.One new habit can reset your nights. Try one tonight and feel the difference.5 Things You Can Start Doing Today:Use lavender or chamomile essential oil in a diffuser 30 minutes before bed.Switch your Wi-Fi off before you sleep.Put your phone on airplane mode and place it across the room.Unplug any electronic devices near your bed.Enable red light mode on your phone or use dim red lights in your bedroom.Final Thought: Better sleep isn't complicated—it's just often overlooked. Aromatherapy and EMF reduction are low-effort, high-impact tools to support your recovery, energy, and longevity.

Spoiler: it's not for the faint of heart.But it's not all science talk. Dr. Rabin gets real about the entrepreneurial rollercoaster, the importance of accountability and leadership, and why scheduling play is just as important as scheduling meetings. He breaks down why gratitude is one of the most powerful tools for happiness, and how aligning your life with purpose and play can enhance your performance—not drain it.Here are a few big takeaways from the episode:Apollo Neuro isn't just a gadget—it's a science-backed tool that can improve your HRV and help you sleep better, feel calmer, and perform at your peak.Heart rate variability is a key signal for how well your body is adapting to stress, and learning to regulate it is a total game-changer.Entrepreneurship is about ownership and communication—especially in the new remote-work era.Play is not optional.

To celebrate our epic 700th episode, we're going behind the scenes with Troy Trewin, Founder of Grow A Small Business, shares his journey from burnout to balance, highlighting his leadership at Lark Distillery and the New Zealand Whisky Collection. He reveals how a life-changing moment in Bali inspired him to create the free Transform Your Performance course.  The course has already helped over 100 small business owners and their teams work smarter, reduce stress, and reclaim their time. Troy discusses practical productivity tips, mindset shifts, and the power of simplicity in business. This episode is packed with real stories, proven tools, and powerful insights for every small business owner. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Ditch Morning Meetings – Protect Your Power Hours: Troy swears by keeping his mornings meeting-free to do two deep 90-minute focus sprints. Your brain is sharpest early—use it to tackle the big stuff, not check calendars! Hustle Less, Achieve More: Forget the hustle culture hype. Productivity isn't about grinding—it's about building smart, lasting habits that let you work less and get better results. Say No, or Not Yet – Prioritize Like a Pro: When everything is a priority, nothing is. Learning to say “no” or “not yet” helps you focus on what actually moves the needle in your business. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Inbox Lockdown = Game Changer: Troy uses a tool to block email access during work blocks—because "just checking" often turns into hours lost. Control your inbox before it controls you. Use the 'Success List' – Not a To-Do List: Forget endless to-do lists. Troy's simple 2-page “Success List” system helps you plan your week with intention, reduce stress, and finish each day with purpose. Burnout Isn't a Badge – It's a Warning Sign: Troy hit burnout four times before realizing something had to change. Your business won't thrive if you're running on empty—prioritize balance, or you'll pay the price. One action small business owners can take: According to Troy Trewin, one action small business owners can take is to block out their mornings for deep, distraction-free work—no meetings, no emails—just 90-minute sprints focused on high-impact tasks that drive real results.

Most truckers didn't sign up for this job to spend hours haggling with brokers or chasing paperwork. They want to drive, make money, and get home, without the constant back-office grind.That's where Hey Bubba AI comes in. It's a multilingual voice assistant that books loads, negotiates rates, and handles the admin work so drivers can focus on what they actually enjoy: driving and earning.On this episode of ThinkFreight, I sat down with Tapan Chaudhari, the founder of Bubba AI, to dig into how AI is changing the game for owner-operators and small fleets. We talk about why so much trucking tech feels disconnected from drivers, how Bubba is different, and where AI could take the industry over the next five years.If you've been skeptical about AI in trucking, or you're just curious how tech can make life on the road easier (without replacing drivers), this one's worth a listen.-----------------------------------

It is 100% true that small farms can be profitable however small farms increasingly need to do further processing. Just selling vegetables to a Farmers Market may no longer be a sufficient business model. Just a single farmer by themselves faces a very hard farm life. To be the best that it can be a single farmer will be better with a group or a couple people focused on making it happen. Michael Kilpatrick is a farmer and educator who is passionate about providing farmers with tools and systems that they need to thrive. He is host of the Thriving Farmers podcast, founder of Small Farm University, and runs his own farm operation with his wife Savanah and their 4 children at the Farm on Central in Southwest Ohio. www.growingfarmers.com
