Have you been tirelessly "doing the work", healing, clearing, grounding, yet still feel unsure where life is actually going? At what point does healing stop helping and start holding you back from living? Are you ready to stop preparing for your life and finally start living it in 2026? Michael welcomes back Jeffrey Allen, spiritual teacher, energy healer, and co-founder of Spirit Mind, for a transformational dialogue about the massive energetic shift of 2026. Jeffrey reveals the shocking truth: The era of endless healing is over. 2026 isn't about fixing what's broken; it's about unbecoming the robot you were trained to be so you can finally uncover the human you truly are. Discover why your "Material Mind" is exhausted, how to activate your "Spirit Mind" to guide you effortlessly, and the specific energetic pivot you need to make right now to stop managing your energy and start choosing it. Key Topics: The Healing Trap: Why healing can become a form of procrastination and how to know when it's time to stop fixing and start living. Why 2026 is the year to "unbecome" the societal programming and robotic behaviors that have been exhausting you. Spirit Mind vs. Material Mind: How to stop letting your analytical mind run the show and start using your Spirit Mind to fill in the blanks with what you actually want. The "When" Trick: The game-changing intuition hack to stop asking what to do and start asking when to do it (and why timing is everything). Fear as a Compass: Why fear isn't a stop sign, it's actually excitement in disguise, and a sign you should run toward the experience. The "Is This Mine?" Tool: The single most important energetic skill for 2026 to instantly clear overwhelm and frustration. The 3-Path Visualization: A guided exercise to test your path: The "Should" Path, The "Rebel" Path, and The "Mystery" Path. This episode is your permission slip to be human.

In this episode, Jason Schroeder challenges the concept of "no school supers"—superintendents who believe they can simply "wing it" on the job without any formal education or training. Jason explains how this mindset is not only dangerous but also incredibly destructive to the construction industry. He emphasizes the importance of learning from mentors, reading, and continuous education to truly succeed in the field. What you'll learn in this episode: Why "winging it" without education leads to poor leadership and destructive practices. The difference between "old school" supers who keep learning and "no school" supers who don't. How to avoid panic, push, and rushing by gaining proper training and knowledge. Why continuous learning is crucial to understanding principles of safety, quality, and production. The impact of not investing in education on project success and team dynamics. What can you do today to start learning and growing as a leader, rather than just "figuring it out" on your own?

Susan Chilcote-Wade Originally from Michigan, I received a BFA in Dance Performance from the University of Michigan, School of Music, Theater and Dance. In 1982 fresh from college, I was one of 7 original members of the New Dance Ensemble, a post-modern repertory dance company in Minneapolis, and in '89 joined the Margaret Jenkins Dance Company in San Francisco. Those were amazing formative years and deep in my matrix.Dovetailing dancing was my bodywork practice including Therapeutic and Deep Tissue Massage, Trager, Feldenkrais and Pilates. I loved these beautiful careers and feel they inform me to this day. Family life, with its magical worlds and learning adventures was packing creative energy for all of us. Over the course of our kids lives, I volunteered in the schools, doing arts and crafts and running events with other dedicated parents.During that time I joined the team of amazing artisans at the Renaissance Institute, which runs the booth called Past Times Garden within the Northern California Renaissance Faire. It was there I created the Venetian Mask Painting Workshop, which became a popular activity during faire. I have always been interested in paper Mache, creating objects and creatures, so working faire was a perfect blend of teaching and creating.A decade ago, through local workshops and online learning, I discovered a fresh love for painting with Beeswax! That was a life changer! Seeking a way to blend my new found visual art with my movement and bodywork background, meant a steep learning curve into visual art. While the language of art and performing arts is similar, they are very different and skills don't exactly translate, so I steep myself in continual learning everyday.I love working with Encaustic wax, the aroma alone is amazing. Using heat guns, irons and torches to move and fuse the layers, is part of the fun and interesting challenges that working with molten wax offers. It can take many different forms, layers, textures and luminocity. I'm able to integrate the life drawing I love, collage, photography, and the world of botanical arts of cyanotype and eco printing. It all works together so well and keeps me pushing forward.Thank you for your interest, I'm so happy to share my artwork with you. I'm on Instagram: @susanchilcotwade. Feel free to contact me here for purchases, questions, and comments. susan@susanchilcote-wade.com; and you've found me on the web at www.susanchilcote-wade.com

In this episode of Stuff About Money They Didn't Teach You in School, Erik Garcia is joined by Miles Clark, Senior Analyst at Nasdaq Dorsey Wright, to explore a simple but important question: what's better—time in the market or timing the market? The conversation opens with a long-term look at how markets have behaved over multi-decade periods and what that data can teach investors when they're deciding what to do with new money, especially when markets are sitting at or near all-time highs. From there, Erik and Miles walk through three common investor approaches: investing a lump sum right away, waiting for a pullback, or easing in over time. They discuss which experiences tend to lead to better long-term outcomes and why those results often surprise people. The conversation also touches on momentum, relative strength, and market breadth, including what it means when market leadership becomes narrow and valuations stretch. The episode wraps up with Miles' thoughts on what matters most heading into 2026, what investors tend to worry about too much, and what deserves more attention moving forward. If you found this episode helpful, follow the show and share it with someone who's still waiting for the “right” time to invest. Episode Highlights: Miles discusses a study showing "Average Joe," who invests $500 monthly regardless of market conditions, outperforms market timers by about $1 million. (07:25) Miles breaks down market breadth through a football analogy: it tells investors whether the market is on offense or defense. (13:20) Miles mentions that in core-dominated markets, the real risk isn't beating the benchmark but simply keeping up with it. (18:55) Miles discusses how Dorsey Wright applies relative strength to identify which assets to hold, focusing on sustained trends rather than short-term news. (22:45) Miles explains how momentum investing rotated out of tech in 2022 into energy and utilities, then back into tech for 2023-2024. (29:30) Erik emphasizes that risk capacity matters more than risk tolerance, which is often driven by emotions about current market conditions. (36:25) Key Quotes: "We don't necessarily have to focus on protecting against the entire market washout. We really just need to protect ourselves against where we're over-concentrated in our portfolios." - Miles Clark "In core-dominated markets, a lot of the risk is actually just not keeping up with the benchmark because it is so strong." - Miles Clark "Finding and earning positive relative strength is just trying to pick those assets that are doing relatively better towards the up or downside than their benchmark." - Miles Clark Resources Mentioned: Miles Clark Nasdaq Dorsey Wright Erik Garcia, CFP®, BFA Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC, CLTC Plan Wisely Wealth Advisors

To end the year, we're doing a countdown of the most listened-to episodes of the orthoPAc podcast! Miguel Serrato, MS,MHA, PA-C, ATC, is a PAOS member and is in his second year as a practicing orthopaedic PA. He shares with Sam some of the considerations that PAs have regarding financing PA school and student loans. Miguel won the Susan Lindahl Memorial Scholarship in 2019 and we caught up with him in 2021. The Susan Lindahl Memorial Scholarship was established in 1998. Susan, the wife of our founding president Joe Lindahl, passed away following a battle with a brain tumor in 1997. This scholarship fund was established in her honor recognizing the sacrifices Susan and Joe underwent getting the PAOS off the ground and sustaining the organization in the early years. The establishment of this memorial scholarship fund was to cultivate and attract PA students into the field of orthopaedics.
Why is religion today so often associated with giving and taking offense? To answer this question, Slandering the Sacred: Blasphemy Law and Religious Affect in Colonial India (U Chicago Press, 2023) invites us to consider how colonial infrastructures shaped our globalized world. Through the origin and afterlives of a 1927 British imperial law (Section 295A of the Indian Penal Code), J. Barton Scott weaves a globe-trotting narrative about secularism, empire, insult, and outrage. Decentering white martyrs to free thought, his story calls for new histories of blasphemy that return these thinkers to their imperial context, dismantle the cultural boundaries of the West, and transgress the borders between the secular and the sacred as well as the public and the private. Raj Balkaran is a scholar of Sanskrit narrative texts. He teaches at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies and at his own virtual School of Indian Wisdom. For information see rajbalkaran.com.

The Metaphysics of Race seeks to reframe debates on the conflicting scientific and spiritual traditions that underpinned the Nazi worldview, showing how despite the multitude of tensions and rivals among its adherents, it provided a coherent conceptual grid and possessed its own philosophical consistency. Drawing on a large variety of works, the volume offers insights into the intellectual climate that allowed the radical ideology of National Socialism to take hold. It examines the emergence of nuanced conceptions of race in interwar Germany and the pursuit of a new ethical and existential fulcrum in biology. Accordingly, the volume calls for a re-examination of the place of genetics in Nazi racial thought, drawing attention to the multi-register voices within the framework of interwar racial theory. Varshizky explores the ways in which these ideas provided new justifications for the Nazi revolutionary enterprise and blurred the distinction between fact and value, knowledge and faith, the secular and the sacred, and how they allowed Nazi thinkers to bounce across these epistemological divisions.

The Metaphysics of Race seeks to reframe debates on the conflicting scientific and spiritual traditions that underpinned the Nazi worldview, showing how despite the multitude of tensions and rivals among its adherents, it provided a coherent conceptual grid and possessed its own philosophical consistency. Drawing on a large variety of works, the volume offers insights into the intellectual climate that allowed the radical ideology of National Socialism to take hold. It examines the emergence of nuanced conceptions of race in interwar Germany and the pursuit of a new ethical and existential fulcrum in biology. Accordingly, the volume calls for a re-examination of the place of genetics in Nazi racial thought, drawing attention to the multi-register voices within the framework of interwar racial theory. Varshizky explores the ways in which these ideas provided new justifications for the Nazi revolutionary enterprise and blurred the distinction between fact and value, knowledge and faith, the secular and the sacred, and how they allowed Nazi thinkers to bounce across these epistemological divisions.

Addressing the relationship between law and the visual, this book examines the importance of photography in Central, East, and Southeast European show trials. The dispensation of justice during communist rule in Albania, East Germany, and Poland was reliant on legal propaganda, making the visual a fundamental part of the legitimacy of the law. Analysing photographs of trials, Agata Fijalkowski's Law, Visual Culture, and the Show Trial (Routledge, 2023) examines how this message was conveyed to audiences watching and participating in the spectacle of show trials. The book traces how this use of the visual was exported from the Soviet Union and imposed upon its satellite states in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. It shows how the legal actors and political authorities embraced new photographic technologies to advance their legal propaganda and legal photography. Drawing on contemporary theoretical work in the area, the book then challenges straightforward accounts of the relationship between law and the visual, critically engaging entrenched legal historical narratives, in relation to three different protagonists, to offer the possibility of reclaiming and rewriting past accounts. As its analysis demonstrates, the power of images can also be subversive; and, as such, the cases it addresses contribute to the discourse on visual epistemology and open onto contemporary questions about law and its inherent performativity.

Why is religion today so often associated with giving and taking offense? To answer this question, Slandering the Sacred: Blasphemy Law and Religious Affect in Colonial India (U Chicago Press, 2023) invites us to consider how colonial infrastructures shaped our globalized world. Through the origin and afterlives of a 1927 British imperial law (Section 295A of the Indian Penal Code), J. Barton Scott weaves a globe-trotting narrative about secularism, empire, insult, and outrage. Decentering white martyrs to free thought, his story calls for new histories of blasphemy that return these thinkers to their imperial context, dismantle the cultural boundaries of the West, and transgress the borders between the secular and the sacred as well as the public and the private.

Pete Souza was the Chief Official White House Photographer for the entire tenure of the presidency of Barack Obama. He is the author of several books, including the #1 New York Times bestsellers Obama: An Intimate Portrait and Shade: A Tale of Two Presidents. A photojournalist since the late 1970s, Souza was also an official White House photographer during the Reagan administration, a freelance photographer for Life and National Geographic, and the Washington-based natural national photographer for the Chicago Tribune. A documentary about his work at the White House, The Way I See It, was nominated for an Emmy, and its Premier was the highest rated non-news, non-live program in MSNBC history. He is a professor emeritus at Ohio University's School of Visual Communication. In 2021, Souza was inducted into the International Photography Hall of Fame. Pete has brilliantly captured on film so many incredible moments in modern presidential history. But he also has a great way with words, and joins me for an insightful chat about Donald Trump's unconscionable architectural and design assault on The White House, the defiling of The Kennedy Center, and his utter disdain for protocol, the rule of law, and history.

What does it take to not only reach the pinnacle of a sport like World Long Drive but to sustain a nearly two-decade career at its peak? In this engaging episode we go far beyond the grid and the spectacle of 380-yard bombs to uncover the heart, wisdom, and entrepreneurial spirit of a true icon. Host Colin Weston sits down with the remarkable Phillis Meti - ranked #3 in the world and 5 time World Champ - to explore her incredible journey from picking up her father's shanked golf balls in New Zealand to becoming a global golf ambassador. Phillis opens up about the fierce mentality required to compete, the pivotal lessons learned from both victory and heartbreaking defeat, and her visionary mission to pave pathways for the next generation. This conversation is a masterclass in longevity, adaptability, and giving back. Whether you're fascinated by the physics of speed, the business of golf, or stories of profound resilience, Phillis's insights will leave you inspired and ready to “kick the door down” for your own ambitions. Get ready for an episode packed with power, purpose, and unforgettable stories. https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/cTlwO047.jpg Key takeaways in this episode with Phillis that you will discover: Longevity is Built on Wisdom and Adaptability: Success isn't just about raw speed. Phillis credits her sustained career to evolving from a "fearless" hitter into a savvier technical player, learning to adapt her ball flight to different grids, and prioritizing recovery and intelligent strength training. True Power Starts with Your Hands: A crucial technical insight for anyone wanting more speed: your hands hold the club, so their movement is paramount. Phillis emphasizes that generating speed is a sequencing chain, where proper hip movement ultimately serves to allow the hands to move faster through the hitting zone. Create Pathways So Others Can Follow: Phillis's vision extends far beyond competition. Inspired by her parents, she is actively working to build an indigenous school and recruitment pipeline to help student-athletes from New Zealand and Polynesia transition to U.S. colleges, ensuring they have the support to succeed. Her mission is to show what's possible and pull others up with her. Episode Chapters: (00:01 - 01:25) Introduction: Welcoming World Long Drive Phenom Phillis Meti (01:25 - 03:15) From Rugby to Golf: Phillis's First Swing and Family Influence (03:15 - 06:26) A Multi-Sport Childhood: The Circuitous Path to Long Drive (06:26 - 08:42) Anatomy of a Competition: How World Long Drive Works (08:42 - 13:45) The Speed Equation: Training, Technique, and Swinging 125 MPH (13:45 - 17:13) Wisdom Over Fear: The Evolution of a Champion's Mindset (17:13 - 19:25) The Key to Longevity: Spinal Hygiene and Injury Prevention (19:25 - 24:35) The 2025 Season Arc: Global Competition and New Formats (24:35 - 27:59) Inside the Bag: The Tech & Specs of a Long Drive Driver (27:59 - 31:14) The State of the Game: Community, Competition, and Commerce (31:14 - 38:31) Entrepreneurial Drive: Building a School and Creating Pathways Home (38:31 - 42:43) A Vision for the Future: Bringing Long Drive to the Masses & Closing Thoughts Quotable Moments from Phillis: On Perspective and Growth: "Winning my first championship in 2006 and coming second twice after, I completely lost focus. I got caught up in the hype. Between then and now, I am a better game player with a bit more wisdom. I play the game differently now." On Equipment and Control: "The one thing about the women is that we don't swing it fast enough to afford using lofts lower than a seven-degree head. I have one of the fastest club head speeds, but I use one of the highest lofts on the tour." On Legacy and Lifting Others: "When you're on your way up, always try to look back and pull others up with you. So if people want to keep going further than you, at least they have your shoulders to stand on. Why not be me to kick down that door? I've got a big foot!" Phillis Meti's bio page >> https://modgolf.fireside.fm/guests/phillis-meti Phillis Meti is a multi-time World Long Drive Champion, currently ranked #3 globally, whose career embodies power, resilience, and purpose. Hailing from New Zealand, her journey began at age seven, wielding a club to pick up her father's errant golf balls. A gifted multi-sport athlete, she excelled in netball and discus before a flyer for a local long drive qualifier at age 18 changed her trajectory. Demonstrating breathtaking natural power, she not only qualified but went on to win the World Long Drive Championship in her very first attempt in 2006. Nearly two decades later, Phillis remains a dominant force, combining 125 MPH clubhead speed with hard-earned wisdom to outthink and outlast the competition on grids across the globe.

Is 2025 feeling like a blur, leaving you wondering how life could possibly move any faster? Are you feeling the "shakes and quakes" of old systems crumbling and wondering where to find solid ground? What if the chaos isn't a sign of the end, but the "quickening" of your greatest awakening yet? Michael shares a powerful co-creation channeled directly from Archangel Michael regarding the energies of the year ahead. This is not a doom-and-gloom prediction show; it is a survival guide for the soul. Michael reveals the theme for 2026: The Quickening and The Reckoning. Discover why the speed of change is about to accelerate beyond imagination, why the "old guard" is getting louder as it dissolves, and why this is actually a "celebration in disguise." This is your manual on how to stop "fastening your heart" out of fear and instead anchor yourself in the eye of the storm to become the Master you were born to be. Key Topics: Why Archangel Michael calls this the year of "The Quickening and The Reckoning", and why 2025 will seem slow in comparison. Corruption, exploitation, and the "old guard" must become louder and more visible in order to finally be healed and released. Don't Fasten Your Heart: Why the instinct to "shields up" is the wrong move, and how to keep your heart wide open even when the ride gets bumpy. How the current heat and pressure are not here to break you, but to refine you into an unbreakable force of light. The single most important phrase to anchor your power this year: "I CHOSE this time." Why we are moving away from words and logic into Energy and Receivership. If you are ready to stop sleepwalking and start shining, this message will remind you that you are not a victim of the times, you are a Creator who came here to rock them.
