In this special throwback episode,Nachi Gordon sits down with Rivka Shotkin, a 16 year old from Passaic and the youngest guest in Meaningful People history. On January 31, 2021, a family ski trip in Tannersville ended when Rivka missed a turn on her last run of the day and went straight into a tree, breaking 11 bones, puncturing both lungs, and severing her spinal cord. She walks us through waking up in the ICU nine days later, three months of rehab during COVID without being able to see her family, and landing back in the hospital with septic shock just five days after finally coming home.   What makes this one special is how Rivka talks about all of it. She opens up about how unhappy she was before the accident, the strange sense of peace she felt that weekend, why she now calls her injury a gift, and what she wants the community to understand about treating people in wheelchairs. It's funny, honest, and genuinely inspiring.   This episode is sponsored by:   ► PZ Deals   Never pay full price again when you download the PZ Deals app.   https://app.pz.deals/install/mpp   _________________   ► Colel Chabad Pushka App   The easiest way to give Tzedaka.   https://pushkapp.cc/meaningful   _________________   ► Shopify Guru   Store looks great but not selling the way it should?

In this episode, Marquelle Brown and Heidi Davies-Case unpack the “second betrayal” — the pain that comes when support systems misunderstand or minimize betrayal trauma. They share personal experiences, explain how gaslighting and blame‑shifting fracture identity, and teach the skills women need to rebuild safety, confidence, and self‑trust. With spiritual grounding and practical tools, they show how healing moves women from surviving to thriving, reminding listeners that hope, clarity, and worth can be reclaimed no matter how deep the hurt.

The Power of "I Am": Rewiring Identity for Real ChangeI'm trying something new — a weekly Friday recap where I share some of the reflections that come up in my world during the week, in the hope that they help you too.This week's inspiration came straight from one of my NourisHer coaching calls. We went deep — because the truth is, health and fitness progress is never just about the food or the training plan. It's about the limiting beliefs, the self-sabotage, the confidence, and the values sitting underneath it all.The journaling prompt I want to leave you with this week is built around two small but massive words: "I am." Try this — write out 10 spontaneous "I am" statements, no overthinking, and see what comes up. What you write will tell you a lot about the identity narratives quietly shaping your habits and your reality.Here's the catch, though. Negative "I am" labels — "I am ugly," "I am anxious," "I am depressed" — don't just describe how you feel, they can trap you in a shame cycle. So I talk through a shift: separating feelings from identity. "I feel tired" is very different from "I am tired." And instead, I want you using intentional, believable identity statements — things like "I am someone who walks every day" — to build real momentum, one baby step at a time.I'd love to know what comes up for you with this one — send me your feedback. And if you want support putting any of this into action, I break down where NourisHer and LeadHer can help at the end.Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome Back Solo Episode 01:33 Weekly Recap Podcast Plan 02:14 Nourish Her Calls Go Deep 05:37 Journaling Power of I Am 07:04 Identity Boxes and Self Talk 08:10 Affirmations and Baby Steps 11:54 Feelings Are Not Identity 14:27 Support Systems and Language 15:47 Intentional I Am Examples 17:23 Momentum Business and Next Step 18:35 No Five Year Plan Mindset 19:33 Wrap Up and Coaching OfferLinks & Resources: Apply for LeadHer business mentorship here Apply for NourisHer health & fitness coaching here Subscribe to my weekly coaching newsletter here Access my FREE calorie calculator here Connect with my Kate Hamilton Business Instagram here Connect with Kate Hamilton Business Facebook here Connect with my Kate Hamilton Health Instagram here Connect with Kate Hamilton Health Facebook here Connect with me on TikTok here Connect with me on YouTube hereIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with friends who might benefit.Music b LiQWYD Free download: hypeddit.com/link/xxtopb [http://hypeddit.com/link/xxtopb] Promoted by FreeMusicPromo [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbycji-eySnM3WD8mbxPUSQ] / @freemusicpromo

Kevin Seldon spent five years trying to become a father, and when he finally got there — through a difficult pregnancy, a hard birth, and a NICU stay — he had nowhere to turn. That isolation became a podcast (Dad I'd Like to Friend), then a nonprofit (Dads Supporting Dads), and now a book built around the myths he kept hearing from new fathers: that bonding is instant, that there's no room for mistakes, that good parents always put their kids' needs first. In this conversation, Kevin and Erin dig into care equity — the idea that supporting fathers isn't support taken away from mothers, but a way to lighten a load birthing moms are already carrying alone. They also preview the research study they're conducting together on non-birthing parents.

She then became an aesthetician who works with skin, and says that this is an industry where you are also judged on how you look and your appearance by clients and peers. She has been diagnosed with Female pattern hair loss and Teogen effluvium after visiting three dermatologists to get answers and a suitable treatment plan. She has had to advocate for herself and do a lot of research. She sill feels like she has no idea what will happen regarding her hair loss going forward.Rachel states that although her family were sympathetic at first, they soon lost patience with her and have made it clear that they think she should have got over it by now, put a wig on, and got on with her life. her relationship with certain family members is conditional, and the relationships have broken down over this. Losing her hair has caused tension between her and her family, and left her with no support network or help. After times where she has really struggled with her hair loss, she feels completely alone and has noone to support her. She has had to seek help and community online with others who have had hair loss and understand her better.After struggling with surgeries, illness and addictions, she still describes her hair loss as being the worst thing that has ever happened to her.  Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Support the showConnect with Hair therapy:FacebookInstagramTwitterClubhouse- @Hair.TherapyHair Therapy WebsiteDonate towards the podcast Start your own podcastHair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert! Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK

What does connection mean to you? How do you know when you're feeling connected?Connection is foundational to building trust, and trust is an essential quality that any team or relationship needs to grow.Yet in many relationships, both personally and professionally, we tolerate disconnection. We miss the early signals of missed deadlines, the subtle cues of quiet resentment, and the team that's compliant and even productive, but not engaged.  Until disconnection creates the distrust, the dis-ease, and the erosion of psychological safety that, left unchecked, hijacks even the strongest relationships, teams, and organizations.Leaders and their teams need to not only learn to identify markers of disconnection early, but to also develop the skills to repair it. The goal isn't a team that never ruptures. It's a team that knows how to reconnect.That's why I'm so excited to talk with my guest today about her work that integrates well-being science, positive psychology, and systems-level leadership to help organizations uncover what it takes to build connected, thriving teams where well-being and high performance can truly coexist.Jamie Shapiro, PhD, is a Keynote Speaker, Master Certified Executive Coach, organizational psychologist, researcher and the CEO of Connected EC. Jamie's approach blends science, strategy, and lived leadership experience to her work with CEOs and executive teams navigating growth, complexity, and cultural transformation.Jamie is the author of Brilliant: Be the Leader Who Shines Brightly Without Burning Out and Connected Culture: The New Science for Thriving Teams and Cultures. She is also the founder of the Leader and Organization Vitality (LOV) Center, a research institute that advances the science of leadership vitality, culture, and performance and bridges the gap between research and real-world practice.Listen to the full episode to hear: How Jamie's personal experience with cycles of burnout in the corporate world informs her research and coaching practiceThe physical, mental, and emotional impacts of trust and connection on teamsWhy Jamie's model for thriving teams has trust, care, and connection at its coreWhat corporate culture consistently gets wrong about candid communication and the number one way to improve itWhat we can learn from chickens about building high-performing teamsHow psychological safety and connection positively drive performanceLearn more about Jamie Shapiro:Connected ECConnect on LinkedInBrilliant: Be The Leader Who Shines Brightly Without Burning OutConnected Culture: The New Science for Thriving Teams and CulturesLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Links The Gifts of Imperfection, Brené BrownLoneliness: Human Nature and the Need for Social Connection, John T Cacioppo and William PatrickThe Neuroscience of Trust, Paul J.

Ask Rachel anythingA listener parenting a teen son wrote to say both of them felt pretty stunned when he was rejected from the university he'd set his heart on. She asked for the best way to help our teenagers cope with this sort of disappointment. I thought it was a great question and a good opportunity to also look at how we parents can best navigate when our teen has worked for years toward a dream - a top university place, exam results, a team, a part - and it doesn't happen. The disappointment can feel earth‑shattering for them and gut‑wrenching for you.In this episode I talk with Dr Dominique Thompson, award‑winning GP and young people's mental health expert, about how to support teenagers through big disappointments such as university rejection, exam failure, and missed opportunities – without rescuing them or minimising their feelings.We explore:What teens are actually grieving when things go wrong – including the loss of an imagined futureHow to validate their emotions while gently stopping catastrophic thinkingThe difference between building resilience and teaching kids to suppress their feelingsWhy today's culture of perfectionism and “being the best” is driving anxiety, burnout and fear of failureHow to help teens separate self‑worth from grades, offers and achievementsPractical ways to prepare teens for university life, academic stress and independenceWhen dropping out isn't the only option – how to press pause, get help and return strongerWhat to do if your teen feels “left behind” while friends move on to university or big opportunitiesHow parents can be a “safe harbour”: supportive, boundaried, and not adding their own disappointment to their teen's loadIf you're a parent wondering how to respond when your child says, “I've failed you,” or “There's no point trying,” this conversation will give you concrete language, mindset shifts and step‑by‑step strategies to help them cope, reframe, and find a new path forward.Dr Dominique Thompson: is a multi-award winning former GP, young people's mental health expert, TEDx speaker, author and educator, with over two decades of NHS clinical experience.She is author of The Student Wellbeing Series for young people, and co-author of How to Grow a Grown Up (PenguinRandomHouse) for parents.dominique.thompson@me.comwww.buzzconsulting.co.uk https://www.instagram.com/drdomthompson/https://www.facebook.com/drdomthompson/https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominique-thompson/Support the showPlease hit the follow button if you like the podcast, and share it with anyone who might benefit. You can review us on Apple podcasts by going to the show page, scrolling down to the bottom where you can click on a star then you can leave your message. Please don't hesitate to seek the advice of a specialist if you're not coping.

Always Working: Marcus on Mental Health, Meaning, and Building a Purpose-Driven BrandSavia Rocks opens Season 7 of the Us People Podcast with guest Marcus, founder of Always Working Clothing (AWC), a creative writing master's student, filmmaker, and supporting artist, who shares how growing up in Southeast London during post-code war tensions shaped his desire for kindness, community, and change.Marcus describes shedding others' expectations, becoming more vulnerable, and focusing on mental health, reframing trauma as something that can lead to growth. He explains launching AWC three years ago after depression and feeling lost post-undergrad, later relaunching it in November with a stronger purpose centered on moving through hardships and supporting mental health, while navigating family support mixed with skepticism. Marcus outlines his busy routine balancing dissertation, freelance film/TV work, business planning, and a documentary exploring meaningful life without burnout or loneliness, discusses masculinity and vulnerability, and recalls finding peace after successfully hosting his first AWC event and donating to charity. He directs listeners to Always Working Clothing on Instagram, Home Media Productions on YouTube, and alwaysworkingclothing.com, noting he is not currently selling clothes while prioritizing the mental health mission.00:00 Welcome and Legacy01:10 Season Seven Intro01:51 Meet Marcus and AWC03:09 Growing Up Southeast London04:58 Kindness Over Gangster Culture08:11 Mirror Identity and Self Growth10:36 Starting Always Working Clothing15:16 Support Systems and Family Doubts20:20 Daily Routine and Avoiding Burnout24:53 Curiosity Documentary and Collabs30:09 Men and Mental Health32:49 Vulnerability Is Strength36:21 Pass On the Favor38:06 What Actually Matters41:01 Life Without Judgment46:23 Soundtrack of My Life49:03 Finding Peace After the Event53:04 Where to Find Marcus54:44 Final Thanks and Sign-Off56:50 Closing Song LyricsInstagram: always_working_clothing Youtube: homedia productionsTiktok: alwaysworkingclothingWebsite: www.alwaysworkingclothing.comThank you so much Marcus for letting us know that life does not always give us the start we need but we can change path and find our passion. - Savia RocksSupport the show

Lasting recovery isn't something you build alone.One of the biggest mistakes Christian men make is believing they simply need more discipline or willpower. But God designed us to heal and grow in relationship.In this episode, we're beginning the Green Zone portion of the Personal Recovery Plan by exploring one simple question:Who helps your Hungry Heart?Not every relationship nourishes your heart equally. Some people encourage you toward Jesus.

You're proactively feeding your Hungry Heart with the relationships God intended you to have.In this episode you'll learn:Why you need to be intentional with connection to make it stickThe different kinds of people you need in your circle to feel fulfilled How healthy relationships help regulate your emotions.Why accountability alone isn't enough.How to intentionally build a stronger Green Zone.Together we'll identify the people, patterns, and strategies that best support your recovery so you can stop guessing and move forward with clarity and confidence.Ready to build your own Personal Recovery Plan?Book your Personal Recovery Plan Session https://secrethabit.ca/callNot quite ready?Take the Secret Habit Clarity Quiz to discover what's really driving your struggle.https://secrethabit.ca/quiz

Most people spend their lives trying to follow a clear roadmap, but model, author, and advocate Emma Heming Willis believes that life's hardest seasons are often where we find our true purpose. In this deeply moving conversation from Making Space, Emma sits down with Hoda Kotb to pull back the curtain on navigating her husband Bruce Willis's frontotemporal dementia (FTD) diagnosis, breaking through the heavy isolation of caregiving, and learning how to ask for help before the ecosystem of care bottoms out. She and Hoda explore the delicate balance between grief and joy, embracing spontaneity, and allowing cracks of light to shine through matter in a world that often feels heavy.

This week, Coach Blu Robinson sits down with Jim Logan for a powerful Attitude Athlete conversation about transformation through adversity. Jim's journey, from hearing the words "you have cancer" to crossing the finish line as an Ironman, is a testament to what can happen when faith, perseverance, and purpose become stronger than fear. Listen as Jim shares the physical, emotional, and spiritual reality of confronting a cancer diagnosis. Rather than allowing that moment to define the limits of his life, he began rebuilding it, one decision, one workout, one act of faith, and one day at a time. His path to becoming an Ironman was never simply about endurance sports. Training became a vehicle for healing, discipline, gratitude, and rediscovering what his life could mean after survival. The miles represented more than fitness; they reflected a commitment to keep showing up, even when the road was difficult.

What happens when being “the strong one” becomes the identity you can no longer carry? In this episode of Harder Than Life, Kelly Siegel sits down with Christmas Abbott — CrossFit athlete, nationally ranked weightlifter, Big Brother All-Star, entrepreneur, author, and the first woman to work at the highest level of a NASCAR pit crew — for a raw conversation about survival, motherhood, faith, fitness, mental health, and reinvention. Christmas shares how a turbulent childhood and years of self-destructive behavior led to a life-changing decision to work in Baghdad during an active war. It was there that she discovered fitness, beginning a journey that would eventually take her into competitive weightlifting, CrossFit, NASCAR, and reality television. But when injury threatened her athletic identity and motherhood changed the direction of her life, Christmas was forced to confront a different kind of challenge: Who are you when strength and achievement can no longer protect you? She opens up about single motherhood, postpartum struggles, ADD/ADHD, therapy, custody battles, faith, surrender, and the emotional cost of always being the person everyone expects to stay strong. Kelly and Christmas also explore confidence, childhood wounds, generational patterns, fitness after 35, women's health after 40, hormone health, blood work, peptides, supplements, and building a more sustainable approach to training and recovery.

"Sometimes, giving a name to something can help someone, because then you have a plan, you can go forward and see changes, and to know that there's not something wrong with you. You're suffering with other men and women in the same age group." —Dr. Drew Sinatra "There's also that perspective that can be helpful, especially if you're in a partnership: what I do for my health is good for me, but it's also good for you. If I help myself age well, it means you're less likely to have to take care of me, and we're going to have a better time." —Dr. Lisa Brent There's a quiet epidemic happening in men's lives, and almost no one's naming it. He's more tired than usual. Shorter fuse. Less interested in the gym, in sex, in connecting with the people around him. His doctor might call it depression. His wife might just think he's "checked out." Nobody's checking his testosterone. In this episode, Justine and naturopathic physician Dr. Lisa Brent sit down with Dr. Drew Sinatra to talk about andropause — the slow, often invisible hormonal shift men go through in midlife. Drew explains why testosterone decline gets missed for years, why so many men get handed an antidepressant instead of a hormone panel, and what it actually takes to find the real root cause. This isn't a conversation about chasing gym-rat testosterone numbers. It's about vitality: energy, mood, motivation, connection — and what happens when men finally get permission to talk about it. Lisa and Drew also get into something heavier: the male suicide rate that peaks in midlife, and how isolation, exhaustion, and unnamed hormonal shifts often collide. The fix isn't just a prescription. It's labs, lifestyle, and surprisingly, community. Share this with the man who's been "off" for a while now. He might not know why. This episode might help him find out.  Meet Drew:  As a California- and Idaho-licensed Naturopathic Doctor who specializes in Integrative Medicine, Dr. Drew Sinatra helps people investigate the "why" behind an illness or symptom – providing the best of natural and conventional therapies to re-establish vitality lost to chronic stress and illness.

The conversation explores the realities of foster care from both the perspective of foster parents and those learning about the system from the outside.The hosts discuss the different types of foster care placements, including emergency, short-term, long-term, and youth in conflict placements, as well as the intake process and the difficult decisions foster families must make when accepting a child into their home. They highlight the importance of understanding family dynamics, communicating boundaries with caseworkers, and recognizing the emotional and logistical challenges that come with fostering.The conversation also dives into the first month after placement, the overwhelming nature of adjusting to a new child in the home, the responsibilities foster parents carry, and the importance of strong support systems. Topics include visitation with biological parents, navigating relationships within the child welfare system, and the misconceptions many people have about foster families.Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize that foster families are everyday people making an extraordinary commitment. By sharing personal stories and practical insights, the podcast aims to build empathy, educate the community, and encourage greater support for children and families involved in foster care.Learn more about becoming a foster parent with our "Fostering Front Door" resources:https://americaskidsbelong.org/lp/ffd-potential-foster-parent-journey/TakeawaysThe Foster Friendly Podcast celebrates two years of conversations focused on educating and supporting the foster care community.Sharing real foster care stories helps bridge the gap between those involved in foster care and those who may not understand the system.Foster care placements can include emergency, short-term, long-term, and youth in conflict situations.The intake process involves carefully evaluating a child's needs and circumstances.Foster parents often receive placement calls unexpectedly and must make difficult decisions quickly.Families should communicate their preferences, boundaries, and limitations with caseworkers.The decision to accept a placement should consider the needs of both the child and the foster family.Foster care impacts entire families and requires thoughtful consideration of family dynamics.The first month after placement can be one of the most challenging and overwhelming periods for foster families.Strong relationships with caseworkers and community members can make the foster care journey more manageable.Foster parents handle significant responsibilities, including appointments, paperwork, daily care, and emotional support.Visitation with biological parents is an important part of many foster care experiences.Foster families are not extraordinary people—they are ordinary people choosing to do something extraordinary.Community involvement and support systems are essential for helping foster families succeed.Greater understanding and empathy can come from learning about the realities of foster care.The needs of the child should remain the central focus in every foster care decision.

If you're the woman who has always been the responsible one — the good student, the hard worker, the person everyone can count on, but wine has quietly become your reward at the end of the day, this episode is for you.

In this conversation, Katharine shares how she went from counting down to wine o'clock every night to building a life that actually felt good to be present for.
