#WinTheDay
“Problems are nothing but wake-up calls for creativity.” – Gerhard Gschwandtner
What if the problem you are trying to get rid of is the thing trying to wake you up?
Brian Bogert’s wake-up call arrived at 7 years old, when he was run over by a truck and his left arm was severed from his body.
What followed was years of intensive rehabilitation and 24 surgeries.
The accident forced a creativity most of us never have to learn. But the bigger wake-up call came later.
For 20 years, Brian shut off physical pain, and without realizing it, shut off mental, emotional, and spiritual pain too. Underneath it, shame, anger, and armor that almost cost him his marriage and the people he loved most.
Today he is a husband and father of two, and he teaches a simple idea: choose your pain, or suffering will choose you.
In this episode:
• The childhood accident that became a lifetime of creative adaptation.
• Why pushing pain down eventually pushes everything else down with it.
• The three questions that turn a trigger into a response.
• How to create emotional safety at home before you create damage.
Let’s WIN THE DAY with Brian Bogert!

Episode 176: Your Path to Health, Healing and Happiness with Dr. David Rabin
“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response.” — Viktor Frankl
Between a major home renovation, tight book deadlines, and competing high-stakes priorities, my focused attention was stretched to its limit recently.
In this Q&A episode, I share the exact tactical framework I used to protect my energy, regain focus, and maintain high performance through one of my most demanding seasons.
I also share the core principles that keep home life grounded when professional stress hits an all-time high, as well as the best parenting advice I've ever heard.
Inside this episode:
• Creating Capacity Under Pressure: How to guard foundational self-care rituals, optimize focus blocks, and use No Pressure Days (NPDs) to prevent burnout.
• The Perspective Reframing Question: A simple mental filter to immediately diffuse frustration—Is it a tragedy or an inconvenience?
• What to Eliminate in High-Stress Seasons: Why cutting out alcohol, negative influences, and catastrophic thinking is non-negotiable for recovery.
• The Playbook for Family Resilience: Why play is the primary language of children, and how to treat domestic friction as feedback rather than an attack.

James
