Podcasts about Suck It Up

Send us Fan MailThe fastest way to miss someone in pain is to only believe the “approved” version of distress. We sit down with Liana Lucine, a former UK London Met police officer and trainer, to unpack how stereotypes shape everything from mental health calls to workplace culture and even how we label victims. When anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma don't match the mental picture we expect, the response can turn into dismissal, jokes, or silence and that's where risk grows for first responders and the people we serve. We talk about how depression can look different across genders, why anger and outbursts can be a red flag, and why trauma sometimes shows up as numbness or a blank face rather than tears. Liana shares insight from seeing victims navigate high-pressure environments, and we connect that to common coping tools like dissociation and memory gaps. We also get into the hard truth about recovery: timing matters. Mandatory debriefs or forced “early therapy” may feel supportive on paper, but they can remove choice and backfire when someone isn't ready. From EMDR to peer support to flexible options that respect autonomy, we make the case for systems that protect organizations without sacrificing the individual. We also spotlight Liana's work on male victims of sexual assault and harassment, the stigma that keeps men quiet, and how gendered language in training can harm everyone by boxing people into roles they never chose. If you care about first responder mental health, PTSD prevention, and better leadership, this conversation offers a clear next step: slow down, challenge the assumption, and ask one more honest question. Subscribe, share this with a coworker, and leave a review so more first responders can find practical, human support when it counts.Buy her book at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GZDWFTG8?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallbackYou can find her on her website at https://lucinetraining.co.uk or YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@LucineTraining and on Instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/lucinetraining/Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

What if your 100 people could feel like 300? That's the bet Robin Daniels, Chief Business Officer at Zensai and author of The Human Success Playbook, is making - and it's working. His company doubled revenue over three years and has been named a great place to work three years running. He joins us to break down how to unlock the potential already sitting inside your organization, lead through genuine uncertainty, and build B2B content that people can actually put to work. About our guest, Robin Daniels Robin Daniels is Chief Business Officer at Zensai, a learning and performance platform competing in a market dominated by Oracle, SAP, and Workday. He previously served as CMO at Matterport and WeWork and held senior marketing roles at Salesforce, LinkedIn, and Box. He recently co-authored The Human Success Playbook - a narrative business book that follows a fictional CEO who refuses a board's demand to cut 40% of the company and sets out to prove there's a better way. The book comes with an AI-powered interface where readers can ask the authors questions and apply every framework directly to their own organization. What B2B Marketers Can Learn From The Human Success Playbook The biggest AI opportunity isn't efficiency - it's multiplication. Robin starts every conversation the same way: do you see AI as a way to cut costs and get more efficient, or do you see it as a way to unlock insane potential in the team you already have? He's made his choice - and built a company around it. Ian puts the math plainly: if you have 100 people, the far more exciting challenge is figuring out how to make them feel like 200 or 300 and generate the revenue to prove it. Robin connects it to something every leader already knows but rarely acts on: "I truly believe everyone has something they're really creatively good at. But if you can actually find time to focus on that, it can lead to new ways of growing your business that maybe you hadn't even thought of before." The companies that win the next five years won't be the ones who cut hardest. They'll be the ones who figured out how to multiply. You can't shrink your way to greatness. Robin credits Tom Peters for the line and means it completely. His argument isn't about shaming companies that make cuts - sometimes it's necessary to survive. The argument is about where the real upside lives: investing in people, giving them new tools and skills and goals, and then letting them find growth paths nobody had imagined yet. "I've never seen a company shrink their way to greatness," he says. "You have to grow." Ian adds the frame: the goal isn't to replace anything - it's to generate more revenue. "How are we going to 2X our revenue?" is a fundamentally more energizing question than "how do we get more efficient?" And it tends to produce more interesting answers. Lead with a vision even when you don't have all the answers. Robin is direct about what employees actually hate most: not bad news, not hard feedback, but uncertainty. "If you don't know what you're working towards, it's really hard to do great work." In The Human Success Playbook, the fictional CEO Evan has eight months to show a different path or get fired - and the whole tension of the story is whether he has the courage to set a direction without knowing exactly where it leads. Robin's advice for real leaders in that position: paint the vision, commit to it, and stay flexible enough to adjust as the world changes. And then, with characteristic directness: "Being a leader has always been tough. Suck it up, buttercup." The future of B2B content is a framework people can make their own. Robin didn't just write The Human Success Playbook - he and his co-authors built an AI-powered interface on top of it so readers can chat with the book and apply its frameworks to their specific company. A 500-person manufacturer in Germany gets different advice than a mid-size bank in the Midwest. Ian connects it to a bigger shift in how B2B content works: "You're building to say: here's the framework, your AI already knows where you want to go as a business, layer this on top and execute." The white paper people download and never read is being replaced by something that actually does the work. Robin is explicit about why: competing against Oracle, SAP, and Workday with a smaller budget means doing something genuinely different. The book is that thing. "I truly believe everyone has something they're really creatively good at. But if you can actually find time to focus on that, it can lead to new ways of growing your business that maybe you hadn't even thought of before." - Robin Daniels Time Stamps [4:00] Meet Robin Daniels, CBO at Zensai and Author of The Human Success Playbook [4:39] Why Robin Wrote the Book - and Why Now [6:00] The Multiplier Choice: Unlock Potential vs. Cut Costs [8:00] It's Just a New Technology - Adapt and Grow [10:00] Robin Has Seen This Before: Internet, Cloud, Mobile, AI [11:00] The Book's Setup: CEO Evan, a 40% Cut Demand, and a Better Way [12:00] The Villain Isn't AI - It's Ignorance and Fear [14:00] Internal vs. External Motivation - and Why Inner Fire Wins [15:00] The Mountain Analogy: What Leaders Owe Their Teams in Uncertain Times [17:00] How to Lead When You Don't Have the Answers [19:00] Suck It Up, Buttercup - Leadership Has Always Been Hard [22:00] Your Whole Job Is to Make Stuff and Sell It [25:00] What Taylor Swift and the Vinyl Revival Teach Us About AI and Creators [31:00] What Should the CEO Actually Do?

In blue-collar workplaces, the culture runs on toughness. Show up, do the job and don't complain. But what happens when a worker loses a father, a coworker, a marriage, or a career, and that same "drive on" mentality is the only tool he's been given to cope?In this episode, I sit down with Adam Daviau, a bilingual end-of-life doula and grief coach who has spent his career helping men navigate loss, especially men in trades and industries where vulnerability isn't exactly part of the job description. We talk about why the standard grief-support system so often fails working men, what unprocessed grief actually looks like on the job site and at home, and what it takes to build a different kind of support.Adam Daviau is a bilingual end-of-life doula based in Sudbury, Ontario, and the founder of Beautiful Existence Doulas. After navigating the overwhelming logistics and emotional weight of his own father's death, Adam became the advocate he wished his family had had; now helping individuals and families lead through loss with clarity and dignity.You can find Adam here: https://beautifulexistencedoulas.com/https://www.instagram.com/beautiful_existence_doulas/https://www.facebook.com/beautifulexistencedoulaservices#Support me on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/nikkithedeathdoula⁠Get merch and find any other info you need on the podcast here: www.nikkithedeathdoula.com/podcast

Permanent daylight saving time sparks a passionate defense from Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber, who argue that later winter sunsets would make life far less depressing. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and both reject the panic over dark mornings, school commutes and circadian rhythms, insisting people can handle the tradeoff for more sunlight at the end of the day. The conversation also turns to how Aaron Glenn should handle Geno Smith's speeding issues, whether the Eagles remain a Super Bowl threat despite signs of instability, the stunning Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal connection, the NHL's expanded schedule and the greatest NFL broadcast theme songs.

Mark Flauter sits down with registered nurse Tammy Scott to share her powerful and deeply personal story of survival and advocacy. In April 2022, Tammy was stabbed and critically injured by a patient while working in a St. Louis–area emergency department. She recounts what she remembers from that traumatic day and opens up about her long and challenging journey toward physical and emotional recovery.   Tammy also discusses her experiences navigating the workers' compensation system and shares her perspective on where hospital administration, and the healthcare system more broadly, can do more to protect frontline professionals from violence. The conversation expands to explore the alarming prevalence of assaults against healthcare workers, both in prehospital settings and inside hospitals, and the troubling normalization of these incidents within the profession.   The episode concludes with a look at Tammy's ongoing advocacy work, including her foundation, The Nightingale Front, her memoir Frontline Survivor, and her upcoming appearance in the documentary Suck It Up, Buttercup, soon to be available on streaming platforms.   This episode is brought to you by Medical Shipment: https://medicalshipment.com/

EPISODE SUMMARY I grew up in a household where complaining wasn't tolerated. My immigrant parents had a simple philosophy: others always have it worse, be grateful, and suck it up. My older sister even had a name for complainers: windy whiners. So naturally, I became a "suck it up" leader. What followed was a distrust cycle I didn't see coming, and then an overcorrection that cost me something different. This episode is about both mistakes, what I learned from each, and how I finally found the balance between high warmth and high expectations. TAKEAWAYS Your leadership default isn't your personality. It's the emotional blueprint you inherited as a kid. Silence isn't peace. When people don't feel safe bringing problems forward, you don't get fewer problems. You get late ones, with excuses attached. Empathy without accountability isn't kindness. It's just a different kind of letting people down. The overcorrection is its own failure. The ARC Method breaks the cycle. Ask what people actually need. Respect what you hear. Connect it to real action and real standards.

The data is hard to ignore: mid-level leaders are the most stressed and burned out professional demographic — more burned out than individual contributors, more than senior executives. And yet most organizations treat manager development as an afterthought. Meanwhile, the generation coming up behind them is looking at middle management and quietly deciding it's not worth it.This episode is for the senior leader. The executive. The person who's climbed out of the valley and is now looking down at it.Adam shares a personal story from May 2009 — a breaking point in the valley, and what the senior leaders around him did and didn't do in response. What that moment revealed wasn't that they didn't care. It's that they'd navigated the valley themselves, but had no idea how to explain what they'd learned. They couldn't transfer what they couldn't articulate.We walk through three signs your middle managers are struggling — and why what looks like a character problem is almost always a systems problem. Then we make the case for what senior leaders actually owe the people in their valley. Spoiler: it's not a pep talk, a mandate to push through, or a sink-or-swim moment. It's a repeatable framework and a leader willing to hand it down.If your team's vision lives or dies through your middle managers — and it does — this one is worth your full attention.Purchase The Fog of Work:Amazon: https://a.co/d/08JMiDajBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-fog-of-work-adam-tarnow/1148527628?ean=9781394368136https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-fog-of-work-adam-tarnow/1148527628?ean=9781394368136

Is the U.S. healthcare system broken from the inside out? I went to a screening of Suck It Up Buttercup with retired pediatrician and healthcare advocate Erin Hurley, and what I learned will stay with me for a long time.In this episode, I share what the film revealed about the pressure, bullying, and systemic greed that doctors face every day, and the alarming suicide rate among medical professionals that nobody seems to be talking about.This is not just a healthcare worker issue. This affects every single one of us as patients, as families, and as a society.Watch the trailer, share the film, and if you feel moved to take action, reach out to your legislators.

In case no one ever told you this, strength isn't the unbothered act, it isn't the constant grind... and it is definitely not your friend who has never had a hard day in her life yet somehow still gives advice.This episode is about what strength actually is and spoiler: your brain rewires itself through hardship, not in spite of it- that's neuroplasticity. Which means every hard season you've survived wasn't just painful, it was doing something.We get into why the self-improvement obsession is often just avoidance in activewear, what the research on experiential avoidance actually says, and why the cool girl always loses. Sometimes strength looks like putting your big girl pants on and doing the hard thing, sometimes it looks like eating that pint of Ben & Jerry's on your couch and letting yourself feel the pain.

Getting injured at work is part of life in a veterinary clinic, but what happens next matters more than most practices want to admit. In this episode, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, dig into a troubling pattern showing up across vet med social media: team members who speak up after a bite, scratch, or potential zoonotic exposure and end up facing dismissal, passive-aggressive pushback, or outright retaliation from management. Our hosts unpack the "badge of honor" culture in vet med that normalizes ignoring injuries, the real and underappreciated risks of rabies and other zoonotic diseases, and why unvaccinated staff should never be handling unknown-rabies-vaccinated-status animals. And Dr. Ward shares why he sees early intervention as smart business, not coddling. Whether you're a vet tech who's been dismissed after an injury, a practice manager setting the tone, or an owner assessing your own culture, this episode is a gut-check worth taking seriously. #VeterinaryMedicine #VetTech #WorkplaceSafety #ZoonoticDisease #VeterinaryViewfinder

The Myth of Constant Availability: Why Being "Always On" is Burning You OutIn this powerful fourth installment of the "Suck It Up, Go It Alone" series, Work-Life Harmony Strategist SaCola Lehr dives deep into a subtle, yet deeply damaging habit: persistent availability. We live in a world of endless pings, emails, Slack messages, group texts, and notifications that never stop. This episode unpacks the profound cost of feeling like you always have to be "on" for everyone else, and how this belief is silently draining your emotional battery and sabotaging your peace.What You'll Uncover in This Episode:1. The Hidden Roots of Hyper-ResponsivenessMore Than Modern Tech: While technology amplifies the problem, Sokola reveals that the need for constant availability is often deeply rooted in childhood. For many, being needed became an identity, a survival strategy learned early on to earn love, keep the peace, or prove value.The Identity Trap: The dangerous belief that we internalize: "If I'm not available, I'm not valuable." Your worth is not tied to how quickly you respond or how many fires you put out.2. The Drain: Burnout Disguised as DedicationThe Nervous System Never Rests: Constant responsiveness keeps your nervous system in a perpetual state of "alert mode." This chips away at your peace of mind, leading to chronic irritability, fatigue, and even resentment toward the very people you care about.Addiction to Chaos: Being constantly "on" is often burnout disguised as dedication. We split our energy between too many things trying to prove dependability at work and being the emotional glue at home leading to emotional exhaustion and hypervigilance.The Trauma Response: For some, this "always on" state is a trauma response carried into adulthood, a hyper-awareness learned in homes where love or peace had to be earned.3. Four Brave Actions to Reclaim Your Energy and PeaceThe good news? You can unlearn this habit and reclaim your time, energy, and peace without losing your impact. SaCola provides four practical, brave actions to start implementing today:1. Set a Tech BoundaryTurn off all notifications outside of work hours. Create "no phone zones" during dinner, family time, or personal rest.To give your brain and nervous system a much-needed break from constant pings and demands.2. Communicate Your AvailabilityClearly state your response times. Example: "I check emails three times a day," or "My cut-off time is 6:30 p.m. for family time."People will respect your boundaries when they are clearly communicated and consistently enforced.3. Create Micro-Breaks to ResetImplement 5-minute deep breathing or stretching breaks, or a 30-minute "just sit, just be" ritual after work.These small, intentional pauses calm your nervous system and restore focus, preventing the buildup of stress.4. Remind Yourself of the TruthInternalize the truth: You are allowed to rest, and you are allowed to be unavailable.The world will keep spinning. Your value is inherent, not conditional on your responsiveness.The Takeaway: Persistent availability is a silent burnout trap. By taking these brave actions, you can stop trading survival mode for strategies that help you truly thrive in your career, life, and everything in between.If today's conversation hit home, don't just stop here.

Healthcare is broken — and everyone feels it. Appointments are rushed. Costs keep rising. Clinicians are burned out. Patients are frustrated. And the system seems to be hurting the very people it's supposed to help. In this episode of The Health Feast, I'm joined by Dr. Todd Otten — a board-certified family doctor and Navy veteran — who nearly left medicine after seeing how deeply the system was failing both his patients and his peers. But instead of walking away, he chose to speak out. Todd co-wrote Ripple of Change with one of his patients and is now producing a powerful new documentary, Suck It Up, Buttercup, to reveal what's really happening inside healthcare — and what needs to change. Whether you're a clinician on the edge of burnout or a patient who's felt dismissed and discouraged, this conversation will help you make sense of your experience — and give you a glimpse of what better could look like. What We Cover: What's actually causing clinician burnout — and why it's not just long hours The hidden trauma of medical training What “moral injury” means — and why it's driving people out of medicine How broken incentives lead to bad outcomes for both patients and doctors Why Dr. Otten nearly left medicine — and what pulled him back The power of solidarity, and why we need collective change What you can do — even if you feel powerless in the system

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross sits down with Brayden Young, co-founder & CEO of Slash Experts and original co-founder of Sendoso, to break down what it takes to cut through the noise in B2B sales and marketing. Brayden reflects on his entrepreneurial journey, the evolution of go-to-market strategies for 2025 and beyond, and how AI is reshaping the landscape for marketers, founders, and sales teams. They dive into personal philosophies, balancing family with drive, using strategic gifting as a growth lever, and how connecting customers with prospects is transforming the sales cycle. If you're in the trenches of building or scaling a company, this episode is packed with invaluable lessons. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. Human conversations > traditional sales decks: Connecting real customers with prospects accelerates trust and conversions. 2. Strategic gifting is about thoughtful timing, not splashy spend. Think: handwritten notes, trigger-based outreach, and lifecycle communications. 3. Reviews are great, but community-driven insights and live interactions are the future of software buying. 4. AI is shifting go-to-market: fewer people, more productivity. Understanding how to use AI is now table stakes. 5. Success is relative: It's not just revenue — it's freedom, fulfillment, and building something that lasts 6. Brayden's Personal Frameworks “Don't build in a silo” — Always validate with customers before building product. “Three People Rule” — The only people he calls for big advice: wife, mom, co-founder. “Suck It Up or Go for a Walk” — His motivational speeches with his wife. First-time employee comp tip: Pick a high milestone and negotiate for equity or secondaries if you hit it. Resources & Tools:

In this powerful episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we meet Tia Banks—a former professional basketball player turned mountaineer and certified resilience expert. Based in Texas, Tia is on a bold mission to climb all seven volcanic summits, one on each continent, using her journey as a platform to inspire strength, courage, and mental resilience. Her love for adventure began with Mount Kilimanjaro in 2021, where she faced illness, doubt, and the ultimate test of her mindset on summit night. But for Tia, mountaineering is more than reaching the top—it's about how we speak to ourselves in tough moments, how we dig deep when we want to give up, and how we “climb our own mountains” in life. In this episode, Tia opens up about her early years in sport, the “suck it up” mentality, the importance of positive self-talk, and her commitment to empowering young people through adventure therapy and her non-profit initiative, Summit Saturday. If you're looking for a dose of motivation to keep pushing through your own challenges—or to finally try something you've never dared before—Tia's story will light the fire.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Lakers "stressed" about Luka not accepting the max this summer. Hey, Lakers. SUCK IT UP. This is the price you pay for running a franchise how it's been run the last few years. Spend the year wooing him and convincing him to stay. That's how you do it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sometimes it's important to suck it up, dig deep, and push forward with as much effort as possible.  Other times, it's essential to stop, take a break, and maybe even change course.  Knowing when to do each of these things is both challenging and crucial to our wellbeing and success.  On this episode, I talk about this dynamic and how it plays out for us - both individually and collectively.  I also share some specific things we can do to find a healthy balance for us and our teams in this regard.   Resources: We're All in This Together (book), by Mike Robbins Mike Robbins Website Mike Robbins Blog Mike Robbins Podcast Mike Robbins on LinkedIn Mike Robbins on Instagram Mike Robbins on Facebook Mike Robbins YouTube Channel Mike Robbins on TikTok Mike Robbins on X Mike Robbins on BlueSky

 We've all had moments of blind rage, but the science says we can be wide-eyed and alert even in our most emotional moments. Ethan Kross is a professor in the University of Michigan's psychology department and its Ross School of Business and he is the director of the Emotion and Self-Control Laboratory. He joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the newest research into controlling our emotions so they don't control us, how labeling feelings as “good” and “bad” helps build a feelings immune system, and why avoidance is sometimes a great tool. His book is “Shift: Managing Your Emotions—So They Don't Manage You.”  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
