Take Care & Live!
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. Peters. I'm a performance and executive coach, conflict resolution expert, and author with 13 years of experience guiding leaders, teams, and high-performing individuals.
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.

Risk Point: Getting Mishandled By Other People’s Interests
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When you get clear about your interests, you will attract both resistance and results.
In this part 3 episode of the Interests vs. Enhancements Series on the Take Care & Live Podcast, Dr. Stephen V. Peters explores the risks of taking on interests that were never truly your own—interests shaped by the expectations of others rather than your values, priorities, or calling.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• How unmanaged curiosity keeps people stuck at the passive level of engagement
• Why moving from passive curiosity to directed engagement is essential for growth
• How the Cognitive Capital Ladder helps transform interests into enhancements
• Why clarity about your priorities will inevitably generate resistance and results
