Send us a textIs "success" costing you your sanity, your health or your joy?In this powerful episode, I sit down with mental health advocate and entrepreneur LaKisha Mosley for a raw, real, and refreshingly honest conversation about what it actually looks like to prioritize your wellbeing while building a business. LaKisha knows firsthand what happens when we ignore the warning signs — because she's been there: running a business, raising a family, checking all the boxes… and silently unraveling behind the scenes.Now, she's on a mission to help other women entrepreneurs stop “swapping their sanity for success.” This conversation is your permission slip to do things differently - and your roadmap for how.In this episode, we cover:The difference between mental health and mental illness (and why both matter in business)Why women entrepreneurs are especially vulnerable to high-functioning depression and burnoutHow protecting your peace gives you a strategic edge in businessHow to normalize asking for help - especially if you've been conditioned not toWhy rest isn't lazy, and slowing down isn't quittingIf you've ever felt like the weight of your business is crushing you, this episode is a reminder that your wellbeing is not optional. It's foundational. And as LaKisha says, "Protect your peace like it's your profit — because it is."Links and References:If you want to grow your business in a way that feels good (and doesn't cause burnout!) join us at our next PWR Virtual Speed Networking Event!For even deeper connections, better support and faster business growth, check out the  Powerful Women Rising Business Growth Community!If you're ready to prioritize your wellbeing as a business investment, follow Lakisha on Instagram @LakishaMMosley or visit her website to download her mental health crisis plan.Support the showConnect with Your Host!Melissa Snow is a Business Relationship Strategist dedicated to empowering women in entrepreneurship.

A few months back, Rian Johnson said he hopes the next Knives Out movie is in theaters for as long as possible. Netflix released that number this week and it probably is not what Johnson was hoping for. The Long Walk comes out this month and they have a real cool marketing idea. It is too bad that it is a little too much for public consumption.Your Host has one of those guilty pleasure premises that is impossible to resist. Four friends go to sleep (not by choice) and wake up to find themselves chained to a wall. A mysterious person stands in front of them and lets them know they are about to play a game for their lives. What follows is a series of deadly challenges in which it becomes clear there can only be one winner.There is not much more to it than that. It gets gory, eyes get stabbed, people die. And then after about an hour of this, Your Host decides it is time to deliver a message. And it is not just any old statement. They tackle one of the biggies. It is one of the clumsiest and most confusing things we have seen this year.Until Dawn is an awesome video game. It is scary, engaging, and most importantly, fun. We have been interested in seeing the adaptation. And unlike a lot of other gamers, we were not turned away from the fact it tells an original story. If anything, that makes it even more attractive.When we say “original story”, we do not mean it does things never done before. As a matter of fact, one of the things Until Dawn does is play with familiar horror tropes. It is a mixed bag that does a lot more right than wrong. Great kills, but not the best writing, for example. The end result is a flawed movie that is a lot of fun. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

A self-described “busyness addict in recovery,” Peggy shares her personal wake-up calls, from a stress-induced heart attack to accidentally eating cat food in a haze of distraction, and how those moments pushed her to develop her Busy Busting Framework.This episode is for anyone who has ever worn “busy” like a badge of honor, felt guilty about slowing down, or wondered how to reclaim time for what truly matters. Peggy shows us that freedom and joy are found not in doing more, but in doing less—intentionally.

Your absolute Arch Bishop of this enterprise is cracked over the passing of Ozzy Osbourne just weeks after his beautiful last performance. Two weeks ago I blasted a 90 minute tribute to Ozzy and his band mates of Black Sabbath. A band that has made my life better for going on 10 years now, since I fell in love with their sound in my early 20's. Highlights of this episode would be the awesome 45 copy of Mama, I'm Coming Home. The song that was played on everyone's Ozzy IG tribute. Other highlights for me would be Yungblud's fantastic rendition of Changes with the Birmingham crowd, Marvin Gaye live on 45 is incredible and me personally, I'm a sucker for chopped and screwed. The Drake chopped and slopped portion wasn't half bad. Thank you, as always, for being here. I'll try not to be such a depressed hump on a log next eppy.Your Host with the Most,DJ Witwicka Juan Don RIP OZZY

Judy Henderson and Jimmy Soni join us for a deeply moving conversation about resilience, forgiveness, and hope in the face of injustice.

Alongside Jimmy, her co-author and champion, they share how hope can be actively created, bitterness overcome, and the power of choosing to be better, not bitter.Judy's story is a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure and thrive despite the darkest circumstances. Together, Judy and Jimmy illuminate the personal practices, family bonds, and daily choices that fueled her fight for freedom and her mission to reform the justice system.

No planned rhyme or reason in this installment, just what I happened to want to hear when I got back from my road trip. A beautiful weekend, with my brother and his wife birthing their baby girl, I became an uncle. Life is beautiful people. Jam this episode, listen to the birds chirp, call somebody cool, eat some fruit that you put in the fridge earlier. Maybe even make your way down to a Buffalo Wild Wings establishment and absolutely delete a dozen dry rub lemon pepper wings. Whatever keeps you from going under. Until next time, I remain a super sick internet disc jockey slightly west of the Rio Grande. Your Host with the Most,Uncle Witwicky

Welcome to Big Pile of Black Sabbath, a tribute to the patriarchs of heavy metal. Ozzy Osbourne, Geezer Butler, Bill Ward and Tony Iommi played their final show together last week and it did not disappoint. From the special guest surprises, to Sabbath's last performance, I was happy to be a fan. TOOL performed Hand of Doom earlier in the day. To hear Danny Carey blast a Sabbath song was wicked hot. Jason Momoa led a mosh pit. I've always loved Iommi, but Geezer Butler really cracked me with that last performance.I've never heard or imagined War Pigs played like that. Unbelievable. The underground icing on the cake in this episode was me finding a $100 plus record in a $2 crate and immediately knowing it shouldn't have been in there. Millions of things I still don't know in this realm, but I'm getting stronger like Charlie in the bush.  I hope someone out there enjoyed it, thank you for being here. Until next week.. Your Host with the Most,DJ Witwicky

From holding our breath when strangers passed by to the fear of unknowingly infecting loved ones, Michele gives voice to our collective anxiety, love, loss, and resilience.

Yep, in this episode, I actually had a full-on conversation with ChatGPT to find out if AI could pull it off as a podcast partner. We cover a lot — from what a podcast even is (seriously, I told ChatGPT to pretend it didn't know), to how indie podcasters like us can use AI tools to plan, edit, organize, and even improve our show's workflow. You'll hear what worked, what didn't, and why I think AI still has a long way to go before it can totally replace that real human connection — but man, it's getting close.

Starting off with the super sick Jai Paul mashup with Nelly Furtado and Phil Collins. I always love that Close To You mash but come on now. The Jai Paul Crush mash is stuuuupid. The universe is on my side with the NPR E-40 drop. Holy Schmokes. Buddy knocked it out of the park too. Those songs are extremely difficult to perform with a live jazz band. Kudos to E-40 for that one. As always, thank you for choosing to be with the illest internet disc jockey west of the Rio Grande. Until next time..Your Host with the Most,DJ Witwicka Juan Don

This week alone, I imagine I've spent around 4-5 hours looking through crates in record stores.. and in other news, for the first time seriously inquired about playing records in a huge record store in person for shoppers and passers-by. Sent the email so we'll see what happens. I was geeked to find the original single of Jump Around from '92, the official tip-off song of my beloved Carolina Tar Heels. That greatest hits album from Little River Band didn't disappoint either. What a slapper. Really went to the moon when I found that E-40 record in the cheap LP's pile. Come on now. How about that bass registration from A Milli on wax. Holy smokes. Intermished it all with the Mulan song? Come on guys. Leave me alone. This is fantastic stuff here if I may say so myself. About to finish a doodle on the iPad now for the next shirt drop on www.coffeestainclothing.com I visited my local coffee shop today, like I do everyday, but today I showed up bearing gifts. A few Sheep Tees to hand out to the baristas from their favorite regular..
