    The Truth About Alignment, Pain & Peak Performance | Dr. Nick Athens (S4 E 11)

    What if chronic pain, burnout, and fatigue aren’t just “part of life”—but signs your body is out of alignment?   In this powerful episode, Dr. Nick Athens, trusted chiropractor to legends like Joe Montana, Roger Craig, Jerry Rice, Steve Young, the San Francisco Giants, and many other elite athletes, shares how true performance starts with the body, not just the grind.   With over 40 years of experience, Dr. Athens has helped elite athletes and everyday individuals unlock longevity, resilience, and peak performance through alignment, consistency, and proactive care. From a Super Bowl sideline adjustment seen by millions to transforming how leaders think about health, his work bridges the gap between high performance and lifelong well-being.   In this conversation, we explore: • Why waiting until pain shows up is the biggest mistake most people make • The real connection between stress, emotions, and physical health • What elite athletes understand about consistency that most people don’t • How chiropractic care became essential at the highest levels of sports • The philosophy behind his book *To Health With You* • Simple, practical ways to start reconnecting with your body today   This isn’t just about athletes—it’s about anyone who wants to feel better, think clearer, and live longer with intention.   If you’ve been pushing through, ignoring the signals, or feeling disconnected from your body… this conversation will shift how you think about your health.   #ChiropracticCare #PeakPerformance #Longevity #HolisticHealth #MindBodyConnection #dameshacraig #joemontana #rogercraig #ronnielott #jerryrice #fredwarner #steveyoung #sf49ers #sfgiants   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Burnout Is a Signal—Not the Problem | Graham Skidmore (S4 E9)

    What happens when you walk away from conventional success—and step into sovereignty?   In this powerful episode of Sunday SoulDay, we sit down with Graham Skidmore, former Rocket Mortgage executive turned entrepreneur, educator, and systems thinker, to explore the deeper truth behind burnout, identity, and reclaiming personal power.   After two decades helping scale one of corporate America’s most influential client acquisition engines, Graham experienced what many would call burnout—but what he now recognizes as a profound spiritual initiation.   That moment didn’t break him. It redirected him.   Today, Graham is building systems that honor the soul, restore agency, and integrate ethical AI to support human potential—not replace it.   🌱 In this episode, we explore: The hidden truth behind burnout—and why it’s often a turning point Why “the systems are broken, not the people” How fear, trauma, and conditioning shape our lives—and how to transform them Reclaiming personal sovereignty in a world of one-size-fits-all systems The role of ethical AI in supporting human intelligence and evolution What it means to live in alignment with your authentic self   🌿 About Graham’s Work Graham is the founder of:   EnGen — a nonprofit incubating healing, education, and decentralized community SATH Solutions — building ethical, soul-aligned AI infrastructure Harmony Health — helping individuals reconnect with their potential through education, tools, and practitioner support   He is also the creator of I Didn’t Come With an Owner’s Manual, a multi-part YouTube teaching series and forthcoming book that explores how personal growth, healing, and self-awareness are deeply connected to how we understand ourselves—and the systems we live within.   🌸 Why this conversation matters   This episode challenges the idea that something is “wrong” with you.   Instead, it offers a new perspective:   👉 What if your struggles are not failures—but signals? 👉 What if your path isn’t broken—but misaligned? 👉 What if your power was never lost—just buried?   🌱 Who this is for Leaders navigating burnout or identity shifts Founders and creators questioning conventional success Anyone seeking deeper alignment, healing, and purpose Those curious about the intersection of consciousness, systems, and AI   🌿 Subscribe for more conversations that fuel your mind, body, and soul.   Hosted by: ⁠Damesha Craig⁠, Certified Career & Life Purpose Alchemist, Startup Board Advisor, Author, Founder of Leadership Garden & Talent Connect Network, & Executive Contributor & Editor of The Soul Fueler Journal   Connect with Damesha Craig 🔗: https://www.dameshacraig.com 🌱: https://www.leadershipgarden.ai 📬: https://dameshacraig.substack.com/ 🔗: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dameshacraig/ 📸 : https://www.instagram.com/dameshacraig/ 🔗: https://www.talentconnectnetwork.com   Be a Guest: Email us: sundaysouldaypodcast@gmail.com   https://www.dameshacraig.com/   #Leadership #PersonalGrowth #ConsciousLeadership #AI #Healing #Sovereignty #SundaySoulDay Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
