Your thyroid controls your energy, your metabolism, your testosterone, your mood, and your ability to think clearly. Most doctors are testing it wrong and treating it wrong, and this episode tells you exactly what to do instead. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with McCall McPherson, a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, Modern Weight Loss, and the advocacy platform Thyroid Nation. McPherson has been honored on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 lists and named a 2025 Top 500 Inc. Female Founder. She hosts the Modern Thyroid and Wellness podcast and built her entire practice around thyroid care after being failed by conventional medicine while managing her own hypothyroidism. She treats patients nationwide via telemedicine and has become one of the most trusted voices in functional medicine thyroid care. Dave and McCall expose why standard TSH-only testing catches just 1 to 2 percent of actual thyroid variation, why the medication most doctors prescribe (Synthroid/levothyroxine) fails a massive percentage of patients, and why T3 is the active hormone that mainstream medicine has been trained to fear without good reason. They also get into how fluoride in tap water, bromine in American wheat, mold exposure, dairy, gluten, and oxalates directly suppress thyroid function and drive autoimmunity. If you want to optimize your metabolism, protect your mitochondria, support brain optimization, and stop leaving your longevity on the table, thyroid is the first domino. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, anti-aging, functional medicine, supplements, sleep optimization, and using smarter not harder strategies to take control of your biology. You'll Learn: Why testing TSH alone misses thyroid dysfunction in the vast majority of people What a full thyroid panel actually includes and the optimal ranges for T4, T3, and reverse T3 Why T4-only medications like Synthroid fail and what works better How low thyroid directly tanks testosterone and libido in both men and women The environmental triggers destroying your thyroid, including fluoride, bromine, mold, and inflammatory foods How Hashimoto's connects to broader autoimmune risk and what drives it into remission Why kids are being misdiagnosed with ADHD when the real issue is hypothyroidism The supplements and cofactors (selenium, zinc, magnesium, ashwagandha, tyrosine) that support thyroid activation How thyroid optimization connects to metabolism, dementia prevention, cardiovascular health, and economic outcomes When to use T3 only vs. a T3/T4 combination, and how to know if your dose is off Thank you to our sponsors!

Masami Sato is the Founder and CEO of B1G1 (Buy1Give1), a global giving movement that has helped thousands of businesses turn everyday transactions into acts of generosity. A two-time TEDx speaker and best-selling author, Masami has helped inspire more than 394 million acts of kindness worldwide. Today, Masami shares how a lonely childhood led her to travel the world with little money and even fewer words, how witnessing both poverty and generosity reshaped her understanding of happiness, and how holding her newborn daughter sparked the realization that none of us are too small to make a difference. She explains the simple but powerful idea behind B1G1: what if everyday actions, even something as small as buying a cup of coffee, could change someone else's life? My friends, you'll leave this conversation inspired by the power of small acts, reminded that generosity isn't reserved for the wealthy or powerful, and encouraged to start making a difference today rather than waiting for someday.

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the physical world we see? Or why so many people today feel a deep connection to something bigger than Earth? In this mind-glowing episode of the You-est You® Podcast, I sit down with remote viewer and spiritual teacher Elizabeth April to explore the expanding edges of consciousness from remote viewing to extraterrestrial contact and the idea of starseed origins. Elizabeth shares her personal journey, including a life-changing extraterrestrial encounter that awakened her to the reality that consciousness is far more vast than we've been taught. Yeah…this is not a shallow end of the pool conversation.  We explore questions like: ✨ What remote viewing actually is ✨ The idea of the Galactic Federation ✨ Why many people feel they may be starseeds ✨ How empaths can stay grounded in intense energies (one of my favorites was a simple but powerful technique for empaths) If you're curious about the bigger picture of consciousness, this conversation will absolutely stretch your perspective. If this podcast has touched, moved, or inspired you in any way, thank you for sharing it with those you love and leaving a review if inspired. It helps for more people to find out about these conversations.   And in case you didn't know this, I honor your light and your You-est You, and love you just the way you are.   Takeaways Elizabeth April identifies as a remote viewer, exploring beyond physical reality. Her abduction experience opened her eyes to the reality of extraterrestrials. Growing up in a Catholic household, Elizabeth had unique spiritual experiences. Empathy can lead to overwhelming feelings, requiring grounding techniques. The Galactic Federation is a collective of beings supporting unity consciousness. Personal empowerment is key to navigating spiritual awakening. Distraction from external chaos can hinder personal growth and awareness. Connecting to source reveals the unity of all existence beyond light and dark. Grounding techniques like visualizing a protective bubble can help empaths. Elizabeth's heritage includes connections to the grays and Pleiadians.   About Elizabeth April Elizabeth April is an internationally recognized remote viewer, spiritual teacher, and cosmic channeler who helps people expand their awareness beyond the physical world. Through her teachings on consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and starseed origins, she guides others to reconnect with their intuition, personal empowerment, and deeper connection to the universe.

Courtney Epps, EA, PhD, is the Founder of OTB Tax and a nationally recognized tax strategist, international speaker, and TEDx speaker. With nearly 20 years of experience, she helps entrepreneurs and businesses — from startups to $100 million companies — use strategic tax planning to legally reduce taxes and drive financial growth. She is also the Founder of Tax Rebels, an educational platform and community that teaches entrepreneurs how to use proactive tax strategies to keep more of what they earn. Courtney is the best-selling author of More Relaxing, Less Taxing and What's Your Plan B?. In this episode… Taxes are often treated as an unavoidable cost of doing business, something entrepreneurs simply accept each year. But what if many business owners are paying far more than they legally need to? The real question is: are you using the strategies that allow you to keep more of what you earn? For Courtney Epps, a recognized tax strategist and financial educator, many entrepreneurs miss key opportunities to legally reduce their tax burden. She explains that common mistakes, such as improper business structure, incorrect salary payments, and overlooking eligible deductions, can cost business owners tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. Courtney highlights strategies such as the Augusta Rule, which allows business owners to rent their homes to their companies tax-free, and hiring children in the business to shift income into lower tax brackets. When used correctly, these strategies help entrepreneurs keep more of their income and accelerate long-term wealth building while making tax planning a critical financial priority. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Courtney Epps, Founder of OTB Tax, to discuss smart tax strategies every business owner should know. They explore common tax mistakes entrepreneurs make, how strategies like the Augusta Rule and hiring your kids can reduce taxes, and why tax planning should be a top financial priority. Courtney also shares real-world examples of saving clients millions through advanced charitable tax strategies.

This encore presentation revisits our conversation with Natasha Miller Williams, a speaker and writer who brings data and insight together to advance the conversation about inclusion in the workplace. Together we explore a powerful idea: one person can challenge an established system.We talk about why systems inside organizations often continue long after they stop serving people well, and how leaders at every level can begin shifting them. Natasha introduces the S.E.E.R. approach: See, Expect, Express, Repeat. It offers a practical way to recognize unfair or unbalanced systems, speak up with clarity, and stay committed to change even when resistance appears.We also discuss the responsibility leaders have to create environments where people feel safe sharing perspectives that may be unpopular or overlooked. When leaders listen with empathy and act on what they hear, they strengthen trust and open the door for better decisions.This conversation reminds us that meaningful change often begins with one voice choosing to speak.Key HighlightsOne Voice Can Start Change – We explore how any leader, regardless of title, can challenge systems by speaking up and sharing a perspective that may not yet be represented in the room.Awareness Comes First – We learn why noticing whose voices are heard and whose are missing is the first step toward creating more balanced and inclusive systems.Clarity Drives Better Outcomes – We discuss the importance of knowing the outcome we expect when challenging a system so conversations stay focused on meaningful change.Communication Shapes Influence – We look at how understanding what others value helps us express ideas in ways that increase the chances they will be heard and acted on.Persistence Creates Momentum – We reflect on why challenging systems requires patience, support from others, and the courage to keep going when change takes time.About the Guest:Natasha Miller Williams is a speaker and a writer who brings data and insights together to advance the conversation on inclusion in the workplace.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sat down with Kaylee Chu, and we talked about one of the most powerful personal transformation stories I've heard in a long time. Kaylee started out extremely introverted, struggling with confidence after immigrating from Hong Kong to Australia. For years she stayed in a small bubble, avoiding conversations and feeling like she didn't belong - until one moment of embarrassment in a meeting pushed her to do something radical: schedule 100 lunches with 100 strangers. What started as a simple New Year's resolution turned into a life-changing experiment. Those lunches didn't just help her learn how to talk to people - they opened doors to mentors, business partners, and opportunities she never imagined. One connection led to writing a book, which led to her first speaking opportunity, which quickly turned into a full-time career traveling and inspiring audiences around the world. It's a powerful reminder that sometimes the fastest way to change your life is to step outside your comfort zone and start connecting with people. Key Highlights: ◼️The “100 Lunches with Strangers” experiment that helped Kaylee overcome extreme introversion and build life-changing relationships ◼️How one unexpected connection encouraged her to write a book - which eventually led to her first speaking opportunities ◼️The behind-the-scenes story of how she transitioned from a shy financial planner to a full-time keynote speaker ◼️The difference between keynote presentations, webinars, and TEDx talks - and why a TEDx talk focuses on a single “idea worth spreading” ◼️How Kaylee and her team created the Next Top Speaker competition to give everyday people a platform to craft and share their stories We also talk about why speaking is one of the most valuable skills any entrepreneur can develop, how telling your story can unlock opportunities you never expected, and why the people who succeed are the ones who simply make commitments - and keep them. If you've ever wanted to share your message, step onto a stage, or just become more confident connecting with people, this episode will inspire you to start. ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

Today I'm joined by returning guest Tiffany Hawk - author, book coach, and longtime collaborator - to talk about why sharing your story matters, especially when you don't feel ready.We explore how many accomplished professionals get stuck in what I call the “expert trap”, relying on expertise and credentials while holding back the personal stories that actually create connection.Tiffany shares insights from her work helping women write meaningful books, along with her own journey of returning to writing after years of self-doubt.We also talk about the messy reality of creativity, why the first draft is rarely pretty, and how community and accountability can make all the difference when you're working on a book, talk, or other thought leadership project.This conversation is especially meaningful during Women's History Month, as we reflect on the power of women using their voices to tell the stories that shape culture and create change. Tiffany and I talk about:Why expertise alone doesn't create connectionThe role of vulnerability in thought leadershipWhy you shouldn't wait until your ideas feel perfectHow storytelling helps audiences see themselves in your messageThe creative process behind writing a bookWe also share details about our Story to Spotlight writing and speaking retreat in Spain this Fall 2026, where we'll help women develop their ideas, stories, and thought leadership in a supportive environment.

In Episode 104 of the Thoughts From the Couch podcast, host Justine Carino sits down with TEDx speaker and lovescaping founder Irene Greaves for a grounded and practical conversation about where we first learn how to love, and how those early lessons shape our adult relationships.This episode explores the powerful question, “Where did you learn to love?” and unpacks how family of origin, culture, and early experiences quietly form our blueprint for connection. Justine and Irene discuss how love is often misunderstood as a feeling rather than a skill, and how mismatched definitions of love can create conflict in romantic relationships, friendships, and even workplace dynamics.Through clinical insight and real-life examples, Justine connects Irene's 15 pillars of lovescaping, including humility, empathy, communication, trust, and boundaries, to the patterns she sees in therapy every day. The conversation highlights how a lack of self-awareness, difficulty identifying needs, and struggles with boundaries often stem from early conditioning, not personal failure.Listeners will walk away with a fresh perspective on love as an intentional practice rather than a passive experience. The episode offers tangible tools for building self-respect, strengthening communication, leading with empathy, and creating healthier dynamics at home and at work.Connect with Irene Greaves:Instagram: @lovescaping Website: www.lovescaping.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/lovescaping/ Promotion:Two Moons (use code Justine30): https://twomoonshealth.co/The guide every couple needs: https://www.eliweinsteinlcsw.com/book Learn more about Balanced Boss Coaching: https://www.justinecarino.com/the-balanced-bossTake the Balanced Boss Burnout Assessment: https://www.justinecarino.com/the-balanced-boss-burnout-assessment

Kendall Berg was the most productive person on every team she joined. She was so technically good at her job that she thought she didn't have to be nice. Then a VP she respected -- someone outside her chain of command -- pulled her aside and delivered six words that changed her career: "Nobody likes working with you." Episode page with links, video, and more That blunt feedback could have been a setback. Instead, it became the catalyst for a complete transformation. Kendall spent a year building structured templates for the soft skills nobody had ever taught her -- how to make small talk, how to disagree without being dismissive, how to advocate for her own work -- and went from stuck at the manager level to earning five promotions in six years. In this episode, Kendall shares her favorite mistake and what she learned about the real reasons people get promoted (and don't). We talk about why "playing politics" deserves a reframe, why nobody actually wants to work in a true meritocracy, and the "acknowledge and respond" technique that changes how people receive your ideas. She also shares how she turned a team of 17 underperformers into high performers by giving them something most managers never provide: structure for soft skills. Kendall Berg is an internationally published author, TEDx speaker, and career coach. Her book is Secrets of the Career Game: 36 Strategies to Get Ahead In Your Career. Her TEDx talk is The Clash of the Generations. Find her at ThatCareerCoach.net.

What if burnout isn't just about working too hard—but about thinking the wrong way? That's the argument Dr. André Walton makes through two decades of research and work with organizations like NASA, Virgin Group, and The Smithsonian. A social psychologist and creator of the Banish Burnout™ framework, Dr. André reveals that the modern world trains us to think deductively and analytically, starving the creative neural pathways that fuel emotional intelligence and resilience. In this conversation, he explains the early signs that creative thinking is being compromised, what divergent and convergent thinking actually mean, and how restoring balance can rewire stress into sustainable flow.

A trauma-trained psychotherapist, grief and loss specialist, TEDx speaker, host of Grief Is My Side Hustle, and author and creator of the Grief Mentor Method, Meghan brings both expertise and refreshing honesty to every conversation. If you struggled after your care partner died with what you witnessed, felt traumatized, or are unsure of who you are or how to move forward, this episode is for you. We explore why end-of-life caregiving can be genuinely traumatic, how our bodies hold grief, the stories we get trapped inside, and how to know when what you're carrying is more than ordinary loss. Her tell-it-like-it-is style will help you better understand your grief, and yourself. Meghan Riordan Jarvis Daughterhood TRANSCRIPT

Curiosity isn't a "soft skill"-it's a strategic superpower for growth. In this episode, Donald Thompson sits down with leadership strategist and researcher Dr. Debra Clary to discuss her upcoming book, The Curiosity Curve. Drawing from four decades of experience at iconic brands like Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, and Jack Daniels, Debra explains why the most successful leaders ask the best questions, why curiosity is the key to thriving in an AI-driven world, and how we can unlearn the "incuriosity" taught to us since childhood.Episode Long DescriptionSuccess is often born in the most unlikely of classrooms. For Dr. Debra Clary, that classroom was a Frito-Lay route truck. In this episode of High Octane Leadership, Donald and Debra deconstruct the journey from driving a delivery route to performing a one-woman show off-Broadway and leading billion-dollar brands.They dive deep into the "curiosity gap" currently facing organizations and why psychological safety is inextricably linked to a leader's ability to say, "I don't know." Whether you're navigating the complexities of AI or trying to lead a team through burnout, this conversation provides a blueprint for using wonder as a tool for high performance.Key Talking Points:The Route Truck Masterclass: Why starting at the bottom provided a competitive advantage that no MBA could match.Curiosity vs. Incuriosity: How societal "warnings" like Pandora's Box have conditioned leaders to stop asking questions.The AI Connection: Why prompt engineering is actually just structured curiosity.The Bold Question: The specific 5-word question that can unlock any stuck organization.Borrowing Courage: How Debra's peers pushed her onto an off-Broadway stage and the lesson it holds for every leader.About the GuestDr. Debra Clary is a leadership strategist, researcher, and viral TEDx speaker with over 40 years of experience at Fortune 40 companies, including Coca-Cola and PepsiCo. She holds a doctorate in leadership and organizational development and is the author of the book, The Curiosity Curve. Beyond the boardroom, Debra is a storyteller and performer who successfully launched a one-woman show after being "booked" by her own mastermind group, -a true testament to the power of borrowing courage from those who believe in you.ResourcesDr. Debra ClaryWebsite: debraclary.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drdebraclary/Stay connected with Donald: Get Donald's newsletter that is packed with actionable insights, and the kind of straight-talk leadership intelligence that helps build authority, drive performance, and stay ahead of what is coming next: donaldthompson.comConnect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donaldthompsonjrSubscribe on SubStack: https://substack.com/@donaldthompsonjr High Octane Leadership is hosted by The Diversity Movement CEO and executive coach Donald Thompson and is a production of Earfluence.Order UNDERESTIMATED: A CEO'S UNLIKELY PATH TO SUCCESS, by Donald Thompson.

Welcome to season four of Restorative Works! Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Johari "J.P." Mitchell for a discussion around positive self-talk, children's literature, and how the power of storytelling helps shape how we relate to ourselves and one another.  J.P. explores how children's literature, especially picture books, can serve as a restorative practices tool across all ages. She emphasizes the concept of restorative practices-rooted self-talk: the internal narratives we use to make sense of shame, grief, identity, and belonging. J.P. illustrates how stories offer young people and adults pro-social alternatives to dealing with shame. She explains how picture books act as mirrors and windows, reflecting our inner lives while inviting us to step into experiences we may not yet have lived. Through age-appropriate storytelling, children gain language for complex emotions like loss, difference, and empathy long before crisis arrives. This proactive exposure builds emotional literacy, resilience, and relational capacity.  The episode also challenges the assumption that children's books are only for children. J.P. and Claire reflect on how picture books speak powerfully to adults, educators, parents, and leaders by reconnecting us to the "child within" and creating space for intergenerational dialogue. From navigating grief to understanding identity and difference, children's literature becomes a shared entry point for meaningful, restorative conversations.  Johari "J.P." Mitchell is an educator, writer and speaker whose passion is helping leaders link vision to opportunity through the power of words. J.P. is a restorative practices trainer with Columbus City Schools, as well as a 2-time TEDx speaker, author, and Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach. She lives in Columbus, Ohio with her family.  Tune in to learn how to become a friend of children's literature, not just a consumer, and use stories as a bridge to stronger relationships and healthier communities. 

Why does friendship feel like an intuitive gift for some, but a complex, manual process for others? This week, Emily Kircher-Morris sits down with social-emotional learning expert Caroline Maguire, author of the award-winning Why Will No One Play With Me? and the upcoming Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults. The conversation dismantles the harmful narrative that connection should happen organically, reframing social struggles not as character flaws, but as understandable skill gaps influenced by executive dysfunction and past trauma. They talk about the concept of "Middle School Caroline," the inner child who reacts to perceived slights with high-alert protection, and suggest advice on unmasking, managing rejection sensitivity, and finding "your people" who value compassion over perfect social performance. TAKEAWAYS The "friendship should be easy" narrative fuels unnecessary shame. Connection is a complex skill set, not an innate character trait. Executive dysfunction directly impacts the logistical and emotional labor of maintaining adult relationships. Rejection Sensitivity (RSD) often functions as a protective mechanism whose past social trauma colors present-day perceptions. Unmasking in friendships is a gradual spectrum that requires identifying safe people rather than an all-or-nothing disclosure. Neurodivergent social strengths like info-dumping and deep empathy are valid forms of connection that deserve recognition and framing, rather than suppression. Neurodivergent adults often base social perceptions on the most recent interaction, making objectivity and evidence-based thinking vital for relationship stability. Mental health professionals, join us for our upcoming training, Interpreting Autism Assessment Data in High-Masking and Under-Identified Presentations. Dr. Taylor Day is the presenter, and it will be held Friday, April 3 at 2:00 PM Eastern. If you can't make it live, the recorded self-study version will be available shortly after the live event. It's approved for both APA and NBCC continuing ed hours. You can register here. Caroline Maguire, M.Ed., PCC is an internationally recognized expert in social-emotional learning, ADHD coaching, and relationship development. She is the author of the award-winning book Why Will No One Play with Me? and the upcoming Friendship Skills for Neurodivergent Adults (Balance Books, April 2026). As the host of The ADHD Social Playbook podcast, Caroline helps neurodivergent individuals build the confidence and connection skills needed to thrive in relationships. A coach, educator, and sought-after speaker, Caroline developed a comprehensive SEL training methodology used by parents, clinicians, and educators to foster self-awareness, emotional regulation, and meaningful social interactions. She is the founder of the family-focused coach training program at the ADD Coach Academy, and brings both professional expertise and personal insight to her work as a neurodivergent person with ADHD, dyslexia, and learning disabilities. Her work has been featured by TEDx, ADDitude, WebMD, MindBodyGreen, and more.

Weight feels like one of those topics everyone has an opinion on, yet it's deeply personal for each of us. So, for this episode, Emily and Jill take the opportunity to dig into what it's like to navigate body changes in a world full of strong opinions, from the rise of GLP-1 medications to the stigma that can come with medical or surgical interventions.Jill opens up about her own journey with weight, body image, and ultimately deciding to have gastric bypass surgery, including what's shifted for her since, physically, emotionally, and socially. They also talk about the judgment people can face, how conversations about health often get reduced to discipline or willpower, and also zoom out to explore the bigger cultural messages about bodies and how therapists can support clients in talking about weight in ways that move beyond shame or “fixing.” Listen and Learn: Why shame, Yo-yo dieting, and a surprising therapy session insight led Jill to discover a life-changing path that transformed her health, mindset, and relationship with exerciseWhy the idea that weight loss tools are “cheating” reveals deeper cultural biases about bodies, health, and who gets judged for the choices they makeHow constant pressure on women's bodies may actually distract from power, health, and autonomy in ways most people never questionFocusing on values instead of weight loss goals to help you stop postponing the life you want to liveHow changing your relationship with cravings and “food noise” through psychological flexibility can make long-term weight loss maintenance more possibleResources: Jill's Website: https://jillstoddard.comConnect with Jill on Social Media https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNDJ6pR5PVGZSSzRFc556QAhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jillstoddardphd/ About Jill Stoddard Jill Stoddard is passionate about sharing science-backed ideas from psychology to help people thrive.

Aaron Golub is a professional speaker, entrepreneur, and leadership consultant who made history as the first legally blind Division I athlete to play in a college football game while competing at Tulane University, where he was later named team captain and went on to become an NFL free agent. Born legally blind, Aaron learned early that success requires a different relationship with adversity. Instead of focusing on what he couldn't control, he built his mindset around maximizing what he could. His journey reflects a powerful truth: when you commit to doing what others won't, you give yourself the opportunity to achieve what others can't. Rather than viewing his blindness as a limitation, Aaron now sees it as one of his greatest advantages. His story challenges how we think about setbacks and reminds us that life doesn't just happen to us — often, it happens for us. Today, Aaron works with organizations, teams, and leaders to build resilient cultures and leadership strategies that thrive in adversity. His work has been featured on major platforms including Good Morning America, CBS, NBC, Sports Illustrated, The New York Times, NPR, and Entrepreneur. As the title of his TEDx talk suggests, Aaron Golub is truly a Diamond in his Disadvantage. In this conversation, we explore how perspective, discipline, and ownership of the controllables can transform adversity into opportunity. @aaronjgolub

Paul Pape is a creative problem navigator, TEDx speaker, and author known as “Santa for Nerds.” Over the past 20 years, he has built a reputation as the specialty artist companies like Disney, Universal, and Nickelodeon call when they need something that doesn't exist or their internal teams can't build. Working from his Nebraska studio, Paul creates custom collectibles, props, and prototypes with tight deadlines and exacting standards. Paul is the creator of Gamify Business and author of The Creative Player's Handbook to Business, which translates intimidating business concepts into gaming language that creative minds actually understand. Through his books, workshops, and coaching, he helps entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses without sacrificing their creative souls, proving that the “starving artist” stereotype is outdated and unnecessary. Paul first appeared on Follow Your Curiosity in September 2024, and I invited him to come back to tell us about his new Gamify Business program. Paul talks with me about how he recognized the need for a more creative metaphor for entrepreneurship; the danger of losing touch with your passion as your creative business grows; how the focus on what's NOT possible, plus the constant need to ask permission—even as a adults—can get in our way, and a whole lot more. If you've ever been intimidated by the idea of starting a business, especially as a creative, this episode is for you.   Episode breakdown: 00:00 Introduction. 04:10 Using Dungeons and Dragons to explain creative business roles. 08:18 Leveling up business skills with gaming metaphors. 12:00 Business isn't selling out; creatives deserve a livable wage. 16:05 Building the book through stories and personal experience. 20:13 Learning entrepreneurship by adapting methods to suit yourself. 24:10 Gatekeeping of business concepts and simplifying with new language. 28:47 Kids embrace entrepreneurship because they haven't been told no. 32:27 Making a fool of yourself helps growth and confidence. 37:08 Confidence from passion attracts opportunities and like-minded people. 41:57 The tipping point: when passion becomes a draining job. 46:53 Failing is natural; our schooling overemphasizes perfection. 51:25 Coaching, permission, and feeling proud support creative entrepreneurship. 56:29 Rediscovering fun and permission helps creativity thrive.   Want more?

Durante muchos años yo admiraba profundamente a las personas que podían subir a un escenario y hablar con seguridad. Me preguntaba cómo lo hacían, cómo lograban transmitir un mensaje con tanta claridad, emoción y presencia. Con el tiempo, después de muchas conferencias, errores, nervios y aprendizaje, fui descubriendo algo importante: hablar en público no es un talento reservado para unos cuantos, es una habilidad que se puede desarrollar.   En este episodio quiero compartirte los tres pilares que más me han ayudado a comunicarme con seguridad frente a una audiencia: el propósito, la preparación y la presencia. Hablamos de cómo conectar con el mensaje que quieres transmitir, cómo prepararte realmente para sentir confianza cuando llegue el momento y cómo usar tu presencia, tu energía y tu lenguaje corporal para que tu mensaje tenga impacto.   Espero te sirva Darling!

Rebellious Success: Failure, Bigger Games, and Playing Full OutGuest: Toni Will | Host: Julie Riga | Stay On Course PodcastWhat if failure was your greatest leadership asset? In this bold and energizing episode, Julie Riga sits down with Toni Will, a two-time Guinness World Record holder, General Manager of the Kalamazoo Wings, TEDx speaker, entrepreneur, and author of the upcoming book Rebellious Success. Toni brings contagious energy and hard-won wisdom to a conversation about competence, confidence, and what it truly means to step into your bigger game. She shares her framework for building self-trust through failure, explains why playing small keeps everyone around you stuck, and challenges listeners to declare a bigger game before they feel ready to do it.Rebellious Success: Failure, Bigger Games, and Playing Full OutAbout This EpisodeToni Will is a powerhouse leader who blends elite performance with hard-earned connection, proving that competence and community can coexist. As General Manager of a men's professional hockey team, a professional development coach, and a soon-to-be published author, Toni lives at the intersection of leadership, resilience, and authentic growth. In this episode, she and Julie dig into three transformative ingredients for success that challenge everything you thought you knew about failure, purpose, and personal evolution.Fun Fact: Toni's favorite food is sushi, anything from the grocery store all the way up to fresh-caught in Hawaii.Three Ingredients for SuccessInvite Failure to the Table: Failure is not the opposite of success. Quitting is. The failure resume asks you to write down everything you have walked through and survived. What emerges is not a record of loss but a portrait of resilience, self-trust, and wisdom. When you stop fearing failure and start inviting it, it becomes one of your greatest tools for growth, confidence, and transformation.Stop Playing Small: Because Someone Else Is Playing small to make others comfortable keeps everyone stuck, including you. Authentic leadership means showing up fully, reading the room with emotional intelligence, and never beginning from a diminished version of yourself. Rising tides lift all ships. Collaboration grounded in core values is always stronger than competition driven by fear.Declare a Bigger Game: Growth does not always mean moving up. Sometimes it means growing out. Every micro-decision you make each day either aligns with your next level or holds you back from it. Act from the next level now. Ask not only what something costs you to pursue, but what it costs you to stay exactly where you are.Memorable Quotes"The only time you are failing is when you quit trying." "Stop playing small because someone else is." "The story we tell ourselves about ourselves gets in the room before we do." "What is the cost if I do not do it? Because there is always a cost."Key TakeawaysBuild a failure resume and transform it into your record of courage and growthStop playing small. Full authentic presence is a leadership skillDeclare your bigger game before you feel ready and lead from that placeAlign your actions with core values to unlock clarity, confidence, and self-trustInvest in yourself.

Apply the Work of Byron Katie by using the four questions in moments of conflict to inject mindfulness. Take 17 seconds in conflict to broaden your perspective before responding. Address behavioral change by intentionally changing elements of your environment, including the people you spend time with.   "There's no behavioral change without addressing the environment.” — Keren Eldad   Connect with Keren Eldad:   Website: https://kereneldad.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgGViwGVn_yrHkq3PQ9R_-Q LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/keren-eldad/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LiveWithEnthusiasm Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachkeren Book: GILDED: https://www.amazon.com/Gilded-Breaking-Ambition-Perfectionism-Relentless/dp/1684817579     See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
