6x Your Ad ROI: The Power of Google Reviews for Cash Practices In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down how one simple factor—Google reviews—can transform your return on ad spend (ROAS) from 2x to 12x. Using a real example of two nearly identical clinics, he explains why social proof is the difference between average and elite marketing results, and how to build a system that keeps reviews (and new patients) flowing. Quick Ask Help us reach our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to the profession—share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny. He'll reshare it! Episode Summary Case Study: Two clinics, same ads, same demographics—one made 12x ROI, the other only 2x. The difference? 250 Google reviews vs. zero. Intent-based ads win: Google search leads are high-intent buyers looking for a real solution, not just scrolling. Social proof = trust: Buyers skip clinics with few or no reviews. Local reputation heavily influences clicks and conversions. AI search impact: Platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini still pull heavily from Google data—especially reviews—for local service rankings. ROI math: A 12x return means hiring faster, filling schedules, and scaling with confidence; 2x means ads are barely sustainable. How to 6x Your Return on Ad Spend Ask in person: Don't automate gratitude. When a patient shares a big win, that's your moment to ask for a review. Make it easy: Text them the direct Google review link right then. If they use Gmail, they're likely already logged in—instant review. Follow up: People get busy. Email or text them again a few days later with the same link and a quick thank-you note. Train your staff: Encourage your team to ask happy patients too—especially those they love working with. More ideal patients come from more aligned reviews. Automate wisely: Use email triggers to request reviews mid or post plan of care, but never rely on automation alone. Mindset & Systems Fundamentals matter: Gathering reviews may not feel flashy, but it's like dribbling with your non-dominant hand—it changes your game. Track outcomes: Compare ad performance monthly. Reallocate spend toward high-ROI locations with more social proof. Empower your team: Remind staff that reviews bring in more of the patients they enjoy treating—reducing burnout and improving morale. Notable Quotes “The difference between a 2x and a 12x ROI isn't your ad—it's your reviews.” “Social proof is your digital word of mouth. It's what people trust before they ever meet you.” “This is like dribbling with your non-dominant hand. It's not sexy—but it wins games.” Pro Tips You Can Use This Month Audit your listings: Count your Google reviews and compare them to competitors in your area. Create a script: Role-play how your staff asks patients for reviews at the right time. Use Gmail leverage: Focus on patients with Gmail accounts—they can review you in seconds. Celebrate wins: Share positive reviews in team meetings to reinforce the habit. Measure ROI: Track ad results before and after review pushes. The data will speak for itself. Action Items Text your Google review link to 5 happy patients today. Train your team to ask at every discharge or major breakthrough moment. Follow up once per week with anyone who hasn't yet left a review. Revisit your Google Business Profile—add photos, services, and recent updates to boost visibility.

Nicole Kelley teaches us how to use simple, smart ads to amplify what's already working in your blogging business without wasting time or money. She is a marketing strategist who helps creative entrepreneurs turn their BEST content into consistent traffic, leads, and sales using Facebook and Instagram ads. With over a decade of experience in digital marketing, Nicole specializes in building simple, high-converting ad funnels that work behind the scenes, so her clients can spend less time posting and more time creating. She's worked with bloggers, coaches, and small business owners to grow their audiences, launch digital products, and create sustainable revenue streams without relying on the social media grind. Nicole explains how to stop fearing ads and start using them to grow traffic, email lists, and product sales. She shows us why ads aren't a sign of failure but a lever for scale, and how even $5 a day can create momentum. Key points discussed include: - Mindset shift: Ads aren't a sign of failure, they're a sign you're ready to scale. It's a tool for amplifying what's already working in your business rather than a last resort. - Start with your best work: You don't have to advertise everything - choose a highlight reel of recipes or blog posts that showcase your brand at its best, so you make a strong first impression with new audiences. - Lead magnets win: Freebies, checklists, or roundups aren't just busywork. They're powerful tools for building your email list. - $5 a day is enough: Learn how to re-engage past visitors and test content with as little as one dollar per ad set. - Keep it organic-looking: The best ads don't look like ads. Natural-looking videos or photos blend better into social feeds and outperform polished, overly-branded content. - Track results separately: Don't lump everything together. Use unique landing pages and forms for ad-driven traffic so you can see exactly what's working. - Don't boost posts: Nicole cautions against the “Boost Post” button that tempts so many bloggers and shows why running campaigns through Meta Business Manager gives you the control and results you actually need.

Magnesium is one of the most talked about supplements for ADHD, but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay breaks down why magnesium matters so much for kids with ADHD, the different forms available, and how to choose the right one without making symptoms worse. Drawing from her own experience as a parent and as an ADHD health practitioner, Dana explains how magnesium supports sleep, mood, focus, and stress regulation, and why it must be paired with a strong foundation of diet and gut health. Parents will walk away with practical tips, clarity about which forms work best, and a framework to avoid the trial and error mistakes most families face. Links Mentioned in the Show: ▶ ADHD Thrive Institute – Website ▶ Mag Essentials - https://shop.adhdthriveinstitute.com/mag-essentials.html Key Takeaways: [01:30] Why magnesium is a big deal for ADHD kids [03:03] Food-first approach to boosting magnesium [05:03] The 8 different forms of magnesium—and what they each do [07:19] Why supplements won't work without foundational health [08:06] How to safely introduce magnesium to your child [09:04] Why Dana created Mag Essentials [10:12] Recap: Practical framework for using magnesium effectively Memorable Moments: “Not all magnesium is created equal — the form you choose can make all the difference." "You can't supplement your way out of an inflamed body — foundation comes first." "If the gut hasn't been supported or inflammation is high, even the best magnesium won't make a dent." "Magnesium can be a powerful ally for your child — but it's not magic." "I've tested dozens of magnesium products, and none combined the forms I wanted for ADHD support — so I created one." "Start low, go slow. Track reactions. Never start two supplements at the same time." "Food-first, foundation second, then the right supplements. That's the order that actually works."

In this special bonus episode of On Brand: Taylor's Version, now that The Life of a Showgirl is out in the world, we're asking: what does this new era tell us about Taylor Swift? To explore, I'm joined by Joanna Weiss, editor of Harvard Magazine, journalist, and co-author of Taylor Swift: Album by Album, a deep dive into every era. Together, we'll unpack how Showgirl fits into Taylor's evolution and what this chapter reveals about her storytelling, strategy, and brand. What You'll Learn in This Episode How Life of a Showgirl fits into Taylor Swift's evolution as an artist and storyteller Why some fans are divided on this album — and what that says about the expectations Taylor sets with each new era How Taylor balances real-life inspiration with fiction and character-driven songwriting What her creative process and relentless work ethic reveal about brand storytelling and reinvention Why Taylor's storytelling genius is as much about community and connection as it is about the music Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (00:47) Welcome Joanna Weiss (04:24) How the book Taylor Swift: Album by Album came together (07:02) Early takes on Life of a Showgirl (11:04) What makes an “era” — and how Showgirl fits in (19:18) What Taylor's saying with this album (25:23) Her creative process and work ethic (30:37) Money, power, and independence (33:20) The Taylor song that makes Joanna smile About Joanna Weiss Joanna Weiss is the editor of Harvard Magazine, a contributing writer for Politico Magazine, and a former columnist for The Boston Globe. Her work has appeared in The Atlantic, Slate, The Economist, and many other outlets. After chronicling her own Eras Tour experience for Boston's NPR affiliate WBUR, Joanna dove deeper into the Swiftiverse as co-author of Taylor Swift: Album by Album (Quarto Books), which explores each of Taylor's eras in detail. In addition to her journalism career, Joanna fronts a rock band she formed with five fellow moms — a story captured in her Boston Magazine feature “For Those Moms About to Rock,” now optioned for film by 20th Century Studios. What Taylor Era Has Made Joanna Smile Recently? When asked which Taylor song or era makes her smile, Joanna picked “Love Story.” Despite everything that has come since, she still returns to that song for its sheer emotional clarity — a bedroom-written, 20-minute burst of teenage storytelling that still captures the universal thrill of hope, love, and happily-ever-after energy that defines so much of Taylor's work.

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes Coach Tony Weaver, author of Project Manage Your Life: Your Blueprint for Achieving Any Goal — One Step at a Time. After decades of leading complex IT, marketing, and transformation projects, Tony turned his project management skills inward and used them to lose over 100 pounds. That journey sparked a new mission: helping others apply the same proven methods to their own goals, whether it's health, finances, career, or just finally following through on something important. In this conversation, you'll hear how to turn vague intentions into measurable, motivating goals. Tony shares how to break down big ambitions into doable milestones, track your progress without becoming a slave to the data, and stay consistent with joy instead of burnout. He unpacks what SMART goals actually look like in the real world and explains why the project mindset can transform not just what you achieve, but how you feel while doing it. If you're looking for practical ideas to move forward on goals that matter to you, at work or at home, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “Project management absolutely changed my life.” “Life is agile.” “Every goal is a project. Project management is just applying structure to that goal.” “Your brain doesn't care about your happiness. It cares about keeping you safe. That's why it resists change.” “Once you build confidence in yourself, the goal you set becomes just a jumping-off point.” “Setting a goal is an act of hope. It says that tomorrow can be better than today.” “Track what you can control. Influence is important, but control drives change.” “Focus on the things you control. Keep an eye on the results, but don't obsess about them.” “The safest place to be is in your comfort zone, not trying.” “Some numbers matter. Some are interesting. Some aren't even interesting.” “Letting a goal die of loneliness? That's a recipe for regret.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:36 Start of Interview 02:00 How Project Management Led to a New Mission 06:14 Mentorship, Coaching, and Project Management in Life 07:40 What Project Management Looks Like in Everyday Terms 11:20 Why Good Intentions Don't Lead to Change 13:10 Why Most People Don't Set Goals 15:24 Setting a Goal as an Act of Hope 18:00 Common Goal-Setting Mistakes and How to Fix Them 21:30 Building a Plan that Actually Works for You 23:50 Why You Should Plan Celebration, Not Just Completion 24:38 How to Track Progress Without Obsessing Over Data 29:20 The Danger of Focusing Too Much on Lagging Indicators 30:45 Two Client Success Stories 34:34 Where to Learn More About Coach Tony 35:28 End of Interview 36:03 Andy Comments After the Interview 39:05 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Tony and his work at OperationMelt.com.

Why does brain inflammation happen during the freeze response? How do you explain the difference between stress and trauma to patients? What's the single most important starting point for nervous system regulation? This episode answers these critical questions while revealing why emotional eating isn't a willpower problem and introducing the simple three-day tracking tool that changes everything for healing. You'll discover the critical line of overwhelm - that invisible threshold where stress becomes trauma - and learn practical strategies you can implement immediately to support your nervous system and begin the repair process. In this episode you'll learn: [01:19] The Biggest Myth: Why confusing stress and trauma leads to minimizing experiences and self-shame  [02:11] Physician's Lens on Trauma: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it wasn't just stress  [06:04] Three Nervous System States: Understanding polyvagal theory and the critical line of overwhelm  [09:52] Brain Inflammation During Freeze: Why immune cells unleash inflammation as protective survival strategy  [13:25] Dysregulation Multiplied by Time: Why autoimmunity takes 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to appear  [14:40] Three-Day Nervous System Journal: Simple hourly tracking tool that reveals hidden patterns  [19:00] The Gut-Brain Connection: Why your gut is inseparable from brain health and trauma loops  [21:22] Emotional Eating and Functional Freeze: Understanding food's hidden functions beyond willpower  [24:40] The #1 Starting Point: Why quality sleep has greatest impact on nervous system regulation  [25:44] Aligning with Circadian Rhythm: Morning sunlight, red light therapy, and working with your body's healing strategies Main Takeaways: Stress vs. Trauma Requires Different Repair: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it was trauma requiring fundamentally different approaches than stress management The Critical Line of Overwhelm: Personal capacity threshold where activation becomes trauma and the body automatically hits emergency brake Brain Inflammation Serves Protection: Immune cells unleash inflammation during freeze to facilitate disconnection and energy conservation for survival Time Compounds Dysregulation: Autoimmunity requires approximately 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to manifest as diagnosable disease Three-Day Tracking Creates Awareness: Hourly nervous system tracking reveals patterns showing time spent in shutdown, stress, or calm aliveness Innate Healing Requires Right Conditions: Surgical incisions prove the body heals itself when blocks are removed and proper support provided Gut-Brain Creates Stuck Points: Imbalanced gut causes neurochemical problems feeding back to worsen gut issues, limiting therapy progress Food Function Reveals Need: Emotional eating serves specific purposes - staying awake, avoiding feelings, managing energy - not willpower failure Sleep Impacts Everything: Quality sleep has greatest single effect on nervous system regulation and reduces sugar cravings Notable Quotes: "If it makes you sick 20 years later, that was not just stress. That was trauma your body was experiencing in childhood. You're looking at it through the lens of your adult self now, but that's not how you were experiencing it back then." "The critical line of overwhelm is where you've done your best. Your best wasn't good enough, and hitting the wall means there's no point in trying anymore." "Brain inflammation is part of a trauma response. Sometimes it triggers it. Sometimes it's triggered by the freeze response, but they always happen together." "Dysregulation multiplied by time becomes diagnoses. It's predictable." "Track your nervous system, and you'll be amazed at how much you learn about yourself in a week."   Episode Takeaway: The critical line of overwhelm represents your personal threshold where stress becomes trauma and your body automatically engages the emergency brake. Brain inflammation during freeze is part of the deliberate survival strategy - helping you disconnect, go numb, and conserve energy for survival. The insight: dysregulation multiplied by time becomes disease. Autoimmunity takes approximately 20 years of compounded nervous system dysregulation to manifest. This explains why short-term stress doesn't cause chronic illness but prolonged trauma patterns do. The three-day nervous system journal - tracking your inner state hourly - reveals patterns invisible to both practitioners and clients. This tracking tool shows how much time you spend in each of the three states and guides targeted intervention. Quality sleep stands as the single most powerful starting point for nervous system regulation. Better sleep reduces emotional eating, decreases sugar cravings, and increases your capacity to handle stress before crossing that critical line into trauma territory.

(What's The Story) Morning Glory? - Oasis (1995)  On this week's episode of Totally 80's and 90's Recall, Dave and Rob are rewinding back to 1995 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Oasis' landmark album What's the Story Morning Glory. Track by track, they'll unpack the record that turned the Gallagher brothers from local Manchester heroes into worldwide rock icons. From the swaggering punch of “Roll With It” to the tender emotion of “Wonderwall” and the anthemic rise of “Don't Look Back in Anger,” the guys will revisit the songs that defined Britpop and made Oasis the voice of a generation Of course, no Oasis deep dive is complete without talking about the band's legacy and the Gallagher brothers themselves. Dave and Rob will weigh in on how Morning Glory cemented Oasis' place in rock history, with its blend of stadium-ready choruses, Beatles-inspired melodies, and raw attitude. They'll also highlight the brilliance and madness of Noel and Liam Gallagher—their creative spark, their infamous feuds, and the unpredictable energy that made Oasis larger than life both on and off the stage. And now, with the band reuniting in 2025 for a massive world tour after splitting in 2009, the timing couldn't be better to reflect on just how much Oasis still matters Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694    Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408    Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall    YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ   Playlists:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0AtsvIUajFCX2M4LuqaO1E?si=QCJY6QO2Rq6PRCdR_y2EpQ    Apple: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/oasis-live-2025-setlist/pl.u-e98l3zLhWq6EDx?ls   Contact Us: Website: https://totally80s90srecall.podbean.com/  Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall

On today's episode as part of the Fit Girl Fall series, I am sitting down to discuss two ways to approach calculating your calories for fat loss regardless of if you want to track your food intake. Determining your target calorie deficit is an important core step towards your journey to losing body fat because without context into how much you should be eating, it's very challenging (if not impossible) to determine the daily food plan you should be following. For this reason, I'll be sharing two methods I use with clients to help you determine how much you should be eating for results. The first method is rooted in science and numbers, while the other method is less invasive into your lifestyle and instead uses how you currently eat in your real-life to help guide how to get into a calorie deficit. By the end you'll leave this episode with knowledge on how to determine how much you should be eating and how to apply this information to your daily life to begin seeing fat loss on both your body – and the scale.

From surviving 9/11 to leading a 30-person team through COVID, Bill shares how Bosun (formerly Frederick Swanston) adapted, learned to love KPIs, empowered their team, and even pulled off a successful rebrand. His story proves you can survive the toughest agency seasons and come out stronger—if you track the right numbers, avoid “superclient” risk, and learn to truly let go. What You'll Learn Why resilience (not just growth hacks) is the real agency survival skill How ignoring KPIs almost cost the agency big—and how to avoid that mistake Why letting go of control is the only way to grow past founder-dependence What a rebrand really signals about an agency's maturity and leadership shift The hidden dangers of relying on a “superclient” Key Takeaways Keep overhead light in uncertain times—it gives you room to maneuver when crises hit. Track your KPIs like a client project: salaries as % of AGI, AGI per employee, revenue per client. Don't rely on a single client for survival—client concentration is a silent killer. Empower your team early—you can't scale if you're reviewing every deliverable yourself. Rebrands work when they reflect a cultural shift—not just a new logo. What does it really take to keep an agency alive through market crashes, pandemics, and the endless grind without burning out or losing your edge? Today's featured guest will unpack his journey from starting in a basement with a couple of clients to leading a 30-person team through some of the toughest seasons an agency can face. From navigating financial blind spots to learning how to actually let go and trust his team, and the reason the agency's 25th anniversary actually marked a big shift with a new rebrand. Bill Swanston is the president and founder of Bosun, an Atlanta-based agency that just celebrated its 25th anniversary. Formerly known as Frederick Swanston, the agency has weathered market crashes, client shakeups, and a pandemic while building a powerhouse team with deep creative and digital chops. In this episode, we'll discuss: The challenges that really tested the agency's resilience. How learning to love KPIs saved the business. Why rebrand after 25 years?

Building Through Adversity and Surviving 9/11 After moving back to Atlanta from New York, Bill was freelancing at BBDO and thinking about switching to smaller agency. As he saw it, it was better to be a big fish in a smaller pond. Unfortunately, his gig at the smaller agency was short lived, since the agency shut down for good. Instead of packing it in, Bill and his partner Scott Frederick grabbed a few clients, set up shop in a basement, and got to work. Built-in revenue gave them a smoother start than most scrappy entrepreneurs, but reality set in quickly. By the early 2000s, they were hit hard by 9/11 and its ripple effect on corporate events. It was a reminder that whether you're at a big holding company or running your own small shop, stability is often an illusion. Surviving those first waves meant keeping overhead light, grinding it out, and learning how to adapt before the word “pivot” became a business cliché. The Challenge that Really Tested the Agency's Resilience Partnerships can make or break an agency and Bill admits the early years with his partner had their rough patches, not as creatives, but as business owners learning how to disagree productively. Over time, their different strengths meshed into what became a powerful leadership duo. But nothing tested the agency quite like COVID. With a staff of 30 suddenly looking to them for answers, the partners had to act fast. They slashed salaries, cut their own pay completely, and relied on federal relief programs like PPP loans to keep the team intact. That lifeline, combined with quick adjustments, got them back on track. As Bill put it, “It was the absolute worst period of time for the agency. But we came out stronger because we had no choice but to figure it out fast.” From Gut Instinct to KPIs That Saved the Business Like a lot of creative-led shops, Bill and his partner weren't exactly obsessed with financial metrics at first. According to Bill, they mostly leaned on QuickBooks, check-writing, and gut instincts. That worked until it didn't. By the time they realized improprieties had slipped under the radar, they knew it was time to upgrade. Today, they track everything from salaries as a percentage of adjusted gross income to AGI per employee to recurring revenue versus project-based work. They also look at revenue per client to ensure there isn't any one account that is overwhelming the team. Like many agencies, they had this happen at one point, with a client that accounted for 50% of their billing. He remembers being scared once this client started to dwindle as a result of the ‘08 crisis, which taught him the danger of relying on superclients that can walk away and take half your revenue with them. Bill stresses that KPIs aren't about being a math whiz, but about having clarity. Knowing your true profitability by client or department means you stop guessing and start making better decisions. “We do it for our clients,” he said, “so we've got to do it for ourselves too.” Nowadays, he works with an external CPA and an internal comptroller who help him keep an eye on the agency's finances. Pro tip: If you're not yet at the point where you can have a CFO but don't know where to start to assess your agency's financials, use askquick.ai. It's a tool developed by Jason and his team that'll help you figure out your most profitable clients, assess your financial red flags, measure your KPIs, and more. Learning to Let Go and Empower the Team For the first decade, Bill and Scott were deep in the weeds, reviewing every creative output, managing every account, carrying the business on their backs. Eventually, the workload became too much and they had to learn how to trust others. Empowering team members to make real decisions wasn't easy. It started organically as new hires took over account management, media, and digital responsibilities. Over time, Bill realized the work improved when people felt ownership and felt empowered to shape the agency. “The ability to let go and trust others is essential to grow your agency,” he says. This trust not only gave the agency room to grow but also gave Bill and Scott the freedom to step back from being prisoners of their own business. Why Would a 25 Year Old Agency Rebrand Now? After two and a half decades as Frederick Swanston, the founders made the bold move to rebrand as Bosun to better reflect what they'd become. The decision was about more than a new logo. According to Bill, keeping their surnames in the brand felt too self-centered and didn't reflect the agency's culture. The rebrand signaled a shift: it's not about Bill or Scott anymore. It's about the team, the clients, and the relationships that actually fuel the work. While rebrands often make clients nervous, Bill said the transition was seamless. In fact, many partners celebrated alongside them, proving that strong relationships matter more than the name on the door. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Ever felt “off” without a clear label? That unsettled itch - not sure what it is or what to do with this feeling?  We unpack 1 question that flips the script from vague discomfort to decisive action.  The shift from analyzing your current mood to aiming at a target feeling - confident, capable, empowered, which opens a practical path you can actually walk. air it with one follow-up question, that naturally comes to you - and you've got a daily operating system for momentum for the last 90 days of the year.  I share how this came to me after reading Marc Brackett's Dealing with Feeling.  On today's podcast we'll also challenge a common trap: waiting to be picked. Choosing yourself isn't posturing; it's stewardship of your craft. If your work helps others, your job is to ship it, test it, and refine it until the world takes it off your hands.  You'll learn how to use emotions as a compass to design action path that reliably generates the inner state you want, helping you to make progress without waiting for permission. By the end, you'll have a simple, repeatable tool you can use whenever life feels unsettled: pick a feeling, plan the reps, and step into the driver's seat.  If this resonates, tell me: What feeling are you choosing for your next 90 days, and what's the first action you'll take today?  Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik speaks with “health detective” Beth Mielbrecht about moving beyond trial-and-error wellness. Beth blends engineering-style problem solving with energetic and bioindividual approaches to help people identify root causes—rather than silencing symptoms. From digestion and detox to stress, grief, and belief systems, she explains how tuning into your body's signals can drive practical change in daily choices. This direct conversation challenges “it's just age/genetics” thinking and offers a clear path: ask better questions, listen closely, and take aligned action.   About the guest : Beth Mielbrecht, known as a “health detective,” combines a background in mechanical engineering with training in Reiki, homeopathy, and bioenergetic testing. She helps clients uncover individualized root causes and create targeted next steps—without medical diagnosis or one-size-fits-all fixes.   Key takeaways:   Your body is not the enemy—it's always trying to heal; symptoms are messages, not mistakes. Treating pain without asking “why now, why here?” can mute signals but miss the root cause. Daily elimination, safe detoxification, and reducing exposure to common toxins can unlock stalled progress. Emotions matter: grief and chronic stress often map onto physical weak spots (e.g., lungs, adrenals, thyroid). Beliefs shape outcomes; closing the door on possibility narrows what you try—and what works. Practical cadence: ask specific questions → listen to what changes symptoms → act on small, testable steps. Track patterns (food, sleep, people, places) to see what reliably helps or harms. “Whole-body” isn't anti-medicine; it's expanding your health team and methods when standard paths stall. Gentle, personalized support (e.g., homeopathic/energetic tools) can increase capacity to move, engage, and live. Progress compounds: relief in one area (e.g., joints) can catalyze energy, mood, and life decisions.   How to connect with the guest  : Website: yourhealthwithbeth.comSocial: @YourHealthWithBethFree quiz available on the website.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

This week we cover topics from watching Hospital Bills and how to save money to news of Wilderness survival and new policy, record-breaking hunts to mythbusting jellyfish. Real-life stories that could save your life or keep money in your wallet. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! How to Save Money on Hospital and Insurance Bills — Even When You're Fully Covered When you're diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer, the last thing you want to worry about is money. But between insurance coverage, hospital billing departments, and ongoing treatments, out-of-pocket costs can spiral — even when you're fully insured. In 2021, I was diagnosed with cancer. I underwent 12 rounds of chemotherapy and 8 weeks of daily radiation. While my insurance was a blessing, I quickly discovered that being covered doesn't mean you're not vulnerable to costly billing mistakes — ones that could cost you thousands if you're not paying attention. Why You Must Compare Your EOB With Hospital Bills — Line by Line One of the most important lessons I learned: Always compare your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance provider to the bill from your hospital or healthcare provider. Here's what happened to me: Even after I had hit my out-of-pocket deductible, I noticed monthly hospital charges averaging around $900 in my online billing portal. After comparing the EOB to the hospital bills, I saw that some treatments weren't even being submitted to my insurance company. Instead, I was being billed directly — as if I had no coverage at all. I called my insurance company, who confirmed they hadn't received claims for those charges. Then I contacted the hospital's billing department and was told each time that it was a “mistake,” and they would resubmit. Had I not caught this, I could have paid over $10,000 in wrongful charges — with little chance of a refund later. Pro Tip: Don't Automatically Pay Medical Bills Without Verifying It's tempting to just pay the bill and be done with it — especially when you're overwhelmed and just trying to get through treatments. But trust your gut. Instead: Wait to receive your EOB before paying anything. Compare dates, services, and costs between the EOB and your hospital bill. Call your insurance company if anything doesn't line up. Then, contact your healthcare provider's billing department and request that charges be re-submitted if needed. Always Ask: "Has This Been Submitted to My Insurance?" Make it your mantra when speaking to any healthcare billing department: “Has this claim been submitted to my insurance company?” If they say no or “it was a mistake,” ask for proof of submission and a timeline. It can take weeks or even months for a corrected bill to show up — so document every call and keep all emails or confirmations. Human Error and AI Mistakes Are More Common Than You Think In today's digital world, hospitals and insurers often rely on automated systems for billing. But that doesn't mean the process is error-free. In fact, it may be worse. You might encounter: Incorrect coding of procedures Claims not submitted at all Duplicate billing Coverage miscalculations That's why your personal oversight is essential — especially when you're dealing with ongoing care. How to Protect Yourself from Costly Healthcare Billing Mistakes Here's a quick checklist to help you save money and protect your finances during a medical journey: Know your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum Track every treatment and procedure in a personal log Check your EOBs monthly and match them with bills Dispute errors right away — don't wait Keep records of every call and conversation Ask for itemized bills from providers Request written confirmation of any billing correction Final Thoughts: Be Your Own Advocate — It Could Save You Thousands Between AI systems, human error, and overloaded billing departments, even those with full insurance coverage can fall into financial traps. The stress of calling weekly to fix these issues took a toll, but in the end, it saved me thousands of dollars. The bottom line? Be proactive. Be persistent. And never assume a bill is correct just because it looks official. If you're navigating medical bills or complex treatments, you're not alone. If I hadn't spoken up, I would have unknowingly overpaid by thousands. Don't be afraid to double-check, question, and challenge what doesn't look right. Your health matters — and so does your wallet. 14-Year-Old Girl Makes Pennsylvania Hunting History with Record Bull Elk We've got a record-breaking hunting story that's as heartwarming as it is impressive. According to Outdoor Life, fourteen-year-old Samantha Bartlett just became the youngest hunter ever to tag a bull elk in Pennsylvania — and she did it with a single, well-placed shot from her crossbow! It all happened in the early morning hours of September 16, deep in the mountains of north-central PA. Samantha and her dad, Noel, had already spent three long days hiking and hunting, holding out for the right bull. On the fourth day, it finally came together. After hearing two bulls fighting at dawn, Samantha and her guide crept through tall grass and waited. With a few cow calls, a massive bull came trotting in. At 40 yards, Samantha took the shot — and nailed it. The 6x7 bull elk went down within 100 yards, and the rest is history. The animal was estimated at 800 pounds, and the rack green-scored at 310 inches. Getting the bull out? That was a whole different story. The team dragged it downhill for four hours — no vehicles allowed — proving once again that the hunt doesn't end with the shot. Her bull was officially checked at a game station in Benezette, where state officials confirmed Samantha's place in the record books. This big moment was made possible by a lucky draw for a limited bull elk tag — and by a new law allowing Sunday hunting in Pennsylvania for the first time, giving young hunters like Samantha more opportunities. What's next for her? She's got her sights set on the “Pennsylvania Quad Trophy” — elk, black bear, turkey, and deer — all with a crossbow. Talk about ambitious! Moral of the story? Don't underestimate a determined young hunter and her crossbow.

On Monday, Sept. 22, the man became separated from his group near the Three Sisters Trailhead in the Rawah Wilderness. The last anyone heard from him was a text saying he was lost, just before 3:30 p.m. His phone later went dark, and with winter weather rolling in, it was too dangerous for search teams to head out that night. By the next day, over 20 agencies — including Search and Rescue teams, deputies, and wildlife officials — launched a full-scale search in snowy, cold, and windy conditions. Air support was grounded, and rescuers battled through the backcountry on foot. Despite the brutal storm and tough terrain, the search effort continued into a second day. Then, on the afternoon of Wednesday, Sept. 24, hope came from above: the hunter was able to place several 911 calls, helping rescuers pinpoint his location. At around 1 p.m., air support spotted him — alive and in good health. So how did he make it? The hunter credited his survival to his military training, staying calm, building a fire, and using his sleeping bag and layers to stay warm. A big thanks goes out to Jackson and Grand County responders, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, search dog teams, and all others who helped pull off this dramatic rescue. Moral of the story? Being prepared can make all the difference — especially when Mother Nature has other plans.

Representative Harriet Hageman has introduced the Grizzly Bear State Management Act of 2025, which supporters say reflects decades of conservation success. Grizzly numbers in the region have rebounded from just a few hundred in the 1970s to nearly 1,000 today, meeting recovery targets set back in 1993. Advocates argue it's time to return management to the states, allowing for more flexible and responsive action on local issues — especially as livestock conflicts rise. Last year, grizzlies killed 91 cattle in Wyoming, the highest number on record. The bill also aims to cut through federal red tape, reinstating a Trump-era delisting rule and blocking future legal challenges that have stalled similar efforts. Supporters say it will free up resources at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and help speed up energy development and wildlife responses. While environmental groups warn that grizzlies still face genetic and habitat threats, Wyoming leaders say the bear has recovered — and state wildlife agencies are ready to manage them responsibly. Wyoming's stance? Grizzlies have recovered. It's time to let states take the reins.

These jellyfish are no joke: they can weigh up to 50 pounds and their tentacles can stretch as long as 70 feet. From Port Aransas to Corpus Christi, beachgoers are spotting more of them than ever before. Marine biologist Jace Tunnell from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi says it's unlike anything he's seen in years of beachcombing. “I grew up on the beach and had never seen one until this year,” he said. The “pink meanie” was only officially recognized in 2011 and is known for its cotton candy color and its appetite for other jellyfish — especially moon jellies, which are currently blooming in Gulf waters. What to Do If You Get Stung While the sting isn't life-threatening, it can hurt — lasting about 10 minutes with red marks that stay for a couple of days. Here's how to treat it: Get out of the water immediately. Remove tentacles carefully using gloves or a tool — don't use bare hands. Rinse the sting with seawater, not freshwater. Pour vinegar over the sting to neutralize any remaining stinging cells. Apply hot (not scalding) water for 20 minutes to ease the pain. Avoid rubbing the area, and watch for any signs of allergic reaction. Experts say these jellyfish likely won't stick around — once cooler weather hits, both moon jellies and pink meanies are expected to disappear from Texas shores.

Running a subscription box business can feel like a whirlwind. One month you're celebrating new subscribers, and the next you're carrying over tasks you didn't finish and the stress that causes. That's why a monthly reset is so powerful. It clears the clutter, refocuses your energy, and helps you move forward with intention. In this week's Friday Fuel episode of the Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm sharing five reset habits I use every month in my own business that will help you keep growing without the burnout. 1. Review Your Numbers Your numbers tell the story of your business. Take 30 minutes each month to check new subscribers, churn, revenue, and follower & list growth. Don't overcomplicate it. Track these numbers in a simple spreadsheet and look for patterns that point the way forward. 2. Clear the “Rocks in Your Backpack” Unfinished tasks weigh you down. At the start of the month, make a list of what's still hanging over you. Then delete what no longer matters, delegate what you can, and finish the ones that truly move the needle. 3. Set One or Two Goals Stop chasing everything. Choose one or two goals that actually grow your business this month, like growing your waitlist, setting up an ad campaign, or batching social content. Four weeks. One focus. Big progress. 4. Create a Roadmap Once you know your goals, map them out in 3–5 action steps. Keep it visible — in your planner, on a whiteboard, or even on your phone wallpaper — to stay focused all month long. 5. Build in Weekly Accountability Check in with yourself every week. Ask: What's my goal? What step am I on? Where am I stuck? Staying accountable keeps you from realizing at the end of the month that you've drifted off track. Your Friday Fuel Challenge Set aside one hour this weekend or Monday morning to walk through these five reset habits. Your future self — and your subscribers — will thank you.

How Workshops Win: Emotion-First Public Speaking for Cash-Based PT Lead Gen In this episode, Doc Danny Matta lays out how to fill your schedule by getting in front of real people—workshops, talks, and small group education—and connecting emotionally before you ever ask for the appointment. He explains direct-response marketing for cash-based clinics, the “feelings before logic” rule, and a practical script stack (frustration → “imagine if” → personal story → action) that turns talks into patients. Quick Ask Help PT Biz move toward the mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to our profession: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it. Episode Summary Direct-response > referrals: Cash clinics grow fastest by going straight to the people (gyms, clubs, teams, parent groups), not by waiting on physician referrals. Workshops convert: Live education (in-person or virtual) is a predictable way to create trust and book consults. Feelings before facts: Lead with frustration, fear, and hope—the human stuff—then layer in the plan. Positive vision beats fear: “Imagine if…” scenarios help audiences see the future they want and move toward it. Stories sell: Personal experience (e.g., your own injury journey) creates instant credibility and connection. Let them say it: When attendees voice their own stakes and frustrations, commitment skyrockets. The Emotional Connection Framework Appeal to feelings before logic. Name the frustration in their language (“Isn't it frustrating when…?”) to open the door to change. Use “Imagine if…” Paint a clear, positive future state (pain-free golf trips, finishing workouts, keeping up with kids). Share something personal. Brief, relevant story that mirrors their journey (e.g., your own ACL rehab or chronic pain lesson). Make them feel the problem. Skip the RCT lecture; speak to missed experiences and what they're giving up. Elicit their why. Ask direct questions so they articulate what's at stake—then show the next step. Field Notes & Examples Workshops that work: Gyms, run clubs, golf leagues, youth sports parents, corporate wellness lunches, and private FB groups. The “gruff granddad” story: A patient's Disney scooter and coaster seatbelt moment became the emotional turning point—once he said it, change followed. Military → MobilityWOD/CrossFit reps: Coaching, audits, and “mystery shopper” feedback sharpened delivery—reps matter. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Book two talks this month. One in person, one virtual. Keep each to 25–30 minutes + Q&A. Script the open. 90 seconds: frustration opener → “imagine if” vision → your 20-second origin story. Give a simple plan. 3 steps max. Clear, doable, no jargon. Single CTA. “Grab a free 15-minute consult today”—QR code + signup sheet + link. Debrief after. What hook landed? What question came up most? Tighten the next talk. Notable Quotes “If you want action, connect emotionally first. Feelings open the door; logic walks them through it.” “I'd rather pull people toward the future they want than push them with fear. ‘Imagine if…' changes the room.” “When they say what hurts and what they want back, commitment follows.” Action Items Create a 1-page workshop outline: opener, 3 teaching points, 1 CTA. Make a list of 10 local/digital groups and pitch your talk this week. Design a QR code to your consult page and practice the closing script. Track: attendees → consults → plans of care. Iterate monthly. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Coaching + plan to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale beyond yourself into space, team, and systems.
