We're brilliant at looking forwards. At setting goals. At planning what's next. But taking time to genuinely look back and celebrate what we've achieved? To acknowledge the obstacles we've overcome, the solutions we've created, the progress we've made? That's something we tend to skip right past. And I think that's a real shame. Because that reflection, that celebration, it's not indulgent. It's strategic. It's how we build sustainable success. In this year end episode, we're pausing to do what creative entrepreneurs rarely give themselves permission to do: look back and genuinely acknowledge how far we've come. We'll explore why we skip this crucial step, why it matters more than you might think, and what happens when you give yourself space to reflect on where your exceptional strengths showed up this year.   Key Moments: [01:39] Taking time to celebrate how far you have come [02:53] Why we skip this step: The real power of looking back [08:40] My personal reflection [10:44] The one powerful question to reflect on over the next few days: where did your exceptional strengths show up this year? [13:39] A gentle invitation   Notable Quotes: "When you take time to acknowledge how far you've come, something changes. You start to see your capabilities more clearly. You recognise patterns in what works for you. You build confidence in your ability to solve problems and overcome challenges."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Link: Why Taking Time Off Work is The Smartest Productivity Strategy Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Send an Email: news@philippacraddock.com   Share Your Insights: I'd love to hear from you: Where did your exceptional strengths show up this year?

What if working LESS is the smartest business growth strategy for 2026? Michael Walsh went three years without a vacation—grinding relentlessly, believing scaling required personal sacrifice. Then his wife forced him to take time off. The result? He generated $10,000 in new sales—more than any previous week. He tested further, taking the last week of every month off. His income kept growing. After 30+ years helping $2M-$20M companies scale, Michael has proven that people-first business growth outperforms systems-first approaches every time. What You'll Discover: ✅ The $10,000 vacation discovery - Why strategic time off accelerates revenue instead of slowing it down ✅ The relationship complexity math - Why 100 people = 4,950 relationships, explaining why your systems break as you scale from $1M to $10M ✅ Survive, Thrive, Connect, Adapt framework - Practical roadmap for understanding human behavior structures that support your people to be at their best ✅ Why your people are your #1 brand story customer - How training influencers (even janitors and cafeteria workers) instead of just executives creates authentic brand ambassadors ✅ The social contract that works - Why professional growth takes pressure off top dollar, and how two-minute weekly conversations replace twice-yearly performance theater ✅ Intelligent ecosystems vs. machines - Why "I'm the boss, you do what I say" fails in service businesses, and how to build adaptive capacity ✅ AI and the Age of Creativity - How AI is eliminating junior jobs and what the shift from Information Age to Age of Creativity means for your business About Michael Walsh: Michael Walsh is founder of Walsh Business Growth Institute and author of Freedom by Design: The Established Business Owner's Guide to Grow, Make an Impact, and Find the Joy Again.

Have you ever felt the pull to deepen your healing—but found yourself terrified of what might surface if you actually slowed down long enough to listen? If you're like many people on a concussion or trauma-related healing journey, you might be unintentionally doing the very thing that keeps you stuck: staying in your head, trying to control every outcome, and avoiding the "box" of unresolved experiences you're afraid might burst open. But here's the truth—healing rarely happens in the mind alone. And when you try to logic your way through everything, you disconnect from the very place your healing actually begins: your body. In this episode, Natasha shares a raw and personal update as she heads into a 300-hour somatic-based trauma training in Spain—reflecting on what it takes to be open, curious, and courageous in your own healing… even when you have no idea what might come up. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER: Why staying "in your head" can stall nervous system and concussion recovery The deeper connection between trauma, the body, and persistent symptoms What it really feels like to surrender control and let your healing unfold How you can start reconnecting with your own body in small, safe, meaningful ways Whether you're navigating your own recovery or supporting someone else, this episode is your reminder to slow down, breathe, and come home to yourself—one moment at a time.     Let's Connect! @concussionnerds https://www.instagram.com/concussionnerds/ @natasha.wilch https://www.instagram.com/natasha.wilch/ Email: hello@natashawilch.com Website: https://www.natasha-wilch.com Learn how to connect & understand your nervous system so you can have greater outcomes in your health & healing journey: Grab a copy of the workbookhttps://www.natashawilch.com/understanding-connecting-your-nervous-system-1   Join the Clinician's Edge to have Your Weekly Taste of Neuro Wisdom  here: https://www.natashawilch.com/clinicians-edge   Join the Concussion Mini School and Membership!

Benson Joseph speaks from Luke 17:11-19 titled Taking Time For Thanksgiving.

How much do you reflect on all that you've been forgiven of?

Taking time

After taking a much needed break to refocus and recharge, I'm back and in this episode, I'm sharing why stepping away was exactly what I needed. We'll talk about the pressure of constant creation, the importance of listening to your mind, and how reconnecting with what truly inspires you can reignite your passion. I'll take you through my week exploring some incredible experiences in London from discovering the soulful storytelling of Rahasya Fragrances to being blown away by the craftsmanship at the Beams Expedition Club exhibition. Each moment reminded me of why menswear means so much more than clothes it's about history, culture, and emotion stitched into every garment. And we'll also dive into a major moment for the industry: Grace Wales Bonner's groundbreaking appointment as the first Black woman to become creative director at Hermès a move that marks a powerful shift in how we see creativity and representation in menswear. This episode is about slowing down, finding purpose, and celebrating the artistry that keeps us inspired.

Why taking time to yourself is so important.

The holidays don't start in December. They start now—right here, in the quiet before the whirlwind begins. If you wait until the week of Thanksgiving to get ready, you'll find yourself staying up too late wrapping gifts, juggling family gatherings, cleaning in a frenzy before company arrives, and wondering where all your peace went. In this episode, I'm walking you through the home systems you need in place before the holidays hit—so you can actually slow down, enjoy your family, and still have the space to check in on your business if you want to. Because when you prepare your home now, you create the margin that lets you rest, connect, and be fully present through the season ahead. xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . If this episode is stirring something in you—the desire to finally live and work from a place of calm instead of chaos—it's time to take the next step. Inside Systemize to Scale, you'll learn how to systemize both your home and your business so you can move through every season with focus, peace, and consistency. You don't need to keep running on empty or waiting for the “perfect time” to get organized. That time is now. We'll help you build the foundation that allows you to stay present with your family, grow your business with confidence, and finally feel like you're not dropping the ball anywhere.

Back to school is settled, fall break is here—or maybe even over—and that means the holidays are right around the corner. If you're a business owner, chances are you haven't really thought about how to get ahead so you can actually take time off. You're just trying to enjoy the calm before the storm. But not this year. This year, it's going to be different. In today's episode, I'm walking you through four systems you need in place before you take time off so your business keeps running while you rest. This is Part 1 of a special two-part holiday prep series designed to help you actually unplug, enjoy your family, and still feel confident that your business is moving forward. Then—come back Friday for Part 2, where we'll talk about how to prep your home so you can rest, recharge, and not just trade business work for housework. xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . ➡️ Want to see exactly how I build these systems inside my own business?

It's been 4 months since I posted the last episode in May, and after a lot of reflection, we're back! In this episode I share some reflections on recognising when you're tired and when things are even a tiny bit out of alignment. Sometimes we don't have the answers and we have to be OK with just sitting in the the unknown, waiting with trust that what's meant to be will be, and may already be. I went to Hawaii last week to do some work (on me) with the wonderful Sam Horn, and surprisingly that opened up a few cans of worms I wasn't expecting. Sometimes we just need to sit in faith.

I'm ba-aack! As we enter the new season of Yes You, I'm taking you into this season in my life and business. Having taken a break, it could be tempting to launch back into full-scale activity, but I'm tuning into a whisper that's asking for something different. It's not about staying in break mode. It's about being in the transition between rest and action.  This is a time of tending the soil of my life and business for what will grow next.You may like to ponder where the transition spaces are in your own life, and how you might inhabit them a little more fully. I invite you to reflect (or journal) on this question:What would it mean for me to tend the soil in my life and/or business?And as always, I'd love you to share your reflections with me. Maybe we can help each other explore in a deeper way. :)* * * *From this episode:I'm introducing a new episode format: Mini Mentoring sessions.If you have question to ask, or a challenge you're facing in your business, I'd love to hear from you.

The Deputy Prime Minister has shaken off accusations from the opposition over the Government's decision to take its time in recognising a Palestinian state. The Government plans to make an official decision in the coming weeks. David Seymour says the Government will take the time needed to decide its stance. "The Government is taking its time - some say this conflict goes back 4000 years. I don't think it's a major problem for the Government of New Zealand on the other side of the world to take a few weeks to come to a sober and sensible decision."

In this engaging episode of Coffee & Tea with CarrieVee, CarrieVee welcomes back author, business leader, and master storyteller Dave Moravec for yet another insightful conversation. Dave shares the journey behind his newest book, Echoes to Remember, a sequel to his successful debut, Echoes Across the Tracks. Together, they explore the power of storytelling, time travel, and timeless principles of customer service that bridge both the past and the present.Dave offers a fascinating look into his fictional character Charlie—a seasoned business consultant who finds himself wrestling with the dilemma of whether to reveal his experiences of time travel. Through Charlie's adventures, Dave weaves powerful parables about business, leadership, and customer service. Notably, he challenges the traditional notion that “the customer is always right,” reframing it as “the customer is always the customer,” and shares real-life examples of how businesses can differentiate themselves through responsiveness and personal connection.Carrie and Dave discuss how customer expectations have evolved post-pandemic, touching on topics like service responsiveness, modern communication tools, and how old-school relationship-building lessons remain just as relevant today. Dave also teases future books in his “Echoes” series, from stories set at sea on cruise ships to tales inspired by the chaos of urban streets.Listeners will walk away reflecting on how personal experiences shape their choices, how to serve others more effectively in business and life, and how to translate the lessons of the past into meaningful action today.Writing Prompt: Dave encourages listeners to look back over significant life events—both triumphs and mistakes—and write about what they learned from those experiences, finding connections that shape who they've become today.Contact Dave Moravec:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davemoravec2018/Email: ddmoravec5@gmail.comWebsite: www.salesmanagerforrent.comPhone: 309.838.1947 Echoes Across the Tracks Book: https://amzn.to/3UAnpcSEchoes to Remember Book: https://amzn.to/40fAKLa Echoes to Remember Coffee and Tea With CarrieVee Podcast Episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-and-tea-with-carrievee/id1514671446?i=1000654785238  Radical Empowerment Method Book on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3Bdp2BC Book CarrieVee for a Speaking Engagement: https://www.coachcarriev.com/contact-me Join the Confidence and Clarity Membership! https://carrievee.com/confidence-clarity-1 Schedule your Discovery Call with CarrieVee!https://schedulewithcarrievee.as.me/?appointmentType=12343596  Step Into Your Big Life Freebie: https://www.coachcarriev.com/stepintoyourbiglifefreebie The Radical Empowerment Method 2.0 Online Course https://www.coachcarriev.com/radicalempowermentmethod2  Get to an EVENT! www.carrievee.com/events Con
