When Nicki Minaj stepped on stage in Phoenix, Arizona, with one hand clasping Erika Kirk and the other waving to a crowd of white supremacists, even I was shocked. We've known the Queen of Rap to me many unsavory things: an insecure egomaniac, a steadfast defender of predators, an obsessive poster (she has my solidarity on that one). But “fascist propagandist” I did not see coming. Today, Olayemi Olurin, Kat Tenbarge and I draw a map of Nicki's life to make sense of how she got here, what she hopes to receive from it, and if it'll even pan out.

Beautiful soul, this episode is for anyone who has lost a loved one, is longing for signs from Heaven, or is searching for reassurance that love continues beyond the veil. Julie is joined by Rachel Stewart, co-founder of 4/11 Together, for a deeply moving conversation about grief, signs, and the unbreakable bond between parents and children who have crossed to the Other Side. Rachel shares the story of her daughter Kennedy, the moment that changed everything for her family, and how undeniable signs and spirit communication transformed loss into connection. This episode is a powerful reminder that Heaven is not far away. Our loved ones are still present, still guiding us, and still finding ways to reach us when we open our hearts. It offers comfort, validation, and hope for anyone navigating grief, spiritual awakening, or a deeper relationship with the unseen world.

If you've been feeling that little tug inside — the whisper that says, “I want more than this… I deserve more than this…” — this episode is your New Year wake-up call. Because here's the truth: So many high-achieving women spend years building a good life… and then wake up wondering why they don't actually feel good in their lives. Work, kids, marriage, mental overload, never-ending to-do lists, stress eating, doom scrolling, and wine o'clock creeping earlier and earlier — it's a lot. And if you're sober curious or trying to quit drinking, that “Is this it?” feeling often gets louder. In this episode, I'm sharing the real, practical tools I used to stop settling, quit drinking, and start creating a life that actually felt good on the inside — not just one that looked good from the outside.

In this Ask Me Anything episode, Ryan and Kipp kick things off with a lighthearted but revealing conversation before diving into listener questions on purpose, vision, balance, and meaning. They explore why men struggle to articulate what they want, how early conditioning shapes silence, and what happens when men open up and feel shut down. The discussion also tackles work-life balance, daily meaning versus long-term purpose, and why purpose is built through action, not found through thinking alone.

Virtue is not a theory. It is something you practice. In the moments where you could overreact. In the moments where quitting would be easier. In the moments where doing the right thing costs you something.In this episode, Ryan explores the four Stoic virtues through conversations with people who actually live them. You'll hear from a fighter pilot who shows courage under pressure, a marathon runner disciplined in daily practice, a historian who reframes justice as action, and Ryan himself on treating wisdom as a lifelong pursuit.

Part 2 of 2: "Why Becoming Your Future Self Requires Letting Go | Dr. Benjamin Hardy" What if the hardest part of becoming your future self isn't discipline or clarity, but the willingness to let go of what once made you successful?. Episode Description Part 1 revealed why meaning comes before courage. Part 2 reveals the price of acting on that meaning. In this continuation, Dr. Benjamin Hardy takes the conversation out of the abstract and into lived reality. He dismantles one of the most seductive lies in personal growth: that you can create a radically different future without giving up the past that built your current life. Using the 80/20 principle, Dr. Hardy explains why most people remain trapped in "2x thinking", incremental improvement driven by familiarity, safety, and social approval. True 10x growth, he argues, is not additive. It is subtractive. It requires stripping away nearly everything that does not belong to the future you are committed to becoming.  Together, Dov and Ben explore why letting go feels like tearing off a limb, how family and loved ones unconsciously resist your transformation, and why honesty, not harmony, is the foundation of real growth. This episode is not motivational. It is clarifying. And for many listeners, it will be confronting. .

In this classic episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton and Tevon Taylor welcome Gaurav Malhotra, Partner and Supply Chain Technology Leader at EY, to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming supply chains today and where it's headed over the next five years. Gaurav shares how EY is helping organizations embrace emerging technologies to create competitive advantage, avoid “pilot purgatory,” and build more cognitive and resilient supply chains.They cover practical misconceptions holding companies back from adopting AI, the foundational elements required for successful implementation, and real-world examples of immediate impact in logistics, predictive maintenance, and warehouse operations. Gaurav also discusses how organizations can invest in workforce education, reskilling, and culture change to ensure that humans remain at the center of AI adoption. Looking ahead, he offers his perspective on how agentic AI will reshape supply chains into adaptive, orchestrated ecosystems while freeing people to focus on creativity, critical thinking, and enterprise differentiation.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(04:13) A personal story family pilgrimage to Kauai(07:34) The intersection of supply chain and humanitarian efforts(09:52) Ey's role in global supply chain(15:20) Misconceptions about AI in factories(18:09) Overcoming pilot paralysis(22:29) Immediate benefits of AI in supply chain(26:25) AI's impact on supply chain efficiency(27:18) The role of agentic AI in factories(31:43) Human element in AI-driven supply chains(36:17) Upskilling and reskilling for the AI era(43:05) Future predictions for AI in supply chainsAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Gaurav Malhotra: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gauravmalhotra/ Learn more about EY: https://www.ey.com/ Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.com Watch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-now Subscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/join Work with us!

Jack Swift is a West Point graduate, former CEO of TIFIN and Liminal Collective, and co-founder of Pacific Current Group and Sangha. He now advises frontier AI ventures, including Vantage Discovery (sold to Shopify), Brightwave, and Grid Aero, and co-founded Sangha, a community for conscious leadership. In this episode, Jack explains why the biggest threat to your organization isn't outside pressure. It's your need to be right. He shows why old leadership habits—command and control, chasing quarterly targets, and relying only on past wins—no longer work. He offers a different approach built on deep listening, less ego, and faster instincts. Jack talks about the blind spots he sees on boards, from big companies ignoring rapid change to startups burning cash to prove a point. He also shares how to spot the moment when governance stops supporting durability and starts blocking innovation—and what to do before bureaucracy kills your edge. Listen to this episode to learn how to drop old frameworks, trust your gut, and build a learning culture that works with AI instead of fighting it.

Watch this Episode on YouTube | Jack Swift on Letting Go of Old Frameworks https://bit.ly/TLP-491 Key Takeaways [02:28] Jack shares that stopping drinking a few years ago has been "incredibly clarifying" for his decision making and presence as a leader. [05:19] Jack shares how his perspective on leadership has evolved from military to entrepreneurship to board service. [10:11] Jack emphasizes three critical elements that make an effective independent board director: maintaining independence to evaluate organizational health, stepping into conflict early, and the ability to "look around corners" and anticipate future disruption. [15:07] Jack identifies the biggest blind spot for larger companies and the biggest blind spot for early-stage companies and founders. [19:26] Jack reflects on how his experiences as an entrepreneur shaped how he evaluates opportunities and risks. [21:48] Jack reflects on something 18 years ago that helped him learn without screwing up. [23:00] Jack discusses the role of ego versus intuition in leadership. [25:34] Jack defines governance in highly regulated industries like insurance and financial services versus the AI space. [29:56] Jack agrees AI works best in regulated spaces because "machine based learning and models work really well in systems, rules based systems" where regulatory review "may have taken humans six months to do, it can be done in like six minutes." [33:16] Jack describes how Boulder's ecosystem has influenced his approach to leadership and growth. [36:35] Jack advises traditional industry leaders to "let go of old frameworks" and "be open to how it might be done" because entrenched industries are "specifically ripe for innovation and disruption." [37:36] Jack says one piece of advice for leaders navigating uncertainty today. He explains why whole-body listening matters for the future of leadership. [41:19] And remember..."I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor." - Henry David Thoreau Quotable Quotes "Leaders make decisions and they look for and create alignment within an organization." "The need to be right is the biggest blind spot. Taking the position that I want to be right, I'm gonna burn capital to show the world that I'm right is a very risky way to go about your business." "I made a lot of mistakes. I screwed a lot of things up. Sometimes because I didn't know any better, sometimes because I let my ego make decisions, and sometimes because I was relying on old frameworks that just wouldn't work anymore." "Your go mind shouldn't always drive the car. Sometimes you need to put instinct in the driver's seat and let your brain be the passenger." "Let go of old frameworks. Don't think you know better. Work on self awareness, work on your personal growth edges. Better at you is better at what you do." "Listen with your whole body. Your body knows—that's your gut, your instinct, your intuition. The faster you can listen, receive, and act, the faster you'll be able to go." "Human beings are the only species that can imagine infinite future potentials and bring them into reality. That creative capability is uniquely human and incredibly special." Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | theleadershippodcast.com Sponsored by | www.darley.com Rafti Advisors.

Actors often think a new year will change things. New calendar, new energy, new motivation. But real change doesn't come from dates. It comes from how you structure your choices, your habits, and your expectations. In this episode of the Acting Business Boot Camp Podcast, Peter Pamela Rose breaks down the five shifts that actually help actors change their year, not in a dramatic, overnight way, but in a grounded, sustainable way that builds real momentum. This conversation is about business, nervous system regulation, consistency, and self leadership. It's about how actors move out of panic and into direction, and why that matters more than setting another list of goals. Why Most New Year Goals Don't Work for Actors Many actors walk into a new year with goals that sound productive but feel heavy. That pressure often leads to overwhelm, inconsistency, and self judgment. Instead of fixing everything at once, this episode reframes the work. It asks actors to focus on direction over pressure, and to build their careers in ways that calm the nervous system rather than spike anxiety. The Five Shifts That Change an Actor's Year 1. Choose Direction, Not Pressure Choosing one clear direction creates clarity and focus. Direction helps actors say no to noise and yes to actions that actually support their growth. 2. Build Tiny Reps Instead of Dramatic Resolutions Big resolutions fade quickly. Small daily actions build momentum. Consistency comes from repetition, not intensity. 3. Let Consistency Be Your Identity, Not Your Mood Actors who wait to feel inspired tend to stall. Actors who identify as consistent keep moving even when motivation dips. 4. Expect Discomfort and Move Anyway Discomfort is not a sign you're doing something wrong. It's often a sign you're doing something new. Growth requires moving through resistance, not avoiding it. 5. Celebrate Tiny Wins to Build Momentum Acknowledging progress trains the brain to repeat positive behavior. Momentum grows when actors recognize what they're already doing well. Momentum Builds Careers, Not Motivation This episode also connects to a past conversation on momentum and why it matters more than talent or timing. When actors learn how to stay in motion, even imperfectly, they create careers that last.

Grit isn't it. You need joy in community. In this second half of our Disneyland conversation, we shift from rides and rain ponchos to something deeper: how community and belonging make joy stick when life is brutal. My friends and I talk about what it really looks like to have people who've got your back—through job changes, grief, divorce, parenting, and the everyday “I cannot do one more hard thing” moments. From a weekly group that's met for 15 years, to long-distance friendships sustained by Marco Polo, to a monthly “Food Club” that became a lifeline, we unpack how joy and resilience are built together, not alone. We also dig into: why saying “yes” to embodied, in-person time changes your brain, why most adults stop marking milestones (and why that's a problem), how the gap and the gain framework helps leaders see how far they've come, and why celebrating after hard things isn't denial—it's evidence that you're still here and still growing. Here's What's in the Episode: Community is resilience infrastructure, not a bonus. Joy and resilience go hand-in-hand when you have people who will listen, pray, problem-solve, or just sit with you so you can take the next step instead of staying stuck. Belonging doesn't magically appear—you build it. “Everybody wants the village, but nobody wants to be a villager.” Showing up, checking in, hosting, inviting, and going first are how leaders create real community in life and at work. Embodied time together literally changes how you feel. Moving from “once-a-year girls' trip” to more frequent in-person time deepened connection and created a rooted sense of belonging—what your team also needs, beyond Slack and email. Celebration marks the gain, not just the goal. Using the gap and the gain idea, we talk about how consciously looking back at what you've survived and accomplished builds self-efficacy, confidence, and courage for the next hard thing. Most meaningful wins are a group sport. Writing a book is solitary, but finishing and celebrating it isn't. Leadership works the same way—you may carry the title, but you don't carry the load alone (or at least, you shouldn't). Key Takeaway Joy and resilience aren't solo acts — leaders thrive when they build and lean on real community.

The Old Money Rules Are Broken  Here's What Actually Works Now Most people are still following financial advice that was designed for a world that no longer exists. Save your money. Get a degree. Work for forty years. Retire if nothing goes wrong. In this episode, I walk you through why that playbook is broken and what the new money rules look like in today's economy. We break down the shift from saving to ownership, from jobs to skills, from "someday" to designing freedom now, and from waiting to moving while things are still messy. Using real examples and simple math, you'll see why safety-focused advice often creates long-term stress instead of freedom. If your money feels stuck, outdated, or misaligned with the life you want this episode is your wake-up call. Episode Timeline and Highlights [0:00] Why old money rules don't work anymore [1:15] Saving vs ownership [4:00] Jobs, skills, and leverage [6:00] The problem with delaying life [8:00] Why waiting keeps people broke [10:00] How to update your financial playbook [12:00] What to do next Key Takeaways • Saving doesn't build wealth—ownership does • Income without leverage creates dependence • Time is the most expensive thing you lose • Freedom is designed, not delayed • Clarity comes from action, not overthinking Quotables "Saving doesn't build wealth. Ownership does." "If your plan depends on surviving forty years of stress, it's broken." "Clarity is earned through movement—not waiting." Closing If your financial strategy feels outdated, don't beat yourself up. Just update the rules you're playing by.

Fear, Power & Recovery with KarlaIn this conversation with Karla, I sit down and get brutally honest about fear - the real barrier to your eating disorder recovery. We talk about why every single one of my clients, and everyone I've ever worked with, is fighting fear in different ways. And more importantly, we talk about how to actually face it. This episode is essential for anyone stuck in restriction, anyone waiting to feel ready, and anyone who needs reminding that you have far more power than you think.Key Quotes from the Episode:

What's it really like to open and operate a Haunted Attraction business? Can your dream really come true? Can you do it by yourself? We answer all of your questions in this Master Class with Conner Beets from Imminent Doom Haunted House. Conner, a lifetime Haunt enthusiast, started and operated his first commercial haunted attraction this year (2025). At the age of 20 years old!   Conner's 5 Top Tips for starting a brand-new haunt are…   1. Build outside city limits if possible! If you happen to be in the city limits… be in CONSTANT communication with your local Fire Marshall and don't try to fight them on codes. Believe me… You will not win that battle lol!   2. Invest Wisely! As cool as some of those massive props are at TransWorld… the quality often isn't what it is at the show when you receive your copy. When at a show, be sure to thoroughly inspect a prop to make sure it is built to last and will be a worthwhile investment for your show!   3. Train your actors!!! As cool as your sets and props may be, your guests only want one thing… to be terrified!!! You can have the most beautiful and high-tech animatronics known to man. Still, if you don't hold your actors to a standard and train them how to scare, develop characters, and pace themselves properly… your show will definitely suffer!   4. Work with and collaborate with your other local haunted attractions! We did a huge project this year called The Frightful Four of East Texas, featuring four local haunts, and it absolutely blew up into a huge deal! You can learn a lot from working with fellow industry experts from your area, and since you are all near each other… There is room for everyone to succeed by working together to drive more guests to your area around October!   5. Stay Humble! I cannot stress this one enough! Don't be a giant Douche for lack of a better word! Your show is not the best thing in the world, despite what you may think, and you will always have to work to improve your show year after year! Also, don't be afraid to ask for help. I haven't seen many haunts that absolutely one person builds, so I'm definitely willing to work with others!

What if forgiveness didn't ask you to forget, pretend, or minimize? We open a kinder door: releasing the grip of the past without erasing it, and training attention so old stories don't run the show. Through a grounded, step-by-step loving-kindness practice with Sharon Salzberg, we move from caring for ourselves to offering warmth to a benefactor, a neutral person, and ultimately to all beings—showing how compassion can be both steady and discerning.Sharon's website: SharonSalzberg.comWe start by reframing forgiveness as a shift in identification, not a wipe of memory. Then we teach a simple sequence of phrases—may I be safe, be happy, be healthy, live with ease—and explain why the power lies in sincere repetition. Wandering minds are expected; the core skill is noticing, letting go, and returning. That small return mirrors forgiveness itself: again and again, we choose presence over replay.As the circle widens, we explore the ease of offering to someone who makes you smile, the surprising depth of wishing well for a neutral person, and the humbling recognition of our shared vulnerability. Life can turn on a dime; kindness helps us meet that truth without hardening. By the end, you'll feel how goodwill does not negate boundaries or justice—it clarifies them. Remembering remains, but resentment loosens its hold, making room for steadiness, clarity, and a more generous way to move through the world.If this practice supports you, follow the show, share it with a friend who could use some ease, and leave a quick review to help others find it.Support the showAdd your 5‑star review — this really helps others find us.

How To Find a Cofounder Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. A founding team includes someone who is building it and someone who is selling it. It's important that the startup has two founders. Here are some steps to find a cofounder for your startup. Figure out which role the founder is taking and look for a cofounder to fill the other. The key to finding and recruiting the co-founder is to show how the business will be successful. This typically starts with a customer or market ready to pay for the product to be produced. Show the key insight you have into the market and how you can use it to create a successful business. Validate with customers who are ready to buy the product and place them on a waitlist. Sign up customers who are ready to pay and provide the service manually till you have an automated solution. Gain agreement on the goals of the company for the coming three years. Negotiate compensation based on what each founder is bringing to the table. Use the negotiation process to test out the other's skills. Go on joint sales calls to see how each performs. Work on the product development to see what progress can be made. Consider these steps in finding a cofounder. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

Demographer and author Paul Morland joins James Smith to reveal the uncomfortable truth about the problem with population collapse - why falling birth rates are creating aging societies, economic decline and a quiet crisis at the heart of the modern world. Morland explains how a lack of children is reshaping nations, destroying communities and threatening the future of humanity itself. They discuss the myths around “overpopulation,” the cultural shifts stopping people from having families and the real reasons behind the demographic time bomb no one wants to talk about. From housing and technology to feminism and social media, this episode explores how comfort, distraction and misplaced priorities have turned reproduction into a global taboo.

Here's a problem that'll make your head spin: What do you do when you can sell way more than your company can produce? That's the question posed by Dylan Noah from Toronto. Dylan sells craft cider to bars and restaurants across his territory. He's the only salesperson for a small producer, working with limited tools (no proper CRM), and here's the kicker: he could sell a million dollars' worth of product, but production isn't enough to meet that demand. If you're shaking your head thinking this is a champagne problem, you're half right. But for Dylan trying to hit his income goals through commissions, it's a real constraint that's costing him money every single day. The CRM Obsession Is a Distraction Let's tackle the first issue head on. Dylan is worried he doesn't have the right CRM tools to manage his accounts and hit his numbers. Here's the brutal truth: at one point in time, salespeople sold a lot of cider, beer, wine, liquor, and all kinds of other stuff without any CRM at all. They used index cards in a box. They had lists on paper. And they crushed it. You're a small business with one salesperson working with 3,000 to 7,000 potential accounts in your territory. The last thing you should worry about right now is a $40,000 CRM system. Could you use automation for email sequences and promotions? Absolutely. Should you eventually invest in something like HubSpot or Pipedrive? Yes. But right now, what you need is a simple system to identify your best accounts and focus your time there. You're not going to hit $1 million across 3,000 accounts. You're going to hit it across 500 accounts that are the biggest restaurants and bars, where they like you, their customers like cider, and where you can create events and experiences that spike sales. Use a spreadsheet. Use index cards. Use whatever basic tool you've got right now. Create a 30-60-90 day system where you know who you're calling on in the next 30 days, the next 60 days, and the next 90 days. Build a list of your top 250 accounts that buy the most from you. That's where you live. Stop obsessing over tools you don't have and start maximizing the opportunity in front of you. Scarcity Is Your Secret Weapon This brings us to the real issue: production capacity. Dylan can sell it, but his company can't make enough of it. The bourbon distillers in America are dealing with this exact problem right now. They ramped up production years ago based on projected demand, and now they're sitting on excess inventory that's aging out. It's a delicate balance, and if you make too much, it goes bad and you lose everything. Here's what most salespeople don't understand about scarcity: it's actually a competitive advantage if you manage it right. When you have limited product, you're always going to be in an ebb and flow situation. Sometimes you'll have an abundance of one product type. Sometimes you'll have high demand products in short supply. The key is building a system that lets you move fast when opportunity strikes. This is where building buying profiles for every single customer becomes essential. You need to know which accounts buy which types of products, what their purchase patterns look like, and what their potential is (high, medium, or low). Think about it like your account coverage pyramid. When you have product available, you start at the top with your highest value accounts and work your way down. You're not treating all 150 accounts the same. You're prioritizing based on potential. When you have an abundance of one product type, you go directly to the customers who buy that product and say, "Hey, I've got product right now. Do you want to buy?" You can run specials. You can offer incentives (within legal limits). You move it fast. When your high demand products come in, you call your best accounts first and say, "I've got ten cases of this. I'm calling you first. How many do you want?" Then you go down your list. Most of the time, you'll sell out before you even leave your office. But if you've got 150 accounts and you're treating them all the same, it gets overwhelming fast. Segment them. Prioritize them. Work them strategically. Making Your Number When You Can't Control Supply The income issue is where this gets really interesting. Dylan wants to double his sales and earn more commissions, but he can't because the company keeps running out of product. Here's my take: if you're supposed to sell $1.5 million but your company only produces $750,000 worth of product that you could sell, they should pay you for the $1.5 million. Production was the reason you couldn't make your number, not your sales ability. Now, I know there are people in operations reading this who are going to say I'm full of it. But from a sales standpoint, if you've sold out of everything available, you've done your job. The constraint isn't you, it's production capacity. That's a hard conversation to have with ownership, I get it. But here's how you make that case: sell out of the other stuff that people don't want as much. Figure out how to move all of it. Put yourself in a position where you own the moral high ground when it comes to sales performance. If you do that and they still can't or won't pay you for what you could have sold, then you've got a decision to make. But at least you'll have learned how to sell in a resource-constrained environment, how to build relationships, how to manage your territory, and how to work a manual system. Those are skills that transfer to any sales role, especially ones that give you all the bells and whistles and unlimited product to sell. The Power of Old School Discipline Let's go back to 1985 for a minute. In 1985, you would have had a Rolodex with tabs for H (high potential), M (medium potential), and L (low potential) accounts. When product came in, you'd open to H, pull out the cards, and start dialing. "I've got ten cases of your favorite cider. I'm calling you first. How many do you want?" If they don't want any, click. Next card. By the time you hit the tenth account, you're usually sold out. That's the power of segmentation combined with discipline. Systems beat moods. Sequence beats sporadic effort. Process creates momentum. You don't need fancy technology to do this. You need clear priorities, good segmentation, and the discipline to work your system consistently. The Bottom Line If you're in Dylan's situation with limited tools and limited product, here's your game plan: Stop worrying about what you don't have and focus on maximizing what you do have. Build a simple segmentation system using whatever tools are available. Create detailed buying profiles for all your accounts so you know exactly who to call when specific products become available. Work your account coverage pyramid from top to bottom, always prioritizing your highest value customers. Sell out of everything, even the less popular products, so you have leverage when talking to ownership about compensation. The reality is that most sales challenges aren't about having the perfect tools or unlimited resources. They're about having the discipline to work a proven system consistently, even when conditions aren't ideal. That's how you win in sales. That's how you hit your numbers. And that's how you build a foundation of skills that will serve you for your entire career, whether you stay in a resource constrained environment or move to a role where the sky's the limit.

In this deeply moving episode of The Feminine Frequency Podcast, our host Amy Natalie is joined by Megsy Ann for a soulful conversation that weaves together feminine magnetism, grief, healing, and the reclamation of sensuality and pleasure.This episode explores what happens when a woman allows herself to be fully present with pain instead of running from it—and how that presence becomes the gateway to emotional alchemy, empowerment, and profound transformation. Megsy courageously shares her lived experience of loss and the initiation it created into a deeper, more embodied way of being.Together, Amy and Megsy unpack the societal expectations placed on women—particularly around motherhood—and how those pressures can disconnect women from their bodies, emotions, and desires. The conversation highlights the necessity of safety in emotional expression, the power of movement and body awareness, and the radical nature of choosing pleasure even in the midst of grief.This episode is an invitation to soften, to feel, and to remember that joy and sorrow are not opposites—but companions on the path of feminine awakening.Themes: Feminine magnetism is deeply connected to presence and synchronicity.Grief can become a powerful catalyst for personal and spiritual growth.Allowing pain creates space for healing and emotional alchemy.Sensuality and pleasure are essential, not optional, aspects of womanhood.Motherhood often comes with unspoken pressures that limit self-expression.Feeling safe to express emotions is foundational for healing.Movement and body awareness unlock deeper emotional access.Simple daily rituals can amplify pleasure and aliveness.Reclaiming sensuality is a revolutionary act for women.SPECIAL OFFERS:

It's the December Booklab, and while our booklabs are normally only for subscribers, we've made this one free as a little present to you—something to listen to while all the other pods are having a well deserved break.How this works: we've chosen two among the brave souls who have submitted their first pages (i.e. first 350 words) to us. As always, we read the page aloud, with no other information other than genre and (sometimes) title. We talk about what we read, how it was received, what we think we do and don't know about the book and what we should know. We offer constructive comments to these writers, and to all writers, on how to make that first page work as hard for you as it can.And then we answer the question: would we turn the page?Kids, those first pages have to WORK. People download a book, or grab an audio sample, often without the benefit of your flap copy or the beautiful cover, and you need to sell them on sticking around from that first minute. The two entries for this episode:* The Burning Truth is a commercial thriller centered on a woman whose sister's death is reopened when a teenage true-crime podcaster starts investigating a case that hits dangerously close to home.* Camil and Bloom is contemporary literary fiction about a middle-aged woman at a bar grappling with being ghosted, using sharp observational detail to explore loneliness, aging, and stalled lives.Our takeaway is that a first page must work with extreme efficiency: it needs to establish character, stakes, and story direction all at once. Vivid details and strong writing aren't enough on their own; those details have to be focused and clearly tied to the protagonist's emotional core so readers understand whose story this is and why it matters. A compelling hook helps, but clarity of perspective and purpose is what ultimately makes a reader turn the page.#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication.

Welcome to This Year in Work! As we countdown to Christmas, we've pulled together the standout moments from our Tuesday episodes across 2025 — the stories, segments and listener questions that defined the year. From new workplace vocabulary to tech scandals, CEO tantrums and the wildest listener dilemmas, this episode is a celebration of everything that made TWIW what it is. Word of the Year: Duck Shuffler Our unanimous pick. A perfect term for those colleagues making a lot of noise on the surface while quietly shuffling chaos underneath. Straight from Episode 202 — and yes, the Bosnia-and-Herzegovina reference still makes sense in context. Stories of the Year: Big Toddler Energy When we first discussed CEOs behaving like overgrown toddlers, we didn't expect the avalanche of DMs, confessions, and even a YouTube thumbnail featuring us as actual toddlers. From Episode 196. Rule-Bending Leaders From Episode 200, the unforgettable debate on rule-breaking founders… including Al's confession about his beer-delivery business days. The Great Employment Heist Episode 214 gifted us one of the wildest workplace stories of the year: a single engineer secretly working for 22 startups and earning over $1m without doing the work. Hot Take of the Year: Gossip is Good Rebecca Taylor argued that workplace gossip isn't just normal — it's useful. One of our most talked-about segments of the year (Episode 194). Truth or Lies of the Year: The triangle that never was. From Episode 240, the myth-busting moment that sent LinkedIn into meltdown. Workplace Surgery Question of the Year: My Ex is My New Boss!! From Episode 180 — still one of the most awkward, gripping dilemmas we've ever received.

Y'all, this conversation completely wrecked me in the best way. I sat down with Collin Jewett—someone whose orbit I desperately wanted to be in after just one 15-minute conversation—and we went DEEP.  Collin is the host of Superhuman Academy podcast, and he has this incredible gift: he sees beauty in people that others overlook. And not in a cheesy, motivational-poster kind of way. In a real, grounded, "I'm going to create spaces where isolated people can connect" kind of way. We talked about everything from his childhood on the playground looking for kids who needed friends, to why adult men are struggling with deep friendships, to what it means to be "not afraid of feeling any feelings." What we explored in this conversation: Why so many men lack deep friendships (and what that costs them) The difference between "positive judgment" and actually seeing beauty in someone How Collin learned his facial expressions were making people think he hated them Why cooperative play matters for adult male friendships The practice of actually answering "How are you?" with real emotional check-ins What happens when you don't have an inner critic (and why that's not narcissism) The cost of dissociation and "just doing the thing" without honoring emotions How emotions are both informational feedback AND motivating energy This episode is for you if: You're a woman wondering how to support the men in your life (partners, sons, friends) You struggle with adult friendships and feel isolated You're curious about emotional intelligence and vulnerability You're tired of the "just push through your feelings" approach to goals You want to learn how to see beauty—in yourself and others—without judgment Collin shared something that stopped me in my tracks: Most conversations men have are purely logistical. Work is problem-solving. Family conversations are scheduling. And when he asks men when they last had a deep conversation, they often say it's the conversation they're having with him RIGHT THEN—sometimes for the first time in a decade. We also got beautifully weird talking about Northern Lights, asymmetrical eyebrows, the "Blue Crew" in high school, and why liking yourself doesn't make you a narcissist (my therapist had to tell me this too, apparently). This conversation left me feeling appreciative, contemplative, and deeply curious. I hope it does the same for you.

David Choe is a world-renowned artist, writer, podcaster and TV host. He tells how as a child, he was made to believe he was destined for greatness but also that he was a complete disgrace, leading him to channel his energy—including deep shame—into art that brought him global recognition. He shares about his addictions that put him on a decades-long cycle of extreme highs and lows and that forced him to eventually acknowledge and heal the childhood trauma he was battling inside. David shows up with raw, authentic presence to show us how we can transmute pain and shame into our best creative work and, more importantly, how complete vulnerability, especially about our hardest experiences, is the ultimate tool for forgiveness and self-acceptance. He also tells us the actual story about early Facebook, Pee-wee Herman and Santa Claus. Note: This conversation includes topics and language that may not be suitable for younger audiences.
