What if your endurance journey didn't start in your teens… but in your late 40s? In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with Hilary Topper, who began endurance training at 48, started training for triathlons at 53, and built her "why" around one simple mission: to become the best version of herself. Hilary shares the real behind-the-scenes of starting "later," learning new skills from scratch, and building the discipline to show up—especially when it means a 4:00 AM alarm and doing hard things before most people are awake. We also celebrate Hilary's newest project: her recently launched fourth book, Unlocking the Triathlon: The Beginner's Guide to Competing in a Triathlon—Anyone Can Tri, published by Meyer & Meyer Sport. In this episode, you'll hear: Why Hilary started endurance training later in life—and what changed everything for her Whether she was an athlete earlier in life (and how that shaped her comeback story) How hard it was to learn how to swim (and what helped her finally "get it") How 4:00 AM became a habit—without relying on motivation What it really takes to build consistency, confidence, and identity as a triathlete—at any age Connect with Hilary Instagram: @hilarytopper Website: ATriathletesDiary.com

What if understanding how we remember could influence what we choose to remember? Memory is more than just a mental archive of the past; it is a dynamic process that shapes the present and the future. Understanding how we remember-or fail to recall-can have a significant impact on how we choose to preserve and prioritize our experiences. Exploring the science of memory can help us not only understand why certain moments remain with us, but can also help us enhance our ability to remember important events. Charan Ranganath, a leading expert in cognitive neuroscience, shares how the science of memory can help us focus on what truly matters in our lives and improve our ability to retain meaningful experiences. Through his book, Why We Remember: Unlocking Memory's Power to Hold on to What Matters, he discusses how memories shape our lives and how we can harness this understanding to preserve the moments that matter most.  In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius is joined by Charan Ranganath to talk about the essence of memory and its impact on our lives. This conversation will also reveal how we can optimize our memory to focus on the most important things and events, from managing our digital lives to embracing curiosity.  Topics include: Charan discusses the imperfections of memory The connection between memory and emotion Charan debunks the myth of photographic memory The brain's overlap between memory and imagination How social interactions can shape memory accuracy The role of intention in strengthening memory Memory as a reconstructed experience Reframing memories for personal growth Enhancing presence and focus by eliminating distractions And other topics… Connect with Charan: Website: https://charanranganath.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charan-ranganath-1a1aa41bb  Twitter: https://twitter.com/charanranganath/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thememorydoc/  Book: https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Remember-Unlocking-Memorys-ebook/dp/B0C5VBNG4Y  Connect with Darius: Website: https://therealdarius.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/ YouTube: https://therealdarius.com/youtube Book: The Core Value Equation https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 Write a review for The Greatness Machine using this link: https://ratethispodcast.com/spreadinggreatness.

With the depth of an ancient sage and the directness of a loving guide, she empowers individuals to shed the burdens of their past, reclaim their authentic power, and embark on a transformative journey towards emotional wellness and spiritual liberation. Her insights don't just touch the soul; they ignite it.Takeaways:The True Meaning of Forgiveness: Forgiveness is not primarily about absolving others, but a deeply personal journey of forgiving oneself for the ways one has held onto resentments or allowed past experiences to define present excuses.Moving On Requires Unpacking the "Why": To truly move on from past hurts, one must first unpack, explore, and investigate the genuine root of their emotions, rather than attributing them simply to an external event.Spiritual Hygiene for Inner Peace: Cultivating spiritual hygiene involves cleansing the mind and opening the heart by actively practicing stillness and breathwork, essential practices often neglected in a world driven by constant doing.Sound Bytes:"Serving God, that's it, because it serves God. It serves God for me to heal. It serves God for me to support. It serves God for me to fall down and get up. It just serves God. That's my because.""The real forgiveness work is about yourself, but because the universe is so merciful and graceful, it gives us the opportunity to forgive others hoping that along the way we will bump into the truth and forgive ourselves.""You want love and happiness? Don't do the things that don't make you feel loving or happy."Connect & Discover Iyanla:Website: iyanla.com/Facebook: @DrIyanlaVanzantInstagram: @iyanlavanzantYouTube: @IyanlaVanzantTikTok: @iyanlavanzantBook: Spiritual Hygiene

Memorable Quotes:

“Something inside me has broken, and I cannot seem to stop the Waters of my Love Song.”  These are the words of my beautiful guest this week, Dr. Loddie Foose, eloquently expressing her experience of the creative process. Dr. Loddie is a poet and storyteller whose work bridges imagination, inner healing, and grounded leadership. She is the creator of Soul Riders: Storybooks for Your Inner Child, a first-of-its-kind illustrated fiction series designed to invite adult readers into transformative self-discovery through narrative and reflective exploration. On this week's guest episode Loddie and I have a delightful time giggling and enjoying a beautiful conversation around the power of transforming trauma and pain into words of joy and inspiration. Loddie speaks on how story can be a healing tool; why narrative, metaphor, and imagination provide a safe, embodied pathway to inner truth and integration—especially for adults. She also shares her means of reconnecting with the inner child. How restoring and healing connection to our inner child rebuilds self-trust, emotional resilience, and a felt sense of permission to live and lead authentically. And of course I loved discussing using inner healing to gain outer leadership. How inner reconnection translates into women advocating for themselves, setting boundaries, and claiming their worth in the world.Bio:Alongside her soul-inspired writing journey, Dr. Loddie Foose continues her work as a global leader in strategy and business, blending strategic insight with rigorous analytical training (PhD and postdoctoral studies in chemical engineering) and a deep commitment to human flourishing. She is founder of DocDocFoose Business Consulting and Know Your Worth, a leadership development platform for women, and serves as President of The Imagine Fund, a nonprofit advancing equity in gender, health, education, and food access.Links:https://www.docdocfoose.com/companieshttps://www.know-your-worth.net/https://www.know-your-worth.net/imagine-fund

How important are relationships and the feeling of being loved to human happiness? How have the fields of happiness studies and relationship studies converged?  Sonja Lyubomirsky is a professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside. She is also the author or co-author of the books How to Feel Loved: The Five Mindsets That Get You More of What Matters Most, The How of Happiness: A New Approach to Getting the Life You Want, and The Myths of Happiness: What Should Make You Happy, but Doesn't, What Shouldn't Make You Happy, but Does. Greg and Sonja discuss her shift from happiness research to her co-authored book with Harry Reis, How to Feel Loved. Sonja explains that many happiness interventions (gratitude letters, kindness practices, and variations like texting gratitude vs. social media posting vs. private writing) work largely because they increase feelings of love and connection They also discuss why listening is difficult, with Sonja sharing her experience in a Tel Aviv listening workshop, and the need for compassion and a growth mindset. Other themes include the Michelangelo effect (helping others become who they aspire to be), balancing sharing and listening (avoiding monologues or interrogations), appropriate vulnerability and gradual self-disclosure, and the “multiplicity” mindset of seeing people as complex quilts of good and bad traits to reduce harsh judgment.  The episode also considers whether people can feel loved without being loved, including AI companions that can mimic excellent listening but lack a genuine open heart, and the risk that some people may substitute simulated relationships for real ones.  *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: What's the distinction between being loved and feeling loved? 07:42: A lot of us are loved, but we do not feel loved. So we might have, we might know that our partner loves us or child, or a family member or friend or colleague. But we do not really feel loved. And when you think about it, feeling loved is what really matters even more, right? Because if, you know, if you love me, but I do not feel loved by you, it is almost like you do not love me, right? Like, because I am not really sensing that, and so feeling loved is really important. That is what really matters to happiness. The key to feeling loved is really to be known and to know the other 10:16: The key to feeling loved is really to be known and to know the other, and we get known by taking the wall down a little bit. And I get to know you if I help you take your wall down. How do I help you take your wall down? By showing curiosity. Then hopefully you will start to open up a little bit. I show even more curiosity. I ask you questions and I l truly listen, not really just try to fix it or help you or tell my own story. I just listen to learn. The first step to feel more loved 09:11: If I want to feel more loved, the first step, which may sound counterintuitive, is to help the other person feel loved first. You go first. I go first. The first step is to show genuine curiosity in the other person, in their inner life and the details of their day, their dreams, goals, values, fears. We all want that. We want to be seen, we want to be heard, and we do not get genuine curiosity very often. When was the last time you remember telling a story about yourself and the other person was so curious they could not wait for you to finish the sentence? It is rare. When it happens, it is priceless. That is such a gift to someone, to show authentic curiosity in them. It has to be authentic because you cannot fake it. That is the first step. You help the person be seen by showing curiosity in them, and that helps them open up more. Real connection requires both listening and sharing 18:48: If you only share, it is a monologue. You are spouting off. If you only listen, then it is an interview. It is an interrogation sometimes. You really need to do both. They go together. That is where the emotional intelligence comes in. Because when you are sharing, the entire time you are sharing, and we all know people who do not do this, they go off and they seem to not see any cues that the other person is not interested in continuing the story.

In this Bible study, we explore the powerful final chapter of Isaiah and the transition into the book of Jeremiah. Isaiah 66 introduces one of the most sobering images in Scripture: “where the worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.” This Hebrew idiom, later used by Jesus in the New Testament, points to the reality of eternal judgment and the seriousness of rejecting God. The imagery comes from the Valley of Gehenna outside Jerusalem, a place associated with continual burning and decay. Jesus referenced this same imagery in Mark 9 to warn about the eternal consequences of sin and the urgency of removing anything that keeps us from faith in Him. From there, the study moves into Jeremiah 2:13 and the powerful metaphor of “broken cisterns.” God describes Israel abandoning Him, the fountain of living water, and digging their own broken reservoirs that cannot hold water.

In this Bible study, we explore the powerful final chapter of Isaiah and the transition into the book of Jeremiah. Isaiah 66 introduces one of the most sobering images in Scripture: "where the worm does not die and the fire is not quenched." This Hebrew idiom, later used by Jesus in the New Testament, points to the reality of eternal judgment and the seriousness of rejecting God. The imagery comes from the Valley of Gehenna outside Jerusalem, a place associated with continual burning and decay. Jesus referenced this same imagery in Mark 9 to warn about the eternal consequences of sin and the urgency of removing anything that keeps us from faith in Him. From there, the study moves into Jeremiah 2:13 and the powerful metaphor of "broken cisterns." God describes Israel abandoning Him, the fountain of living water, and digging their own broken reservoirs that cannot hold water. This vivid picture illustrates humanity's tendency to seek life, fulfillment, and security in things other than God. Throughout the teaching, we examine how these ancient warnings still apply today. People continue to build modern "cisterns" in money, power, relationships, pleasure, and self-reliance, yet only Christ offers the true living water that satisfies the soul. Jesus later stands in the temple and declares, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink." The invitation remains the same today: stop trusting in broken cisterns and come to the source of living water.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Chad Woolner is a chiropractic physician who brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in utilizing advanced technologies to enhance patient care and wellness, including the use of laser and light-based therapies. Dr. Woolner has established himself as a credible voice in chiropractic care and is widely recognized for his expertise in integrating innovative treatments. Dr. Andrew Wells is an accomplished expert in natural health solutions, with a strong focus on the synergy between technology and healthcare. He collaborates closely with Dr. Woolner in providing insights into effective health practices, including weight loss strategies through cutting-edge light-based therapies. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of the Laser Light Show, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells discuss ground-breaking developments in light-based therapies, specifically focusing on weight and fat loss. The conversation revolves around Erchonia's latest technological advancements that promise to transform traditional approaches towards managing obesity and promoting healthier lifestyles. They introduce the new Zerona Z8 laser—an FDA-cleared, high-intensity violet laser designed to increase cellular energy and stimulate weight loss, offering new hope and tools for both individuals and practitioners. The episode delves into the rising challenges and perceptions surrounding obesity, weight loss interventions, and the growing popularity of GLP-1 medications. It highlights the importance of integrating tools like Zerona lasers with holistic lifestyle changes for a sustainable weight loss solution. Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells stress the critical role of cellular energy in weight management and how addressing mitochondrial dysfunction can mitigate the obesity epidemic facing many. They advocate for an energy-first approach that prioritizes physiological health to facilitate consistent long-term behavioral shifts in diet and exercise regimens, ultimately fostering a more balanced and sustainable lifestyle. Key Takeaways: Light-based therapies, like the new Zerona Z8 laser, can revolutionize weight loss treatments by enhancing cellular energy and supporting long-term lifestyle changes. Chronic health issues and weight management difficulties often stem from insufficient cellular energy, making it essential to address mitochondrial dysfunction. The popular notion of light therapies as quick-fixes for melting fat fails to capture the full potential of these technologies as catalysts for broader health improvements. Incorporating tools like lasers with lifestyle adjustments, such as breath work and optimizing circadian rhythms, provides a comprehensive approach to weight loss. A successful weight loss strategy intertwines modern technological interventions with patient dedication to lifestyle changes, offering both immediate and enduring health benefits. Notable Quotes: "The paradigm shift with light-based therapies isn't just about melting away fat, but how they can act as a catalyst for sustainable energy and behavior change." - Dr. Chad Woolner "Patients often lack the physiological energy needed to make lasting lifestyle changes, and that's where therapies like the Zerona laser play a crucial role." - Dr. Andrew Wells "It's about solving mitochondrial dysfunction to empower and enable individuals to make healthier choices consistently." - Dr. Chad Woolner "When you increase your body's capacity to produce more energy, it not only supports weight loss but overall wellness and quality of life." - Dr. Andrew Wells "Using the Zerona laser as a catalyst can completely change someone's energy and mindset, paving the way for long-term health benefits." - Dr. Chad Woolner Resources: Erchonia's Zerona Lasers Book: Brain Energy by Dr. Chris Palmer Dr. Andrew Huberman podcast on circadian rhythm Enhance your understanding of cutting-edge weight loss technologies by listening in on this enlightening episode. Stay tuned for more insights from Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells on the Laser Light Show, revealing how innovative therapies and holistic approaches can transform health practices.

Scott helps Amazon and e-commerce entrepreneurs unlock growth and profitability bottlenecks in their businesses, and then exit for a top valuation. Scott, welcome to the show.Scott 00:00:15  Hey Josh Scott. Great to be here and I'm really looking forward to it.Josh 00:00:18  Scott, maybe we can dive a little bit deeper into that case study. At the beginning, you talked about, you know, that they were you identified that they were a good platform, right? So that they could continue to grow. What does that platform mean?Scott 00:00:31  Yeah. So the pillars of a great platform, the way that I think about it, my mentor, and has done over $20 billion of transactions. So, you know, you know, old school 30, 40 years in the investment banking world. And he his number one thing that he said to me was, Scott, it's not what the seller is selling, it's what the buyer is buying. So I would encourage everybody to not think about what you think is valuable in a business, but think about what buyers value in a business? The first thing that buyers value is not growth, but it's risk diversification.Scott 00:01:07  So the first thing that you need to think about is that you need to be compliance as a part of risk diversification, but also true diversification of your products so that no one product has, you know, more than, you know, 20% of your revenue. Otherwise, Amazon shuts it down or new competition comes in. A buyer can't get comfortable with that risk profile. So, so the first thing I would say is you analyze your risk. The second pillar of valuation is your profitability percentage. And so a lot of people think that if they have more profitability, that they're more valuable than if they have smaller profits. And while that is one of the pillars, a company that has 25 or 30% profit margins is just much more flexible and therefore valuable than a company that's 10 or 15%. So the second thing that we saw in this company was that they had a. Ability to have profitable products. And then we went to growth percentage, which is the third pillar. And I would if you wanted to benchmark a minimum growth percentages 20% per year.Scott 00:02:19  Now with Covid and Covid bumps, you might not all be there. but remember, you're not selling what you've done. You're selling what the business can do with the buyers capital infusion. And their definition is that minimum 20%, ideally 30% year over year growth is required. Well, if you think about what that capability really is, what we saw in this platform was a capability to successfully innovate and launch new products into the marketplace, because once a product gets up to a certain level, it kind of is what it is. So for people that are looking at action items that they can have today, it's that ability to have a successful launch model to drive the growth rate to that particular output. And then the fourth one becomes the size of the earnings. If you can prove that you can do it over a longer period of time, then you become more valuable because 30% growth on a company with a million of revenues is a lot different than somebody with 10 million of revenue. and so I think it's just important to think along building in and that's where that capital need comes in.Scott 00:03:25  Yeah. Because, you know, in this situation, back to this case study we saw in them even what they didn't see. We saw the platform, but they were think of it as borrowing money from uncle Bob. And if you go by, borrow 50 grand from your uncle, that's no problem. But when your business is at 10 million and you go ask them for 1.2 million, you know, uncle Bob says, you know I love you, Josh, but you know, I'm not the right investor for that level. So you have to think of your capital strategy not as an event, but as a process where you're always looking at what capital at the lowest risk, in the lowest cost to fuel that growth. And a lot of people get to a certain level, they don't have the capital planning. So then the growth rate, you know, levels off. So we saw the platform and we brought the capital strategy to place, and we did it through a combination of debt and equity.Scott 00:04:17  And that's what continued to fuel the growth because the person already had in place the ownership group alr...

In this episode, Wendy uncovers the subtle communication patterns that quietly drain revenue, energy, and leadership power in your business. What looks like generosity, flexibility, or professionalism on the surface may actually be creating hidden resentment, blurred boundaries, and income that never quite reaches its potential. You'll discover why communication isn't just a soft skill, it's a revenue skill - and how a few small shifts can immediately change how your business feels and performs. When "Yes" Is Really a No: Discover how saying yes to requests, expectations, or opportunities when you actually mean no quietly erodes your boundaries, drains your energy, and creates hidden resentment in your business. The Hidden Cost of Avoiding Money Conversations: Learn how small hesitations around pricing, payment terms, or financial conversations can slowly chip away at your revenue and attract clients who push your boundaries. Why Over-Explaining Weakens Your Leadership: Explore how the habit of justifying your standards, apologizing for boundaries, or over-explaining decisions can signal uncertainty and undermine your authority. The Small Misalignments That Become Big Problems: Find out why ignoring subtle issues, missed expectations, or shifts in communication compounds over time and eventually impacts both your energy and your income.

He emphasizes practicing self-compassion, reducing comparison, changing self-talk, and learning to love yourself through respect and kindness.

In surgery, when we think of research, often we picture randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and big data sets. But have you ever considered what we might miss by limiting our research programs to quantitative inquiry? What if you want to understand the culture or identity of your department or your training program? Or, what If you want to understand the values, priorities, and lived experiences of your patients? Some of the most meaningful insights about how we teach, learn, and practice surgery come from talking to people. Their words, their stories, and their experiences, and that's where qualitative research comes in.
