Dr. Stephen V. points us to the benefits and the barriers of detours, both of which can be life saving, so that we can engage them in the most powerful and strategic ways possible when we encounter them in our life and work.

There are all sorts of formulas and ideas for what it takes to win. Quite frankly it should be that way because not everyone will fit the same paradigm and no single experience or roadmap for winning and being remarkable is a single match for every individual. However, this one thing is for sure, people who look to win at any level know that winning attitudes and behaviors require not only individual discipline but a community of like-minded, aligned people deeply invested in the process who know how to win.
In this episode, Dr. Stephen V. presents a framework and strategies for winning that are key to a winning experience and may be just the right fit for you.

Recently, there have been a few culture-shifting late-night talk show personalities, in the prime of their careers, who have left their lucrative successful gigs to do something else. Their leaving wasn’t prompted by a scandal or a mishap. For them, it was simply time to move on and do something new – explore new opportunities.
In this episode, Dr. Stephen V. explains how embracing the genius of moving on leaves a blueprint others want to follow and can expand your influence in far more valuable ways than digging our heels into a strategy for permanence that leaves more victims than victors.

Congresswoman Maxime Waters went viral during the summer of 2017 with this unforgettable procedural interruption phase, “Reclaiming my time. I'm reclaiming my time!" When the then Treasury Secretary, attempted to pull her off her focus, saturate her with compliments and avoid answering the hard questions.
She needed to reset the conversation. This experience reflects what we need to practice when it comes to ending the cycle of busyness – engaging in a plethora of activities but making limited, little, or no progress.
In this episode, Dr. Stephen V. shows us how we can reset our environment so we can accomplish what matters most, leverage the best of who we are and what we have to offer by reclaiming our time, not just with words but the practices/systems we put in place to protect it.

Dr. Stephen V. guides us through habits and mindsets that help us stay connected to our values and specifically the visions we have for our personal and professional lives. With help from Jim Loehr & Tony Schwartz's work, The Power of Full Engagement: Managing Energy, Not Time, is the Key to High Performance and Personal Renewal, Dr. Stephen focuses on the ways we can more deeply internalize our values and addresses two of the barriers that try to creep in and sabotage our efforts to execute the personal and professional vision we are working to see lived out in our lives.

From the publisher's feed
Take Care & Live is a podcast for thoughtful, values-driven people who want to establish harmony between their values, decisions, and direction.
My name is Dr. Stephen V.…
The common thread? Misalignment - when values, decisions, and direction fall out of sync.
Each episode exposes the internal barriers that quietly stall momentum: unexamined values, people-pleasing disguised as discipline, the residue of broken trust, and clarity gaps that hard work alone can't fix.
We don't just diagnose the problem.
We turn insight into strategy — so you can build real momentum in your life, leadership, and work.
New episodes weekly.
Follow Take Care & Live to move forward with clarity, confidence, and bold intention—aligned with what actually matters.
