This is Part Two of my conversation with Dr Fern Kazlow, clinical psychotherapist, business strategist, and mentor to high achievers, based in New York, USA. In this episode, we explore her Resistance Paradox™, how to understand your own patterns, and why changing your mindset starts with compassion. We go beyond communication and dive deep into resistance, beliefs, and the psychology of change. We discuss how high achievers get stuck, why old patterns hold us back, and how to lead and live with more clarity and connection. If you haven't heard Part One yet, go back and check it out; it sets the stage for this deep, transformative discussion.  “Turn up the discernment, dial down the judgment.” - Dr K.  Five Takeaways: What once helped you succeed can now be the very thing holding you back. Understand your resistance—it's the gateway to your next level. Changing beliefs starts with curiosity and compassion. Only a small, focused group can inspire massive change within a profession. “Slay your dragons — don't slay yourself.” Self-awareness beats self-attack.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend and founder of Pause Breathwork, Samantha Skelly, for a deeply honest and soulful conversation about evolution, alignment, and faith in both life and business. Samantha shares how her journey as an entrepreneur has transformed into a spiritual assignment—one rooted in artistry, service, and surrender. We talk about what it means to evolve past old versions of success, let go of what no longer feels aligned, and allow business to become a living, breathing expression of who you truly are. We also dive into the importance of slowing down, receiving support, and making peace with change. Samantha opens up about the role faith and prayer have played in her life, her return to her Christian roots, and how she's learned to invite God into her business decisions. This episode is an inspiring reminder that your evolution is sacred, your alignment is your greatest strategy, and peace comes when you finally trust that you are exactly where you're meant to be.

And so no matter if it's relationships, business, what have you, if there's something that just keeps being that spiritual sandpaper for you, you've gotta really ask yourself like, what am I tolerating here? And just simply put, raise the standard.” - Julie Solomon  “  I couldn't see a pathway of it being something else. And I think I had an ego layering on that because my ego was like, “well, surely we can't simplify because then the revenue will drop, and if the revenue drops, then we're not gonna continually grow. And what's that gonna do?” So I had to love fiercely, the part of me that was trying to take over by telling me to keep scaling and what I mean by that is like, not destroy it, not cut it off, not badmouth it, but just love the little girl inside of me that's like, “I wanna keep growing. What if I don't? Who am I gonna upset?” - Samantha Skelly  RESOURCES:

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker.New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

In this episode, we're leaning into an important conversation about aged-out youth in foster care and the challenges they face when transitioning into adulthood. Without consistent support or resources, many young adults leaving foster care struggle to break free from generational cycles of dysfunction, often feeling isolated and unprepared for life on their own. At Hope Bridge, we're committed to stepping into that gap. You'll hear how we're working to support this vulnerable community through: Birthday Blessings – celebrating milestones with aged-out youth so they feel seen and valued. Thanksgiving Together – joining ACTION Ohio at the Compassion Center for their annual holiday dinner, bringing community and belonging to foster care teens and alumni. Elev8:28 – a new connection group launching this October for young adults who have aged out of foster care, offering community, encouragement, and hope. Looking ahead, we're exploring ways to provide affordable housing, safe environments, and mentoring relationships for these young adults to help them thrive. Want to make a difference? You can get involved through prayer, volunteering, or financial contributions. Together, we can ensure no young adult has to navigate this journey alone.  Episode Highlights:  Aged Out Youth Program at Hope Bridge  Exciting updates! Thanksgiving Together  Elev8:28 Connection Group  Future Goals for this Initiative Partner with us to serve Aged Out Youth   Find More on Hope Bridge: Thanksgiving Together Registration  Contribute Financially to our Aged-Out Youth Program  Become a Sponsor for Thanksgiving Together  Become a Volunteer  Register for Elev8:28  Visit Our Website  Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Facebook  Foster Our Community Instagram  RSVP for Thanksgiving Together Here!

In this episode of Herb of the Month, I dive into the world of Angelica archangelica—a tall, majestic herb celebrated for both its medicinal and magical qualities. I'll share its physical traits, how it grows best, and the many ways it has been used throughout history. From protecting against plague to soothing anxiety, Angelica has long been considered one of the great protectors in the herbal tradition.I also weave in some of my own experiences working with this plant, particularly in supporting family health and children's well-being. Together, we'll explore its role as both a healing ally and a spiritual guardian.

The best leaders are the ones that can hold space for both—care personally and challenge directly. Work never happens in a vacuum. Field calls, customer pressure, travel, and deadlines compound the very real mental load carried by water professionals. In this conversation, Dr. Andy Melton, a professional counselor and executive coach at  www.andymelton.com—shares clear, practical ways leaders and teams can recognize mental health warning signs, set the right boundaries, and respond with care without stepping outside their role.  Care Personally, Challenge Directly—Inside Clear Boundaries Managers aren't neutral parties, and that matters. Andy explains the built-in conflict of interest when a supervisor probes too deeply into an employee's personal struggles. You still need to check in—but do it in role: use open-ended, performance-anchored questions (“What's been challenging for you lately?”), document observations, and offer resources instead of diagnoses. He also highlights Kim Scott's “Radical Candor” frame—care personally and challenge directly—as a durable leadership posture for tough conversations.   Spotting Decline Early—Behavioral, Cognitive, Physical  Before missed KPIs and callbacks spike, there are tells: sudden drops in productivity, withdrawal, irritability, rising absence/tardiness, markedly negative self-talk, and physical complaints (fatigue, headaches, stomach issues). Andy shares a simple “dashboard” self-check—sleep and eating patterns—plus trackable 1–10 scales for stress, energy, engagement, and mood stability to catch trends early.  When It's Serious—Safe Paths and Resources  Anonymous surveys can surface urgent risks—including suicidality. Andy outlines responsible next steps: widen communication, invite follow-ups, and immediately involve a mental health professional or crisis resources. Know the number 988 and your local mobile crisis team information; publish those options prominently so help is never far away.  Grounding Under Load—3 Techniques You Can Use Anywhere  For anxiety (mind racing ahead) and depression (mind stuck in the past), uniting mind and body in the present increases bandwidth. Andy teaches three job-friendly tools: the four-second “box” breath, a five-senses “sensory scan,” and a head-to-toe “progressive muscle relaxation.” Each can be done discreetly at a desk, in a service truck, or before a customer meeting.  Strong operations require strong people. Build a culture that normalizes check-ins, provides resources, and keeps performance expectations clear. That's how teams protect each other and maintain reliability in the field.  Listen to the full conversation above. Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps    02:20 - Trace welcome Industrial Water Week is next week and why it's our "Super Bowl" 11:38 — Water You Know with James McDonald 13: 11 - Upcoming Events for Water Treatment Professionals    15:14 - Introduction for Dr. Andy Melton 15:35 - Andy's background 19:06 - Why mental health is hard to discuss at work; stigma and judgment 21:40 - Cognitive/physical signs: negative self-talk, fatigue, headaches, stomach issues 23:33 — Why self-awareness is hard; “mirror” idea of counseling/coaching 24:21 — Self “dashboard”: sleep and eating as early indicators 26:22 — Employer question: caring without crossing the line 31:44 — Impact on teammates and operations; why the talk still must happen 32:06 — Culture: build trust so care is believed 36:12 — Psychological safety: education via outside counselors/coaches; offer EAPs 42:07 — 988 explained; local mobile crisis teams and how they respond 45:06 — Awareness first: listen to body; define “stress” simply 48:27 — Grounding overview: techniques to reunite mind and body   Quotes  Struggles in mental health still have stigma… but I do think there are ways to handle this sensitive subject in the workplace.

How much AI is too much AI in podcasting? With OpenAI's surprise release of Sora 2, creators can now build digital clones of themselves in seconds. Riverside is also jumping into the mix, rolling out chat-based editing that promises to cut hours of work with a single command. But are these tools helpful breakthroughs or just shiny distractions? Beyond the tech, the industry has plenty more to buzz about: Mel Robbins topping the “how-to” charts despite ad-heavy episodes, the Black Podcasting Awards going live for the first time in Baltimore, and Rode's Creator of the Year competition offering a $200K prize pool. And in a twist only podcasting could deliver, an indie host and a celebrity both launched shows called Rock Bottom—sparking a bigger conversation about identity, trust, and what it really takes to stand out.Episode Highlights: [03:43] Podcast Statistics and Updates[14:35] Upcoming Events and Awards[18:43] AI News and Developments[25:25] Veo 3 Storyboard Feature and Fluid Video Creation[27:20] Riverside's Chat-Based Editing Announcement[35:18] People's Choice Podcast Awards Update[36:51] Buzzsprout's Podcast Name Generator[42:15] Trademarking and Protecting Podcast Names[47:30] YouTube's AI-Powered Music Hosts and Collaborator FeaturesLinks & Resources: Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Rode Creator of the Year:https://creatorawards.rode.com/Black Podcasting Awards: https://blackpodawards.comSpeke Fest: https://podnews.net/event/speke-fest-night-of-the-living-podAfros & Audios:https://podnews.net/event/7th-annual-afros-audio-podcast-festival-uniting-black-podcastsMatchup & Mixup Use Promo Code PMC to Get In Free: https://bit.ly/4nxjvP7What is Sora 2?:https://openai.com/index/sora-2Podnews:www.podnews.netPodcast Name Generator: https://www.buzzsprout.com/podcast-name-generatorPodcast People's Choice Awards: https://www.podcastawards.comRemember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.

Dr Fern Kazlow returns to the podcast, and we dive into the critical role communication plays in building trust with our patients. This is Part One of our conversation, where we focus on how poor communication can damage connections with patients, staff, colleagues, and also family and friends. We also examine the dangers of outsourcing, particularly when it comes to compromising your authenticity, and why connection-powered business is the future. PLEASE, take a look at my UPCOMING EVENTS.  Eight Key Takeaways from (Part One) Poor communication directly decreases trust and weakens patient loyalty. Human connection is more important than ever in a world leaning heavily on automation and AI. Connection-powered business requires presence, listening, and authenticity. Patients can easily tell when communication is outsourced or generic. Editing and creating content yourself helps maintain authenticity and audience respect. Loyalty comes from honest communication, not just good outcomes. Presence in patient interactions is more valuable than perfection. Malpractice claims often stem from poor communication rather than poor outcomes. If you're looking for a speaker for an upcoming event, you can email me at tyson@podiatrylegends.com or tf@tysonfranklin.com, and we can discuss the range of topics I cover. Alternatively, you can visit my SPEAKERS PAGE.  Would You Like A Little Business Guidance?  A podiatrist I spoke with in early 2024 earned an additional $40,000 by following my advice from a 30-minute free Zoom call.  Think about it: you have everything to gain and nothing to lose, and it's not a TRAP.

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom.

What happens when cities become “networked”—and water systems start telling us what they need in real time? In this episode, Trace Blackmore speaks with Christine McHugh (CEO, White Strand Development) about practical smart-city strategies for water: real-time monitoring, digital twins, and IoT/AI approaches that turn Legionella control from periodic testing into continuous risk management. Christine frames smart water not as gadgets, but as a disciplined, data-driven process that improves human health, operational efficiency, and insurability. Building the “Networked” City: A Practical Definition   Christine defines a smart city as a networked one—linking health, energy, waste, and water through technology that measures and correlates across systems. The aim isn't novelty; it's safer drinking water and safer water environments via better data and faster decisions. Digital twins, decentralized treatment, and AI-enabled pattern recognition help teams move from “single point-in-time readings” to persistent trends they can act on. Legionella Risk, Reframed as Strategy   Most water programs still sample periodically, waiting days for results. Christine argues the future is pattern-based, proactive control: track temperature, stagnation/flow, and disinfectant continuously; intervene when pattern thresholds indicate elevated risk. This lens aligns water quality, human wellness, and insurance risk reduction, encouraging property insurers and building owners to incentivize water science as part of smart-building operations.  From Sensors to Sense-Making: Hierarchy, Data Lakes, and Reporting  Adding devices isn't enough. Christine stresses a hierarchy of sensors and data governance so operations, engineering, and ESG teams aren't running conflicting reports from siloed sources (BMS vs. cloud dashboards). Her model: create a data lake with agreed-upon sources of truth and standardized outputs so every stakeholder “sees the same movie.”  Case Studies & What “Good” Looks Like  Christine highlights programs that combined water management plans, continuous disinfectant monitoring, and campus-scale digital twins—reducing manual tests, achieving compliance, and cutting consumption. European hospitals using IoT on hot-water systems report faster compliance and fewer manual interventions. The pattern: real-time insight + trained people + maintenance and reporting contracts = measurable risk reduction.  Cybersecurity: Close the Back Doors  Smart water raises legitimate cyber concerns. Christine's guidance: encrypt all sensor communications, hire experts to penetration-test your own systems, and watch for unexpected bridges (e.g., HVAC or even “non-critical” devices) into critical networks. OT/IT segmentation, alert transparency, and a culture of continuous testing matter as much as the sensors themselves.  Public–Private Partnerships (with Academia)  The fastest path to adoption pairs public oversight and access to infrastructure with private-sector technology and capital—and an academic partner for research and validation. Clear performance metrics and maintained as-builts keep pilots honest and scalable.  Resilience: Droughts, Floods, and Stormwater  Smart networks matter beyond Legionella. Real-time consumption, leak detection, and pressure management minimize waste during droughts; stormwater and wastewater sensors prevent overflows that contaminate receiving waters during floods. Long-running sensor programs abroad show how a single resort area eliminated contamination events by instrumenting the system and responding to alerts.  Emerging Tech to Watch  From self-healing pipes and biosensors to drone inspections and AI-orchestrated networks, Christine sees water systems becoming more like natural ecosystems—self-regulating, adaptive, and resilient—while humans supervise exceptions and validate performance.  For industrial water professionals, the takeaway is clear: treat smart water as an integrated risk-management system, not a pile of devices. Invest in sensor hierarchy, unified data, and team training, and align the work with safety and insurance outcomes. That's how you protect people, performance, and the balance sheet.
