Low ticket is a strategy for creating offers that your audience can't resist, making it easy for them to say "yes!" ●      Transform Browsers into Buyers: By offering low ticket items, you can convert freebie seekers into paying customers. This shift not only establishes a business relationship but also increases the likelihood of repeat purchases in the future. ●      Creative low ticket ideas: Steal some of Lisa & Brea's favorite low ticket offerings that you can implement in your coaching practice. ●      Leverage Existing Content: Coaches can create low ticket offers from existing materials, such as recorded webinars, activity guides, or coaching templates. This allows you to monetize content you've already developed, making it easier to generate income. ●      Build Trust and Value: Low ticket offers can help establish trust with your audience. When clients see the value in your lower-priced products, they are more likely to invest in higher-ticket items down the line, creating a sustainable business model.   Take Action to Build a Low Ticket Offer Strategy ●      Define Your Low Ticket Offer: Determine what your low ticket offer will be. Remember to make it a “no-brainer” for potential customers. ●      Repackage an Existing Asset: Look through your existing materials (like recorded webinars, handouts, or coaching questions) and package them into a low ticket offer. Aim to create something that provides value and can be easily sold, such as a workbook or an activity guide. ●      Ask For the Sale: After you create a clear offer, it's time to communicate it to your audience. Remember, people who have bought from you before are more likely to buy again. ●      Automate Your Sales: Consider exploring ways to automate the sales of your low ticket offers, such as through email marketing or online sales platforms, to generate income while you focus on other aspects of your business.

Interview with Gregory Martyr, Executive Chairman of Capital Metals PLCOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/capital-metals-lsecmet-unlocking-value-in-high-grade-sri-lankan-mineral-sands-6384Recording date: 16th June 2025Capital Metals (LSE:CMET) has secured a transformative partnership for its Taprobane mineral sands project in Sri Lanka, marking a significant milestone in the company's path to production. The AIM-listed developer announced a 14% investment from Ambeon Capital, a Sri Lankan investment group that brings crucial local expertise and government connections to the high-grade deposit on the country's east coast.The Taprobane project distinguishes itself through exceptional resource quality, featuring 17% grade mineral sands among the world's highest concentrations. Recent aircore drilling has revealed even greater potential, with visual inspections indicating grades exceeding 60% in some areas at depths previously inaccessible through conventional hand auger methods. Executive Chairman Gregory Martyr emphasized the project's economics, noting mining costs of $20 per ton against revenue of $40 per ton, delivering a compelling 100% markup.The strategic value of the Ambeon partnership extends beyond capital injection. Founded by Australian-educated principals combining local market knowledge with international business experience, Ambeon provides direct access to Sri Lankan regulatory channels through its chairman's position on the Board of Investment. This connection proves critical as Capital Metals navigates government requirements for initial raw concentrate exports followed by mandatory value-added processing within two years.Capital Metals plans to commence operations with a $20.9 million concentrate facility utilizing 48 gravity spirals, targeting 125,000 tons of annual production. The company has structured a comprehensive $20 million funding strategy through a Sri Lankan exchange listing, with Ambeon contributing $10 million in equity and arranging $10 million in corporate debt through its banking relationships.The project benefits from established, low-risk processing technology requiring no blasting or chemicals, while the shallow 1.6-meter average depth minimizes operational complexity. With significant drilling inventory yet to be incorporated into resource calculations, the current 10-year mine life could potentially double, supporting the $155 million base case net present value and positioning Capital Metals advantageously in the mineral sands sector.View Capital Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/capital-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

KEY TAKEAWAYS A lot of people on the comedy circuit are quite vulnerable. Being a comic is challenging. Often, the pay is poor, so it is hard for comedians to make a steady living and be financially secure in older age. John grew up in a very ethnically mixed part of Hackney, which gave him a lifelong love of different cultures. As a kid, John noticed that a lot of the men in his Irish family died a lot younger than other men, which fuelled his interest in men´s mental health. Most men´s sexual health issues are connected to poor mental health. Society still encourages men to take risks and push themselves beyond healthy limits. Making it hard to live a balanced life. Creating a safe physical space helps men to open up and talk more. Banter can do more damage than you realise. Humour breaks down barriers and helps people to open up and talk. Talking protects your mental health. Aim for contentment in life. BEST MOMENTS “I always wanted to find a way to bridge the gap between comedy, communications and men's health.” “Rowdy. But, you know, rowdy, you can out shout them, out shock them, or just go quiet.” “I managed to talk my way out of it by putting on a silly accent and pretending I was an Orient fan.” “Health is the real leveller, whether you are black, white, Asian, Chinese.” “Life is about learning to let go of unnecessary items.” “We are trying to take haha to aha.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.instagram.com/comedyjohnryan https://happytohealthyou.com HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students.

We hear a lot about toxic masculinity — in viral clips, cultural commentary, and even our personal lives. But it got me wondering: Can femininity become toxic too? If masculinity becomes harmful when it's distorted or out of balance, could the same be true for traits we associate with femininity? In this episode, I'm joined by Abby (whose recent take on Proverbs 31 made me revisit a chapter that reminded me of my AIM screen name I had at 11 years old @proverbs31rox) and my longtime friend Mariah, a wise voice and always a good hang. Together, we explore the concept of “toxic femininity”: What does it mean? Why is it hard to name? And where have we seen it play out — in our lives, our culture, and our relationships? From complicity with the male gaze to the passive-aggressive dynamics we sometimes chalk up to “girl drama,” we talk candidly about the behaviors that might reflect femininity gone off course. Plus, we share stories (yes, even about gossip), question cultural norms, and ask: What does healthy, grounded femininity actually look like? Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Authentically ADHD, Carmen peels back the curtain on Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome (CDS)—sometimes called Sluggish Cognitive Tempo—to reveal why so many of us with ADHD feel stuck in a fog of daydreams, slow processing, and low energy. After a quick, relatable anecdote about spacing out in a meeting (and the panic that follows), we dive into what CDS actually is: a cluster of symptoms that overlaps with ADHD but isn't the same thing. You'll learn how CDS shows up differently than classic inattentive ADHD—think mental “brakes,” mind-wandering marathons, and that overwhelming sense that your brain is running underwater.Next, we explore how CDS can silently sabotage work, relationships, and self-esteem. Carmen shares listener stories—like the person who's constantly five steps behind in conversations or the professional whose “slow load time” makes presentations feel like climbing Everest. We unpack the neuroscience in digestible terms: what brain networks are under-activated, how dopamine dysregulation plays a role, and why meds that help “hyperactive” ADHD often fall short for CDS symptoms.Finally, we shift to practical strategies. You'll walk away with at least three tangible tools to test—everything from micro-bursts of movement to reframing your to-do list in ultra-small steps and scheduling “CDS-friendly breaks” before burnout sets in. By the end, you'll understand that those moments of mental fog aren't personal failings but part of a hidden ADHD subprofile—and you'll have a roadmap for bringing more focus, energy, and self-compassion into your lifeShow Notes: IntroductionHello and welcome! Today, we're diving into a fascinating and often underrecognized topic: Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome, or CDS. If that name doesn't ring a bell, maybe its older label will — Sluggish Cognitive Tempo. (Yeah, I know, it sounds like an insult you'd hurl at a slow computer.) In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on what CDS really is, why it's not just “laziness” or ordinary daydreaming, and why experts say it deserves far more attention than it gets.Hook: Ever feel like your brain is running on dial-up internet in a high-speed world? You're trying to focus, but it's like there's a fog inside your head, and everything is moving in slow motion. Your thoughts wander off like they've got a mind of their own, and snapping back to reality is a bit like wading through molasses. If you're nodding along (or if someone you know comes to mind), you might be familiar with what we're talking about. And if you have ADHD or work with folks who do, you might have seen hints of this “slow-mo” attention state that often hides in plain sight.In this 25-30 minute episode, we'll cover: what exactly Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome is and its key symptoms (in plain, relatable language), how it overlaps with but isn't the same as ADHD, why it often gets misdiagnosed as something else (like depression or anxiety), and some practical, real-world tips for managing it. All of that with a professional tone and a little bit of sass — because learning should be engaging, right? So grab a coffee (you might need it for this topic!), and let's get started.What Is Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome (CDS)?All right, first things first: what on Earth is Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome? In a nutshell, CDS is a term that describes a unique set of attention symptoms — think of it as a “cousin” to ADHD, but with its own personality. It used to be known as “Sluggish Cognitive Tempo,” which frankly sounds like your brain is a slow turtle. No surprise, experts decided to rebrand it to something less snarky and more accurateen.wikipedia.orgmedvidi.com. Now we call it Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome, highlighting how the mind can seem to disengage from the task at hand.So what does CDS look like? Picture a person (child or adult) who is constantly drifting off into their own world. We're talking excessive daydreaming, blank staring, zoning out as if the lights are on but nobody's homeadditudemag.com. Their mind wanders like it's on an aimless road trip. They might appear mentally foggy, sluggish in their movements or thinking, and often slow to respond to what's happening around themedgefoundation.org. Folks with CDS often seem underactive – the opposite of hyperactive – and may be described as lethargic or low energy. You might notice them blinking awake as if they were literally about to nod off, even during activities that aren't boring for everyone else. In short, their alertness is inconsistent: one moment they're tuned in, but the next they've drifted away on a cloud of thoughtsedgefoundation.org.Another hallmark is being easily confused or mentally “fogged.” It's not that they can't understand things, but their processing speed is slow. Imagine trying to stream a video with a weak Wi-Fi signal – the content eventually comes through, but it lags. Similarly, a person with CDS might take longer to process information or retrieve memories, leading them to lose their train of thought oftenen.wikipedia.org. They might say, “Wait, what was I doing?” more times a day than they'd like.And here's a term researchers use that really nails it: being “internally distracted.” With classic ADHD, people are often pulled by external distractions (every noise, sight, or squirrel outside the window steals their attention). But with CDS, the distraction is coming from inside their own mind – an internal daydream or just a blank fog that is surprisingly hard to shakechadd.org. It's like their mind's “attention switch” is set to the off position when it should be on. They may appear withdrawn or apathetic, not because they don't care, but because their brain isn't fully engaging with what's in front of iten.wikipedia.org. This has led others to mislabel them as “lazy” or “not trying hard enough,” which is pretty unfair. In reality, CDS is a genuine attentional problem – one that's different from typical ADHD and definitely not a character flawpubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.Let me give you a relatable example: Think about those mornings when you just can't wake up, and you stumble around in a coffee-deprived haze. You pour orange juice into your coffee mug and put your car keys in the fridge – your brain just isn't firing on all cylinders. That's a bit what CDS feels like all day long for some people. They're awake, but there's a persistent grogginess or dreaminess that makes every mental task feel like lifting weights in Jell-O.Now, you might be wondering how common this is. Research suggests that CDS symptoms are not rare at all. In fact, it's estimated that a significant chunk of people with ADHD – up to 40% of kids, by some estimates – also experience these CDS-type symptomsadditudemag.com. And it's not just in kids. Adults can have CDS as well (even if they never knew it had a name). It's been observed in roughly one-third of adults diagnosed with inattentive ADHD, for exampleedgefoundation.org. There are even cases of people who only have CDS without the more classic ADHD traits – they might have gone through life just labeled as the “spacey” or quiet ones.One important note: CDS is not officially listed as a diagnosis in the DSM-5, the big manual of mental disordersadditudemag.com. That means your doctor won't find “Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome” as a formal label to bill your insurance. But don't let that fool you into thinking it's not real. The concept has been studied by psychologists for decades, and there's a consensus in recent research that these symptoms cluster together in a meaningful wayadditudemag.compubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. In other words, something is going on here beyond just normal variation in attention. So even if it's not an official diagnosis yet, many clinicians recognize CDS (or SCT) as a very useful description for patients who have this particular profile.To summarize this segment: CDS, formerly known as sluggish cognitive tempo, refers to a pattern of chronic daydreaming, mental fog, slow processing, and low initiative that can seriously affect daily life. It's like the brain's engine is always idling in neutral – not because the person is willfully tuning out, but because their brain's ability to engage is, for lack of a better word, sluggish. Now that we know what it is, let's talk about how this compares to a condition you've definitely heard of: ADHD.How Does CDS Overlap with and Differ from ADHD?If you listened to that description of CDS and thought, “Hmm, some of that sounds like ADHD,” you're absolutely right. CDS has a lot of overlap with ADHD, especially the inattentive type. Both involve problems with attention, forgetfulness, and maybe looking off into space when you're supposed to be working. In fact, for years CDS (back when it was called SCT) was thought of as possibly just a subtype of ADHD. Many people with ADHD do have some CDS symptoms and vice versaedgefoundation.org. But here's the kicker: modern research indicates that CDS and ADHD aren't identical – they're more like siblings than twinsen.wikipedia.org. They share some DNA, but each has its own quirks.Let's start with the obvious difference: hyperactivity (or rather, the lack of it). ADHD famously often comes with hyperactivity and impulsivity (at least in the combined or hyperactive-impulsive presentations). Those are the folks who are fidgeting, tapping, jumping out of their seats, acting on impulse – their internal motor runs fast. In contrast, people with pure CDS are the polar opposite of hyperactive. Remember, another term for this was “sluggish” cognitive tempo. Instead of bouncing off the walls, someone with CDS might be melting into the wall, so to speak – quiet, slow-moving, and passiveen.wikipedia.org. They're not blurting out answers in class; they're the ones who may not answer even when you call on them, because their mind was elsewhere. One researcher humorously noted it's like comparing a race car (ADHD) to a slow cruiser (CDS) – one's got too much go, the other not enough.Attention differences: Both ADHD and CDS involve attention problems, but the type of attention problem differs. Here's a way to think about it: people with ADHD can engage their attention quickly but struggle to sustain it, especially if something isn't interesting – their attention is like a spotlight that flickers on exciting things but then fizzles outen.wikipedia.org. On the other hand, people with CDS have trouble even getting that spotlight to turn on and lock onto the target in the first placeen.wikipedia.org. It's as if the brain's ignition switch is delayed. Once they do focus, they might actually be able to stick with it a bit (especially if it's something captivating), but the hard part is that initial spark of attention. An ADHD student might start their homework and then get distracted by 10 different thoughts and leave it unfinished, whereas a CDS student might sit down to do the homework and spend 30 minutes in a haze, kind of staring at the page not even knowing where to begin. Both end up with not much done, but the mental experience is different.Another difference is processing speed and accuracy. ADHD folks can often think quickly (sometimes too quickly, leading to impulsive mistakes). But someone with CDS processes information more slowly and may be prone to more mistakes because their attention to detail is decoupled or laggingen.wikipedia.orgen.wikipedia.org. Think of it this way: if an ADHD brain is like a flashy smartphone that sometimes loses signal, a CDS brain might be like an older phone that has a constant delay – slower to open apps and occasionally freezes on a screen. Both might drop your call (metaphorically speaking) but for different technical reasons.Memory and retrieval can also feel different. ADHD's inattention often looks like forgetfulness due to distraction (you didn't remember the meeting because you were busy thinking about five other things). In CDS, forgetfulness might come from that fog – the information just never fully registered or gets stuck behind a mental cloud. People with CDS often say they feel like they have a “brain fog” or that they're in a constant daydream, which isn't typically how someone with classic ADHD would describe their attention (they might say theirs is like a ping-pong ball bouncing around).Now let's talk mood and motivation overlaps. ADHD is frequently linked with externalizing behaviors – meaning, some with ADHD might have impulsive anger outbursts, act without thinking, maybe develop conduct issues, or lean toward thrill-seeking. CDS, conversely, is more often linked with internalizing tendencies: anxiety, shyness, even depressive feelingsen.wikipedia.orgen.wikipedia.org. Why? Possibly because being in a fog and struggling quietly can dent your self-esteem or make social life harder, leading to withdrawal. A kid with ADHD might be the class clown or the one getting in trouble; a kid with CDS is more likely to be the wallflower in class who barely says a word. Studies consistently find that CDS-prone individuals are often socially withdrawn and shy, sometimes getting overlooked or ignored by peersen.wikipedia.org. People might think they're aloof or uninterested, but in reality the person is just slow to respond and not catching the fast-paced flow of conversationen.wikipedia.org. Meanwhile, ADHD kids are hard to ignore – they demand attention, sometimes in not-so-great ways, and can get actively rejected due to disruptive behavioren.wikipedia.org. So, socially, one tends to be invisible (CDS) and the other too visible (ADHD).There's also an interesting personality distinction noted in research: ADHD is often associated with being reward-seeking and novelty-loving, whereas CDS might come with a higher sensitivity to punishment or a tendency to avoid risksen.wikipedia.org. It's like ADHD is always pressing the gas pedal looking for something fun, and CDS is hovering over the brake, worried about making a wrong move. This could be one reason we see less rule-breaking behavior in CDS – those individuals aren't the ones typically running toward trouble; if anything, they're stuck trying to remember what the next step was.Neuroscience angle (in lay terms): We won't get too technical here, but it's worth noting that scientists suspect the brain mechanisms differ between these two conditions. ADHD is often tied to issues with executive functions and inhibitory control (trouble stopping impulses, difficulty with the brain's “braking system”). CDS seems to be more about a deficit in starting and sustaining cognitive engagement – maybe a lower general arousal or alertness level in the brain. One theory is that different attention networks are involved: ADHD involves circuits that sustain attention and inhibit distractions, whereas CDS might involve circuits that initiate and regulate alertness. From a neurotransmitter perspective, ADHD famously involves dopamine irregularities; with CDS, some researchers wonder if there's a component of the brain's arousal system (possibly a norepinephrine angle, since alertness is at issue) – but the jury's still out. Alright, science hat off now! The key takeaway is that the inattentiveness in CDS qualitatively feels different from the garden-variety ADHD distractibilityen.wikipedia.org.Before we leave this section, it's important to mention: a person can have both ADHD and CDS symptoms together (this is actually pretty common, as we noted earlier). If ADHD is the cake, think of CDS as a flavor of icing that can coat it for some people. Those are the folks who might be especially struggling – for example, they have the hyperactivity or impulsivity of ADHD and the foggy drifting of CDS. On the flip side, there are some who just have one or the other. The overlap has made it a bit tricky in the past for doctors to decide, “Is this a new condition or just part of ADHD?” But recent consensus leans toward CDS being its own construct, not just “ADHD-lite.” In fact, a large meta-analysis of around 19,000 people found that ADHD symptoms and CDS symptoms, while often co-occurring, do factor out as distinct inattention patternsmedvidi.com. So, think of them like two circles in a Venn diagram: they overlap in the middle (many people have both), but each also has an area that doesn't overlap – unique features that the other doesn't share.In summary, ADHD and Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome are like two different flavors of attention deficit. ADHD is the high-speed, impulsive, “lots of oomph but hard to control” flavor, and CDS is the slow, dreamy, “low oomph, hard to get going” flavor. Both can make school, work, and life challenging, but in distinct ways. Understanding these differences isn't just academic – it matters because it affects how someone feels inside, and it can guide different approaches to help them. And speaking of that, why is it that so many people with CDS have been flying under the radar or getting mislabeled? That brings us to our next segment.Why Is CDS Often Misdiagnosed (or Missed Entirely)?Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome has been called an “underrecognized” condition – and for good reason. It's like the introvert at the party of mental health conditions: quiet, not drawing attention to itself, and often misunderstood. Let's unpack why so many people with CDS get misdiagnosed or overlooked, often as having something else like ADHD, depression, or anxiety.One big reason is history and awareness. Until recently, most clinicians and educators didn't have CDS on their radar at all. If a child was struggling to pay attention, the go-to thought would be “this might be ADHD” (or if the child was very quiet and slow, maybe “this kid is depressed or has an anxiety issue”). Sluggish Cognitive Tempo, as a term, has been around for decades in research, but it never made it into the official diagnostic manualsstatnews.com. So unlike ADHD, which every teacher, parent, or doctor has heard of, SCT/CDS has kind of been the forgotten step-sibling of ADHD. A lot of professionals simply weren't taught about it. This means a kid showing these symptoms might get an ADHD-inattentive type diagnosis by default, or if they don't tick enough ADHD boxes, they might just be shrugged off as a “daydreamer” or mischaracterized as having low motivation.Symptom overlap is another culprit. As we discussed, there's a ton of overlap between inattentive ADHD and CDS. That overlapping 30-50% of cases can be confusingen.wikipedia.org. Many clinicians historically would have just said “well, it's basically ADHD” and not bother with a separate label. The downside? If it is CDS, the subtleties (like the constant drowsiness or internal thought-wandering) might not be addressed by standard ADHD strategies or medications. But if no one's distinguishing it, the person might just be lumped under ADHD and left wondering why some typical ADHD advice doesn't quite fit them.Now, consider how CDS presents behaviorally: these individuals usually aren't causing trouble. They're not hyper or defiant; if anything, they're too well-behaved but mentally absent. Teachers love that they're not disruptive, so they might not refer them for evaluation as quickly as the kid who won't stay in his seat. A student with CDS might sit quietly in the back, half-listening, half in La-La Land. They could be struggling massively internally, but because they're not jumping on desks or failing every test, it slides under the radar. They often get comments like “needs to pay more attention” or “so bright, but doesn't apply themselves” on report cards – sound familiar to anyone? Those kinds of comments are classic for undiagnosed attention issues that don't fit the loud ADHD stereotype.Another reason for misdiagnosis is the similarity to depression or anxiety symptoms. Think about it: if someone is consistently sluggish, low-energy, apathetic, and staring off, a clinician might immediately consider depression. In fact, lethargy and concentration problems are key symptoms of depression as well. Anxiety, especially in kids, can sometimes look like zoning out or being “in their head” worrying. So, it's easy to see how a person with CDS might get diagnosed with an anxiety disorder or depression when the core issue is actually this attention disengagement problem (though to complicate matters, the person could also be anxious or depressed – those can co-occur). There's evidence of a strong link between CDS symptoms and internalizing disorders like anxiety/depressioncogepderg.com, which means clinicians really have to tease apart: is the daydreaming because of depression? Or is the depression developing because the person is always struggling and feeling out of sync? It can be a chicken-and-egg situation.Misinterpretation by others adds to the mess. Earlier I mentioned people with CDS might be seen as aloof or unmotivated. Let's double down on that: friends, family, and even doctors can wrongly attribute the behavior to character traits. A child who doesn't respond quickly or seems “out of it” might get labeled as lazy, shy, or even oppositional (when they don't follow instructions, not out of defiance but because their mind wandered off). One heartbreaking example comes from a real story: a teenage girl was so quiet and zoned out in class that teachers literally marked her as absent when she was right there in her seatstatnews.com. Can you imagine? She was physically present but so mentally checked-out due to CDS that she might as well have been invisible. For years she and her parents thought her issues were just from anxiety and depression. It wasn't until she stumbled on the term “sluggish cognitive tempo” in an old psych report that things clickedstatnews.comstatnews.com. Suddenly, the excessive daydreaming, the brain fog – it all made sense as a distinct thing. But it took that long for anyone to connect the dots, because the default assumptions were other diagnoses.There's also a bit of controversy in the professional community that has affected recognition. Some experts have criticized the push to make CDS an official diagnosis, arguing that it might pathologize normal traits or that it's just a fragment of ADHD or other disordersedgefoundation.orgstatnews.com. They worry about overdiagnosis – like, are we going to start labeling every dreamy kid with a disorder? Are pharma companies just looking for the next condition to medicate? These are valid concerns, and it's good that scientists are cautious. However, the flip side is that by not recognizing CDS, people who truly suffer from it might not get the specific help they need. It's a fine line. The consensus that has emerged is that while we're debating the labels, the symptoms are very real and can be seriously impairingedgefoundation.org. So misdiagnosis happens both ways: some get diagnosed with something else incorrectly, and some don't get diagnosed with anything at all – they're just “undiagnosed and unhappy.”Finally, the nature of CDS itself can fool clinicians. Since these folks often have some degree of attention capacity (for example, they might do okay in one-on-one situations or when very interested in a topic), their issue might not scream “attention disorder” in a short doctor's visit. They might not report the hyperactive symptoms (because they have none), so if the practitioner isn't well-versed in SCT, they might not recognize that a pattern of lifelong “dreaminess” is a sign of an attention-related condition. In adults, this is even trickier: an adult who complains of brain fog might get checked for thyroid problems, anemia, sleep apnea, etc., and if all those are negative, the fatigue and fog might be attributed to stress or depression. Rarely does a doctor say, “Hey, could this be that thing called cognitive disengagement syndrome?” – at least not yet, since awareness is still growing.The result of misdiagnosis or missing the diagnosis? People can go years thinking they're just bad at life or “lazy.” They internalize a lot of negative self-talk. A kid might grow up being scolded for daydreaming, a teen might get told “you just need to try harder,” and an adult might wonder why they can't seem to hold onto their thoughts in meetings when everyone else manages fine. It can be frustrating and demoralizing. Some individuals end up on treatments that don't fully help – for instance, they might be given stimulant medication for ADHD and find that, while it might boost focus a bit, it doesn't magically clear the fog like it does for a classic ADHD caseadditudemag.com. Or they might be on antidepressants that help mood but not their spacing-out episodes.The bottom line here is that CDS often flies under the radar. Its sufferers might get diagnosed with something more obvious or nothing at all. The condition is underrecognized in both the medical field and public awareness. That's why one of my goals today (and the reason you're still listening) is to shine a light on it. Because once you do recognize it, you can start doing something about it – which is exactly what we'll talk about next.Up to now, we've painted a pretty challenging picture – brain fog, misdiagnoses, feeling overlooked. But don't worry: this isn't all doom and gloom. In the next segment, we're switching gears to something more empowering: practical tips and strategies. If you or someone you care about is dealing with CDS (or heck, even if you just relate to some of this foggy focus stuff), what can be done? How can you manage these symptoms and make life a bit easier? Let's explore that.Practical Tips for Managing CDSAlright, let's roll up our sleeves and get practical. Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome can make everyday tasks feel like you're swimming upstream, but there are ways to manage it and improve your day-to-day functioning. Whether you're an adult with CDS, a parent or teacher of someone who has it, or just someone listening along for knowledge, these tips will be helpful. We're going to cover a mix of lifestyle habits, strategies, and supports – essentially, how to give that “sluggish” brain a bit of a tune-up or workaround. Think of it as creating an environment where your brain's engine has some extra help turning over. Let's break down some strategies:* Prioritize Sleep and Healthy Habits: This one's not glamorous, but it's huge. Since people with CDS often feel drowsy or low-energy, getting consistent, quality sleep is vital. Poor sleep will only pour molasses on an already sluggish cognitive tempo. Aim for a regular sleep schedule and good sleep hygiene (yes, that means putting down the phone at night and maybe actually going to bed on time, a tough ask, I know!). Also, pay attention to diet and exerciseedgefoundation.org. Physical activity can temporarily boost alertness – even a brisk walk or a few jumping jacks when you're feeling foggy can restart the engine. Eating balanced meals and staying hydrated helps too (blood sugar crashes or dehydration can worsen that spaced-out feeling). Some folks find that a bit of caffeine in moderation helps shake off the cobwebs, but be careful not to overdo it, especially if you also have anxiety. Think of healthy habits as the foundation; they won't eliminate CDS, but they raise your baseline energy and brain health, giving you a fighting chance on those heavy-brain-fog days.* Use External Structures to Stay On Track: If the issue is that your brain disengages internally, one solution is to bring in external engagement. This means using tools and routines to keep you anchored to tasks. For example, timers and alarms can be your best friend. Set a timer for, say, 10 minutes and tell yourself, “I'll work on this task until the timer rings, then I can pause.” Often, just that little auditory cue and the knowledge of a break coming can help you initiate a task. Visual reminders are great too – post-it notes in key places, a big wall calendar, or phone reminders that pop up with messages like “Hey, are you on task?

Interview with Paul Barrett, CEO, Rome ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/rome-resources-lsermr-drc-drilling-restarts-7052Recording date: 8th May 2025Rome Resources PLC has announced a potentially transformative discovery at its flagship Bisie North project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, identifying a new tin zone that extends well beyond the company's previously known mineralized footprint. The AIM-listed tin and base metals explorer intersected a 40-meter-wide tin-bearing zone in drill hole MADD030 on the northeastern flank of the Mont Agoma prospect, with initial XRF readings confirming elevated tin levels.What makes this discovery particularly significant is its location outside both the current mineralized footprint and the established tin-in-soil geochemical anomaly. CEO Paul Barrett explained that the company has identified "a broad shear zone, maybe 500m to a kilometer wide" that provides the geological framework for interpreting the discovery. The finding represents either a new tin system or fault repetition of known mineralization, potentially opening the entire eastern flank for exploration.Rome Resources currently operates three active drilling rigs at Mont Agoma, with four holes totaling 737 meters completed since May 13, 2025. All holes have intersected visual tin, copper, and zinc mineralization confirmed through on-site analysis. The company has engaged MSA Group to complete its maiden resource estimate by the end of June 2025, with updated numbers planned for September following additional drilling results.The discovery comes at an opportune time for DRC-focused mining companies, with improved security conditions and increased strategic investor interest. The recent acquisition of neighboring Alphamin by Abu Dhabi's International Resources Holding validates the region's strategic importance for critical minerals supply chains. Barrett noted that this regional validation, combined with improved security conditions, creates a favorable operating environment.With tin being essential for electronics manufacturing and renewable energy infrastructure, Rome Resources is positioned to benefit from global supply chain diversification efforts. The company expects assay results before July 31, 2025, which will provide quantitative data to assess the commercial significance of this potentially game-changing discovery.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/rome-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Last month, Trinity Classical Academy sent forth its first class of graduating seniors. To mark this milestone, we're republishing an interview that first aired in 2020 on Owen Strachan's now-defunct podcast. At that time, Dr. Strachan was on the faculty at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and he invited Bob Thune to MBTS's Spurgeon Library to talk about the founding of Trinity Classical Academy. The founding and building of institutions is critical for gospel renewal, for societal health, and for the preservation and propagation of Christian faith. The story of TCA's success—from a fledgling startup school to a thriving educational institution—should inspire Christians to be dreamers and builders and doers.(0:00) Introductions: Bob Introduces Owen Introducing Bob(4:33) The Origin Story of Trinity Classical Academy(20:30) The Aim of Education: Formation(27:13) How Can You be a Catalyst in Your Context?

In this episode, Dave breaks down his personal strategy and process for launching new products on Amazon, detailing a four-stage approach that spans from the first few weeks after launch to ongoing strategies for maintaining sales and optimizing listings. We talk about why its important to have a pricing strategy and an ACOS goal, to have only exact match turned on, and to have reviews as soon as possible.    Struggling with tariffs? Unsure about upcoming changes? Let's talk! With Portless, you only pay tariffs after your customers pay you – so your cash always moves faster than your costs. Schedule a risk assessment and leverage tariff deferment today. All new customers get $1,000 to reinvest in their business.   Launching a product isn't as crazy as it used to be.    Back in the 2010s, you could put up anything on Amazon and it would do huge numbers.    But today, its a different story.    You have to have enough reviews for your product and a low price to stand out from the competition at the minimum.    How do you get this all done? More importantly, what else can I do to guarantee success?    Here's the ultimate 3 month launch plan that we incorporate in our businesses for each new product we launch.    Takeaways In the first few weeks of launch, price your product 40% lower to attract buyers. Focus on exact targeting for PPC in early stages. Send your products into Amazon Vine to get reviews early. Gradually increase prices; Amazon hates when you increase prices abruptly. Utilize promotions based on how competitive your product category is. Auto campaigns help identify effective keywords that you can eventually add to your manual keywords. Aim for 30+ reviews for basic social proof. Incorporate top keywords into product imagery. If you get a lot of bad reviews, consider relaunching your product. Continuously improve your product based on customer feedback.

As triathletes, our mindset is just as crucial as our physical strength. In Jon Gordon's The Energy Bus, he shares 10 rules for driving your energy toward success. Let's apply those rules to your triathlon journey, turning obstacles into opportunities and maintaining the energy needed to reach your goals. 1. You're the Driver of Your Bus. You are in control of your journey. In triathlon, you choose how to show up each day—whether it's a tough workout, a challenging race, or life's distractions. Be the driver of your bus, not a passenger. Take charge of your mindset, your goals, and your daily actions. 2. Desire, Vision, and Focus Move Your Bus in the Right Direction. Set your sights on the finish line and keep your vision clear. Whether it's crossing the Ironman finish line or shaving time off your race, focusing on your desire will keep you motivated, even on the hard days. Vision will give your training purpose and drive. 3. Fuel Your Ride with Positive Energy. Just as a bus needs fuel to run, you need positive energy to keep going. Negative thoughts and self-doubt can derail you, but fueling your mind with positive affirmations, supportive teammates, and empowering self-talk will keep your wheels turning. 4. Invite People on Your Bus and Share Your Vision. You don't have to go on this journey alone. Surround yourself with people who believe in you and your goals. Whether it's your coach, training partners, or family, the energy of a supportive community can help you keep going when the road gets tough. 5. Don't Waste Your Energy on Those Who Don't Support You. You're going to encounter naysayers. Whether it's people questioning your goals or giving you negative feedback, don't waste time or energy on them. Stay focused on those who cheer you on and bring positivity to your life. Protect your energy—your race depends on it. 6. Think About What You Want, Not What You Don't Want. In triathlon, it's easy to focus on the challenges—fear of failure, bad weather, or tough competition. Instead, focus on your goals and what you want to achieve. Visualize success, and let that vision propel you forward with energy and determination. 7. Drive with Purpose. Every training session, every race, every recovery day should have purpose behind it. Whether you're hitting the pool or doing a long run, align your effort with your bigger goal. When you have purpose, every action counts, and the journey becomes meaningful. 8. Passion is Contagious. Let your passion for triathlon inspire others. Passion is magnetic—it fuels your drive and motivates those around you. When you bring energy and enthusiasm to your training, your teammates and training partners will rise to the occasion as well. 9. Love Your Passengers. Your teammates, coaches, and support crew are key to your journey. Appreciate their support and invest in these relationships. Whether it's a word of encouragement from a fellow athlete or advice from your coach, they help carry the load and make the ride more enjoyable. 10. Drive Your Bus to the End with Gratitude. Be grateful for each mile, each step of progress, and each race you complete. Gratitude will help you stay grounded and focused, and it will help you celebrate your victories—big and small. Every part of the journey is worth appreciating. Action item: This week, focus on driving your energy bus with purpose. Identify one area of your training or life where you can apply one of the 10 rules to create a positive impact. Share your energy with your training partners and keep your vision clear. Get behind the wheel of your success, and drive with confidence!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Race Week Builds Race Week Builds Bike Session Note For each effort, build from a moderate pace to threshold pace and hold for final 2' of each effort. Be sure to get full recovery between intervals. Don't overdo this session. Just priming for race day. Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 2 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4 Main Set 3 to 5 x 4 min @ Build to Z4 (4 min) Race Week Run Session Note Goal is to dial into race pace. Run comfortably and loose. Aim to hold race pace for the last 30 to 60 seconds of each effort. Don't go too hard. You're not going to gain much fitness in this single session, but you can certainly mess a lot up. Be conservative on this one. Warmup ~5-10 min of dynamic stretching and muscle activation Main Set 2 x 3 min @ Build to Race Pace (2 min jog) Balance of time @ Z2   Fun Segment: Race Week Roulette! Welcome to Race Week Roulette—the game where we test your triathlon instincts and race-day adaptability with all the curveballs race week can throw your way. Lost gear, mystery cramps, and weird dreams about forgetting your timing chip—nothing's off-limits. So buckle up and get ready to spin the wheel of race-week mayhem!    

Try this saucy little number on for size. Bet you thought McDonald's chicken nuggets couldn't be improved upon — they're fun to eat, high in protein, still (relatively) affordable and readily available. What more could a fast food fan want? Aim higher, say the food experts at Tasting Table, who report that TikTokkers have been lighting up the controversial social media site with a bizarre-sounding hack that's supposed to send the Golden Arches go-to over the top. In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Monday, More than 32,000 cyclists turned out for the annual Five Boro Bike Tour — with riders racing through the streets to beat out rain showers that swept over the city Sunday.Passengers with flights to or from Newark Liberty International Airport encountered long delays and cancellations Saturday due to an air traffic controller shortage, a nationwide problem the Trump administration has pledged to fix.And Billionaire Warren Buffett shocked an arena full of shareholders Saturday by announcing that he will retire at the end of the year, bringing the curtain down on a six-decade run leading Berkshire Hathaway that made him the most influential investor in the world.

Well we are back after a bit of a break. This is a second crack at Andrew reporting on his Japan trip. Good news, this was probably better than the original anyway. If it sounds different, it's because we went old school AOT and recorded it directly into the old trusty H4N. After Andrew's Japan recap we touch on a few project car updates.

June has arrived, and everything is turning green again. With no more mud and ice around, it becomes much easier for horse owners living in wet and snowy areas to get their horses moving as they should once more. This week, I share some tips to get your horse moving in spring, which is particularly important if your horse is on grass, with few other options.Movement MattersSpring and summer grasses are rich in sugars, which can be risky for horses with metabolic issues like insulin resistance or laminitis. Supplements may help manage those conditions, but regular physical activity is essential for maintaining their metabolic balance and general health.Small StepsSmall, regular efforts are more effective for horses than occasional intense workouts. Just 15 minutes of walking a few times a week can help to improve circulation, metabolism, muscle tone, detox pathways, and mood in horses. Encouraging Natural MovementSome horses are naturally less active when hay is readily available. You can encourage more movement by spreading their hay stations out, placing food and water at opposite ends of a paddock, or using slopes and snow to make horses do a little work for their meals, even in winter.Engaging the Body and MindScavenger hunts for alfalfa pellets or small pieces of carrot or cucumber will encourage your horse to move and provide mental stimulation without overfeeding. If your horse is not getting ridden, consider groundwork or short walks to boost circulation and muscle use. Use hoof boots for extra comfort if needed, and increase exercise gradually as your horse improves.Make It Work for Both of YouCombine exercising your horse with your fitness goals. If your goal is 10,000 steps a day, you can spend some time walking your horse around the pasture or driveway. For minis or horses that cannot be ridden, ponying or trotting them alongside another horse or a slow-moving vehicle can be an effective alternative.Prioritize and Plan MovementMake scheduled movement a priority for your horse. Aim for 2–3 sessions of 15-30 minutes per week. Over time, even brief, consistent activity will offer meaningful improvements. Supplements can support equine health, but movement is still a non-negotiable for managing sugar levels in horses, building their strength, and maintaining their long-term well-being.Links and resources:Connect with Elisha Edwards on her website Join my email list to be notified about new podcast releases and upcoming webinars.Free Webinar Masterclass: Four Steps to Solving Equine Metabolic Syndrome NaturallyRegister for my self-paced course, Resolving Equine Metabolic Syndrome Naturally.Mentioned in this episode:Learn the 4 Steps to Resolving Metabolic Syndrome NaturallySign up for the FREE masterclass today!Masterclass

In this empowering episode, we dive into one of the most common fears holding ambitious riders back: the fear of not seeing a distance, and what it really means when you're scared to step up a level. Whether you're hovering at 1.10m and terrified of even thinking about 1.15m, or constantly waiting to feel "ready" before pushing yourself forward, this conversation is for you. We unpack: Why fear of failure (and not fear of injury) is usually what's really holding you back The illusion of perfection, and how chasing it keeps you stuck What to do when fear is real (like after a fall), and how to work through it safely The mindset shift from “Ready, Aim, Fire” to “Fire, Aim, Ready” Why confidence is not a precondition to action, it's a result of taking it

In part one of this three-part series, Leonard discusses his early life and experiences with American injustice before joining the American Indian Movement (AIM). He goes on to explain how the FBI targeted AIM with the same counterintelligence apparatus that was used against Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, and the Black Panthers. When American businesses were interested in mining uranium in South Dakota, the FBI funded a paramilitary group that sought to neutralize any resistance on the Pine Ridge Reservation. To support the resistance effort, AIM set up camp at Jumping Bull Ranch. Leonard and his co-defendant Dino Butler tell us about their harrowing experience on June 26th, 1975, when tensions broke out into a deadly firefight.

Segment 1: • Jordan Peterson speaks to 20 atheists—but refuses to confess Christ. • His worldview sounds spiritual, but not biblical. • Apologetics can stir minds, but only the gospel saves souls. Segment 2: • Peterson dodges the “Are you a Christian?” question again and again. • Atheists press hard—and his answers only get murkier. • When you rely on intellect, you end up with confusion, not salvation. Segment 3: • Peterson lets atheists question God without pointing them to Christ. • The Bible has answers, but Peterson holds back. • One atheist shows openness—will someone give her the gospel? Segment 4: • Peterson debates morality; the atheists need mercy, not theory. • “Aim up” won't save anyone—only Jesus crucified for sinners. • A heart-wrenching reminder: truth without Christ is still lostness. – Order the new book, "Lies My Therapist Told Me", by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!

ORIGINALLY RELEASED May 20, 2021 In this episode, we speak with Nick Estes, author of Our History Is the Future, about the powerful throughline connecting the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee, the 1973 AIM occupation, and the 2016 resistance at Standing Rock. Far from isolated events, these are chapters in a living history of Indigenous struggle against settler colonialism, ecological devastation, and capitalist expansion. Estes brings a revolutionary lens to history; one that is rooted in land, memory, and the radical refusal to disappear. This isn't just a conversation about the past though, it's a call to understand that the continued fight for Indigenous sovereignty is the fight for a livable future.
