  • Summary

  • With a snap of a finger, we wish we can make change in our lives with no pain, no stress, no fear, just the results we want. Unfortunately this will never be true. As a former Corporate HR Executive turned professional House Painter, I understand how the decision to make a change in our lives affects us and those closest to us. In HR I helped colleagues deal with uncontrollable change and as a painter I get to change the color of space that surrounds us. Join me for each show where learnings are shared from my own experiences making significant changes in my life, as well as others who have stories of their own to share. Find a happier life to live when you have the tools to see when change is necessary, decide to make a change, have the courage to accept the changes to come, and how to destroy the fear that is holding you back.

  • 022: Change, Routines and the Science of a Good Night Sleep with Dr. Catherine Darley

    022: Change, Routines and the Science of a Good Night Sleep with Dr. Catherine Darley
    May 31 2024
    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.

    021: Overcoming your Victim Mentality When Things Just Happen
    May 23 2024

    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:

    • 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.
