On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Kasia Bukowska—an equine therapist, artist, and mindset mentor—about how horses act as living mirrors for our emotions. Kasia shares her journey from a lupus diagnosis and doctors saying she'd never ride again to regulating her nervous system, rebuilding identity, and teaching connection-first horsemanship. We cover equine-assisted healing, reading energy over “technique,” creating psychological safety with animals, and practical ways non-riders can cultivate grounded presence. About the guest Kasia Bukowska is an internationally recognized equine therapist, artist, and mindset mentor. Featured in Sidelines, Horse Illustrated, and on the cover of Barefoot Horse, she blends energy work, emotional awareness, and creative expression to help people release blocks, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with authentic self-trust—partnering with horses as teachers. Key takeaways: Horses mirror our internal state; they respond to our truth, not our masks, making them powerful partners for nervous system regulation and trauma healing. Connection and energetic safety outperform rigid “technique.” When pressure and performance drop, curiosity and learning rise—for both human and horse. A slower equine heart rate and calm presence entrain us toward steadier breath and body; co-regulation creates conditions for change. Identity work is central: Kasia's healing moved from “riding again” to valuing herself beyond achievement, borrowing her horses' unconditional regard as a bridge to self-worth. Practical start for non-riders: observe animals (even pets) without agenda; notice emotional reactions, breathe, and let insight arise. Presence > control. With dysregulated horses (or people), build safety first: create a protected space, invite play and novelty (e.g., props), reward curiosity, and allow movement to discharge energy. Progress collapses when expectations harden; staying playful, flexible, and patient maintains trust and results. Feeling “stuck” isn't failure—it's a precursor to clarity. Fully feeling emotions can open space for creative solutions and next steps.

On this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, Mayor Teresa Thomas-Smith shares a direct, practical lens on leadership: your inner voice sets the ceiling for your strategy, culture, and impact. We dig into stripping away the “best self” mask, why vulnerability is a leadership asset (not a weakness), and simple practices to rewrite self-talk so results shift—at work and at home. Expect grounded examples, a real story of reframing under pressure, and clear steps to build an authentic, values-led leadership presence. Search-friendly themes: leadership mindset, authentic leadership, inner narrative, self-talk, mental fitness for leaders, emotional resilience, boundaries, trauma-informed growth. About the Guest : Teresa Thomas-Smith is the first African American and first female Mayor of Palmetto, Georgia. A global speaker and transformational strategist, she champions “lead her ship”—leading from essence, not titles—through radical authenticity, compassion, and practical inner work. Key Takeaways: Authenticity is whole-self leadership: stop performing a “best self” and lead as a full human so others feel safe to do the same. Self-talk is the foundation: strategy and skills are only as strong as the inner voice driving them. Name the ego, don't obey it: acknowledge the loud, critical voice and consciously choose the truer one. Give yourself grace: change happens “right now,” one choice at a time—especially when you feel stuck. Write your story: put the desired outcome on paper; clarity + intention reduce fear and organize action. Release what no longer serves: notice old vows, roles, or narratives and consciously let them go. Your energy leads the room: remembered essence creates lightness, connection, and trust in teams. Practical starter: when negative self-talk spikes, pause, name it, thank it for trying to protect you, and release it; then speak a truer sentence aloud.

In this week's episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with author, mental health advocate, and suicide loss survivor Lisa Sugarman. Lisa's journey is one of resilience, grief, and transformation—from losing her father at a young age, to later discovering the truth about his death, and ultimately turning her pain into purpose. She reflects on the nonlinear twists of her career, from journalism to parenting columns, and how her lived experiences reshaped her work and calling. Today, Lisa is the author of four books, the founder of The Help Hub, a crisis counselor with The Trevor Project, and co-host of The Survivors podcast. Lisa redefines success as impact and authenticity rather than achievement. She speaks to the importance of listening to our kids, creating space for honesty, and embracing life's twists as part of the journey. Her story is a powerful reminder that showing up vulnerably can inspire hope and healing.Lisa's Resources: Social Media:Instagram: @lisa_sugarmanFacebook: The Lisa SugarmanLinktree: linktr.ee/thelisasugarmanLinkedIn: Lisa SugarmanWebsite & Platform:The Help Hub — Lisa's survivor-led platform for mental health resources and communityBooks:Surviving: Finding Hope After Suicide Loss (forthcoming, 2026 release) — Lisa's upcoming mental health bookHow to Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids and Be Okay with ItPodcast:The Survivors Podcast — Co-hosted by Lisa SugarmanOrganizations & Affiliations:The Trevor Project — Crisis support for LGBTQ+ youthSamaritans Boston — Grief support and suicide prevention servicesNAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) — Mental health education and advocacyConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #EmotionalHealing #TraumaRecovery #TheSu
Fresh off my self-supported AT record, I sit down with 2013 AT self-supported FKT holder Matt Kirk to talk about the weird gravity of post-trail depression, the long arc of the record from Ward Leonard to Stringbean to Tara, and where the line is with tech, tracking, and “help” on a self-supported effort. We dig into calories gone wrong (why 3,500/day failed), Shenandoah as a quiet crux, trail magic ethics, and why simplicity might be the best rule we have left. Matt shares the origin story of SCAR, naming it, and—plot twist—how he met his wife on the AT. I share some nuts and bolts from my run (18 mail drops, ~12 power banks, and way too much battery anxiety), and we both argue for screen-free campfire vibes and keeping the culture alive while the times keep dropping.If you're into FKTs, thru-hiking history, or just need a blueprint for surviving the “now what?” after a big goal, this one's for you.Check out Matt Kirk online:His Blog: https://matthewkirk.blogspot.com/His Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXrGFci8u_goKfnP8PqkaLADonate to the Trevor Project: https://give.thetrevorproject.org/fundraiser/6530749Chapters00:00 Post-Hike Transition and Emotional Challenges02:40 Caloric Miscalculations and Preparation for FKT05:31 Evolution of FKT Records and Technological Advances08:21 The Impact of Previous Record Holders10:48 Guidelines for Self-Supported Hiking13:28 Documenting the Journey: Technology and Tracking16:21 The Balance of Simplicity and Validation in Records19:02 Reflections on the Future of FKT Attempts27:13 Navigating Resupply Challenges32:58 Mental Strategies for Endurance37:13 The Importance of Reflection41:06 Journey into Ultrarunning and FKTs51:09 The Cost of Technology in Hiking54:15 Navigating Technology and Safety on the Trail56:42 The Impact of Technology on Hiking Culture01:00:18 The Balance of Trail Magic and Self-Sufficiency01:05:01 Personal Stories: Meeting on the TrailSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

Ten days off the Appalachian Trail and I'm deep in the post-trail fog—so I'm doing what any reasonable human would: grading my own record attempt. In this episode I hand out a full report card on the AT self-supported FKT—physical execution, sleep, injuries, nutrition (hello 1,000-cal drink mix), logistics (RIP Shenandoah resupply), mental game, weather, terrain, and storytelling—then tally the GPA. I riff on why drone shots aren't a story, share some Mammoth 200 takes, and explain how two left shoes, a missing electronics bag, and shoe-toe peekaboo somehow still add up to a record. We hit night hiking tactics, the “toughness groove,” and field a few listener questions. Also: a quick bit on why it's “Appalachia,” not “Appa-lay-sha.”If this episode resonated, consider donating to The Trevor Project (link below)—they provide life-saving support and resources.Donate to the Trevor Project: https://give.thetrevorproject.org/fundraiser/6530749Sponsors that kept me moving: Janji (Snappy Trekker shirt & 5" AFO Ultra shorts), ReadyWise (my breakfast scramble), CS Instant Coffee (trail rocket fuel), and Garage Grown Gear (where cottage dreams live).

Eight days after setting the Appalachian Trail self-supported FKT, I sit down with my girlfriend, Allison Powell, for the most comprehensive post-mortem yet. We unpack the messy middle: inReach texts that read like hieroglyphics, a resupply box that vanished in Shenandoah, two left shoes (and a toe popping through the right one), a broken pole in New York, rain that no radar would admit, and the late-race sit-and-kick that finally stuck. We talk about the A-T(eam) group thread with John (yes, the Mexico engagement guy), what it's like supporting a record you're not allowed to “help” on, the pre-race spreadsheet rabbit hole, asking strangers for walnuts, hallucinating Slenderman, and touching the Springer sign before pizza and sleep. It's grit, humor, and the playbook for turning “one in a billion” into done.

After 2,200 miles, 45 days, and more duct-taped shoes than I care to admit, I finally set the self-supported Appalachian Trail FKT. In this episode, Allison Mercer and I dive into the full story—why I went back to the AT, how it nearly broke me (again), and what it takes to push through when your body is screaming “stop” but you've still got 80 miles to cover.Consider supporting the Trevor Project: https://give.thetrevorproject.org/fundraiser/6530749?We talk about the shoe disaster (two left shoes, then two right shoes), sleepless nights, eerie solo miles, and the weird little things that kept me going—like listening to Pirates vs. Marlins baseball games at midnight in the green tunnel. We get into the strategy of easing into the miles, then ratcheting up the effort until there's nothing left to give.Buy a hoodie and support the Trevor Project: https://www.bonfire.com/fastest-known-tiger/This wasn't just about me or a number on a spreadsheet.

Yo, what's good, packaging people? Adam Peek here, and you know how we roll—we're diving deep into the real talk behind building a brand. On this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Jack McNamara and Yash Banthia, the co-founders of Tru Energy Drinks. These guys aren't just making a great-tasting, better-for-you beverage; they're building a brand with a purpose, and their story is a masterclass in hustle and smart business decisions.From the Dungeon to DrinkTru.comJack and Yash's journey is the kind of scrappy startup story you love to hear. We're talking about a a literal dungeon—the basement of a Jiu-Jitsu gym—and a mindset of relentless improvement. We got into the nitty-gritty of their brand's evolution, from the early days of a crazy-expensive, custom-designed shot bottle that customers didn't even understand, to their current sleek, pre-printed cans. It's a prime example of why you can't be afraid to kill your darlings and embrace change, even if it means moving away from your original, most "creative" idea.The Power of Packaging EvolutionThis is where the real value bombs were dropped. We broke down:* The Cost of Creativity: Why a custom-molded bottle wasn't the right move for them early on, and how tooling costs can crush a new brand's cash flow.* The Sprint to Scale: The massive leap from a small, local co-packer to a national one, and the significant 35% savings they unlocked by switching from shrink sleeves to pre-printed cans. This is a crucial lesson in understanding your supply chain and the economies of scale.* Reading the Room (and the Shelf): How a simple redesign, like moving the brand name to the top and adding a clear flavor stripe, can make all the difference in a competitive retail environment. We talked about consumer behavior and why you've got two seconds to communicate what your product is.Products with a PurposeOne of the coolest things about Tru is their commitment to giving back. I had to call them out for not leading with their charitable contributions—they're just out there doing good because it's the right thing to do. We discussed their partnership with the Trevor Project and how building a brand with a strong mission, even when you're not yet profitable, can be a huge motivator for the team.Big shout-out to Jack and Yash for their time and their transparency. If you're out there building a CPG brand, trying to figure out your packaging, or just need a dose of entrepreneurial inspiration, this episode is for you.Check out Tru's full product line at drinktru.com and grab a can or a powder pack to fuel your next big idea. Don't forget to look for them at stores like Market Basket, Wegmans, and H-E-B.And hey, if you're ever in Salt Lake City, hit up Harmons and tell 'em Adam sent you! And yes, a special shout-out to my parents, Ed and Lydia Peek, and Jack's toddler. Thanks for listening, everyone! This is a public episode.

In this episode of the Free Outside Podcast, I replay one of my all-time favorite convos — a sit-down with Tara Dower, who absolutely crushed the supported Appalachian Trail FKT and somehow lived to tell the tale (barely).Consider supporting The Trevor Project https://give.thetrevorproject.org/JeffATWe talk about everything from post-trail depression to how it feels when your crew spoon-feeds you every meal for 40 days straight. Tara breaks down the power of delegation, what it's like to lose all decision-making autonomy, and how a dog bite during a panic attack marked the low point of her hiking career (and also maybe the turning point).She also shares how pacing Kyle Curtin on the Colorado Trail helped her build her own FKT strategy, why her crew was the real MVP, and how she managed to crush Hardrock 100 just weeks before starting her AT attempt.This isn't just a recap of a record — it's an honest look at fear, failure, mental health, and the grind it takes to do something massive. Plus, Tara drops her next FKT plans and talks about the weird joy of vlogging in a blizzard.If you're curious about how to plan for an FKT this big — or just want to hear two sleep-deprived trail nerds bond over anxiety and peanut butter — you'll love this one.Sponsored by:Janji – Use code FREEOUTSIDE for a discountGarage Grown Gear – Ultralight dreamlandCS Coffee – My trail coffee of choiceMount to coast – Big things brewingUltraspire - A cool pack is on the way Chapters00:00 Introduction to Tara Dower's Achievements07:52 The Journey to the Appalachian Trail FKT13:47 Lessons from Failure: The 2017 Attempt20:03 The Importance of Crew Dynamics26:12 Planning for the FKT: The Trail Bible32:32 Looking Ahead: Future Plans and Goals41:44 The Evolution of FKT Training49:55 The Role of Social Media in Outdoor Experiences58:26 Mindset for Tackling Big Challenges01:03:46 Interview with Tara Dower: FKT on the Appalachian TrailSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside
