Today Eryn Lynum joins me to share about the beautiful connection between nature and rest. Sabbath has become such a hot topic right now but Eryn had to learn from age 14 how to rest like her life depended on it when she was diagnosed with Addison's disease. She is now a homeschooling mom of four, a master naturalist, author, and business owner. Her family is committed to their family values and weekly sabbath amid a very full life. She reminds us of some deep ancient truths that God created us to fully live and gives us tools to find new rhythms. We explore: How Jesus taught through nature The meaning of “Shabbat” — to stop and to delight How to build in Selah pauses (even if you only have 5 minutes!) God meant for the sabbath to be a celebration, not a stuffy rule following day  Rest is the perfection of vital activity- what is vital in this season for your family  Connect with Eryn Lynum:  Website:  Eryn Lynum Author Facebook: Eryn Lynum Author and Speaker Instagram:  Eryn Lynum | Master Naturalist and Author (@erynlynumauthor) Links Mentioned:   The Nature of Rest: By Eryn Lynum Nat Theo Podcast | Eryn Lynum Rooted in Wonder: By Eryn Lynum Tired of Being Tired: By Jess Connolly Related Episodes: Sidetracked with Jess Connolly :: Cynthia and Heather [Ep 484] Which Type of Rest Do You Need? :: Saundra Dalton-Smith [Ep 209] Thinking Differently about Sabbath :: Shelly Miller [Ep 181] Featured Sponsors:  Gabb–Protecting your kids has never been easier.

Have you ever felt like you don't fit in… like you see what's wrong in the system but no one else does? That's not a flaw—it's a calling. In this episode of MindBody TV, I explore what it means to be a disrupter—someone who's here to challenge outdated ways of thinking, living, and healing—and why your challenges, illness, or breakdowns may actually be activating your purpose. Many of us were taught that our sensitivity, our resistance to doing things “the normal way,” or even our chronic symptoms were a problem. But what if they're actually the invitation to wake up and lead? I'll also guide you through a powerful exercise to discover what you're truly here to disrupt—whether it's a belief, a system, or a way of life that no longer serves. When you say yes to your role as a disrupter, you don't just heal—you become a catalyst for healing in the world. Ready to rise into your purpose?

Send us a textSo many women blame themselves for their people-pleasing tendencies–I can't speak up, I apologize too much, I have to avoid conflict at all costs. If you've ever had thoughts like these, the first thing I want you to know is that it's not your fault, and there is nothing wrong with you. We've lived our entire lives in a patriarchal system that shapes how we think about ourselves as women. In this episode, I give you a peek behind the curtain of that unconscious operating system and provide a framework to explore–and change–the tendencies that lead us to believe there's something wrong with us. Here's what I cover:The unconscious limitations we have due to our programmingHow our behaviors are shaped by a constant interplay between conscious and unconscious thoughtsSeveral examples of how to reframe self-critical thoughts so you can feel better, not worseThe importance of tuning into your body while practicing new thoughtsA visualization to help you reach toward the mindset you want—not the one you inheritedHow imagining a younger version of yourself can build self-compassionI can't wait for you to listen.Find Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

After the elections, I started asking congressional Democrats the same question: If the elections had gone the other way, if they had won a trifecta, what would be their first big bill? In almost every case, they said they didn't know. That's a problem.Democrats are in the opposition now. That means fighting the worst of what Trump is doing. But it also means providing an alternative. So one thing I'm going to do this year is talk to Democrats who are trying to find that alternative — an agenda that meets the challenges of the moment, not just one carried from the past.Representative Jake Auchincloss of Massachusetts is the first up to bat. We spoke in January, so we don't cover the latest Trump news. The conversation is really focused on his ideas, and he has a lot of interesting ones — about the abundance agenda, the attention economy and how Democrats should talk about policy during a second Trump term. I don't necessarily agree with every idea he offers, but he's definitely wrestling with that question I posed to other Democrats: What is your alternative?This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“The Problem With Everything-Bagel Liberalism” by Ezra KleinBook Recommendations:“How Mathematics Built the Modern World” by Bo Malmberg and Hannes MalmbergRadical Markets by Eric A.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Andy Clinton, CEO of Visit York County. He discusses why youth sports tourism is so important to his community and how reaching out to other successful destinations for inspiration has helped them build their visitor numbers. Andy also shares the details of the innovative strategies that Visit York County uses to grow traffic to their website, increasing it from 500,000 to over 2 million page views annually. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why youth sports tourism is crucial for York County and how the community leverages its local assets to attract major events How Visit York County collaborates with local partners like the Chamber of Commerce and economic development organizations to enhance overall community marketing Why short-form videos and digestible blogs are vital for engagement and how they have transformed their digital presence Andy's approach to benchmarking and reaching out to other successful destinations for inspiration and best practices How Visit York County uses geolocation data to provide unique insights to local businesses Youth Sports Tourism One of the central themes Andy discussed was the burgeoning field of youth sports tourism. York County's various state-of-the-art sports facilities, including a nine-court basketball facility and softball complexes, position it as a prime location for national and international sports events. With events like the Adidas 3SSB basketball circuit and the NCAA Cross Country Southeast Regionals, the county has been able to attract substantial hotel bookings. Andy stressed the impact of accessibility on their success, particularly the convenience offered by the nearby Charlotte Douglas International Airport. This airport's proximity allows for easy travel, attracting teams and visitors nationwide. Focusing on Collaborations Andy shares how Visit York County collaborates with the York County Chamber of Commerce and the county's economic development department to build united marketing efforts. Their partnership ensures that they present a cohesive message that promotes the county as a tourist destination and a vibrant community with ample business opportunities. We also discuss how Visit York County uses geolocation data to provide unique insights to local businesses. By analyzing mobile location data, they can report detailed information about their customer base to restaurant and brewery owners, such as the percentage of visitors from outside the county and the number of different states that customers are coming from.

Welcome to Poetically Yours. Poetically Yours showcases poems by northern Illinois poets. This week's featured poet is Judy Cummings.

My wife often jokes that I read 4-5 books simultaneously. It's true! If you own a digital book reader or use an audiobook app like Audible to consume books, then you've probably jumped between a title or two as well, depending on your mood.   By Editor, Concierge Medicine Today   I personally love bouncing between a few titles and topics. I think the secret is listening or reading one chapter at a time once or twice a week! Then, I jump onto a podcast path, perhaps with a similar author I find interesting in the car or during a workout.   But finding the right balance between learning and pleasure is important, especially FOR Doctors!   Reading a few books simultaneously helps me avoid getting stuck or bored. If a book or a chapter is too slow, allow yourself to skip a track or jump a few pages. Life is too short, and there are too many great books to push through painfully.   Throughout nearly the past two decades here at Concierge Medicine Today, we compiled a list of books that either I've read and found helpful or your peers and those we've interviewed over the years here at Concierge Medicine Today, our conference, the Concierge Medicine Forum, or our podcast, The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast, have been recommended to us on this topic.   Note: If you're specifically only looking for books about Concierge Medicine, we included a few recommendations at the end of the article we would offer for your consideration as well.    In keeping with what we've learned today … “The best leaders are readers!” — here are some of the titles your peers have mentioned and a few more books that have come across our path we recommend Physicians consider —   Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection" by Charles Duhigg" "Radical Candor: Fully Revised & Updated Edition: Be a Kick-Ass Boss Without Losing Your Humanity" Hardcover – Big Book, October 1, 2019 by Kim Scott "No More Waiting Rooms: A Customer Service Road Map to Help Remarkable Medical Offices Navigate Their Way Towards an Irresistible Practice Where Gratitude Is on Repeat!" by Michael Tetreault "Counterclockwise: Using Peptides to Renew, Rejuvenate, and Rediscover" by Dr. Suzanne J Ferree "Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less" Paperback – December 29, 2020 by Greg McKeown (Author) "Designing for Health: The Human-Centered Approach" Hardcover – November 13, 2023 by Craig Joseph (Author), Jerome Pagani (Author) "Untangle Your Emotions: Naming What You Feel and Knowing What to Do About It" Hardcover – February 13, 2024 by Jennie Allen (Author) "Unstoppable Brain: The New Neuroscience that Frees Us from Failure, Eases Our Stress, and Creates Lasting Change" Hardcover – April 30, 2024 by Kyra Bobinet (Author) "Today Matters: 12 Daily Practices to Guarantee Tomorrow's Success" by John C.

What if you grew up being told by others (including your school teachers) that you would never amount to anything because of a neurodevelopmental condition?Jamie Waller, a dyslexic entrepreneur, philanthropist, and investor has proven that these supposed “disabilities” can be a great edge in achieving amazing things in life. Despite leaving school without qualifications, Jamie defied expectations by starting multiple businesses, becoming a multimillionaire in his twenties, and even starring in a TV show documenting his entrepreneurial journey. Inspired by a conversation with Sir Richard Branson in 2022, Waller wrote The Dyslexic Edge, a book that challenges the idea of dyslexia as a deficit. Instead, he showcases research and interviews with successful dyslexics, proving that dyslexia can be a unique advantage.In this interview, we explore eye-opening statistics (15% of the population is dyslexic, yet 35% of entrepreneurs and over 45% of self-made millionaires share this trait. However, over 50% of the prison population is also dyslexic, revealing the systemic challenges these individuals face). According to Waller, the education system discriminates against diverse learning styles, labeling dyslexia as a disorder rather than recognizing it as a strength in global exploratory learning — the ability to discover, invent, and create.Discover how Jamie's journey and groundbreaking insights can inspire you to see challenges as opportunities and harness your unique strengths to achieve greatness—tune in to this podcast and unlock the potential of The Dyslexic Edge!ABOUT OUR GUESTJamie Waller is dyslexic and a serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, and investor. Despite leaving school with no qualifications he started multiple businesses, became a multimillionaire in his twenties and featured in a prime-time TV show that followed him starting his first business. Currently, Jamie owns a venture capital fund, has thirteen companies under management and employs over 1,000 people worldwide.

The paradox of the Information Age is that we have unprecedented access to poor-quality knowledge while lacking valuable wisdom and understanding. This session will help you discern bias and misinformation that are ingrained in the language and literature of our modern-day Babylonian culture.

Ministers Fellowship International exists to help leaders build healthy, strong, impacting churches and to do so in a way that makes for a healthy leader.

In this episode of The Mind Gut Conversation, I sit down with Patrick Flynn, DC as he shares his bold belief that the human body was not designed for illness and, when properly cared for, has the innate ability to heal itself-a perspective that challenges conventional medical norms. Dr. Flynn is a trained chiropractor, nationally renowned leader in wellness and the visionary founder of The Wellness Way, a revolutionary network of 80 health restoration clinics across the United States. Beyond his clinical successes, he is the author of two influential books: I Disagree: How These Two Words Are the Secret to Thinking Differently, Taking Control of Your Health (2019) and the follow-up I Still Disagree (2024). Dr. Flynn is also a Fellow in the American Psychological Association and the American Educational Research Association, with experience serving on editorial boards and federal grant review panels. Throughout this episode, we explore a range of fascinating topics, including: 1) How the philosophy and practice of The Wellness Way differ from both conventional and functional medicine. 2) How Dr. Flynn's approach goes beyond the typical chiropractic focus on spinal realignment to embrace holistic health restoration. 3) The essential elements of his medical philosophy, including the role of medications, supplements, and traditional treatments. What I found most compelling about our conversation is how, despite holding some differing political viewpoints, we were able to engage in a thought-provoking discussion. Together, we highlight the importance of shifting from a reactive "disease model" to one that empowers patients to proactively improve their health and prevent illness. We hope you enjoy this episode!

In Nigeria, tens of millions of people live without access to reliable power. Utibe Bassey grew up in Lagos, and knows what it's like to not have electricity to perform simple daily tasks. When she moved to the United States as a teen, she didn't think much about electric utilities.

She also talks about what it means to work in the power industry, having lived without access to reliable power in her youth. This podcast is produced by GridX in partnership with Latitude Studios. GridX is the Enterprise Rate Platform that modern utilities rely on to usher in our clean energy future.

I'm joined by Maren Goerss and Angela Sizer, two former teachers turned homeschooling parents and advocates, the hosts of the Homeschool Unrefined podcast, and the authors of the new book Think Differently About Learning: A Homeschool Where Parents and Children Thrive. I loved this conversation where we explored homeschooling from many different angles, including considerations when homeschooling neurodivergent kids, the common barriers parents face, and why trusting the process and our children is crucial, yet challenging, in a homeschooling environment. We also talk about way viewing children as individuals worthy of respect and autonomy can revolutionize the learning experience, and how following our children's interests can lead to more meaningful and effective education. Angela Sizer earned her Master's in Teaching and taught in public schools for seven years. For a decade, she homeschooled her own children and loved watching them explore their passions and get excited about learning. These experiences strengthened Angela's commitment to respecting how children learn and highlighted the role neurodivergence and mental health play in the process. Maren Goerss has her Master's in Education and taught elementary school for eight years. As part of a neurodivergent family, Maren sees learning differences as superpowers and leans into their strengths. After being a homeschool parent for years, Maren has become an ADHD parent and life coach. Together, Angela and Maren created the podcast, Homeschool Unrefined, in 2016 to share their experience and knowledge as educators and homeschoolers while encouraging parents to notice how their children are always learning. Their podcast and book are a call to parents to reconsider their expectations of their children and themselves. They advocate for doing less, leaning into strengths, and enjoying the process.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today, we reunite with fellow podcasters and homeschool moms, Maren Goerss and Angela Sizer. We dive into their new book, Think Differently About Learning: A Homeschool Where Children and Parents Thrive.It can be all too easy for homeschooling families to unintentionally replicate the negative aspects of traditional schooling that they were trying to avoid: Cookie cutter approaches, stress, burnout, etc. Think Differently About Learning gives a roadmap for a more joyful approach.We talk about building an appetite for learning by honoring learning differences, rest, and small wins. Plus, we discuss relying on relationships instead of rules to guide your child in decision-making. Themes of empowerment, pleasure, and wellness weave their way through our discussion.What Maren and Angela have to say as former traditional teachers and experienced homeschoolers is refreshing, tangible, and inspiring.

In this episode: buy and hold, macroeconomics, interest rates, bond investing, when to sell, mindset, and thinking differently. This week we are joined once again by friend of the show Brian Feroldi to discuss the stock market and investing as we head into 2024. As most of you know by now, keeping your head down and staying the course is a pretty typical investing strategy in the FI community, but it is important to remember personal finance is personal. Depending on your situation, life may require you to mold that strategy into something else as your mindset and seasons of life change! Make sure your are not only optimizing your financial situation, but also your life in the process!
