    Surviving High-Conflict Divorce Without Losing Yourself or Your Kids with Alex Dane

    High-conflict divorce isn't just a legal process—it can feel like daily psychological pressure. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Avik (with Sana filling in), we talk about what it really takes to stay grounded when conflict keeps coming and your emotional bandwidth is already stretched thin. This conversation is for parents navigating custody stress, courtroom anxiety, and the fear of “messing up” their kids emotionally. Guest Alex Dane shares lived, practical strategies for staying steady, protecting credibility, and separating parenting from legal warfare—so survival can become a path back to clarity and self-trust. About the Guest: Alex Dane is a father, strategist, and survivor of the family court system. He's the author of How to Win Your Divorce and The High Conflict Playbook (an Amazon #1 bestseller), sharing tools rooted in lived experience. Episode Chapter: 00:05:03 — Why high-conflict divorce feels like psychological warfare 00:07:25 — “Least brain power, biggest decisions”: what nobody prepares you for 00:10:47 — Accepting the system is unfair and building a strategy anyway 00:12:06 — “Best interest of the child” vs. what the system rewards 00:13:45 — Using anger, anxiety, and grief without letting them control you 00:19:58 — Separating legal battle from parenting time: the “two worlds” approach 00:26:16 — Does “winning” language escalate conflict? A grounded reframing Key Takeaways: Accept early when collaboration isn't possible—then shift into strategy, not denial Treat strong emotions as signals and fuel, but process them safely outside court settings Protect your credibility: calm, clear communication often matters more than perfect facts Create a “transition ritual” between legal work and parenting (pause, reset, support call) Journal the inner journey so anger doesn't become your long-term identity Keep kids out of adult processing—use external supports so children don't become emotional caretakers How to Connect With the Guest: Substack: https://howtowinyourdivorce.substack.com/  Book: High Conflict Playbook by Alex Dane on Amazon http://www.howtowinyourdivorce.com/ - Sign up for the waitlist for presales for How To Win Your Divorce and get a Free chapter and divorce checklist.

Through biblical teaching and personal stories—including Lysa's own journey through the painful end of her marriage—they explore how broken trust, loss, and uncertainty can shake our confidence, but also how God consistently proves Himself faithful. They discuss practical ways to keep trusting Him by staying rooted in His Word, following the Spirit's leading, and surrounding ourselves with godly community.

    Joining the Project Purple Podcast from sunny Venice, Florida, originally from Wisconsin, pancreatic cancer survivor Rhonda Vavrek sits down with host Dino Verrelli to share her remarkable journey through a changing diagnosis and what it truly means to keep going when the road is anything but straight. Rhonda shares how, in June 2012, what began as upper back pain and jaundice led to a pancreatic cancer diagnosis: something she never expected after a lifetime of good health. Initially staged at 2/2A, she qualified for the Whipple procedure and underwent chemotherapy before surgery. Post-Whipple, however, doctors discovered the cancer had metastasized to her liver and lungs, advancing her to Stage 4 and giving her an estimated six months to live. As she emphasizes, though, “Stage 4 does not mean we give up,” a mantra that carried her forward. She reflects on the many twists and turns that followed, including FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy, liver ablation, lung and rib surgeries, and more than five surgeries and 50 CT scans in total. Now NED since 2018, Rhonda speaks about what carried her through: an incredible team of doctors, surgeons, and nurses; her deep faith; and the unwavering support of her husband of nearly 45 years, whom she credits with pushing her forward when she wanted to stop. She also opens up about survivor's guilt, scanxiety, and the importance of truly knowing your body and advocating for yourself. Rhonda mentions the role humor played in helping her cope, including naming her chemo port “George Clooney,” and why setting goals, giving yourself grace, and tuning out the noise of statistics can make all the difference. Her story is a powerful reminder that while pancreatic cancer is terrifying, the monster she describes it as does not get to take over your life.

    How a patient survived for 48 hours without lungs. Too ill to receive a lung transplant straight away, the man relied on an artificial lung while his body recovered from an infection. As he prepares to repeat the procedure for the first time, Dr Ankit Bharat, Chief of Thoracic Surgery at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine explains the groundbreaking technique. Radiotherapy for abdominal cancers can severely damage the uterus and ovaries, causing infertility. However, a team have developed a technique where the uterus is moved out of harm's way during treatment, and now the first baby has been born to a recipient in Europe. Our studio guest today, genito-urinary consultant Vanessa Apea, explains how it worked and what it might mean for patients.

    Okay, this was a really, really great episode. Today I'm helping another founder with a life pitch fix, and you are really in for a treat because on the one hand, Strong by Form, the company of today, is absolutely fascinating. And on the other hand, we are also going to be covering so many helpful concepts that will help you improve your pitch and your communication, all while working on a really interesting case study.So to start off, I will just pitch you Strong by Form how I pitch it to friends or random people, right? If you think of a healthy tree, imagine a healthy tree with long branches. It is really fascinating how resilient trees can be, right? Surviving wind and storm. How is that possible? It is actually partially due to the way the fibers of the wood align. Now Strong by Form saw an opportunity here and decided to analyze this and learn from the natural fiber structure of trees to create wood that is as strong as steel or concrete.Now their super wood can be used as the cover, the external layer of cars. Imagine a Mercedes or a BMW just covered with a layer of wood on the outside.Super resilient, but it could also cover skyscrapers or replace the concrete slabs used within skyscrapers. Andreas Mitnick, the founder and CEO of Strong by Form, is, in my humble opinion, sitting on a gold mine of storytelling that can sometimes be pretty hard to grasp as the founder, right? Because there is a German saying: you don't see the forest due to too many trees.Well, that is exactly what is going on in this episode. You get to witness the process of rediscovering the forest, the big picture, as we, layer by layer, reshape the pitch of Strong by Form from the ground up. You will find that Andre's excitement and energy truly build throughout the episode.So I would say it really is worth listening until the end.

    EVEN MORE about this episode!What happens when divine guidance moves through music, creativity, and the courage to trust your calling?Join Julie Ryan and Broadway star Pamela Bob as they explore spiritual channeling, divine timing, singing as sacred expression, and how play and creativity reveal why we incarnate. In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, Pamela opens up about the sacred vulnerability of singing, why performing for an intimate room can feel more terrifying than a packed theater, and how music aligns with our unique energetic vibration. From the emotional force of shows like Ragtime to a childhood moment of divine recognition—“I think this is God”—this conversation dives deep into artistry as a spiritual calling.Listeners will be captivated by Pamela's jaw-dropping story of channeling June Carter Cash during a nightly, unscripted improvisation—an experience so powerful that Julie reveals June herself chose Pamela in the audition and guided her through every performance. Pamela also shares the brutal truth behind elite performing arts training, where she was repeatedly told she couldn't sing, yet trusted her inner knowing enough to persevere when others were cut. That same guidance later led her from a lucid dream to creating the award-winning Livin' On a Prairie, as the right people and opportunities appeared at exactly the right time.This episode is ultimately a love letter to play, joy, and remembering who you were before the world told you who to be. Pamela reflects on the transformative power of creativity through stories like Encore, where adults rediscover themselves through performance, and offers a simple yet profound invitation for anyone feeling stuck: return to what you loved as a child. The conversation closes with a tear-filled reflection on why we incarnate at all—sparked by a dying woman's final words: “It was so much fun.”Guest Biography:Pamela Bob is a multifaceted actor, singer, and award-winning screenwriter whose career spans Broadway, Off-Broadway, film, television, and podcasting. On Broadway, she appeared in the Tony-nominated Hand to God and the Tony Award–winning A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, where she famously covered all six female roles and regularly stepped into leading performances. Off-Broadway, she starred as Clarice Starling in the cult hit Silence! The Musical—named one of Time Magazine's ten must-see NYC shows—and earned a BroadwayWorld nomination for Best Actor for her role in Cracked Open.

    Building a Thriller Career Under Pressure: Michael Wendroff on What It Takes

    In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, debut thriller author Michael Wendroff shares what it really takes to move from “I want to write” to finishing—and publishing—a novel under real-world pressure. He unpacks how rejection, revisions, and long timelines test your mindset more than your talent. This episode is for writers, creators, and anyone pursuing a meaningful goal without guarantees. You'll hear how Michael stayed committed, handled intense editorial feedback, and built a repeatable process for book two—without losing the joy of the work. About the Guest: Michael Wendroff is a debut thriller writer whose novel What Goes Around reached a third printing and sold international translation rights. He has a background in marketing, earned an MBA from NYU, and has worked in global strategic marketing. Episode Chapter: 00:06:08 The real tension behind writing thrillers: patience, rejection, pressure 00:07:31 The moment that sparked What Goes Around 00:08:39 “Connections don't make it automatic”: the reality of publishing 00:11:22 Observing pro writers up close—and what it taught him 00:14:24 The pandemic as the end of excuses 00:15:25 The editing gauntlet: acquisitions, line, copy, proof, final type pass 00:18:30 Surviving beyond book one: brand, series consistency, and craft process Key Takeaways: Treat creative goals like long-term commitments: remove excuses and start imperfectly. Expect publishing to involve multiple editorial rounds—plan emotional stamina for revisions. Build a repeatable process (plotting, research, structure) so book two isn't guesswork. Write for today's attention economy: short chapters, strong openings, and momentum-driven endings. Balance AI research with verification, and prioritize real conversations with experts for authenticity.

    My guest today, Fatima Bhutto, knows more than most about loss and living with a traumatic family legacy. Now 43, Fatima is descended from one of Pakistan's most prominent political dynasties. When she was just 14, her father, the politician Murtaza Bhutto, was killed by his political opponents during the premiership of his sister, Benazir Bhutto. Her grandfather, the former President and Prime Minister, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, was also killed by the state. I tell you this because, despite now being a prominent writer and speaker in her own right, Fatima is the first to admit how much this shaped her. She is the author of two novels including the Women's Prize long listed The Shadow of the Crescent Moon, and three works of non-fiction. The most recent is The Hour of The Wolf, an unflinching memoir about the decade Fatima spent in a coercive relationship in her thirties, and her beloved dog, Coco, the jack Russell terrier who became her lifeline. Fatima joined me to talk candidly about the single dad she adored, the impact of intergenerational trauma and her longing for motherhood. We also discussed why no-one is immune from coercion, learning to let go of shame, toxic self-esteem, how it feels to be older than her father and, wait for it, there is some joy!, being a dog lady! And yes, I promise, there is a happy ever after.  CW: I should warn you there is discussion of coercive control from the outset. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including The Hour of the Wolf by Fatima Bhutto as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    What happens when a world-changing technology attracts trillions of dollars in investment and how do you avoid being on the wrong side of the boom?On this episode of the Women's Money Wisdom podcast, Melissa Joy is joined by Kai Wu, founder and chief investment officer of Sparkline Capital, for a thoughtful, data-driven conversation about AI and its real investment implications.Rather than focusing on hype or fear, this discussion centers on capital allocation, specifically what happens when massive amounts of money pour into infrastructure. Using historical parallels like the railroads and the dot-com telecom buildout, Melissa and Kai explore why transformative technologies don't always translate into transformative returns for the companies building the underlying systems.You'll hear what “CapEx” actually means, why AI requires unprecedented spending on chips and data centers, and how today's market concentration around the largest tech companies creates both opportunity and risk. This episode is especially helpful if you've benefited from recent market gains but are wondering about concentration risk, diversification, or how to think more strategically about AI exposure in your portfolio.In this conversation, you'll learn:Why a transformative technology does not automatically mean a great investmentWhat capital expenditures (CapEx) are and why AI infrastructure is so expensiveHow past technology booms rewarded users more than infrastructure buildersWhy highly capital-intensive companies often underperform over timeHow S&P 500 concentration may create hidden portfolio riskWhat “AI early adopters” are and why they may offer overlooked opportunityHow to think about diversification without abandoning innovationWhether you're managing significant wealth or simply trying to make smarter long-term decisions, this episode offers practical insight to help you think clearly — without hype, panic, or binary thinking.Follow Kai and read his research: https://sparklinecapital.comX: https://x.com/ckaiwuLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ckaiwu/The previous presentation by PEARL PLANNING was intended for general information purposes only.

In this episode hosted by Brien Gearin, Mike Andes, founder of Augusta Lawn Care, shares how a near-death accident under a dump truck became the turning point that forced him to systematize his business and step out of day-to-day operations. He breaks down the path from operator to leader, the three stages of scaling from $0 to $1 million, and why pay-for-performance, open-book management, and profit-sharing are game-changers for employee motivation and retention. Mike also reveals how content creation and personal branding helped him grow both his franchise and software companies — and why every small business owner should consider becoming “the mayor” of their local market online.

    Surviving can look successful from the outside—yet feel exhausting on the inside. This episode explores the shift from pushing through to living well, even when life is demanding. If you feel stuck in reactivity, “Groundhog Day,” or constant busyness, Suzanne Rath shares practical ways to rebuild focus, momentum, and capacity. You'll learn why resilience isn't endless grit—it's resourcefulness, recovery, and intentional pauses that help you adapt, lead, and thrive long-term. About the Guest: Suzanne Rath is an endurance athlete, physiotherapist, and health coach based in Queensland, Australia (originally from Ireland). After a life-changing bike accident and traumatic brain injury, she developed the NDOS framework to support recovery, adaptability, and sustainable high performance. Episode Chapters: 00:06:10 – Survival vs thriving: the real shift 00:07:29 – Suzanne's accident and the long road back 00:09:23 – What resilience is (and isn't) 00:12:30 – Why survival mode accelerates time and fuels reactivity 00:15:07 – Signs you're stuck: focus, momentum, potential 00:17:57 – NDOS: vision, noise reduction, and recovery 00:23:18 – Support systems + adaptability as a modern superpower Key Takeaways: Treat purpose as a daily practice, not a feeling you “wait for.” Use micro-breaks to shift brain state (5 minutes counts). Create a “recovery menu” so breaks don't become more screen time. Reduce noise: close tabs, step away, and return to one priority. Build a support system with roles: cheerleader, accountability, wisdom. Strengthen adaptability by normalizing learning and mistakes at work.

    We all have something that makes us feel safe. Something we run to when the pressure rises and the wind starts blowing. But what if the thing keeping you afloat is also the thing keeping you stuck?In this message, we look at Peter stepping out of the boat and discover the difference between the freedom we've learned to accept and the freedom Jesus actually gives. Survival isn't the same as surrender and safe isn't the same as free. If you've been managing your storm instead of trusting Jesus in it, this one is for you.
