As gold and silver pull back from recent highs, one veteran trader says the setup is building for the next leg higher. Todd "Bubba" Horwitz, chief market strategist, joins Daniela Cambone to break down the critical signals flashing in the precious metals market. "I don't think there are enough metals in the world, silver and gold, to cover the amount of paper that is written on them and the amount of use that is needed," he argues. "The prices get suppressed." He adds that the current consolidation is healthy: "We are in absolute perfect condition right now to build on that next rally, because the longer these markets go sideways and consolidate… they're going to explode higher in my opinion."✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload The Private Wealth Playbook — a data-backed guide to strategically acquiring gold and silver for maximum protection, privacy, and performance.

Ireland and castles go hand in hand. With thousands scattered across the island, it can feel like there's one around every bend in the road. The real challenge isn't finding castles in Ireland — it's deciding which ones to add to your itinerary. Barbican Gate Rock of Dunamase, County Laois, Ireland This article is based on the Traveling in Ireland podcast, episode 331. Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. No matter the type of travel you enjoy—or the type of transportation you're using—you'll find castles that easily fit into your trip. With more than 30,000 castles and castle ruins scattered across Ireland, the real challenge isn't finding them… it's deciding which ones make sense for your route and the time you have. That's exactly the kind of planning the Ireland Travel Compass is designed to help with. It brings attractions and accommodations together geographically, helps you see what fits well together, and makes it much easier to build an itinerary that actually works. And if you'd like a simple way to start thinking about your own itinerary, I've created a resource that walks you through my TRIP framework – a straightforward way to avoid the most common Ireland planning mistakes and build a trip that feels manageable and enjoyable. 10 Castles in Ireland Worth Visiting With thousands of castles scattered across Ireland, choosing which ones to visit can feel a bit overwhelming. Here are a few of my favorite castles in Ireland—and why they stand out. Rock of Dunamase (County Laois) – The Dramatic Castle Ruin Rock of Dunamase may be one of the most atmospheric castle ruins in Ireland. The site dates back to the 9th century when it served as a stronghold of the Kings of Laois. The ruins visitors see today sit on top of a massive rocky outcrop and were largely destroyed during Cromwell's invasion in 1650. Even in ruin, the location tells you why it mattered: the views stretch for miles across the countryside. Traveler tips: Free OPW-managed site Rarely crowded Easy detour when traveling between Dublin and Kilkenny Short walk up to the ruins with sweeping views Driving through narrow country roads and farmland to reach it only adds to the experience. Lawn games in front of Malahide Castle : Crack the whip.By Aoife for Flytographer; Dublin, Ireland. All rights reserved. Malahide Castle (County Dublin) – The Fairy Tale Castle Just 10 minutes from Dublin Airport, Malahide Castle is a perfect first stop after arriving in Ireland. The castle itself offers fascinating guided tours led by engaging storytellers who bring the Talbot family history to life. But the estate offers far more than the castle alone. Visitors can enjoy: Extensive parklands perfect for stretching your legs after a flight Walled gardens A fairy trail Butterfly house Dining at Avoca café The grounds are partly free to explore, while the gardens and castle tour require tickets. During busy months (May–September), it's smart to pre-book the castle tour. Malahide is also very easy to reach from Dublin city center by DART or bus, making it a great half-day excursion.

Bunratty Castle beyond Durty Nellie's Bunratty Castle (County Clare) – The Irish Tower House Experience If you want to understand the most common type of castle in Ireland, Bunratty Castle is the perfect example. Tower houses — tall, four-story defensive structures — once dotted the Irish landscape. Bunratty is considered the most completely restored example in the country. Visitors can explore: Dungeon levels Narrow spiral staircases Battlements with views over the countryside Surrounding the castle is Bunratty Folk Park, a 26-acre living history village that showcases historic Irish homes and daily life. Highlights include: Traditional farmhouses and cottages Costumed interpreters A recreated village with shops, schoolhouse, and pub Bunratty is also famous for its medieval banquet experience, held year-round. These dinners are extremely popular, so booking well in advance is highly recommended. Kilkenny Castle viewed from the parklands Kilkenny Castle (County Kilkenny) – Ireland's Castle Palace Unlike many defensive castles, Kilkenny Castle evolved into a grand aristocratic residence. Originally built as a fortress, it was transformed over centuries by the Butler family — Earls and later Dukes of Ormond — who held the castle for more than 600 years. Today visitors will find: Elegant reception rooms Decorative plasterwork ceilings Large windows overlooking parkland Formal gardens The castle sits in the center of Kilkenny City, surrounded by roughly 50 acres of parkland that locals still use for picnics, sports, and relaxing on sunny days. Kilkenny Castle is an OPW managed site. Tickets are available on site, and advance booking is rarely necessary. Learn about the OPW Heritage Card – the best deal in Irish history Cahir Castle along the River Suir Cahir Castle (County Tipperary) – The Norman Stronghold Cahir Castle is one of the largest and best-preserved Norman castles in Ireland. Set on the River Suir, the fortress features massive stone walls, towers, and defensive structures typical of Norman military design. Visitors can: Climb the tower Explore defensive passages Stand beneath the working portcullis Look for cannonballs embedded in the walls Guided tours are included with admission and provide fascinating insight into how these massive defensive castles operated. Despite its impressive size, Cahir Castle often sees surprisingly small crowds, making it a rewarding stop between other popular attractions like the Rock of Cashel and Blarney Castle. Leap Castle Photo credit: Mike Searle, CC BY-SA 2.0 Leap Castle (County Offaly) – Ireland's Haunted Castle Leap Castle is often called the most haunted castle in Ireland. Built in the late 15th century, the castle is tied to dark legends and family power struggles. The castle chapel is known as the “Bloody Chapel,” named after a violent incident during a rivalry between brothers. During restoration work in the early 20th century, a hidden dungeon filled with human remains was reportedly discovered. Leap Castle is privately owned and lived in by musician Sean Ryan, who has carried out much of the restoration work. Visits are possible, but only by appointment, so travelers must contact the owner ahead of time to arrange a tour. Dunluce Castle on the Causeway Coast Dunluce Castle (County Antrim) – The Dramatic Cliffside Castle Few castles in Ireland match the dramatic setting of Dunluce Castle along the Causeway Coast. The ruins sit right on the edge of towering Atlantic cliffs, creating one of the most photographed castle locations in Ireland. Visitors can explore: Ruins of the castle keep Clifftop viewpoints Visitor center exhibits about the castle's history The castle itself is impressive, but the surrounding views may be even more memorable. Two particularly stunning viewpoints include: The bend in the road east of the castle, where it suddenly appears in front of you Magheracross viewpoint west of the castle, offering a sweeping coastal perspective Bring a jacket — the winds here are often strong even on calm days. Ireland's Best Castle Hotels Ashford Castle viewed from the gardens Ashford Castle (County Mayo) – The Luxury Castle Stay For travelers dreaming of staying in a castle, Ashford Castle delivers a truly luxurious experience. Once owned by the Guinness family, the estate now consistently ranks among the best hotels in Ireland. Activities on the estate include: Falconry Golf Horseback riding Boat tours on Lough Corrib Gardens and woodland walks Afternoon tea is particularly popular and should be reserved ahead of time. Ashford Castle works best as a destination stay rather than a touring base — there is so much to experience on the estate that most guests prefer to stay at least two nights. Access to the estate is restricted to guests or visitors with reservations. Lough Eske Castle from the guest car park Lough Eske Castle (County Donegal) – A Relaxing Castle Retreat Lough Eske Castle offers a luxurious but peaceful castle experience surrounded by the landscapes of County Donegal. The focus here is relaxation rather than packed schedules. Highlights include: Spacious rooms Beautiful lake and woodland setting A highly regarded spa Fine dining and afternoon tea Unlike some castle hotels, Lough Eske also works well as a touring base. Nearby excursions include: Slieve League Cliffs Glencolmcille Scenic drives along Donegal's coast Families will appreciate that the hotel offers interconnecting rooms — something not commonly found in castle accommodations. Approaching Kinnity Castle Kinnitty Castle (County Offaly) – The Most Authentic Castle Stay For travelers who want a castle experience that feels historic and intimate, Kinnitty Castle is a wonderful option. Unlike many castle hotels that have been extensively modernized, Kinnitty retains much of its traditional character. The baronial rooms at the top of the castle feature exposed stone and wood, creating the feeling of being a guest in a historic residence. Activities nearby include: Horseback riding Archery Hill walking in the Slieve Bloom Mountains Guests can also visit nearby attractions like Birr Castle and Gardens. Inside the castle, the Dungeon Bar is a memorable spot for a meal, while the Library Bar is perfect for relaxing by the fire with a drink. One practical tip: there is no elevator, so pack lightly if you're staying on the upper floors. No matter how you choose to explore Ireland, castles have a way of connecting you to the country's history, its stories, and sometimes even its legends. And with so many scattered across the island, chances are you'll find at least one – or several – that fit perfectly into your trip. The post 10 Castles in Ireland to Inspire Your Trip appeared first on Ireland Family Vacations.

Ever tried a so-called fun end-of-class activity and ended up feeling more exhausted than you started? In this episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast, host Khristen Massic takes aim at why filler activities backfire in a secondary classroom, and she does not hold back. If you've ever walked out of your classroom after ten minutes of “fun” with more side chatter, off-task students, and your energy zapped, you're not alone.Our primary keyword phrase today is “why filler activities backfire in a secondary classroom”—and Khristen's here to name what so many don't say out loud. The problem isn't that you're missing some critical engagement gene; it's that typical filler games like Trash Ball or toss-the-ball-for-points are only engaging for the one kid holding the spotlight. Everyone else? Zoned out, waiting, or finding their own fun. In a classroom of teens, when most are just watching, dead air creeps in—and that's when behavior issues show up uninvited.Here's the trap: teachers want to send students out on a high note, keep things light with games or review challenges. But activities where just a couple of students are active while everyone else is on the sidelines create what Khristen calls “audience time.” That audience time is drift time. The longer students sit as spectators, the more likely you'll have random noise, check-outs, or even outright chaos. It's not about being a bad teacher—teens are human, and humans fill dead space, usually not how we want.What's the better way? Khristen makes it clear: if it's not all play, don't use it for your last ten minutes. All play routines mean everyone participates, all at the same time, with structure and clear boundaries. That's how you eliminate problematic idle pockets and maintain a smooth classroom routine. This isn't about making activities flashier; it's about making them more distributed and structured, so nobody's left waiting for “their turn” while the energy drops and classroom management ramps up.Take Trash Ball, for example—a go-to review game for some. Host Khristen Massic shares how it leaves most of the secondary classroom disconnected while one student aims for a prize, and the rest just hope they get picked next. You end up spending more time redirecting behavior than actually teaching or reviewing. And let's be real—no amount of positive intentions can outmaneuver an activity design that creates built-in dead spots.Khristen gives listeners a simple test: before you try any end-of-class activity, ask, “How many students are actively participating at the same time?” If the answer isn't “everyone,” scrap it for a more structured routine. She's all about activities where all students make a choice—writing, moving, voting, reflecting, partner-sharing—anything that involves the entire room at once, with a timer and a clear start and stop. That's how you move from hoping for engagement to actually getting it.Middle and high school teachers juggling multiple preps, this episode is tailor-made for your reality. If you're tired of walking into your next period already drained, start matching the right kind of activity to those last hectic minutes. Filler activities backfire in a secondary classroom because they create drift and drain your energy—not because you're not engaging enough. Khristen's take? It's time to rebel against “but it's a game—they should love it” thinking and get honest about what really steers classroom routines.For teachers seeking work-life balance and less stress, Khristen's “all play” approach means you're not burning energy on crowd control. You're crafting predictable, repeatable routines that let you end class steady, not spent. Her advice? Before you hit play on any filler, check if it involves the whole class. If not, save it for another time, and choose something structured that keeps everyone engaged.The Secondary Teacher Podcast is all about real teacher tips—no fluff, just hard-earned wisdom. Host Khristen Massic closes with encouragement: it's not your fault when “fun” activities fizzle. You're not failing; you're learning to pick routines that work for the real kids in front of you.Stand tall, skip the dead air, and end your class strong.

Struggling with social skills practice that actually feels natural? This week on the podcast, we're diving deep into practical, respectful ways to support our neurodivergent kiddos as they navigate friendships and social situations—without the cringe! From conversation entry points (aka scripts that don't turn our kids into social robots!) to playful, low-stakes role-playing at home, Colleen shares hands-on strategies to boost confidence and make socializing just a little easier for everyone involved. If "Just be yourself!" doesn't cut it in your house, you're not alone. Listen to this episode and help your kids build real-world connections, one conversation at a time. Key Takeaways: Scripts as Scaffolding, Not Life Sentences: Social scripts aren't rigid lines for kids to memorize forever. Instead, they serve as supportive "training wheels" to help neurodivergent kids enter, maintain, and exit conversations more naturally—reducing anxiety and offering footholds toward authentic communication. Practice Through Playful, Low-Stakes Moments: Avoid pressuring your child with public corrections or high-stakes rehearsal before social events. Instead, incorporate side-by-side role play, movie-pause coaching, and micro-practicing to gently build and reinforce social skills without making kids feel evaluated. Measure Progress by Initiative, Not Perfection: Success isn't about perfect eye contact or flawless conversation. Celebrate when your child initiates conversations, adapts their scripts into their own words, or asks to socialize again. These signs mean scripts are becoming real-world skills! Parenting and homeschooling neurodivergent kids is tough—but you're already doing amazing work just by showing up, learning, and supporting your child's unique journey.

In this episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, we explore a question many meditators quietly wrestle with: Why does life sometimes feel less interesting as meditation deepens? As spiritual practice grows, interests, motivations, and relationships can begin to shift. Activities that once felt exciting may lose their pull, while inner life becomes richer and more compelling. Is this a healthy sign of spiritual development—or could it be a form of withdrawal from life? This conversation examines how to recognize the difference between genuine spiritual maturation and subtle avoidance. We discuss how meditation naturally reshapes priorities, why it's normal to outgrow certain habits or environments, and how to remain engaged with family, work, and creativity while still honoring a deeper inner calling. The episode also touches on the role of self-reflection, the importance of psychological healing alongside meditation, and how a balanced spiritual path allows both inner realization and meaningful participation in everyday life. If you've ever wondered whether losing interest in the noise of the world means something is wrong—or whether it might signal a deeper transformation—this episode offers clarity, perspective, and practical guidance. -

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and this is episode 148 of EO Radio Show. Here we are, solidly into the 2026 election year, and that means private foundations should refresh their understanding of election‑year issues for organizations that want to remain exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3), and avoid the onerous private‑foundation excise taxes that come into play if a private foundation uses its funds for impermissible legislative lobbying. This week's episode is a refresh of the show's episode 8, originally released in 2022. For more information on related election‑year issues, you may want to go back to episode 146 for the commentary on candidate campaign intervention, or episode 147 if your interest is in what public charities may do in the lobbying arena. Episode 147 refreshed an earlier episode that focused on allowable educational and advocacy activities for public charities, including a discussion of the definition of lobbying and the two different rules that apply to public charities.

This episode is a little different.Instead of diving into a traditional interview, Dr. Rob Williams and I sit down to answer some of the most common questions we've been asked about the Beyond The Noise Men's Retreat we are hosting this October in Italy.Questions like:What actually happens at a retreat?Who is it for?Do you need to be super fit?And why are so many men in midlife searching for deeper connections?We talk openly about why this retreat exists and what inspired us to create it. So many men today carry heavy roles. Provider, partner, father, leader. Somewhere along the way, the space to simply be yourself often disappears.The Beyond The Noise Retreat is designed to give men five days away from the noise of everyday life. Set in a restored 14th century monastery in the forests of Umbria, Italy, the retreat creates a space where men can step out of their titles and reconnect with themselves and each other.Throughout this conversation we walk through the experience of the retreat. The environment, the activities, the conversations and the intention behind it all. From hiking and cold plunges to breathwork, reflection, music, and meaningful conversations around the fire.But more than anything, this episode explores why spaces like this matter.Because when men step into environments where they can drop their roles, something powerful happens. They realise they are not alone in what they're carrying, and the friendships and connections that form often become the most valuable takeaway.If you've been curious about men's retreats or wondering whether something like this might be for you, this episode answers the questions you may already have.Inside this podcast:- Why men in midlife are searching for deeper connection- What actually happens at the Beyond The Noise retreat- Why retreats allow men to drop their roles and reconnect- What the five day experience in Umbria will look like- How brotherhood and shared experiences change menRetreat Details & Website: https://bit.ly/4lpC4ocConnect with Dr. Rob: Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/drrobwilliams Connect with Steve:Instagram → https://bit.ly/3KARQhR Episode Highlights00:00 – Why this episode is a Q&A about the retreat01:00 – The question many men ask in midlife02:00 – Introducing the Beyond The Noise retreat in Italy05:00 – What happens when men step into retreat spaces07:00 – Courage and curiosity when joining a retreat10:00 – Why men need spaces to drop their roles13:00 – The brotherhood and connections that emerge18:00 – Wisdom and conversations that unfold naturally22:00 – Why nature plays a powerful role in retreats27:00 – Activities including hiking, breathwork, and reflection32:00 – The balance of structure and free time36:00 – Fitness expectations and the waterfall hike40:00 – Music, rest, and flexible retreat time45:00 – Who this retreat is really for50:00 – The invitation to step beyond the noiseABOUT THE PODCAST SHOWThe Noise of Life is a podcast that shares real stories, raw truths, and remarkable growth.

In this week's episode of the Do Good to Lead Well podcast, I speak with Vanessa Druskat, a globally recognized expert in team performance and author of "The Emotionally Intelligent Team." Vanessa shares the inspiration behind her research, highlighting the gap between anecdotal advice and evidence-based practices for building successful teams. She discusses the importance of cultivating esprit de corps—meaning a sense of belonging, value, and psychological safety—within teams, and emphasizes that this must come from both leaders and team members.Our conversation explores practical norms and routines that emotionally intelligent teams use, dispelling myths around individual emotional intelligence versus collective TeamEI. Vanessa provides actionable examples, such as brief check-ins, team charters, and structured feedback mechanisms, underscoring the need for leaders to be intentional, especially in remote or hybrid environments. Questions from the live audience explored topics such as the role of team charters, overcoming ineffective norms, and the courage required to embrace feedback and conflict constructively. The episode is packed with research-backed insights and practical strategies to help leaders create high-performing, emotionally intelligent teams.What You'll Learn- Great teams do things differently… and intentionally.- The importance of assessing your team's norms (anonymous surveys work wonders!).- Develop a charter and revisit it regularly.- Make feedback part of your culture rather than a once-a-year event- How to lead remote/hybrid teams effectively.- Why you want to finish meetings with a Plus/Delta.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) – Welcome to the Podcast(10:25) - Defining Team Emotional Intelligence vs Individual EQ(19:56) - Common Team Norms: Good, Bad, and Misunderstood(24:32) - Creating and Using Team Charters(27:12) - Activities to Build Understanding and Belonging(32:11) - Best Practices for Team Assessment(36:54) - Feedback and Accountability in Emotionally Intelligent Teams(41:20) - Constructive Conflict and Avoiding Sidebar Conversations(49:33) - Emotional Intelligence in Remote and Hybrid Teams(54:33) - Final ReflectionsKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Team Emotional Intelligence, Team Norms, Self-awareness, Psychological Safety, Feedback Culture, Team Rituals, Team-Building, High-Performing Teams, Team Assessment, Team Charter, Remote Teams, Hybrid Teams, Collaboration, Accountability, Sense of Belonging, Respect, Onboarding, Team Effectiveness, CEO Success

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and this is episode 147 of EO Radio Show. As most listeners are undoubtedly aware, 2026 is an election year. Charities and private foundations should refresh their understanding of election‑year issues to remain exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). This week's episode is a refresh of the show's episode 7, originally released in 2022. Today's focus is on allowable educational and advocacy activities for public charities, including a discussion of the definition of lobbying and the two rules that apply to them. The first rule we'll discuss is the subjective test under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). And the second alternative—the elective test for charities that make the 501(h) election—allows for an objective limitation on lobbying expenditures. For more information on related election issues, listeners may want to go back to last week's episode—that's episode 146—which covered the limitations in 501(c)(3) relating to candidate campaign intervention. And stay tuned for episode 148, addressing permissible private foundation policy advocacy activities, which differ from what is allowed for 501(c)(3) organizations classified as public charities. Finally, be sure to check out the show notes for resources from the IRS on these topics.

In today's episode, Gina describes how movement can help us in our anxiety recovery, and also how intense movement can work against it. A number of slower, gentler forms of movement and exercised are recommended for realizing the benefits of exercise without risking excessive cortisol release and increasing anxiety. Strenuous exercise does have a place, but it is recommended to be selective with using it, especially during anxiety recovery.Stillpoint Fridays is my once-a-week Friday note — a slower, more personal reflection that's different from what I share on the podcast.

While we've often leaned on the mantra that moving our bodies is a remedy for stress, today I invite you to reconsider the intensity of those workouts. Many people find themselves feeling wired and edgy after a high-intensity session rather than the calm they anticipated—this is not a personal failing. It's essential to understand that when we push our already stressed nervous systems beyond their capacity, we may inadvertently exacerbate our feelings of anxiety.We live in a culture that idolizes rigorous training and relentless commitment to fitness, often overlooking the unique needs of our bodies and minds. When the body is subjected to intense workouts while already managing elevated levels of cortisol, the experience can feel less like a beneficial challenge and more like an added threat. The physiological response triggers a cycle of heightened stress chemistry, leading to difficulties in sleeping, increased irritability, and an overall sense of being overwhelmed.I emphasize the importance of recognizing movement not solely as an endeavor to achieve goals but as a signal to our nervous systems. Intense exercise may communicate urgency and threat, whereas gentler, rhythmic movements convey safety and calm. Activities like slow walking, gentle yoga, or even tasks like gardening, provide a stabilizing rhythm that can nurture the mind and body. This perspective shifts the narrative from one of intensity to one of attunement—listening to our bodies and responding to their needs.#AnxietyRelief #NervousSystemRegulation #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #CortisolControl #VagusNerveHealing #MindfulMovement #TiredButWired #GentleMovement #SomaticHealing #MentalHealthAwareness #WalkingForHealth #LowImpactFitness #BodyAttunement #StressManagement #VagalTone #BilateralStimulation #RestorativeFitness #HolisticHealing #ListenToYourBody #MorningAnxiety #BurnoutRecovery #MindBodyConnection #SelfCareDaily #MentalWellness #CalmMind #YogaForAnxiety #Overstimulation #SlowLiving #PeaceAndCalm #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From Cajun Country to the French Riviera: Louisiana Meets France takes you on a lively, honest, and sometimes surprising journey through France with Annie Sargent and her guests, Renee Poche and Dixie Poche, a mother-daughter duo from Cajun Country in Louisiana. Listen to this episode ad-free This episode explores what happens when Cajun French culture meets modern France. Renee and Dixie share stories from their first trip together to Nice, Paris, Reims, and small towns along the way. They talk about expectations versus reality. They compare food, daily rhythms, and cultural habits. They reflect on what feels familiar and what feels very different. You'll hear about staying in a former convent in Nice. Walking the Old Town. Riding elevators up cliffs. Watching the noon cannon fire. There's champagne tasting in the Champagne region, with honest opinions about Reims versus Épernay. There's Versailles, with practical advice on timing and energy levels. There's Paris, explored slowly, on foot, with cafés, cemeteries, shopping, and a night at the Moulin Rouge. Food plays a big role in this conversation. Annie, Renee, and Dixie compare Cajun boudin and French andouille. They talk about sauces, spices, portions, and meal times. They also discuss how French fashion, walking culture, and city layouts influence how visitors experience France. This episode is about more than an itinerary. It's about traveling together. It's about mother-daughter dynamics on the road. It's about noticing small details. It's about how shared French roots can feel both close and distant at the same time. If you're curious about Cajun French culture Louisiana vs France, planning a first trip, or thinking about traveling with family, this episode will resonate.
