  • In this episode of the Buckets of Change podcast, Nick connects with west coaster Dr. Catherine Darlley to delve into the nuances of sleep, and its profound impact on personal and professional change. With a focus on naturopathic sleep medicine, Dr. Darling offers her expertise on how to harness natural remedies for better sleep, and why establishing a reliable routine is crucial for our circadian rhythm.

    Dr. Darliey shares insightful strategies on how to build an effective sleep routine, emphasizing the significance of light exposure throughout the day and maintaining a consistent wake-up time. She sheds light on common sleep disorder misconceptions, the implications of insufficient sleep, and the controversial prevalence of melatonin supplements. Whether you're tackling life changes or seeking to improve your sleep hygiene, this episode will equip you with practical tools and all the things about sleep we take for granted

    Key Takeaways:

    Sleep disorders are varied and complex, with 58 types identified, but primary care physicians receive minimal training in sleep medicine.

    A strong circadian rhythm is essential for feeling alert during the day and achieving deep sleep at night. It can be fostered through routine exposure to natural light during the day and maintaining dim light conditions in the evening.

    Each stage of sleep serves a significant purpose -- from learning and memory consolidation to physical body recovery and emotional regulation.

    Over-the-counter sleep aids, particularly melatonin supplements, should be approached with caution as they vary in dosage, purity, and effectiveness.

    Naps can be beneficial if timed correctly. Aim for either a 30-minute power nap or a full 90-minute sleep cycle to avoid grogginess.

  • In episode 21 of the Buckets of Change podcast, Nick tackles the overarching theme of change, particularly the challenges and mindset shifts required to overcome adversity and unforeseen events in one’s personal and professional life. As a seasoned entrepreneur and change advocate, Nick imparts his first-hand experiences and valuable life lessons that resonate with anyone on the path to self-improvement and career transformation.

    Nick draws a vivid parallel between his previous HR career, where confidence and competence reigned, and his current painting business, characterized by continuous learning. The episode emphasizes the importance of resilience, responding to challenges, and the danger of seeking pity as a form of external validation and adapting positively to change rather than feeling victimized by circumstances. Things don't happen "to us", they just happen.

    Key Takeaways:

    Change is inevitable, and how we respond to it is crucial in determining our resilience and future success.

    Seeking pity or external validation can hinder personal growth and happiness levels, leading to a victim mentality.

    Adopting a proactive mindset by shifting from "why is this happening to me?" to "this happened, now how will I respond?" is essential for effective action and personal agency.

    Learning from mistakes is an integral part of any career change or personal development journey, especially when starting anew in an unfamiliar industry.

  • In the latest enlightening episode of the Buckets of Change podcast, host Nick Goblirsch takes listeners on an intimate journey through the nuances of personal and professional transformation. Opening up about his recent hiatus from recording the podcast to reassess and see how the journey is going, Nick also extends a hand to his audience, offering to help anyone looking to embark on their change journey with a complimentary conversation. Throughout the episode, the conversation delves deep into the heart of change - embracing it, maneuvering through it, and reflecting upon the growth it incurs.

    Nick unfolds a recent weekend away with his wife Megan that ended with a visit to the cemetary and the chore of cleaning his mother and grandmother's tombstone, drawing parallels to the transformative power of reflection and personal evolution. He uses this anecdote to punctuate the inevitable progress and adaptation that life exudes, urging listeners to step back and appreciate their metamorphosis over time. By emphasizing the process from before to after, he instills optimism and the belief that change, though gradual, leads to manifest improvements and life learnings.

    Key Takeaways: Personal growth and transformation require time, effort, and an openness to new possibilities. Taking a break can provide the necessary space to assess one's direction and make meaningful changes. Reflection on past changes helps create an awareness of the progress made and potentiates future growth.

  • In this thought-provoking episode of the Buckets of Change podcast, host Nick Goblirsch tackles the complex theme of "fear of missing out" or FOMO, and its deep-seated roots in our upbringing and societal expectations. The conversation navigates through the pressures of achievement culture and its potentially toxic repercussions on both adults and children. By weaving personal anecdotes with insights from the book "Never Enough" by Jennifer Brehenny Wallace, Nick eloquently stirs a dialogue about parenting, personal growth, and the courage to embrace change at any stage of life.

    Nick reflects on his own childhood and the lack of pressure to excel in sports or academics, contrasting it with today's high-stakes environment where parents often push their children towards achieving at all costs. The episode delves into the implications such pressure can have on long-term happiness and the ability to make life changes. Additionally, Nick shares his personal experiences with career transitions and social settings, drawing connections between past conditioning and present decisions.

    Key Takeaways: The fear of missing out (FOMO) is often a product of our childhood experiences and societal pressures to conform to certain paths of success. An overemphasis on achievement from a young age may lead to a fixation on external validation and comparisons in adulthood. A balanced approach to parenting encourages self-discovery and the realization that talent and interests can evolve over time. Personal fulfillment and the ability to adapt to changes are heavily influenced by our early life conditioning and the expectations set by our upbringing. It's never too late to reconsider one’s path, aim for a career transition, or seek new experiences, irrespective of past conditioning.

  • In this thought-provoking episode of the 'Buckets of Change' podcast, host Nick Goblirsch delves into the profound topic of the value we assign to our time and the choices we make daily. Kicking off the New Year of 2024, Nick openly shares his reflections on personal growth, career transitions, and the importance of spending our finite time on what truly matters.

    In particular, Nick revisits his past choices, evaluating the worth of the time he allocated to his work versus family and recognizing missed opportunities. He encourages listeners to ponder the fulfillment they derive from their careers and to reassess whether their time is gratifying not only in financial terms but also in personal happiness and presence with loved ones. Generating an atmosphere of contemplation, this episode is a compelling nudge to contemplate the worth we place on different aspects of our lives.

    Key Takeaways: Time is a finite resource and how we choose to spend it should bring fulfillment, joy, and presence with the important people in our lives. Reflecting on past career choices can provide insights into the value we may (or may not) have placed on our time and the potential need for change. It's important to reevaluate the company we keep, as spending time with negative or unproductive individuals can affect our own outlook and life choices. Assigning a dollar amount to time in a professional setting, as Nick does with painting estimates, requires considering the value provided to the client beyond just financial cost. The 'Buckets of Change' assessment is mentioned as a resource for listeners in similar situations, aiming to help them make more conscious and fulfilling career choices.

  • In this episode of the Buckets of Change podcast, host Nick Goblirsch embarks on a reflective journey examining the difference between adopting 'winners' and 'losers' labels and embracing the realities of 'winning' and 'losing.' This powerful discourse aims to dismantle the societal norms that categorize individuals based on their perceived success or failure. Nick shares personal anecdotes from his life, especially the impact of his father's disappointment, to illustrate how harmful these labels can be and how they can affect decision-making and risk-taking.

    Throughout the episode, Nick delves into the importance of understanding that wins and losses are moments in time, not definitive labels. By sharing his experiences as an entrepreneur and parent, Goblirsch invites listeners to celebrate their achievements, learn from their losses, and remove self-imposed judgments that can stall personal growth and satisfaction. This message resonates deeply with anyone at a crossroads, contemplating significant career changes or life pivots.

    Key Takeaways: Recognize that 'winning' and 'losing' are temporary states, not permanent labels. Avoid labeling people (including oneself) as 'winners' or 'losers,' as it can have long-term damaging effects on self-perception and relationships. Celebrate your wins, and rather than self-judging, see your losses as an opportunity for learning and growth. Reflect on the past, learn from both your wins and losses, and apply those learnings to make better decisions in the future. Look forward to the next episode where Nick's wife, Megan, will join him to discuss the impacts of career changes on relationships.

  • Welcome to the Buckets of Change podcast, where we explore the transformative power of making career and life change. I am your host Nick Goblirsch and in this episode I share a recent event my daughter, Abby, had to respond to that some adults avoid, unfortunately. Telling someone news that they dont want to here, especially if that news creates uncontrollable change for others. I emphasize the importance of embracing change that is out of our control AND does not go as planned while developing the skills to respond effectively when faced with unexpected situations in the future. I then dive into the the concept of "the shouldas" and how they can hinder our ability to adapt to change when fear and anxiety take over unexpectedly and remove us from the present. The philosophy that things happen to us for a reason can mean so much more if we realize that how we understand and grasp the ways we respond to what happens can prepare us for an easier path down the road.

    Key Takeaways:

    Change is inevitable and often beyond our control. It is important to develop the skills to respond effectively when faced with unexpected situations. The way we respond to change is within our control. Embracing change and learning from it can lead to personal growth and resilience. "Shouldas" can prevent us from fully embracing change. Instead of dwelling on what should have happened, focus on how to respond to the current situation. Change provides an opportunity to learn and develop new skills. Each experience with change prepares us for future challenges.

He addresses the fears and uncertainties that accompany leaving the comfort zone and provides motivational insights on taking charge of one's professional destiny.

    Nick candidly discusses the internal and external challenges he faced when he decided to upend his career to pursue something more fulfilling.

Furthermore, Nick reflects on the societal norms that often bind people to careers they excel in but may not necessarily enjoy, and how taking calculated risks can lead to personal growth and happiness. Tune into this episode to learn about risk-taking, overcoming the fear of change, and finding joy in new endeavors.

    Key Takeaways: Embracing change and taking risks can be a path to personal fulfillment and present living. Being successful at something does not mean you must continue doing it forever if it no longer brings joy. Change is not only about oneself but also affects those around us, who may project their insecurities or worries. It is important to take responsibility for the outcomes of the risks we take, learn from mistakes, and adjust accordingly. Courageously stepping out of one's comfort zone and societal expectations can lead to improved self-esteem and confidence.
