AJ and Johnny sit down with Daniel Coyle, bestselling author and culture researcher, to explore what it actually means to flourish — and why flourishing is never a solo pursuit. Drawing from his research into thriving communities around the world, Daniel explains why growth, meaning, and fulfillment emerge from connection, friction, and shared purpose rather than individual achievement. They unpack how modern life fragments attention, why efficiency and isolation undermine belonging, and how small, human-scale practices — from rituals to shared meals to “yellow door” moments — can reawaken connection. This conversation reframes success away from optimization and toward aliveness, showing how community, presence, and intentional messiness create lives and workplaces that truly thrive.

Written communication strips away tone, facial expression, and nuance — which is why texts and emails are so easy to misinterpret. Sarcasm, humor, and intent can get lost, sometimes with awkward or costly consequences. This episode begins with how emojis can restore subtlety to digital communication — if you know which ones actually help and which ones make things worse. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0747563221002946?utm Some of the greatest ideas — and even entire careers — were never planned. Potato chips, penicillin, and Post-it Notes were all accidents. Success often comes not from careful design, but from noticing opportunities hidden inside unexpected events. Innovation expert Paul Sloane explains how breakthroughs really happen and how you can position yourself to recognize them when they appear. Paul is author of The Art of Unexpected Solutions (https://amzn.to/3ZeKEvw). People naturally gravitate toward others who think, act, and believe the same way they do. We form tribes — social, political, professional — and those bonds can feel deeply comforting. But this instinct also shapes how we see outsiders and influences cooperation, conflict, and culture itself. Cultural psychologist Michael Morris explores why humans evolved this instinct and whether it ultimately helps or harms us. He is author of Tribal: How the Cultural Instincts That Divide Us Can Help Bring Us Together (https://amzn.to/4pJ6K4n). And finally, weight loss is one of the most common New Year's resolutions — and one of the quickest to be abandoned. Research suggests that a handful of surprisingly small habits can dramatically improve your chances of sticking with it. We wrap up with what actually works. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34259635/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS SHOPIFY: In 2026, stop waiting and start selling with Shopify!

The internet is full of hate messages... but, can you turn hate into success on social media? On this episode of The Double Cleanse, James and Robert are diving deep into online negativity! Are internet users just getting meaner? James and Robert dive into why TikTok comments feel more vicious than traditional YouTube hate, the rise of "rage baiting" as a hobby and how the algorithm encourages negativity for engagement (you too, can turn a hate comment into viral content!).

Success isn't about willpower, it's about designing a system that works for who you actually are, not just who you want to be.In this solo episode, George pulls back the curtain on the real reason most people fail to follow through on their goals.

Implant placement is one thing, but making sure those implants survive years of chewing forces is another. In this episode, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes back Florida general dentist Dr. Vic Martel to dive deep into occlusion from an implant perspective. In today's conversation, Dr. Martel explains why implant occlusion is often even more critical than occlusion on natural teeth, how uneven load sharing leads to problems like loose screws, chipped porcelain, bone loss, and even loss of integration, and why surgeons are ultimately at the mercy of their restoring dentists' occlusal skills. He discusses practical guidelines for single posterior implants, angled implants in full-arch cases, maxillary second molars, anterior implants, and zirconia hybrids, as well as how to check occlusion correctly in centric, excursions, and with the patient both reclined and upright. Dr. Martel also shares how to manage bruxers, when to splint restorations, why screws need to be replaced after loosening, and ways frequent maintenance and clear patient instructions can prevent many complications before they start. Tune in now!Key Points From This Episode:How Dr. Martel defines occlusion as “load sharing” in the context of implant dentistry.Why occlusion is critical for natural teeth and how uneven load sharing leads to failures.Hear how to set occlusion for an implant using shim stock in normal closure and clench.Explore how to manage axial and non-axial loading on angled implants in full-arch cases.Steps for checking occlusion and why screw-retained restorations have become his standard.Discover common reasons for loose screws and why the screw often needs to be replaced.Steps for navigating microtrauma on implants, patients who brux, and splint restorations.Typical reasons why certain implants fail and guidelines for anterior implant occlusion.Find out how to distribute forces across implant-supported anterior bridges to avoid load.Unpack how the shift from acrylic hybrids to zirconia has changed occlusal schemes. Learn about the complications from occlusion and why it should be checked frequently.What to tell patients about soreness, looseness, night guards, and regular maintenance. Dr. Martel's final takeaways for preventing occlusion-related implant problems.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Victor Martel on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/victor-martel-dmd-fagd-91431922/ Dr. Victor Martel on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/drvicmartel/ Dr. Victor Martel Email Address — vicmartel@gmail.com Dr. Victor Martel Phone Number — 561 602 7222 Martel Academy — https://martelacademy.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Success looks different for everyone, but comparison often convinces us we're behind.

We focus on redefining success in a way that protects your mental health and aligns with your values.
In this deeply bitter sweet episode, I'm sharing what's been on my heart as I return from maternity leave and step into a new season. One that's asking for greater clarity, deeper discernment, and a willingness to let go of what no longer aligns. Like many high-performing entrepreneurs, I've felt the fatigue that comes from constantly creating, pushing, and producing without pause. And in this space of reflection, I've realized: true leadership requires space.That's why I've made the decision to take a sabbatical from the podcast. Not from the mission, not from the calling, but from the pace. This pause is making room for authorship, family, and the next evolution of how I'm meant to lead and serve. I'm still here, still guiding visionary founders through the Your Big Next Operating System, and I'll be back when it's time.My hope is that this episode gives you permission to reflect on what you may need to release, realign, or reimagine. Sometimes the most strategic move is a sacred pause. And when we make room, the right next thing always finds us.Resources from this episode:Your Big Next - The Book is Coming SOON! https://www.yourbignextbook.com Join My Email List to Stay in Touch https://luminaryleadershipco.com/insiderThe Big Next Operating System https://luminaryleadershipco.com/operatingsystemSubscribe on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@elizhartkeShow notes: https://luminaryleadershipco.com/episode311Connect with me:Website: https://luminaryleadershipco.com/If there's a topic, a question or a guest you want to hear on the show or an idea you have for us, just reach out and share that at marketing@luminaryleadershipco.com.

Send us a textIn a culture obsessed with optimization, control, and staying positive at all costs, emotional numbness has quietly become a survival strategy. In this episode of Evolve Ventures Tech, we sit inside the tension most people avoid, the moments where discomfort, grief, and unprocessed emotion get pushed aside in the name of productivity, resilience, or growth.We challenge the assumption that not feeling is strength and expose the long-term cost of emotional suppression on the body, the nervous system, and the life you are building. This episode holds space for what happens when avoidance looks functional, when “doing well” becomes another way to run, and when emotional signals are ignored until they demand attention.This is not about intensity. It is about honesty, capacity, and what it actually means to stay alive to your own experience in a world that rewards disconnection.Here are the related episodes, each one builds on today's conversation:#453 | What it REALLY Feels Like with High Quality Therapy - https://apple.co/4anaO6d #457 | Polyvagal Theory: The Key to Well-Being - https://apple.co/4bjIu58 Learn more about:
In this episode of Fuel Your Drive, I talk about a hard truth most people avoid: success and comfort don't live together. If you're always comfortable, you're not growing—and you're definitely not winning. I break down why real progress in business and in life requires discomfort, obsession, and a willingness to pay a price that most people refuse to pay. Comfort feels good in the moment, but it quietly kills momentum, ambition, and potential over time. If you want more—more success, more freedom, more fulfillment—you have to be willing to do what others won't and embrace the uncomfortable work that actually moves the needle. Growth lives on the other side of comfort.

https://teachhoops.com/ A basketball coaching roadmap is not a straight line; it is a seasonal cycle that demands different versions of your leadership at different times of the year. The journey begins in the Pre-Season (September–October), where the focus is almost entirely on "Culture Casting" and fundamental skill building. This is the "installation phase" where you set the non-negotiables of your program—the terminology, the spacing rules, and the effort standards. During this period, you aren't just teaching a motion offense or a 2-3 zone; you are teaching your players how to practice and how to compete. Success in the roadmap's early stages is measured by how quickly your team adopts a collective identity that is resilient enough to handle the adversity of a long winter. As you transition into the Mid-Season (December–January), the roadmap shifts toward "Tactical Refinement" and game management. This is often the most difficult stretch for coaches because it requires a balance between maintaining high-intensity practices and managing the physical and mental fatigue of a conference schedule. At this stage, your job is to audit your systems: what is working, what needs to be "junked," and where are the personnel gaps? Utilizing film study and analytics becomes your greatest asset here. The mid-season is where you find your "rotation rhythm" and begin to implement specific "special situation" plays that can steal a win in a close game. It is a period of constant adjustment where you "double down" on your team's strengths while subtly masking their weaknesses. The final stage of the roadmap is the Post-Season (February–March), where the focus moves to "Peak Execution" and mental poise. By this point, the heavy lifting of teaching should be done; you are no longer installing new plays, but rather refining the timing of your base actions. This is the phase where scouting reports become hyper-specific and every possession carries the weight of the season. Success in the postseason is determined by your team's "Clarity of Purpose"—do they know exactly what the standard is, and do they trust the person next to them?

What happens when life hits harder than your capacity can handle?In this episode, Kevin and Alan explain why readiness is not built in moments of pressure, but long before they arrive. Most people do not fail from lack of effort. They fail because their capacity is too small for the life they want. After years of building businesses, navigating setbacks, coaching clients, and recording thousands of conversations on growth, they have seen the same pattern repeat. Comfort weakens readiness. Short-term thinking limits resilience. When life demands more, most people are exposed.If you want to meet life with strength instead of reaction, this episode will change how you think about preparation. Build the capacity now, or pay the price later. Press play accordingly.Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros expose a common breakdown in personal growth that has nothing to do with motivation or effort. It starts with the moment you set a goal and quietly avoid the standard required to achieve it. This episode centers on self-leadership, accountability, and the discipline to act in alignment with who you say you want to become. It challenges the way most people negotiate with themselves, lowers expectations under pressure, and confuses awareness with progress. The result is stalled momentum and eroded self-trust.If you want results that compound and standards that hold, this episode will force an honest look at who is really in charge of your future. Decide accordingly.Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.
