Podcasts about Acosta

What happens when a woman who spent decades holding everyone else together finally has no choice but to let go? In episode 265 of Joy Found Here, Florence Acosta — former Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, healthcare executive, and the person everyone leaned on — shares how a stroke at 50 became the moment that shattered her old identity and cracked her wide open. Her story is a powerful reminder that sometimes the body says stop long before we ever will.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(3:46) How Florence went from holding everything together to having a stroke at 50(6:05) Why chronic givers struggle to receive — and the mindset keeping them stuck(7:43) The sisterhood circle that cracked open her awareness around control and letting go(11:51) The childhood moment at age three that silently took her voice for decades(13:17) How writing on Substack became an unexpected act of reclaiming her voice(20:54) How the Miracle Morning helps Florence create space and stay grounded in recovery(23:04) The "Question of the Day" ritual she runs for her Substack subscribers(24:15) Florence's new business venture with her sister — and why she broke her own rule(26:41) Her "C-cubed" self-care approach: cooking, crocheting, and creative writing(31:03) Why people want to help — and how telling them how changes everythingFlorence Acosta spent nearly 30 years in healthcare — first as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, then as executive director of a surgical center — carrying the weight of patients, teams, and everyone around her without ever pausing to fill her own cup. At 50, a stroke caused by an undetected arteriovenous malformation forced her to stop, and through the slow road of recovery, a women's sisterhood circle, and the discovery of writing, she found the voice she had quietly lost decades before. Today she writes about intentional living, mindset, and personal development through her Substack publication Becoming You with Florence Acosta.In this episode, Florence shares how decades of over-giving as both a healthcare professional and the person everyone leaned on ultimately led to her stroke — and how that rupture became the catalyst for rebuilding on her own terms. She traces her lifelong silence back to a childhood moment at age three, and how Substack became the unexpected place where she finally reclaimed her voice. Florence also opens up about her Miracle Morning practice, a new business venture with her sister, and her "C-cubed" self-care approach — cooking, crocheting, and creative writing — while delivering a powerful message to fellow chronic givers: open your hands and let people in before life forces you to.Connect with Florence Acosta:SubstackInstagramLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Send us Fan MailMaster the art of the quick turnaround as we dive into the specifics of applying judges' feedback between bodybuilding competitions. Join Jami and Greg DeBernard alongside top IFBB Pro Olympians as they reveal why over-correcting is the most common mistake athletes make after a show.

We explore the nuances of peaking, from managing tan issues to finding the right level of fullness for the stage. This episode is a masterclass in the 'chess moves' required to climb the rankings in record time. What You'll Learn: How to interpret 'tighter' or 'fuller' without ruining your conditioning. The impact of stage lighting and judge seating on the feedback you receive. Why hearing 'don't change anything' is a unique mental challenge. Techniques for using refeeds and sodium to fix flatness between shows. How posing can create the illusion of muscle density you haven't yet built.Elevate your stage presence by mastering the subtle details of competition adjustments. #bodybuilding #ifbbpro #fitnessfeedback #competitionsuccess #posingtipPhoebe Hagan is an IFBB Bikini Pro from the United Kingdom, known for her elite-level physique, precision posing, and competitive success on the global bodybuilding stage.

The new reporting centers on former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter, who launched the original mid-2000s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and says the case was undermined once federal prosecutors took control. According to the account, Reiter's department had gathered evidence from roughly two dozen alleged victims and their families, only to see the matter drift toward the now-infamous 2007 secret plea negotiations led by then-U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta. The key political connection is that Acosta's office was operating under George W. Bush's Department of Justice, and Reiter says Acosta told him that “Main Justice” in Washington was providing guidance while Epstein's defense team was successfully stalling the case.That detail matters because it pushes scrutiny beyond Acosta alone and back toward DOJ leadership in Washington during the Bush administration, where the Epstein deal was being handled as more than a routine local prosecution. Epstein ultimately avoided federal sex-trafficking charges at the time and pleaded guilty in state court to solicitation-related charges, despite investigators having identified dozens of possible victims. The account also revisits the explosive claim that Acosta later told Trump transition officials he had been told Epstein “belonged to intelligence” and to leave the case alone, a statement that has long fueled questions about who protected Epstein, why the original case was buried, and how many people in power helped turn a sprawling abuse investigation into a sweetheart deal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Explosive Report Drags President George W.

Mark Filip's importance in the Epstein non-prosecution deal is that he was not some minor bureaucratic name floating around the edges of the case. As Deputy Attorney General under Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Filip was part of the highest tier of DOJ leadership when the federal government approved the deal that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to avoid a sweeping federal prosecution. The agreement itself was negotiated in Florida, but the political and institutional muscle behind it came from Washington, where Epstein's powerhouse defense team had direct access to senior DOJ officials. Filip's sign-off mattered because it showed that the deal was not merely the product of one local U.S. Attorney's office going rogue; it had the blessing, awareness, or at minimum the acquiescence of DOJ leadership at the highest levels.That is why focusing only on Alex Acosta misses the larger architecture of what happened. Acosta was the U.S. Attorney in South Florida, and he became the public face of the sweetheart deal, but the real gravity was above him. The Epstein defense team pushed the matter into Main Justice, where Mukasey and Filip sat atop the department, and the final outcome reflected the power of that intervention. The deal shielded Epstein, protected unnamed potential co-conspirators, kept victims in the dark, and turned what should have been a major federal sex-trafficking prosecution into a managed local resolution. In that sense, Filip and Mukasey were not background characters in the Epstein plea deal; they were part of the DOJ brass whose authority helped make the arrangement possible.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Pecco Bagnaia lo aveva detto: attenti a Marquez al Balaton Park! Aveva ragione ed anche se Marc si era schermito il 9 volte iridato ha dominato. Dopo la Sprint, il Gran Premio, sempre e solo con Pedro Acosta come degno avversario.La gara è stata caratterizzata dallo strike iniziale di Jorge Martin che oltre al suo compagno di squadra ha tirato in terra Diggia (che poi è ripartito), Raul Fernandez e Fermin Aldeguer, errore per il quale gli è stato comminato un doppio long lap penalty per il prossimo Gran Premio.Ora Marquez ha recuperato un bel po' di punti sui fuggitivi ma Bezzecchi è ancora saldamente in testa al campionato.Vedremo da Brno come proseguirà l'inseguimento. Se proseguirà. Ne parlato, Carletto, Matteo e Marco. Paolo chiude la Live entrando in ritardo, ma non a gamba tesa.

Last year was the first time we went to Balaton, and the result wasn't great. This year? Hate the track, love the riders. And I say 'riders', plural, because it takes two to tango. And people, did we get one hell of a dance between Acosta and Marquez today. Yes, the king is back and schooling everyone with 1,5 functional arms. Keen readers might notice that this is slightly less than the average of 2, but leave it to Marquez to make the best of it and show everyone how it's done. And if that doesn't make you excited, then just think:He's only going to get better from here. Who also keeps steadily doing better is Pedro Acosta, showing us how gentlemen duel while speeding over the tarmac with Marc. He's making the KTM look good, perhaps even better than it really is. Now let's put him on a Ducati next year, and see what happens...So yes, Mat and Peter have got plenty to talk about. Also, is this going to be the year that the Bez becomes champion? You never know...---Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

A sorpresa (per lui) ma non per gli avversari nella Sprint del Balaton Ring abbiamo assisitito al dominio di Marc Marquez, davanti a Pedro Acosta e Marco Bezzecchi.Un confronto durato appena due giri, visto che il 9 volte iridato in appena due tornate ha archiviato la pratica.Ma insomma, Marquez è tornato o no, e cosa dobbiamo aspettarci dal Gran Premio visto che la sua spalla non è ancora in condizioni perfette?Ne parlano Carlo, Paolo e Matteo che dall'Ungheria offre un inside della situazione fra Ducati e Aprilia. E si finisce per parlare dei pochi posti liberi nel mercato piloti e dei piloti che (quasi sicuramente) saranno costretti a lasciare la MotoGP.

This week on The Antler Queens, we're breaking down one of the strongest episodes of FROM Season 4 so far: Donna's heart attack, Boyd refusing to let her go, Jade being right about the hidden door, the Roger doll horror show, Victor remembering the Man in Yellow's car, Sophia targeting Henry, and the giant flashing warning sign that Henry may be getting set up as the next Abby. We also get into the big mythology questions: are the fears becoming part of the forest? Is Donna connected to the town in a bigger way than we realized? Was Boyd right to resist Jade's plan, or did Jade prove he's finally the person everyone needs to listen to? And most importantly: are these people ever actually leaving Fromville, or is the ending going to be a choice to stay? 0:00 Welcome to The Antler Queens 3:45 Episode Recap Begins 5:50 Boyd vs Jade: Sacrifice, Fear & Leadership 7:24 Julie Apologizes to Sarah 7:38 Victor, Kenny & The Brown Car 8:02 Donna Brings Back the Settlement Horror 9:55 Sophia Targets Henry 12:26 Ethan Says Goodbye to Donna 14:11 Julie and Sarah Paint the Room 15:00 Boyd Refuses to Say Goodbye 17:00 Sophia Pushes Henry Toward the Dream Theory 19:15 Pancakes / MVP Picks 20:45 Top Five Begins 22:03 Jade and Acosta 24:11 Jade, the Rubik's Cube & Ragdoll Roger 26:10 Julie/Sarah and Victor/Ethan Bonding 32:01 Sass Boyd Has Arrived 39:39 Boyd vs Jade: Was Jade Right? 47:38 Fromily Debate Club: Boyd vs Jade 53:25 Bottom Five 56:04 Jade Crosses a Line with Boyd 58:00 Is Randall Being Set Up to Die? 63:16 Donna Needs Her Own Story 68:02 Could Henry Kill Victor? 71:56 Final Thoughts, Interviews & Sign-Off In this episode: Donna “dies” and Boyd yells her back to life Jade's vision leads to the hidden door Boyd goes full Rick Grimes on the wall Sophia puts blood in Henry's drink Victor remembers the Man in Yellow Roger becomes nightmare fuel with buttons Julie and Sarah have a surprisingly beautiful moment Fatima may officially be part of the town now And we debate whether Henry is being set up to kill Victor If you're obsessed with FROM theories, mythology clues, character breakdowns, hidden symbols, and the question of whether anyone is ever getting out of this nightmare town, you're in the right place.

Alex Acosta had a choice. As the U.S. Attorney in South Florida, he was not some powerless clerk handed a file and told to stamp it. He was the federal official whose office had reviewed evidence that Jeffrey Epstein's conduct could support a serious federal sex-trafficking prosecution. Instead of forcing the case into open federal court, Acosta's office approved a secretive non-prosecution agreement that allowed Epstein to plead to comparatively minor state charges, serve a wildly lenient sentence with work-release privileges, and shield named or unnamed potential co-conspirators from federal prosecution. That was the moment when the federal government could have treated Epstein like the predator prosecutors believed he was. Instead, the case was redirected into a backroom arrangement that protected power, preserved reputations, and left survivors locked out of the process.The most damning part is that Acosta later suggested the pressure came from above, reportedly saying Epstein “belonged to intelligence” and that he was told to leave it alone. Whether that explanation was self-preservation, truth, exaggeration, or an attempt to shift blame, it still lands in the same ugly place: Acosta did not stand up and blow the whistle. He did not resign in protest. He did not drag the matter into the sunlight. He did not force Washington to own the interference publicly. He took the deal, signed off on the machinery, and years later acted as though the decision had somehow happened around him instead of through him. That is why the Acosta chapter remains so poisonous: because it looks like a federal prosecutor faced with a powerful defendant, pressure from D.C., and a victim pool full of young girls — and chose institutional obedience.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Aprilia ha lavorato tanto e ha sfruttato al meglio le concessioni, questa la realtà: la RS-GP appare perfetta e ha piloti fortissimi. Ma, parallelamente, Ducati ha commesso qualche errore? La gara di Bagnaia, 13 giri in testa e poi gomme in crisi, dimostra che la GP16 è sbilanciata? Quando Diggia dice “lottiamo con le Aprilia ma anche con il nostro avantreno”, cosa intende? Con Renè al Mugello, con Bernardelle e Cadalora chiariremo la situazione. Comunque sia, grande Italia. Il dominio tecnico delle due case italiane è schiacciante, sabato la prima moto non-italiana è nona (e domenica è sesta): è la KTM di Acosta (“limitata” dopo i problemi tecnici?). Tra i promossi del Mugello c'è Pedro, poi Marc Marquez stoico al rientro, Aldeguer e Moreira. Honda in stallo e molto male Yamaha, con Quartararo dietro a Razga domenica e sempre più teso. Vietti secondo nella Moto2 di Gonzales dopo una gran rimonta; veloci ma intruppati gli italiani in Moto3, con Uriarte al primo successo e Quiles alla prima steccata. E Iannone mattatore nella Bagger Cup, che ritroveremo ad Assen. Ora la MotoGP va subito in Ungheria, al Balaton Park, per le rivincite.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dopogp-motogp-moto-it--4070022/support.

When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn't justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta's insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he'd been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google Drive

Alex Acosta is frequently singled out as the architect of Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 non-prosecution agreement (NPA), but mounting evidence suggests that he was more of a functionary than a decision-maker. As the U.S. Attorney in South Florida, Acosta did sign off on the sweetheart deal that allowed Epstein to avoid federal prosecution and serve minimal time in a county jail. However, emails and DOJ records show that once Epstein's legal team escalated their complaints, the matter was kicked up the chain of command to Washington. Acosta even reportedly told the Miami Herald that he was told Epstein “belonged to intelligence” and that backing off was not a choice, further muddying the narrative that he acted independently. The DOJ's Office of Professional Responsibility later criticized Acosta's judgment but stopped short of alleging misconduct.The real power players behind the Epstein NPA appear to have been then–Attorney General Michael Mukasey and Deputy Attorney General Mark Filip. When Epstein's lawyers petitioned to have the case reviewed, DOJ officials in D.C.—including those in the Criminal Division and the Deputy Attorney General's office—were briefed and ultimately approved the non-prosecution path. In other words, the final green light came from the top of the Justice Department, not Acosta's office alone. This recontextualizes the NPA as less a rogue local failure and more a coordinated decision at the highest levels of federal power. The narrative that Acosta alone bears the weight of the Epstein scandal not only oversimplifies the truth—it protects the very people who had the authority to stop it and didn't.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://nypost.com/2021/02/04/top-doj-officials-okd-epstein-deal-maxwell-lawyers/

Los agentes de la UDEF encontraron en la casa de Julio Martínez, amigo de Zapatero, casi 300.000 euros en efectivo escondidos. Además de billetes que ocultaba en el cuarto de baño, en un radiador, en una bolsa de palos de golf o una caja para vasos que descubrió la unidad canina. Requisaron también cuatro portátiles, 14 móviles y más documentación. El Partido Popular ha apelado a la coherencia del PNV. Esto después de que su presidente, Aitor Esteban, declarase que es irresponsable seguir adelante con la legislatura. El portavoz del PP, Borja Semper, se dirigió a los jeltzales diciendo que ''seguir sosteniendo esta situación también es irresponsable''. En Alcalá de Henares, en Madrid, el segundo teniente de alcalde, Víctor Acosta, de VOX, ha sido denunciado por acoso sexual por una funcionaria municipal. Además, cuenta con otra denuncia por acoso laboral de un empleado del ayuntamiento. Tanto VOX como el PP piden prudencia y respetar la presunción de inocencia.

Kenneth Starr's email to Mark Filip wasn't just a lawyer whining about aggressive prosecutors—it was a calculated appeal to the very power center that ultimately let Epstein walk. Starr complained bitterly that the Florida team was digging too hard and treating Epstein like an actual criminal instead of the elite figure his defense team believed he was. What Starr was really doing was pressuring Filip—one of the highest-ranking officials in the Department of Justice—to step in and shut down a legitimate investigation. And the troubling part is that the email landed exactly where Epstein's legal machine wanted it: at the top of Main Justice, the same place that would go on to bless the non-prosecution agreement. The narrative that Alex Acosta “acted alone” collapses under the weight of communications like this. Starr wasn't appealing to Acosta. He was appealing above him—because that's where the real decision-making power sat.Filip's role in all this is even more damning when you consider the final outcome. DOJ headquarters didn't just look the other way—they authorized the sweetheart deal. They were the backstop that allowed Epstein's legal team to bypass federal prosecutors who wanted to charge Epstein with crimes carrying real prison time. Filip didn't just receive the email; Main Justice effectively delivered what Epstein's lawyers asked for. The infamous non-prosecution agreement wasn't Acosta freelancing—it was Washington signing off. The email illustrates how Epstein's team successfully moved the fight out of Florida and into D.C., where connections, prestige, and pressure carried far more weight than the testimony of dozens of abused children.

Kenneth Starr's email to Mark Filip wasn't just a lawyer whining about aggressive prosecutors—it was a calculated appeal to the very power center that ultimately let Epstein walk. Starr complained bitterly that the Florida team was digging too hard and treating Epstein like an actual criminal instead of the elite figure his defense team believed he was. What Starr was really doing was pressuring Filip—one of the highest-ranking officials in the Department of Justice—to step in and shut down a legitimate investigation. And the troubling part is that the email landed exactly where Epstein's legal machine wanted it: at the top of Main Justice, the same place that would go on to bless the non-prosecution agreement. The narrative that Alex Acosta “acted alone” collapses under the weight of communications like this. Starr wasn't appealing to Acosta. He was appealing above him—because that's where the real decision-making power sat.Filip's role in all this is even more damning when you consider the final outcome.

When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn't justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta's insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he'd been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google DriveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Todd Conklin interviews Martha Acosta, a pioneer in human performance and instructional design, about using organizational "pain points" and paradoxes as early indicators of system failures. They discuss why near misses and workplace frustrations are valuable signals and how leaders can turn those tensions into opportunities for learning and improvement. The episode offers practical advice for managers: be present, look for pressure points across roles, and treat minor pains as diagnostic cues to prevent larger incidents. Martha translates high-level ideas into actionable steps leaders can use tomorrow.
