In this thought-provoking episode of Made for Impact, host Petia Kolibova Burns dives into the controversial world of human design—a system mixing astrology, I Ching, Kabbalah, and chakras—and why she no longer puts her trust in it. Once a tool she embraced in her personal and professional life, Petia now re-examines its origins and spiritual implications through the lens of her Christian faith. She candidly shares how she was first drawn in, what made human design so appealing, and the moment she began to question whether this system was truly serving her—or subtly pulling her away from God. What You'll Learn in This Episode The real origins of human design (and why its mystical roots matter). • How Petia went from skeptic to believer to Christ-led truth seeker. • Why human design, astrology, enneagram, and similar tools may feel like solutions—but leave a deeper spiritual void. • The danger of using external systems as “temporary fixes” instead of pursuing lasting fulfillment in God. • Questions every woman of faith should ask herself before relying on new age practices. Key Scriptures & Reflections The Bible's caution against idolatry and misplaced trust. • Why seeking identity and purpose outside of God can become a subtle form of bondage. Let's Continue the Conversation ✨ Have you used human design or similar tools? What was your experience? •

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/  Today I'm talking about what it really takes to stick to our dehoarding decisions - how to resist urges, tolerate discomfort, and actually follow through, even when it's tough. I'll share why holding our nerve matters, what gets in the way, and some strategies to help avoid falling back into old patterns. Plus, there's a practical top tip at the end to help boost your self-care this month. Holding Our Nerve Explanation of the gap between deciding to act and actually taking action when dehoarding Definition in Hoarding Context Persistence in sticking to healthy, productive decisions Managing urges to revert to hoarding behaviours Commitment to goals for sustainable progress Reference to Amelia Earhart's quote about decision-making and tenacity “Paper tigers” explanation – things we fear that seem big but aren't as powerful as they appear Application to Hoarding Behaviour Resisting Acquiring Items Examples: bargain shopping, free items, online shopping temptations Enduring Discomfort in Dehoarding Tolerating emotional and physical discomfort during the dehoarding process Maintaining Long-term Commitment Remembering reasons for setting goals in the first place Avoiding short-term gratification and honouring original decisions Hoarding as a Coping Mechanism Exploration of how and why hoarding behaviours develop and persist Acknowledging that they once served a purpose and understanding possible current motivations Strategies for Holding Our Nerve Breaking the Cycle Recognising urges and patterns Learning from successes and setbacks Decision-Making vs. Tenacity Differentiating between difficulty in deciding versus following through The importance of honouring previous decisions Reminders and Motivation Recalling the “why” behind goals (better living conditions, consequences, self-improvement) Using motivational tools (e.g., visual reminders, Pinterest boards) Compassion and Flexibility Allowing for Mistakes Emphasis on not seeking perfection, just consistent progress Adjusting Expectations Recognising that personal best varies from day to day Trusting the process, even during discomfort Building the “Dehoarding Muscle” Each successful decision builds strength and determination for future efforts Identifying and Addressing Triggers Internal Triggers Decision fatigue, emotional attachment, mental and physical exhaustion, anxiety or depression Self-doubt and “what if I need it?” thoughts External Triggers Specific shops, websites, sales, or social pressure from others Discouragement, overwhelm, enticing offers, or resistance from people uncomfortable with change Planning Around Triggers Identifying personal stumbling blocks and creating plans to avoid or counteract them Coping Tactics for Urges Acknowledgment & Self-Reflection Naming feelings and urges to reduce their power Recognising patterns and underlying needs (e.g., hunger, mood) Nervous System Regulation Using grounding techniques, calming objects, self-talk, and other anxiety-management tools Allowing oneself to feel discomfort without acting on it Dealing with “What If I Need It?” Thoughts Trusting future self to be resourceful Breaking down hypothetical worries and seeking alternatives Importance of Support Systems Building and Using Support Networks Therapists, friends, accountability groups (Zoom sessions), online communities Support as both emotional (crying, laughing) and practical (advice, checks on decisions) Loneliness and Variations in Support Recognition that not everyone has support, with encouragement to proactively seek help Mention of a related episode on loneliness Self-Compassion and Learning from Setbacks Self-forgiveness and Reflection Importance of forgiving oneself instead of engaging in self-punishment Analysing situations where nerve was lost to prevent future recurrences Practical Planning Strategies for managing triggers, such as only shopping with someone else or removing items quickly Links Podcast ep 196: Trusting our future selves to be resourceful with Dr Jan Eppingstall Podcast episode 174: How to feel grounded when we're overwhelmed or dysregulated using ventral vagal spaces and touchstones, with Dr Jan Eppingstall Podcast ep 49: Sitting with discomfort: distress tolerance and hoarding – How unconscious distress avoidance might be worsening your problems Podcast ep 190: What if we forgive ourselves, but now we know better, we do better?

In business and in life, sometimes things don't go as we planned. Sometimes, our plans are completely derailed. In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull share a recent experience where they ended up in the right place at the right time and discuss the importance of being able to trust the process.

It's everything else outside of business.” Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason & Sarah Hull (00:00) In business, things are always changing. Things might derail us, but that doesn't mean that it's going to has to be a worse outcome just because it didn't go the way that you wanted.   All right, we are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs.

We are on a mission to transform property management, business owners and their businesses. We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. now let's get into the show. OK, so we were up way too late last night.   And it wasn't for any really exciting reason. It was because of dogs. So. Do you want to tell the story? Yeah, sure. So you start last night, we were about to settle down and we were going to watch something on Netflix and my dog, my biggest dog, Parker, he is he's our pit bull. Well, he's our pure red pit bull. And he's kind of scratching and pawing at the couch.   telling Jason he wants something. So Jason goes over, pulls it out. And we have these, they're water buffalo horns. Natural, like real water buffalo horns that they chew on. And there was a, how big was it? Like this big? Yeah, I don't know. Maybe like two by three inches kind of a thing. So little last piece of it and Parker wanted it. I got up.   Went to the bathroom. I come out. It's in pieces on the floor. So I did not want him to eat that. So I said, no, no, no, give me that. And he did not want to give it to me. So I took the remaining pieces off of the floor and I figured I would bribe him with a treat. I was pretty sure he swallowed. And at least some of it was kind of dark. Yeah. So pretty sure he swallowed some of it.   And I went, okay, I don't wanna play this game. I've played this game several times. It's not fun. I'm just gonna induce vomiting and then we'll get it out of him and we'll go on with our night. So we do this mixture of hydrogen peroxide and I some vanilla ice cream.   No vomit. So I did another batch of that. No vomit. I did a third batch of that. No vomit. And now I'm starting to panic because it's been about what? 15 minutes at that point. Maybe 20. Maybe 20. And I'm going, I'm panicking. I'm going, I have never given a dog hydrogen peroxide and they didn't vomit. I don't understand what to do. So he had looked up online and he said, okay, well.   Walking I guess will help stimulate that so I went okay. So we walked him down to the end of the block. We came back. No vomit we got into the house as soon as we got into the house, then he vomited twice And some of the pieces had come out, but I was quite large. Yeah. Yeah, I know I don't think they would have passed through a system. So it was a good thing that we did that. Yeah, I know so then I I felt like what if there's more in there because I just don't I don't know   And I get, I get really nervous about that. So we were thinking that most of it kind of came out. I thought maybe there was a little bit left, but wasn't quite sure. Didn't want to induce vomiting again, especially after that much time had passed. It's, it's, it's not going to be good at that point. So we were sitting on the couch. We were kind of keeping an eye on him. He was drinking some water, but then he started kind of drooling.   and that's not a good sign, I went, okay, we're going to the vet. So we went to the emergency room vet. We got there around 11 o'clock.   Okay. Thinking they would get him right in because it's an emergency. Yeah. And they just had a crazy night at this place. Such a sad night for them. So we got there. We drove my Chevy Tahoe, not my cyber truck. Yeah. Because that's the vehicle we usually drive if we're putting the dogs in it, because, know, who knows, maybe the dogs scratch stuff or puke or whatever. So we drove the Tahoe and   We get there and they wouldn't see us. And there's kind of a timeline in Sarah's mind. Well, no, you look it It says pretty much about two hours from when it goes to the stomach into, I think it's called the pyloric valve. You can quote me on that. But then it goes into the intestine. If it goes into the intestine, we're F'd because it's not going to pass through the intestine. I can tell you that for sure.   And once it's in there, you can't get it. It's not like it can regurgitate back out into the stomach. It's in there, it's done. So now your option is surgery or death. Ask me how I know. Been there, done that. Yeah, you had a dog have this issue. Two dogs. Two. Two dogs eating things they shouldn't eat. Yeah. So I'm trying to make sure we can get, if there is something in there, I just want to check and see. Don't even know. Maybe there's something in there. Maybe there's not.   But if there's something in there, I want to get it before it gets into the intestine Yeah, so by the time we got there it already been at least what an hour and a half Yeah Since the original incident so we don't know if there's still something in him and we get there and then we're sitting in the waiting room and there's a Lot of stuff happening. I guess there's just a lot of people ahead of us to have some serious Issues with their pets and so we're waiting   Eventually I go up and you were freaking out. You're like, we're nearing the deadline. I'm counting down. I'm going, okay, we have 20 minutes left. So I go up and I just say, is there any way we can rush this along or is there another place we can go? And she hands me a sheet. Here's some other hospitals in the area. This one's 20 minutes away. It's good. This one's 30 minutes away. It's good. And I was like, my gosh, it's another 20 and 30 minutes. That puts us past the two hour mark. So I...   Explain this to you brought you the sheet like and you said we might as well just yeah go home So I said well at that point if they cannot get us in here and then we have to go somewhere else either way We're gonna miss the two-hour deadline. So at that point now, it's a gamble Okay, so if it's moving on to his intestine now, we just go okay We keep an eye on him and he's gonna be fine or we keep an eye on him and we come right back here when we need to so   We talked about it, we thought about it, and then we said, okay, let's just head home because if there's nothing they can do at this point, like we missed the window. So let's just head home. Okay. So the story gets kind of interesting from here. So we go out to the car, we get Parker in and I push the button to start the Tahoe and it sort of turns over, but it doesn't start. So the battery must be low.   like never has happened ever with this vehicle. And so we were stuck. We were stuck. Okay. Could not. Yeah. Couldn't start the vehicle. So forced to stay there, which actually back for jumper cables. Right. I'm digging around, figuring out where I'd hide, hit my jumper cables in this vehicle. He was pissed. He like hit the steering wheel.   Okay, apparently I got violent with the the Tahoe. He was mad. So get it. It was like 11 45 at night. I understand. Okay, so the story gets even more interesting. Well at this point. Well wait. So at this point I had said to Jason I said wait. my god. What if This is god telling us You are supposed to be here like you are exactly where you are supposed to be I thought maybe because this is weird. This is weird All right, so we're tell you the conclusion of this because it does seem like   some little bit of magic happened. So maybe God really did want to stay.

Back to the story. All right. So, so then I'm, find the jumper cables and I'm like, cool. I guess I was   and I was like, I don't even know if I have jumper cables, but I do. I had that planned. So from the beginning, I guess a long time ago, I had stashed them in a panel in the backside of the vehicle that had to pop off in plastic. And then I found them. All right, so I had the bag, I had the jumper cables, and then I'm like, I need to find somebody. And like, there's a bunch of cars, but only one was running and there was only one person outside, so I went up to it. I could tell they were pretty upset.   Like I'd seen them walking around. It's two ladies. Turns out one is the friend of the other and had driven her there in her car. And so I went up to the window and I was like, know, I'll let my jumper cables. She rolled down her window and said, hey, could you help us jump our car? Our car won't start. I could really use some help. And I'm thinking.   she's probably thinking I'm some weird creep or gonna do something or I don't know, like in middle of the night, like it's really, it's late and like, you know, but she was like, she said, yeah, I'd be, I'd be happy to help. My dog just died. And then this lady's coming out that works at this center and she's holding a little paper and she said, this lady is bringing me the prints that they took of my dog's paws.   right now. And I was like, my gosh, I am so sorry. Like this is like one of the most awful things ever. And I didn't, I didn't even know what I could say other than I'm so sorry. And she said, but she was willing to help out. So she drove her car over and next to ours and I hooked up the cables and tried getting this thing started. And it like, I think I charged it. Initially, I thought let's do it for like five minutes, then try it.   Then we waited, didn't work, waited another five, 10 minutes, tried again, still didn't work. Somewhere in the middle of trying all this, the same lady comes out and she's like holding her iPad and she's like, are you guys here for Parker? Are you still wanting to be seen? And I was like, well, I guess. And I said, do you want to? It's already been past that time. And Sarah was like, yeah, we might as well.   Yeah, so I explained to her the issue and she said well It might not hurt to have them looked at and she said it's not a hard and fast two-hour rule sometimes it's closer to two to four so you might still have some time and You know, do you want us to at least check him out and you know? Do an exam like, know, we can kind of feel around in the stomach. Maybe do an ultrasound or an x-ray I said, okay, let's get him in so I went brought Parker in and Jason stayed outside   Trying to jump the car. So this lady said, you know, I told her, you know, I could when I had got offered like asked for help, I had said, well, only, you know, I could give you a hug, you know, was the thing I could offer because she was so sad and I didn't know what to do. And she then told me I started talking with her. She told me that she was she just opened up.   I think she could tell I was probably a safe person to talk to. She just opened up and said, hey, I'm just really debating right now whether I should go see her, go see my dead dog. Like whether I should go see her, because I didn't see her. Like she went in and she passed away and I didn't see her. so I could tell, you know, if she's asking the question, there's probably, it's probably, yeah, you probably should. And I said, well,   I just was thinking, what does she think around and, you know, trying to be empathetic. And I was like, she's, why would she not want to? Well, I was like, are you concerned that if you go see your dog, that that's the image you'll have of her forever? And she said, yeah. And she starts crying. She said, yes. I said, you have a lifetime of experiences with this dog to remember, you know, with her to remember her by.   This will not be the defining thing, but I think if you don't go and get full closure on this and you know, there's going to be an emotional thing that just doesn't happen. You know, you need, you need to get that closure and that would be my, my guess, but this is for you to decide. And, I guess based on that conversation, she decided to go, to go, to go do it. So she.   like I'm gonna go do it and so she goes get in my car still her car still running I'm still trying to charge my car figure out well now I guess I'll just let it run for a while and I let it run for a good another 10 15 another 15 minutes at a timer still wouldn't start car just would not start it wouldn't turn over   So she goes in and then eventually she comes back out and she's like, they're making me wait. I think they're trying to get her presentable for me. And I said, well, it's probably a good thing. You know, but she's like, but now I am like, I'm thinking all about it and I'm stressed. And I have to wait. was hoping I'd just walk in and see her and be done with it. And I was like, yeah, I get that. And I guess you were inside with Parker and you had eventually she was.   came out and they were like, you can go in. She, she went in to go, go see, but I had asked her, like, do you mind me asking what happened? She said, my dog was in a car accident. A car hit my dog, not a car accident. My dog hit like I hit by the car and cause she gets out and thinks it's super fun to get out and had gotten out and she was feeling really guilty. Like it was her fault. And so she went in, I guess, to go see the dog and I was outside with the cars, but you had kind of, you were inside.   to share? Yeah well I was inside with Parker just kind of waiting so at this point they had already come and checked a few things preliminarily and then they were sending the doctor in and I think everybody in the building could hear that poor woman she was just absolutely crushed and heartbroken and just wailing and crying and I am not   one to cry and I'm sitting there I've got like tears coming down my face I'm going god this poor woman just because I've been there and I know what that feels like. So then the doctor ends up coming in and she's kind of checking him out and asking me some questions and the fact that it was a water buffalo horn was really confusing for everyone because it's not very common. So she's kind of feeling around on his stomach and she goes he has a full bladder.   She said, he might need a potty break. And she said, OK, and then I'm just going to check a couple things here, and then we're going to take him in the back. We'll do an ultrasound. I said, OK. So as she's doing her heart check on him, she said, hey, did anyone ever tell you that he has a heart murmur? And I said, no. And she said, OK, well, it's not anything serious right now. It's really not bad. But it is something to keep an eye on because.   it could be associated with something like heart disease or a heart failure. So there might be some underlying heart condition. It's you might want to talk to a cardiologist and just kind of have them check it out. I said, okay. So then she took Parker back and I was waiting for them to come back. She comes back at some point with him and she says, well, she said, okay, so here's what I think about the bone. I'm still going to stand by my original statement.   I would not recommend inducing vomiting again. You already did that. Some of the bones came out. She said, if there's anything else in there, I would not recommend inducing vomiting again. Sometimes if you do induce vomiting, then something might get stuck in the esophagus. It might scratch or tear the esophagus. Now you have a critical problem. So she said, I think you already did that. Don't worry about it. I would not do it again. I would not recommend us doing it again. She said, if it's a bone,   Their stomachs are just meant to digest that. Don't give him any sort of anti acid. Just let his stomach do its thing. And at some point it'll disintegrate and it'll pass normally. So I said, okay. And she said, I do however have some bad news. And I said, well, what is it? And she said, well, do you know when I was feeling him and I said, his bladder seems full. Well, that was not his bladder.   And she said, so he has a large mass located right behind his bladder. And she showed me the ultrasound image of it. And it's larger than a grapefruit right now. So it's pretty big. And she doesn't know what it is. She's not sure, you know, is it liquid? Is it some sort of cyst? Is it some sort of like tumor? We don't really know what it is.   She sent me a referral so that I can go and have them do an ultrasound and then have them kind of take a look at it. They of course recommended biopsy, which I'm not going to do. But she said, yeah, I would definitely have this checked out. And she said, I am so, so, so sorry to have to tell you this. But the way she was breaking it to me was almost like she was treating me like the woman who, yeah, who like, whose dog just passed away.   And I'm thinking, okay. So from her point of view, I understand why she was kind of reacting that way. I do understand why she thought I would react that way. But I think the way I feel about it is I don't think we're gonna go the typical normal route of let's go and have somebody poke it and rupture it and then.   release whatever it is out into his body to just float around and that'll kill him in like a year. And in the meantime, we're going to do all kinds of medication and cancer treatments and radiation and chemotherapy and all of the things that then will also kill you. We're not doing any of those things. But yeah, the point is she felt like it was really, really bad news and you felt like you're going to figure out a solution. Well, I felt like it was just a good thing that that was found.   We know because we wouldn't have known otherwise. How would I have ever known that? He's perfectly healthy. There's no it's not like, you know, there's any kind of warning signs. The one thing is he did lose some weight. So at some point that might have been a concern for me. Like, hey, I'm trying to get him to gain weight and he doesn't seem like he's gaining weight. Maybe something would have shown up on blood on a blood test at some point. But I just don't know that they would have.   Maybe eventually they would have found that. Yeah. But I just don't think like right off the bat, they would have found it. But it would have gone on a lot longer if there was an issue. So and we don't know what the issue is fully yet. That's still to be determined. however, yeah, that that that gal came out after viewing her dog. She was just I could tell a mess. So I I couldn't get the car to start. Didn't matter how long I was charging it. So I said.   Let me just unhook this and you just go, go do what you gotta do, go home and close their thing, their hood and let her leave. So there I am with this dead car. I don't know what's going on with Parker and you're in there and I'm so frustrated thinking, do I need to like get an Uber home, go get my cyber truck to come here and try and jump this car or try and get, like, am I gonna need to roadside assistance? So I'm trying to figure out how to get roadside assistance from our insurance and.   It's just, I'm trying to figure it out. And then eventually some other couple came out and they were like, I chatted with them a bit and they're like, yeah, we're here for another hour at least. Our dog's in surgery. It had gotten sliced open through its whole side somehow and they have no idea how it happened. And I'm like, that's crazy. They're like, yeah. And so I chatted with them for a bit and I said, well, could you help me jump my vehicle? And they had a, they had a,   Ford that was kind of similar in size to my Chevy and I thought maybe this one will have a little more juice somehow I don't know alternators only are adding a lecture, you know To on the on the meter there, you know to charge the battery, but I turned off all the everything I went away from it. So nothing was turning on we Charged it up. I tried starting once it didn't take but it sort of did something so I just left it charging a bit longer I said a longer timer   You eventually came out, but right before you came out, I tried, I was almost ready to submit the form to get roadside assistance to have them come out for the battery. And it was that or towing. Those are your two options. It's like, did you already try to jump it? If you did, they would only send towing. So I had to say no, like come out and help me jump it. And so I asked him if he could help me try one more time and.   He was really nice guy and they were stuck there for a while. So we just charged it for like 15, 20 minutes. And then you came out right after I had tested it and it started. And so now the car was ready. It was ready to go. And I'd already tried for like 20 minutes plus of charging before, maybe a half hour, trying to get this thing to work. Couldn't get it to start. And now it started. What's weird is that the car was having more issues than   like with the second thing, like things weren't turning on the second vehicle I was charging it off of than the first. So I was really surprised, but it just started. And then you came out and the car was ready. And so I really kind of feel like maybe you were right. Maybe God was like, you need to be kind of a little angel to this lady that is struggling. I gave her a hug, like I chatted with her a bit, told her she should go see her dog.   She was able to have some big sounds like cathartic sort of release in there. And which, you know, that would have been just stuck inside her, you know, and there always would have been this question of doubt, like what, what, you know, she wouldn't have gotten maybe that closure. And then we never would have found out if there was an issue with Parker, if we hadn't, if the car had worked, we just would have went home. We never would have known that he had a couple of health issues as one of which might be really serious. And we would have just never known and never.   dealt with it probably as effectively as we're able to now. So God works in mysterious ways, I guess. so moral of story is what? Our plan for the evening was we were gonna sit down and watch a show on Netflix. That was what we were gonna do. were gonna do that. Little cuddling, little Netflix and watching. had in mind for us. He's like, no, no, we need you at the Central Texas Emergency Veterinary Clinic.   Their name is so long. I don't know but yeah, no, no, we need you to be right here. So I'm gonna just make things happen to get you there and it's so funny because we we had decided to leave Yeah, we were done. I was like, okay. Well, there's no point in sitting here. I Don't want to sit here for two hours To find out if we have a problem where if we have a problem, we'll just come back   but I don't need to be here in the meantime. So let's just go. And if he has a problem, we will come back. And if he's fine, then great, we'll at least be home. And then the card ends, sorry. So I think what you plan for is not always what you get, but I think what you get is exactly what you need. And sometimes, know, plans may change. Our original plan, the thing that we want doesn't happen, but.   Sometimes there's a better outcome. finding out, is it worth losing a little sleep to find out that a dog that we really love and care about has maybe a potentially serious health issue that we can now nip in the bud and take care of early on? Absolutely. There's no other scenario in which we would have just gone and gotten this checked or that they would have been feeling this pit bull's body to find this out.   It was only because he had eaten that crazy bone that we were and Sarah was nervous enough about it that we went and got got him there and it like it was this whole cascade of magical events to make sure that this happened and so yeah, so it's really mind-blowing how everything kind of can work out and Yeah, the car drove home just fine. I probably was startup fine right now. I don't know. I probably should charge the battery a little bit more but   Yeah, but everything in the end worked out. We're a little tired. But and I think this is a good lesson and we wanted to share because this is real for us is what happened. And you you care about pets like family. You know, a lot of times it's not the business stuff that derails us. It's everything else outside of business. That's one lesson you can take away from it. Like, you know, making sure that your family's good, including pets are taken care of, getting those things checked out.   And then also just trusting that, you know, there's there's I believe and trust that there's a higher power that's watching out for you that has a plan. And if nothing else, it could just be those of you that aren't into that. It could be that you are intuitive enough and magical enough and a creator enough that based on quantum physics or whatever you're into that, you know, things get taken care of and positive outcomes come if you believe in.   in that sort of thing. so I think that's the thing is, you know, In business, things are always changing. Things might derail us, but that doesn't mean that it's going to has to be a worse outcome just because it didn't go the way that you wanted.   That's my two cents. You have anything, to add?   Okay, I'm tired. Can we go? We're gonna we're gonna wrap this up and go take it easy. I'm maybe gonna go take a nap. Yeah. When did we go to bed? Like take a nap. o'clock. Yeah. Take a nap right here. He's gonna nap right here. All right. So hopefully this was beneficial to see a little bit of flavor of our life. I don't know. It's not super property management oriented today, but   If you have ever felt stagnant or stuck in your business or you just don't feel like you're growing big enough, my guess is you don't have big enough goals.

The Rams are in for a really good test this weekend vs. the Tennessee Titans, in Tennessee. Jeffrey Simmons left a really bad taste in our mouths back in 2021 and based on how banged up our interior offensive lineman already are, we could be in for a tough afternoon. The Rams, led by Sean McVay and Matthew Stafford, are always poised to put together a comprehensive game plan - and one is certainly going to be needed in this matchup. The Rams' secondary is also going to be frequently tested by the young, promising arm of Cam Ward. The Rams are 5.5pt favorites, but Matthew Stafford has NEVER beaten the Titans. Will that change this weekend? We think so.

Trust is foundational in all healthy relationships. That certainly includes relationships between leaders and followers. Let's delve into strategies leaders at all levels can use to build trust.

Ever feel like you're doing everything right…and STILL not getting the results you want? I'm talkin' late nights. Early mornings. Grinding harder. Stacking to-do lists like trophies. And yet…the outcomes? Crickets. If you're anything like me — or the elite athletes and executives I help — you've been trained to fix that by doing what you've always done: Push. Even. Harder. Why? Because that's what we were taught as athletes… Perform. Produce. PROVE your worth. But what if I told you striving might be your default...but it's TRUST that gives you your real performance upgrade? The real truth: constantly grinding isn't grit — it's a coping mechanism. And all that stress you're pushing through? It's hijacking your brain, killing your clarity, and quietly sabotaging your peak state. That's why this week's 5-Minute Drill on the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show is one you can't afford to miss.  In this episode, you'll hear: Why working harder when you're already maxed out could be the very thing blocking your breakthrough The neuroscience behind how performance pressure hijacks your brain and kills clarity A biblical strategy to shift from striving to trusting — without sacrificing your drive How Ezekiel's obedience in a valley of dry bones reveals the secret to supernatural momentum A 3-step Drill to reset when your grind isn't producing results How grace-based effort becomes your competitive edge when rooted in trust, not hustle Key Quotes “This Drill isn't about doing nothing…it's about doing the right thing — partnering with God's power instead of forcing results in your own power.” - J.R. “Working even harder when you're already busting your tail often has diminishing returns…it often leads to worse results — because the stress in your system is hijacking your brain.” - J.R. “God's grace doesn't eliminate your discipline. It energizes it with more of HIS power.” - J.R. “Stop carrying what only God was built to hold.” - J.R.

But as Phillip Swan, co-founder of Iridius, points out—most of these flashy prototypes never make it into production. Why? Because enterprises can't afford to gamble with compliance, security, and governance.That's the problem Iridius was built to solve. In our thinkfuture conversation, Phillip explains how their platform provides a new blueprint for enterprise AI—one that bakes in compliance and scalability from the start. Instead of building “vibe code” that breaks under real-world pressure, Iridius helps companies move from concept to production-ready AI in hours or days, not months.We covered:Why most enterprise AI stays stuck in R&DHow compliance and governance can be automated without slowing innovationThe risks of unchecked AI—and the importance of human oversightHow industries and job markets will change as automation acceleratesWhy responsible AI isn't a drag on speed, but the key to scaling itPhillip also shared his perspective on the future: AI will disrupt traditional industries, but it will also create entirely new opportunities—if we approach it with foresight and responsibility.For enterprises, innovators, and anyone wondering how to deploy AI without the risks, this episode offers both caution and hope.

They discuss the importance of beginning with self-awareness, particularly through the lens of physicality and breath, and how this practice informs their work and interactions with the world. The conversation also delves into the role of grief in political life, the challenges of changing perspectives in public discourse, and the significance of community and connection in fostering energy and momentum for change.Chapters* Introduction and Background* Beginning with the Body and Breath* Navigating Pain and Fatigue* Spirituality and Faith Journey* Research and Media Consumption* Finding One's Voice in Media* Reflections on Racial Identity* Changing Perspectives in Public Discourse* The Role of Grief in Political Life* Energy and Momentum in Community* Closing Thoughts and PracticesKeywordsconversation, spirituality, media, grief, identity, political discourse, personal growth, self-awareness, community, healingTakeaways to Contemplate* Beginning with the body and breath is essential for self-awareness.* Pain and fatigue can be seen as companions rather than obstacles.* Flexibility in belief systems can lead to deeper understanding.* Policy cannot solve every issue; some questions remain unanswerable.* Trusting one's own voice is crucial in media consumption.* Grief is a manifestation of love and connection.Links GaloreRead Beth's Substack, Thoughts & Prayers.

If you've ever wondered why smart, self-aware women stay in bad relationships—or why it's so hard to move on—you're going to want to listen to this one. Heather Melville (Counselor Endotype) is a toxic relationship recovery coach with the receipts: she left an abusive 8-year relationship, walked away from a successful engineering career, and now helps other women rebuild lives they actually love. In this episode, we dig into why healing after toxicity isn't about “finding the next one”—it's about reconnecting to yourself, learning to trust your intuition, and forgiving yourself for what you didn't know then. We also talk about the not-so-funny problem of being a coach with a soft brand voice that doesn't match your bold, hilarious truth. Heather now lives full-time in a converted shuttle bus with her fiancé, running workshops from the road and building a business that aligns with her real voice—one that's smart, sarcastic, and deeply committed to helping women stop fixing everyone else and finally choose themselves. Her background in engineering and lighting design makes her story even more compelling: this is a coach who rebuilt every part of her life—from the ground up. ➤ Learn more or work with Heather: https://healthyrelationships.info ➤ Follow her workshops on Eventbrite under “Healthy Relationships” ➤ Take the Endotype Quiz at https://endotype.com ➤ Book a Connection and Direction call: https://ravingcoaches.com/c&d

In this episode of Your Own Magic, I explore a feeling so many of us carry quietly: the pressure of being “behind.” Behind on career, on love, on milestones that the world tells us should have happened by now.Together, we'll unravel the myth of the linear timeline and redefine what success and milestones really mean. From celebrating the quiet achievements that rarely get applause, to noticing the sacred timing that doesn't match anyone else's calendar, this conversation is a reminder that you are not late... you are right on time for you.And because I always love a cosmic touch, I close with reflections on the moon as a mirror for our lives. Just like her phases (new, waxing, full, waning) our own cycles of rest and growth are equally valid, equally necessary.If you've ever felt like you're “off schedule,” this is your invitation to breathe, soften, and trust the rhythm of your own becoming.✨RAQUELLE + YOMyourownmagic.comig @raquellemantrafb group your own magicSPONSORS' SPECIAL OFFERS hereSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/your-own-magic/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Consider today a masterclass on biohacking for a woman. For so long the biohacking space or other word known as health optimization has been based on men's studies and data. Although thankfully it's coming to the surface that women aren't biochemically the same as men and we need to address things differently, especially in our reproductive years. My guest today has been in this space since the early days of biohacking and since then has not only learned how women need to approach things differently, but also has trained thousands of other women to do the same.  Kristin Weitzel is a health and high performance maven, with expertise across a broad range of health topics and Founder or WELLPOWER, SHERPA Breath & Cold. She is a biohacking proponent, certified fitness trainer, podcast host, breathwork guide, ice bath instructor, and nutritionist with a focus on guiding people to optimal health.  During her 15 years as a brand strategist and global marketer for Fortune 500 brands, Kristin sought opportunities to work with some of the top minds and mentors across the wellness world. She applied these learnings to her own weight management, energy, and lifestyle challenges, and continues to research and share them with her audience. She ultimately left behind her successful corporate career to pursue her peak expression: Leading others to break out of their comfort zones and rise into optimal wellbeing. In this episode we talk about: The Difference in a women's approach in biohacking  Fasting for women Why we need to eat more protein Common problems women are having and why Cycle syncing and fitness Cold exposure and breath Trusting your intuition How to Optimize your sleep and more… For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/kristin-weitzel/ Watch episode on YouTube Episode mentions:  BIOptimzers Magnesium Breakthrough : Discount code: ERICAL Function Health Get immediate access and $100 off: Code ELIPPYNELSON10 Find our guest at: Kristin Weitzel: Website, Instagram Wellpower podcast Coaching with Kristin Follow me on Social Media: Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit YouTube PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/

In this episode, Kehla sits down with Dr. Karen Curry Parker for a powerful conversation on moving beyond the rigidity of “just follow strategy & authority.” Together, they explore the collective overwhelm so many are experiencing, why entrepreneurs feel frozen in uncertainty, and how Human Design offers a prescription for rebuilding self-trust. Karen shares how the body is mapped through the Human Design chart—linking gates and centers to specific somatic signals, including Gate 26's connection with trauma—and why strategy & authority are meant as tools for reconnection, not lifelong rules. The two also unpack radical self-responsibility, the pitfalls of labels, and the freedom that comes when decisions are made from an embodied place of choice and sovereignty. ✨ Listeners Will Learn:

Doubting yourself can drain more energy than the actual work in front of you.  Second guessing every choice, replaying what you said, and analyzing whether it was right or wrong is exhausting.  The more time you spend in your head, the less time you spend moving forward. Self-trust is not something you're either born with or without.  It's something you build through practice, reflection, and action. And if you've been in a pattern of overthinking, the good news is you can shift it.

Who we surround ourselves with has the power to influence our faith — not just in theory, but in how we live it out daily. In this episode, we unpack what it means to see grace modeled in community, to be stretched in our thoughts, beliefs, and lifestyle, and to grow through trust.We ask: What does it really mean to be equipped as a believer? How do we continue to pour out without running dry — and where do Sabbath rest and hardship fit into that journey?We explore three key areas of trust:— Trusting in God's grace— Trusting that His grace will meet us as we step out— Trusting the grace God has given others — even when it feels vulnerableIf you've ever sensed a unique grace on your life and wondered what it looks like to develop and walk it out intentionally, this conversation is for you.

There comes a moment on every healing journey when the push no longer works - when the only way forward is through stillness, surrender, and deep trust. In this episode, we explore the sacred pause—the space between endings and beginnings, actions and inaction, knowing and not knowing. I will share insights on what it mean to really surrender without giving up, how to tell when you're being asked to release control, and how to trust the timing of your life - even when clarity hasn't yet arrived. If you're feeling stuck, uncertain or exhausted from trying to force progress, this episode is your reminder:"Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is to stop, soften, and trust the unfolding. "In this episode:- What is the sacred art of surrender and why is it necessary right now- What it means to create space for alignment - Sometimes delays are not denial- The importance of mindset during these periods- Gratitude over victim consciousness- Nervous system regulation and safety- Presence, grounding, flow, peace are the energy to return to in this phase- Surrendering is NOT giving up, or failing Connect with me:Instagram: @Pam_RoccaTik Tok: @Pam_RoccaWebsite: www.pamrocca.comWork with me:Channeling Session:https://calendly.com/divinehealth/60-minute-intuitive-channeling-sessionIntuitive Oracle Reading: https://calendly.com/divinehealth/60-minute-intuitive-oracle-card-readingIntuitive Reiki SessionIn-person:https://calendly.com/divinehealth/in-person-intuitive-reiki-healing-session-60-minsEnergy Work Sessions - Energy Healing: https://calendly.com/divinehealth/energy-healing-sessionThe Show's Sponsor - Vellum Health - The Art of Microdosing.My favourite blend is Glow.

For the British artist Holly Stevenson clay, memory and psychoanalysis intertwine in hauntingly playful sculptures. This conversation traces Holly's extraordinary journey—from her Russian grandmother's concentration camp survival and the inspiration a Chilean refugee provided, to set design in Rome and motherhood, all the way to her groundbreaking residency at the Freud Museum. Discover how Holly's fiercely independent spirit, and fascination with what hides in plain sight have shaped her visceral, intimate works. KEY TAKEAWAYS Holly´s work is heavily influenced by psychoanalysis, both in subject matter and in approach. Holly finds beauty and meaning in everyday materials like clay, wood, paper, and even bed sheets. The creative path is rarely linear, but it can be deeply coherent if we learn to trust our instincts and follow the thread of our own obsessions. BEST MOMENTS “Holly makes the invisible visible - emotionally, materially and economically.” “I wanted to see something or hear something affirmative. But it's not about that, is it? It's about process. It's about accumulation. It's about one mark plus one mark, plus three marks plus 5000 marks, makes a drawing.” “Clay, like life, demands presence and patience. It cracks, resists, warps and still invites you back.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.holly-stevenson.co.uk https://www.instagram.com/holly__stevenson PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

In Esther 7, the story reaches its climax: Esther speaks, Haman panics, and their fates are reversed. But behind the narrative lies a deeper question—who truly decides who lives and who dies? To answer this, we must consider the hidden ways of God's kingdom and the unexpected power of the cross.

Nicholas Triolo is a writer, endurance athlete, and educator whose life and work sit at the crossroads of ecology, activism, and storytelling. For years, he's been exploring what happens when we stop charging toward the summit and start paying attention to the circuitous paths that wind around it. His new book, "The Way Around: A Field Guide to Going Nowhere," is the culmination of that exploration — a lyrical, wide-ranging meditation on movement, place, and the art of staying present. In the book, Nick traces a series of pilgrimages: circling a sacred mountain in Tibet, exploring a culturally significant northern California hiking tradition, and walking the rim of one of Montana's most infamous superfund sites. Each journey reveals something deeper — about endurance and restraint, about intimacy with landscapes and with ourselves, and about the courage to face environmental and cultural shadows without turning away. The book weaves together memoir, travel writing, and ecological inquiry, and in doing so, it asks us to reconsider how we measure meaning: not by miles logged or summits bagged, but by the depth of our attention and the generosity of our presence. In this conversation, Nick and I dig into the ideas behind the book — the practice of circumambulation, the pitfalls of “summit fever,” and the possibility of finding beauty even in places scarred by extraction. We also talk about the creative process: how to find your authentic voice in a world full of (good and bad) influences, how to write with both intimacy and respect, and how stories can become tools for resilience and re-enchantment. If you've ever sensed that the most interesting part of a long run, a wilderness trip, or a creative endeavor is what happens beneath the surface, this is a conversation for you. Nick has a gift for showing us how going “nowhere” can sometimes bring us closer to where we most need to be. Check out the episode notes for links to everything.

Do you ever struggle with FOMO—the fear of missing out? In this devotional, Hannah Benson reflects on Psalm 16:6 and reminds us that God has set boundaries for our lives with purpose and intention. While it’s tempting to compare our blessings with others, God calls us to trust His unique plan and timing. Instead of chasing every opportunity or envying someone else’s path, we can rest in the truth that we will never miss out on what God has for us when we walk in His will. ✨ Highlights How Psalm 16:6 teaches us to embrace the “pleasant places” God has chosen for us Why comparison and jealousy steal joy and distract us from God’s plan Trusting that God’s timing and blessings are uniquely tailored for your life A reminder to celebrate answered prayers instead of chasing what’s next Encouragement to surrender control and find contentment where God has placed you

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/  This episode, I'm joined by Dr Jan Eppingstall to talk about why so many of us who hoard struggle to trust our future selves to cope without keeping everything “just in case.” We get into how doubts about our own resourcefulness and fears about scarcity keep us stuck, and share practical ways to build confidence in our ability to handle whatever comes next. If you've ever worried you won't manage without every single spare part or backup item, this conversation's for you. Trusting Our Future Selves to Be Resourceful The psychological struggle of believing in one's ability to cope without keeping everything Personal anecdotes from the host about surprise resourcefulness Exploration of cognitive distortions surrounding trust in future adaptability Resourcefulness in Hoarding Behaviour Contradiction: Resourceful justifications for keeping items vs. fear of not being resourceful if they're discarded The role of loss aversion and catastrophic scarcity thinking Imagining multiple uses for broken items versus inability to visualise coping without them The ‘Just in Case' Myth Reading and analysis of Ru Kotryna's Instagram post on ‘just in case' keeping Discussion of how this reflects distrust in future self Emotional impacts: fear of change, sufficiency, and facing the future without backup How Distrust in Future Selves Manifests in Hoarding ‘Insurance hoarding' and duplicate/back-up keeping Information hoarding for fear of forgetting needed details Emotional insecurity and sense of powerlessness Host's personal examples (nature as a self-soothing tool and fear of its impermanence) Navigating Ephemerality and Change Conversation about the fleeting nature of things and the difficulty in accepting impermanence Reflection on attempts to freeze time by hoarding Behaviours and Thoughts Stemming from Lack of Self-Trust Executive function issues (planning, organisation, working memory) Trauma and past experiences of genuine scarcity Shame and immediate anxiety-reduction through keeping Avoidance and ‘comfort objects' as safety strategies Psychological Mechanisms Behind ‘I Don't Trust Future Me' Discontinuity between current and future self Impact of ADHD and perimenopause on executive functioning and time perception Cognitive gaps between imagining needs and recalling/locating stored things Irony of ‘preparedness' leading to greater unpreparedness Building Trust in Future Resourcefulness The value of journalling resourceful moments Small experiments: let go of duplicates and record how needs are met afterward Reviewing past examples of having coped or improvised successfully Consumerism and the Illusion of Solutions Attraction to gadgets and solutions for perceived problems The sunk cost fallacy and struggles to let go Owning up to aspirational or impulse purchases and being flexible in letting go if they don't work Scarcity Thinking and Its Long-Term Effects Personal stories of genuine scarcity and the enduring fear it creates How fear of not having enough directs attention to objects as solutions, rather than inner resourcefulness Difficulty breaking the object-focused habit even after circumstances change Breaking the Pattern: Psychological Approaches in Therapy Building evidence of existing skills and resourcefulness Addressing deeper self-worth issues and messages from childhood The importance of social connections, seeking help, and curiosity The Power and Pitfall of Backup Systems Possessions as emotional and practical backup Drawback: Items often become inaccessible or forgotten The paradox of keeping as “preparation” that often fails in practice due to volume and executive dysfunction Strengthening Connection with Future Self Using ACT techniques and self-compassion Treating your future self like a friend and planning for their needs Internal monologues about preparing spaces and making life easier for future-you Alternative Pathways to Security and Preparedness Community and social resource sharing (borrowing, lending among friends/family) Developing adaptability, self-confidence, and skills rather than accumulating more items Experimenting with minimalism and embracing uncertainty Actionable Steps for Building Trust in Resourcefulness Saying “I'll figure it out when I need to” Experimenting with running out of non-critical supplies Documenting and reflecting on resourceful problem-solving Letting go of low-risk items and noticing outcomes The reminder that listeners have survived all past problems resourcefully Encouragement to recognise and trust personal growth and capabilities Emphasis on learning, adaptability, and present-focused

Today's devotion is written by Sarah Zentner.

Fifteen years ago, I was in crisis.  My marriage was ending, my health was unraveling, and my corporate career felt like a soul-deadening trap.  From the outside though, my life looked fine—but inside, I knew something was deeply missing. Everything changed the moment a coach asked me one simple question that shook my entire world.  In this week's solo episode, I share the exact question, the before-and-after of my transformation, and how the power of coaching can shift your entire life. That question cracked open the doorway to my Higher Self and set me on a path I never could have imagined—becoming a coach myself, teaching at Georgetown University, and helping hundreds step into their soul's deepest calling. If your soul is whispering that it's time for something more, maybe this is your sign. I also share about Cohort (lucky) 13 of the Intuitive Life Designer® Coach Academy—a certification program that is so much more than training. It's a portal into your highest self, your intuition, and your purpose,✨ May you always have the courage to follow your innermost divine guidance — wherever it leads.   Takeaways The question that changed my life was pivotal. Living a life that's just 'fine' is not enough. Abundance comes in many forms, not just financial. A spiritually transformative experience can shift your perspective. You can't unknow what you know about your life. The power of questions can lead to profound insights. Trusting your intuition is essential for personal growth. Embracing change can lead to new beginnings. Appreciation can transform your current situation. Your higher self guides you towards your true path.   About Your Host, Julie Reisler Join Julie Reisler weekly, podcast host, intuitive coach, author, and multi-time TEDx speaker, each week to learn how to access your spiritual gifts and inner guidance to be your You-est You® and achieve greater inner peace, spiritual connection, happiness, and abundance.
