Podcasts about Stronger

We've all heard jumping can help build our bones. But here's the catch: the gains don't come from the jumps; they come from how you land. This week we break down the mechanics of bone-building and how to make your skeleton stronger no matter what your age with bone health researcher Tracey Clissold, PhD. Tracey explains what it really takes to turn bone “on” with impact—and why just walking, running, or weight-bearing exercise is not enough for midlife women who want stronger skeletons. We unpack why bones respond to how you land, not just that you jump; what “bone-jarring” stiff, flat-footed landings are, and why they need to happen quickly to stimulate bone remodeling. You'll also hear success stories, including one woman who went from a hip/spine T-score of –3.8 at age 65 to out of the osteoporotic range at 70 using impact, food, and vitamin D—without medications.Tracey Clissold, PhD has over 30 years of academic experience as a lecturer and researcher in Exercise Science, Sports Nutrition and Women's Health. She is currently a lecturer at Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology in New Zealand and is a nutrition consultant for national and international athletes and coaches. Tracey completed a PhD at Auckland University of Technology on ‘The effects of an osteogenic jump-landing programme on bone health in premenopausal women,' and her research is ongoing. She and the OSTEO-GAINS team have created a Women's Bone Health Phone App which is receiving incredible attention in NZ and worldwide. Tracey is the mother of two and has previously represented New Zealand in distance running, winning several national and international marathon titles, including winning the Auckland Marathon four times.

Send us Fan MailAmerica is celebrating 250 years of freedom but what does it actually take for a nation to remain free? In this thought-provoking solo episode, Coach Chris Wilson explores the connection between personal responsibility, physical health, spiritual clarity, and the strength of a free society. He challenges listeners to consider whether a culture that is physically unhealthy, spiritually confused, and easily offended can truly sustain the liberties it has inherited. Along the way, Chris reflects on how America has changed since its founding, examining where we've grown stronger, where we've grown weaker, and why character matters more than comfort. He also shares his perspective on delayed gratification, emotional resilience, the pursuit of absolute truth, and the forgotten virtues that once defined generations of Americans. Rather than focusing solely on politics, this conversation invites listeners to look inward and examine the everyday choices that shape families, communities, and ultimately the future of our country. If you've been searching for a message that encourages courage, discipline, faith, and personal growth, this episode will challenge and inspire you. Freedom isn't sustained by laws alone, it is sustained by people willing to live with conviction, responsibility, and purpose.Time Stamps00:00 – The truth about delayed gratification0:56 – Welcome to the Strong by Design podcast!01:23 – Join host Chris Wilson for today's special solo episode04:07 – Are we too ‘soft' to stay free?06:50 – Hidden connection between fitness and freedom10:00 – Where personal responsibility meets political freedom12:49 – Finding absolute truth in a confused world15:57 – What real peace actually looks like (where it comes from)20:03 – How to master your emotional control23:53 – Is modern America stronger, weaker, or different?31:00 – What changed since 1776?36:00 – The most dangerous narrative threatening our culture41:10 – How to protect what actually matters43:50 – Rediscovering forgotten values48:13 – The single virtue we lost along the way51:00 – Six essential traits for the next generation53:00 – The dark side of "winning at all costs"55:40 – What it really takes to keep our freedom1:00:00 - Share, rate & review the Strong by Design podcast!Resources:Unoffendable the bookConnect with Coach Chris:InstagramSupport the showConnect w/ Critical Bench: YoutubeFacebookInstagramCriticalBench.comCriticalNutritionLabs.comStrongByDesignPodcast.com

As America's population ages, preventing falls is becoming one of public health's most urgent challenges. In this episode, Amy Ciarlo, senior analyst for Chronic Disease Risk Factors at ASTHO, talks about why fall prevention requires more than clinical care alone. She discusses how the CDC's STEADI framework helps healthcare providers identify and reduce fall risk, why tai chi and evidence-based community programs A Matter of Balance are essential partners in prevention, and how stronger connections between healthcare systems and community organizations can create lasting improvements. Ciarlo also shares lessons from Iowa and Oklahoma, where sustainable partnerships, referral networks, and coordinated planning are helping older adults stay healthy, independent, and safe.Prioritizing Community-Clinical Linkages to Prevent Falls in Older Adults | ASTHOVoices From the Field: Public Health Success Stories | ASTHOLeveraging Partnerships to Shape Funding and Policy Across Public Health Issues | ASTHO

Samantha Campbell, Senior Director of Field Services at Brightstar Lottery and 2025 Stand Out 50 leader, joins Sarah Nicastro to explore why mentorship is one of the most underutilized strategic tools in service leadership — including the story of reverse mentoring her CEO during a pandemic, the difference between mentors and sponsors, and how genuine one-on-one relationships drive retention and organizational change.

Are your thoughts helping you move forward, or are they quietly running your life? We talk a lot about positivity, discipline, leadership, and good habits, but very few people understand how those things actually work together. Negative thoughts can feel true simply because they show up fast. Bad habits can undo years of progress. Leaders can have a great vision and still lose their team because they do not communicate, connect, or create trust. And being hardworking is not always enough if people do not want to follow you. This matters because success is shaped by what you believe, what you repeat, and how you show up around other people. Real confidence comes from learning how to challenge your own thinking, remove friction before a habit begins, communicate with clarity, and become the kind of person who strengthens the environment instead of being controlled by it. Positivity is a skill. Likability is a skill. Leadership is a skill. And all of them can be practiced. Jon Gordon is one of the most influential leadership authors and speakers in the world. He has worked with CEOs, professional athletes, championship teams, coaches, and major organizations across business, sports, and education. He is the author of 32 books, including The Energy Bus, The Power of Positive Leadership, The Coffee Bean, and his latest book, The Power of Positive Habits. His work focuses on helping people build stronger mindsets, better habits, healthier cultures, and teams that perform at a higher level. What's Discussed: (03:05) How The Energy Bus went from 30 publisher rejections to selling more than three million copies. (09:05) Why positivity is a skill you develop, especially when negativity comes naturally. (14:43) How connection and disconnection affect anxiety, clarity, focus, and performance. (18:39) Why physical habits like lifting weights can build discipline, confidence, and mental strength. (24:40) How choosing one word for the year can create more focus than setting another resolution. (33:16) Why becoming a better leader starts with addressing your own wounds, habits, and mindset. (36:21) How communication gaps create negativity and confusion inside teams. (37:46) The culture-building question every leader should ask before hiring someone. (43:16) How the "habit before the habit" removes friction and makes consistency easier. (45:43) Why one destructive habit can undermine all the positive habits you are trying to build. (01:03:37) Why you should talk to yourself instead of automatically listening to every negative thought. (01:05:15) Why optimism may matter even more than discipline. (01:06:39) How likability helps leaders challenge people, build trust, and demand more from their teams.   Thank You to Our Sponsors!

Isaac Stone Fish, author of America Second: How America's Elites Are Making China Stronger, investigates how American political, corporate, and cultural elites have become deeply entangled with the Chinese Communist Party(CCP) since the 1970s. He identifies Henry Kissinger as the most influential figure in this relationship, alleging that Kissinger's consulting model prioritized personal profit and CCP interests over American national security. The book also critiques the Bush and Clinton families for their roles in romancing Beijing and facilitating China's entry into the WTO. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the self-censorship of Hollywood, where studios now reflexively avoid critical portrayals of China to maintain market access. Stone Fish details how the CCP uses "psychological manipulation" to force apologies from executives like Michael Eisner and to silence stars like Richard Gere. This influence extends to sports, highlighted by LeBron James' criticism of Daryl Morey for supporting democracy in Hong Kong. Stone Fish argues that while trade was initially sold as a means to democratize China, it has instead empowered a more authoritarian regime under Xi Jinping. He warns that the CCP's success in using American "interlocutors" and "friends" has allowed it to pursue genocide in Xinjiang and aggressive "wolf warrior" diplomacy with minimal resistance from the West's most powerful institutions. He urges a new consensus to address the national security and ethical risks posed by these ties. (4)1935 Beijing

In this episode of Passion, Purpose, and Possibilities, I sit down with Nicole Zapoli, a professional fitness and wellness coach, owner of NZ Fitness, author of Live Fit From the Inside Out: The Six Shifts to Living Your Strongest, Healthiest, and Happiest Life, and mom of two.  With over 25 years of experience, a pro card in natural bodybuilding, and a background ranking among the top 5% of CrossFit Games Open athletes, Nicole breaks down what it truly takes to build holistic health from the ground up. Together, we explore how early childhood athletics built her lifelong discipline, why physical movement and mindset shifts are more powerful than just talking through problems, and how simple daily habits can transform your health and mindset.   In this episode, we discuss: How an eight-year-old Nicole dressed up for Career Day with a vision to become a coach and gym owner How childhood gymnastics built early resilience, body respect, and physical confidence Why early open conversations about eating disorders helped Nicole focus on sports nutrition and proper fueling Why gymnastics provides the ultimate physical and mental foundation for all sports and life skills How parents can teach discipline and consistency to kids, even on days they don't feel like showing up The SHIFTS acronym: Sleep, Hydration, Intake, Fitness, Thoughts, and Sunshine Why thoughts and mindset are the most essential shift for creating sustainable life change Why taking physical action and moving your body rewires the brain and eases anxiety far better than passive discussion The childhood stick-shift driving lesson from Nicole's dad that inspired her book's core philosophy Nicole's upcoming 2027 fitness and yoga retreat and her ultimate dream of opening a holistic wellness ranch   “You're not gonna stay in fourth or fifth gear forever. We've gotta be able to shift down, take rest, and be able to shift back depending on where we are and where we're going.” - Nicole Zapoli   About Nicole: Nicole Zapoli is a professional fitness and wellness coach, owner of NZ Fitness, and author of "Live FIT From the Inside Out: The 6 SHIFTS to Living Your Strongest, Healthiest, and Happiest Life." With over 25 years of experience, a Pro card in natural bodybuilding (Figure & Sports Model), and ranking among the top 5% CrossFit Games Open athletes, Nicole is a leading expert in holistic wellness, having trained thousands globally. Nicole's journey began at age eight, dreaming of owning her own gym and becoming a coach. The turning point came when, at 14, training at the U.S. Olympic Training Center, she witnessed peers struggling with eating disorders, which profoundly shifted her mission to help people live healthier, happier lives beyond competition. Later, overcoming personal anxiety and imposter syndrome as a single mom and gym owner further solidified her understanding of self-worth. Through her journey, Nicole developed a unique approach to help athletes, busy parents, and professionals achieve lifelong wellness through what she calls the SHIFTS Framework.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with the final Motivate Your Monday episode and your host, Diane Wyzga. As you know, the ending of every story holds the beginning of a new one. I'm retiring 60 Seconds and Motivate Your Monday episodes. Instead of ending these changes are evolving to Begin Anew. I launched my podcast, Stories From Women Who Walk in April 2020 as a platform for conversations with women who were walking their lives until their lives were flipped upside down by something unexpected, how they met the challenges, and changed to becoming stronger, even more confident women. I loved every single moment of listening stories out of my guests! COVID flipped our lives upside down, too. We were no longer commuting to work over long distances or in cars. Who would have the time to listen to a 30 or 40-minute conversation? What to do? Pivot to 60 Seconds. No one was offering this format. Turned out that I was really good at distilling topics, ideas and stories into soundbytes to inform, illuminate, delight, and comfort my listeners. At the same time I created a Listener Location Shout-out to kick off each episode to acknowledge and thank you for listening. How did I know where you were listening? The Simplecast platform provides a global map with yellow dots that light up the villages, towns and cities where your feet touch the ground all around the world. Each shout-out included a URL linked to the location so that other listeners could “armchair travel” to that place. Imagine how much I learned about my global audience. Some 1,330 episodes and close to 250,000 plays later it's time to do something different. But what? Running like a river beneath the surface of the lived experience moments of our lives is a deeper, truer one waiting to be acknowledged. How do I acknowledge that deeper truth? What will I hear when I let my Life speak? Where will it lead me next so that I can make the transitions I seek while inviting you to come along with me on the journey? I promise you this: the voice you have come to know and trust for over 6 plus years on the airwaves, along with the stories, insights, questions and prompts that speak to each of us as if to say, “What! You, too? I thought I was the only one.” [C.S.Lewis] I'd like to focus my creative efforts on producing “Diane on Mic” short-form episodes—maybe 7 minutes or so of spoken word—for Wednesdays on Whidbey and Story Prompt Friday.

The German Air Force is currently training in northern Australia, German pilots are being trained in Perth, and a space pact is in progress. Germany is now one of Australia's closest partners. However, the country falls short against Japan when it comes to billions of dollars in contracts. - Die deutsche Luftwaffe trainiert derzeit im Norden Australiens, deutsche Flugschüler werden in Perth ausgebildet, außerdem ist ein Weltraumpakt in Arbeit. Inzwischen ist Deutschland einer der engsten Partner Australiens. Trotzdem zieht das Land gegen Japan den Kürzeren, wenn es um Milliardenaufträge geht.

Tough and Strong or weak and soft? If you are a parent, teacher, leader – no option to be weak, how to get and stay mentally and physically tough and strong for LIFE?

Could the secret to squeezing out a few extra repetitions at the gym be hiding in your sense of smell? A fascinating new study suggests that inhaling the aroma of dark chocolate before and during resistance training may help improve workout performance while reducing feelings of hunger. Although the findings are still preliminary, they add to a growing body of evidence showing that scent may influence motivation, perception of effort and even physical performance during exercise.Fitness presenter, wellness correspondent, endurance athlete, and burnout and mental fitness coach Liezel van der Westhuizen joins us to explain the science behind this emerging research. She separates fact from hype, explains why the brain and body work together more closely than many people realise, and shares what this study means for anyone looking to train smarter. From chocolate and peppermint to citrus aromas, discover how scent is becoming an unexpected area of interest in sports science while understanding why the fundamentals of fitness still matter most.

Pick up a copy of The Mental Strength Playbook. Do you think you lack willpower? Whether you can't stop snacking or you keep checking your ex's Instagram, bad habits can be tough to break. But what if willpower isn't your problem? What if it's an environmental problem that you can actually fix? Some of the things I talk about are: Why willpower is a limited resource—and how you burn through it hundreds of times a day without realizing it. The 2025 Microsoft study on how many times the average worker gets interrupted in a single day. Why the people who break bad habits don't actually have more discipline than everyone else. The simple friction tricks that make temptation harder to reach—from the cookie shelf to your saved credit card. How I keep my own phone from hijacking my writing (and why it's not about discipline at all). My client who was sure she had ADHD—and the creative 15% solution that changed her whole workday. The three simple steps to build a temptation blocker for whatever is draining your energy. Why fixing your environment is about being more present in the moments that matter.

Smart. Key. The core of a performance. While, on paper, it may not look like Kotaro Nishiyama will be key to any 2D music project he's a part of, the truth is, the groups he's a part of, without him, would sound completely unbalanced.Yes, Kotaro Nishiyama has a hidden power that he brings to his performances, and that has both made him essential for the 2D groups he's a part of and also, in his solo career, led to me labeling as a smart singer.Music suggestions:- ZOOL "4ROAR"- ZOOL "Stronger and Stronger"- QUELL "What do you see"- Kotaro Nishiyama "Time Machine"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

Key Outcomes:This podcast episode by Kyle Galaz (Poor to Pro Car Sales Training, Season 10, Episode 5) focuses on a critical leadership trap for sales managers: becoming too friendly with their sales team at the expense of accountability and results. The core message is that salespeople already have friends but lack strong leaders, and managers who prioritize being liked over being respected ultimately hurt their team's earnings and performance.Leadership over friendship: Managers must position themselves closer to the "serious/leader" side of the spectrum, not the middle.Respect is the primary goal; being liked is optional and secondary.To truly care for salespeople = make them more money, not be their buddy.Accountability dies when salespeople view their manager as a peer — they feel no consequence for goofing off or underperforming.Managers lose the ability to coach firmly after being overly friendly; switching to "boss mode" lacks credibility.Why managers fall into the trap:Miss the camaraderie after being promoted; leadership gets lonelier at higher levels.Lack of confidence in management skills — compensate by being likable.Fear of appearing "too corporate" after dealership buyouts.Overcorrecting against distant managers they experienced as salespeople.Stop joining gossip sessions — redirect energy toward calls, appointments, and productivity.Replace casual hangouts with structured one-on-ones: use downtime for walk-around practice, product knowledge, and closing drills.Create intentional distance from group hangouts; be visibly working from clock-in to clock-out.Set daily expectations, not micromanagement: assign goals (e.g., fresh ups logged, appointments set, social media updates), then check in mid-day.Hold everyone equally accountable — no favorites.Stronger culture: everyone understands their role and arrives ready to work.Higher standards: salespeople self-motivate to earn the manager's approval and recognition.Salespeople grow because someone finally holds them to a higher standard and targets (e.g., $20K/month)Manager gains more respect — not buddy-buddy texts, but genuine on-floor motivation to perform.Manager stops carrying the emotional weight of trying to be universally liked.How do managers navigate having a hard conversation with a close ally in the sales department who is underperforming without damaging the working relationship?Sales Managers: Reflect on whether friendship was chosen over leadership this month — identify 2–3 missed coaching moments.Sales Managers: Schedule structured one-on-ones during slow periods instead of defaulting to casual hangouts. 11Sales Managers: Set clear daily expectations for each salesperson and follow up mid-shift.Buy Kyle A Coffee☕️: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/poor2pro⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

This 20-minute guided progressive muscle relaxation practice takes you through two complete passes of tension and release to help your whole body settle.The first pass uses stronger contractions through the feet, legs, core, hands, arms, shoulders, and face. The second pass moves more slowly through smaller muscle groups using only a slight amount of tension, almost like going over the body with a fine-tooth comb.You can practice lying down or seated, though lying down may help you experience the full depth of the release. Close your eyes, follow the instructions, and notice the difference between tension and relaxation rather than trying to force yourself into a calm state.This guided PMR session includes:• Two full-body relaxation passes• Progressive tension and release• Feet, legs, core, arms, shoulders, neck, jaw, and face• Stronger contractions followed by subtle muscle awareness• Space to rest after the final release• A slow and gentle return to normal awarenessThis practice may be useful when you feel physically tense, overstimulated, restless, or unable to properly settle down. You can also use it before sleep, after a stressful day, or whenever your body seems to be holding onto more than your mind realizes.Never tense a muscle to the point of pain. Skip or modify any movement that does not feel safe for your body.Do not listen while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention.You did well. I'm sure we'll run into each other again soon.More from Idiot MysticWebsite: https://idiotmystic.comInstagram: @idiotmysticTikTok: @idiotmysticDiscord: https://discord.gg/dXKjhZrZmMSearch Idiot Mystic on YouTube, Spotify, and other podcast platforms for guided meditations, NSDR, sound baths, strange history, spirituality, consciousness, and whatever else we find while wandering around in here.

A book titled “How I Lost My Left Nut And Other Life Lessons” sounds like a joke until you hear the depth behind it. We sit down with Kevin Davis, founder of Maxed Out Man, to talk about the kind of resilience you can't fake, the failures you learn from in public, and why integrity is easier than maintaining a curated image for the rest of your life.Kevin lays out a simple, hard-working framework for men's personal development that connects the dots between mindset, fitness, faith, entrepreneurship, and marriage. We get into the three pillars he teaches: man (health, mindset, faith), mission (business, community, purpose), and marriage (servant leadership and pursuing your spouse with intention). If you're tired of “hustle” advice that ignores your home life, this conversation brings it back to what actually holds everything up.We also challenge the modern instincts that keep people stuck: chasing validation, consuming endless content without implementation, and defining success as money or status. Kevin shares why serving others is not just moral, it's practical, and why “fall forward” is the only way to build a life you respect. You'll hear concrete ideas you can use right now, plus where to find Maxed Out Man, the Activated Marriage Toolkit, and upcoming retreats.If this hits home, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find the message.

Send us Fan MailIn this small prospective pilot study, Adrianne and Nim explore a domain rarely discussed on rounds, how a mother's cardiovascular function in preeclampsia shapes her newborn's circulatory transition. Using maternal echo and neonatal electrical cardiometry across 13 mother-baby dyads, the authors found an inverse relationship: the worse the mother's cardiac function, the higher the neonate's cardiac output, though vascular tone barely budged. It's a compelling hypothesis about placental strain and fetal adaptation. But Nim pushes back hard on the methodology, pairing this paper with a companion study showing electrical cardiometry consistently overestimates cardiac output in neonates, and questioning why daily echoes were performed on these babies but the results never reported.----Linking maternal and neonatal circulation in preeclampsia.

You don't need a fancy gym to build stronger bones. Learn how to create a simple home osteoporosis gym with the right equipment, exercises, and strength-training strategies to support balance, posture, and fracture prevention. In this episode, I'm sharing a special interview and exercise demonstration from Joan Pagano, a renowned fitness expert and certified exercise physiologist specializing in women's health and active aging. She is also a best-selling author and has written seven books on the benefits of strength training across the decades.  Joan walks us through setting up your own home osteoporosis gym, including the equipment, exercises, and foundational movements to help strengthen the most vulnerable fracture sites: the hips, spine, and wrists. Building stronger bones doesn't require a complicated routine or an expensive gym membership. With the right exercises, proper alignment, and consistent strength training, you can improve your balance, maintain independence, and give your bones the support they need at any stage of life.   "When you do a strength training exercise for your muscles, you're also doing it for your bones." ~ Joan Pagano   In this episode: - [02:04] - Resistance training and how it helps the bones - [08:05] - At-home vs. gym-based training  - [11:02] - Essential exercises for hip, spine, and wrist strength - [17:56] - Choosing the right weights for bone health - [21:26] - Resistance bands for posture and shoulder strength - [23:04] - Strengthening the back, spine, and upper body - [27:47] - Loop bands for hip stability and balance - [32:39] - Using resistance bands for leg exercises -  [35:50] - Weighted balls and compound exercises - [39:04] - Working safely with trainers and physical therapists   Resources - Get quality supplements from Margie's Fullscript Dispensary - https://tinyurl.com/supplementsforless - Joan's Strength Training for Osteoporosis (Foundational Series): 4-Session On-Demand Class (Replay) - https://happyboneshappylife.com/strength-training-for-osteoporosis-4-week-class-replay - Joan's MORE Strength Training for Osteoporosis (Follow-up Series): 4-Session On-Demand Class (Replay) - https://happyboneshappylife.com/strength-training-for-osteoporosis-new-4-week-class - Joan's Step Training for Agility, Balance, and Bone Strength: On-Demand Class - https://happyboneshappylife.com/step-training-for-agility-balance-and-bone-strength-on-demand - Fabric resistance bands Joan recommends on Amazon -https://amzn.to/3tVuKtZ   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

If your workouts vanish the moment life gets busy, it's not because you're weak, lazy, or “bad at discipline.” It's because you're treating exercise like a choice that requires motivation.High performers do something completely different.Do you need motivation to brush your teeth?We talk about what motivation really is, and how your brain constantly runs an effort-versus-reward calculation. We get concrete with the routine that's kept me consistent with my fitness, not skipping a day for 25+ years.We  dig into the neuroscience of stress and habits, including why stress reduces goal-directed planning in the prefrontal cortex and pushes you toward automatic behaviors, meaning you don't rise to your expectations, you fall to your training AKA habits.If this helps, subscribe, share it with one person who needs it, and leave a quick review so more people can build stress-proof habits.Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina  Certified Health, Sleep, Performance & Executive Coach 360 with 18 years of experience helping people change to feel, be and do their best.

Mita wanted to know if America's sweetheart, Julia Roberts is hot or not. For her worst, Chat GPT suggested the 1996 gothic drama, "Mary Reilly" for the next movie review. Zendaya features heavier in this episode than she does in any move she appears in this year. 

Writing the strongest possible offer starts before the contract is drafted. In this episode of Best Agent Hacks, I break down the exact conversation agents should have with buyers once they decide they want to write an offer. Before jumping into price, inspections, terms, and tactics, agents need to confirm motivation, uncover concerns, and understand how badly the buyer wants the home. I walk through the five key questions agents should ask, including how buyers are feeling, how much they want the home on a 1-to-10 scale, what concerns they have, which boxes were checked, and where they feel comfortable on price. If you want to help buyers make stronger decisions, write better offers, and build trust whether they win the house or not, this episode gives you the framework.

Bloomberg reported on July 29, 2026 that UBS and Deutsche Bank delivered strong earnings. UBS under CEO Sergio Ermotti has focused on integrating Credit Suisse and expanding wealth management, supporting cross-border services and selective credit. Deutsche Bank led by CEO Christian Sewing continues its restructuring with emphasis on fixed income, currencies, and corporate transaction services. Stronger bank profits can influence lending standards, underwriting capacity, and capital markets activity across Europe and for U.S. clients. Founders should benchmark credit terms across multiple banks, evaluate fixed versus floating-rate exposure, and maintain documented hedging policies for euro and Swiss franc flows. Tighter compliance after 2023 requires up-to-date corporate records and time for onboarding and amendments.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

This news packed episode opens with an extensive discussion about alleged illegal fishing activities conducted by vessels linked to the Chinese Communist Party. The Senator argues that Chinese distant-water fishing fleets operate on a massive scale, engaging in illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing that harms marine ecosystems, depletes fish populations, damages local fishing industries, and relies on forced labor practices. He describes efforts to combat these operations through sanctions and increased Coast Guard monitoring. The conversation then shifts to U.S. politics, focusing on the perceived rise of socialist and progressive influence within the Democratic Party. Ted and Ben discuss polling on socialism and reveal policy positions associated with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), arguing that the movement is becoming increasingly influential in Democratic primary elections. The final segment examines fundraising and management challenges at the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Using an article from The New York Times, Sen Cruz and Ben describe internal disputes, cash flow concerns, political leadership issues, and fundraising disadvantages compared to Republicans ahead of upcoming midterm elections.

Are you overwhelmed by all the self-improvement advice out there? Every book, every podcast, every social media post is telling you a different thing you should be doing and all those things might leave you feeling exactly the same as when you started. My guest today has spent the last decade interviewing more than 700 top performers to figure out what actually moves the needle. His book has hundreds of strategies, but I picked out the five that work best for anyone who wants to build confidence, reduce anxiety, or become a stronger version of themselves. My guest is Ryan Hawk, host of The Learning Leader Show and USA Today bestselling author. His new book is The Price of Becoming. Some of the things we discuss are: Why confidence comes from evidence and how it transfers to every other area of your life Why it's okay to copy other people when you're starting out (and the surprising fact about The Beatles that proves it). Curiosity as a skill disguised as a personality trait and why Ryan says it might be his number one love language. The line Ryan's dad said that reframes almost every anxious thought The Adam Sandler story about the professor who told him he'd never make it and the surprising way Sandler chose to remember him The difference between "clean fuel" and "dirty fuel" The three journaling prompts Ryan uses every night to compound growth over time The Therapist's Take: M quick take on how to apply each strategy starting today Related Episodes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 248 — The 3 Words That Will Make You Mentally Stronger ⁠⁠⁠⁠330 — The Real Reason Your Coping Skills Aren't Helping (It's Not You) Links & Resources The Price of Becoming Connect with the Show Buy a copy of⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with Amy on Instagram —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AmyMorinAuthor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sign Up for My Newsletter —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amymorinlcsw.com/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sponsors Helix Sleep —Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠helixsleep.com/STRONGER⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get 20% off sitewide   AirDoctor — Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AirDoctorPro.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and use promo code STRONGER to get UP TO $300 off today!

Summer is a season of family gatherings, vacations, barbecues, road trips, and time with loved ones. These moments provide something our busy lives often lack: special opportunities to strengthen the bonds that unite us.  Stronger connections start when we make the commitment to quality time. Families flourish when we make time for one another. Just as God desires that we grow in relationship with him, he wants us to grow in relationship as brothers and sisters. Through shared experiences, conversations, laughter, and relaxation together, we can grow in love and appreciation for each other.   As you enjoy this summer season, cherish the gifts of family and friends, strengthen the relationships that matter most, and spend quality time with those you love and stay connected with God and one another.  

The weaker sex? The fairer sex? The female body has often been viewed as less strong and less powerful than that of men. Datshiane Navanayagam meets two female scientists who are challenging that assumption. They reveal the ways in which women's bodies actually come out on top.Starre Vartan is an Australian science journalist, based in America. In her book The Stronger Sex she explores the different areas where women have the physical edge over men, from endurance events to immune response.Marlo Möller is Professor of Molecular Biology and Human Genetics at Stellenbosch University in South Africa. Her research explores why women appear to be better at fighting off and surviving diseases like tuberculosis.Produced by Hannah Sander(Image: (L) Starre Vartan, credit Starre Vartan.

Do you ever feel like everyone else is a few steps ahead of you? Maybe you thought you'd have the job, the house, the relationship, or the retirement account figured out by now—and the fact that you don't feels like proof you've fallen behind. It's easy to feel like everyone else is doing better and you can't catch up. But there are some strategies that can help you feel better about wherever you are right now. Some of the things I talk about are: Why the word "behind" is the thing that trips us up—and the question that changes everything. The "social clock" researchers have identified, and the surprising finding about what actually causes people distress. The moment that completely shattered the timeline for me—and left me feeling fifty years ahead of schedule. The first move to make when you feel behind The Holocaust survivor who published her first book at 89, her second at 92, and kept going until 96. Why there's no single racetrack—and what to ask yourself the next time the feeling creeps back in.

In this episode, I sit down with Ashley Thomas to talk about the leadership shifts that help you move from reactive chaos to sustainable success. We break down why discipline and clear expectations create more freedom, the ways poor retention and people-pleasing are costing your business, and why being the "cool boss" without structure creates confusion and resentment on your team. Ashley also shares her Leadership Compass framework for defining your North Star, turning your values into behaviors your team can actually follow, and creating a culture where accountability starts with you.
