When you rewrite one of your people's reports at 9pm, you're not just compensating for their weakness. You're reinforcing it.That report was their chance to learn how to do it properly.

It's a special day over here at Brave Women at Work! Today marks the first show in almost 300 episodes when I have a male guest! Logan is the first!So, you may be thinking, “Why now?”First, the format of this show is not changing. Most of the guests will be female or identify as female, but I just knew in my gut that Logan had to be the first male guest because he is not only interesting and amazing at the young age of 16, but he has co-written a children's book series, Different But the Same Game, that celebrates diversity, inclusion, and empathy, with his aunt, Mylene Barizo.Logan is a brave young man because he is smart, wise, and I love that he has amazing, strong women in his life, such as his mom, NAME, his aunt, Mylene, and also his sister Layni, who has not only beaten leukemia as a child but also has Down's Syndrome. I have been told that Layni is a firecracker and really squeezes the juice out of life, so I hope I get to meet both Layni and Logan in-person one day.The first book in the series, Tabletop Fun, is not just a book. This book is for every child who has ever felt different, every family who has navigated tender conversations about special needs, every parent that has looked for a joyful and more natural way to teach empathy to their kids, and for every teacher that wants to celebrate diversity.Here is more about Logan:Logan Schultz was fourteen years old when he agreed to co-author a children's book celebrating his experience as the sibling to Layni, his sister with Down Syndrome. Layni's special needs have shaped him in many ways. At an early age, he became very aware of how different they were. Learning to accept and embrace their individual qualities came as he matured, a process that accelerated when he lived through Layni's battle with cancer. A high school student today, Logan excels in academics, competes in piano adjudications, is a sports enthusiast (go Seahawks!) and shares a love of travel and food adventures with his family. His parents' gifts of a strong work ethic and love of music are things he will carry into college and beyond.Before we begin, please be sure to share this show with a family member, friend or colleague.

Three seconds later, your brain has already built a whole story about what that means.Join Anna and Tim as they break down five things marriage has actually taught them about emotional intelligence, the kind you only learn by living it, not by studying it. They get into the difference between a feeling and the story you build around it, the real question hiding underneath most arguments, and why choosing to be right can quietly cost you the thing you actually wanted.This Episode Covers:Learning to separate what actually happened from the story you add to it within seconds.Using internal family systems to notice which part of you is driving the reaction, not the whole self.Realizing the real question under most fights is: are you there for me?

The starting point is simple: God's word never comes back empty. It accomplishes the thing He sent it to do. It heals, it delivers, and it sets people free, including a man who carried guilt and shame for over twenty years and walked out from under it in a single class. From there the call gets practical. James 1:5 says if you lack wisdom for a decision or a circumstance, ask God, and He gives generously, without rebuke or blame. No performance requirement. No thirty day clean streak. Trav walks through the time he asked God for a word over his daughter's medical testing and heard a phrase he had never used in his life, then went and found it sitting in Isaiah 61. The fear left the moment the word arrived. Then comes verse six, the warning about doubt. A double minded man keeps one foot in the spiritual and one foot in his own reasoning, and Scripture says he should not expect to receive anything. That shows up most often in health and in finances, and it usually does not sound like unbelief. It sounds like "I know God is my healer, but." Taught live on the Increase Life Bible Study. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Why God's word always accomplishes what He sent it to do How to ask God for a word to stand on, and how to test it against Scripture Why fear and worry get disguised as love and concern What James 1:5 actually promises about wisdom and who qualifies for it What double mindedness looks like in real life, especially with health and money Why you never have to get yourself right before you ask God for help How to go to the doctor and keep your faith in God at the same time CHAPTERS 0:00 The power of one word: a twenty year weight lifted 5:33 Isaiah 55:11 and Psalm 107:20: what God's word always does 7:19 How to ask God for a word to stand on 9:40 The doctor's report on my daughter 14:01 She will grow tall like the mighty oak 22:12 James 1:5: ask for wisdom and He gives it generously 26:25 James 1:6-8: the double minded man 32:44 When your actions say God might not come through 47:46 Doctors, medicine, and where your faith belongs 56:39 God's plan is a long and satisfying life SCRIPTURES REFERENCED Psalm 107:20 (Amplified) Isaiah 55:11 (Amplified) Isaiah 61:3 Romans 10:17 James 1:5-8 (Amplified) Hebrews 4:16 Hebrews 4:2 Romans 8:1 1 John 4:18 2 Timothy 1:7 John 10:10 Galatians 6:9 If this teaching helped you, like the video and leave a comment with what stood out to you.

We discuss: why putting yourself in the right room can change your self-concept and expand what feels possible manifestation vs. hard work — and why belief + discipline together are so powerful acclimating yourself to wealth, success and people operating at the next level why learning to actually ask for what you want can create opportunities faster how masterminds, networking and community can normalize your next level before you've reached itWe also pull back the curtain on the immersive celebrity retreat we're creating — including live coaching, creative projects, networking, industry connections, paparazzi and a red carpet.

A freestall may look like a fairly simple piece of bent steel. But behind its modern design lies decades of observation, experimentation, failure and research into how cows naturally move, rest and behave.John de Jonge grew up on a dairy farm in British Columbia before entering agricultural manufacturing and dairy barn equipment. In the 1990s, he became part of a small group that began using time-lapse video and early sensor technology to study cows in pasture and inside freestall barns.What they discovered challenged many of the industry's assumptions.Freestalls were often too short, too narrow and too restrictive. Neck rails were positioned incorrectly. Pipes were placed in the cow's natural movement path. The industry had focused heavily on the strength and durability of the steel—but not enough on how the cow actually used the space.In this episode, John shares how that research helped reshape freestall design around the world. He and Paul also examine why the “best” housing system depends on climate, bedding, manure handling, labor and management—and why copying a successful neighboring dairy can still end badly.The technology inside dairy barns continues to change, but one principle has not: the entire system is only as strong as the environment it creates for the individual cow. Listen now!MEET THE GUESTJohn de Jonge grew up on his family's dairy farm in Pitt Meadows, British Columbia, where he developed an early interest in machinery, manufacturing and dairy housing.After studying agricultural mechanics and engineering at Olds College, John worked in several manufacturing environments before purchasing a small agricultural fabrication business at age 25. He went on to help develop and expand dairy housing equipment across North America and international markets.During the 1990s, John worked alongside researchers, veterinarians and other industry specialists to study cow behavior using time-lapse video and early sensor technology. That work helped challenge conventional assumptions about freestall dimensions, neck-rail placement and the space cows require to rise, rest and move naturally.John is now focused on InBarn, where he continues to help dairy producers and their advisors design facilities around cow comfort, management realities and long-term operational performance.ABOUT THE PODCASTDiscover the world of agriculture with the "Ag Culture Podcast".This podcast will be a gateway for those passionate about agriculture to explore its global perspectives and innovative practices.Join Paul as he shares his experiences in the agricultural industry, his travels, and encounters with important figures around the world.Available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.Subscribe at http://www.agculturepodcast.com and keep an eye out for future episodes, bringing insights and stories from the vibrant world of agriculture.

We do these listener Q&A episodes because they force us to say the quiet part out loud. This one, with Greg back on the mic, dug into everything I actually care about heading into another season — work, family, the woods, and how none of that stays in its own separate box no matter how hard you try to keep it that way. We talked about how our hunting has changed, not because we care less, but because we've stopped measuring a season by whether a deer hits the ground. That took years to admit. Success used to mean a tag filled. Now it means I showed up, read the sign right, and made a decision I can stand behind whether or not it worked out. Most of this episode is about the ground itself. Terrain, scouting, mapping tools — the stuff that actually separates a good season from a lucky one. We got into how we scout big woods country specifically: reading rub lines to figure out where deer are actually moving, not where we wish they were, and why entry and exit routes matter more than where you hang the stand. Blow a deer out once on your way in, and you've undone a month of careful work. We've both made that mistake enough times to talk about it honestly. We also hashed out the mobile-versus-stationary debate, which never really ends and probably shouldn't. There's no universal right answer — just what fits the ground you're hunting and the hunter you are. Same goes for gear. We ran through what actually rides in our packs every single sit, no filler. Toward the end we got into fitness, motivation, and discipline, because hunting hard big woods country is a physical problem as much as a tactical one, and what separates hunters who improve from hunters who stall out is usually the boring stuff nobody wants to talk about. We closed on the idea that's carried us through some rough seasons: control what you can control. The wind, the weather, the deer — none of that's yours to manage. Your prep, your effort, your attitude in the stand — that's the whole game. If you've got questions of your own, keep sending them. These Q&As are some of my favorite episodes to record.

New school year, same fight for parental rights with school boards across the country accused of defying federal policy and Supreme Court precedent on guidelines pertaining to culture-war flashpoints. America First Legal Senior Advisor Ian Prior speaks with Fox's Peter Doocy about what this defiance looks like in schools around the country, what legal tools are at parents' disposal to protect their children, and how the Trump administration's legal actions are reshaping education policy. The debate over birth tourism and immigration enforcement takes center stage as questions surrounding visa fraud, national security, and political influence continue to surface. Retired Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Special Agent Claude Arnold joins to discuss what these organized operations look like on the ground, the potential national security risks tied to foreign actors exploiting U.S. citizenship laws, and why codifying restrictions into federal law may be the key to lasting enforcement across changing administrations.

Tim Plaehn is a teacher who writes about honor codes. In his writing class last April, he believed he had two students he knew used AI. So, he gave the whole class an opportunity to "come clean," and he said his email began dinging while 22 of the 40 students admitted they had used AI on their papers. Tim has authored the book, The Honor Code: Students, Integrity, and our Path Forward where he talks about integrity and how we need to be discussing integrity with our students. This is not an easy topic but an important one!

I just got back from five weeks in Europe with my parents, and I want to take you behind the scenes.  My parents are in their 80s. My dad has been through two bouts of stage four cancer and is in remission. My mom, knock on wood, is healthy. How long will that last? How much longer can I see the world with them? This trip happened in the shadow of losing Huxley, my soul dog, which meant I went into it already cracked open, already thinking about mortality and time and what we do with the moments we have. And it turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. We started in Warsaw, flew to Madrid, drove through Costa Brava and the French Riviera and the Italian Riviera in an SUV packed with carry-on luggage only, watched Spain win the World Cup in a medieval town on the Catalan coast, swam in alpine lakes in Slovenia, and ended back in Warsaw where my dad told me stories I'd never heard and my mom said it was all a fairy tale. This episode is more than just a travel diary. It's about ancestry, about what we inherit from the people who came before us, about why now is the time to go do the things you've always wanted to do, and about what grief and presence and awe have been teaching me this year.   IN THIS EPISODE:  How losing Huxley made me show up completely different this summer  The hidden gem coastlines of Costa Brava and the Italian Riviera that barely any Americans know about What it was like to watch Spain's World Cup Victory from the streets of a medieval Catalan town The celebrity sighting we had in a sleepy Spanish fishing village while leaving our phones behind for an evening swim What my parents said at the end of the trip that made every exhausting, hot, logistically complicated moment completely worth it Living in the same Warsaw apartment building where my great-grandparents lived until 1970 The stories my parents told me about their lives and upbringings Why being in Warsaw every year makes me feel the thin veil between the life I have and the parallel one I could have had How this trip fed directly into the second book I'm writing, Emboldened   Join over 20,000 souls who tune into weekly newsletters on the competitive advantage you get alcohol-free. Get on the Euphoric newsletter.

You don't have to become somebody else. You just have to start becoming more YOU.

We are back baby! I took the summer off and we are diving back in with this fall kick-off episode about some leadership lessons I have learned from the late Dolly Parton. This episode is my reflection on key lessons from Dolly's life: authentic self-expression, unwavering confidence, and the courage to live boldly. A key theme that emerged was the power of owning your story and gifts — without waiting for someone else to grant you permission. The episode explored how Dolly's generosity, resilience, and humility impacted millions, not just through her music but also her philanthropy and infectious energy. I invite you to reflect on your own legacy, embrace your unique strengths, and lead with authenticity. Join the movement to honor Dolly by making your life meaningful and inspiring others every single day.Marli Williams is an international keynote speaker, master facilitator, and joy instigator who has worked with organizations such as Nike, United Way, Doordash, along with many colleges and schools across the United States.

Daniel Everett, professor of cognitive sciences at Bentley University and author of Don't Sleep, There Are Snakes, joins Dr. Tara Perry to share what 30 years living among the Pirahã people of the Amazon taught him about happiness, fear, and the stories Western culture tells itself. He arrived as an evangelical missionary. He left a changed man.The Pirahã have no suicide, no panic attacks, no depression, and no word for the past they refuse to carry. In this episode, Daniel breaks down exactly how they live, and what the rest of us might be doing wrong.KEY TAKEAWAYS03:19 Daniel went to the Amazon to convert the Pirahã — and calls his failure the best thing that ever happened to him. 05:15 When Daniel described suicide to the Pirahã, they burst out laughing. They had never heard of such a thing. 09:47 A Stanford psychologist measured Pirahã happiness the simplest way possible — by tracking how often they laugh and smile. 17:27 The only behaviors the Pirahã consider unacceptable are losing your temper, violence, and forcing others against their will. 34:21 The Pirahã live entirely in the present — not talking about the past or future is a deliberate cultural value, built into their language. 36:07 Pirahã verbs carry a built-in suffix that marks whether an event is in your control or out of it — a distinction that shapes how they relate to life. 37:20 Every few months, Pirahã people change their names after a significant event — a practical way to leave the past behind and become someone new. 43:16 The Pirahã's self-confidence, resilience, and fearlessness in the face of genuine daily danger ultimately cost Daniel his Christian faith. 47:50 The Pirahã openly saw and described an entity on the riverbank that Daniel, standing beside them, could not see at all. 54:00 Daniel's takeaway from three decades in the Amazon: when you're underwater, keep walking. You will reach the bank.If you're ready to take your healing to the next level, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Tara at: https://ConsultTara.com/book

That is exactly what the enemy is counting on. If he can dominate your thought life with fear, worry, and what if it doesn't work, he does not have to do anything else. Your beliefs follow your thoughts, your words follow your beliefs, and your actions follow your words. He gets the outcome he wanted without ever touching your circumstances. In this teaching we walk through 2 Corinthians 10:5 and Romans 12:2 in the New Living Translation, then open Matthew 6:25-34, John 14:26-27, and John 16:33 in the Amplified. Jesus gave a direct instruction: stop being worried and anxious saying what will we eat, what will we drink, how are we going to make it. That is a command, which means you have the ability to carry it out. You have power, love, and a sound and well disciplined mind, and you can answer every fear thought the same way Jesus answered Satan. It is written. Taught live on the morning call inside the Increase Academy, where we get in the Word together before the day starts. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN - Why your dominating thoughts set the direction of your life - How one negative thought stair steps into a full spiral - How to catch a thought and make it obey Christ - The scriptures that shut down fear about money, health, and the future - Why healing is always God's will, and what Mark 6 actually says - What Jesus meant by take no thought saying - How to answer what if it doesn't work with what if it does CHAPTERS 0:00 Welcome and good morning 1:00 The devil just wants to control your thought life 3:21 Take every thought captive and renew your mind 4:58 The basketball injury and the 45 second spiral 7:05 Do not be ignorant of his devices, answer with the Word 10:04 The woman who wanted to lay hands on her brother 13:47 Is it always God's will to heal 20:14 How Jesus shut Satan down, it is written 22:56 Matthew 6, stop being worried and anxious 27:22 John 14 and John 16:33, His peace and courage when trouble comes 36:11 Closing prayer SCRIPTURES REFERENCED 2 Corinthians 10:5 Romans 12:2 (New Living Translation) Mark 4 Philippians 4:19 1 Peter 2:24 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified) Acts 10:38 Mark 6:5-6 2 Corinthians 9:8 Matthew 6:25-34 (Amplified) John 14:12 John 14:26-27 (Amplified) John 16:33 (Amplified) 1 Corinthians 2:16 James 1:5 Philippians 4:8 If this teaching helped you, like the video and leave a comment with what stood out to you.

After more than 12 years of food sobriety, I see food addiction recovery very differently than I did when I started.In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast, I'm sharing what more than a decade of living in recovery has taught me about overcoming food addiction, managing cravings and triggers, and building lasting food sobriety. I'll also talk about some of the expectations we bring into recovery that can actually make us question our progress when we're doing better than we realize.If you've ever wondered what long-term recovery from food addiction really looks like, or whether you're doing this whole food sobriety thing “right,” this episode is for you.Grab your copy of my FREE 9 page Beginner's Guide to Food Sobriety https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietyguideFood Freedom Online Course: https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodfreedomcourseFood Sobriety Mini Course -https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietymcWant to learn more about me and my coaching programs?

Nobody taught you these 4 life skills, and that's not on you. It's crazy to me that you can go to school for 18+ years and still have no idea how to feed yourself, read a pay stub, or have an uncomfortable conversation without spiraling. So, today I'm breaking down those 4 life skills, realistically, so you can stop feeling like you're faking your way through "adulting."Topics covered:

Need any advice or information, message us.We chat with Casey Halloran, CEO of Costa Rican Vacations and the Namu Travel Group, to get his take on the current state of Costa Rica's tourism and real estate markets. They discuss how global economic uncertainty is affecting demand, where Costa Rica's strongest tourism markets are coming from, whether the country is becoming too expensive, what makes a hotel or vacation rental commercially successful, and the mistakes developers consistently make. Casey also shares where he sees the biggest untapped opportunities over the next decade, what he believes people understood about Costa Rica 20 years ago that newcomers often miss, and where he would invest $500,000 in Costa Rica today.Free 15 min consultation:  https://meetings.hubspot.com/jake806/crconsultContact us: info@investingcostarica.comCasey Halloran: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caseyjhalloran/

Ready to turn your gift for helping people into a real coaching career? Visit: https://riseandthriveglobal.com/positive-psychology-coaching/ Alli Schaper will tell you that the most important things she knows about living, she learned from mushrooms, including how to die. She is the CEO and cofounder of SuperMush, a functional mushroom brand backed by globally recognised artists, athletes and founders, a co-founder of Microdosing Collective, the first US nonprofit dedicated to legal microdosing advocacy, and the host of Into The Multiverse, a podcast exploring consciousness and psychedelics. Her path there did not begin on a stage. By the time she was 21, she had been prescribed around twelve different pharmaceutical medications for chronic gut issues she had carried since childhood. The tuning fork Alli’s way out was not a magic pill, and that, she says, was the whole lesson. Functional mushrooms, lion’s mane instead of high doses of caffeine, chaga for immune function, reishi to wind down for sleep, acted as what she calls a tuning fork for her nervous system. They slowed her down enough for her body to follow its natural rhythm, and for her gut, our second brain, to function well again. She is quick to add that not all mushrooms are made equal. The gold standard is the fruiting body of the fungus, double extracted through hot water and alcohol, and she is passionate about people learning to read the label of what they put in their body. The lie of the quick fix Society, Alli argues, has sold us a massive lie: that everything we take should fix us immediately. An Advil numbs the pain, a Xanax puts you to sleep. Adaptogens are different. They work to bring the body into homeostasis, and sometimes the first week feels worse, not better, as the body works through what it has been holding, the way a sauna stirs up what it is helping you release. Stay the course, she says, and the discomfort is the detox. What fungi know about death Then the conversation goes somewhere most wellness interviews never do. Humans share almost 50 per cent of our DNA with fungi, and Alli believes we have barely begun to learn from them. Beneath every step we take runs the mycelium network, and when something dies on the forest floor, the fungi decompose it and return its nutrients to the soil as new life. Mushrooms, she says, are great alchemisers of death and dying. That teaching became personal when her father passed away unexpectedly, five days before he was due to retire. Her whole family had experienced mushrooms together before he died, and it gave her mother, married to him for 36 years, a profoundly different relationship with grief. His passing also left Alli with a warning she now carries everywhere: beware destination happiness, the habit of parking your joy at some future date you may never reach. A breath between trigger and response Microdosing, Alli explains, is a sub-perceptual dose of a psychedelic taken like a supplement, no visuals, no hallucinations, on a protocol of a few days a week over about three months. By quieting the default mode network, where our habit loops live, it opens a window of neuroplasticity. Her favourite example is disarmingly ordinary: her mum calls, says something triggering, and where the old programme would answer like a six-year-old, microdosing gives her a breath to choose her response. Those subtle shifts, she believes, could change the world. It is not a panacea, she is careful to say, and used unconsciously psychedelics can cause real trouble. Used consciously, with reverence, they helped her look at herself honestly. Not a magic pill For 15 to 20 years, Alli sat on the crinkly paper of doctors’ offices waiting to be told what was wrong with her. The turning point was deciding her health was her own responsibility, and seeing clearly, in her words, how much of her life her mind was making her sick. What the mushrooms unlayered was something she believes we all carry underneath: your natural state is joy. Alli left us with three shiny golden nuggets. Functional mushrooms can be a tuning fork for your nervous system. Microdosing can create open-mindedness and the ability to pattern-interrupt yourself. And mushrooms are incredible teachers of death that can teach us how to live more fully. Watch the full conversation on YouTube.

New school year, same fight for parental rights with school boards across the country accused of defying federal policy and Supreme Court precedent on guidelines pertaining to culture-war flashpoints. America First Legal Senior Advisor Ian Prior speaks with Fox's Peter Doocy about what this defiance looks like in schools around the country, what legal tools are at parents' disposal to protect their children, and how the Trump administration's legal actions are reshaping education policy. The debate over birth tourism and immigration enforcement takes center stage as questions surrounding visa fraud, national security, and political influence continue to surface. Retired Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Special Agent Claude Arnold joins to discuss what these organized operations look like on the ground, the potential national security risks tied to foreign actors exploiting U.S. citizenship laws, and why codifying restrictions into federal law may be the key to lasting enforcement across changing administrations.

In 336 BCE, a young man from northern Greece took over a nearly bankrupt kingdom. Within 13 years he had established dominance over the rest of Greece, claimed the crowns of Egypt and Persian, and built the second-largest empire in the world to that time. He also burned whole cities to the ground, left thousands of bodies crucifed along a beach in Lebanon, and may well have been responsible for the death of nearly 1% of the global population.He was Aristotle's pupil, Alexander the Great. In this episode, we look at Alexander's biography and how his epic smash-and-grab campaign may just have led to the preservation of Greek literature as we know it today—including the works of Aristotle.See the reading list and references for this episode by clicking here.

This episode is a recap — and an expansion — of the six-hour Mixing Masterclass that Dee Kei hosted live in his LA studio. Lu was in the room. The audience brought mixes. Things got real. Now Dee and Lu bring the best of it to the podcast, including the things they didn't get to cover in person.The first and most important topic: what is the actual value of a mix engineer, and how should that determine your pricing? Dee lays out a position he holds firmly — you should never discount your rate based on stem count, never negotiate yourself down before the client even asks, and never charge by the hour for mixing. Your rate reflects the lifetime of training behind each decision, not the time it took to make it. Like Picasso sketching on a napkin, the price isn't for the five minutes — it's for everything it took to get there. Lu adds the market reality: what your price communicates before the client even hears your mix, and why charging too little signals something you don't want to signal.From there the episode moves into compression — specifically what happened in the room when Dee deliberately smashed a vocal with an 1176 in "all buttons in" mode and the mix bus with a Vertigo VCA compressor just to prove a point. The reaction in the room said everything: over-compression isn't always wrong. Rules like "don't compress more than 2-3dB" are useful frameworks until the moment the song tells you otherwise.They also get into the subjective vs. objective nature of mixing — why saying "there's no such thing as a good or bad mix" is actually incorrect, and how to think about objectivity in a field where the tools of judgment are mostly invisible. The Shohei Ohtani analogy here is one of the better ones the show has produced.The episode closes with a breakdown of how Spotify's LUFS normalization actually works — including the gating behavior that means raising your quieter sections can paradoxically lower your integrated LUFS, and why album masters and single masters should be approached as two completely separate deliverables if you want your music to hold up in playlists.A lot covered.

Female friendships change SO much as we get older. In this episode of The Stella Rae Podcast, we're talking about making friends as an adult, losing friends, outgrowing friendships, loneliness, and what happens when you're on your own glow-up or self-improvement journey.I'm sharing some personal experiences with friendships that changed as I grew, including dealing with weird energy, feeling left out, recognizing jealousy, setting boundaries, and learning that not everyone needs to be your best friend. We also talk about codependent friendships, maintaining your independence within relationships, trusting your intuition, and rebuilding your ability to trust people after you've been hurt.Then we get into the bigger picture of getting older and realizing that your friendships naturally change as you move through different life stages, especially when people start dating, getting married, having kids, moving, or simply choosing different paths.I'm also talking about how to make friends as an adult, why quality matters more than quantity, saying yes to more things, making small talk, building community, and why sometimes the most random interactions can turn into meaningful friendships.And of course, we have to talk about the Kylie Jenner + Jordyn Woods friendship breakup and what seeing their old friendship again made me think about female friendships, betrayal, growing apart, and how much our relationships can change over time

Somewhere on your team right now there's a person who isn't delivering. You thought of their name before you got to the end of that sentence.Over the next seven days, I'm going to show you they're probably not your problem. They're a symptom of it.This is Day 1 of a seven part series, recut from a live workshop I ran called Stop Rescuing Your Underperformers. One leadership blind spot a day, for seven days.Today it's number one, and it's the big one. Accountability. I've taught this for almost a decade, and if you did nothing else at all, this is the one that lifts team performance more than any other.Here's the part most leaders miss. Every time you step in and do an underperformer's work, every time you make a decision for them, take a meeting yourself, or fix the thing before it goes upstairs, accountability shifts from them to you. So you probably haven't got a person who won't take accountability. You've got a person who doesn't need to.In this episode I walk you through the rescue cycle, the six signs of an accountability vacuum so you can score yourself out of six, and the night at a social function when I found out two teams inside the same bank were building almost exactly the same thing. The overlap number still makes me wince.I also answer two questions that came in live. Christina asks how you get someone to see their failures when they refuse to. Dylan asks how you motivate people with no ambition, who just show up and do enough to get by.Grab a pen.

What if the strangest moments at the end of life are actually the most meaningful?In this episode, Alexandra Grabbe joins Brian to talk about the seven months she spent caring for her 96-year-old mother, Bea, at home — and the deathbed visions that changed how she understands what happens when we die. Alexandra shares the exhaustion, the tenderness, and the moments of unexpected grace that shaped her new memoir, Seeing Joy. If you've ever cared for a dying parent, sat with someone in their final days, or wondered what those "hallucinations" near the end of life really mean, this conversation will stay with you.About Alexandra GrabbeAlexandra Grabbe has lived many lives — talk show host in Paris, eco-friendly innkeeper on Cape Cod, and lifelong writer. After graduating from Vassar College, she raised three children in France, worked in journalism and broadcasting, and assisted literary figures Barbara Chase-Riboud and Marge Piercy. For two decades she ran a green bed-and-breakfast in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. When her mother's health declined, Alexandra became her full-time caregiver — an experience that became the caregiving blog "By B's Bedside" and, nearly two decades later, her home care memoir Seeing Joy: A Story of Life, Death, and What Comes Next (Koehler Books, March 2026).

Gary Habermas has likely studied the historical evidence for the resurrection more than anyone who has ever lived. He's just finished a four-volume work on it and he told me the final volume, on theology and practice, may be the last thing he writes on the subject. It's my favorite of the four, and I wanted to ask him why he made the turn.

What if the way you were taught to earn money is completely different from the way wealthy people build it? In this solo episode, Amy Sylvis explores the different financial rules followed by the poor, middle class, and wealthy using a framework from Robert Kiyosaki's Cashflow Quadrant. She breaks down how money moves through each group's income statement and balance sheet, revealing an important distinction between earning a salary and owning assets that generate income. Amy also shares why this difference became personal when cystic fibrosis left her unable to work at age 35. From the risks of relying entirely on a paycheck to the impact inflation can have on salary, she explains why building income-producing assets can provide another layer of financial flexibility. Rather than prescribing one path, Amy encourages listeners to understand the options available and decide which financial structure best supports the freedom and life they want to create.

In recognizing that his hour has come, Jesus explains that the cross is meant to glorify the Father and draw all people to himself. But, it's also something we're called to as his followers. How can we live this out, laying down our life that it might produce life in others?   Taught by Ryan Doucet.

In this Ask Catlin episode, I respond to three questions educators have recently shared with me on social media about active processing, note-taking, and the Station Rotation Model. I explore how teachers can build meaningful processing opportunities into whole-group instruction without creating elaborate activities, and I share a gradual-release approach for explicitly teaching students how to take notes. I also discuss how elementary resource teachers can use Station Rotation to provide targeted small-group instruction for students working toward different IEP goals. Across all three questions, I emphasize the importance of providing intentional scaffolds and support as we help students develop greater confidence and independence as learners.

Send us Fan MailThe Peace & Prosperity Podcast is a bi-weekly conversation with Dr. Jason Phillips, LCSW, licensed therapist and confidence expert in Raleigh, NC, discussing all things related to self-love and self-confidence, and how we can improve ourselves personally and professionally.Dr. Jason Phillips gets honest about something a lot of high performers don't say out loud: success doesn't replace love, and grief quietly lives in that gap between still achieving and still missing your person. He unpacks the grief myths that sound comforting but often keep us stuck, from "time heals all wounds" to the pressure to act like you should be "over it" by now, and broadens the conversation beyond death to include divorce, estrangement, incarceration, and relationships that never became what you needed—drawing from his own experience losing his grandmother and mother. He also gets into why grinding harder can't repair grief, and how being "the strong one" quietly becomes its own trap. You'll walk away with grounded coping strategies and a challenge to let grief inform your next chapter instead of defining it.

More content. More followers. More visibility. More leads. Those are the requests many founders bring to their marketing team or agency. But before you dive in, do you know the business problem underneath it? In this episode of The Smartest Person in the Room, Susan Saltwell talks with INSPIRED Vibe founders Christin Daniels and Amber Halverson about what they learned at the Effie Academy at Cannes Lions—and why effective marketing begins long before the creative idea. Together, they unpack a more disciplined approach for founder-led and B2B businesses: define the real growth challenge, understand the audience deeply enough to uncover what matters, determine what belief or behavior needs to change, and measure whether the work is creating meaningful business progress. This is not a conversation about chasing attention for attention's sake. It is about helping founders make better marketing decisions, ask more of their teams, and build work that earns trust, creates demand, and supports growth. Listen and subscribe if you are a founder or business leader deciding where to invest next and want to make sure your marketing plan is solving a business problem, not just producing more activity.

I've been thinking a lot about my relationship with God. I believe in God. I believe in something greater. But I've realized that believing in God and actually having a relationship with God are two different things for me. In this episode, I get honest about growing up without religion, my complicated history with Christianity, the moments in my life that have felt undeniably spiritual, and why I think I've sometimes avoided a deeper relationship with God. I talk about light and dark, pleasure and addiction, surrender, serendipity, and the idea that our stories may be the place where we see something greater working through us. I also talk about my house burning down, starting over in Costa Rica, the unexpected things that have happened since, and how those experiences have changed the way I see my life and my relationship with God. I share why I've started looking at my story differently and why I think making sense of the painful parts of our lives can help us move from a dark place toward the light. I talk about: ● Why I believe in God but still struggle with my relationship with God. ● Growing up without religion and my complicated relationship with Christianity. ● Why I sometimes felt like I was performing rather than genuinely worshipping. ● The moments in my life that have felt like undeniable “God moments.” ● Why I see light and dark as two different paths we can move toward. ● How pleasure, addiction, and unhealthy choices can pull us toward darkness. ● Why I think serendipity can be a form of light. ● How I've started seeing the events in my life as part of a larger story. ● What my house burning down taught me about surrender and starting over. ● Why I believe our story may be the most valuable thing we ever own. ● How looking back at trauma and painful experiences can help us understand our story. ● Why I'm beginning to wonder if this next chapter of my life is about developing a better relationship with God.

In this episode, I'm talking about one of the biggest lessons secure attachment has taught me: discernment. I share how my past relationship patterns shaped the way I chose love, how I've learned to separate attachment wounds from genuine incompatibility, and why becoming more secure sometimes means choosing self-trust, patience, and alignment over immediate connection.--> Get Personalized Attachment Coaching with Jessica here.

In this episode, Jason shares an unexpected lesson in Lean thinking through his experience eliminating a German cockroach infestation. What started as a household problem became a lesson in constraints, logistics, intelligence, systems, and disciplined execution. Jason explains why attacking every visible problem is less effective than finding the system creating those problems. He connects targeted action, reconnaissance, logistics, root-cause thinking, patience, and maintaining momentum to construction project recovery. The biggest lesson is that lasting success comes from creating an environment where failure can no longer survive. What you'll learn in this episode: Why solving the system constraint is more effective than fighting every individual problem. How field observation and real-time intelligence help teams identify where intervention is actually needed. Why logistics, root-cause removal, and disciplined systems matter more than heroic reactions. How maintaining momentum and creating the right environment can make success sustainable. Are you constantly fighting individual problems, or are you changing the system that keeps producing them?   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two

Somewhere around age twelve, you were told that school would teach you how to learn. It didn't. Sabrina Sussman has two degrees and runs a $3.1 billion program, and she says the skill her whole career runs on is one no classroom ever taught her. Recorded live at the Standard Club in front of the Leadership Society, this episode starts with the lie and lands in the middle of everything happening in Nashville right now. Sabrina is the city's first Chief Program Officer for Choose How You Move, the largest capital program in Nashville's history, and she explains why the question she asks in every job interview is "how do you learn?" She tells the story of the Excel spreadsheet assignment three weeks into her first federal job that turned out to be the invite list for a cabinet secretary's national tour. She explains why Nashville's traffic signals haven't been touched in 60 years, and why a police officer standing at a corner pressing a button called "the pickle" is how downtown traffic gets managed on event nights. She breaks down what your half cent actually buys: 86 miles of sidewalks, nearly 600 smart intersections, safer streets, and more bus service, plus the signal upgrade that lets fire trucks turn lights green before they arrive. She also tells the story she carries into every day of this work: getting hit by a car on a morning run in 2014, half a block from her front door, and the two and a half years of physical therapy where she relearned how to walk, how to run, and how to feel safe on a street. And she describes the three little girls who chalked a hopscotch game onto a sidewalk that didn't exist four weeks earlier, ending with "good job, you're finished."

In this episode of Talking Nutrition, Johan is joined by his friend Katy Margison - nutrition and fitness coach, founder of Athena Nutrition, and known on Instagram as @thesoberweightlifter.After 13 years inside the US healthcare system, Katy walked away from what she calls chronic disease management to coach disease prevention instead. And behind that career change is a bigger story: overcoming alcohol and cocaine addiction, and rebuilding her identity from the ground up. This conversation is about what the hardest form of behavior change teaches us about nutrition, fat loss, social pressure, and becoming the person who follows through. This isn't a lecture on drinking. It's an honest story about what change actually takes.In this episode:Who Katy is: 13 years in healthcare, and why she left to coach prevention instead of disease managementCoaches as the missing piece in preventative healthcare: education, accountability, and more than 15 minutes of your doctor's time"It creeps up on you": pre-gaming everything, the moderation lie, and how 2023 snowballedDecember 15, 2023: rock bottom, and why she still waited until January 1 to quitThe first sober Sunday morning, and what the substances were really covering upWhy food addiction can be even harder: you can quit alcohol, you can't quit eatingTier 1, 2, 3 days: planning for chaos so one bad week doesn't undo everythingWhy maintenance is harder than fat loss, and why comments about your plate are usually projectionWhether alcohol is poison, the culture that glamorizes it, and why we might look at it like cigarettes in 20 yearsThe birth control conversation: 16 years on the pill, and learning to advocate for yourself at the doctor's officeConnect with Katy:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thesoberweightlifterWebsite: https://athena-nutrition.com---Brought to you by Odyssey Coaching Systems@johanvesters_ocs on Instagramwww.odysseycoachingsystems.cojohan@odysseycoachingsystems.co
