We’ve been taught everything except how to be human. In a world obsessed with output, Human School is where we study what happens within. This podcast was born from a journal entry during a breakdown. A reminder that struggle isn’t weakness - it’s instruction. Human School reframes pain as purpose, productivity as presence, and leadership as inner clarity. We’re building the education we never got. Through stories, tools, and raw conversations, we help people stop performing their lives–and start participating in them. Welcome to Human School.

    Dr. Jeffrey Balser: How Great Leaders Handle Hard Things

    If this conversation moves you, Onsite might be the nextstep. Their immersive workshops are where people go to stop performing and start doing the real work. Visit experienceonsite.com or call 1(800) 341-7432 to find the experience best for you.   What if the grief you buried as a teenager becomes the force that makes you human enough to lead thousands?   What if the greatest leadership lessons come not from aboardroom, but from a bedside?   Dr. Jeffrey Balser is the CEO and President of VanderbiltUniversity Medical Center, one of the most respected academic medical institutions in the world with 45,000 employees and over a billion dollars in annual community benefit. But beneath the title is a man who spent a lifetime learning what most leaders never slow down long enough to figure out: that the grief you don't deal with follows you into the boardroom, that the skills you build in crisis belong just as much at home, and that the most important thing you lead may not be on your org chart.   In this conversation, Miles and Jeff move between thepersonal and professional, with the ease of two people who have spent years paying attention. They talk about losing a mother to cancer at sixteen, how he chose the wrong path in college, and what it cost to walk out of one room where a patient didn't survive and into the next where someone needed him at full capacity. They talk about the Saturday email that confirmed the COVID vaccine worked, how his wife is to credit for Melinda keeping Nashville's parks open during the city shutdown, and why he's had the same executive coach for 25 years. What emerges in this conversation is a portrait of a man leading one of America's great institutions not by having all the answers, but by staying honest about how much he still has to learn.   In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Turn Personal Tragedy Into Emotional Resilience That LastsHow to Lead Tens of Thousands Without Losing the Human in the RoomHow to Use the "Weekend Rule" to Build a CultureWhere People Like Each OtherHow to Bring Work Home Without Destroying What's Waiting for You ThereHow to Emotionally Regulate the Way ICU Doctors Are Trained ToHow to Clean Out the Parking Lot Before It Runs Your LifeHow to Focus on the Middle Third When Unpopular Decisions Make You a TargetHow to Communicate Through Crisis in a Way That Builds TrustHow to Think About AI in Healthcare Without Losing WhatMakes Medicine HumanHow to Know When Your Most Important Role Isn't on YourBusiness Card  Follow Human School: YouTube - Human School Podcast Instagram - @humanschoolofficial Threads - @humanschoolofficial TikTok - @humanschoolofficial What We Discuss: 00:00:00 – Meet Dr. Jeffery Balser 00:03:32 – Backing Into Medicine Through Math andEngineering 00:05:54 – Losing His Mother at 16 and a Surprising Mentor 00:10:37 – How Early Grief Taught Him to Handle Hard Things 00:14:27 – Professions Don’t Stay at the Door 00:20:53 – How Nashville's Parks Stayed Open in COVID 00:23:19 – Leaving Johns Hopkins When His Gut Said Stop 00:28:28 – Why Admin Rewards Take Longer but Run Deeper 00:31:30 – What People Say Right Before Dangerous Surgery 00:34:55 – The Medical Training Every Leader Needs: The ParkingLot 00:44:00 – Having the Same Executive Coach for 25 Years 00:48:50 – Empathy Is a Two-Way Street 00:50:57 – Leading 45,000: The Only Thing That Scales Is WhoYou Recruit 00:54:53 – The Weekend Rule That Transformed Vanderbilt'sCulture 00:59:20 – The Tension of Scaling & Culture 01:04:00 – Communication is Critical 01:07:30 – Leading Tennessee Through COVID 01:13:30 – What COVID Taught Us 01:15:09 – The Saturday Email He’ll Never Forget 01:19:45 – The Role of Medical Services in Overall Health 01:27:29 – AI Saved a Life Before Surgery 01:34:07 – Where Leaders Should Aim Their Energy 01:46:10 – What 40 Years of Leadership Taught Him AboutBeing a Father 01:53:48 – What Matters Most When the Statue's Just for theBirds

    Bear Rinehart: The Long Surrender to Freedom

    Spend a few days getting honest, going deeper, and walking out lighter at Onsite. Visit ⁠experienceonsite.com⁠ to learn more or call 1-800-341-7432 to find the best experience for your story. Have you ever carried shame so long it started to weigh more than the life you were living? What if surrender isn't giving up, but the one move that sets everything free? Bear Rinehart is the frontman and voice of NEEDTOBREATHE — one of the most distinctive vocalists of his generation, whosesongs have filled arenas for two decades. But beneath the anthems is a man who spent years growing into what the world saw as a rock-and-roll frontman. As a preacher’s kid with social anxiety, a survivor of childhood trauma, and an artist who learned early that revealing too much could cost you everything, Bear has carried more than most people would guess from the stage. In this conversation, Miles and Bear share stories about shame, recovery, faith, fatherhood, and what it costs to finally step fully into who you are. What emerges is a portrait of two men in the middle of their own ongoing surrender, finding out in real time how much they have in common. That surrender became NEEDTOBREATHE’s newest project — The Long Surrender — the most personal record yet to the band, written by Bear in the early mornings, recorded in first takes, and built around the one lesson Bear keeps coming back to: that freedom isn't found by holding it together. It's found the moment you stop and let others into your healing.   In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Recognize When Shame Is Masquerading as StrengthHow to Tell the Truth When You Fear Losing the RelationshipHow Surrender Becomes a Daily Practice, Not a One-Time EventHow to Create From Your Real StoryHow to Repair With Your Kids Before the Moment PassesHow to Know When Something You've Made Is True Enough to ReleaseHow to Build a Community That Goes DeeperHow to Use Influence for Impact Without Losing YourselfHow to Say Grateful 20 Years In When the World Wants More Follow Human School: YouTube - ⁠Human School Podcast⁠ Instagram - ⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠ Threads - ⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠ TikTok - ⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠   What We Discuss: 00:00:00 – Meet Bear Rinehart of NEEDTOBREATHE 00:05:40 – “Do You Feel Known?” Bear's Honest Answer 00:06:42 – Growing Up a Preacher's Kid with Social Anxiety 00:12:13 – Shame, the Church, and a Standard Nobody Could Meet 00:14:17 – Recovery, Rethinking, and the Freedom of Powerlessness 00:20:33 – What It Took to Finally Come Clean 00:21:53 – Childhood Trauma: Why Everyone Kept It Quiet and What That Cost 00:34:42 – Parenting Lessons From Their Kids 00:40:15 – The Long Surrender: How the Song and Album Broke Open 00:50:15 – How a Red Clay Strays Session Accidentally Led to an Album 00:59:32 – The Night Before Long Surrender 01:02:54 – Being Married to a Therapist 01:06:57 – Why Deep Adult Friendships Are Rare and Worth Fighting For 01:12:19 – A Deep Passion for Charity 01:19:58 – Bear, The Athlete 01:27:55 – From Club Rooms to Red Rocks 01:30:50 – Bear's Musical Inspirations 01:40:14 – Bear's Pre-Show Ritual & Meeting Springsteen 01:42:50 – The Hope Beyond the Music

Visit ⁠experienceonsite.com⁠ or call 1-800-341-7432. Have you ever been so buried in survival that you couldn't feel your own worth? What if everything you survived was quietly shaping you into exactly the person someone else needs? Kathleen Murphy, M.A., LMFT, LPC, is one of the most respected trauma clinicians in the field. Before that, she was homeless, addicted, and living on the streets with a one-year-old daughter, cycling through fourteen treatment programs before her life changed. She opens up about her childhood trauma and how it stuck with her, growing up as "a sin" in her mother's eyes, and what it felt like to be "symbolically annihilated." She reveals how Viktor Frankl’s book, a newspaper found on the street, and a shelter bed that arrived two weeks instead of six months later changed everything — and how those experiences became the foundation for the way she teaches today. She goes deep on why our hearts are like music, how we tune each other back to the key of life, and what it really means to stop arguing with reality. In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Find Your "Heart Home" and Why It Changes Everything How Suffering Becomes Your Greatest Gift to Others How to Stop Arguing With Reality and What Changes When You Do How to Tell the Difference Between a Boundary and Reaching Your Limit How Borrowing Someone's Eyes Dissolves Conflict Without Losing Your Voice How to Tune Your Heart Back to the Key of Life How to Help Someone Without Giving Advice How to Wake Up From a Trance of Unworthiness How to Hear Someone New Even If They've Told You the Same Thing Before How to Let Your Mess Become Your Message Follow Human School: YouTube - ⁠⁠Human School Podcast⁠⁠ Instagram - ⁠⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠⁠ Threads - ⁠⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠⁠ TikTok - ⁠⁠@humanschoolofficial⁠ For anyone who missed it or wants a replay, this episode is back in your feed!

A simple conversation can be the first step toward livingmore fully.What if the music you've been making your whole life was actually the therapy you never knew you needed? What if chasing someone else's version of success is the very thing keeping you from discovering who you actually are? Hunter Hayes has been on stages since he was a toddler. He earned Grammy nominations before most people have figured out what they want to do with their lives. He toured with Taylor Swift, scored radio hits, and built the kind of career that looks flawless from the outside. But behind all of it was a kid whofelt deeply lonely, who learned early that love and acceptance were things you earned by performing, and who spent years chasing a version of success that someone else had defined for him. In this episode, Hunter goes into the emotional terrain behind his music: the relationship between performance and belonging, the cost of tying your identity to external validation from the time you're five years old, and what it feels like when early success levels off and you must decide who you are. Hereveals how years of therapy, intensive work, and learning to understand his brain finally gave him permission to stop performing his life and start participating in it. He shares the moment that songwriting stopped being about writing hits and became therapy set to a melody. What makes this conversation unique is that Hunter and Miles don't just talk about the destination, they walk through the actual work. This is a conversation about what it looks like to come back to yourself after years of giving yourself away and how creativity, when it's rooted in honesty rather than performance, can become the most powerful tool for healing you've ever had.

    Learn more about Onsite and Milestones at experienceonsite.com or call 1-800-341-7432. A simple conversation can be the first step toward living more fully. What if the wounds you can't name are doing more damage than the ones you can? What if healing doesn't happen in a sterile office, but around a campfire, in a community, or on a paddleboard? Dr. Neil Bomar, Vice President of Medical Services at Milestones, is not your typical psychiatrist. He's a man who spent years trying to fit inside the box of Western medicine before realizing the box wasn't right for him. He traded the "treat 'em and street 'em" model of traditional medicine for a radically human approach to psychiatry. An approach that blends neuroscience, experiential therapy, and the healing power of nature and genuine connection.   In this conversation, Dr. Bomar opens up about his own "death day," the childhood moment that quietly rewired how he moved through the world. He shares what it was like to discover, well into his career, that his infectious enthusiasm and relentless positivity were, in part, a defense mechanism against pain. He goes deep into the surreal Thanksgiving when a bullet fell from the sky, struck him in the nose, and lodged in his cheek. And why, even then, his developmental wounding left the deeper mark.   Miles and Dr. Bomar explore the dangerous myth that you must choose between brokenness and resilience, the subtle harm of toxic positivity, and why leading with your highlight reel is the fastest way to kill real intimacy. They introduce frameworks like "death days," event trauma versus developmental wounding, and angel work, making complex psychological concepts feel like something you'd hear from a trusted friend.   In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Tell the Difference Between Event Trauma and Developmental Wounding How to Stop Weaponizing Your Story and Start Letting It Work For You How to Recognize Your "Death Day" How Toxic Positivity Can Be Just as Damaging as Toxic Negativity How Your Deepest Wound Is Often the Hidden Root of Your Greatest Strength How to Identify the "Angels" in Your StoryHow to Know When You've Crossed from Doing the Work into Over-Identifying with Your Pain How to Choose Being Relational Over Being Right in Every Room You Enter How Community Heals What Therapy Alone Cannot  Follow Human School:  YouTube - Human School Podcast  Instagram - @humanschoolofficial  Threads - @humanschoolofficial  TikTok - @humanschoolofficial What We Discuss: 00:00 Meet Dr. Neil Bomar  00:04:35 Why Dr. Bomar Left Traditional Medicine Behind  00:10:01 A Western Medicine Doctor Meets Experiential Therapy 00:11:27 The Family Intensive at Onsite That Changed Everything 00:13:40 What He Learned About Sadness Growing Up 00:14:40 "Happy Jack": The Public Man, the Private Reality, and the Weight of Both  00:21:29 The "Goodness of Fit" Theory: Feeling Like an Outlier in Your Own Family 00:26:30 What Is Developmental Wounding? 00:27:30 "Death Day": The Childhood Moment That Quietly Rewires Your Identity  00:29:49 A Bullet Fell From the Sky 00:33:00 Event Trauma vs. Developmental Wounding: Which One Is Actually Harder to Heal  00:38:30 What Is Trauma, Really?

Learn more at experienceonsite.com or call 1-800-341-7432. A simple conversation can be the first step toward living more fully.   What if the discipline that made you a champion is the same thing quietly destroying your most important relationships?   What happens when two elite athletes stop chasing gold medals and start chasing something far more meaningful — each other, their kids, and a life that actually feels like home?   Shawn Johnson East is an Olympic gold medalist and one of the most decorated gymnasts in American history. Andrew East is a former NFL long snapper, entrepreneur, and now holds a doctorate in psychology. Together, they've built a marriage, a family of three young kids, businesses, and a media platform in full public view. But what stands out in this conversation is the radical honesty they bring to the parts of their story.   In this deeply personal conversation, Shawn opens up about the dark side of elite gymnastics — going professional at 12, being trained to go emotionally numb under pressure, and how that survival skill followed her into adulthood and marriage. She reveals her years-long battle with disordered eating and how retiring from gymnastics left her without an identity. Andrew shares the performance anxiety that blindsided him and how losing football forced a painful gift that ultimately shaped everything good that came next. He also opens up about losing his father, Guy East, and how his dad's relentless curiosity modeled the kind of partner and father he's worked hard to become.   We talk about what it means to protect a marriage when the odds are stacked against you, and why commitment, not chemistry alone, is the thing that makes it last. Shawn and Andrew also share more about their upcoming book, The Courage to Commit, and how the title is the foundation of how they live their lives.   In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Use Your Athletic Background to Build a Stronger Marriage How Going Numb Under Pressure Creates Hardness at Home and What to Do About It How to Navigate the Identity Crisis That Comes After Leaving a High-Performance Career How to Recognize When Your Greatest Strength Has a Shadow Side That's Hurting the People You Love How to Create Daily and Weekly Rhythms That Keep a Marriage Connected Without Over-Complicating It How to Relearn How to Play, Fail, and Start Over After Reaching the Top of Your CraftHow to Use Curiosity Instead of Criticism When You Don't Understand Your Partner How to Commit Fully to Something and Discover That Sticking With It Creates Beauty You Could Never Have Planned  Welcome to Human School, where we learn what matters most - Miles Adcox   Follow Human School:  YouTube - Human School Podcast  Instagram - @humanschoolofficial  Threads - @humanschoolofficial  TikTok - @humanschoolofficial   What We Discuss: 00:00:00 Meet Shawn and Andrew East  00:05:02 The Athletic Brain Meets Married Life  00:08:34 The Special Forces Experience 00:10:21 Going Professional at 12 00:13:26 Two Different People Behind Closed Doors 00:15:15 The Debate That Started an Honest Marriage Conversation  00:18:23 Andrew's Dad Taught Him About Curiosity 00:22:00 Having Each Other Changed What Was Possible  00:27:52 Their Marriage Game Plan Day to Day 00:37:47 What Miles Learned Watching Thousands of Couples  00:40:27 Having Kids Rewired Andrew's View of Optimization  00:44:12 Depression, Eating Disorders, and Breaking the Cycle 00:51:27 The Career He Thought Would Last 15 Years  00:56:18 How to Navigate a Major Life Transition 01:01:04 Miles's Two-Word Prayer That Got Him Through His Darkest Season  01:03:32 What The East's Are Most Excited About Right Now

    Meghan Riordan Jarvis: Falling Apart as a Grief Expert & Creating What Grief Was Missing

    If this conversation resonated, Onsite & Milestones are safe places to land and process grief. Learn more at experienceonsite.com or call 1-800-341-7432. A simple conversation can be the first step toward living more fully. Have you ever been hit by grief so hard that it knocked you off every foundation you thought you had? What if grief isn't a problem to be solved, but an energy inside your body that's asking to be tended? And no one ever taught you how.   Meghan Riordan Jarvis is a trauma therapist, bestselling author of the memoir End of the Hour, and the host of Grief is My Side Hustle, a podcast that has helped thousands of people feel less alone in their loss. But what makes Meghan extraordinary isn't just her clinical expertise in trauma-informed care, EMDR, and body-centered healing; it's the fact that she fell completely apart after her mother died, and had the courage to seek help as a patient in the very world she had spent her career serving. In this conversation, Meghan opens up about losing her mother six years ago and what it felt like to arrive at a treatment program as a clinician who "knew everything." She reveals the early childhood loss that shaped her, the fury that drove her to build something new, and how a morning walk with her Episcopal priest friend changed the way she practices daily. Watch in real time as Meghan does what she does best: shows up with compassion first, no fixes required. Miles and Meghan also pull back the curtain on the Grief M.E.N.T.O.R. Method: Meghan's six-component framework that is rewriting how clinicians, companies, and everyday people understand and support loss. From the neuroscience of why your brain codes grief like a trauma folder, to why the five stages of grief were never meant for you, to why your body literally cannot trust itself to heal if you never go to the bathroom during the workday, this conversation is the grief education none of us ever got.   In this conversation, you'll learn: How to Understand What Grief Actually IsHow to Recognize When Your Body Is Carrying Grief Before Your Mind Does How to Stop White-Knuckling Through Hard Seasons Alone How to Apply the Grief M.E.N.T.O.R. Method as a Daily Practice How to Support a Grieving Person Without Saying the Wrong Thing How to Tell the Difference Between Grief and Clinical Depression and Why It Matters How to Reframe the Story You're Telling About Your Loss How to Move Anger and Energy Through Your Body Instead of Staying Stuck in It How to Stop Looking Outside Yourself for the Answers  Welcome to Human School, where we learn what matters most - Miles Adcox   Follow Human School:  YouTube - Human School Podcast  Instagram - @humanschoolofficial  Threads - @humanschoolofficial  TikTok - @humanschoolofficial   What We Discuss: 00:00 Introduction 00:01:17 Meet Meghan Riordan Jarvis 00:02:35 It's Always About the Story: The Red Tabaco Barn 00:13:15 Grief Redefined 00:20:48 The Labyrinth at Onsite 00:27:10 Sacred Instincts and Knowing What You Need  00:29:09 How Miles and Meghan Met 00:34:23 Meghan's Grief Origin Story & What Launched Her into This Career 00:43:26 Grief vs. Depression: Why Treating Them The Same Way is a Critical Mistake 00:45:44 A New Season of Grief - Life After Losing Her Mom 00:57:21 How Fury Became Rocket Fuel for the Grief M.E.N.T.O.R.

We’ve been taught everything except how to be human. In a world obsessed with output, Human School is where we study what happens within. This podcast was born from a journal entry during a breakdown. A reminder that struggle isn’t weakness - it’s instruction. Human School reframes pain as purpose, productivity as presence, and leadership as inner clarity. We’re building the education we never got. Through stories, tools, and raw conversations, we help people stop performing their lives–and start participating in them. Welcome to Human School.
