Take Care & Live!
Take Care & Live is a podcast for people who feel stuck between who they are and who they know they could become. Each episode breaks down internal barriers—beliefs, habits, and identity gaps—and turns them into practical strategies to help you build momentum in your life, leadership, and work.
Designed for thoughtful, growth-minded individuals, the show helps you confront limiting beliefs, live a values-aligned life, and move forward with clarity and confidence—so your growth isn’t just aspirational, but something you can immediately put into action.

See It Through: Overcoming Commitment Phobia
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dr. Stephen V. clarifies how overcoming the fear of commitment is a sign of personal and professional maturity. Committing protects us from being bossed around by the plethora of opinions and approaches so many of us blindly adopt without being disciplined to intentionally stick with one targeted direction. You'll learn that pushing in one targeted direction to the limit and looking for results equips us to focus on living rather than being in a continuous loop of longing.
