My Guest: Scott Galloway is the New York Times bestselling author of books including The Four, The Algebra of Happiness, Post Corona, Adrift, and The Algebra of Wealth.  Notes: Key Learnings Routine speeds up time, novelty slows it down. If you want life to go fast, just spend it alone and have a routine and never bust out of that routine. What makes life interesting is diversity in people, because people are complicated, and relationships are complicated. Lean into your emotions to slow time down. If you see something that moves you, stop, think about it, ask yourself why it moves you, and try to cement that moment in your brain. Otherwise, you're not sleepwalking through life; you're sleep sprinting. "The greatest wasted resource in history is good intentions that don't get articulated." No matter how famous someone is, they love affirmation as much as anybody else. Good thoughts that don't get articulated are wasted. Absorb when you're upset and lean into emotions, good and bad. This sort of marks the day and slows things down. Otherwise, if you get up every morning, do the same thing, eat the same thing, have the same relationship, the week's just gonna go really fast. Reverse engineer your success to things that aren't your fault. What are the things that played a role in your success that you had no control over? Your luck, your good fortune. For Scott: big government, assisted lunch, Pell Grants, University of California, technology financed by middle-class taxpayers, DARPA, the internet, deep pools of capital, and acceptance of failure. His mom told him he had value every day. Scott's mom, every day, implicitly and explicitly, told him and communicated to him that he had value. That builds a basic confidence that manifests in different ways: the confidence to fail, approach strangers, believe you're worthy of love, that you'll add value to a company, and that you can ask for tens of millions of dollars from someone. When good things happened, he used to call his mom. Whether it was getting a bonus at Morgan Stanley or striking up a conversation with a woman at Starbucks and getting her number, Scott used to call his mom. Your parents can bask in your victory, and you can brag to your parents, and it's okay. If there's no one there with you, it's like it didn't happen. Scott travels for business and stays at really nice hotels, and inevitably gets upgraded to the penthouse or the George V in Paris when he's alone. But if there's no one there with you, it's like it didn't happen. Celebrate victories, tell people how much they mean to you. You have to call your friends, celebrate their victories, celebrate your own, and tell people how much they mean to you. Every day, no matter what, tell your kids you're proud of them and love them. No matter how much Scott's kids piss him off, at some point, he finds a way to say, "I'm proud of you, and I love you immensely. You know that, right?" He hopes they have that same kind of base or pillar of confidence he had his whole life. Having someone tell you they believe in you every day works. You don't have to be a baller or successful. Just having someone in your life and every day telling them they mean a lot to you, they can't help but not believe you after a while. Being a leader isn't about being the smartest person in the room. Scott used to think being a leader was being the smartest person in the room, and he had trouble, especially with other men, thinking if he acknowledged someone else was doing a good job, somehow that made him less impressive. You have so much currency as a founder or manager. If you're in a management or leadership role, much less a founder, you have so much currency to pull someone into a conference room and say, "You were outstanding in that meeting" or "I just read this, and I love this paragraph. God, where did you come up with this idea?" You literally see these people just light up. "If you're thinking it, say it." The instant you're thinking something positive about somebody, just tell them, text them, call them. Don't wait. We have a tendency to think other people are telepathic, that they must sense we think they're wonderful. No, they don't sense it. Articulate it. When you're on your deathbed, you're not gonna think "I gave too much praise at work and told too many people how much they meant to me." Young people need watering. If you don't give young people feedback and praise when they deserve it, it's like having a ton of capital and not spending it. Especially with young people, they need watering. Feedback is incredible compensation. Whenever someone does something good, Scott tries to remind himself via email. Then, when he does their review at the end of the year, it's like, " Wow, this dude is paying attention. That is a form of compensation. Give thoughtful reviews that show you understand them. Tell them what they need to develop to get to the next level. Pay for the courses they need. They're a single mom who needs flexibility and wants to make more money. That's compensation. "Become a clip machine." Certain people are clip machines: James Clear, Morgan Housel, Kat Cole, Scott Galloway. These are people who communicate ideas in ways that are instantly shareable and memorable. For leaders, becoming an effective communicator isn't optional anymore. You need to be able to inspire and move people. The ability to write well is the stem of storytelling. It forces you to manage your thoughts and think things through. It's difficult to be a great storyteller if you can't write at a competent level. Rank yourself across every medium and go deep on one. Look at every medium (texting, LinkedIn, short form video, TikTok, long form writing, speaking), rank yourself, listen to yourself, decide what your specialty is, and then go very deep into one. Figure out your medium and commit to being in the top 1%. Challenge yourself to be in the top 10% within a year, the top 1% within three years. Identify which medium you have skills in, then challenge yourself. If you're in the top 6,000 podcasts out of 600,000 that put out content every week, you're in the top 1%. "Social media may make you want to shower after you use it, but it's frightening how powerful it is." In terms of economic power and influence, it's frightening how powerful social media is right now. If you're a young person and you want to be influential or economically secure, you need to master it. Storytelling is the enduring skill to give your kids. Scott's core competence is storytelling. His superpower is attracting and retaining people who help leverage his skills. The most radical act in a capitalist society is not participation. Scott started Resist and Unsubscribe because action absorbs anxiety. He was sick of being virtuous and courageous on a keyboard or a mic and wanted to do something. "Ready, fire, fucking aim on this thing called life." Scott wants to dance like no one is watching. He's gonna be dead soon, and it's all going really fast. He doesn't want to look back and think about losing sponsors or what people thought was stupid. He wants to think, "Right on, I tried to do something." He wants to be that guy who was unafraid, who showed up with a carpool to try and make a difference. Your spending or lack thereof is a weapon hiding in plain sight. The government most quickly responded six years ago during COVID, not because tens of thousands of people were dying, but because the GDP crashed 31%. The president backs away from plans when the bond market or stock market goes down. Even a gnat on an elephant matters. Even if it's just a gnat on an elephant, enough gnats will take down an elephant. If you have economic security and people who love you unconditionally, you have an obligation to speak out. Sam Harris has this great saying: if you have economic security and people who love you unconditionally, then you have an obligation to speak out and speak your mind, because most people don't have that luxury. Do what makes you feel good about yourself. It's not easy being mediocre-looking; it takes real effort. Scott grew up very skinny with bad acne and thinks maybe he's a little too focused or self-conscious about his looks. America is ageist, and looks matter. New York is the ultimate tip of the spear for a capitalist society, and it's optimized for two people: hot women and rich guys. For everyone else, it's a soul-crushing experience. We can talk about the way the world should be and the way the world is. That's the way the world is. Start working out. Scott coaches young men: start working out. It's good for your head. It shows women and employers you're in shape, not just because it looks good (which it does), but because it reflects how you show up, that you have discipline, that you can commit to something. The rule of threes puts you in the top 5% of attractiveness. If you work out three times a week or more, if you spend at least 30 hours a week working outside of the house, and put yourself in the company of strangers (church group, nonprofits, sports league), just by doing those three things, you put yourself in the top 5% of attractiveness of young males. Anyone who's had great yeses has had a shit ton of no's. If you can be in the top 5% and learn how to mourn and move on from rejection, at some point, you'll be voluntarily celibate, which is awesome. There were hundreds of no's for you to get to a top podcast. You get used to no. No one has the right to a living or to reproduce. If you want to score above your class economically or romantically, get out a big spoon and get ready to eat shit. It's what everyone of us has done. "I'm constantly worried about my boys now." Scott didn't worry about his kids when they were little unless they were sick - they were safe and home. Now he's worried about them all the time: are they doing okay at school? Is the quiet one okay? His champagne toast moment would be celebrating his son's first year of college going well - having fun, a good friend group, a couple of dates, football games, and gearing up for sophomore year. Reflection Questions What things played a role in your success that you had no control over? Your luck, your good fortune. How does reverse engineering to those things change your perspective? Who in your life needs to hear that you're proud of them and that they mean a lot to you? When's the last time you actually said it? Rank yourself across every medium you participate in (texting, LinkedIn, video, writing, speaking). What's your specialty? Are you willing to commit to being in the top 1% of that medium within three years?

Friday was a busy day for economic data, including PCE and GDP reports. Joy Yang breaks down the latest numbers and reacts to geopolitical pressures on the market. She argues that the Iran conflict will likely not be over soon, which will continue to push oil prices up and impact investor sentiment. She thinks investors are staying on the sidelines, but notes that historically, markets tend to “absorb these types of shocks.” Joy looks abroad for opportunities, staying away from U.S. equities.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

How you think about getting older might be more powerful than you realize. Scientists have uncovered an unexpected connection between people's beliefs about aging and what happens to them as the years go by. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12150226/ We're often warned not to reveal too much about ourselves. Oversharing can make people uncomfortable, right? Maybe. But Harvard Business School professor Leslie John argues the bigger problem may actually be the opposite — sharing too little. In her book Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing (https://amzn.to/3ME0EVt), she explains how thoughtfully sharing personal thoughts, experiences, and vulnerabilities can strengthen relationships, build trust, and even improve professional success. Humans have a strange relationship with technology. Some innovations instantly become essential while others quietly disappear. New technology can spark excitement, fear, resistance, and creativity all at once. Vanessa Chang, Director of Programs at Leonardo, the International Society for the Arts, Sciences, and Technology and author of The Body Digital: A Brief History of Humans and Machines from Cuckoo Clocks to ChatGPT (https://amzn.to/4cqHjBE), explores how people historically absorb new technologies — and how those tools reshape the way we interact with each other and the world. When you buy new clothes, it feels natural to wear them right away. After all, they're brand new. But “new” doesn't necessarily mean clean. In fact, clothing can go through quite a journey before it reaches your closet — one that may make you think twice before wearing it straight off the rack. https://www.southernliving.com/should-you-wash-new-clothes-before-wearing-11885557 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Don't keep settling for clothes that don't last!

In this teaching, we examine supersessionism (replacement theology) and its common claim that the Old Testament contains land promises for Israel, while the New Testament is mostly silent, implying those promises are canceled or absorbed into the Church or Christ. The post Israel's Land Promise: Jesus Didn't “Absorb” a Map appeared first on Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner.

Have you ever noticed how your partner's bad mood can completely derail your day? Or how when your sister calls upset, suddenly your heart is racing even though nothing's wrong in your life? Maybe you walk into the office and instantly feel tense because your coworker is stressed, or you leave a phone call with your mom feeling drained and anxious for hours afterward.What's happening isn't a character flaw or a sign that you're "too sensitive." It's called co-regulation, and it's one of the most powerful forces in all your relationships. The problem? Most of us are doing it unconsciously, using patterns we learned as babies that no longer serve us.Today, you're going to learn exactly how co-regulation works in your brain and body, why your childhood experiences are still running the show in all your relationships, and most importantly, three practical skills you can use right now to stop the cycle of mutual dysregulation. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why you can't think your way out of emotional reactivity, and what to do instead.____________________________Full blog and show notes: https://abbymedcalf.com/what-is-co-regulationDownload The Co-Regulation Quick Start Guide: 5 Tools to Calm Your Nervous System in Any Relationship: https://abbymedcalf.com/co-regulation-guideJoin my online community, One Love Collective, on Substack: https://abbymedcalf.com/substack.

As both a science and an art, acoustics can make or break the way a space functions. In this ICYMI article-read episode based on "The Art and Science of Acoustics," by Armstrong's Kenneth Wood, published on the interiors+sources website on Oct. 16, 2025, we break down the fundamentals of how sound behaves in interiors, why ceilings and plenums matter more than many teams realize, and how designers can align performance goals with real occupant expectations. You'll get a clear, designer-friendly tour of common acoustic metrics and a breakdown of how these numbers work together in the real world. The episode also outlines the four levels of speech privacy (from confidential to none) and offers a simple, best-practice framework—Absorb, Block, Cover (ABCs)—including a “good/better/best” approach to specifying ceiling and wall systems. If you design workplaces, healthcare, education, or any environment where focus and privacy matter, this one's a must-save. What you'll learn in this episode: The four ways sound moves through a space and why material choices drive outcomes Why ceilings are often the highest-leverage acoustic surface (and how plenums become sound highways) What NRC, CAC, STC, NIC, RT, PI, and SPC actually tell you (and what they don't) How to set the right speech privacy target for open plan vs. enclosed rooms The ABC strategy (Absorb/Block/Cover) and a “good/better/best” spec mindset

Before you can express force, you must be able to absorb it.Day 25 focuses on force absorption — the ability to decelerate, stabilise, and safely manage load as it enters the body. This is one of the most overlooked skills in training, yet one of the most critical for longevity, resilience, and repeatable performance.Every step, landing, change of direction, or contact introduces force. When absorption is poor, that force is dumped into joints, connective tissue, or vulnerable structures. When absorption is well-trained, force is distributed, controlled, and redirected efficiently.This session develops:Deceleration control at the hips, knees, and anklesTrunk stability during load acceptanceTiming and coordination during landing and lowering phasesThe ability to slow down without collapsingForce absorption isn't passive. It's an active skill that requires awareness, positioning, and intent. This day emphasises controlled lowering, pauses, and transitions — teaching the body how to accept load before producing it again.This work directly supports injury reduction, cleaner technique, and better performance under fatigue. When you can slow down well, you move better, recover faster, and stay in the game longer.Absorb first.Control the load.Redirect with purpose.Day 25 strengthens the brakes — so the engine can keep performing.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

She brings decades of leadership in enterprise tech and now sits at the center of how AI is changing the way people grow at work. In this episode, Kimberly shares how learning becomes more powerful when it's personalized, embedded in daily workflows, and led by curious teams who treat culture as a competitive advantage.In this conversation, we discuss:How AI is shifting corporate learning from generic training programs to personalized, in-the-flow development tailored to each employee's needs.Why in-context learning matters more than traditional courses, and how AI coaching inside tools like Slack, Salesforce, or ServiceNow changes how people actually learn at work.What it means to turn L&D teams into AI model trainers who encode company culture, values, and knowledge into coaching experiences.How Absorb Software tracks AI usage across teams and uses dashboards and leaderboards to drive internal adoption.The role of outcome data in modern learning systems, and how tying learning directly to performance metrics changes what training gets delivered.The advice Kimberly gives early-career talent, especially women, about finding roles where their contributions are measurable and their growth is supported by culture, not just credentials.Resources:Subscribe to the AI & The Future of Work NewsletterConnect with Kimberly on LinkedInAI fun fact articleOn how Robert Plotkin addresses LLM regulation and legal advice for entrepreneursOther episodes mentioned on the show:AI as a Liberating Technology: Josh Bersin on Turning Routine Tasks into Superworkers Driving Trust, Creativity, and GrowthDr. John Boudreau, future of work pioneer and former Cornell professor, discusses the new definition of work

As we continue our brief year-opening series called "Back to Basics," we'll seek to open our eyes to an insidious threat to every person and group of people. It's the original threat to humanity and it plays itself out practically in a myriad of ways each and every day. Join us as we identify it and seek to bring it under the rule of Jesus Christ!

Internal Arts in a nutshell:  “Stability born of rigidity feels strong.  Stability born of shared load is strong.  On the path of evolution: learning to let the Earth move through you“Power and ease are not opposites.”I started the school — our organization — in 1994. Though I was, and am, the leader, my leadership style has never been typical. In talks I've given over the years, I've described it as “leading while following.”I try to feel the pulse of the time and the people within it. I ask for opinions, listen carefully, and do my best to filter out irrationality and anything inconsistent with our purpose. That process is not as easy as it may sound.Now, after more than thirty years of this way of working, I am on a much-needed partial sabbatical, which I plan to continue until spring. It has given me the opportunity to rejuvenate — mentally, emotionally, and physically — and, perhaps most importantly, the space to reflect quietly.I've noticed that the people around me don't quite know how to respond to this shift. But I'm certain it's good — not only for me, but for us, for our organization, and for our purpose.What follows are my personal reflections on this process.What I realized recently feels important — and very real.What's happening isn't a mood, or a belief, or a story I'm telling myself. It feels like a genuine physiological and identity-level unwinding.And interestingly—fascinatingly—enough, Dhanur Veda — specifically the art of archery in the form of sumo — is facilitating it.For decades, being a leader required something specific from my body, not just my mind.I had to stay upright when others leaned.Absorb uncertainty without losing myself to it.Make decisions while containing doubt.Hold responsibility in my body, not just in thought.That doesn't live only as ideas.It lives as chronic muscular tone.Subtle breath restriction.Readiness without rest.A nervous system that never fully stands down.Over time, that becomes a posture of self.Not fake.Not wrong.Just held.What I'm noticing now is that sumo, of all things, is undoing that pattern.Sumo is unusual among strength practices because it doesn't reward bracing.It asks for grounding instead of tension.Downward permission instead of upward striving.Load transfer through geometry rather than will.Trust in structure rather than identity.When it's done correctly, the body learns something quietly radical:“I don't have to hold myself up.The ground is doing that.”That's not metaphorical.That's proprioceptive.And once the body learns that under real load, it begins to ask another question:“Then why am I still holding this elsewhere?”So things begin to let go, which is described in Dhanur Veda as well as the ancient Chinese texts as a cultivation of the internal arts.That letting go feels both destabilizing and relieving.It can show up as fatigue.Softness.Emotional permeability.Needing bread and butter instead of discipline.Strength going quiet for a while.That doesn't mean leadership is disappearing.It means leadership is moving from effort to organization.From“I must hold.”to“I am held.”That transition always feels vulnerable — because the old pattern worked.Here's the quiet truth I keep coming back to:I'm not becoming less capable.I'm becoming less armored.And armor, once it relaxes, always reveals how heavy it was.This doesn't feel like collapse.It isn't regression.It isn't abdication.It feels like redistribution of load.The same principle I've learned in the lift applies here too:WhenSupport the show

Every new year, many young Nigerians ask how they can survive, grow, and change their lives, and that question is increasingly about finding viable businesses and skills rather than just jobs. One sector often overlooked is leather, linking hides and skins from the North to fashion, manufacturing, and export markets. On Nigeria Daily, we examine whether the leather industry can realistically absorb youth unemployment and what it truly takes to succeed in it in 2026 beyond the hype.

This is a Grave Talks EPISODE! Is it possible for an ordinary object to become something far more unsettling? In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore the eerie world of haunted objects—items that seem to carry more than just age and memory. From dolls and mirrors to heirlooms passed down through generations, countless people report strange activity tied not to places, but to things. Christopher Balzano, author of Haunted Objects: Stories of Ghosts on Your Shelf breaks down why certain objects appear to retain residual energy, emotional imprints, or even attract spirits unwilling—or unable—to move on. Are these items acting as anchors for the dead, or are they simply vessels absorbing human emotion and trauma over time? We examine whether an object itself can be haunted, or if it's merely part of a larger haunting that follows it wherever it goes. When something familiar suddenly feels wrong, is it imagination… or a warning? Once an object carries a story, the question becomes: can it ever truly be just an object again? This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #HauntedObjects #Paranormal #ParanormalArtifacts #CursedObjects #TrueGhostStories #ResidualEnergy #ParanormalPodcast #Unexplained #HauntedItems   Love real ghost stories?

Omar Farha discovered in graduate school at UCLA that he was wowed by Metal-Organic Frameworks – MOFs as they're called by chemists. MOFs were like sponges that could soak up toxic gases and other health hazards -- one of the most exciting and oft cited areas of chemistry.  So when Omar arrived at Northwestern University in 2007 it took him just four years to find two like-minded co-founders and start NuMat. The Chicago company designs custom MOFs that provide chemical protection, safe storage of toxic gases, and carbon reduction in energy intensive processes. NuMat has three facilities -- in Illinois, Wisconsin and South Korea -- employs about 80 people and has raised $78 million.Midwest Moxie's executive producer is Audrey Nowakowski.

On today's podcast, we are building on the word about light the Lord has been giving us.  Chuck Pierce just prophesied that we are about to absorb a new light in 2026 to give us what we have not had in past seasons.  We play that prophecy on this Podcast.  

The Fit Mother Project Podcast Episode 178 features a powerful and inspiring conversation with Lindsey Burwell, founder of The Patch Method. Lindsey shares her deeply personal health journey—marked by chronic illness, hormone imbalance, cancer scares, and motherhood—and how those experiences shaped her mission to help women heal at the cellular level.Together, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi and Lindsey explore why blood sugar regulation and daily detox support are two of the most overlooked foundations of women's health after 40. They break down how insulin resistance, liver congestion, chronic stress, and toxin exposure quietly drive fatigue, weight gain, inflammation, hormone imbalance, and brain fog—even in women who “eat clean” and exercise.The conversation also introduces transdermal nutrient delivery as an alternative for women who struggle to absorb supplements due to gut or liver issues. Lindsey explains how patch-based delivery can support metabolism, detox pathways, cortisol balance, immunity, and perimenopause—while simplifying daily wellness routines for busy moms.Key TakeawaysBlood sugar regulation underpins hormone balanceInsulin resistance affects women long before diabetesChronic snacking keeps metabolism inflamedMovement after meals improves glucose controlLiver health drives detox and thyroid functionModern toxin exposure overwhelms natural detox pathwaysDaily detox support matters more than short cleansesPoor absorption limits supplement effectivenessTransdermal delivery bypasses gut and liver stressCortisol balance supports energy and emotional resilienceSimple routines outperform complex protocolsFeeling better physically enhances motherhood and presenceMore About Lindsey Burwell and The Patch MethodSPECIAL DEAL: Go to https://www.instagram.com/the.patchmethod/The first 20 podcast listeners who send a direct message with the word FITFAMILY will receive free Patch samplesEveryone else who sends a direct message with the word FITFAMILY will receive 30% offWebsite: https://www.lindseyburwellwellness.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindseyburwellwellness/Podcast: The Biohacked Method PodcastApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-biohacked-method/id1834050652Spotify:

In this episode of Ageless Future, Regan Archibald sits down with wealth strategist Brock Fortner of Stone Century Financial to unpack how optimized health and intelligent money systems work together to create a truly ageless life. Brock explains the key differences between the Vanderbilts and the Rockefellers, why most family wealth disappears by the second or third generation, and how tools like trusts, permanent life insurance, and “family constitutions” can preserve both wealth and values for 365 years or more. They dive into tax strategy, the IRS “playbook,” cash-flow engines, whole life as a family bank, and the power of living in the “gain” instead of chasing a retirement nest egg. Along the way, Brock shares his three core wealth mindsets—genuine curiosity, stewardship over ownership, and generosity—and offers listeners a free copy of What Would the Rockefellers Do? to start redesigning their own financial legacy. Brock Fortner is the founder of StoneCentury Financial and a trusted advisor to high-income families, entrepreneurs, and top investors across the country. A Nashville native, he holds degrees in risk management and insurance, and a masters of finance from Vanderbilt University, and specializes in advanced wealth-building strategies using cash value life insurance, the Rockefeller Method, and private wealth principles. Brock is known for turning complexity into clarity and helping clients build systems that accelerate financial independence. He wrote the foreword to What Would The Rockefellers Do? and works closely with elite communities like The Lifestyle Investor and Tribe of Investors. BROCK:Website: https://stonecenturyfinancial.com/Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brockfortnerGet a copy of Brock's book! https://stonecenturyfinancial.com/book AGELESS FUTURE:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE AGELESS FUTURE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: Here's the info scoop: everything on this channel is purely for educational and informational kicks—definitely not medical advice.

In this episode of Creating Your Ageless Future, Regan Archibald delivers a powerful deep dive into the science of body composition, metabolic aging, and the peptides reshaping modern regenerative medicine. He breaks down the “Ageless Axis”—the brain, muscle, and heart—and explains how blood sugar, inflammation, mitochondrial function, and visceral fat determine how quickly we age. Regan shares emerging breakthroughs in GLP-1s, Tesamorelin, CJC-1295, AOD9604, and the “Wolverine stack” (BPC-157 + TB500), and reveals how peptides act as metabolic reset systems rather than dependency-forming drugs. Along the way, he celebrates real client transformations, exposes misconceptions about weight loss drugs, explains why muscle is the antidote to gravity, and updates listeners on new Ageless Future pharmacy innovations. This episode is part science class, part biohacking blueprint—everything you need to build a younger, stronger, more resilient future. AGELESS FUTURE:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE AGELESS FUTURE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: Here's the info scoop: everything on this channel is purely for educational and informational kicks—definitely not medical advice.

Hi everyone, welcome back to The Chai on Life Podcast! I'm so happy to be back after a postpartum hiatus. Baruch Hashem I am so grateful for the little miracle baby that I now have in my life and so grateful to have had the quality time with him and now so grateful to be able to focus back on the podcast a bit more. Gd willing, I will be doing a full episode on the birth story and some reflections from that, so if that's interesting to you stay tuned. But now, I've been busy working on some interviews with really incredible people and I am so excited to share them.Today's episode is with Shoshana Judelman. I got connected to Shoshana through Midreshet Rachel — she is a teacher there now and has always been passionate about teaching Torah and Jewish History. She holds a Bachelor's in History and a Master's in Jewish History. She made aliyah with her husband and six children to Efrat in 2013. In addition to teaching at MRC, Shoshana teaches Chassidus for the Shirat David Community in Efrat as well as for BeOr Panecha in Elazar. She is a guide in Poland with JRoots and co-leads inspirational trips to Ukraine and around Eretz Yisroel. Shoshana has also been a guide at Yad Vashem since 2014.In this episode, she is sharing so much about her connection to the world of Chassidus, what we can learn from it and how we can connect to Chanukah more deeply through its teachings. She speaks about:-How she got into Chassidus and became a baal teshuva-What the difference is between Chassidus and other perspectives on Torah-How we can interpret the world through the lens of our human soul and Gdly soul which was a really interesting and helpful teaching-What it really means that just a little bit of light can dispel a lot of darkness (with a really great mashal included in that)-How to cope when it feels like the darkness is getting darker, whether in your own personal world or in the world at large-How you can personally connect through the lighting of the Chanukah candles and practically a great tip if you have a busy household and it's hard to focus when your family is lighting together-Her own personal struggle at the moment and how she's dealing with it and becoming closer with Hashem in the process. This was so beautiful I was really getting emotional …and so so much more!To daven for Shoshana, her full name is Shoshana Yonah bat AidelLearn more from Shoshana here.

The top lawyers at the largest publicly traded companies in America are being asked to wear many hats at once—and also getting paid handsomely to do so. That's the takeaway from a recent story by Bloomberg Law senior reporters Brian Baxter and Andrew Ramonas, who crunched data from SEC filings of S&P 500 companies and found out how much these attorneys are making. Alphabet's J. Kent Walker Jr. leads the list with a total compensation package exceeding $30 million. On this episode of our podcast, On The Merits, Baxter and Ramonas talk about who these highly paid executives are, the new responsibilities they have, and why they don't always hold the titles of "general counsel" or "chief legal officer" at their respective companies.

About this EpisodeThis episode is a little different from the usual Think Like a Game Designer conversation. Instead of a freeform discussion, I came prepared with a curated list of questions to guide the conversation, giving us a structured look into Jordan's creative process, his philosophies on innovation, and the lessons he's learned over decades of building worlds. The result is a fast-paced, insight-packed episode that feels like sitting in on a masterclass in game design.About Jordan WeismanJordan Weisman is a legendary figure in interactive entertainment, whose career spans tabletop games, video games, theme parks, and beyond. As the creator of Battletech, Shadowrun, and Crimson Skies, and the founder of iconic companies like FASA and WizKids, Jordan has shaped generations of players and creators alike. His work is defined by boundless curiosity, fearless experimentation, and a lifelong commitment to collaborative storytelling.In this episode, Jordan and I explore what it means to think small, fail boldly, and keep learning no matter how much success you've had. We discuss how curiosity drives innovation, why emotional courage is more important than financial risk, and how respect—for yourself, your team, and your audience—is at the heart of great creative work. Whether you're just starting your design journey or looking to rekindle your passion after decades in the industry, Jordan's insights offer a masterclass in staying creative for life.Think Like A Game Designer is a reader-supported publication.

(00:01:33)* During the pandemic, he rediscovered model building and diorama crafting, a childhood hobby that brings him therapeutic joy.* He enjoys it because it's tangible, visual storytelling where you can actually see progress, a much different process than game design, which often feels abstract or slow.What do you love about that kind of model building and creating? (00:04:05)* It aligns with Jordan's love of world-building and storytelling when creating small, detailed scenes that tell a story visually.* It's satisfying because each session produces visible progress, reinforcing creativity and immersion.What is advice that you would give to someone that's just starting out in your industry? (00:04:06)* Think small. Beginners often aim for massive projects like the ones they admire.* Start with something you can finish using your own limited resources.* Completion and execution teach more than ideas ever will.* Focus on learning through doing, not imagining.Now let's flip to the other side of the equation: what do you see as an important lesson that industry veterans need to learn? Or put another way, what advice do you think your older self might give to you? (00:06:30) * Avoid hubris. Experience can blind you. Everything you know might be wrong.* Listen to young minds. Youth brings creativity because it hasn't learned what's supposedly impossible.* Over time, past failures make people too cautious; veterans must keep their beginner's mindset.* Innovation demands courage to look foolish publicly; fear of embarrassment kills creativity.* Stay humble, keep experimenting, and reassess old assumptions regularly.Are there any practices or rituals or ways that you try to keep yourself in that beginner's mind? How can one get the advantages of experience and minimize the disadvantages? (00:08:09)* You must be willing to “go face first into the mud.”* As he said in the previous question, public embarrassment is the price of innovation.* Surround yourself with young thinkers, question assumptions, and resist dismissing ideas based on past failures.* Always check whether past lessons still apply, because markets and contexts change. Jordan gives an example of a failed company born from his overconfidence, where he didn't re-research the market because he assumed he already knew it.What do you consider the most important skills to cultivate for your profession, and how do you cultivate these skills? (00:15:13)* Endless curiosity: Study adjacent fields like comics, fiction, tech—anything that feeds creative cross-pollination.* Build a box: Instead of “thinking outside the box,” define constraints clearly to evaluate ideas. For example: He designed Mage Knight by creating a checklist of problems (ease of entry, low cost, retailer needs) and solving within that “box.”* He values self-education: when he didn't know toy manufacturing, he paid a small company to teach him the process.So let's get to the areas where the industry or you have been dead wrong. What common advice do you hear about your industry that is dead? (00:24:26)* “Nothing is ever dead.” Genres, mechanics, and IPs always come back (vinyl, RPGs, etc.) * When people say something's over, it's actually ready for reinvention.* He used to believe in-person collaboration was essential, but remote work proved him wrong.* He often misjudged products (like thinking Funko Pops would flop).* Absorb wisdom but not edicts.* Success and failure are cyclical, making timing and humility matter more than certainty.What books, articles, or learning resources have had the biggest impact on you? And if there are any key takeaways that stuck with you that come to mind? (00:30:53)* Mentions Reed Hastings' book (Netflix culture) and Creativity, Inc. by Ed Catmull (Pixar). The value here is the small-team principles and leadership lessons, though he's skeptical of the “find five geniuses” model.* His biggest lessons came from mentors, not books: Mark Miller (creator of Traveller): taught him kindness and professionalism. His father, Mort Weissman: joined FASA, ran the business side, and kept it alive.* He emphasizes mentorship, respect, and kindness as lasting business principles.What is the right way to find a partner? (00:33:14)* Finding a partner is like finding a life mate: talk about goals, work habits, expectations.* Negotiate the “prenup” early, meaning you should decide how you'll split if things go wrong.* Avoid the naive approach he took (asking friends at the table).What about systems, software, and tools that have had a big impact on your workflow?(00:38:18)* Internal tool: his “box” process for evaluating ideas.* Software: Slack (no internal email, all communication centralized), Google Docs (collaboration), ClickUp/Jira (task tracking).* Avoid “Not Invented Here” syndrome: don't build tools you can buy.* Focus on your core innovation; outsource or use existing solutions for everything else.* Reuse mechanics unless your innovation demands new ones.* Let your team choose tools bottom-up instead of enforcing top-down.What's your favorite project, and what lessons did you learn from it? (00:45:46)* His favorite is always the one he's working on now, but emotionally, Shadowrun and Crimson Skies stand out. Shadowrun came from trying to differentiate from Cyberpunk and combining fantasy with cyberpunk via the Mayan calendar. Crimson Skies was born from personal burnout after his wife pushed him to rediscover his passion. It led to reinvention and eventually Microsoft's acquisition of his company.* His lesson here is that passion and reinvention are crucial; listen to loved ones and know when to move on from stale success.You can find the previous episode with Jordan below: This is a public episode.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1149: We're live outside of EV Auto in Brentwood. Today, we look at how automakers have relatively kept car prices normal despite rising tariffs. Plus, Waymo and Lyft are teaming up to bring autonomous rides to the streets of Music City.Automakers have kept price hikes at bay despite billions in tariff-related costs from the Trump-era trade war. But the pressure is building—and price increases may be just around the corner.Automakers like GM and Ford are absorbing up to $5 billion and $3 billion respectively in tariff-related costs.Despite this, MSRPs have remained relatively flat—up less than 1% between March and August, per Edmunds.Some costs are being quietly passed along via fees like delivery, which jumped 8.5% to $1,507.Analysts expect prices to gradually increase as tariffs stick, with focus shifting to more profitable models.Hyundai's Randy Parker: “Our priority remains ensuring that we're competitive through affordability.”Waymo has announced a new partnership with Lyft to launch a robotaxi service in Nashville, with public access planned for 2026. The collaboration reflects a growing trend in autonomous mobility partnerships.Testing of Waymo's all-electric, self-driving Jaguar I-Pace vehicles begins in the coming months.Lyft will manage fleet services via its Flexdrive subsidiary, including maintenance and depot operations.Riders will first access vehicles through the Waymo app, with Lyft integration to follow.The deal mirrors Waymo's arrangement with Uber but gives users more choice in how to hail rides.“We're excited to partner with Lyft again to bring our Waymo Driver to more people,” said Tekedra Mawakana, co-CEO of Waymo.Mental health is quickly becoming Gen Z's top priority, outpacing physical health and academics. Retailers are responding by centering campaigns around well-being, using purpose-driven strategies to build trust and authentically engage young consumers.PacSun's “Youth Report” found 42% of Gen Z consumers rank mental health as their top life priority.Lululemon's research showed 89% of those with “wellbeing burnout” cite loneliness, and many feel overwhelmed by mixed wellness advice.L.L.Bean and Mental Health America found 79% of respondents say outdoor time improves mental health.Dunnhumby data showed Gen Z prioritizes mental health more than any other generation.“We have a unique opportunity to engage...to help them prioritize mental health,” said American Eagle's Jennifer Foyle.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Have you ever been on the receiving end of a guilt trip, or had someone unload all their drama onto you, leaving you unsure how to respond? If so, this episode is for you. Today's conversation is inspired by a simple yet powerful quote: “Observe, don't absorb.” It's a real skill to witness someone else's energy or negativity without taking it on as your own—and learning how not to internalize other people's stuff takes awareness and practice.Get your free Wholehearted Living journal prompts. https://calm-sun-843.myflodesk.com/x5yo2oyoyuBook a free discovery coaching call: www.ella-hooper.comFollow me on Instagram:@ella.hooper__

In part 2 of the 5 part educational series on the 90 Essential Nutrients, Dr. Wallach explores the power of the 90 Essential Nutrients in the body systems to restore good health. We are what we absorb, and food that is depleted in nutrients leads to a body deficient in critical building blocks to restore health.
