Podcasts about pep talk

We are starting something different today that will carry through the next few Behind the Sessions episodes. I'm tackling those “middle-of-the-night” feelings during pregnancy and the postpartum. Nighttime can bring feelings of dread and loneliness that mothers experience as a heaviness, and all of this can magnify and intensify any perinatal mood and anxiety disorders to make life very challenging for a sleep-deprived parent. You are not alone, and there is a whole community of people experiencing the same things. Think of these subsequent few sessions as your “2 am pep talk.” Join me now! Show Highlights: The importance of connection Sleep deprivation makes everything darker. You may feel like you're doing everything wrong. You are doing a LOT while giving love and care to your baby. You aren't a bad mother if you don't LOVE middle-of-the-night care. Don't judge yourself because of how you feel at 2 am. The next few episodes will include coping skills for the middle of the night. Join me for a guided visualization to ease your feelings of isolation. Join me for self-compassion affirmations to try today.

For years, we told ourselves lies about our businesses. Lies that kept us playing small, holding us back, and making us think success looked one certain way. We thought we had to shoot destination weddings to “arrive.” We thought buying the newest gear would finally level us up. We thought charging higher prices would mean more difficult clients. None of that was true.The truth is, you don't need to chase every shiny object to succeed. You don't need to go viral on Instagram or say yes to every opportunity that crosses your path. You need clarity, strategy, and the courage to stop letting fear make decisions for you. Once we realized that, our businesses and our mindsets shifted in ways we never thought possible.You are capable of building a profitable, fulfilling business right where you are. You don't need to wait for permission, and you don't need to be anyone other than yourself to do it.No more comparing your path to someone else's. No more hiding behind fear. No more believing the lies that hold you back.It's time to rewrite the story of what success can look like in your wedding business.00:00 – 02:30 | Intro, Wedding Season Updates, and Destination Work 02:30 – 07:00 | Lie #1: You Have to Do Destination Weddings to Be Successful 07:00 – 12:30 | Lie #2: Buying New Gear Will Grow Your Business 12:30 – 16:30 | Lie #3: Higher-Paying Clients Are More Difficult 16:30 – 22:30 | Lie #4: Pay-to-Play Opportunities Are a Bad Thing 22:30 – 25:30 | Lie #5: Instagram is About Going Viral and Followers 25:30 – 28:00 | Closing Thoughts and Pep Talk for CreativesThe next round of The Luxury Mastermind will start in October 2025!

Season seven of Nonprofit Courage Lab kicks off with a truth-telling pep talk. End-of-year fundraising doesn't have to mean sleepless nights, burnout, or tolerating underperforming teams and boards. You're capable of raising millions—unrestricted—and doing it in a way that feels fun and sustainable.In this episode, I'm calling out the silent habits that hold fundraisers back: saying yes when you need to say no, underestimating yourself and your donors, making excuses for your team, and tolerating mediocrity that poisons your culture. I'll share what separates the organizations that thrive from those that fall behind—and why advocating for yourself, leading unapologetically, and setting clear expectations are non-negotiables for success.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:The funding shifts impacting nonprofits right now—and how to prepareWhy saying “no” is a leadership skill, not a riskThe hidden cost of making excuses for underperformers (and how to stop)How to use empathy without enabling dysfunctionA real coaching example: turning around a million-dollar deficit with better leadership conversationsWhy advocating for yourself changes everything—from your workload to your fundraising results You are capable of more than you realize. It's time to stop underestimating yourself, stop apologizing, and stop tolerating excuses—from yourself, your team, or your board. When you step into your leadership unapologetically, you'll raise more money, lead healthier teams, and create lasting change.Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

Ephesians 3:14-21

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog tackle some of the most pressing questions for business coaches gearing up for a successful season. Karl dissects business valuation multiples with practical examples, shares the best advice he's ever received (hint: mindset is everything), explains the flywheel concept in coaching, shows how people are more predictable than they think, and delivers a high-energy pep talk to relight the fire in any coach who's ready to level up. The show wraps with actionable strategies for focus and productivity—and plenty of classic Karlisms along the way. Key Topics Covered Understanding Business Valuation Multiples Karl reviews questions sparked by a previous discussion on laundromat valuations, clarifying why multiples change based on business size, predictability, scalability, and industry differences. He breaks down why scalability drives higher multiples, and emphasizes that growth and scale aren't the same. Mindset and “Emotional Home” Karl shares the most pivotal advice he's received: “You are what you think about.” He discusses the power of your self-talk (“I am…” statements), the importance of knowing your “emotional home,” and the compounding impact of clear, defined goals, using Kobe Bryant and Tom Brady as examples. The Flywheel and Clock Model To help listeners grasp the importance of momentum in business, Karl explains the flywheel (or “clock”) framework. He details how to apply it to money, lifestyle, procrastination, and business growth, demonstrating how well-structured systems compound positive results and how negative cycles (like procrastination) can spiral. Human Predictability and Coaching Shortcuts Karl illustrates just how predictable people are, sharing audience-tested mental tricks and the four main business owner challenges—sales, marketing, systems, and staff. He advises coaches to prepare solutions for these core areas to instantly build credibility and handle any business owner's problem. Pep Talk for Coaches: The 3 Core Beliefs With summer ending and the busy season beginning, Karl pushes coaches to ground themselves in three beliefs: the opportunity is there, you're the right person to seize it, and it will be worth it. He lays out the “3031 framework” (30 minutes a day for 30 days on one problem) to create momentum and encourages coaches to take consistent, focused action. Solving vs. Dissolving Problems Karl wraps by challenging listeners to ask if they're focusing on the right problems, and to “think on paper.” He urges coaches to step away from endless optimization and instead focus on proven, direct paths to landing clients and getting results. Notable Quotes “You are what you think about. Your thoughts control a lot. What you say after 'I am' matters.” “Profit is the domino that knocks over all the other dominoes. The business owner doesn't need another ad. What they need is a proper business model.” "People are predictable. If you put a business owner on the phone and ask for their biggest problem, it's almost always sales, marketing, systems, or staff.” “You have two people to impress: your nine-year-old self and your 90-year-old self.” “The secret is there is no secret. It's all just bloody hard work.” Actionable Takeaways Clarify Your Goal: Set a clear, specific target (like one live event per week with 10 decision-makers in the room). Big goals make daily actions obvious. Apply the Flywheel Framework: Think in loops and compounding progress—not just linear steps. Remember, positive cycles expand, and negative ones (procrastination, guilt) contract. Use the “3031 Framework”: Solve your #1 challenge by dedicating the first 30 minutes of every day for 30 days straight to it. Momentum beats motivation. Prepare Solutions: Be ready to address business owners' predictable issues: sales, marketing, systems, and staff. Have resources and frameworks in your back pocket. Think on Paper: Regularly map out your plans, strategies, and challenges using pen and paper (or digital notes). Don't try to solve complex problems in your head. Focus on Service and Real Results: Resist optimizing broken strategies. Direct outreach and targeted offers (not mass ads) are your fastest path to landing high-end coaching clients.

Ever feel like one slip, one meal, or even one week off plan ruins everything?

In this pep talk, I open up about my own people-pleasing tendencies and where they come from, how they've impacted my life, and the ways I've been learning to overcome them as a mom. Motherhood brings so many responsibilities, expectations, and pressures, and people-pleasing only adds to the weight we carry.This isn't just about learning to say no. It's about honoring your needs, trusting your intuition, and not letting others sway you away from what you know is best for your life and your family. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. And you deserve to be seen, heard, and understood without abandoning yourself in the process.I hope this short episode gives you a little boost of encouragement for the week ahead.

Today's episode is a permission slip to reclaim your time, and focus on curiosity, not optimisation.

Three Ireland has announced it is committing a €100,000 bursary fund and a suite of technical supports to small businesses through its Grants for Small Businesses programme. Now entering a milestone fifth year, the programme offers a mix of financial support and connectivity solutions to help Irish SMEs grow and thrive. Since Three launched the initiative in 2021, the programme has provided over €750,000 in funding, products, services and strategic support to small businesses across Ireland. This includes marketing and PR assistance, access to Three Ireland's business tools and expert guidance on how to run a successful business. Bernard Brogan, the Chief Commercial Officer and Co-founder of PepTalk and former Dublin footballer, has been announced as a new judge for this year's programme. The programme is funded by Three Ireland and delivered in partnership with small business support platform Enterprise Nation. In 2025, 10 selected businesses will receive €5000 in cash and €5000 worth of Three connectivity and device solutions. Padraig Sheerin, Head of SME, Three Ireland, said: "Three is committed to helping businesses of all sizes across Ireland grow and innovate through our connectivity products and solutions. Our grant programme offers small businesses not only financial support but also practical guidance and mentorship from Three's team of business experts. Since the launch of the SME Grant Programme five years ago, the winning teams have experienced remarkable growth and we're proud to contribute to their success as they continue to expand." Bernard Brogan, co-founder of PepTalk spoke about his involvement on this year's programme: "Initiatives such as this are crucially important for supporting SMEs in Ireland and providing them with the tools they need to succeed. The business environment is rapidly evolving, with connectivity becoming increasingly central for all businesses. Three's financial and practical support will have a hugely positive impact for the winning firms - I look forward to working on this year's programme and seeing the high-calibre of different businesses come through." Former winner of the Three Ireland Grant Niamh Tallon will also return to the judging panel this year, bringing her expertise and continued support for Ireland's small business community. Niamh Tallon, founder of Her Sport and winner of the 2021 Three Ireland Grant, said: "Winning Three Ireland's Grants for Small Businesses programme was a game-changer for Her Sport. The funding and expert support helped us grow our team, boost our visibility, and put the right tech foundations in place to scale as a young business. I'm delighted to return as a judge this year, and get a chance to meet the next wave of inspiring entrepreneurs. Having experienced the challenges of starting out in business, I encourage all SMEs to apply - you could be the next success story to emerge from the Three SME Grant Programme."

Today we're playing with the idea of setting an anchor for the rest of the year!

It's September, which means it's time for your annual pep talk, teacher friend! In this episode, I'm sharing the one message every secondary science teacher needs to hear as the school year kicks off. We'll talk about the unique challenges you face, why boundaries and clarity matter, and how to model humanity and humility in your classroom. Plus, I'll walk you through a simple exercise to brain dump your goals, assess your current season, and limit your priorities this year so you can let go of perfection, embrace grace, and actually enjoy teaching!➡️ Show Notes: https://itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com/episode198 Resources:Secondary Science Simplified episodes by topic Download your FREE Classroom Reset Challenge.Take the Free Labs When Limited virtual PD courseSend me a DM on Instagram: @its.not.rocket.scienceSend me an email: rebecca@itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com  Follow, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts.Related Episodes:Episode 38, A Beginning of the Year PEP TALKEpisode 53, School Counselor Partnerships, Life Hacks, and Laughter with Guest Lauren TingleEpisode 123, What to Do When You Care More Than Your Students DoEpisode 165, How Naming What Matters Most Can Change the Rest of Your School YearEpisode 166, How to Use Your Students to Work Smarter Rather Than Harder

As moms, time isn't always in our favor, between busy schedules, kids, and the chaos of daily life, the things we love often get pushed aside. For me, that was working out. In this episode, I share how I fell out of my routine during the summer and the simple ways I've brought movement back into my life—without a gym. This is your reminder that no matter how packed your days feel, you can always find small, intentional ways to make space for what lights you up.

Are you being tested? Life is full of those frustrating moments—an unexpected bill, a toxic job dynamic, or an unaligned romantic suitor. This episode is your pick-me-up on how to navigate tests and what they really mean in manifestation terms. Lacy and Jessica share that tests aren't here to punish us—they're here to show if we're truly ready for what we're calling in. Each test reflects our subconscious self-worth, asking us to notice old patterns and choose differently this time. Through live channelings, grounded insights, and real-time examples, they walk you through the TBM approach to moving through life's tests with clarity and power. Because your manifestations are already orbiting, and every test is the universe knocking to see if you're ready to receive it.Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: HOW TO MANIFEST by Lacy Phillips (with exercises by Jessica Gill) Coming October 21st!Pre-Order NOW Join the Pathway MembershipUse code EXPANDED for 20% off your first month!Join our membership to access the TBM Money Challenge -- Now Live!The Pathway Membership gives you unlimited access to all of our manifestation workshops—including How to Manifest, Unblocking Your Inner Child, Shadow, Love, Money, Rock Bottoms, Ruts, and Energetic Updates —plus 70+ self-hypnosis tracks designed to unlock your full potential.LEARN MORE HERE Get the latest from TBMJoin our Money Challenge - 3 weeks to your next level of abundanceTake our Free Money Quiz - find out what level of wealth consciousness you are at Join the Pathway now - to get full access to our 2025 Money Challenge and join the Pathway (use code EXPANDED for 20% off first month)New to TBM?

Okay actors, here it is—your end-of-summer pep talk. I don't know how we got here so fast, but summer's basically over and it's time to stop stalling. Time to get your act together. In this episode, I'm giving it to you straight. Yes, I even drop a few swear words, because honestly, sometimes that's what it takes to shake things up. I'll share the story of Bowie the cat (our very cautious little housemate) and how it perfectly connects to where so many of you are stuck in your careers. The question is: are you going to stay scared Bowie… or step up and be brave Bowie? And I'm not just talking theory here. I'm breaking down the exact things that matter most right now: your resume, your headshots, your reels, your website, and the way you correspond with agents and casting directors. These are the details that decide whether we keep looking at you—or hit delete in under three seconds. What You'll Take Away Why being “brave Bowie” matters more than you think The three pillars of Acting Business Boot Camp: training, business skills, and mindset work How to make your resume speak the “Language of Agents and Casting Directors” What your headshots and reels are really saying about you Why your emails to agents and CDs often get ignored (and how to fix it) The one website mistake that can literally cost you a job Why being 98% committed isn't enough—and how going all in changes everything My Challenge to You If you're serious about becoming a working actor, you don't have to do this alone. That's what I built Acting Business Boot Camp for: to give you structure, tools, and support from someone who knows this industry inside and out. So here's my offer: book a free 15-minute consultation with me. Let's see where you're stuck, what's holding you back, and how to get your act together once and for all. If you've worked with me before and feel like you need a reset, click the link in the show notes and let's reconnect. If this is your first step, perfect. Let's get started. Ready? Let's Do This Click the link in the show notes to grab your free consultation. Because you don't want to spend the next season of your career like scared Bowie, hiding in the corner. You want to be the one who finally steps out, explores the whole house, and discovers just how good it feels to be brave. About Me I'm Peter Pamela Rose, a casting director and certified life and career coach. Through Acting Business Boot Camp, I help actors cut through the noise, build confidence, and create careers that actually work. Every week, I share real tools, mindset coaching, and industry insights to get you from feeling stuck to becoming a working actor.
