Most coaches have someone they pour into. Almost none of them have someone who pours back.In part two with Zach Brandon, JP and Zach go deeper into what it actually takes to develop coaches — not players, coaches — and why that investment may be the most overlooked lever in any program. Zach shares the story that reoriented his entire career: a coach who could not remember his own family moments and discovered he was missing from most of the photos on the wall. The conversation builds into his core coaching framework — Impact = Individual Capabilities x Environment, minus Interference — and why the internal interference is almost always the harder, more important work.This one is for any coach who suspects they might be their own biggest obstacle, or who has never stopped long enough to ask: who is developing me?Chapters(00:00) Intro(05:06) Best Coach Dev at the Diamondbacks(07:00) Expectations vs. Shared Agreements(08:36) Daily Leadership Shares(10:16) Conversations, Not Lectures(11:16) Why Coaching Coaches?(12:22) The Catalyst Story(14:37) The Hardest Conversation(15:36) Who Pours Into the Coach?(18:18) Coach Wellbeing and Player Culture(22:14) The Coaching Impact Equation(26:23) Be the Assistant GM Now(29:19) Internal vs. External Interference(31:00) Can't Read the Label from Inside Jar(33:51) Connecting with Zach BrandonTOC 3-2-13 Quotes | 2 Questions | 1 ResourceYour fast-track to this episode's most actionable ideas."Expectations are oftentimes funneled one directionally.

Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist in New York City, discusses the growing shift from symptom-only “sick care” to a clinically grounded holistic approach to health and recovery. She argues that self-guided wellness routines can leave gaps when underlying medical issues, mental health conditions, substance use disorders, or trauma remain unaddressed, and emphasizes integrating evidence-based clinical evaluation (including labs and deficiency testing) with lifestyle practices. She explains how treating symptoms in isolation misses connections (e.g., stress, sleep, grief) and defines true holistic care as addressing physical, mental, emotional, relational, environmental, and purpose-related factors without rejecting medical treatment. Key components include consistent movement, individualized nutrition built on basics, nervous system regulation (sleep, nature, breathing, meditation/prayer), meaningful social connection, and a sense of purpose as clinically relevant to resilience.

For centuries, Filipino lifeways were presented to outsiders through the distorted lens of colonization—and the oppression, exploitation, and denigration suffered by Filipino ancestors are well-documented. In his work, psychologist and author Carl Lorenz Cervantes draws from Filipino folklore, language, and culture to reorient toward an Indigenous worldview: one that rejects being seen as a passive object in history. * In this episode Carl and CIIS faculty Niralli D'Costa explore Indigenous Filipino worldviews for embodied well-being. Drawing from his latest book, Sikodiwa, Carl shares how to uplift Indigenized Filipino ways of knowing and offers a timely and inspired path toward collective consciousness, cultural authenticity, and embodied well-being. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on April 2nd 2026.

Margaux Nunez est love coach, Maître Praticienne en PNL et fondatrice de la Méthode Miroir. Elle accompagne les femmes qui souhaitent construire une relation de couple plus saine en commençant par le seul levier qu'elles peuvent réellement transformer : elles-mêmes. Sa philosophie repose sur un principe de base en PNL : on perçoit ce que l'on projette. Le couple est un formidable miroir de nos blessures, de nos croyances et de notre style d'attachement. Là où le célibat peut les laisser silencieux, la relation les révèle pour offrir une puissante opportunité de transformation. À travers une méthode mêlant PNL, breathwork, hypnose, EFT et outils de communication concrets, Margaux et son équipe aident les femmes à reprendre leur souveraineté émotionnelle, à sortir des schémas répétitifs et à devenir pleinement actrices de leur vie sentimentale. Son objectif est de leur permettre de construire une relation plus sereine et sécurisante.C'est quoi l'amour pour vous ? 24-25 octobre à Antibes https://congres.cestquoilamour.fr/

Check out my resource library here or search for any topic you need on the Podcast here.Whether you've been with your partner for years or you're navigating dating after a late diagnosis, ADHD changes how we love, connect and show up in relationships, and this episode is entirely about that.Welcome to this week's summer compilation episode. Rather than a single conversation, I've pulled together some of the most resonant clips from three different episodes on ADHD, love, intimacy and relationships, because I wanted to bring all of this into one place for you.We begin with Lisa Rabinowitz, couples counsellor, certified Gottman and PACT therapist and author of Why Won't You Stop Interrupting Me? Lisa talks about how blame rarely helps either partner, why neurodivergence is often present on both sides of a relationship, and how working as a team rather than against each other can genuinely turn things around.Then we hear from Sara-Louise Ackrill and Bontle Senne, AuDHD therapists, writers, and advocates and co-authors of The ND Lovers Club. They talk about psychological safety, masking in relationships, self-disclosure, and why understanding yourself is always the foundation before you can truly connect with someone else.And we close with Dr Angela Wright, a trauma-trained clinical sexologist, sex medicine practitioner and menopause clinician, who talks honestly about how hormones, the nervous system and ADHD all intersect when it comes to desire, intimacy and what changes in midlife.In this episode, we cover:Why neurodivergence is often present in both partners, even when only one has a diagnosisHow to move from blame to teamwork in a neurodiverse relationshipLisa's concept of the "talk nook" and why having a dedicated space for connection mattersWhy psychological safety is the foundation of intimacy for neurodivergent peopleHow masking and people pleasing quietly erode intimacy over timeWhat self-disclosure in relationships and dating really looks like for ND womenWhy so many neurodivergent women are reconsidering traditional relationship structuresHow hormones and perimenopause affect desire, arousal and connectionWhy the ADHD brain's need for novelty and dopamine can complicate long term relationshipsHow the nervous system underpins sexual arousal, and why feeling safe comes firstTimestamps:00:00 - Welcome and introduction to this week's compilation episode03:30 - Lisa Rabinowitz: why both partners are often neurodivergent05:47 - Moving from blame to understanding in a neurodiverse relationship08:00 - How couples come back from the brink with awareness and teamwork10:15 - The three legged race: working toward the finish line together14:48 - Focusing on strengths and creating the talk nook16:29 - Sara-Louise Ackrill and Bontle Senne: psychological safety in relationships20:53 - Why masking is survival, not a quirky personality trait23:27 - Self-disclosure: what to share, when and why28:27 - How perimenopause and diagnosis collide in midlife relationships33:04 - Celebrating the traits neurodivergent women bring to relationships34:33 - Dr Angela Wright: dopamine, novelty and desire in long term relationships37:00 - How hormones affect arousal and what changes in perimenopause41:22 - The nervous system, safety and why emergency mode kills desireLinks and Resources:Find my popular ADHD workshops and resources on my website here.Follow the podcast on Instagram: @adhd_womenswellbeing_podGet my book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit (also available in ebook and audiobook) hereJoin the More Yourself membership community hereVisit Lisa's website: counselorforcouples.comConnect with Lisa on Instagram: @rabinowitzcounselingGet Lisa's book: Why Won't You Stop Interrupting Me?

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Wednesdays on Whidbey & your host, Diane Wyzga. I'm often asked: “What brought you to Whidbey Island?” It's a standard ice breaker question here. My cheeky response is: A ferry brought me; ferries being a mode of transportation among the Washington islands. Many folks come here, vacation, fall in love, and return to claim their spot. Not me. It wasn't love at first sight. In truth, I washed up on the shores of Whidbey Island. My relationship with this place is more like an arranged marriage than falling-head-over-heels in love. An arranged marriage flips the traditional hook-up, dating, live together, get married sequence. Matchmakers introduce the partners, a wedding occurs, and love and intimacy are expected to develop afterward during marriage. While Hollywood movies often frame relationships around immediate romance, arranged marriages rely on a partnership built on shared foundations where emotional bonds grow over time. It's a pragmatic mindset requiring work and compromise that helps offset early disillusionment when one person's habits rub up against the other's expectations.     Unlike the traditional scenario where attraction might peak during a “honeymoon phase” the gradual growth of friendship, love, and meeting milestones together sets up a long-term companionship supported by those strong ties.   Just like our marriages, traditional or arranged, the place we live shapes our identities, behaviors, and well-being. Places we live—like the tides— direct our attention, movement, social interactions, personal growth and development. The community molds our sense of culture, belonging, what is normal, expected, possible and accepted. In ways large and small place fundamentally influences our daily routines, opportunities, and personality. After almost a decade in this semi-rural place, with all the highs and lows that come with starting anew in unfamiliar surroundings how have I come to love thee, Whidbey? Let me count the ways.   There's the cool Pacific Northwest climate, the landscape of old growth forests, farms and farmer's markets, abundant wildlife (sometimes too abundant in the garden), a slower pace because of narrow, winding 2-lane roads and reduced speed limits, the November to May Rain Festival that turns our attention and activities quietly inward. Ours is a deliberate lifestyle. We don't have malls or the hustle and bustle of city streets, or easy access to stuff one can get over in AmeriKa. Of course, that means we rely on ourselves and each other, especially when the power goes out and the hum of generators fills the night sky. Ours is a deceivingly robust community of varied social fabrics, politics, spirituality, intellects and economics. We support writers, artists, hikers, fisherfolk, entrepreneurs, farmers, poets, seniors, educators, and volunteers. Every meeting and gathering comes with a potluck. Yes, it can take time to find your people in a tight-knit rural place, but it's also a matter of stepping out the door, inviting people to share your front porch, building connections, building trust, learning tolerance for others. By and large people on Whidbey are friendly, welcoming, smart, clever, willing to shed big city ways to make room for patience. Maybe even understanding because we do not see all things the same way.   Ours hosts a plethora of outdoor spaces, free public transport, and the most wonderful library system that is the hub of our social connectedness. Sure the prices are higher than most, we do struggle to make ends meet, healthcare service could be better, and ferry schedule might be sketchy at times; but I knew I belonged when people greeted me by name in the grocery store or ACE Hardware or I was invited to begin teaching story courses for adults. Don't get me wrong. Whidbey Island is not unlike your community. It's not all rainbows and rhubarb pie here. We have our share of folks who behave like dumbshits. But for every person who behaves like a dumbshit there's a dozen who are truly kind and decent. That's the bit to remember because despite the ups and downs a time must come when you agree with yourself to set aside feelings of uncertainty, venture out, expand your horizons, engage with your new found community. As an introvert's introvert the idea of making a coffee date was not in my toolkit; but once I did step out it became easier and I learned that others were just waiting to be invited. This place called Whidbey Island is the place I live; even more important are the people I'm still coming to know who are shaping who I am. “But now that I am in love with a place that doesn't care how I look and if I am happy, happy is how I look and that's all.” *** Question: What is it about the place you live that has charmed and shaped you? *** Weathering ~  by Fleur Adcock "My face catches the wind from the snow line and flushes with a flush that will never wholly settle. Well, that was a metropolitan vanity, wanting to look young forever, to pass. I was never a pre-Raphaelite beauty and only pretty enough to be seen with a man who wanted to be seen with a passable woman. But now that I am in love with a place that doesn't care how I look and if I am happy, happy is how I look and that's all. My hair will grow grey in any case, my nails chip and flake, my waist thicken, and the years work all their usual changes. If my face is to be weather beaten as well, it's little enough lost for a year among the lakes and vales where simply to look out my window at the high pass makes me indifferent to mirrors and to what my soul may wear over its new complexion."

Research suggests we spend close to 90% of our lives indoors. While we all need more time outside, there's another part of the solution: designing the places where we live and work to better support our health and wellbeing.In this episode, Monica Olsen sits down with two of the UK's leading voices in biophilic design: Oliver Heath, an expert in regenerative and wellbeing-led design for the built environment, and Dr. Vanessa Champion, founder of the Journal of Biophilic Design and host of the podcast of the same name.Together, they explore how thoughtfully designed spaces can improve our physical and mental wellbeing, the formative project that first inspired Oliver to connect nature with health, why diverse minds need diverse spaces, the exciting innovations emerging in fields like biomimicry, and the growing body of evidence demonstrating the value of biophilic design.Whether you're an architect, designer, developer, or simply curious about creating healthier places, this conversation offers an inspiring look at how nature can transform the built environment—and the people who inhabit it.Show NotesOliver Heath DesignJournal of Biophilic DesignJournal of Biophilic Design PodcastOliver Heath Design: Case StudiesDesign a Healthy Home: 100 Ways To Transform Your Space For Physical and Mental Wellbeing by Oliver HeathBiophilic design, regenerative design, nature-inspired design, wellbeing, healthy buildings, healthy spaces, built environment, sustainable design, architecture, interior design, biomimicry, biophilia, wellness design, environmental psychology, human-centered design, natural materials, natural light, biodiversity, placemaking, Oliver Heath, Vanessa Champion, Journal of Biophilic Design, design innovation, resilient communities, wellbeing-led design, people and planetBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Will Van Derveer and Keith Kurlander, co-authors of “Psychedelic Therapy: A Revolutionary Approach to Restoring Your Mental Health and Reclaiming Your Life.” 

Psychedelic Therapy for Mental Health: Research, Safety, and the Path to FDA Approval: Dr. Will Van Derveer and Keith Kurlander, co-authors of “Psychedelic Therapy: A Revolutionary Approach to Restoring Your Mental Health and Reclaiming Your Life,” reveal the shift from recreational psychedelics to structured, research-based psychedelic-assisted therapy for conditions like PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Van Derveer describes limitations of conventional psychiatry (citing STAR*D remission rates) and his entry into MDMA-assisted PTSD research after promising results. They contrast controlled clinical protocols—screening, preparation, safe setting, trained facilitation, medical monitoring, and post-session integration—with uncontained recreational use. The discussion covers current policy momentum under Trump and RFK Jr., VA interest for veterans, and key agents: ketamine (including abuse risks and clinic-only Spravato), MDMA (phase 3 but not approved in 2024), psilocybin (phase 3, potential FDA approval), LSD (GAD trials), ibogaine (arrhythmia risk, Mexico clinics), ayahuasca, peyote, and microdosing. They also note commercialization, including Eli Lilly's acquisition of a 5-MeO-DMT nasal spray developer, and emphasize an integrative “all-of-the-above” mental health approach.

In this episode of Hope Illuminated, I'm joined by Aaron Witt - founder and CEO of Buildwitt, the fastest-growing media and workforce development platform dedicated to the "dirt world" of critical infrastructure, natural resources, and heavy civil construction. Aaron is a rare voice in this space: someone who has worked the job sites himself, who carries genuine reverence for the people who build the world, and who has built a multi-platform company around the conviction that this industry's future depends on its ability to see, value, and develop the human beings doing the work.Aaron opens with a framing that anchors the entire conversation: the military cannot function without the steel, runways, and infrastructure that construction workers build. First responders cannot reach emergencies without roads. Yet while we celebrate soldiers and firefighters for their sacrifice, the construction worker - equally indispensable, equally exposed to danger, loss, and physical hardship - remains largely invisible in the national conversation about worker well-being. Aaron calls this the invisible sacrifice, and his life's work is making it visible.We dig into the data: construction consistently ranks among the highest-risk industries for suicide, with rates surpassing military and law enforcement in some analyses. Overdose deaths on and around job sites are rising. And yet the support systems available to workers in the field are largely inaccessible - requiring workers on 12-hour shifts to navigate multiple barriers to reach anyone who might help, only to find that the person on the other end has no understanding of their world. Aaron is direct: many traditional EAP resources are, in his words, "completely worthless" for this population.The conversation turns to solutions, and Aaron is equally direct about where change has to start: with leaders. Not leaders giving speeches about wellness, but leaders going first - sharing their own struggles, modeling that it is possible to be strong and vulnerable simultaneously, and creating the conditions in which workers feel safe enough to do the same. Aaron connects this to the broader workforce crisis: with 8 million construction workers and a next generation that is not choosing the trades, well-being is not a soft add-on. It is a recruitment and retention strategy. It is, ultimately, a matter of national infrastructure security.

In this episode of Where Work Meets Life, Dr. Laura sits down with Dr. Max Klau, author of Developing Servant Leaders at Scale and founder of the Center for Courageous Wholeness, to explore why leadership begins with the courage to look inward. They explore the often overlooked concept of shadow, the parts of ourselves we deny, avoid, or leave unexplored, and how these hidden aspects can influence the way we lead and exercise power. Drawing on decades of experience developing leaders in organizations and public service, Max shares why confronting our shadow is essential for creating more compassionate, grounded, and effective leadership in today's world. Max has worked with organizations, civic leaders, and aspiring public servants, which has led him to understand how servant leadership requires more than good intentions. It calls for an ongoing commitment to self-awareness, humility, and personal growth. He and Dr. Laura discuss the relationship between power and purpose, the difference between leading from service versus ego, and why organizations benefit when leaders are willing to acknowledge both their strengths and their blind spots. Together, they explore how greater compassion and integrity can help create healthier workplaces, stronger communities, and a more hopeful future for our world.  "The most dangerous people are the folks who are absolutely convinced that they are pure light." - Max Klau About Max Klau: Dr. Max Klau is an author, consultant, coach, developmental psychologist, and founder of the Center for Courageous Wholeness. His work sits at the intersection of inner development and service to others, helping organizations and individuals practice shadow-integrated servant leadership. After more than two decades designing transformational leadership development programs at City Year and the New Politics Leadership Academy, Dr. Klau developed an approach that views leadership as a dual journey of both inner and outer change. He believes that integrating personal development with meaningful impact is essential in a time of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and social change. Central to his work is the practice of confronting shadow, the aspects of ourselves we often avoid acknowledging because they make us uncomfortable, yet profoundly influence how we lead and serve. Dr. Klau is the author of Developing Servant Leaders at Scale: How to Do It and Why It Matters, which explores the practical methodology he developed through years of experimentation, innovation, and leadership development practice. The book outlines how organizations can cultivate servant leaders while fostering both personal growth and collective impact. Through the Center for Courageous Wholeness, Dr. Klau offers coaching, retreats, keynote presentations, and organizational consulting, all grounded in the belief that inner and outer change are deeply interconnected. He partners with values-driven organizations, leaders, teams, and communities that are committed to confronting their shadow as they seek to serve others.  Resources: Dr. Max Klau LinkedIn Center for Courageous Wholeness LinkedIn “Developing Servant Leaders at Scale: How to Do It and Why It Matters” by Max Klau “Servant Leadership” by Robert K.

This week I'm sharing a conversation I had as a guest on the Limited Time Only podcast, hosted by Esther Stanford and Susie Riddell. It's a beautifully produced show that feels like a proper chin wag over a cup of tea, and I had such a good time talking to them.In this conversation, we go into some topics that don't always get as much space on the main podcast: what my life looked like before diagnosis, the shame that came with finally getting those answers, and the very real experience of sensory overload and limited social batteries. We also talk about how burnout can creep in quietly rather than arriving all at once, how hormones and perimenopause can amplify everything, and why decompression and downtime aren't luxuries; they're necessities.I hope you find it as useful and validating to listen to as I found it to record.In this episode, we cover:What Kate's life looked like before her ADHD diagnosis at 40, and how her daughter's struggles during the pandemic finally connected the dotsWhy the initial reaction to diagnosis is so often shame rather than relief, and how that shifts over timeSensory sensitivities, limited social batteries and why understanding these is so freeingWhy ADHD and trauma are deeply interlinked, but trauma does not cause ADHDHow fluctuating hormones and perimenopause amplify ADHD traits, and why this hits neurodivergent women harderWhat ADHD burnout actually looks and feels like when it builds slowly rather than arriving all at onceKnowing which "season" you're in and why that matters before making any big decisionsWhy decompression time is non-negotiable, not a nice-to-haveSimple daily practices: movement, outdoor time and breathwork to regulate your nervous systemLearning to say no, protect your bandwidth and stop performing for everyone elseTimestamps:00:00 - Welcome to this More Yourself episode01:00 - Introducing the Limited Time Only podcast and what this conversation covers02:58 - Kate's story: life before diagnosis and how her daughter's struggles led to both of their assessments07:34 - Why girls with ADHD get missed, and the epidemic myth08:50 - The shame that comes with diagnosis, and navigating it publicly10:33 - Labels, autism, and finding language that doesn't hold us back15:02 - Sensory sensitivities, limited social batteries and permission to protect your energy18:27 - The parent experience: protecting yourself when you're already pouring into everyone else23:14 - Hormones, perimenopause and why ADHD traits can feel amplified in midlife28:57 - Gabor Maté, trauma and ADHD: why Kate disagrees with the causation theory34:56 - Burnout, boundaries and knowing your bandwidth40:42 - The empowerment of finally knowing your limits49:50 - How to recognise which season you're in52:33 - What ADHD burnout really looks like when it creeps in slowly55:22 - Simple practices: movement, breathwork and giving yourself buffersLinks and Resources:Find my popular ADHD workshops and resources on my website here.Follow the podcast on Instagram: @adhd_womenswellbeing_podGet my book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit (also available in ebook and audiobook) hereJoin the More Yourself membership community hereListen to the Limited Time Only podcast on Spotify here and Apple hereFollow Limited Time Only on Instagram: @limitedtimeonlypodcastKate Moryoussef is a women's ADHD lifestyle and wellbeing coach and EFT practitioner who helps overwhelmed and unfulfilled newly diagnosed women with ADHD find more calm, balance, hope, health, compassion, creativity, and clarity.

In his second visit to the show, Buddhist psychologist JOE DENICHOLAS tal about the relatively low-rate of success for therapy and the reasons he believes are the cause:  from the standpoint of the therapy itself, the client and the the therapist. We talk about how therapists can create a safe environment for clients, the core beliefs clients bring into therapy and the need for therapist/client connection and a helathy seperation. We also get into the idea of mortality and the power this reality can bring to one's existence both within and outside of the therapy evironment.       JOE DENICHOLAS is a dynamic, challenging licensed therapist whose work bridges science, spirituality, and healing. With degrees in electrical engineering, business, and clinical social work, he brings a rare interdisciplinary perspective to both clinical practice and contemplative training.   For more than two decades, Joe has studied Buddhist psychology and trained with renowned meditation masters, helping individuals access deep transformation, clarity, and peace. He has guided hundreds through developing meaningful mindfulness and meditation practices. Earlier in his career, Joe contributed to the global shift toward energy-efficient lighting, earning multiple U.S. patents in integrated-circuit and semiconductor device design as an IC Design Engineer and Semiconductor Technologist.   Today, his work integrates Buddhist psychology in a secular way with modern neuroscience to relieve suffering and unlock the mind's natural capacity for wellbeing. He founded Unbreakable Inc., an organization dedicated to helping people rediscover resilience, goodness, and inner freedom through education, workshops, meditation, and therapy. In 2025, he published "Seeking Sanity:  How to Cultivate Peace, Happiness, and Wellbeing in a World Gone Mad" with Modern Wisdom Press.

What Triggers Age-Related Belly Fat? New Stem Cell Findings and a Nutrition Perspective: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses research from City of Hope (published in Science) on why belly fat increases with age even without major weight gain, emphasizing the health risks of visceral fat as an endocrine organ linked to inflammation, diabetes, heart disease, and accelerated aging. The study suggests aging activates adipocyte progenitor cells (APCs) and produces an age-specific stem cell population called committed preadipocytes (CP-As) that generate new fat cells, with experiments showing older APCs create more fat cells even when transplanted into young mice. Single-cell RNA sequencing identified greater CP-A activity in middle-aged mice and similar cells in higher numbers in middle-aged human tissue. Researchers implicate the LIFR signaling pathway and propose future therapies to block these cells, while Leyla questions root causes and argues metabolic dysfunction—insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, high carbohydrate intake, and sedentary behavior—should be addressed nutritionally rather than via a pill.
