How do we help kids and teens when social media is fueling a resurgence of body image issues and eating disorders? In this special conversation, Lia's daughter, Julia Parzyck shares her personal and professional journey navigating the tumultuous landscape of body acceptance in a world obsessed with appearance. The episode explores the influence of social media platforms, like TikTok and Instagram, and the impact they have on pediatric mental health and body positivity. Listeners will discover practical parenting strategies rooted in empathy, compassion, and my own past mistakes. Body acceptance is an ongoing journey, not a destination. Are we ready to support the next generation in building resilience against the ever-present pressures of body image issues?[00:01 - 06:22] The Shifting Landscape of Body Image and Social MediaExplores how diet culture and body expectations have worsened for teenagers in the age of TikTok and “skinny talk,” surpassing early 2000s pressures.The proliferation of pro-eating disorder content, now openly accessible through social media, and how it's masked as harmless tips.Contrasts curated body-positive environments with the harsher realities faced by today's youth on unchecked platforms.Highlights the rise of the “skinny talk” hashtag/movement and its troubling normalization of disordered behaviors and comparison.[06:23 - 11:39]Owning Softness: From Childhood Stories to Social AdvocacyJulia redefines “softness” as a source of strength, both in body and emotions, coining the phrase “soft body baddie” for her community.Childhood anecdotes—ranging from fashion flair to forming the hilariously named "labia band"—remind listeners of the roots of self-expression.Explores how embracing personal quirks and struggles, like anxiety and neurodivergence, leads to greater empathy in work with children and coaching.Reflects on how family dynamics and navigating outspoken personalities shape resilience, communication, and mutual growth.[11:40 -19:47]Healing, Boundaries, and Building a Modern IdentityDiscusses the transformative impact of family therapy, learning emotional independence, and accepting that parents can't always “fix” pain.Julia's journey through heartbreak (a called-off wedding) reveals the non-linear, ongoing process of healing and redefining self-worth.Explores the leap of faith required to pursue a career in body-positive coaching and online content, with all its uncertainties.Highlights the value of embracing risk, letting go of the need to “do it all over,” and recognizing how adversity can fuel growth and new purpose.[19:48 - 42:06] Compassion, Societal Pressures, and Looking ForwardShares insights on how political landscapes influence fashion, body ideals, and the subtle ways women are controlled through image and expectation.Resist setting rigid future goals, focus instead on finding joy, balance, and meaning in work and life, post-trauma.Stresses that body image work is lifelong, and that society will likely never “fix” its obsessions—progress is about grace, not perfection.Leaves listeners with the message that taking up space, nurturing empathy, and living for personal fulfillment, not external approval, is an act of quiet revolution.[29:23 - 35:21] Dr. G's TakeAwaysConnect with Julia Parzyck Instagram: Fit Fat and All That Here are some more episodes...

One Senior Care, based in Erie, PA, serves seniors in Pennsylvania, eastern Kentucky and soon-to-be northeastern Ohio. Because its population base is rural, one of the unique services One Senior Care provides is driving to seniors' homes and transporting them to PACE services, Chief Operating Officer Craig Worland said. One Senior Care's promise is to do what it can to let seniors stay in their homes and communities. PACE is a bipartisan issue, Worland believes. Republicans and Democrats as well as bureaucrats have a favorable view of PACE. With the restructuring of the Department of Health and Human Services, oversight of PACE likely will move to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI). Worland is not so concerned about where PACE is housed, but he wants the government to be aware that PACE is “not an experiment.” Barriers — particularly enrollment ones — need to be removed to grow the program, he said. PACE organizations, as opposed to states, should control eligibility to cut down on red tape and facilitate easier enrollment into the program, he said. He'd like to see every state offer PACE in coming years.Follow us on social media:X: @McKHomeCareFacebook: McKnight's Home CareLinkedIn: McKnight's Home CareInstagram: mcknights_homecareFollow One Senior Care on social media:LinkedIn: One Senior CareShow contributors:McKnight's Home Care Editor Liza Berger; Craig Worland, Chief Operating Officer, One Senior Care

Nathan St Cyr is the co-founder of Howzit Hostels, a fast-growing hospitality brand based in the Hawaiian Islands. Within three years, Howzit Hostels earned the 2024 award for the number one small hostel in North America. With two current locations totaling approximately 140 beds, Nathan and his partner are on a mission to scale to 400 beds in Hawaii and 4,000 beds across North America—all while elevating the hostel experience into a modern, community-focused hospitality model.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Nathan originally trained in multifamily investing but pivoted to hostels after uncovering a major market gap in the U.S. hostel space. Howzit Hostels focuses on elevating the guest experience with boutique design, community engagement, and Instagram-worthy moments. The hostel model allows for multiple revenue levers through room configuration, occupancy flexibility, and curated guest experiences. Their approach targets the Gen Z traveler, who craves connection, shared spaces, and social currency through experiences. Success comes from understanding your avatar, hiring expert operators, and being fully committed to your vision.     Topics From Multifamily to Hospitality Pivot Started with multifamily training, searching for apartment deals in Hawaii. First property search introduced the idea of hostels, which led to a deep dive into the business model. Discovered that hostels offered a more flexible, high-margin opportunity than traditional apartment investing in their market. What Is a Hostel Today? Challenges the outdated U.S. perception of hostels as cheap or dirty backpacker lodging. Focuses on community-based experiences with boutique design, common spaces, guided activities, and both shared and private rooms. Targets modern travelers who value shared experiences over isolation. Creating a Scalable, Passion-Driven Asset Hostels allow room configurations that multiply income potential—such as converting a single hotel room into a shared six-bed space. Hostel occupancy is measured per bed, allowing for higher flexibility and revenue optimization. Deep understanding of their target audience (Gen Z) shapes branding, amenities, and experiences. Mindset, Mentorship, and Execution Emphasizes hiring experts to validate business plans and fill skill gaps, including European hostel consultants and hospitality designers. Stresses the importance of passion, perseverance, and the willingness to go “all in” on your vision. Leverages lessons from a background in sales leadership, focusing on rejection as a temporary obstacle and belief as the driving force.

Opening Bible verse: Mark 16:1-8 Does the constant tracking of money stress you out? Do you feel the resentment building when you see your spouse buying a bagel even if the money is there? I felt the same for years. While we have to know where our money is going, at some point, we can ease up on the tracking. How do we do this? First, you have to make sure your monthly spending is in line with recommended percentages. Fixed Costs (the bills) are about 50-60%. Your long term investments (retirement) is about 10% and your short term savings (emergency fund/sinking funds) are 5-10%. This leaves you about 20-35% for everything else (discretionary spending). For me, this is grocery money and anything else for the family. These are the only two categories I now track in my spending app. I use Everydollar app. Find the one that works for you. Twice per month I look at the bank balances and savings accounts. Otherwise, I trust that our money is going where it's supposed to go.  Some months are more expensive than others, so you can begin to track your monthly spending in the budgeting app. It will allow you to prepare for next year. You'll be able to better predict what you'll spend and reduce as many surprises as possible. Your money should be boring, that's the goal. Set it and forget it!

You didn't have to be able to read. There were opportunities to put things in language. It was starting to get back to the roots again of how information was kind of pulling down some of the gatekeeping." - Susan Westwater [08:04 → 08:35] On the Evolution of Brand Personality: "These were all really interesting, rich experiences that come into play, which is what really geeked me out. Now, Scott was a lot. I would say I was more of the heart and emotion of the possible. I would say Scott was much more of the rational nut to put to." - Susan Westwater [08:35 → 08:51] On the Accessibility of Conversational AI: "It reduces friction. It removes literacy out of the equation. You don't have to know how to use a computer. Literally, as long as you can ask a question, you can get some sort of response." - Scot Westwater [10:08 → 10:21] On the Versatility of Conversational AI: "Chatbots are part of conversational, voice assistants are part of it. Voice Mode and ChatGPT, they're all different flavors of it. You're physically using your voice to ask a question and getting some sort of response from a system." - Scot Westwater [10:34 → 10:49] On the Importance of Intentionality in AI Voice: "We have to be intentional then, by the way, about who it is we want our audiences to speak with. And that can work from a B2B perspective just as much as it can work from an external customer engagement perspective." - Susan Westwater [17:02 → 17:17] On the Practicality of AI in Business: "In practical business you probably don't, you probably don't need AGI, quite frankly. A lot of what we're talking about is automating basic business processes, whether you're using AI or other tools." - Scot Westwater [1:01:22 → 1:01:37] On Getting Started with AI: "Do what you did and just get started now, whether it's learning or experimenting or use case identification, like, just start. There is so much fear out there. There's so much, quite frankly, misinformation related to AI and it's just a matter of getting in there, getting comfortable, getting those quick wins, seeing how it can actually help your process." - Scot Westwater [1:05:28 → 1:05:52] Resources and Links Dan Nestle Inquisitive Communications | Website The Trending Communicator | Website Communications Trends from Trending Communicators | Dan Nestle's Substack Dan Nestle | LinkedIn Dan Nestle | Twitter/X Susan and Scot Westwater Susan Westwater | LinkedIn Scot Westwater | Linkedin Pragmatic Digital | Website Voice Marketing: Harnessing the Power of Conversational AI to Drive Customer Engagement | Amazon Timestamped key moments from this episode (as generated by Fireflies.ai)

As a life coach, I am always diving into relationship conflicts people struggle with - that often begin with something like "He should just KNOW that I want quality time with him in the evenings" or "It really hurts when my husband doesn't think to arrange anything for my birthday". Many people feel frustrated or resentful in their marriage because their spouses aren't meeting their needs they way they expected they would. So they double down on trying to control or change them so they can try to feel better. Only problem is, marriage suddenly turns into a long list of obligations to try to make each other happy. It's not a fun time for anyone. I used to feel caught in that same struggle. Until I learned a life changing concept called "the manual" that I teach in this episode and why the best thing you can ever do for your relationship is to throw out your manual completely. Loving what is - that's what true happiness and freedom is.
