You are not the chaos. You are not the fear. You are not the mistake. You are the awareness experiencing it — and that changes everything.Inside this episode:How to detach from painful circumstances without denying themWhy your thoughts are shaping your reality (and how to take control)The hidden gift inside struggleA guided breath to reset your nervous system and step into peaceThe truth about why external success will never fix internal chaosThis isn't about manifesting a million dollars.This is about becoming the version of you who is already whole.If you're an entrepreneur, creator, or high performer who feels the pressure of life tightening around you — this is your reset button.Peace is available.Clarity is available.Freedom is available.The only question is… will you choose it?

If you've been trying to “fix” yourself for years… this episode might change everything.So much of the emotional wellness space is focused on one thing:Getting rid of what's wrong.The anxiety.The stress.The overthinking.The guilt.The burnout.The trauma.And while support matters, here's what's missing:You cannot build a thriving life by only trying to eliminate what hurts.In this episode, I'm teaching a core concept I walk my private clients through — the emotional teeter-totter — and why balance, not eradication, is the real goal.Because life is 50/50.Your brain is wired to scan for danger.And trying to remove every uncomfortable emotion will keep you stuck in survival mode.Instead, we need to learn how to build the other side.Joy.Pleasure.Excitement.Belonging.Desire.Purpose.When you intentionally build those, everything changes.✨ In This Episode, We Talk About:Why “fixing yourself” can actually make you feel worseHow self-help sometimes overemphasizes what's brokenThe 50/50 nature of emotional life (and why it's normal)How your primitive brain keeps you in survival modeThe emotional teeter-totter analogy that explains everythingWhy eliminating stress isn't the goalHow to build emotional capacity instead of avoidanceThe difference between tolerating emotions and processing themWhy creating joy is a skill (not a luxury)How doing hard, scary things on purpose builds empowermentWhy pleasure, excitement, and fulfillment are your responsibility

In this solo episode of Get Scene Unscripted, Jesse Malinowski breaks down five major lessons he's learned from earning over $500,000 as an actor across more than a decade in the industry.Rather than focusing on audition tricks or quick wins, Jesse walks through the deeper patterns that made long-term income possible, including mindset, preparation, and treating acting like a real business.In this episode, Jesse covers:Why a strong support system is essential for longevityHow to mentally prepare for peaks and valleys in an acting careerWhy commercial work is king when it comes to financial stabilityHow actors must create and chase more opportunities, not wait for themWhy “say yes and show up” is one of the most important career principlesJesse also shares personal stories from early bookings, long droughts, commercial runs, and lessons learned from years of consistency — offering a grounded look at what it really takes to build income over time as an actor.

When good people still need too much of you, the issue is rarely capability. It's clarity.Most business owners don't think they have a “bad team.”They like their people. They see potential. They know everyone's trying.And yet, the questions keep coming.The mental load doesn't shift.Holidays still involve Slack, texts, and “just checking” messages.This episode speaks to that uncomfortable middle ground — where the team is good, but the business still leans too heavily on the business owner to think, decide, and catch things.In this solo episode, Paula reframes a common frustration: when a business feels overly dependent on you, it's rarely a motivation or performance issue. It's usually a process gap that's quietly pulling you back into the centre.Drawing on lived experience — including lessons from her own studio days — Paula unpacks the difference between buffering problems and actually solving them. And why blaming people keeps business owners stuck, while examining processes creates relief for everyone involved.This isn't about pushing people harder or expecting more initiative.It's about building a business that doesn't rely on any one person carrying all the thinking.In this episode, we explore:Why “my team is good, but…” is often a process signalHow missing processes quietly keep business owners as the bottleneckThe hidden cost of buffering problems instead of fixing themWhy clarity reduces emotional load for both leaders and teamsHow processes create safety, confidence, and consistencyThe connection between process gaps and profit leaksWhat really changes when leaders blame the process firstA note from PaulaIf this episode has landed, it's likely because you recognise the weight you're carrying — not because your team isn't capable, but because too much still funnels back to you.This is the kind of work I support business owners with in private strategic sessions and in-person leadership days. It's quiet, practical, and grounded in the reality of running a people-led business — not theory.If you're feeling ready to step back and look at what's actually holding the load in your business, you can explore working together via my website.Connect with PaulaPaula Maidens is a Hiring & Team Strategist who helps service-based businesses solve people chaos by connecting people decisions to profit outcomes.Website: https://paulamaidens.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulamaidensconsulting/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulamaidens/

If you've ever said, “I understand why this happened, so I shouldn't still feel upset,” this episode is for you.Alicia explores why so many stepmoms intellectualize their emotions instead of processing them — and how that pattern quietly leads to resentment, burnout, and emotional shutdown.Stepmoms are often praised for being mature, understanding, and “handling things well,” but that praise can come at a cost. When feelings are constantly explained away instead of felt, they don't disappear — they get stored.This episode breaks down the difference between intellectualizing emotions and actually processing them, and why skipping the emotional “ouch” is one of the fastest ways resentment builds in blended families.In this episode, Alicia covers:The difference between understanding emotions and processing themWhy explaining feelings too quickly blocks emotional releaseHow resentment is created from unacknowledged painWhy stepmoms feel pressure to be “the mature one”What to do instead of reframing your feelings out of existenceThis episode offers stepmoms permission to feel first — without justification, explanation, or self-criticism.✨ Resentment to Relief builds directly on this work, teaching stepmoms how to safely feel emotions without spiraling, self-abandoning, or stuffing them down until they explode later.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Allison Alford, social scientist and author of Good Daughtering, to talk about a word that stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it: daughtering.Daughtering is the often invisible emotional, mental, and relational labor that adult daughters perform to keep families connected. It's the planning, the emotional regulation, the phone calls, the checking in, the self-editing, the guilt, and the constant inner pressure to be a “good daughter”—often without realizing how much energy it's actually costing us.If you've ever felt drained after interacting with your parents, struggled with guilt when you try to pull back, or wondered why loving your family can feel so exhausting, this conversation will resonate deeply.In our discussion, Dr. Alford and I explore:What daughtering really is and why it's considered invisible laborWhy adult daughters often feel like they're never doing enoughHow overfunctioning, people-pleasing, and perfectionism show up in family relationshipsWhy guilt is so common for women when they consider setting boundariesHow to create compassionate, flexible boundaries that protect relationships rather than damage themWhy awareness—not cutting people off—is the first powerful step toward changeWe also talk about how small, intentional shifts (not drastic moves or “no contact” ultimatums) can dramatically improve both your quality of life and your family dynamics over time.Dr. Alford's book, Good Daughtering, is now available, and it goes far deeper into these ideas with practical exercises and reflections at the end of each chapter to help you right-size your daughtering in a way that feels aligned, sustainable, and honoring—to both you and your family.If you are a daughter, love a daughter, or are raising one, this episode is a powerful reminder: you are already a good daughter—and your work matters.

Life does not always fall apart in neat, Instagram-worthy ways.Sometimes it blindsides you. Sometimes it knocks the air out of you. Sometimes it leaves your nervous system spinning and your mind searching for answers.In this episode I break down what coaching actually does for you when life kicks you in the junk — not by avoiding pain, but by helping you stay self-led inside of it.I share how I personally navigated a recent season I did not ask for, and the exact mindset and emotional tools that made it possible to stay grounded, connected, and clear when nothing felt easy.This episode is not about positive thinking or fixing yourself. It is about learning how to work with your thoughts and emotions instead of letting them run your life.In this episode, we talk about:Why painful experiences do not mean you are doing life wrongHow coaching helps you stay self-led during hard seasonsThe difference between facts and the stories your brain tellsWhy “neutral” does not mean harmless or okayHow to observe your thoughts and emotions without being consumed by themWhy mindset work does not mean avoiding hard feelingsHow to feel emotions safely instead of suppressing or fixing themThe difference between respecting a thought and agreeing with itWhy not every thought deserves your obedienceThe powerful question that brings you back to yourself when everything feels confusingKey takeaway:You do not need to eliminate hard thoughts or emotions to move forward. You need the ability to stay with yourself, supervise your mind, and choose how you respond — one situation, one thought, one feeling, one choice at a time.That is what coaching builds.Resources:Free Feelings Video + Worksheet: Click HERE to grab it.Jessica's book, In Pursuit Order my #1 New Release book In PursuitGet your complimentary copy of The Unblocked Journal to help bring awareness to perfectionist thinking and what it's creating in your life.Join My Do The Thing Community Want more support?If this episode resonated with you and you want deeper, personalized support, you can learn more about working with me at jessicasmarro.comStay connected:Follow me on Facebook & Instagram: @jessicasmarroShare this episode and tag me with what landed for youIf you enjoyed today's conversation, please follow, rate, and review Unblocked.

AI proof isn't “building trust.” It's getting ignored—or worse, backfiring—because it's generic, gated, and wildly irrelevant. In a world of risk-averse buying committees and AI-driven discovery, your “best case study” might be your biggest liability.In this episode, Jillian Hoefer (Head of Content at UserEvidence) delivers the reality check B2B teams keep dodging: buyers don't need more claims—they need credible, searchable, situation-matched evidence that makes choosing you feel safe. Jillian breaks down why the classic “one giant ROI story for everyone” approach erodes trust, how AI search punishes gated proof, and why the winners in 2026 will treat customer evidence like a living system—not a dusty PDF trophy. If your strategy is “big stat → blast it everywhere,” this one's going to sting (in a helpful way).We also explore:The trust-killer nobody tracks: irrelevant proof that makes buyers think you don't get themWhy evidence belongs at the top of the funnel, not just the “deal's stalling” panic buttonThe “no one gets fired for buying Salesforce” problem—and how proof reduces career-riskThe content moat play: original research + human thought leadership in an age of AI slopHow to repurpose one report into a year of credibility (without turning into a content farm)

How do you actually hear God in a world full of noise?In Week 1 of our Hearing God series, we lay the foundation for the most trusted, reliable way God speaks—His Word. This message isn't about mastering a technique or unlocking a formula. It's about posture. Humility. And learning to recognize God's voice by truly knowing His character.We explore why truth isn't something we define for ourselves, how our experiences can mislead us, and why Scripture isn't primarily informational but deeply relational. Through the story of Samuel, we're reminded that hearing God begins with a simple prayer: “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”You'll hear:Why the Bible holds ultimate authority in our livesHow to read Scripture through the lens of who it's about, not just what it saysWhy proximity to Scripture isn't the same as hearing from GodHow culture's loudest voices compete with God's voice—and how to filter themWhy anyone can hear from God, starting right where they areWhether you're new to faith, feeling spiritually stuck, or wanting to hear God more clearly, this message will help reset your approach to Scripture and invite you into a deeper, daily relationship with Him.Challenge: For the next six weeks, open your Bible every day and pray, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”Don't give up. God still speaks—and His Word is alive.

Attitude is one of those words we use all the time — often in a negative way.“He has an attitude.”“She needs to change her attitude.”But what if attitude wasn't a personality trait? What if it was a skill?In this episode of Let's Go Mental, we explore attitude as a controllable, trainable asset — something that shapes performance, relationships, and opportunities, both in sport and in life.Because while athletes may not control outcomes, decisions, or results, they always control how they show up.In this episode, you'll learn:What attitude really is (and what it's not)Why attitude is one of the first things coaches, parents, and teammates perceiveHow attitude can open doors — or quietly close themWhy attitude is contagious and shapes the environment around youHow small, intentional attitude choices become habits and identityWhy mental training is essential to make attitude consistent, not reactiveWhat parents often underestimate about the impact of their own attitudeThis episode is for:athletes who want to perform with consistency under pressureparents who want to support growth without controllingcoaches who care about culture, trust, and long-term developmentKey takeaway:Attitude is not who you are. It's how you decide to show up. And that decision can be trainedContact me: b_cortella@yahoo.itInstagramLinkedInMy Community

"Diet culture and wellness culture are incredibly convincing. Every new trend is marketed as the most important thing you need to do for your health."Electrolyte supplements and hydration drinks are everywhere right now, being advertised by everyone from TikTok wellness influencers to major podcast sponsors. But how much of this is actually helpful, and how much is just hype? In this episode, I break down the real science behind electrolytes, explain what sodium and potassium actually do in your body, and cut through the fear-based wellness messaging that keeps people confused and stressed. We'll cover recommendations, controversies, and who might actually benefit from electrolyte supplements. You'll get the context you need to understand the numbers without obsessing over them.✅ What You'll Learn:What sodium and potassium actually do in your body, and why they're so essentialWho might benefit from electrolyte supplements, and who probably doesn't need themWhy the latest wellness trends are so convincing...and often misleadingHow your body naturally regulates electrolytes (and when it needs support)The truth about sodium recommendations, chronic disease, and where potassium fits into the pictureWhy it's possible to prioritize hydration and health without falling for diet culture's fear-mongering✨ Struggling to know when to eat or when to stop isn't a failure… it could be a byproduct of following diet rules instead of your body's cues.

January is a hard month in education—and winter often takes the blame.When directors call asking for ideas, strategies, or professional development, what they're often really asking is: How do we support educators through this season?In this episode, we explore what sits beneath those January phone calls and why winter isn't the problem it's made out to be. Rather than offering quick fixes, this conversation focuses on what nature-based educators truly need right now: permission to slow down, validation, strong pedagogy, and reconnection to purpose.This episode is for directors, coaches, and educators navigating the long stretch of winter.In This Episode:Why January feels especially heavy in schoolsWhat schools think educators need vs. what they actually needHow winter reveals cracks rather than creating themWhy resistance is information, not failureThe shift from activities to pedagogy in winterWinter isn't asking educators to try harder.It's asking us to root deeper.Join the Community:Want to continue the conversation, access our workshop library, or collaborate with like-minded educators?

This episode feels like sitting in a garage with friends who are equal parts curious, sarcastic, and done pretending there's one “right” way to use cannabis.Louise drops in and immediately turns the whole thing into a real conversation, not a lecture. From joking about consumption methods to breaking down what actually works for her body, this episode moves through humor, trial-and-error, and the quiet reality that cannabis hits everyone differently.We talk about chasing that one strain that glued you to the couch years ago and never showed up again, why people swear something “does nothing” for them until it suddenly does, and how experimenting responsibly is usually the missing piece when someone says cannabis isn't for them.Louise also opens up about learning dabs the hard way, why bubble hash surprised her, and how fats, timing, and microdosing can completely change the experience. There's an honest conversation about edibles, why they don't always hit, and how tolerance sneaks up on you without asking permission.Somewhere between laughing about old podcast chaos, reminiscing on unhinged guest moments, and swapping real-life tips for heartburn, nausea, and dose control, this episode lands exactly where The Sesh lives, messy, funny, curious, and grounded in real experiences, not cannabis myths.If you've ever thought, “Maybe I'm doing this wrong,” or “Why does everyone else feel this but I don't,” this one's for you.What We Get IntoWhy cannabis experiences are wildly individualDabs vs live rosin vs bubble hash, what actually feels differentThe strain you'll never forget and why you can't find it againHow fats and timing change how THC hitsMicrodosing, tolerance, and why edibles can feel brokenLearning through bad experiences and helping others avoid themWhy the least professional podcasts are sometimes the best onesAbout The SeshThe Sesh is where Cannabis School loosens the tie, lights up, and just talks.

Sensitive women feel deeply — and for many, emotional pain can feel overwhelming, unsafe, or impossible to sit with. There's often a fear that if you really let yourself feel it, you'll fall apart and won't be able to recover.In this episode, I unpack why emotional pain feels so intense for sensitive and neurodivergent women — and why this has nothing to do with being fragile or broken. We explore how emotional overwhelm is actually a capacity issue, not a personal flaw, and how many of the ways we've learned to cope with emotion are protective — but ultimately keep us stuck.This is an honest conversation about emotional overwhelm, overthinking, self-judgment, and how learning to stay with yourself during emotional pain can fundamentally change your relationship with your emotions — and with yourself.In This Episode, We Cover:Why sensitive women often fear fully feeling their emotionsThe difference between emotional pain and emotional overwhelmWhy emotional overwhelm is a capacity issue, not fragilityHow we're taught to fix, explain, or numb emotions instead of feeling themWhy intellectualizing emotions leads to overthinking and burnoutCommon patterns sensitive women use to cope with emotional painHow urgency, meaning-making, and self-judgment intensify emotional painThe difference between managing emotional pain and relating to itWhy emotions don't need to be solved in order to moveHow to separate sensation in the body from the story in the mindWhat it actually looks like to “stay with” an emotionWhy emotional processing should feel quiet, boring, and non-dramaticHow emotional capacity grows through presence, not forceA personal water-skiing story that illustrates how emotional capacity is builtKey TakeawayEmotional pain isn't the problem — being alone inside it is. When you learn how to stay with yourself instead of trying to fix, outrun, or explain your emotions, your capacity grows. Sensitivity stops being something you manage and becomes a strength you can trust.Mentioned in This EpisodeEmotional capacity vs. emotional fragilityClean emotional experience vs. emotional overwhelmSeparating sensation from storyInternal companionship and self-trustPresence as the path to emotional confidenceWork With MeIf this episode resonated and you want support applying this work to your real life, I'd love to talk with you.I currently have space...

Sadly I cannot respond directly to your text, so please Email me!///// RE-RELEASE  /////:This episode is a celebration. A rant. A full-on, heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you. Because we made it—one full year of podcasting.So I did something a little different this time: I brought the meanest, most head-shaking, most ridiculous social media comments I've gotten over the past year—and I read them out loud. Why? Because I think they reflect the exact reasons I do this podcast. I want to talk about the things people are still too uncomfortable to say or ask.So today, we're talking:TSA cock cage security breachesWhether pegging makes you “less of a man”What “real submission” actually looks likeWhy FLR isn't abuseAnd how to bring up your kink to your partner without scaring them awayAnd we're doing it with sarcasm, laughter, truth, and maybe a few four-letter words.

You didn't become a wellness practitioner so you could also be a social media manager, copywriter, tech support, and marketing strategist.And yet, that's exactly what many practitioners are trying to do — all at once.In this episode, I'm sharing the uncomfortable truth about why so many wellness entrepreneurs stay stuck around $3–5K months while feeling completely maxed out… and why the answer isn't doing more.It's focusing on less.I break down why “having it all set up” — the perfect website, polished Instagram, endless backend tweaks — often creates the illusion of progress while quietly stalling income. And I walk you through the 3-focus framework that helped me simplify my priorities, grow to multiple six figures, and build a business that actually supports my life.This episode is especially for wellness practitioners who are busy, skilled, and committed — but know something about how they're building their business needs to change going into 2026.In this episode, you'll learn:Why lack of focus — not lack of discipline — is what keeps most wellness businesses stuckThe difference between being a healer with a business and running a business that supports your workHow to identify your weakest growth link using the Marketing–Sales–Delivery auditThe exact 3 priorities I'm focusing on in 2026 — and how I chose themWhy constant website updates and perfect Instagram feeds often delay income growthHow to choose quarterly business priorities without fear of “getting it wrong”If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building momentum with clarity and intention, this episode will change how you think about growth.Follow me on Instagram →  igniteyourwellnessbusinessReady to work with me?

Send us a textIn this episode, I'm joined by Jenna Schulz, MPT, PhD, a physiotherapist and postdoctoral fellow at the University of British Columbia whose work lives right at the intersection of research and real life. Jenna studies things like inflammation in knee osteoarthritis, female athlete health, and longevity in sport—and more recently, how evidence can actually guide movement during pregnancy and postpartum (not just live in a paper somewhere).Jenna is also a former varsity cross-country and track athlete, which makes this conversation especially grounded. We talk honestly about what returning to movement after baby really looks like, why progress is almost never linear, and how so many moms end up stuck because of unnecessary rules, expectations, or “shoulds.”This is a practical, evidence-informed conversation for both clinicians and moms—focused on removing barriers, using research wisely, and starting where you are right now, not where you think you should be.We talk about:How to think about prescribing exercise during pregnancy and postpartumWhy “movement snacks” and small bouts of activity actually matterStarting where you are (and why that's not settling)Common barriers that stop new moms from moving—and how to lower themWhy non-linear progress is normal, not a failureTranslating research into real-world clinical and everyday practiceIf you're a mom trying to get back into movement—or a clinician supporting women through pregnancy and postpartum—this episode will help you rethink what progress really means and how to make movement feel more doable again.Time Stamps1:00 Introduction4:56 cardio-respiratory fitness in pregnancy & postpartum9:15 starting exercise during pregnancy16:50 nuance around what postpartum can look like20:00 general guidelines rooted in evidence24:50 return to activity graphic30:13 return to sport guidelines in postpartum35:00 FAIR consensus42:10 navigating the research as a clinician54:17 rapid fire questionsCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCONNECT WITH JENNA:Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/the.rungry.researcher/Email: jenna.schulz@ubc.caThe Active Mom Podcast is A Real Moms' Guide to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause & beyond for active moms & the professionals who help them in their journey.

In Part 1 of Rob's conversation with Shaun Reid, they diagnose what's gone sideways in youth sports. Shaun—originally from Wales and a longtime soccer coach—breaks down why the youth sports “system” has drifted from child-centered development toward a pay-to-play business model. Rob and Shaun discuss dropout rates, parent pressure, over-trusting underqualified coaches, and the way “selling a dream” can hijack the purpose of youth sports. Part 2 will focus on solutions.In this episode, we cover:Shaun's background and why he sees youth sports differentlyWhy youth sports has become a “system” with predictable outcomesThe integrity gap: when the business model replaces the kid as the priorityThe impact of parent identity, comparison culture, and social mediaHow young coaches can become “experts” to parents—and spread bad informationThe “selling the dream” problem: promises that don't match realityWhy Rob believes it's not just individual coaches—it's the structure around themWhy this conversation is split into two parts, and what's coming nextKey takeawayIf youth sports is producing rising dropout rates and decreasing participation, it's not an accident. It's the result of incentives and expectations that put adults—often unintentionally—ahead of the child.Next episode (Part 2)Rob and Shaun shift from diagnosis to solutions: practical guidance for parents, realistic development for coaches, and ways to reduce harm inside a pay-to-play reality.

Episode Description:We talk a lot about freedom, boundaries, and choosing yourself—but we don't talk enough about the grief that often comes first. In this episode, Pamela reflects on the quiet loss that can surface when you stop over-explaining, over-accommodating, and abandoning yourself to keep the peace. This conversation isn't about blame or regret—it's about compassion for who you had to be, and clarity about who you no longer need to be as you step into a new season.In this episode, we explore:Why growth can bring grief before reliefLetting go of silence and over-accommodationReframing anger as awarenessHonoring past versions of yourself without returning to themWhy survival strategies don't belong in your next seasonStay Connected:Follow me on Instagram & Threads: @thenotoriouspldbWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thewelldonelifepameladavis1928 Learn more about The Well Done Life: @thewelldonelifepodcastListen to past episodes on all streaming platforms.Thank you for listening.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Active Mom Podcast, I'm joined again by Dr. Rita Deering, PT, DPT, PhD — Associate Professor of Physical Therapy and Director of the Movement Sciences Laboratory at Carroll University. With 18+ years of clinical experience and 15 years specializing in pelvic health, Dr. Deering is a leading researcher in perinatal musculoskeletal health, pregnancy and postpartum exercise, pelvic floor function, and female athlete performance.This conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating the overwhelm of women's health information — clinicians, coaches, athletes, and moms trying to get real answers outside the noise. We dig into how to actually interpret research (not just quote it), what different study types really mean, and how to confidently separate evidence-based guidance from trending misinformation on social media.Whether you're dealing with pelvic floor symptoms, postpartum return to running or lifting, perimenopause changes, or pregnancy athletic performance, this episode brings clarity to the research so you can make informed decisions with confidence.We break down:What “evidence-based” actually means in pelvic health & pregnancy fitnessDifferent types of research (RCTs, systematic reviews, case studies) and how to interpret themWhy outliers in research don't invalidate lived experienceMaking research relatable and useful for everyday moms & athletesHow AI, algorithms, and social media fuel misinformationTranslating research to clinical practice without fear-based messagingWhy respectful, nuanced conversation in women's health actually helps patientsTime Stamps1:00 Introduction3:15 making research accessible7:58 what is PubMed13:50 different types of research18:20 transferring research to the clinic22:44 looking at the studies33:19 different levels of evidence37:04 systematic reviews and meta analysis43:10 changing approach to implementing research48:55 where the funding goes51:20 rapid fire questionsCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCONNECT WITH RITA:IG: https://www.instagram.com/ritadeeringphd/Website: https://www.carrollu.edu/faculty/deering-rita-phdThe Active Mom Podcast is A Real Moms' Guide to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause & beyond for active moms & the professionals who help them in their journey.

My relationship with my body has never been a straight line… maybe you can relate.In this episode of Taking Flight with Megan Holly, we dive deep into body image healing, self-love, body neutrality, and reconnecting with yourself in a world that constantly tells us we're not enough.Whether you're struggling with confidence, navigating body changes, or trying to break free from old stories you picked up in childhood, this episode helps you rewrite the narrative and build a more loving, compassionate relationship with your body.

In this Deep Dive episode of The Trip Lab, we unpack hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol) beyond the oversimplified “LDL bad, HDL good” narrative. We also take a clear-eyed look at the most common concerns people have about statins, what the evidence actually shows, and where these medications fit—and don't fit—within a thoughtful, individualized approach to cardiovascular risk.From there, we explore integrative strategies for managing elevated cholesterol and why, for many patients, lifestyle, metabolic health, and inflammation-targeted interventions may be more effective than medications alone.In this episode, we discuss:Why cholesterol is biologically essential and not inherently pathologicalThe limitations of relying on LDL alone to assess cardiovascular riskHow inflammation, insulin resistance, genetics, hormones, and lifestyle influence lipid metabolismWhen elevated cholesterol truly signals disease—and when it may reflect a compensatory or adaptive responseThe role of advanced markers such as ApoB, Lp(a), hsCRP and CAC scoresWhy risk stratification—not fear-based medicine—should guide clinical decision-makingWhat statins can (and cannot do) and we break down the concerns people have with themWhy integrative approaches (nutrition, exercise, herbal options and mind-body medicine) truly treat the root cause of diseaseThis episode is for clinicians, patients, and anyone looking to move beyond simplistic cholesterol narratives toward a more nuanced, evidence-based understanding of cardiovascular health.

Dance what's in your pockets today — nothing more is required.In This Episode:Pocket 1: The skills you've masteredPocket 2: The skills you're actively developingPocket 3: The skills you haven't learned yetHow skills shift naturally between pocketsWhy dancers never “have everything” and never shouldA healthier way to approach and interpret every competitionIf you've ever worried that you're “missing something” or you're “not ready,” this episode is your permission to breathe.

Do you ever wonder “Why am I still reacting like this when I know better?”You've read the books. You've reframed your thoughts. You've practiced gratitude, breathwork, affirmations, all the mindset tools.Yet the overwhelm, shutdown, anger, people pleasing, or overthinking still show up.In this episode, Leah shares a truth most of us were never taught:✨ Your nervous system moves before your mindset does. Your brain doesn't ask, “What's the most empowering thought?” It asks, “Am I safe?” and your body answers that question faster than thought, logic, or intention.This episode breaks down why mindset alone cannot override biology and why learning about your nervous system is not just helpful, but transformational.Leah walks you through 10 predictable shifts that happen once you understand how your system actually works from dissolving shame, to making better decisions, to setting boundaries without panic, to finally feeling more like yourself again.We'll explore:Why your reactions aren't personal failures but biological protectionWhy affirmations, motivation, and willpower disappear during dysregulationWhy sensations stop feeling scary once you understand themWhy relationships feel easier when you can name your internal stateWhy real resilience is not being unshakeable but being recoverableWhy education is regulation and why you don't have to fix yourself, just understand yourselfLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

Former Marine Susannah Rose Stokes joins me to talk about psychedelics, trauma, and healing.We go deep into what actually happens when people use mushrooms or LSD for trauma recovery and how these experiences can rebuild your mind, body, and soul.You'll hear:What psychedelics do for emotional healing and self-awarenessThe importance of set and setting before any psychedelic experienceHow to integrate after a journey so the healing actually sticksWho psychedelics can help — and who shouldn't take themWhy leading with love creates real transformationIf you're curious about psychedelic therapy, mushrooms for trauma, or healing through consciousness, this episode is for you.

Every day, we're flooded with information–headlines, opinions, advice, noise. And beneath that deluge of input, we carry stories that tell us how we stay safe and what asking questions will cost us.Certainty too often feels like safety. So we rush to respond before we understand and defend before we discern. We don't pause to reflect or to question the loudest voices in the room–proverbial or otherwise.But certainty at the expense of discernment can damage our connections to each other and to ourselves. Leadership that builds connection and trust for the long term requires us to cultivate the courage to ask questions and follow the answers, even when it's uncomfortable. When we catch an old story running the show and stay curious instead of certain, we can metabolize what's driving reactivity and protection. It's how we stay open, grounded, and self-led in a world that rewards reactivity.My guest in this conversation refers to this practice as faithful skepticism: asking hard questions without abandoning hope. When I read his moving essay, “Groomed by the Church: How The Clash Saved My Soul,” I knew I had to invite him here to discuss the importance of refining our discernment and cultivating skepticism as a vital tool for effective leadership. And how music serves as a powerful trailhead–both as a cultural lightning rod and as a catalyst for self-discovery. David Adey is a multimedia artist based in San Diego, CA.

Could a pandemic business-plan lesson for a bored kid spark the next breakout fast-casual brand?This episode moves fast — because Rob Gresham's career has never slowed down. Chris Ressa sits with the restaurant veteran who went from washing dishes at 15 to helping architect the early operational engine behind CAVA's meteoric growth from zero to 80 stores.Rob shares the wild ride: running a steakhouse kitchen as a teenager, getting recruited by Chipotle to fix troubled locations, learning the business side under industry giants, and joining CAVA before it was a household name — building systems, opening markets, and helping scale a brand that eventually went public.Then the pandemic hit. Consulting work vanished. His son was bored. So Rob turned a homeschool project into something much bigger: a business plan for a scratch-made, allergen-conscious chicken concept. When it came time to name it, Rob's son delivered the winner: Isaac's — inspired by Isaac Newton, who invented calculus and discovered gravity while quarantined during the plague. “He changed the world in quarantine,” his son said. “You created a restaurant. Name it Isaac's.”Today, Isaac's Poultry Market has two booming locations, a cult following, and the DNA of a future fast-casual standout. Rob's story is momentum, grit, and timing — the kind Retail Retold was made for.What You'll Hear:How Rob went from washing dishes at 15 to helping scale CAVA into an 80-unit national powerhouseThe pivotal career moves — and mentors — that shaped his operator mindsetWhy he left CAVA at its peak and walked straight into entrepreneurshipThe pandemic moment that sparked Isaac's Poultry Market (and how his son named it)What it really takes to open a restaurant during supply-chain chaos and skyrocketing construction costsHow Rob chose his first two locations — and the real-world negotiation battles behind themWhy exclusives matter, how fast-casual operators think about competition, and the markets he's targeting nextThe scratch-made, allergen-friendly philosophy behind Isaac's menuAnd the big question: Is Isaac's positioned to become the next major fast-casual brand?Chapters00:00 — From Dish Pit to DriveHow a 15-year-old dishwasher discovered his path — and his ambition — in the restaurant world.02:00 — Learning the Business Beyond the KitchenThe mentors and moments that pushed Rob from chef to full-scale operator.04:45 — Chipotle, CAVA, and Fixing What's BrokenRob's early role in stabilizing stores and helping build CAVA's operational backbone from day zero.06:30 — Building a Rocketship BrandCross-country construction sprints, tiny founding teams, and opening stores at breakneck speed.09:00 — The Decision to Walk AwayWhy Rob left CAVA at its peak and refused to transition into an office role.13:00 — Pandemic Curveball → Entrepreneurial BreakthroughHow a business-plan lesson with his son turned into the foundation for Isaac's Poultry Market.14:00 — Naming Isaac's: A Quarantine Stroke of GeniusThe Isaac Newton inspiration that became a bold, meaningful brand name.17:00 — Building Location #1 in a Broken Supply ChainConstruction chaos, blown budgets, and the reality of opening a restaurant during COVID.22:00 — The Battle for Location #2Inside the seven-month negotiation to secure exclusives and protect the emerging brand.29:00 — The Future of Isaac's Poultry MarketHow Rob is approaching growth, second-gen spaces, and...

Parenting in the digital age can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. For this episode, Emily brings in the insight of Ash Brandin for a thoughtful conversation about her book, Power On, and what healthy screen use can actually look like for families. With over 15 years of hands-on experience teaching in the classroom, Ash shares a perspective that moves away from fear and guilt, encouraging parents to think about screens with the same balance and neutrality we often bring to food or other everyday choices.By the end, you'll hopefully have a more compassionate lens for thinking about tech and some practical, flexible ideas for creating a calm, balanced approach to screen time that truly fits with your own family's life.Listen and Learn: How viewing kids' screen time with moral neutrality can help parents move past guilt and fear to understand the real purposes screens serve and the deeper systemic issues driving our reliance on themWhy the old “two-hour screen limit” is outdated and oversimplified, and how a personalized family media plan can lead to healthier, more sustainable screen useReframing of screen time and how systemic factors make it unfair to place all the blame or responsibility on individual parents, and why true change requires collective, not individual, solutionsHow self-determination theory explains kids' relationships with screens, not as addiction but as a way to meet core needs for autonomy, competence, and connection, and how parents can stay neutral, understand what needs are being met, and help kids find healthy, varied ways to fulfill themWhy not everything that releases dopamine is addictive, how our relationship to an activity matters more than the activity itself, and why screens aren't “evil dopamine machines”Resources: Power on: Managing Screen Time to Benefit the Whole Family https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780306836992Ash's Website https://www.thegamereducator.com/Connect with Ashon Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/thegamereducatorhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ash-brandin025For More on Ash's Work, Subscribe to their Substack https://thegamereducator.substack.com/ About Ash BrandinAsh Brandin, EdS, known online as TheGamerEducator, empowers families to make screen time sustainable, manageable, and beneficial for the whole family.
