“The Gifts That Don't Fit Under the Tree”This episode is one of the most personal ones I've recorded all year. As we close out the season, I've been reflecting on the gifts that shaped me—not the ones wrapped in bows, but the ones that stretched me, challenged me, softened me, and reminded me what really matters.Inside this conversation, I'm sharing the intangible gifts this year handed me: the kind that don't sit under a tree, the kind that require you to look at yourself honestly, and the kind that quietly redefine your priorities as an entrepreneur, parent, leader, and human.If you've been craving more meaning, more presence, or more alignment in a year that asked a lot of you… this episode is going to speak directly to your heart.In This Episode, I Cover:1. The Gift of GrowthWhy real growth isn't loud, glamorous, or Instagram-readyThe type of growth that forces you to evolve your thinking, leadership, and boundariesWhy doing less but choosing better is the most powerful shift I made this year2.

Most men aren't stuck because they lack discipline.They're stuck because they're fighting the wrong battle.In this episode of Patterns Of Power, I sit down with Niko Arapkiles, founder of Vision Expresso, to expose the real reason change doesn't last for most men: they try to fix behaviors without changing identity.Visit www.mindfulhabitmastery.com for powerful help now!We break down why willpower eventually fails, how distraction quietly destroys focus and purpose, and why you'll always lose in a fight against yourself if your identity hasn't changed.This conversation goes beyond addiction.

This isn't a theory. This isn't a warning about the future. This is happening right now, and you're probably already being fooled.I just watched 833 people comment on a fake Victor David Hanson video without a single person identifying it as AI-generated. Not one. The voice was perfect. The lip sync was flawless. The mannerisms were spot-on. Everything looked and sounded exactly like Victor David Hanson. Except it wasn't him. The only giveaway? The content style - the words coming out of his mouth weren't his talking points or rhetorical patterns.But here's the terrifying part: 833 engaged, thoughtful viewers missed it completely. And if they can be fooled, so can you. So can I. So can everyone.In this episode, I break down the current state of AI-generated fake videos, deepfakes, and synthetic media that's flooding every platform you use. We're past the point where you can trust your eyes and ears. The technology has already perfected voice cloning, facial expressions, lip sync, and visual authenticity. What hasn't been perfected yet - but is closing fast - is mimicking individual communication patterns.I'll show you exactly what to look for, how to verify content before you share it, and why the phrase "I can always tell a fake video" is dangerous thinking that makes you more vulnerable, not less.As someone with 20+ years of law enforcement experience with LAPD, I've spent my career evaluating credibility and spotting deception. And I'm telling you: this is different. This isn't about being smart or savvy. This is about systematic verification protocols that you need to build into your daily media consumption habits right now.We cover:Why the Victor David Hanson fake fooled everyoneThe money behind AI-generated content manipulationHow to teach your kids and parents to navigate thisThe wait-and-verify protocol that protects youWhy platforms won't save you from thisWhat happens when nothing can be verified anymoreThe content pattern recognition approach that actually worksPractical action steps you can implement todayWhether it's fake governor statements, fabricated president videos, or AI-generated local content targeting Santa Clarita Valley communities, you need to understand the landscape we're operating in. Companies are banking millions creating AI slop designed to exploit your psychology, grab your attention, and manipulate your beliefs.This episode gives you the tools to fight back. Not with detection technology - that's already losing the arms race.

Becoming the entrepreneur of your dreams with a business that's vision board worthy requires a completely different operating system.In this episode, I'm breaking down the two major shifts every business goes through and explaining why trying to upgrade your business with outdated software, beliefs, and methods will keep you stuck.

I'm sharing the practical framework for transitioning from "I am my business" to "I work for my business, so my business can work and support me."Key Topics Covered:Why you can't upgrade your business with outdated operating systems, beliefs, and methodsThe two major shifts in business: employee to business owner, and freelancer to company ownerHow the "sole trader mentality" keeps you trapped in trading time for moneyWhy separating yourself from your business is essential for scalingThe circular support system: how you support your business so it supports youWhy taking business decisions personally keeps you smallThe reality check: you have to do the grunt work to get the business you wantHow discomfort and pushing beyond what feels good is necessary for growthThe frameworks that solve the blind spots holding your business backTIMESTAMPS:0:00:00 - Intro: You need a completely different operating system0:00:54 - Why you can't upgrade with outdated software and beliefs0:01:38 - The two major shifts in business explained0:02:22 - Breaking free from the freelancer mindset and time-for-money trap0:03:39 - The circular support system: how you and your business support each other0:04:55 - Why separating yourself from your business is essential to scale0:07:03 - The reality check: you have to do the uncomfortable work to grow0:08:32 - The frameworks and systems that solve your business blind spots0:13:37 - Business Bang updates, price increases, and application process

In Episode 4 of The Aligned Expansion Series, I'm talking about energetic integrity in business—what it is, how we lose it, and why it matters so much for sustainable growth.Energetic integrity is about staying aligned with your values, your capacity, and your nervous system as you build your business. It's about noticing where you might be saying yes when your body is saying no, overgiving, undercharging, or pushing past your limits in the name of being helpful or “successful.”In this episode, I explore how subtle energy leaks show up as burnout, resentment, exhaustion, or a quiet dread—and how restoring energetic integrity often leads to cleaner boundaries, more potent work, and growth that feels less forced.✨ In this episode, I cover:What energetic integrity really means in a wellness-based businessCommon ways practitioners unintentionally break energetic integrityThe difference between a stretch that expands you and one that depletes youWhy you don't owe anyone access to your energyHow aligned boundaries actually support growth, not limit itThis episode is an invitation to come back into alignment—with yourself first—so your business can grow from a grounded, regulated place.If you want support building a business that honors your energy, your nervous system, and your truth, join me inside Grow a Thriving Practice → jillianfaldmo.com/workwithme

Send us a textMost of us are one decision away from giving up. We're at the breaking point, questioning if we're qualified, if our pain has purpose, if it's even worth continuing. And in that moment—when you're about to quit—everything changes. Or nothing does. It depends on what you choose next.In this life-altering episode, mental health professional Alison Lager and voice coach Matt Berthot sit down to discuss the exact moment when most people walk away from their calling. They've both been there. Alison survived her husband's suicide, childhood abuse, eating disorders, and a murder trial.

For the burnt-out parent, struggling entrepreneur, the person in crisis. It's for people who've lost people to suicide. It's for people who've thought about it themselves.Alison and Matt aren't here to tell you it gets easier. They're here to tell you it gets meaningful. And that changes everything.

Today's solo episode dives deep into the ONLY marketing strategy that truly matters heading into 2026: connection, emotion, consistency, and storytelling.Shelby pulls back the curtain on what humanizing your brand actually means — far beyond the curated aesthetics, trending audios, or the pressure to perform for the algorithm.

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I know I'm meant for more” and yet, you're stuck in the loop of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or playing small?In this episode, George rips the Band-Aid off one of the biggest lies entrepreneurs tell themselves: that our beliefs are facts. They're not. And if we don't rewrite them, they'll keep running the show. If you want to change your results, your business, your impact… It starts with one belief. And this episode gives you the blueprint to make that shift in less than 30 minutes.George guides you through a practical 4-part process to expose the limiting thoughts holding you back, embody a new empowering belief, and integrate it into your daily habits.This isn't about vision boards or empty affirmations, it's about real transformation through emotional intensity, consistent reps, and embodied practice.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why most of your beliefs would never hold up in a court of law (and why that's liberating)The exact 4-step framework: Think it → Feel it → Act it → Become itHow to identify a disempowering belief and calculate what it's really costing youWhy emotional intensity is the “missing ingredient” in affirmationsThe daily actions and rituals that lock in your identity shift Key Takeaways:✔️Beliefs aren't facts. They're just repeated thoughts with emotional charge. You can choose new ones.✔️Emotional intensity + repetition = transformation. Affirmations without feeling are just empty words.✔️Identify your current disempowering belief and ask: Is it true? What is it costing me?✔️Replace it with an empowering belief that aligns with the future you want, then act on it today.✔️Environment shapes identity. Record your new belief, speak it out loud, and surround yourself with reminders. Timestamps & Highlights:[00:00] — Welcome to Reset in 20: Episode 3 intro + belief breakdown[03:36] — Foundational 4-part framework[07:40] — Quote from OG Mandino: Why action shapes thought[10:55] — Limiting beliefs: The invisible blocks we rarely name[14:12] — 4 reflection questions to dismantle false beliefs[17:30] — Emotional intensity & repetition: The real rewiring formula[19:18] — How to write and feel your new belief[22:50] — Embodying new beliefs in your actions, environment, and daily rhythmYour Challenge This Week:If this episode sparked something, DM your new belief to George on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant and he'll personally celebrate it with you.And if you're enjoying the Reset in 20 series, share this with one friend and commit to all 7 episodes together.Book Mentioned:The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino: for embedding beliefs through repetition and emotion. Join The Alliance: The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ community for entrepreneurs building meaningful businesses through connection.Apply for 1:1 Coaching with George: Build a business aligned with your heart, not just your head.Check out upcoming live events and workshops at: https://mindofgeorge.com/retreat/

Navigating health can feel complicated and overwhelming, especially for women in midlife. Between new workout routines, supplement trends, and the constant advice we see online, it's difficult to discern what we actually need to be healthy.Deep health is not a matter of following the leader, but understanding what you–your body, your mind, and your nervous system–need to feel good. In this episode, I talk with Courtney Townley of the Grace & Grit podcast about what holistic women's health really means and how to approach it with more ease, consistency, and self-trust.We've been sold the idea that health has to do with how we look, but disease and dysfunction can come in all shapes and sizes. Health is multidimensional. Of course, it's physical, but it's also relational, environmental, and spiritual. Healing means a return to wholeness, and that only happens when you honor every part of your humanity.Health can't be attained by following a list of rules and regulations written for you; you have to learn and develop the skills to become the leader of your life and take charge of your decisions. Nobody knows your life better than you do. You know when to rest instead of pushing harder, or when to choose a morning walk and fresh air over another 5 a.m. exercise bootcamp. This self-connection is what women's health is truly about.You are in relationship with everything—people, food, movement, and your environment. Holistic women's health and healing begin with mending the most important relationship of all: the one you have with yourself. When you nurture that connection and reduce the stress that keeps you disconnected, you create space for the life you want.What you'll learn:Why health is not the absence of disease, but knowing how to care for yourself within itThe difference between superficial health and deep health—and tools to move from one to the otherHow to create consistency by honoring your needs and understanding what self-care looks like for youWhy reducing unnecessary stress is the first step toward holistic women's healthHow self-leadership and support from others are both important for your well-beingYou can read the full show notes here.About Courtney TownleyCourtney Townley is a wellness advocate, leadership coach, and passionate community-builder with over 30 years of experience helping her clients lead themselves through the health arena with more ease and grace. She is the founder of Grace & Grit and the Rumble & Rise community, where she helps midlife women strengthen their self-leadership skills, align with what truly nourishes them, and build lives rooted in purpose and connection. She also hosts the long-running Grace & Grit podcast, now in its tenth year, where she shares real, insightful conversations about what it means to live and lead well.

Through her coaching, retreats, podcast, and speaking engagements, she offers practical strategies for fostering trust, building resilience, and cultivating spaces where individuals and communities can thrive. Her forthcoming book, The Consistency Code (releasing November 2025), offers a simple but powerful framework to help women amplify their health and happiness by aligning their lives with what truly matters.Website: www.graceandgrit.comInstagram:

In this episode of the Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher Podcast, host Maurice Harker dives into one of Satan's most subtle but powerful tactics: the war between remembering and forgetting. Why is it so hard to remember spiritual impressions, goals, and revelations—even when we want to?

From ditching the guilt to redefining self-care as something deeper than bubble baths, they unpack how modeling self-respect and boundaries shapes not just your wellbeing—but your kids' too.

Have you ever wondered why certain conversations explode or why being told what to do can send you straight back into old emotions you thought you'd outgrown?In this episode of Energy Works, we explore the hidden landscape of triggers, those moments when something small cracks open something big inside us. What if these reactions weren't signs of failure but invitations to clear energies we've been carrying since childhood or even long before?Together, we journey through the chakras, the aura, and the inner child to uncover how arguments, overwhelm, and emotional tension reveal where energy has become stagnant. We look at how early experiences, generational wounds, and patterns of powerlessness can still shape our reactions today often without us realizing it.This episode is a space to understand why certain themes repeat, why some discussions never resolve, and why holiday seasons can press so many emotional buttons. Most importantly, it's an invitation to meet these moments not with shame or frustration, but with curiosity, compassion, and healing. What You'll ExperienceA gentle exploration of what your triggers are trying to show youWhy arguments often point to blocked or stagnant energyHow childhood wounds - powerlessness, being dismissed, not being heard — echo into adulthoodHidden patterns in the aura, chakras, and energetic gridThe impact of generational trauma from both maternal and paternal linesHow hypervigilance and “always being on alert” exhaust the adrenalsEmotional clarity through oils like Neroli and Elevation (Joyful Blend)Tools to shift from reactivity into grounded presence, compassion, and choiceWays to reconnect with your inner child and rewrite old emotional scripts Key Affirmations to Support You“It's okay for me to have faith in things I cannot see.”“I am worthy of divine love and protection.”“I'm secure with what I say.”“My family and I work together for our highest good.”“I always have a choice.”“Love opens the door for me to feel whole and complete.”Maybe the conflict itself isn't the issue maybe it's the doorway.This episode offers a soft place to recognize the deeper layers within your reactions not to judge them but to understand them. Because healing often begins in the moments when we choose to pause, breathe, and finally hear what our energy and our body sometimes has been holding for years.+ Join my free Facebook group+ Follow me on Instagram+ For one on one support click here to book a clarity call: https://calendly.com/tanyaormsby+ Get on the The Energy Workz list click here.

In this deeply heartfelt episode of The Circle of Hope, I reconnect with one of my favorite coaching partners, Donald Stup, for an intimate, live conversation about navigating life after a life-changing health diagnosis. Donald bravely shares his journey from discovering a tumor on his spinal cord to adapting to significant shifts in mobility—including time spent in a wheelchair and recovery from a broken hip. Our discussion goes far beyond medical procedures as Donald opens up about the real, daily mind games, fluctuating emotions, and the process of acceptance he's faced along the way.Throughout our talk, Donald and I explore the vital role that relationships play in helping us grow and thrive during adversity. He reflects on the invaluable support provided by his wife, faith, friends, and even unexpected acts of kindness from strangers. We dig into how simply being present and truly listening can be more transformative than any physical assistance. Our conversation also touches on the importance of workplace and spiritual support, and the unique perspective Donald brings as a coach, both giving and receiving guidance. Listeners will walk away inspired by Donald's resilience and the actionable ways we can all build a stronger circle of hope around ourselves and each other.Watch This If:You or a loved one is navigating a major health challenge or disabilityYou want to deepen the quality of support you offer othersYou're struggling to ask for or accept helpYou're interested in the intersection of faith, coaching, and personal growthYou work in healthcare, coaching, or support roles and want insight on truly impactful connectionEpisode Highlights:[00:03:36] Donald shares his diagnosis and the moment everything changed after spinal surgery[00:06:01] Discussing the tremendous impact of his wife's support and the different circles of trust[00:14:54] What true listening looks like—Donald's experience with a neuro physical therapist[00:23:16] The “compassion with a command” moment: an unforgettable act of kindness from a stranger during travel[00:26:40] Navigating workplace accommodations and how colleagues step up with empathy[00:40:36] Donald's reflections on faith, spirituality, and finding greater peace through acceptance[00:56:12] Advice for others navigating a new diagnosis or isolating situation—why reaching out mattersQuotes to Remember:“It was compassion with a command.

Our good girl programming is built on the certainty that if we follow the rules and keep everyone happy, we'll belong. But what happens when stepping into deeper love and connection also means stepping into the uncertainty that comes with unraveling that conditioning? In this episode, I talk with Meagan Skidmore, Life Transformation Coach and author of TransparentSEE: How I Learned to SEE through My Journey as a Parent of a Transgender Kiddo. We explore what it means to trust your inner knowing, even when it leads you down an unfamiliar path, and how doing so can radically transform your relationships with others and with yourself. Here's what we cover:How growing up in the LDS faith shaped Meagan's sense of belongingThe pain of feeling forced to choose between two things that are meaningful to youWhy slowing can provide you with the patience and openness needed to make space for uncertaintyThe importance of creating safe spaces where you can explore and questionsWhy the loss of certainty can be a doorway to a new version of yourself, your family, and your faithMeagan Skidmore is a Life Transformation Coach who empowers her clients to navigate life transitions and step into their fullest potential. Life transitions have a way of presenting the opportunity to reset our identity, reassess our values, and process emotions—becoming the witnessing observer of our experiences instead of letting them define us. Meagan helps people awaken to their truth, crush the boxes that confine them, and step boldly into their power, stop lying to themselves and live authentically and unapologetically.

In a coaching landscape where there's no shortage of ways to become certified, what makes one program stand out from the rest? It's no secret–you can easily go online, attend any workshop, and walk away with a seal of approval. But a comprehensive, holistic program goes far beyond earning the title of a coach. It invites you into true life mastery—first for yourself, and then for the clients and communities you serve.In this episode, we take a deeper look into the heart of Master Coach Training. I'll talk about what it means to be a Master Coach, how the program will be structured, and what it means for you as an individual. Even if you aren't a coach–or you're not yet sure if coaching is the right path for you–this episode, and maybe even a Master Coach certification, will benefit you and the life you want to create.So many of us move through life checking boxes, believing that if we follow a precise plan we'll arrive at happiness and fulfillment. Then, at some point along the way, we face situations and challenges that wake us up to the truth: our plan can't prepare us for everything life brings. These moments can wake us up in powerful ways, calling us to expand beyond the roadmap we've constructed and into a deeper alignment with our values and purpose. This is why my Master Coach certification program is first and foremost about mastering self, and why I believe this work can serve anyone on their journey to life mastery.A Master Coach certification is an opportunity to lean in and understand yourself on a deeper level. Through this holistic coaching approach, you'll cultivate the self-connection that transforms every part of your life. It's truly the difference between surviving and leading your life, and I can't wait to share what's possible when you say yes to your own mastery.What you'll learn:Why nervous system awareness is foundational to both holistic coaching and life masteryHow shifting your patterns and habits becomes easier when you develop a deeper understanding of themThe importance of personalized alignment when creating a plan of action that works for youWhy a holistic coaching approach is so powerful professionally and personallyHow the two-track design of Master Coach Training meets you exactly where you are in your journeyYou can read the full show notes here.Connect with Molly ClaireJoin me on October 30th, 2025 for a live workshop on the productivity trap.

Two people can live through the same experience—a breakup, a job loss, or a childhood wound—and walk away with entirely different realities because of the story they tell about it. In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson explores how your inner narrative shapes both your mindset and your nervous system, and how stories can become survival codes that keep you stuck. She shares three powerful ways to shift your story through your lens, your language, and your nervous system state, offering simple, compassionate tools to help you rewrite your narrative from a place of safety, growth, and self-compassion.We'll explore:How shifting your lens changes the meaning of your storyThe power of words and how to choose ones that free youWhy “story follows state” and the role of regulationSimple tools to calm your body before rewriting your storyChanging your story expands safety and possibility, not denialLINKS AND RESOURCES:

Last week we talked about how to give feedback that actually lands. This week, we're flipping it. Are you getting the kind of feedback that helps you grow? And more importantly, are you using it?The higher you go in your career, the harder it gets to hear the truth. People assume you've got it figured out. They hold back.
