Plants that live indoors with us over the winter — both houseplants and those that are only stored inside the house seasonally — need a few things from us to get through the darker, colder months. At the same time, too much coddling during this period of semi-dormancy can doom plants. This week, I am sharing how to prepare plants for the transition and how to strike the right balance to keep them happy and healthy.

What if resilience isn't enough?In this episode of Grow the Good, I sit down with Dr. Nick Holton and Dr. Adam Wright, co-founders of the Antifragile Academy, to explore how to move beyond just surviving life's stressors and instead use them to grow stronger. Nick and Adam share a science-backed, integrative framework that blends psychology, physiology, and purpose to help you thrive under pressure, navigate transitions, and build a more grounded sense of identity.We unpack the difference between resilience and antifragility, how to reframe volatility as a feature, not a flaw, of growth, and why thriving requires both distress tolerance and meaning. Whether you're an athlete, a high performer, or simply someone who wants to show up better in life, this conversation will expand how you think about potential, identity, and well-being.Top 5 Takeaways:Antifragility vs. resilience: Resilience helps you bounce back; Antifragility helps you grow stronger through challenge.Thriving = pleasantness + distress tolerance: True thriving includes discomfort and meaning, not just happiness.The 4-Lens Framework: Understand yourself through cognitive (top-down), physiological (bottom-up), environmental (outside-in), and values-based (inside-out) perspectives.Identity beyond performance: You are not just what you do. Growth requires detaching self-worth from achievement.Volatility as opportunity: Change, uncertainty, and stress can be leveraged for transformation if you engage intentionally.--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

Let's get one thing straight: happiness isn't the “perk” at the end of success. It's the precondition for it. Jessica Weiss — Happiness Expert, corporate strategist, and author of Happiness Works: The Science of Thriving at Work — dismantles the myth that happiness is soft, fluffy, or found in a corner office. Spoiler: it's measurable, trainable, and completely within your control.Jessica spent 15 years advising the world's biggest brands — Coca-Cola, J&J, AmEx — before realizing something startling: she'd hit every career benchmark and still wasn't happy. That revelation sparked a decade of research into what truly makes people thrive at work. What she discovered is not another feel-good formula. It's science. It's structure. And it's a radical call to rewire how we define success. In this episode, you'll find out Why the “dream job” is a myth — and how to create happiness, not wait for it. The five pillars shared by people who flourish instead of flounder: connection, resilience, optimism, progress, and trust. The neuroscience behind joy — how writing down three good things literally rewires your brain for happiness. How psychological safety (not ping-pong tables) predicts performance and innovation. Why progress is more powerful than promotion — and what that means for your team. How to spot (and stop) burnout using the “antidote” Jessica calls strategic optimism. The Mic Drop Happiness isn't a mood. It's infrastructure. It's not about balance — it's about design. And it's not waiting somewhere outside of you. You build it — one relationship, one mindset shift, one meaningful moment of progress at a time.

What does it really take to become unshakable - mentally, emotionally, and in business?For Gary Vaynerchuk, serial entrepreneur and CEO of VaynerX, it started with fear. Growing up an immigrant in a small New Jersey home, he battled the constant anxiety of losing his parents. That fear became fuel. Today, Gary is one of the most influential voices in entrepreneurship, and a leading advocate for emotional strength, self-awareness, and detachment from external validation.Gary and I unpack how early trauma shaped his resilience, how he stays grounded while operating billion-dollar ventures, and why chasing admiration is the surest way to lose yourself.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction & Childhood Fear01:19 – Taking Responsibility in Life01:44 – Gary Vee's Daily Life Post-COVID05:16 – Fatherhood & Work-Life Balance08:51 – Roots, Immigrant Backgrounds & Drive12:06 – Emotional Intelligence & Detachment from Material Validation14:18 – Thriving in Adversity & Emotional Strength16:20 – Childhood Fear as a Superpower19:54 – Trauma, Adversity & Growth23:32 – Taking the Wheel of Your Life27:59 – Spirituality & Oneness32:30 – Gratitude & Practical Life Lessons35:26 – Growth, Loneliness & Imposter Syndrome36:53 – Empathy, Perspective & Closing ThoughtsLike this episode?

In this episode of Sex Advice for Seniors, I welcome back Michelle Jermy, psychotherapist and founder of The Yoni Therapist, to discuss her groundbreaking work on women's sexual health, low libido, and the often-overlooked relational aspects of desire.Michelle shares her mission to help clinicians and patients better address issues like low libido, pain during penetration, and the pressures many women feel to “perform” sexually. While current clinical tools like the Female Sexual Function Index, which I have never heard mentioned previously, focus on biomedical factors, Michelle emphasises the need to explore relational and emotional dynamics. She is developing a new toolkit to help clinicians ask deeper, more relevant questions, such as, “Do you feel pressured to have sex to maintain your relationship?” or “Do you know what brings you sexual pleasure?”The conversation highlights how women's sexual health is often dismissed or under explored in clinical settings. We discussed the importance of clinicians adopting a more expansive view of sex—not just focusing on penetration, but including a full spectrum of intimacy and pleasure. Michelle also stresses how understanding basic wellness factors, such as sleep, mental health, and physical touch, is essential for restoring desire. We tend to think of libido as purely driven by hormones, but as we discussed in this episode and I have discussed in previous conversations with doctors such as Lauren Streicher MD, it's much more complex than that!Michelle's upcoming research project aims to train clinicians and provide tools for better addressing women's sexual health concerns. For patients, she advocates for proactive communication with healthcare providers, even suggesting template letters to help women articulate their needs confidently.It's so important that we normalise conversations about women's pleasure and sexual health, in order to bridge the gap between patients and clinicians.Why Subscribe to Sex Advice for Seniors?

When it comes to giving yourself credit for your wins and accomplishments, how would you rate yourself? Are you a strong self-promoter? Do you share your accomplishments with others and routinely make it known that you're up to great things? Or, do you tend to shy away from shining too brightly in front of others? As women leaders, we're often taught to keep our heads down, work hard, and let our results speak for themselves. But here's the truth: results don't speak. People do. If we're not willing to talk about our wins, we're missing out on opportunities to advance our careers, inspire other women, and rewrite what leadership visibility looks like. In this episode, I'm diving into why women need to brag more and how we can do it in ways that feel authentic, strategic, inspiring, and empowering to others. I'll unpack how women consistently undersell themselves compared to men, even when they're performing at the same or higher levels. We'll explore how cultural conditioning, fear of backlash, and the “be humble” narrative keep women from taking rightful credit for their accomplishments. I'll also talk about how self-promotion isn't egotistical or arrogant, but rather a form of advocacy. It's a way to own your impact, document your growth, and create a ripple effect that encourages other women to step into their power. You'll walk away from this episode with tangible strategies to brag smart, from reframing your wins as stories of impact to finding ways to normalize sharing success within your teams and networks. Whether you're climbing the ladder, leading a team, or mentoring others, this episode will help you show up more visibly, confidently, and unapologetically as the accomplished leader you already are. It's time to stop playing small and start celebrating yourself because when women brag, we all rise.

Welcome to "Thriving in Midlife Redefining Aging with Wellness" the podcast where we discuss how to live an extraordinary life in every aspect. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality.In this episode, I'm talking about something that's been simmering in my soul for a long time: the quiet pressure to conform, and how easy it is to slip into a life that looks “fine” … but doesn't feel like yours. I'm sharing why I've always chosen to march to my own beat, even when it didn't make sense to anyone else, and how that mindset became the key to living with energy, purpose, and joy well into my 40s, 50s, and beyond. If you've ever felt like you're playing small or waiting for the “right time” to step into your greatness… this one's for you.Key Highlights:“Fine” might feel safe, but it's not where your best life lives.Your kids don't need you to be perfect; they need you to be bold.The people around you shape your energy more than you realize.You don't need January 1st to begin your transformation.True health includes vitality, purpose, and joy, not just diet and exercise.Most people live at a “5”, but you were made for a 10.Being in a “league of your own” isn't weird; it's wisdom.Key Takeaways:“There is no magic and pixie dust that falls upon us on January 1st… You have the decision right now, today.”-Kellie Lupsha“Don't let fear hold you back. Don't let being common hold you back. Don't let feeling fine hold you back.” -Kellie LupshaCome to the Virtual Women's LIFE Summit Nov 5th & 6th, 2025!

2 Timothy 2:1-2 teaches us that real thriving means making disciples because making disciples multiplies faith and matures faith. In the call to multiply faith, the enemy that combats against this is oftentimes selfish faith. Selfish faith is more concerned about me, myself, and I rather than God's kingdom, his mission, and his people. The way we surrender our selfish faith is by being given a vision of a thriving life that is more compelling than our selfish ways. Multiplying faith is a more compelling way to live because God's salvation extends beyond one person but carries on from generation to generation. But also, discipleship provides the means for mature faith. Paul explains discipleship always happens in the context of personal and proximate relationships. And it's through relationships that people come to love Christ above all. Discipleship is not an easy task but God has provided a source that his people can always return to for strength and it's his well of grace. This is what sustains us and strengthen us to make disciples who make disciples.
Fertility is often one of the most confusing – and surprising – aspects of perimenopause. Your hormones are fluctuating, your periods might be irregular, but yes, you can still fall pregnant. For some women, that’s an unexpected joy; for others, a wake-up call. And for those trying to conceive later in life, it can be a time filled with questions, hope and uncertainty. In this episode, we speak with reproductive endocrinologist Dr Devini Ameratunga (drdevameratunga.com), who specialises in hormonal and reproductive health, to unpack what really happens to fertility during perimenopause. Whether you’re hoping to conceive, avoid pregnancy, or simply understand your body better, this conversation offers clarity, reassurance and expert advice to help you make informed choices about your reproductive health during perimenopause.

What drives someone to spend weeks alone in Canada's most remote wilderness — filming every moment? In this episode, Richard talks with Maxim Budnick, the outdoorsman and filmmaker behind the popular YouTube channel. His videos capture breathtaking expeditions through some of the most untouched landscapes in Canada, from -30°C winter camps to multi-week canoe trips across the Northwest Territories. Maxim shares how his lifelong love of nature turned into a full-time passion for adventure filmmaking. They discuss bushcraft, survival, and the meditative power of wilderness solitude. Maxim also opens up about what it's like to create content far from civilization — balancing the joy of adventure with the challenges of carrying camera gear, extreme weather, and total isolation. This conversation is a deep dive into the beauty of nature, the simplicity of canoe travel, and what it really means to connect with the wild.

Childhood trauma can turn into CPTSD which has pervasive symptoms throughout your life, but you can learn to heal from childhood trauma. Learn the skills to Regulate your Emotions, join the membership: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/membership Emotional Flashbacks video: https://youtu.be/oVLHysMGi8o?si=oJZy76o957LNranw Relationships after Childhood Trauma: Coming soon Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving by Pete Walker is a compassionate, practical guide for understanding and healing childhood trauma, CPTSD, and complex trauma. Walker explains how chronic abuse or neglect in childhood wires the nervous system for danger, leading to symptoms like emotional flashbacks, toxic shame, harsh inner critic attacks, and difficulty with boundaries. He introduces the 4F survival responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—showing how they develop as protective adaptations to childhood trauma but can block healthy adult relationships. Healing, he says, begins with recognizing emotional flashbacks, shrinking the inner critic, and practicing self-compassion through “reparenting” the inner child. Walker emphasizes building healthy boundaries, grieving childhood losses, and replacing self-abandonment with self-protection. His approach blends psychoeducation, practical tools, and validation, empowering survivors to reclaim self-worth, safety, and connection. Ultimately, the book offers a hopeful roadmap for healing complex trauma—moving from a life shaped by survival to one grounded in presence, love, and resilience.
