Podcasts about Tracking

Garmin just launched a nutrition tracking feature inside the Garmin Connect app… so obviously, I had to test it.In this episode of The Fuel Run Recover Podcast, I'm breaking down my real-life experience using Garmin's new food tracking tool — what works, what doesn't, and who it might actually be helpful for.If you're already using Garmin+ and wondering whether this could replace your current tracking app (or if you're curious whether it's worth paying for), this episode is for you.Looking for the resources mentioned in today's episode?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your free fueling audit here!⁠And if you're ready for more support, I've got options—whether it's my brand-new ebook⁠ ⁠Fuel Smarter, Run Stronger⁠⁠, my group program⁠ ⁠The Fuel Train Recover Club,⁠⁠ or apply for limited spots in my personalized⁠ ⁠1:1 coaching ⁠⁠programs.

This week, Jason is joined by two of the most inspiring Detroit Lions fans you'll ever meet — Harry and Dan — in a special on-the-field episode recorded inside Ford Field after the Lions surprised Harry with an unforgettable day.Jason shares how a spontaneous Super Bowl concourse moment with Harry and Dan went viral for one simple reason: pure joy. But the story quickly became bigger — Harry's family reached out to reveal he's currently battling inoperable cancer, undergoing chemo to extend time, with no guarantee he'll make it to next season. What followed was a wave of support that reached the Detroit Lions, leading to a private tour, special messages, and a reminder of what can happen when the internet actually rallies around something good.Harry opens up about being overwhelmed by the attention, and why his approach to life has always been rooted in finding the good in every day, staying positive through the hard moments, and treating people with kindness and respect. Dan reflects on what makes Harry so loved — that he makes every interaction about the other person, and genuinely wants everyone around him to have a great day.Harry also talks about his career in the glass business and the rare kind of loyalty you almost never hear about anymore: after his diagnosis, his employer at Weather Guard Window Company gave him a written promise that he'd always have a job there, supporting him fully through treatment and time off when needed.Jason and David wrap with a powerful takeaway: the “power of humanity” is real — and Harry's light is proof that a single moment of kindness can ripple into thousands of people reconnecting with gratitude, perspective, and the people they love.Harry and Dan reveal all this and more in another episode you can't afford to miss!Trading Secrets Steals & Deals!Monarch:Monarch isn't your average personal finance app. Unlike most other personal finance apps, Monarch is built to make you proactive, not just reactive.

My paper, Seed Oils as a Hypothesized Contributor to Heart Disease: A Narrative Synthesis, explains that heart disease was rare before the 20th century and surged only after industrial seed oils became a dominant part of the food supply, pointing to a long-term dietary driver rather than sudden biological failure Linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils accumulates in your tissues and oxidizes easily, creating inflammatory damage inside arteries that builds silently for decades before symptoms appear The rise in seed oil consumption preceded the explosion in heart disease by 10 to 20 years, matching the slow timeline of plaque formation inside blood vessels Even if you avoid seed oils at home, LA remains embedded in packaged foods and restaurant meals, creating constant exposure that keeps arterial damage ongoing Tracking and reducing LA intake transforms heart disease from an inevitable outcome of aging into a long-term process you can influence

Fitness Week 12.3 (skipped) & 12.4 (negative mood shift and tracking mood)

Many dental practices feel surprised by their numbers at the end of the month, even when they review reports regularly. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with Miranda Beeson, leadership coach at ACT Dental, to explain the difference between leading and lagging indicators and why relying too heavily on historical data creates stress, reactivity, and missed opportunities. They break down how leading indicators connect daily behaviors to long-term results, how to spot problems earlier, and how to use data to lead calmly instead of reactively. If you want to understand which numbers actually help you influence outcomes before it's too late, listen to Episode 1009 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysLagging indicators show what has already happened in a practice and cannot be changed once reported.Leading indicators help predict future outcomes and guide daily and weekly behavior.Practices that focus only on lagging indicators often feel blindsided and become reactive under pressure.Tracking leading indicators weekly allows leaders to correct course before the end of the month.Hygiene reappointment, diagnostic percentage, and case acceptance are examples of leading indicators that influence production.Teams engage more effectively when they understand which daily actions influence practice results.Snippets00:52 Leading indicators versus lagging indicators and why both matter.02:28 Why lagging indicators create reactive leadership and team stress.03:50 Using hygiene metrics to predict future production.06:11 Planning ahead for known schedule disruptions like holidays.07:38 What it looks like when practices rely only on lagging indicators.09:42 How leadership changes when leading indicators are used correctly.11:39 Tracking diagnostic percentage and case acceptance week over week.14:47 A simple first step to start using leading indicators today.Guest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience. She is enthusiastic about communication and loves helping others find the power that words can bring to their patient interactions and practice dynamics. As a Lead Practice Coach, she is driven to create opportunities to find value in experiences and cultivate new approaches.Miranda graduated from Old Dominion University and enjoys spending time with her husband, Chuck, and her children, Trent, Mallory, and Cassidy.

An in-depth interview about the Shasta County measles case that has led to 160 monitored contacts, and what it means for the North State.

Kansas State University's long-running health and wellness program, Walk Kansas, is gearing up for its 26th year. The eight-week program, offered by K-State Extension, begins March 22nd and runs through May 16th. As the program continues to evolve, a new online tracking system is being implemented this year, and additional virtual trails are being designed for future years. Walk Kansas State Leader, Sharolyn Jackson, discusses how the program helps participants meet the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and offers tips to promote healthy eating and overall health and wellness. Sound Living is a weekly public affairs program addressing issues related to families and consumers. It is hosted by Jeff Wichman. Each episode shares the expertise of K-State specialists in fields such as child nutrition, food safety, adult development and aging, youth development, family resource management, physical fitness and more. Send comments, questions or requests for copies of past programs to ksrenews@ksu.edu. K‑State Research and Extension is a short name for the Kansas State University Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, a program designed to generate and distribute useful knowledge for the well‑being of Kansans. Supported by county, state, federal and private funds, the program has county Extension offices, experiment fields, area Extension offices and regional research centers statewide. Its headquarters is on the K‑State campus in Manhattan.

The steps in between big leaps, like little foot prints in the sand, are what make life worth living. Long strides cover many fronts, but little prints leave big clues. Facilitators, plans, and leadership building strategy. Persistent pressure as granular policy. Looks like organized trade craft in the subversive industry. A power network to bend institutions. The funding chain is simple, but key. Yield Giving is a McKinsey Scott (Bezo's Ex) managed finance vehicle. Out Front Minnesota and Ilhan Omar in her hijab. She meets with gay people her religion would burn. Foul smelling ethics can be technically lawful. Muscle memory for influencing reactions. For many, the zombie training is easy. Players are given a roll, their lane and detailed script. This is groundwork for a general strike. Hiding behind language is false protection from the law. Many of the same lefties are involved in multiple ops. We knew it was going to be a long war. The well financed and planned street opposition is proving that.

We tell ourselves it’s about safety.But what if tracking our kids is quietly costing them confidence, independence… and trust? With apps like Life360 becoming the norm, many parents are asking: Are we protecting our children — or projecting our anxiety onto them? In this episode, we unpack what constant monitoring does to developing autonomy, whether location-sharing normalises surveillance, and how to balance safety with healthy independence. If you’ve ever checked the app “just in case,” this conversation might change how you see it. KEY POINTS Why over-monitoring may increase anxiety — for parents and kids The developmental cost of constant surveillance How tracking impacts trust, autonomy, and competence When location sharing can work — and when it crosses a line The difference between safety conversations and safety control QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “When parents outsource their anxiety management to technology, children pay the developmental price.” RESOURCES Lenore Skenazy – Free-Range Kids Let Grow movement Claire Rowe (psychologist & parenting writer) Should We Be Tracking Our Kids? [Article] ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Ask yourself: Is this about safety — or my anxiety? Replace monitoring with problem-solving conversations. Gradually expand your child’s freedom in age-appropriate ways. If using location sharing, make it mutual and transparent. Focus on teaching capability, not controlling outcomes.

The balance of global power changed profoundly over the course of the twentieth century, above all with the economic and political rise of Asia. Asia after Europe: Imagining a Continent in the Long Twentieth Century (Harvard UP, 2024) is a bold new interpretation of the period, focusing on the conflicting and overlapping ways in which Asians have conceived their bonds and their roles in the world. Tracking the circulation of ideas and people across colonial and national borders, Sugata Bose explores developments in Asian thought, art, and politics that defied Euro-American models and defined Asianness as a locus of solidarity for all humanity.Impressive in scale, yet driven by the stories of fascinating and influential individuals, Asia after Europe examines early intimations of Asian solidarity and universalism preceding Japan's victory over Russia in 1905; the revolutionary collaborations of the First World War and its aftermath, when Asian universalism took shape alongside Wilsonian internationalism and Bolshevism; the impact of the Great Depression and Second World War on the idea of Asia; and the persistence of forms of Asian universalism in the postwar period, despite the consolidation of postcolonial nation-states on a European model.Diverse Asian universalisms were forged and fractured through phases of poverty and prosperity, among elites and common people, throughout the span of the twentieth century. Noting the endurance of nationalist rivalries, often tied to religious exclusion and violence, Bose concludes with reflections on the continuing potential of political thought beyond European definitions of reason, nation, and identity.

Happy Valentine's Day! Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks down proven strategies for monetizing and segmenting business email lists using platforms like Flodesk. Learn why email marketing delivers $36-$40 ROI for every dollar spent compared to social media, how to segment contacts based on behavior and engagement, and the technical foundations (DNS, backlinks, deliverability) that make campaigns successful. Discover workflows for turning subscribers into buyers through strategic segmentation, behavioral targeting, and quality-over-quantity content delivery.Episode Key Takeaways1. Email Marketing ROI Dominates Social Media – For every $1 spent on email marketing, businesses earn $36-$40 back, far exceeding social media returns.2. Segmentation Drives Conversions – Segment email lists by link clicks, engagement levels, and business vs. personal contacts to send targeted content that resonates.3. Technical Setup Matters – Proper DNS configuration, Google Search Console integration, and backlink strategies improve deliverability and SEO performance.4. Quality Over Quantity – Sending fewer, high-value emails with 15-minute read times generates more revenue than frequent, low-engagement blasts.5. Behavioral Targeting Wins – Track website behavior and email interactions to create personalized follow-up sequences that match subscriber intent.Episode Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: Monetizing and segmenting email lists[02:00] Why email outperforms social media ($36 ROI per $1)[05:00] Building business email lists as valuable assets[10:00] DNS, deliverability, and technical foundations[15:00] Segmentation strategies using link tracking[24:00] Creating consistency through targeted workflows[27:00] Backlinks and SEO benefits from email campaigns[32:00] Calculating engagement: 50 touchpoints = $36 product[45:00] Flowdesk features and automation workflows[68:00] Frequency matters: Quality beats quantity[71:00] Behavioral targeting and site tracking integrationPodcast Episode FAQsQ: What email marketing platform does Favour recommend?A: Favour specifically discusses Flowdesk for its segmentation capabilities, checkout features, and workflow automation that allow precise targeting based on subscriber behavior.Q: How often should I send emails to my list?A: Quality beats quantity. Favour sent only one email in February but generated revenue, leads, and referrals. Ask your audience through polls how often they want to hear from you.Q: What's the difference between business and personal email contacts?A: Business emails (domains like @company.com) engage differently and should be segmented separately. They're checked 3-5 times daily and represent higher-value prospects.Q: How do I improve email deliverability?A: Configure DNS records properly (A, TXT, CNAME), connect to Google Search Console, build backlinks through anchor text in emails, and maintain engagement with quality content.Q: What is behavioral targeting in email marketing?A: Tracking which links subscribers click, what pages they visit on your website, and how they engage with content to send personalized follow-up sequences that match their interests.Memorable Quotes by Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS"For every dollar that you spend on email, you get $36 to $40 back compared to social media where you may not get up to a dollar back or $2 back.""The best person to tell about what you wrote on your website is your contact list—the same way the best person to tell about something is your best friend.""I can have 50% open rate and no sales, that's vanity. But if you have 10-20% and that gives you more revenue because it's the right audience and it's segmented, then it helps a lot.""Don't just post on your website and expect magic to happen, abracadabra. You have to be intentional, you have to be factual.""Quality beats quantity. If you're actually able to capture that first party data and implement site tracking, it's very powerful to segment those people and send them follow-up messages."Book SEO Services | Quick Links for Social Business>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book SEO Services with Favour Obasi-ike⁠>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats Online>> Favour Obasi-ike Quick LinksSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Eighteen thousand tips and counting. Body language experts on every platform. Family videos analyzed frame by frame by people who've never worked a case. The Nancy Guthrie investigation has become a national obsession — and everyone thinks they're qualified to solve it.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke spent twenty-one years at the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He knows how to read people. He also knows the difference between professional behavioral assessment and what happens when millions of untrained observers decide they can spot guilt from a two-minute video.In this interview, Dreeke breaks down the audience problem. The Guthrie family is performing grief under a microscope — they know every word will be analyzed, every pause interpreted, every gesture judged. That self-consciousness changes how they present themselves. And then the public reads those changes as suspicious.Investigators are drowning in tips from people who genuinely believe they've spotted something. Most are wrong. Some are based on nothing more than gut feelings after watching videos online. How do you filter signal from that kind of noise?And the perpetrator is part of the audience too. Watching the coverage. Tracking the theories. Seeing how close — or how far — the investigation appears to be.Is all this attention helping solve the case? Or is it making everything harder?#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimeToday #FBIBehavioral #AmateurDetectives #SavannahGuthrie #BodyLanguage #TipLine #InternetSleuths #MissingPersonJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Should Gallup continue to track presidential approval ratings? Gallup is ending a 90-year tradition of measuring presidential approval, stepping away from the very metric that has defined modern political accountability—from FDR to Trump and Biden. Michael explores why the polling giant is exiting both horse-race election surveys and now approval ratings, whether political pressure or business strategy is driving the shift, and what it means in an era of historic polarization. Do approval ratings still serve a vital civic purpose, or have they become little more than partisan ammunition? Your vote at Smerconish.com frames the debate.

In this clinician-focused episode of The Light Inside, Jeffrey Besecker sits down with Lincoln Stoller to explore how moral gating, progress narratives, and interpretive intrusion quietly shape the therapeutic encounter. Drawing from embodied tracking, neural imprinting, pacing, and relational attunement, this conversation moves beyond technique into the lived tension between guidance and control, confusion and clarity, progress and presence.Together, they examine how unconscious and subconscious patterns surface in the therapy room—especially at the edge point where shame, guilt, and identity defense activate. What happens when the therapist becomes the canvas for projection? When does “progress” become moral pressure? And how do we track rupture before it becomes relational collapse?This episode is grounded in the live exchange between Jeffrey and Lincoln, highlighting the nuanced interplay of boundary, capacity, and commitment in real time .Guest Highlight:Lincoln Stoller is a therapist and educator whose work integrates hypnotherapy, neurofeedback, and experiential reframing, inviting clients into generative confusion as a pathway to change.Three Core TakeawaysProgress vs. PresenceThe drive for forward movement can subtly become moral pressure—both for therapist and client. Tracking embodied cues helps differentiate authentic movement from identity-driven urgency.Moral Gating at the EdgeShame and guilt often surface at the boundary of growth. Without careful pacing and attunement, therapeutic direction can inadvertently reinforce the very defenses it seeks to soften.Relational Field AwarenessSubtle cues—eye aversion, breath shifts, withdrawal—signal rupture before narrative explanation does. Regulation and sequencing matter more than insight alone.Timestamp00:03 – Framing the Conversation04:30 – Client Story vs. Therapeutic Direction17:55 – Progress, Suggestion, and Intrusion24:48 – Tracking Rupture in Real Time32:15 – The Edge of Capacity38:33 – Therapist Identity & Fixing45:42 – Embodied Tracking & Neural Imprinting59:12 – Live Relational Processing1:04:02 – “You Are Allowed to Moralize”Why This Episode MattersFor trauma-informed clinicians, supervisors, and advanced practitioners, this dialogue illuminates how easily therapeutic intention can slide into subtle moralization—and how relational attunement, pacing, and embodied awareness restore coherence within the field.If your work involves navigating shame, rupture, identity threat, or high-performing clients who resist vulnerability, this conversation offers a nuanced lens into how growth actually unfolds—at the edge.CreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: Lincoln StollerExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.

A former Marine infantry sergeant breaks twenty years of silence about what happened to him in the Trinity Alps Wilderness of Northern California in October 2003. He didn't want to write in. He's not a Bigfoot guy. But his teenage daughter listens to the show and finally wore him down.Mike and two lifelong hunting buddies were on a five-day backcountry elk hunt deep in the Trinity Wilderness, roughly fourteen miles from the nearest trailhead.On the third day, he picked up on something most people would've missed — the gut-level feeling of being watched and paced. Instead of panicking, he ran deliberate route changes and counter-surveillance techniques to confirm what his instincts were telling him. Something large and bipedal was tracking them from two to three hundred yards back, using terrain and timber for concealment with a discipline he'd later associate with trained military scouts.On the fourth night, it closed the distance to forty yards and stood at the edge of their camp. His buddy nearly fired. Mike stopped him — not out of compassion, but out of a cold tactical calculation that still resonates twenty years later. They packed out at first light and covered fourteen miles in a single push.Mike went on to enlist in the Marines, served two combat tours in Iraq including Fallujah, and earned a Purple Heart. He says what he experienced in the Trinity Alps scared him worse than anything he faced overseas.This episode explores why, and what his story tells us about the intelligence, patience, and capabilities of whatever's living in those mountains.This is one of the most detailed and tactically sophisticated encounter reports we've ever received on this show.

What if "getting PR" isn't about hype at all—but about engineering trust at scale? In this episode, Peter Winick sits down with KJ Blattenbauer, founder of Hearsay PR and author of Pitchworthy: The No-Fluff Playbook to Publicity That Pays Off, who helps founders, creatives, and experts turn clear storytelling and smart media strategy into real authority—without the fluff.   She breaks down what PR actually does: find the story behind your expertise, explain why it matters now, and package it for real-world attention spans. KJ makes the case that your work doesn't "speak for itself" anymore. Not in a market where everyone is being commoditized and AI is accelerating sameness. You still need great work. But you also need amplification. And you need it across the channels where your buyers learn, compare, and decide. We get practical about what "good PR" looks like when you're building a thought leadership platform. Not one hit. Not one logo. Repetition that compounds. One appearance leads to the next. Visibility builds recognition. Recognition builds preference. It's the gym, not the lottery. KJ also brings discipline to measurement. Systems first. Message alignment across platforms. Tracking links so you know what's working and where demand is coming from. Because "branding" is not a strategy when you're accountable for revenue. And if "promotion" makes you cringe, this part matters: KJ reframes PR as service. If your ideas can help people, hiding them is the real ego play. The goal isn't fame. It's getting your work into the rooms where it can do its job. Finally, we tackle the AI question. KJ's take is sharp: AI can support systems and repurposing, but the human story is the differentiator—and audiences are hungry for it.   Three Key Takeaways: • Your work won't speak for itself—amplification is part of the job. Do good work, yes. But you have to shepherd it into the right rooms, at the right time, with the right message. PR is the tool that helps that happen • Authority is built by consistency, not a one-time splash. Waiting until you "have something to promote" costs you money, recognition, and momentum. Start now. Show up regularly. Trust compounds when people see your ideas repeatedly across formats.  • PR is story + packaging for short attention spans—and it can't be a black box. The core job is uncovering what's interesting about your expertise, why it matters now, and presenting it in a way people will actually pay attention to. Then put systems around it (including tracking) so it ties back to real outcomes. If this episode got you thinking about amplifying expertise into authority, go cue up Episode 13 with Pete Weisman next. You'll get a practical playbook for turning strong ideas into executive-level visibility—including how to diversify your offerings, focus your audience, and claim a clear niche so your thought leadership lands with the people who can say "yes." It aligns perfectly with the themes you just heard: amplification over hoping, consistency over one-off wins, and strategy over random activity—all aimed at building recognition that actually supports growth.

Has your intuition ever kept you out of harm's way? Mine did last week. And it reminded me how powerful our inner wisdom really is. The Power of Intuition and Mindset Shifts Today, I want to share two recent experiences. One is about a powerful mindset shift that surprised me. The other is about an intuitive message that quite possibly kept me from being injured. Both are examples of what I call Midlife Magic. Using energy, mindset, spiritual tools, and intuition to move through life with awareness and choice. There are certainly days when things don't go my way. I'm not floating through life pretending everything is perfect. But even on hard days, I consciously choose how I respond. I process what I feel, and then I look for a perspective that supports me instead of drains me. That's not spiritual bypassing. It's intentional living. Midlife Magic is available to anyone who chooses it. And midlife, by the way, is whatever age you decide it is. You're in charge of that. One of the gifts of this stage of life is wisdom. You've lived long enough to recognize patterns. You've made mistakes and learned from them. That wisdom shows up in small moments, in your ability to pause, to choose differently, to listen inward before reacting. And that's where today's first story begins. A Dubious Compliment Last week I received a LinkedIn message from a man I don't know. He told me my astonishing smile brightened his entire day. Oh, I'm sure it did. If you've been online longer than five minutes, you know the pattern. Flattery. Vague admiration. A setup for something questionable. There were so many ways I could have reacted. I could have been annoyed. Disgusted. I could have reported him. I could have spiraled into irritation and let it affect my entire mood. Instead, I paused. And in that pause, I noticed something important. I didn't actually want to experience any of those reactions. Yes, they were understandable. But I had another option. A thought popped into my head that felt lighter and more empowering. What if I just take the compliment as if it came from the Universe instead of from him? Not the motive. Not the person. Just the compliment. I deleted the message. But before I did, I allowed myself to imagine that my presence, my energy, my smile could brighten someone's day. Whether he meant it sincerely was irrelevant. I chose to let that part be true for me. That's Midlife Magic. Choose Where Your Energy Goes This isn't about ignoring your feelings. First you feel and acknowledge them. Then you decide where your energy goes. This is a mindset shift. I didn't need to analyze his intention or let irritation hijack my nervous system. I decided to focus on the version of me who moves through the world with ease and sparkle instead of armor and suspicion. And that choice changed how I felt. We all know how easy it is to spiral downward. One moment of yuck can drain your energy. Then you have to recover and that takes time and effort. But when you practice shifting perspective, you build a different pattern. Interestingly, research supports this. Studies from the National Institutes of Health show that happiness isn't something that randomly appears. It's shaped by what we repeatedly focus on and value. When you linger on a good moment, appreciate something small, or engage in something meaningful, you're reinforcing neural pathways that make it easier to notice what's working. Over time, those tiny choices train your brain to default toward steadiness rather than stress. And here's the key: intuition becomes easier to hear when your nervous system feels safe and resourced. When you aren't constantly frazzled, your inner voice gets clearer. Be Open, But Discerning A friend told me a story that beautifully illustrates this idea. Her nephew once saw a woman on Instagram he found attractive. He sent her a direct message that simply said, “What's up?” Yes. That was it. The woman responded with, “Do I know you?” They started chatting and now they are happily married. I'm not suggesting you respond to every random message. Not at all. Discernment matters and so does safety. Yet, sometimes opportunity arrives in unexpected packaging. The lesson isn't to always engage. It’s that you get to CHOOSE. You can stay open without abandoning your wisdom. You can be discerning without being closed. Where in your life could you be just a little more open? What has shown up recently that rubbed you the wrong way at first glance? And is there a silver lining you could take while leaving the rest behind? You don't have to force positivity. You simply get to decide what something means to you. That's real wisdom and power. Now let me share the story about how my intuition kept me safe. Intuitive Messages There's a door in my house that leads from the family room to the garage. The locking mechanism has been slightly off for months, so the door has to be slammed to close properly. One freezing morning, after slamming it on my way out, I heard a calm inner voice say, “Look up.” There was no panic or fear. Just a quiet suggestion. So I turned around and looked up. Above the door hangs a large, heavy horseshoe, one of my husband's blacksmith treasures. The two nails holding it in place were sticking out nearly an inch. It was hanging at an angle and could easily have fallen on one of us. If I hadn't looked up, it very well might have. I immediately felt gratitude and said “Thank you” to the sender of that message. Later, my husband rehung it more securely. The crisis was averted. That calm inner message is what intuition often feels like for me. Not dramatic or loud. Just clear. This wasn't the first time. Years ago, I heard an inner nudge to tell a barking dog, “I love you.” It sounded ridiculous. I almost ignored it. But I said it anyway. The dog stopped barking and never barked at me again. Over time, I've noticed patterns like this. Warnings about people. Guidance about jobs. Alerts about small dangers like a candle rolling out of its holder and burning the table. Ignoring Intuition Has Consequences When I was younger, I ignored these intuitive nudges and suffered the consequences. Now I don't. That's part of the wisdom that comes with midlife. You recognize patterns and trust your track record. Then, you pay attention to the information received. And that deep well of inner knowing is always available. Isn't it time you accessed your inner wisdom and magic more deliberately?People who rely on their intuition have many advantages in life. Start by setting an intention to notice your intuition.  Then keep an evidence journal. Write down the nudges you followed, the ones you ignored, and the outcomes. Pay attention to the feelings in your body. Tracking the evidence builds self-trust. It makes intuition feel real and reliable rather than vague or imaginary. Over time, those whispers stop feeling questionable and start feeling trustworthy. That's Midlife Magic. And the best news is that it's already inside you!

Most people think effort compounds automatically. Do enough. Try long enough. Eventually, it works. This episode challenges that belief. Execution Without Leverage is about what happens when productivity becomes camouflage. When being busy replaces being effective. Nick Laudano spent 30+ years building a successful tech career. An acquisition ended it overnight. What followed was a year of disciplined job searching. Applications. Tracking. Consistency. Zero traction. The problem wasn't effort. It was the signal. In this conversation, Nick breaks down the moment he stopped applying, turned off notifications, and replaced reactivity with conversations. He stopped chasing openings and started choosing people. The market responded fast. Not with luck. With alignment. If you're doing all the right things and nothing is moving. If you're busy but not advancing. If your effort feels responsible but ineffective. This episode is the mirror. In 2026, the market doesn't reward volume. It rewards clarity, confidence, and signals that reduce risk. Busy or traction. Choose carefully. Follow Nick Laudano LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicklaudano/ If this episode hit close to home, pass it along. Leave a rating and review.

health check Taking Care of Your Health Before It Forces You To | Episode 585 Good morning. It's 35 degrees, it's cold, and today we're talking about something that doesn't trend on YouTube and doesn't get clicks like “grid down tomorrow” — your health. There's a reason I'm covering this now. A guy I've known since I was about 11 passed away recently. Football teammate. Same schools. Long history. Early word is it may have been a cardiac event. And before we go any further — I am not saying any advice in this episode would have saved him. Sometimes things just happen. But if you're neglecting your health? This is your wake-up call. You're Not “Just Getting Old” I'm 44. And for a while I told myself the fatigue was normal. Weird sleep schedule. Overtime. Overnight shifts. Aches and pains. That's just aging, right? That mindset is a trap. Yes, you shouldn't run to the doctor for every sniffle. I didn't. But you also shouldn't just accept feeling like garbage as your new baseline. If you wake up tired every day. If your joints hurt constantly. If your energy is gone. That's data. Don't ignore it. Trying to Fix It Yourself (And When That Stops Working) If you've listened for a while, you know I've been troubleshooting my own health. Testosterone. Supplements. Methylated vitamins. Higher-dose vitamin D. Peptides. Cutting things out. Adding things in. Tracking symptoms with ChatGPT. Logging fatigue, flare-ups, lab numbers, theories. Some things helped briefly. Some did nothing. Some made things worse. At some point, you have to admit: you're guessing. I finally used telehealth through my terrible insurance and got bloodwork done. Electrolytes, kidney function, autoimmune markers. Most came back fine. Except two didn't. ANA positive.Anti–double stranded DNA positive (low positive). Those markers can point toward autoimmune issues. Possibly lupus. I'm not self-diagnosing. I'm seeing a rheumatologist. But I finally have data instead of guesses. That matters. Don't Wait Until It's Out of Control Here's the prepper lesson. We stock food before we're starving.We store water before we're thirsty.We build first aid kits before we're bleeding. But most people ignore their blood pressure, ignore chronic fatigue, ignore pain, ignore lab work — until it explodes. At minimum: Get bloodwork once a year. Know your baseline numbers. Track changes over time. If something's off, address it early. You don't even have to rely entirely on a doctor to initiate it. There are affordable lab services where you can order panels yourself and see the numbers. That yearly snapshot alone is powerful. Preparedness includes your body. Stop White-Knuckling It For months, the only thing helping me push through fatigue was kratom. Say what you want — it helped me function. But that's a band-aid. It's not a diagnosis. White-knuckling your way through work, overtime, parenting, life — that's not strength. That's deferred maintenance. If you wouldn't run your truck with the oil light on for six months, don't do it to your body. You are the most important piece of gear you own. Final Thoughts I don't know yet what's going on with me. Maybe it's autoimmune. Maybe it's iron depletion. Maybe it's something else entirely. What I do know is this: ignoring it wasn't working. Take care of your health before it forces you to.Get the data. Make informed decisions.And stop pretending feeling terrible is just part of getting older.

Today, I'm taking a closer look at the growing pressure so many of us feel around health optimization, especially during midlife, when simply keeping up with the latest wellness and beauty trends and advice can start to feel like another full-time job. I'm breaking down why health information and solutions constantly inundate us, and the mental and financial costs of trying to do it all, and I'm sharing practical ways to bring more ease and intention back into our daily routines. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by constantly shifting "rules" or found yourself buried in trackers, apps, wearables, and endless wellness products, this episode is your permission slip to turn down the noise and refocus on what truly supports your well-being. We can reclaim self-care as something that fits into our lives rather than another source of stress.  Show Highlights: The growing weight of health advice. [00:53] Understanding the strategic health industry trap. [03:51] The engineered pressure to solve perceived problems. [06:18] Tracking fatigue and why more data isn't always better care. [07:12] Consciously choosing what not to track or act upon. [09:37] Shifting from performative to supportive self-care. [10:18] What should be the actual role of health and self-care? [11:38] Practical steps to curate health inputs and regain balance. [12:43] Where does vanity pressure end and health begin in marketing?

She also shares how she reaches her buyers, and the unexpected path that led her to working with Netflix. Hilary talks about her friendship with Jill Zarin, why she has no plans to join the Real Housewives franchise, and the kinds of shows she actually enjoys. She reflects on how her son views her time on reality TV, a moment she wishes she had heard in real time, and the biggest lessons she took from the experience—especially when it comes to protecting her son and maintaining her values around love and money.She also gets into the details of her closet, her personal rules of etiquette, her charity work, and the future goals she's most excited about.Hilary reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!Host: Jason TartickCo-Host: David ArduinAudio: John GurneyGuest: Hilary Musser + WebsiteStay connected with the Trading Secrets Podcast! Instagram: @tradingsecretspodcast Youtube: Trading SecretsFacebook: Join the GroupTrading Secrets Steals & Deals!Monarch:Monarch isn't your average personal finance app. Unlike most other personal finance apps, Monarch is built to make you proactive, not just reactive.
