Being stuck in survival mode is to be a human being. Survival starts at birth, you have needs to be fulfilled or you won't survive. Survival equals attachment. A cosmic connection utilizing spiritual intelligence has absolutely NOTHING to do with survival. Accessing it and moving into love and nonattachment is a beautiful commitment to thriving. Holding on to what you fear losing, will keep you in survival and therefore anxious, numb or depressed. The spiritual connection is always available, yet humans do the same shit, different day or year. And we haven't evolved internally from survival mode. The attachment you feel to people, money, outcomes; it's not love. Took me years to move from understanding what love is not, to actually inhabiting the space of nonattachment.

What happens when you choose to completely abandon a life of "quiet desperation" and trust the invisible, benevolent forces guiding your gut? In this returning-guest episode of the Miles to Zen podcast, host Shannon Miles Halliday sits down with men's intuition coach Doug Beitz Doug shares his deeply personal journey from witnessing his father's unfulfilled life to breaking the cycle himself. He reveals how he went from serving as a professional firefighter to building an 18-room tropical scuba dive resort in the middle of Micronesia—and later, making global headlines by successfully selling it via a viral worldwide raffle. This conversation dives deep into the practical biology of intuition, spiritual frameworks like the Gene Keys, and the sheer courage it takes to leap when the universe gives you green lights but shows you no road. Key Takeaways • Practical Tools to Train Your Gut Instincts Actionable advice on vocalizing desires to the universe, utilizing sleep intentions (writing notes under your pillow), and letting go of the need to control others. • The Biology of Intuition: Diet, Energy Clearing, and Pendulums How the acid-alkaline balance, Gene Keys, nature immersion, and biofeedback tools (like pendulums) literally alter your body's physical frequency to pick up intuitive signals. • Butterfly Signs & Real-World Synchronicities Doug and Shannon trade incredible, true stories of how paying attention to physical signs in the wild—like circling butterflies—averted near-disasters and confirmed massive life choices. Memorable Quotes "What's more scary for me... is me getting to 60 and saying two words: If only. If only I tried." — Doug Beitz "All of a sudden, the lights went green—and there wasn't just three lights, there were 75 green lights. But when I looked ahead, there was no road. It was like a cliff... I realised the road was invisible, but it was still there." — Doug Beitz Connect with Shannon Miles Halliday: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/milestozen/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@milestozen Podcast Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-miles-to-zen-podcast-with-shannon-miles-halliday/id1790460448 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EjVDgfTg9yc5m29sKMXzQ Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2440331 Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonhalliday/ Connect with Doug Beitz: Email: info@dougbeitz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

C.P., 2026 ONCA 333 and discuss how mental illness can properly factor into assessing witness reliability and credibility in criminal trials. The case involved allegations of sexual assault against a biological father and raised complex questions about a complainant who had a documented history of hallucinations, delusions, medication non-compliance, and street drug use during the period of the alleged offences. The Court of Appeal was asked to determine whether the trial judge improperly relied on myths and stereotypes about mental illness when acquitting the accused. Joseph and Diana explain the critical legal distinction between credibility and reliability, why mental illness alone cannot be used to discount a witness's evidence, and when case-specific evidence of hallucinations, delusions, panic attacks, psychiatric symptoms, or medication issues may legitimately become relevant at trial. They also discuss third-party psychiatric records applications, the evidentiary foundation required to raise mental health issues in court, and why judges must carefully avoid discriminatory reasoning while still assessing reliability based on evidence. This episode provides valuable guidance for criminal lawyers, law students, and anyone interested in how Canadian courts balance fairness, mental health considerations, and the search for truth in the justice system. ### **Chapters** **00:00** Introduction to R. v.

Hello! This is Episode 404. This is Way #4 in the ‘44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home’ series. It’s also the last episode of Section One, which takes you through Designing for Climate and Site. Over the past three episodes in this ‘44 Ways’ series, we have covered orientation, natural ventilation from breezes and protection from harsher winds, and how to design a home to naturally heat and cool itself through passive solar design principles. This Episode will help tie all of that together and give it a specific context for your project. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/404] None of the strategies I’ve discussed so far apply identically everywhere. What works best in a hot and humid tropical climate is different from what works in a cool, elevated climate. And so, the best way to understand which strategies apply most powerfully to where you are building or renovating is to know your climate zone. Because knowing your climate zone is what helps you understand how to utilise these design strategies in a climate responsive way, to make your home more sustainable, comfortable and functional overall. In this episode, I take you through what a climate zone is and why it matters so much, what the main climate types are and how they shape design priorities, how to find your climate zone, and how to use it as a filter when you are making design and specification decisions.

Hello! This is Episode 403. This is Way #3 of the 44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home series. Over the last two episodes, we have discussed designing for your site’s orientation, and considering how your home is positioned to work with the movement of the sun and prevailing breezes, and how your home is designed to maximise natural ventilation, whilst protecting you from harsher wind events on your site. In this Episode, those two design considerations come together into something larger. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/403] This is where passive solar design becomes a whole-of-home strategy. Where orientation, breezes, shading, thermal mass, and the building envelope work, not as separate decisions, but as an integrated system, designed to keep your home comfortable across the seasons without relying on mechanical or artificial heating and cooling. From a sustainability point of view, understanding your home as a building system is incredibly powerful. And what I consistently find is that, when these principles are applied well, the result is a home that feels different the moment you walk into it, and where you can feel much better and more comfortable, day in and day out. In this episode, I take you through how passive heating and cooling actually works in practice, the role that thermal mass plays in stabilising temperature, how to approach these principles for different climate types, and when mechanical systems are still appropriate and how to approach them intentionally.

Hello! This is Episode 402. This is Way #2 of the 44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home series. In Episode 401 we covered orientation, and understanding how the sun moves across your site and how positioning your home to work with that movement can transform its comfort, help it feel amazing to live in day-to-day, and reduce its energy use and requirements for artificial heating and cooling. In this Episode, we are covering another natural asset that is freely available on your site, and that’s breezes. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/402] Natural ventilation can be one of the most effective, lowest-cost strategies for keeping a home comfortable. And like orientation, it works best when it is designed in from the beginning, because the floor plan layout, window types, and building form all determine how well a home is able to ventilate naturally. In this episode, I’ll take you through why breezes matter so much for both comfort and sustainability, how to understand the specific wind patterns on your site, how to design your home to capture prevailing breezes, and how to protect it from the harsher wind events that may also occur.

Pastor Rod Parsley and Ashton Blaire continue their deep dive into Pentecost, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the supernatural power available to every believer. From Acts 19 to the modern church, this conversation unpacks why so many Christians feel spiritually disconnected — and what it truly means to be filled with the Holy Spirit. In this episode, they tackle some of the most misunderstood topics in Christianity: speaking in tongues, hearing the voice of God, spiritual authority, conviction, worship, and the evidence of a Spirit-filled life. You'll discover why the Holy Spirit was never meant to be a doctrine to debate — but a power to experience. If you've been hungry for more of God, struggling to discern His voice, or wondering if there's “something more” beyond religion, this episode will reignite your faith and challenge you to plug back into Heaven's power source. New episodes of The Rod Parsley Podcast drop every Tuesday at 8 AM ET.

Hello! This is Episode 401. And we are beginning something on the podcast that I’m really looking forward to sharing with you, especially if you’re wanting to build or renovate in a more sustainable way, but feeling curious, confused or even overwhelmed about what that might mean. This is the first episode of a podcast series called ‘44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home’. It’s inspired by my free e-guide of the same name, but in this series here on the podcast, I want to take some time to dive into more detail, actions you can take and ways you can apply this in your new build or renovation project, wherever you’re located. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/401] And the first ‘way’ I’m kicking off with is, for me, what I believe is the single most impactful decision you will make for your home’s sustainability and comfort. In over 30 years in this industry designing residential homes, I believe this way is also available to every one and every project, but only if you know and think about it early and embed it into your project’s design from the start. It’s where I’ve always started my projects, it’s where I teach my HOME Method members to start their home design, whoever they’re working with, and its significance cannot be overstated in how much it can improve the sustainability, functionality, feel and performance of your home overall. We are talking about designing for your site’s orientation. This is about knowing how your existing or new home is or will be positioned on your site or block of land, and how its overall layout is designed to respond to the movement of the sun across your land. All so you can keep your home cool in Summer and warm in Winter, without it costing a fortune in energy bills and artificial heating and cooling, whilst feeling fantastic to be in. In this episode, I take you through what orientation actually means in practical terms, why it belongs at the very top of any sustainability strategy, how to think about the sun’s movement for your site, and how to apply these principles in your project, whether you’re building new or renovating an existing home.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now--The End of Gatekeepers: Understanding Priesthood in HebrewsFor many, especially those coming from a Latter-day Saint background, the word priesthood is synonymous with a ladder of authority—a series of offices, keys, and lineages required to act in God's name. In this view, the Aaronic and Melchizedek priesthoods are essential roles that men must hold to administer ordinances and bridge the gap between God and man.However, a "crash course" in the Book of Hebrews reveals a radically different story. In the Bible, the priesthood isn't a ladder you climb to get more authority; it is the story of how God removed every ladder so you could finally walk directly into His presence.The Tabernacle: A "Keep Out" SignIn the Old Testament, the priesthood system served as much as a barrier as it did a bridge. The Tabernacle was designed in layers—the outer court, the Holy Place, and finally, the Most Holy Place. This innermost room, representing God's presence, was strictly restricted. Only the high priest could enter, and only once a year with a sacrifice. As Hebrews 9:8 explains, this system was designed to show that the way into the holiest place was not yet freely open.The Problem with the Aaronic SystemWhile many are taught that the Aaronic priesthood is a necessary office for today, Hebrews describes it as a "shadow system." Hebrews 7:18 goes as far as to call these Old Testament regulations "weak and useless" because they could never truly clear a person's conscience. They were a temporary fix that became obsolete the moment the true High Priest, Jesus, arrived.The Untransferable Priesthood of MelchizedekThe most significant point of tension lies in the Melchizedek priesthood. In the LDS tradition, this is a higher office given to many men. But Hebrews 7:24 says that Jesus holds His priesthood permanently because He lives forever. The Greek term used here implies that His priesthood is untransferable—it does not pass from one person to another.If Jesus' priesthood cannot be transferred, then no other man—past or present—can hold it. Jesus didn't come to restore a priesthood for men to hold; He came to be the Priest so that human mediators would no longer be necessary.The Veil is TornWhen Jesus finished His sacrifice on the cross, the massive curtain in the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. This was God's "Emancipation Proclamation," signaling that the restricted zone is now open to everyone.Today, we don't need a human gatekeeper, a temple recommend, or a specific office to reach God. Because of Jesus, every believer is part of a "royal priesthood" (1 Peter 2:9). We are invited to come boldly to the throne of grace, not because of our own authority or a certificate, but because of the finished work of Jesus Christ.
Hello! This is Episode 400 - can you believe it? How exciting! And so I want to take the opportunity to celebrate a little, and share something a little different in this episode. Whilst we’ve done more than 400 actual episodes on the podcast, I do believe that hitting Episode 400 officially is a big milestone. That’s over four hundred conversations. Me talking directly to you. Me talking with homeowners at every stage of every kind of project. Talking with architects and designers and builders and specialist consultants and industry professionals of every description. So today I'm not here to teach you a framework or walk you through a process or have a conversation highlighting a specific subject matter. I want to do something a bit different, which is share what I believe I’ve seen over those 400+ conversations, in the hope you find it super helpful, especially if you’re just starting out on your project journey. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/400] My experience as the architect behind Undercover Architect uniquely places me with a front row seat to far more projects and homeowners than being an architect working 1:1 with clients ever did. It’s enabled me to be involved in projects, in homeowners’ thoughts, hopes and fears at a scale I really never anticipated when I started Undercover Architect back in mid 2014. Being your secret ally in Undercover Architect means you share a lot more with me than when I was simply Amelia Lee, the architect working 1:1 with clients. Additionally, my involvement with builders, architects and designers both in Australia and across the world, and the networks I’ve built also with other industry professionals, suppliers and manufacturers, provides me with insights and an intimate understanding of what you, as a homeowner, are really contending with out there as you navigate your projects. The great, the good, the bad and the ugly. And so, with that in mind, I’d love you to consider this Episode the conversation I wish someone had with every homeowner before they started their journey of building or renovating. As always, if you'd like to access a full transcript of this episode and links to any resources I mention, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/400. Now, let’s dive in!

Step into the light of your own sovereignty and the authority of compassion. This guided Reiki journey helps you align your five minds—the Divine, Human, Heart, Gut, and Earth minds, to release old burdens and anchor a frequency of profound inner peace within the Circle of Life. Key Insights The Five Minds Alignment: When we align the Divine, Human, Heart, Gut, and Earth minds. This integration allows for "conscious choice" and a clear connection to your authentic intellect and intuition. The Authority of Compassion: Compassion is an active, spiritual authority. In this journey, it is used to envelop and dissolve old patterns, cords, and injuries to the spirit, allowing long-held burdens to be lifted and healed. Belonging in the Circle of Life: We often feel separate from our spiritual nature, but your human spirit and divine spirit are one nature. By connecting with the "Divine Animal Kingdom," we remember that we belong in our bodies and on this Earth. Peace Within Duality: While we live in a "realm of duality," the spark of creation within your soul remains untouched. Accessing this inner peace allows you to walk through daily life with clarity and the stability like the Tree of Life. People Also Ask (FAQ) What is "Inner Sovereignty" in Reiki? Inner sovereignty is the awakening of your own inner authority and truth. It is the state of being aligned with your soul's knowledge, allowing you to make decisions from a place of wholeness rather than being influenced by external attachments or old beliefs. How does Reiki help release "cords and attachments"? Reiki flows around energetic connectors to old patterns or limitations. This higher frequency gently lifts these burdens, carrying them into the light to be healed and released. Why is "Receiving" emphasized in this journey? Many people are conditioned to give but struggle to receive. This journey focuses on opening the heart to receive the wisdom of the Earth and Heavens, which helps to replenish the spirit and maintain balance..

Megan and Erin discussed the importance of utilizing PSAT results to identify areas for improvement and prepare for future standardized tests. They explain how to access and interpret PSAT scores, focusing on analyzing specific subject areas rather than just the overall score. Megan emphasizes the value of reviewing results early, particularly for high-achieving students who could potentially qualify for National Merit Scholarships. PSAT Results Review Discussion Megan and Erin discussed the importance of reviewing PSAT results and establishing a feedback loop beyond just taking the test. Megan explained that while schools provide digital access to results through College Board accounts, many students may not check them due to forgetting about the test or not understanding their relevance. They emphasized that even late in the school year, reviewing PSAT scores can provide benefits for students’ preparation. Accessing and Using PSAT Scores Megan explained how to access and use PSAT scores, starting with logging into the College Board account and potentially creating a new login if needed. She noted that students may need a code from their school counselor to match the test taken at school with the account. Megan emphasized the importance of noting login credentials, as they will be used for multiple years, including for AP coursework and college applications. She also mentioned that PSAT scores are similar to SAT scores and not the primary focus. PSAT Scoring System Explanation Megan explained the scoring system for the PSAT, noting that the perfect score has been reduced to 1520, down from 1600. She advised focusing on the detailed breakdown of performance across four categories in reading and four in math, particularly highlighting the math categories: algebra, advanced math (including quadratics and Algebra 2), data, and geometry. Megan used an example of a 9th grader’s PSAT results to illustrate how to analyze the breakdown of scores. Knowledge Maintenance and SAT Preparation Megan and Erin discussed challenges in maintaining knowledge across different subjects. Megan advised that reviewing lost concepts requires more effort than casual review, especially if a student was completely lost in a subject due to poor teaching or lack of engagement. Digital Test Feedback Limitations Megan discussed the limitations of current test results, noting that students no longer receive detailed feedback on missed questions as they did with paper exams. She explained that while digital tests provide basic information about content areas where students struggled, they lack the ability to review specific incorrect answers, which was previously helpful for understanding mistakes. Test Results Review Strategy Megan advised focusing on percentile rankings rather than numerical scores when reviewing test results, emphasizing that students should aim to be in the top half rather than the bottom. She suggested using test results as an early warning system to identify areas needing improvement, rather than waiting until junior year to address gaps in academic abilities. Megan also mentioned that students can focus their studying on specific weak areas once they receive their results, rather than trying to improve everything at once. PSAT Results and Scholarships Megan explained how to interpret PSAT results, particularly focusing on the selection index and its relevance to National Merit Scholarship qualifications. She noted that while 9th and 10th grade scores are valuable for identifying strong test-takers, only 11th grade PSAT scores count toward National Merit Scholarship consideration, with candidates typically needing to be in the top 3% of their state with a score around 220 or higher. Megan also mentioned that while prestigious universities may not offer significant incentives for National Merit scholars, many other colleges provide financial benefits to attract these students. Score Baseline Discussion Megan and Erin discussed the importance of using PSAT scores to establish a baseline for academic performance and determine study focus areas. Megan advised against taking the SAT unprepared to establish a baseline, as the PSAT serves this purpose effectively. Megan offers suggestions for students who don’t have access to the PSAT at school prior to 11th grade. PSAT Practice and Preparation Strategies Megan suggested using College Board’s online practice PSAT tests, which include automatic grading and detailed feedback to help students understand their mistakes and improve their performance. She emphasized the benefits of taking a preliminary PSAT, whether in 9th or 10th grade, to get familiar with the digital platform and identify areas for improvement. Megan encouraged anyone with questions about PSAT scores or National Merit to email the College Prep podcast team at collegeprepodcast(at)gmail.com. The post 628: What Should You Do With Your PSAT Results (and How They Might Earn You Scholarships) appeared first on The College Prep Podcast.
Hello! This is Episode 399, and in it, I’m continuing my conversation with HOME Method members Jan and Landon, who are building a new home and granny flat as a Passive House in Sydney’s north. As a reminder: Jan and Landon are building on a site that has been in Landon’s family for over 70 years. Their new build project has been driven by clear goals around ageing in place, sustainability and lifestyle alignment, and they’ve worked collaboratively with their architect and builder throughout their project, involving their builder during pre-construction as well. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/399] This is Part 2 of the conversation you heard in Episode 398, so if you haven’t listened, you’ll find it at www.undercoverarchitect.com/398. And if you’re new to their story, I’d really encourage you to start at the beginning, because following their journey from the very first episode makes this one even more meaningful. We’ll pop all the links you need in the resources for this episode. In the last episode, we heard all about their construction progress, and how their builder’s prefab wall cassette system put the entire shell of their home up in just five days. In this episode, we kick off the conversation with a reflection on something that’s been really striking to witness, and that’s the sense of calm and confidence Jan and Landon have brought to this project. I ask them directly how they’ve arrived at that place, and what’s helped them trust their own decisions, even when those around them expected them to feel anxious. We talk about where they’re up to with their interior selections. This can be a stage that trips up a lot of homeowners, however Jan has taken a really thoughtful approach here, and it’s a wonderful example of knowing when to wait for more information before committing to a decision. We also cover the delightful surprises that construction has brought, the beautiful relationships that have formed with their architect and builder along the way, and I ask Jan and Landon what they are most proud of, and the advice they’d give to anyone who is right at the beginning of their own project journey.

Title: Calm seas don't make skilled sailorsSpeaker: Pastor Denis MurphyDate: 22nd March 2026Location: Liverpool, UK "Calm seas never made skilled sailors." This episode takes a close look at the story of Jonah and what it reveals about obedience, trouble, and the kind of hope that does not waver when the waves rise. Starting in Jonah chapter one, the message walks through what happens when someone runs in the opposite direction from what God has clearly said to do. The storms that followed Jonah were not random. They were the direct result of his own choices. But the story does not stop there. It moves through Jonah's prayer from inside the fish, the repentance of Nineveh, and the surprising anger Jonah felt when mercy was shown to people he had written off. The contrast between Jonah's response and God's consistent mercy is striking. From there, the episode connects to Luke 8, Romans 5, 1 John 3, and Revelation 7 to build a picture of what it looks like to travel through hard things with Jesus in the boat. Trouble may come whether you are going the right way or the wrong way. The difference is what you are carrying inside, and where you are headed. The Cape of Good Hope was once called the Cape of Storms. Once sailors learned to navigate it, an entire ocean of opportunity opened up. That is the picture of faith moving through tribulation toward a hope that does not disappoint. Key Points: Running from a clear instruction from God does not change the instruction. It only adds unnecessary trouble to the journey. Repentance is not just a feeling or a sentiment. In Nineveh, it showed up as changed behavior, and God responded to that. Faith is active. Accessing grace requires action, just as Noah had to pick up the hammer and actually build the ark.

This messages focuses on the profound truth that believers possess unlimited spiritual wealth because Christ lives within them. Drawing primarily from Colossians 1:26-27, the message emphasizes that "Christ in you, the hope of glory" means Christians have access to divine wisdom, knowledge, provision, and power far beyond their natural abilities. As you listen to this message, you'll be challenged to stop relying solely on your limited human resources and instead tap into the unlimited supply available through your relationship with Christ. Many believers live beneath their privileges, thinking too small and dreaming too little, when God has equipped them with everything needed to thrive. Dive into this teaching and journal the discussion questions below.Discussion Questions For You To Journal: Pastor Kerrick emphasized that 'Christ in you is your hope of glory'—how does recognizing that Christ literally lives within you change the way you approach daily challenges and decisions?The sermon contrasted relying on our own limited abilities versus tapping into the unlimited supply of Christ within us—in what areas of your life are you currently exhausting your own resources instead of accessing your spiritual inheritance?The message challenged listeners to stop being 'realistic' and start being people of faith—what dreams has God placed in your heart that you've dismissed as unrealistic, and what would it look like to pursue them in faith?

Hello! This is Episode 398, and in it, I’m speaking with HOME Method members Jan and Landon, who are back to share an incredibly exciting construction update on their passive house new build in Sydney’s north. This is the fifth instalment of Jan and Landon’s journey on the podcast. They’ve been sharing their story with us across Episodes 338, 339, 367 and 368, and if you haven’t heard those yet, I’d really recommend starting there to get the full picture of how this project has come together. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/398] As a quick recap: Jan and Landon are building a new home and granny flat as a Passive House in Sydney’s north, on a site that has been in Landon’s family for over 70 years. They’re both in their 70s and are building with very clear goals, to age in place well, to live sustainably, and to create a home that’s deeply aligned with their values and lifestyle. As retired teachers, they’ve brought a wonderful learning mindset to this project. They joined HOME Method in January 2024 and have used it as a real foundation for their preparation and decision-making all the way through. When we last caught up in Episodes 367 and 368, the project was well into design and the early stages of construction. Now, things have moved very quickly, and the home is actually taking shape before their eyes. Jan and Landon are living on the neighbouring lot to their construction site, so they can quite literally look out the window and watch their home going up. One of the most compelling parts of this episode is hearing about the prefabricated wall cassette system their builder uses, and what that’s looked like in practice on site. In earlier episodes, we introduced this system in concept. Jan and Landon walk us through the reality of it: visiting the panels being built in the factory, seeing the manufacturing drawings that translate the architect’s plans into something that can be precision-built offsite, and watching the entire shell of the house go up in just five days with a crane and a dedicated team. It’s a fascinating, real-world account of what this construction methodology involves, and of how the precision and accuracy embedded in every stage of that process directly supports their passive house goals. Plus, they share loads more helpful insights I know you’ll find super helpful for your project.

Hello! This is Episode 397, and in it, I’m going to talk about staging your project. Whether you’re building new or renovating, for a range of reasons, you may be thinking you don’t want to do everything all at once. And so, in this episode I’m going to share the things you need to consider, how to avoid mistakes, and what’s involved in getting it right when staging your project. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/397] This follows on from the last podcast, Episode 396, so if you haven't listened to that one yet, I'd recommend starting there. In that episode, I talked about Feasibility Studies at the start of your project, and how to understand your options and gather enough information before committing to a specific direction in your project. The thinking in that episode sets up a lot of what we're covering in this episode about staging, so it’s also worth listening to. Staging can be a smart approach in a project. If you can't do everything at once, or you're planning to live in your home while work is happening around you, or there are parts of your project that are a few years away, for example a pool, a studio, a second stage of renovation, then staging can definitely be a viable path. But staging without a strategic plan is where it can get expensive. And so, I want to make sure you have what you need to approach this in a way that works for you, and doesn’t create problems long-term. As always, if you’d like to access a full transcript of this episode and links to the resources I mention, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/397. Now, let’s dive in!

Accessing Greater Love by Leann Albrecht
In this episode of Coming Back to Ourselves, Ken Anselment sits down with Angel Pérez CEO of NACAC to explore how silence, solitude, and intentional time away can help leaders reconnect with themselves—and lead more effectively.Angel shares how a period of burnout early in his tenure led him to meditation, journaling, and solo time in nature. What began as a personal reset has become a core leadership practice.Together, they explore:Why silence and solitude are essential in a noisy professionHow slowing down can actually improve decision-makingThe idea of “working in seasons” instead of constant outputHow meditation sharpens awareness and presenceWhy time away should be considered part of your work strategyFinding awe—even in small, everyday momentsThe conversation also touches on gratitude, journaling, and the power of noticing what's already around us—but often unseen.For folks navigating pressure, pace, and constant demand, this episode offers a different path forward—one grounded not in doing more, but in coming back to yourself.(Recommended reading: Cal Newport's Slow Productivity: The Lost of Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout)00:00 — Introduction to Angel Pérez and the idea of “coming back to ourselves”02:00 — When you need to step away… where do you go?03:00 — “I turn to silence”: solitude as a leadership practice04:10 — Meditation as training (start small, build the muscle)06:25 — Silence as problem-solving: letting answers emerge09:00 — Solitude, rest, and showing up as your best self12:45 — “You can go faster by going slower”14:00 — Seeing the world differently after slowing down16:15 — Burnout → awakening: the moment that changed everything18:30 — Investing in yourself (and why it matters now)20:10 — Shenandoah: perspective, gratitude, and being a “tiny speck”22:35 — Holding onto silence after the moment ends24:00 — Accessing awe anywhere—even in the middle of a city25:30 — Gratitude journaling and capturing moments that matter27:30 — Creating a daily “fortress of solitude”29:00 — Time away as part of your work strategy (not separate from it)31:30 — Working in seasons and protecting your energy33:15 — Listening for the “whispers”34:30 — Noticing what's already there (the “trust the process” moment)36:45 — Final reflections: making space, slowing down, and coming back to yourself38:00 — ClosingThe ALP is supported by Human Capital Education.

Hello! This is Episode 396, and I want to talk about something that comes up at the very beginning of almost every project I hear about. It usually sounds like one of these questions. "Should I add a second storey, or extend out the back?" Or… "Is it worth renovating what we have, or should we just knock it down and build new?" Or… "We've got a blank block - do we go with a volume builder, or work with an architect or designer and do a custom project?" [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/396] And what all of these questions have in common is this: they come from a place of genuinely not knowing which direction to go. There are multiple options on the table. Each of them could potentially work. They can vary in budget and timelines and team structure and approvals. But you don't yet have enough information to choose between them with confidence. And so what a lot of people do - and I completely understand the impulse - is to just pick one. Pick the option that seems most obvious, or most affordable, or the one that someone recommended, and start moving forward. Because forward feels like progress. And staying in that uncomfortable place of not knowing can feel like being stuck. But here's what I've seen happen, again and again. People who make that early decision without doing the groundwork first often find themselves... sometimes months in, sometimes with significant professional fees already spent... discovering that there was a better option they hadn't fully explored. Or a constraint they didn't know about. Or a cost they hadn't factored in. And by that point, going back feels devastating. But pushing forward doesn't feel right either. In this episode, I want to help you avoid that. I want to share a way of thinking about this phase of your project that can genuinely change your experience of it. And I want to give you a clear, practical process for how to navigate this decision-making period... so that when you do commit to a direction, you can do it with real confidence and strategy. As always, if you’d like to access a full transcript of this episode and links to the resources I mention, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/396. Now, let’s dive in!

What if everything you think you know about nutrition is backwards… and the true source of all nutrients has been right in front of you the entire time? In this powerful solo episode, Darin breaks down one of the most fundamental, yet misunderstood, truths in biology: plants are the origin of nearly all life, energy, and nutrients on Earth. This isn't about ideology or diet trends, it's about core scientific principles that reshape how you think about food, energy transfer, and your place in the ecosystem. From photosynthesis and the origins of protein to the hidden inefficiencies of the food chain and the intelligence of soil microbiomes, this episode is a deep dive into why going closer to the source may be the most powerful shift you can make for your health, and the planet.

Many are not living God's best for their lives and are stopping short of what God desires for them. You will learn how to access the abundant, supernatural life that God has planned for you as you listen.
Hey everyone... This episode is a stream of consciousness check in following my 36th birthday. I talk about the moving goalpost that makes it feel like I never arrive. How I'm living inside the dream I had 15 years ago but it doesn't feel the way I thought it would. Learning to turn off my threat detector and find peace here and now. Accessing flow states vs. ego states. The guilt I feel for being happy in today's world. The kind of environment I want to raise my daughter in. And what A Course in Miracles says about war. If you want to read my diary, this might be my rawest entry yet. Hope you enjoy it.
Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
Are you living a life that looks great on paper, but feels like something's missing beneath the surface? You've climbed the ladder, checked all the boxes, yet relationships and real fulfillment seem just out of reach. The cycle of "almost, but not quite" can leave even the most accomplished individuals wondering why old patterns keep resurfacing and why true connection remains elusive. In this episode, listeners will explore how subconscious beliefs, habitual thought patterns, and unresolved emotional baggage shape the dynamics of love and connection. Through practical approaches like interrupting negative cycles, clarifying desires and values, and learning to rewire internal narratives, this conversation offers actionable steps to break free from unhelpful relationship patterns and begin creating the kind of intimacy and fulfillment you truly crave. Riana helps high-achieving women who've built a life they're proud of in their career, family, friendships, and growth, but still feel stuck in the same old love patterns. Through her signature method, she helps them rewire the subconscious beliefs and recode the nervous system responses that have shaped their relationships for decades, so they can finally create extraordinary love that matches the life they've built. Episode Highlights 04:01 Finding identity during life transitions. 08:31 Getting exactly what you ordered. 11:54 Rewiring neurology and internal beliefs. 13:01 Exploring therapeutic approaches. 17:24 Breaking negative thought patterns. 22:02 Accessing emotions to change behaviors. 24:39 Creating your vision board. 27:56 Shifting to positive self-talk. 31:44 Clearing out mental clutter. 35:04 Shifting mindset and frequency. 42:27 The power of forgiveness. 46:13 Steps to heal relationships. Your Checklist of Actions to Take Clarify Your Desires: Take time to specifically identify what you truly want in relationships and life, beyond vague wishes, by listing your non-negotiables and values. Perform the Away/Toward Exercise: Write out everything you don't want on one piece of paper ("away") and all that you do want on another ("toward") to bring awareness to your focus. Wear a Rubber Band: For 72 hours, wear a rubber band on your wrist. When you notice negative thoughts, snap them to create an instant pattern interrupt and remind yourself to shift focus. Redirect Your Thinking: When you catch yourself focused on the "away" list, immediately replace the thought with something from your "toward" list or its positive opposite. Cultivate Genuine Gratitude: If struggling to generate positive feelings, ground yourself in something you are authentically grateful for in the present moment. Serve Others: If feeling stuck, perform a small act of kindness to shift your emotional state and break negative patterns. Incrementally Improve Your Emotional State: Don't force a leap from low emotions to joy—focus instead on moving up one or two levels on the emotional scale at a time. Release the Old Story: Set boundaries around retelling painful past stories to others; instead, focus conversations on new goals and dreams to reinforce a forward-looking identity.

What if illness, loss, and hardship are actually signals guiding you toward awakening?Jason Shurka is an author, entrepreneur, executive producer, and truth-seeker devoted to helping people expand awareness and reconnect with their innate human potential. Through media, education, and emerging wellness technologies, his work focuses on advancing consciousness and encouraging people to live with greater sovereignty and purpose.Jason's life changed dramatically during what he describes as a profound dark night of the soul. Between the ages of 14 and 18, he experienced 23 shoulder dislocations, multiple surgeries, and a severe infection that nearly cost him his leg. Instead of breaking him, those experiences pushed him into a period of deep reflection and transformation that ultimately redirected the course of his life.Jason shares his perspective on death and dying, consciousness, and the idea that we are far more than the physical body we inhabit. His experience witnessing his father's passing reshaped how he understands life, loss, and the nature of the soul.If you're interested in spiritual awakening, holistic health, and the deeper meaning behind life's hardest challenges, this conversation offers a thought-provoking perspective.You'll learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:21] The real reason you get sick when everyone around you is sick[17:11] The injuries that almost killed Jason, and the one question that changed everything[36:46] Why treating physical problems without addressing the spiritual root never works[50:57] The law of oneness, and the subconscious programs running your reality[59:20] Time is the movement of light, and why your past lives are happening right now[01:23:40] The past life session that finally explained Jason's 23 shoulder dislocations[01:39:13] How the CIA uses remote viewers, and what that tells us about mass mind control today[01:48:36] Why a small number of high-vibration people can counterbalance millions[01:56:03] How a programmer trying to hack meditation accidentally built a healing deviceLearn more at thelightsystems.shop/lukestorey.
