Why This Episode MattersSabrina Maniscalco is one of the few people in quantum who has lived the full arc: two decades of academic work on open quantum systems and non-Markovian noise at Palermo, Turku, Edinburgh, and Helsinki, followed by founding Algorithmiq with three of her former researchers after an early Qiskit Camp. That trajectory matters now because Algorithmiq just had a landmark stretch — sole winner of the $2M Wellcome Leap Q4Bio prize for a quantum-enabled cancer drug discovery workflow, an €18M Series B, a global HQ move to Milan, and its Tensor Network Error Mitigation (TEM) function landing in IBM's Qiskit Functions catalog.If you're trying to make sense of where quantum software actually creates value before fault tolerance arrives — and what a credible "trajectory to advantage" looks like when paired with real clients in life sciences — this is a grounded, technically specific conversation with someone building it.EPISODE SPONSORThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits. It's time for a paradigm shift. The answer is a scalable quantum network, built on open standards and vendor-agnostic architecture. By uniting distributed quantum devices, you unlock limitless computational power.Learn more about the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch at Outshift.com.Go deeper with the blog post The switch that quantum networking has been waiting for.What We Get IntoWhy a background in open quantum systems and non-Markovian noise turned out to be unusually well-suited to running algorithms on noisy near-term hardwareThe actual science behind the Q4Bio winning workflow: simulating excited-state dynamics of a photosensitizer drug already in Phase II clinical trials, on up to 100 qubitsHow quantum-boosted DMRG works — and why it gives you a built-in benchmark against the best classical method via the bond dimensionThe tradeoff Sabrina would and wouldn't make between more qubits and lower noise, and why neutral atoms' slower sampling rates matter for chemistryWhy even fault-tolerant algorithms like quantum phase estimation still depend on getting state initialization and measurement rightAlgorithmiq's two-product structure: the Digital Quantum Interface (hardware-agnostic infrastructure) and the life sciences application frameworkHow methods built for chemistry are now opening doors into optimization and GenAI — and why that direction emerged from the work, not from a strategy deckWhat the move from Helsinki to Milan signals about the European quantum ecosystem and Algorithmiq's commercial scale-upHow an active learning pipeline is already proposing novel drug variants for synthesis in Prof. Sherri McFarland's labResources & LinksGuest & CompanyAlgorithmiq — The company Sabrina co-founded with Guillermo García-Pérez, Matteo Rossi, and Boris Sokolov; quantum software for life sciences and chemistry.Sabrina Maniscalco — University of Helsinki Research Portal — Publication record covering open quantum systems, non-Markovian dynamics, and quantum information.Sabrina Maniscalco — AI for Good Bio — Consolidated bio covering academic roles and advisory positions, including IQOQI Austria and CERN's Quantum Technology Initiative.The Q4Bio WinAlgorithmiq Wins $2M Wellcome Leap Q4Bio Prize — Company announcement detailing the photodynamic therapy workflow.Wellcome Leap — Q4Bio Prize Announcement — Funder's perspective on finalists and criteria.IBM Quantum Blog — Q4Bio Finalists — IBM's account of the workflow and quantum-classical integration.Funding & HQ MoveTech.eu — Algorithmiq's €18M Series B and Milan move — Coverage of Italy's largest quantum VC round to date.Quantum Computing Report — Algorithmiq Relocates to Milan — Strategic context including the Q4Bio win and IBM partnership.EU-Startups coverage — Investor lineup and Italy's National Quantum Strategy framing.Quantum Advantage & ToolingIBM Quantum Blog — The Dawn of Quantum Advantage — Includes Algorithmiq's TEM (Tensor Network Error Mitigation) function in the Qiskit Functions catalog.Algorithmiq & IBM Quantum Advantage Tracker — The heterogeneous materials experiment Algorithmiq and IBM put forward as a community benchmark.Silicon Republic interview with Sabrina — Useful prior context on her philosophy of using quantum to simulate quantum systems.Key Quotes & InsightsOn the foundation of the company's approach: "We learned very early what we thought were the bottlenecks of quantum computers — what you really need to worry about if you want to implement computation at scale." A direct line from Qiskit Camp Vermont to Algorithmiq's product strategy.On Q4Bio, in Sabrina's words: "This molecule is already in Phase II clinical trial. So it's not hydrogen. It's a real molecule." A useful counter to the common critique that quantum chemistry demos still live in toy-model land.On quantum-boosted DMRG (insight): In the worst case, the method matches the best classical technique; in the better case, it outperforms it — and the bond dimension tells you which regime you're in. Built-in benchmarking against the classical baseline.On the hardware tradeoff: Asked whether she'd prefer 100 higher-fidelity qubits or 200 noisier ones, Sabrina's answer is "it depends" — and the explanation about why neutral atoms' lower sampling rates limit chemistry use cases is one of the more concrete things you'll hear on platform tradeoffs.On strategy (insight): New verticals at Algorithmiq are ...

In today's deeply personal episode, Marley shares one of the biggest lessons and initiations she is currently moving through: learning how to truly surrender.After weeks of consistent meditation and profound inner reflection, she reveals the powerful realization that transformed her perspective on control, faith, manifestation, and trusting life's unfolding.If you've ever struggled to let go of an outcome, felt attached to a relationship, financial goal, or dream, or found yourself trying to force life into a particular direction, this episode offers a powerful invitation to release your grip and trust something greater.Get Instant Access To My FREE Training: Clear Your Limiting BeliefsIf you're an entrepreneur who feels like you're doing all the things but still not seeing the results you know you're capable of, this training is for you.Join me live as I walk you through my proven process for uncovering and clearing the subconscious beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.

It means taking aligned action while releasing attachment to how and when results arrive.Many of the greatest manifestations arrive in ways we never could have planned ourselves. Trusting the unfolding often creates outcomes beyond what we imagined possible.Journal QuestionsWhat am I trying to control right now?What am I afraid would happen if I let go?What emotional need am I expecting this outcome to fulfill?What would it look like to trust that this is already being taken care of?Where can I replace force with faith?Memorable Quote"The only reason we don't let go is because we don't trust that it will be taken care of."Resources & Links✨ Join my FREE live training: Clear Your Limiting Beliefs: ⁠⁠www.marleyrose.ca/clear⁠ ⁠✨ Download the Higher Self App: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/higherself.app/⁠✨ Join House Of Freedom https://www.marleyrose.ca/houseoffreedom✨ Explore my programs and coaching opportunities: ⁠linktr.ee/marleyroseharris⁠Connect With MarleyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/marleyroseharris/Website: https://www.marleyrose.ca/Email: ⁠hello@marleyrose.ca⁠YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@marleyroseharrisLove The Podcast?If this episode resonated with you, I would be so grateful if you left a review.Send a screenshot of your review & email it to hello@marleyrose.ca and we'll send you a special gift as a thank you for supporting the show.Thank you for being here, angel.

In this episode, Katie is tackling the common belief that wedding enquiries do not convert because the price is too high. The simple answer is that it is not always a pricing problem, sometimes the enquiry process has not created enough trust, clarity or certainty for the couple to feel safe saying yes. Katie shares why couples ghost, why information alone does not always lead to a booking, and how wedding suppliers can start thinking differently about sales conversations without becoming pushy.Katie also shares the story of Charlotte and David, who increased their prices and started booking more of their highest package, and explains why confidence, clarity and how you lead the conversation can completely change the way couples respond.If you want to hear more about WedPro Studio and become one of the Founding 100, join the list here:https://founding100.wedprostudio.com/Episode Highlights: Why wedding suppliers often blame price when enquiries go quietThe difference between a pricing problem and a certainty problemWhy couples ghost after asking for prices or having a good conversationHow decision fatigue, perceived risk and fear of choosing wrong affect wedding bookingsWhy your enquiry reply is not just admin, it is a trust signalThe reason “let me know if you have any questions” can leave couples stuckWhy sales should feel like guidance, not pressureThe story of Charlotte and David increasing their prices and booking more top packagesWhy your energy around your price teaches couples how to feel about your priceHow WedPro Studio is being built to support content, enquiries, sales, client experience and follow upHow to join the Founding 100 and help shape WedPro Studio before it launches publiclyWant to be part of the Founding 100?Katie is opening WedPro Studio to a select group of wedding suppliers who want early access, want to help shape the tool, and want support with the real moving parts of their business, including content, enquiries, sales, client experience and follow up.Join the list here:https://founding100.wedprostudio.com/

What if the reason self-care feels impossible isn't laziness, lack of time, or poor planning — but the invisible, never-ending mental load that mums carry every single day? In this episode of Mucked Up My Self Care, Linda and Jill get real about the weight of the mental load: the planning, scheduling, remembering, and organising that keeps the family ship afloat — and quietly drowns our capacity for self-care. From pregnancy brain to tea towels that seem to multiply on the bench, this conversation is warm, honest, and deeply relatable for any mum who has ever felt like her brain just won't switch off.In this episode, you'll learn:Why the mental load is a self-care crisis — and the research that backs it upHow mums carry the majority of household mental load tasks and what that actually costs usWhy awareness of the mental load isn't always enough to change it — and what the real gap isWhat it looks like to gently let go of mental load tasks, even just for a seasonHow to start sharing the load with a partner, your kids, or your wider support networkWhy passing off even one small task out loud can be a powerful first stepThe role society and systems play in keeping mums overwhelmed — and why it's not your faultHow to identify the one piece of your mental load you've been silently carrying aloneThe mental load doesn't take a day off — but you deserve a break from carrying it all alone. Whether you're deep in pregnancy, parenting solo, or navigating a household where the invisible work still somehow lands on your shoulders, this episode is your reminder: you are not failing. You are carrying too much. Jill and Linda invite you to start small — name the one thing you've been silently managing, and consider who else could hold a piece of it. That conversation? That's self-care too.Until next week, we hope you can unstuck your muck!

The shocking scandal rocking Israel's legal establishment is finally getting more attention. In this powerful video, we break down how the Military Advocate General has been protected for over 210 days despite her direct involvement in one of the worst blood libels against IDF soldiers in history.After October 7th, when Hamas livestreamed their atrocities, certain elements within Israel's own institutions turned against our holy soldiers. The Military Advocate General allegedly played a central role in leaking a misleading video that falsely accused IDF troops of rape, a claim that went viral globally and caused massive diplomatic damage to Israel.Yet instead of accountability, she has been shielded by the system. No real investigation. No indictment. No loss of rank. Just a fake “dismissal” while she continues collecting a full pension.This is not an isolated incident. It is part of a dangerous pattern of a “deep state”, unelected officials in the legal, military, and intelligence worlds who work against the will of the Israeli people and their elected government.In this video we expose:The 210-day cover-upHow the system protects its ownThe connection to the broader war against religious and nationalist soldiersWhy this internal corruption is as dangerous as our external enemiesIf you want to understand the real battle happening inside Israel, between those who want a strong, proud, Jewish state and those who want to keep it weak and dependent, this video is a must-watch.The truth is coming out. The Israeli people are waking up.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

The financial news cycle moves fast, but the fundamentals of investing have not changed. Melissa Joy, CFP® sits down with Ben Carlson, Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth Management and author of five books including his latest, Risk and Reward, to explore what history actually teaches us about markets, human nature, and the psychology behind smart long-term investing. Ben brings equal parts data and storytelling to make the case that understanding the past is one of the most underrated tools an investor can have.From the inflationary spiral of the 1970s to lost decades and the dot-com aftermath, Ben and Melissa walk through the market cycles that shaped today's investing environment and what those periods reveal about our own tendencies as investors. They also dig into the coming wave of wealth transfer, why women will increasingly control the bulk of financial assets, and why the financial advice industry is not yet ready for it.What You'll LearnWhy studying financial history matters and what it reveals about the range of possible outcomesHow inflation in the 1970s shaped investor psychology in ways that still resonate todayWhat the lost decade of 2000 to 2010 teaches about diversification and why that lesson keeps getting forgottenWhy simplicity in a financial plan beats complexity almost every timeHow to build a portfolio durable enough to survive a wide range of outcomes without requiring you to predict the futureWhy preparation is more valuable than prediction when it comes to investingWhat the great wealth transfer means for women and why the financial advice industry needs to catch upHow human nature is the one investing variable that never changes across market cyclesWhat Ben's list of 20 investing beliefs reveals about discipline, self-awareness, and behavioral financeWhy the best financial plan is the one you can actually stick with through difficult marketsAbout Ben CarlsonBen Carlson is the Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth Management and the author of five books on investing and personal finance, including his latest, Risk and Reward.

Cocodona 250 delivered some of the most inspiring performances in ultrarunning — and inside those performances are lessons every ultrarunner can use, whether you're chasing a podium, a PR, or simply trying to reach the finish line.In this episode, I break down the biggest takeaways from this year's Cocodona 250, including what Rachel Entrekin's historic overall win and Kilian Korth's men's course record can teach us about belief, preparation, execution, and resilience in long ultras.Because in races this long, fitness matters — but it's not the only thing that determines your result. Your mindset, aid station strategy, fueling plan, decision-making, and ability to problem-solve when everything goes wrong can be the difference between a breakthrough and a DNF.In this episode, you'll learn:Why “unreasonable” goals might be the exact thing that help you level upHow to pair big belief with the actions required to actually make it realThe two biggest keys to faster, more efficient aid stationsWhy sometimes a calculated risk can save your entire raceHow to know when to fix a problem immediately versus keep movingWhy you don't have to eat real food in long ultras if your fueling plan worksHow good weather can trick you into making bad race-day decisionsWhy a bad stretch early in a 100- or 200-mile race does not mean your race is overThis one is for any ultrarunner who wants to race smarter, believe bigger, and become harder to break when things get tough.SHOW LINKS:Want to be coached by me and my team to crush your next ultramarathon in our 1:1 coaching program?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Book a free call here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with one of our coaches to see if we are a good fit!Want to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?

The voice in your head, the one that whispers you're too much or not enough, or that it's all too late, can run your life. In this solo episode, Jo unpacks the inner critic: what it actually is, why it gets so loud in midlife, and three powerful ways to start quietening it. It's time to change how you talk to yourself.In this episode, we explore:What the inner critic really is, and why it wasn't born meanWhy midlife has a particular way of turning the volume upHow to separate yourself from the voice so it loses its gripThe one question that stops a critical thought in its tracksWhy speaking to yourself like a good friend is more powerful than any affirmationIf you've ever spoken to yourself in a way you'd never speak to someone you love, this episode is the gentle, honest place to begin.Connect with JoBook a 20-minute connection call: ⁠https://calendly.com/jo--138/20min?month=2025-07⁠Re Imagine mentoring: ⁠https://www.joclarkcoaching.com/work-with-me⁠Resources and programmes: ⁠https://www.joclarkcoaching.com/resources⁠Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/joclarkcoaching/⁠LinkedIn:⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/joclarkcoaching/⁠

You know that spiral.The launch didn't land.The numbers weren't what you hoped.And somewhere in the middle of the questioning comes the sentence that sounds spiritual:“I guess I'll just trust God's timing.But if we're honest…Sometimes that's genuine surrender. And sometimes it's resignation with a Bible verse attached.In this episode, we're talking about the difference. Because what if the problem isn't you…But how have you been measuring? There's a different lens available to you. I'm introducing you to Kingdom Spiritual Intelligence (KSI), and how it completely reshapes the way you interpret results, faithfulness, and forward movement in your life and leadership. In this episode, you'll discover:Why KPI (Key Performance Indicators) only tells part of the storyWhat Kingdom Spiritual Intelligence reveals that KPI never canWhy the unseen always precedes the seenHow to stop spiraling when results don't show upHow to realign with what Heaven is actually saying about your life  Write this somewhere you'll see it: We win, even when it may not look like it yet. That's not wishful thinking. That's not denial. That is Kingdom Spiritual Intelligence operating exactly as it should.

In Part 1 of this conversation, Ray Power joins Chat By The Pitch to talk about youth soccer development, coaching philosophy, parent education, and why keeping kids in love with the game matters more than early results.Ray shares his journey from teacher to professional coach educator, how writing Making the Ball Roll shaped his philosophy, and why modern coaching environments should focus on development, trust, communication, and long-term player growth.This episode dives deep into what parents misunderstand about coaching, why match day behavior matters, and how coaches can create environments where players actually learn and thrive.Key Talking PointsRay Power's journey into coaching and coach educationWhy youth soccer should prioritize development over outcomesThe importance of keeping kids in love with the gameWhy match day should not become joystick coachingThe role parents play in youth player developmentCoaching environments built on trust and communicationWhy players need different coaching experiences growing upHow coaches develop their own philosophy over timeThe difference between learning and simply chasing resultsWhy parents need to better understand the development processQuotes from Ray Power“If we could just get out of the way of kids falling out of love with the game, everything after that will run its course.”“Do your coaching in training. Match day should mostly be reminders.”“The game evolves. Coaches have to evolve too.”“You can't ruin the love of the game for kids.”“Good coaches will come, bad coaches will come — that's part of development too.”“Kids grow from praise. They want to repeat what gets recognized.”“If you surround something with negativity all the time, that's what it becomes.”“Parents often arrive without the motivation to learn, but with plenty to say.”“Winning at the expense of development is where youth soccer gets lost.”“The most important thing is making sure kids want to come back tomorrow.”Connect with Ray Power

Have you ever felt weird about following up with a bride or couple after sending your proposal? Have you worried that you were going to sound pushy, annoying, desperate, or just plain sleazy?In this episode, Jen breaks down 10 practical ways to follow up with a bride professionally, confidently, and effectively—without sounding like you are begging for the booking. Because follow-up is not about chasing people. It is about leading the process, giving direction, and helping couples know what to do next.If you are a florist, wedding vendor, or creative business owner who struggles with sales follow-up, proposal follow-up emails, or booking wedding clients, this episode will help you create a stronger follow-up process that feels natural and gets better results.In this episode, Jen covers:Why professional follow-up sounds different than insecure follow-upHow to set expectations from the beginning so follow-up feels normalWhy “just checking in” is not enoughHow to follow up with value instead of awkward energyWhy making the next step crystal clear mattersThe best follow-up cadence after sending a wedding proposalHow to use urgency without sounding pushyWhy emotional intelligence matters when following up with couplesThe mindset mistakes florists make when someone does not respond right awayHow confident wording changes your follow-up emailsWhen to stop following up and let the lead go gracefullyWhat you'll learn:If you have ever wondered how to follow up with a bride after sending a proposal, how often to follow up with a wedding inquiry, or how to write a follow-up email without sounding desperate, this episode gives you practical, real-world examples you can start using right away.Jen shares why follow-up should feel like leadership, not begging—and why your job as a business owner is to guide people through the process with confidence, not disappear after the proposal is sent.Key takeaway:Follow-up is not sleazy when it is clear, helpful, timely, and professional. The goal is not to pressure someone into booking. The goal is to make the decision process easier, calmer, and more obvious for them.Why this matters for florists and wedding pros:A strong follow-up process can help you:book more weddingsincrease proposal conversionsfeel more confident in salesstop overthinking ghostingcreate a more polished client experienceIf you are trying to improve your wedding sales process, proposal follow-up strategy, or how to book more wedding clients, this episode is a must-listen.Listen nowTune in to hear all 10 ways to follow up with a bride without feeling sleazy—and start using follow-up as a powerful part of your booking process.If you want, I can also turn this into a matching Instagram caption + carousel for the episode.

Ever spend an entire afternoon trying to save 38 cents… while completely ignoring the $10 decision sitting right in front of you?Yeah.

Same smart moves. Same need for a financial plan that actually works in real life.If you've ever wondered whether you're spending too much energy on the wrong financial goals—or you just want smarter ways to make progress without making yourself miserable—this episode belongs in your playlist today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

And what happens when the results don't come on your timeline?In this first episode, Annette sits down with her dad, David Carr, a pastor of over 40 years, practical theologian, and one of the wisest people she knows, to talk about the foundation of it all: obedience, faith, and God's timing.If you've ever felt behind, wondered if God forgot about you, or caught yourself trying to force results you weren't supposed to control, this conversation is for you.In this episode, we cover:Why so many faith-driven leaders start from a place of fear and why that matters more than you thinkThe story of King Saul and three specific moments where fear drove him off course, and what that means for your business decisions todayHow Jonathan modeled a different way, leading with prayer, watching for signs, and not needing the creditThe difference between spiritual warfare and a signal from God that you're going the wrong directionWhy "I have the upper hand" is one of the most dangerous thoughts a leader can haveWhat it actually means to surrender results without giving upHow to know if you're acting out of obedience vs. anxietyDavid's personal story of God's provision during a broke seminary weekend and what it taught him about trustThe closing challenge: search your heart.

Like the show? Let us know! Comments, suggestions are open.What happens when “sorry” becomes the only word you reach for?In this episode, we're exploring communication in submission, and how silence, over-apologizing, and fear can quietly disrupt even the healthiest dynamics. Many submissives are taught to be agreeable and accommodating, but when that comes at the cost of honest expression, it creates confusion, resentment, and distance over time.We'll look at why speaking up can feel so difficult, how silence impacts trust and connection, and what it actually means to use your voice in a way that supports both you and your dynamic.You'll also be introduced to a simple, practical framework—Pause, Feel, Frame—to help you move from reactive communication to intentional, grounded speech in real moments.If you've ever struggled to say what you need, or found yourself apologizing instead of communicating, this episode will give you a new way to approach your words with clarity and confidence.In This EpisodeWhy over-apologizing can replace real communicationThe hidden cost of silence in submissionCommon fears that keep submissives from speaking upHow silence creates confusion, assumptions, and distanceWhy using your voice is an act of trust, not defianceThe Pause, Feel, Frame method for intentional communicationHow to move from reactive responses to grounded, clear speech

Send us Fan MailWholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Type 8  | Episode 2 of 4What does transformation actually look like for an Enneagram Eight?Not softer. Not smaller. Not less.In this episode, Amy talks with Melodie, a Type Eight, certified Wholehearted Enneagram Coach, and someone who has done the kind of honest, courageous inner work that changes everything. Melodie shares what it looked like to finally stop filling her plate as a way of avoiding what she couldn't control, what it cost her to keep pushing through when her body was telling her to stop, and how she's learning to trust God's timing when her instinct is to do everything herself, now.Her story will feel familiar if you've ever stayed up 48 hours to finish something that didn't need to be done. If you've ever said hallelujah when someone canceled on you, but couldn't bring yourself to cancel on them. If you've ever wondered whether your strength is carrying you or driving you.This conversation is warm, honest, and full of the kind of specific detail that only comes from someone who's actually done the work.In this episode:Why Melodie resisted the Eight label and what finally made it clickThe navy jet metaphor that reframes what Eight strength actually looks likeThe pattern of doing, doing, doing, and what it was really covering upHow chronic illness became an unexpected invitation to surrenderLearning to wait, rest, and trust God's timing as a Type EightThe "hallelujah when they cancel" story that perfectly captures the Eight's hidden struggleWhat Melodie would tell an Eight who's just starting this journeyYour strength is a gift, and you don't have to carry everything alone.Connect with Melodie Kenniebrew:Email: Instagram: Support the showRESOURCES FOR YOU:Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wickshttps://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicksNot sure about your Enneagram Type?

Think about the last time you had something to say in a meeting and didn't say it. Maybe you were waiting for the right moment. Maybe someone else was talking and you thought you'd jump in after. And then the conversation shifted, and the moment passed, and someone else said something close enough to your idea that everyone moved on without you.That's not just a missed moment. It's directly connected to getting what you want in your career. Every time you stay silent, you're leaving other people to define what you bring to the table. And the story they tell about you is usually not the one you'd choose.In this episode, I'll cover:Why silence isn't neutral and what people actually think when you don't speak upHow to shift your perspective so you stop defending your silencePractical ways to get your voice in the room, even when you don't feel ready_____________________

Why I'm not getting clients is a question most coaches, consultants, and service providers ask at some point, after they've invested in courses and tried every strategy they could find.The cycle feels frustrating because the effort is real, but the results aren't coming.In this episode, Marisa Shadrick gets honest about what's really happening beneath the surface. The problem usually isn't your marketing strategy. It's a limiting belief quietly shaping how you show up across every area of your business, from the clarity of your message to whether you ever hit record or send the sales email.This episode is for coaches and service providers who are working hard but still not seeing consistent results. If that's you, Marisa walks you through exactly where the breakdown happens and why the fix has to start from the inside out. What You'll Discover in This EpisodeWhy investing in more courses and chasing the latest marketing tactic may be prolonging the real problemHow a limiting belief can quietly water down your message without you even knowing itWhat "identity friction" is and why it keeps you vague when you need to be clearThe neurological reason your brain treats visibility like a physical threatWhy trust is built through interaction, not just consistent content postingWhat's really happening when you avoid sales conversations, underprice, or forget to follow upHow to use AI as a mirror to spot where fear may be showing up in your own content You don't need a new strategy. You need clarity on what's actually getting in the way. Once you see it, freedom is possible, and it only gets better from here. Inside AI Lab for Solopreneurs, you will learn to use AI as a strategic partner for marketing, workflow, and consistent client growth.  Use AI strategically  Close gaps in your marketing Create systems that will help you scale  Ready to see what is possible? Visit: https://marisashadrick.com/communityListen to the "Amplify Your Authority" Podcast!

25% of the year is already gone… what has your health gained—or lost?End of Q1 health check: Are you improving your health, or delaying it until life “slows down”?We're heading into the end of the first quarter, and it's time for a real conversation about your health, your habits, and your priorities.So many people say, “I'll focus on my health after this busy season…”But here's the truth—there is always another busy season coming.In this episode of Chiropractic is Sexy, Dr. Paula Ruffin and Dr. Erica Peabody break down:Why delaying your health—even for a few months—adds up fastHow “I'll start later” quietly turns into chronic stress, fatigue, and painThe real reason your body isn't adapting, healing, or keeping upHow your nervous system is either building resilience… or breaking downThe daily habits that actually move the needle (and why consistency beats intensity)You'll also hear a powerful reframe:

Visibility is often taught as a strategy — post more, show up more, be everywhere.But what if visibility isn't something you do… but something you become?In this episode of Soul Velocity, Snehal R. Singh sits down with Sunita Menon — personal branding strategist, mindset coach, and TEDx speaker — to explore a deeper truth:

Three completely different worlds collide in this one.A doctor who walked away from traditional medicine.A nurse who realized she was never taught the full picture.And a Jamaican herbalist who lived cannabis before it was legal and paid the price for it.This episode goes deeper than surface-level cannabis talk.We get into what actually happens when plant medicine meets modern healthcare and why that conversation still makes people uncomfortable.There are prison stories.There are hard truths about the medical system.And there are real questions about what healing actually looks like.The big takeaway is simple:We've been looking at this wrong.What We Get Into:Growing up with cannabis before legalizationGetting arrested and still coming back to the plantWhy doctors and nurses are not trained on cannabisThe gap between what we are told and what actually worksPTSD from prohibition and why it still shows upHow cannabis fits into real healthcareWhy one-size-fits-all medicine falls shortThe idea that your body may already be built to use this plantThe Book:Why We Die, How to Live: Beyond Pills & ProceduresThis book breaks down the top causes of death and looks at them through a different lens, one that includes cannabis, lifestyle, and prevention.This is not a one-and-done read. It is something you come back to.Real Talk:This episode is not about hype.It is about asking better questions.Why is cannabis still misunderstoodWho benefits from thatWhat changes when you actually learn instead of just listenGet the Book: https://www.doctorfelecia.comhttps://www.instagram.com/doctorfelecia/Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Y'all, we're getting real about something every parent with teenagers is dealing with right now - trying to have actual conversations with kids who think they know everything. I'm talking about that wild ride of parenting teens in the age of TikTok, YouTube University, and information overload. Buckle up, because this episode is about to hit you with some hard truths about raising kids who can fact-check you faster than you can finish a sentence.What's cooking in this episode:Why parenting gets harder with each kid (spoiler: they get smarter and more challenging)The difference between raising teens now versus when we were growing upHow social media turned every teenager into a walking contradictionWhy your kid might know who they are... or maybe they don't have a clueWarning: This episode might make you question everything you thought you knew about talking to teenagers. We're not sugarcoating the struggle of raising kids who have access to more information than we ever did growing up.So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and get ready for an honest conversation about the beautiful chaos of communicating with teenagers today. It's time to admit we don't have all the answers and maybe that's okay.

Last week, I was hit by a car. In the weeks leading up to co-hosting a retreat, I was quietly battling imposter syndrome — questioning my capacity to hold big space for women stepping into their own expansion.

With more than 10,000 hours working hands-on with AI, he created the AI Strategy Canvas® and Scalable Prompt Engineering™, frameworks that have helped everyone from law professors to non-technical construction CFOs use AI to compress weeks of work into hours and save their companies millions.Known for making complex AI instantly understandable, John combines real-world case studies, clear frameworks, and a healthy dose of Southern charm. A former Adjunct Instructor of AI at Louisiana State University, he's consistently rated as the speaker who “finally makes AI make sense” and gives audiences tools they can put to work immediately.In this episode, Jennie and John Munsell discuss:Why most businesses overestimate their current level of AI masteryHow AI can remove administrative work and free salespeople to focus on peopleUsing AI to analyze conversations, uncover hidden needs, and improve follow-upHow personalized, AI-assisted proposals dramatically increase conversion ratesKey Takeaways:AI isn't just a faster copywriter; it's a capacity creator that gives salespeople back time to build real relationships.The most powerful AI workflows start with understanding pain, frustration, and desire—before ever pitching a solution.Personalized proposals perform better because they reflect how buyers think, decide, and communicate, not just what they need.When sales conversations are guided by preparation and insight, prospects feel seen, heard, and understood.The future of sales belongs to those who use AI to solve problems, not push products."AI creates capacity, and if you know how to use AI, then you have this excess capacity that is then used to be in front of people, because you're delegating the paperwork to AI." —  John MunsellConnect with John Munsell:Website: https://www.bizzuka.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jwmunsell  CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmasteryInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/YouTube: COMING SOON!LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/levelupcoachllc/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions. You're the expert. Your podcast will prove it. 

Self-love doesn't come from mantras or mirror affirmations. It comes from how you show up for yourself when no one's watching.In this Valentine's episode, we're diving into what self-love really means. Because you don't need another reminder to “love your body”. You need the tools to build self-trust and self-respect, the real foundations of confidence, consistency, and long-term change.Whether you're tired of self-sabotage, constantly breaking promises to yourself, or feeling stuck in a body you're at war with, this episode will help you connect with the version of you who knows she can follow through.Inside this episode:Why self-love is built, not foundThe difference between self-trust and self-respect (and why both matter)How to rebuild trust when you've broken promises to yourselfWhat self-respect looks like in your habits and choicesDaily actions to feel more grounded, confident, and proud of how you show upHow to stop waiting to feel good and start acting in alignment with who you want to beTools & Resources Mentioned:Not Another Diet Book — A no-BS guide to food freedom, mindset shifts, and building consistency that lasts https://www.amazon.com/Not-Another-Diet-Book-learning/dp/B0B45Q4CLH/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1656499379&sr=8-1Book a 1:1 Coaching Session — Personalized strategy + support for your next chapterhttps://www.heathermaio.com/coaching-options

Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.
