I'm fired up and ready to talk about something that hits close to home—balancing motherhood and being an ambitious entrepreneur. I came across a quote that said women are expected to work like they don't have kids, mother like they don't have a job, and look like they are effortlessly managing both. Why are we promoting this narrative of perfection? Join me as I break down these unrealistic expectations and share my personal journey of integrating motherhood with my business. I'll talk about the importance of setting your own standards, establishing clear boundaries, and leading with authenticity. Let's challenge the status quo together and empower other women to do the same. Even if you aren't a mom, this episode has takeaways that will change the way you approach business. Tune in, reflect on some crucial questions, and let's redefine what success looks like!

Maor Shlomo is the founder of Base44, an AI-powered app builder that he bootstrapped to an over $80 million acquisition by Wix in just six months. As a solo founder (with severe ADHD), he hit $1 million ARR just three weeks after launch and grew the product to more than 400,000 users, all while navigating two wars in Israel and never raising a dollar of outside funding.What you'll learn:1. The growth playbook that took Base44 from three friends to 400,000 users without spending any money on marketing2. How he hasn't written a single line of front-end code in three months—and how to structure your code repository to make it easier for AI to write your code3. His AI productivity stack that allowed him to compete against heavily funded competitors4. Why being a solo founder in AI might be the ultimate advantage (and the wedding story that almost killed the business)5. The story of signing the $80M acquisition deal while war broke out with Iran6. How to identify when to sell vs. stay independent (and why Maor chose acquisition despite being highly profitable)7.

Two-and-a-half years later, on a beach on the island of Hawaii, Cook was killed in a conflict with native Hawaiians. How did Cook, who was unique among captains for his respect for Indigenous peoples and cultures, come to that fatal moment? Hampton Sides' bravura account of Cook's last journey both wrestles with Cook's legacy and provides a thrilling narrative of the titanic efforts and continual danger that characterized exploration in the 1700s. Cook was renowned for his peerless seamanship, his humane leadership, and his dedication to science-–the famed naturalist Joseph Banks accompanied him on his first voyage, and Cook has been called one of the most important figures of the Age of Enlightenment. He was also deeply interested in the native people he encountered. In fact, his stated mission was to return a Tahitian man, Mai, who had become the toast of London, to his home islands. On previous expeditions, Cook mapped huge swaths of the Pacific, including the east coast of Australia, and initiated first European contact with numerous peoples. He treated his crew well, and endeavored to learn about the societies he encountered with curiosity and without judgment. Yet something was different on this last voyage. Cook became mercurial, resorting to the lash to enforce discipline, and led his two vessels into danger time and again. Uncharacteristically, he ordered violent retaliation for perceived theft on the part of native peoples. This may have had something to do with his secret orders, which were to chart and claim lands before Britain's imperial rivals could, and to discover the fabled Northwest Passage. Whatever Cook's intentions, his scientific efforts were the sharp edge of the colonial sword, and the ultimate effects of first contact were catastrophic for Indigenous people around the world. The tensions between Cook's overt and covert missions came to a head on the shores of Hawaii. His first landing there was harmonious, but when Cook returned after mapping the coast of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, his exploitative treatment of the Hawaiians led to the fatal encounter. At once a ferociously-paced story of adventure on the high seas and a searching examination of the complexities and consequences of the Age of Exploration, THE WIDE WIDE SEA is a major work from one of our finest narrative nonfiction writers.

On June 25, NATO leaders agreed at their annual summit on a goal of spending five percent of their gross domestic product on defense, more than doubling the old two-percent target. It's unclear how many members will actually reach this goal. Even the target relies on some creative accounting: of the five percent, only 3.5 percent is pledged to what officials call “pure” defense spending, with the remainder going to security and defense-related “critical infrastructure.” Ahead of the NATO summit, The New Yorker published “Collective Punishment: Why is Donald Trump upending America's commitment to NATO?” a story by contributing writer Joshua Yaffa, the author of the 2021 Orwell Prize-winning book “Between Two Fires: Truth, Ambition, and Compromise in Putin's Russia.” In his new article, Yaffa describes how the looming threats of Russian aggression and American withdrawal are pressuring European leaders to reassess their approach to NATO and their broader defense strategies. He joined this episode of The Naked Pravda to discuss the story.Как поддержать нашу редакцию — даже если вы в России и вам очень страшно

Episode 2643: Evan Marc Katz helps a self-aware woman navigate the conflict between love and ambition in her long-term relationship. Through compassionate questioning, he invites her to weigh the irreplaceable value of emotional safety against her desire for intellectual and professional stimulation, reminding us that no partner can fulfill every need, and that acceptance might be the most underrated form of love. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/chemistry/my-boyfriend-is-wonderful-but-not-ambitious-or-successful Quotes to ponder: "You're not shallow for craving conversation that doesn't revolve around pop culture." "It's a failing proposition to expect one man to be all things to you." "The ability to quote Proust pales in comparison with the person who will drive you to your chemo treatments in thirty years."

In this episode, we're diving into the Human Design gates activating in July, and let's just say, there's a lot of root pressure and throat energy in the mix. We explore:- Gate 39 (Provocation) and Gate 38 (The Fighter) — the pressure to poke, provoke, and push for meaning - Gate 53 (Beginnings) and Gate 54 (Ambition) — initiating energy and the drive to rise - Gate 62 (Details) and Gate 61 (Mystery) — logic vs. inner truth and the tension between facts and wonder - Gate 56 (Storytelling) and Gate 60 (Limitation) — how we communicate meaning and what grounds it - Gate 31 (Leadership) and Gate 41 (Imagination) — holding a vision and leading with purpose - Gate 33 (Privacy) and Gate 19 (Attunement) — reflection, boundaries, and sensing who's truly aligned Key themes: pressure, clarity, emotional reactivity, timing, truth, and collective leadership.This month asks for discernment, not reaction. Let's walk through the energies so you can move with awareness, not overwhelm.Timestamps:- 0:00 Welcome and catch up- 3:06 Intro to Transits- 9:41 July 1st Transit (Sun Gate 39, Earth Gate 38)- 25:31 July 7th Transit (Sun Gate 53, Earth Gate 54)- 37:45 July 13th Transit (Sun Gate 62, Earth Gate 61)- 51:10 July 19th Transit (Sun Gate 56, Earth Gate 60)- 1:05:42 July 25th Transit (Sun Gate 31, Earth Gate 41)- 1:14:39 July 31st Transit (Sun Gate 33, Earth Gate 19)- 1:24:27 Wrap Up Transits- 1:28:39 ICX of the WeekTired of fighting your own energy?

In these two explosive segments, Tara and Lee expose the alarming rise of extremist policies and the global forces emboldening them. First, they dissect New York socialist politician Zohran Mamdani's brazen defense of taxing neighborhoods by race, highlighting how the rhetoric of “equity” is just a pretext for classic political persecution—and a roadmap to punish dissenting constituencies. Tara warns this ideology is the natural endpoint of Democratic policies that demonize entire groups for political gain. Then, they pivot to the international stage, where Iran's top clerics have doubled down on fatwas calling for the assassination of Trump and Netanyahu. Tara reveals how Iran's nuclear program—propped up by Chinese scientists and oil revenues—is quickly rebuilding despite U.S. bunker-buster strikes. And she underscores the chilling historical parallels between today's socialist promises and the Marxist revolutions of the 20th century: seizing the means of production, dismantling law enforcement, and controlling food and energy to cement power over the population. From local race-based taxation schemes to international terror threats and economic subversion, Tara argues these stories are all part of a bigger, unreported pattern: an authoritarian vision that's far closer to home than many Americans realize.
Send us a textEver felt like no matter how much you accomplish, it's never enough? You're not alone. Ambition—that driving force behind achievement—can sometimes lead us into what I call "the unintentional abyss of ambition," where periods of stillness or rest become sources of self-criticism rather than rejuvenation.In this deeply personal episode, I share my own recent struggles with feeling insufficient despite evidence to the contrary. Drawing on Dr. Ben Hardy's powerful concept of "the gap and the gain," we explore why high performers often measure themselves against idealized standards (the gap) rather than acknowledging how far they've come (the gain). Through real examples—from marathon runners fixating on qualifying times rather than celebrating personal records, to my own tendency to overlook the transformative impact of my work because I haven't reached arbitrary numeric goals—we unpack this common mindset trap.The most powerful moment comes from a community member who lost 30 pounds and completely transformed his relationship with discipline. His journey from believing change was impossible to creating sustainable healthy habits for himself and his family perfectly illustrates the power of living in "the gain." I also recommend Byron Katie's book "Loving What Is: The Work" as a resource for questioning the stories we tell ourselves and optimizing our way of being rather than just our external achievements.Whether you're building a business, pursuing fitness goals, or working on personal growth, this episode will help you recognize when you're falling into the gap and give you practical tools to shift your perspective. Remember, you are special and amazing—don't let ambition blind you to that truth.

While in a small city, I saw a performance that was fairly ambitious for the location. And they did about as well as a group of amateurs could do. They took the work seriously. They committed to it and gave energetic performances. If they were my students, I'd be proud of them!But watching this performance made me remember what it was like to be a young actor in a small city.
