Interview with Campbell Baird, CEO of Asante GoldRecording date: 13th August 2026Asante Gold Corporation is working through an operational and leadership reset four months into Campbell Baird's tenure as Acting CEO, following the retirement of predecessor Dave Anthony. The company's investment case for 2026 hinges less on new catalysts than on execution against an already-disclosed plan: converting roughly $50 million of deferred or cancelled capital expenditure, combined with a narrower project focus, into the guided 275,000-300,000 ounce production range at an AISC of $3,200-$3,600 per ounce for the full year.The two operating assets are pulling in different directions operationally. Chirano has provided stability throughout 2026, delivering a consistent 10,000-11,000 ounces monthly even as Bibiani absorbed the impact of a January wall slip and an extended, costly stripping campaign in its Main Pit. Bibiani's ore has also proven more sulfidic than originally modelled, prompting a shift toward roughly 50% flotation processing and a sulfide recovery plant now being tied into the wider circuit - a process Baird estimated was roughly two months from completion.The key catalyst for H2 2026 performance is grade: Bibiani's head grade is expected to move from approximately 1.3-1.4 g/t over the past six months toward a targeted 1.7-1.8 g/t as mining progresses deeper into the Main Pit, directly underpinning the guided cost reduction weighted to Q4.On the resource side, Asante's 5 August NI 43-101 update showed combined Measured and Indicated Resources of 4.6 million ounces across both operations - effectively flat against December 2023 levels despite more than 430,000 ounces of production in the interim. Chirano's resource base grew materially (+443,000 ounces M&I since December 2023), supporting a seven-year mine life, while Bibiani's declined 17% on constrained exploration spend and open-pit depletion, even as its Main Pit is interpreted as geologically open to roughly 1,400 metres against only ~600 metres of current definition. The company frames the broader 80-kilometre Chirano-Bibiani Corridor as structurally comparable to far larger, more extensively drilled greenstone belts (Lefroy-Boulder, Abitibi), with a $23.4 million exploration budget allocated for 2026.On costs, management's own framing is notably conservative: Baird explicitly ruled out sub-$2,000/oz AISC as a credible near-term outcome, targeting below $3,000/oz only as a longer-term objective. This tempers what might otherwise be an overly optimistic reading of the company's cost trajectory, and is worth weighing against the wider sector-level cost inflation (diesel, labour, supply chain) that Baird cited as affecting gold producers broadly, not just Asante.The clearest risk flag for investors is guidance continuity: Asante's prior annual production target of 400,000-500,000 ounces remains formally withdrawn, with management stating directly it is not planning to reinstate it. The 275,000-300,000 ounce 2026 range should be treated as the only current, company-sanctioned figure.View Asante Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/asante-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
In a world filled with uncertainty, Jesus calls us to live with confidence, purpose, and hope. As we study Matthew 24 and what it says about the end times, we discover four anchors that will help us endure: understand the promises of God, receive the peace of God, prepare for persecution, and fulfill the purposes of God. Rather than living in fear of what is coming, we can fix our eyes on Jesus, trust that He is in control, and faithfully live out His calling until He returns.
What happens when worship becomes more than singing? It becomes standing in the gap. Our third anchor will explore worship that carries the needs of others into the presence of God. We'll discover how prayer and worship work together, why God invites His people to contend for others, and what it looks like to become a church that worships not only for ourselves, but on behalf of our families, our communities, our city, and a world in need.
If it feels like everyone around you is going through some version of an ending right now… you're not imagining it. August is a 9 Universal Month in Numerology… an archetypal threshold of endings, culmination, wisdom and release before we step into the fresh 1 energy of September. In this episode, I'm talking about what to do when you know something is over… but letting go still feels terrifying. I share 3 spiritual anchors for moving through an ending: 1. Humility: getting clear on what you were wrong about, what no longer works, and what you may not actually want anymore. 2. Your Wise Self: reconnecting with the deeper part of you that knew all along and allowing that part of you to take the helm. 3. Surrender: accepting what has happened, releasing your fight with the past, and allowing Spirit to handle what was never yours to control. If you are standing at the edge of an era (grieving, scared, uncertain, or wondering what comes next) this episode is for you. You haven't lost your magic. You may simply be in the final stages of birthing a wiser version of yourself. ✨ Book with Nat: Want to understand the Numerology of the cycle you are personally moving through?

My Daily Anchors: A Morning Routine for Peace in Busy Seasons What keeps you grounded when every day looks different? As a mom, entrepreneur, and homeschooler, I've learned that I don't need a perfectly structured morning routine—I need a few simple anchors I can return to when life gets busy. In this episode of The Classy Career Girl Podcast, I'm sharing the daily practices that help me stay rooted in my faith, focused on my priorities, and present with my family. I'm taking you behind the scenes of my real morning routine, including: • How I start my day even when I don't have time to sit quietly • The three journaling questions that help me clear my head • How I create my daily priority list without expecting myself to finish everything • Why I sometimes use ChatGPT to organize my brain dumps and to-do lists • The simple nutrition and strength-training habits I'm working on • How I move from quiet morning time into the reality of homeschooling, work, chores, and family life • Why I focus on consistent anchors instead of a rigid schedule The biggest lesson I've learned is that a peaceful life doesn't come from controlling every hour of your day. Some days are still messy. Some mornings don't go according to plan. And I definitely don't accomplish everything on my list. But having a few familiar practices to come back to helps me reset, refocus, and remember what matters most. If you're a busy mom trying to balance your faith, family, work, health, and everything else on your plate, this episode is your reminder: you don't need a perfect routine. You just need a few anchors that bring you back to what matters.
Project Anchor, a conspiracy theory that has been circulating for awhile, is set to come to fruition on Wednesday August 12th is a hot topic. The absolute realization that the Hatred most of us normal conservatives have tried to avoid surrounding Islamic Radicalism, Hard R fatigue, Democratic Socialism and Liberalism in general, has been surpassed and is now realized. Wokeness is facing an interesting battle in the world of sports, particularly in the WNBA. Should be fun!There's more to hash through in this episode as well Until Next Time…

Marianne Downing has a master's degree in Education (counseling) and began her career as a therapist before combining it with various roles within the nonprofit sector. She has been an entrepreneur since 2002. Since becoming a Latter-day Saint, Marianne served in the New Zealand Auckland mission, and as Relief Society president, counselor in her stake Primary presidency, stake Relief Society president, early morning Seminary teacher, and Young Women president. While living in Paris, France, she was called as part of a committee by the European Area Presidency to establish LDS Family Services in the French-speaking areas of France, Switzerland, and Belgium. She currently serves as a ward missionary. Alan Downing has a bachelor's degree in music from the Hartt School of Music. He sang professionally for ten years, including in synagogues and churches, while also working as an IT administrator with IBM, Verizon, and Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. He left the corporate world to become a life coach and has created several men's retreats and trainings. He has led or staffed well over 100 experiential retreats in the United States, Europe, and South and Central America. After his conversion as a Latter-day Saint, he served in the France Toulouse Mission, and has served in callings including as a member of his stake high council, elders quorum counselor, Sunday School teacher, ward finance clerk, ward and stake executive secretary, and many positions related to music. He currently serves as a ward music chairperson. Alan and Marianne are co-founders of the nonprofit organization, Discover Identity, and are both identity coaches. Alan is also on the board of the Utah Valley Interfaith Association and Marianne is a founding member of the Utah Valley Women Leadership Collaborative (now the Bolder Way Forward of Utah Valley). Alan and Marianne are the parents of a blended family of six children and 11—soon to be 12—grandchildren between the United States and New Zealand. Links Your Mission Aligned, nonprofit coaching services Discover Identity, nonprofit retreats Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights Alan and Marianne Downing discuss the concept of identity and its significance in personal development and leadership within the Latter-day Saint community. They emphasize the importance of understanding one’s identity beyond roles and societal expectations, particularly during life transitions. Key Insights Identity Exploration: The fundamental question of “Who am I?” is central to personal growth. Identity is not static; it evolves through life experiences and transitions, such as changes in church callings or family dynamics. Deeper Understanding: True identity goes beyond titles like “mother” or “bishop.” It involves understanding personal values, beliefs, and what makes each individual unique. Belonging vs. Fitting In: There is a distinction between belonging (sharing core beliefs) and fitting in (conforming to external expectations). Leaders should encourage individuality within the community to enhance unity. Risk and Growth: Personal growth often requires taking risks and stepping outside comfort zones. Experiences, such as retreats, can facilitate deeper understanding and wisdom. Mature vs. Immature Identity: Immature identity relies on external validation, while mature identity is anchored in self-awareness and allows for flexibility and growth. Leadership Applications Encourage Individuality: Leaders can foster an environment where members feel safe to express their unique identities, which can enhance community strength and diversity. Facilitate Experiences: Organizing smaller group discussions or experiential learning opportunities can help members explore their identities and support each other through personal challenges. Model Vulnerability: Leaders should be open about their own identity journeys, demonstrating that it is acceptable to question and explore one’s faith and personal growth, thereby creating a culture of openness and support. 00:05:07 – The Concept of Identity 00:06:40 – Exploring Identity Beyond Roles 00:08:07 – The Depth of Identity in the Gospel 00:09:32 – The Paradox of Identity and Individuality 00:10:29 – Navigating Group Identity vs. Individual Identity 00:12:28 – Personal Experiences with Identity 00:15:00 – The Downings’ Journey into Identity Work 00:18:01 – The Importance of Self-Discovery 00:20:40 – The Role of Experience in Identity Formation 00:24:40 – The Balance of Self and God's Expectations 00:26:41 – Mature vs. Immature Identity 00:30:12 – The Role of Risk in Growth 00:32:15 – Experiential Learning and Retreats 00:34:22 – The Need for Community in Personal Growth 00:36:47 – The Importance of Anchors in Identity 00:39:14 – Embracing the Journey of Identity The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints’ mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Hannah Richell on Writing Memoir, Grief, and An Ocean and a Day Join host and author Pamela Cook as she interviews author Hannah Richell about her memoir An Ocean and a Day, which explores the sudden death of her husband Matt in a surfing accident at Tamarama Beach in 2014 and the long journey of grief that followed. Richell discusses journaling as a survival tool, shaping years of writing into a memoir, and choosing a circular, tidal structure that moves between past and present to show what was lost and reflect how grief is experienced. She shares key influences and also talks about narrating the audiobook herself, deciding what to include about her children, and how touring and reader responses have been unexpectedly uplifting. 00:00 Level Up Writing Courses 01:39 Episode Updates and Memoir Intro 05:15 Memoir Overview and Loss 08:38 Beach Bookends and Ending 13:22 Writing Grief Into Words 17:30 Tidal Timeline Structure 24:02 Journaling to Memoir Draft2 9:38 Visitation Dream Story 32:56 Host Family Grief Reflection 36:42 Kids as Anchors 38:05 Writing Through Nights 38:42 Books That Held Me 42:34 Quoting and Permissions 44:18 Narrating the Audiobook 49:10 Shaping the Memoir 50:51 Privacy and Boundaries 56:20 Swallows and Tattoos 01:00:27 Touring and Reader Connection 01:03:39 Wrap Up and Farewell SHOWNOTES: Writes4Women www.writes4women.com Facebook @writes4women Twitter / Instagram @w4wpodcast W4W Substack Click here Hannah Richell Website: click here Facebook: click here Instagram: click here Pamela Cook www.pamelacook.com.au Facebook @amelacookauthor Twitter @PamelaCookAU This episode produced by Pamela Cook for Writes4Women and recorded on unceded Dharawal land.

What if the future of the church isn't built on simply getting more people to volunteer, but on helping every person discover how God has uniquely gifted them? Anchor #2 covers a significant shift in the life of our church: moving from a culture of volunteerism to spiritual gifts. Volunteers fill a need, but spiritually gifted people are equipped to participate in the mission of God from the overflow of who He has created and called them to be.
Have you ever looked into someone's eyes and noticed... The sparkle was gone? ✨ Maybe it was your child. Maybe it was your spouse. Maybe... it was you. Life has a way of wearing us down. The weight of hard seasons, unanswered prayers, and overwhelming circumstances can leave us feeling exhausted and alone. If you've ever wondered whether hope can return, this episode is for you. ❤️ Hi Neighbor, In today's episode, we're exploring a powerful question: How does God restore the sparkle in our eyes? ✨ We'll begin in Psalm 13, where David cries out from a place of deep anguish, convinced God has forgotten him. But by the end of the psalm, everything changes. What happened? Then we'll turn to 2 Corinthians 1, where the Apostle Paul reveals one of God's most powerful ways of bringing comfort to hurting people. What is that? I'll also share a conversation from our family camp that reminded me how our adoption stories—both the victories and the struggles—can become a source of hope for other adoptive parents.

Welcome to today's Guided Prayer, where we invite you to find a quiet space to still your mind and body. Guided Prayers are a daily 5–10 minute, intentionally created moment to slow down and meet with God—through scripture, reflection, and honest prayer.It's not a program you attend.It's a pathway you practice.A guided space where people can stop, breathe, and connect with Jesus—every single day.
We want to teach people how to follow Jesus in a world full of distraction. Following Jesus involves several relational touch points that help us see the need for community, accountability, teaching, and sharpening. Join us as we consider our first anchor and how it impacts every area of our lives.
Have you ever noticed how a simple walk can completely change your perspective? Sometimes the clearest thinking doesn't happen when we're trying harder. Sometimes it happens when we simply start walking.
Few battles cut deeper than the double blow of discovering your spouse has committed adultery and then facing the finality of divorce. Each one by itself can flatten the soul. But when they come together in succession, it feels like an earthquake followed by a tsunami. Your compass spins wildly, your sense of safety collapses, and God Himself can seem hard to find or understand. I write this conclusion with you in mind: the one whose heart has been ripped in two and who wonders if life will ever steady again. Maybe you are in the thick of it now, or maybe you are walking with someone who is. Either way, the counsel here is meant to give you perspective, hope, and practical handles for the long journey forward.

If there is a painful memory, an old grudge, or a person you keep replaying in your mind, today is your day to let go of what no longer serves you. Releasing the past isn't about pretending it didn't happen; it's about freeing yourself from the heavy baggage that weighs you down so you can carry less and breathe more. In this episode of Calming Anxiety, clinical hypnotherapist and former frontline paramedic Martin Hewlett guides you through a powerful 10-minute somatic release practice. You will discover how the body physically stores the tension of old emotional hurts and learn how to consciously loosen your grip on these negative anchors. Whether you are carrying a recent disappointment or a long-held injustice, this gentle guided meditation will help you break free from old stories, process past pain without judgment, and reclaim the peace that belongs to you in the present moment. Time Chapters00:00 – Letting Go of What No Longer Serves You 00:33 – Welcome to Calming Anxiety with Martin Hewlett 01:16 – Identifying Your Negative Anchors 01:43 – Somatic Breathing: Relaxing and Letting Go 02:02 – How the Body Holds Stress and Emotional Trauma 03:01 – Visualization: Lightening the Weight of Old Hurts 04:08 – Guided Affirmations for Deep Emotional Release 07:02 – 3 Daily Caring Tips for Moving Beyond the Past 08:25 – Grounding and Returning Awareness to the Room 08:46 – Martin's Personal Journey: Training the Mind to Find the Light 09:52 – Outro: Becoming Your Own Beacon of Hope AffirmationsRepeat these words silently or softly out loud to loosen the grip of old emotional ties: "I release what no longer serves me." "I am not anchored to my past pain." "I let go of the crutches and the fears that weigh me down." "I am free to grow beyond old stories." "I choose peace over the weight I've been carrying." 3 Daily Caring TipsName the Anchor: You cannot release what you haven't consciously identified. Take a moment today to specifically name one grudge, old story, or hurt you are ready to put down; naming it out loud immediately strips away some of its power. The Release Ritual: Physically write down the thing that is weighing you down in just one sentence. Fold the paper up or place it in a drawer to send a physical signal to your nervous system that it is safe to stop holding on. Loosen the Grip: Real emotional release rarely happens all at once, and that is perfectly okay. When the old thought or memory returns today, don't fight it—simply focus on holding it a little more loosely than you did yesterday. OutroLetting go of trauma and old injustices can be one of the hardest things we ever achieve, but please remember that whatever you are going through right now, there is always light and there is always hope. If this 10-minute sanctuary helped lighten your emotional load today, please consider sharing this episode with someone in your life who might be quietly carrying their own heavy anchors. You might be the beacon of hope they need to finally breathe easier. Thank you so much for putting your faith, trust, and time into this practice. Practice positivity when you see your reflection, smile often, and in every thought, word, and deed—be kind.
On Tuesday's Drivetime with DeRusha.... 3pm Hour: Alix Kendall is in for Jason. She talks about KARE 11 anchor Julie Nelson giving an update on her health after a boating accident last month. How much information about the accident and her health does the general public have a right to know? Then she talks with Edie Renner, owner of Motel Ely, about how the community is coming together in the wake of the wildfires, and how the rest of Minnesota can pitch in? 4pm Hour: Alix talks with Blois Olson about what will drive people's votes this fall. Given the rash of recent shootings, will public safety join fraud and affordability as hot topics? Then she talks about France becoming the latest country (and first EU country) to ban social media.

Have you ever reached the end of the day feeling completely drained?
Key TakeawaysBig anchors (Chick-fil-A, In-N-Out, Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods, Bass Pro, etc.) spend millions on site selection; small investors can “ride their wave” by buying/ building nearby instead of guessing.Don't rely only on listed deals (Krexie, LoopNet), gut feel, or trailing comps; look forward to where development, permits, rooftops, and city plans (like Nashville Next) are headed.Anchors study traffic counts and speed, AM/PM side of the road, daytime population, growth trajectory, access (right-in/right-out, signals), and co‑tenancy—these same factors should guide your decisions.Case studies (Dickerson Pike, Rivergate Mall) show how land near future anchors can double in value within a few years once major campuses, stadiums, or redevelopments are announced.There is typically an 18–24 month opportunity window between anchor announcement and opening where pricing hasn't fully caught up—ideal time for most investors to buy nearby.Four main anchor types: QSR scouts, value big box, destination anchors, and redevelopment anchors; all can “make” a corridor and create demand for surrounding strip centers, pads, flex, and services.Watch for hard signals: actual closings and public incentives (TIFs, grants, PILOTs) that confirm big capital is committed to an area.Core principle: anchors don't just find good corners anymore; they create them—your job is to own real estate next door when they do.

Contemporary technology governance has shifted from rule-based regulation to a landscape defined by administrative leverage and directive-driven decisions. This dynamic is seen in both the cybersecurity and AI sectors, where agencies such as the U.S. Department of Defense and companies including OpenAI and Anthropic navigate obligations and approvals through administrative action rather than statutory change. As a result, MSPs and IT service providers must recognize that the durability of their offerings and client architectures increasingly hinges on how they respond to rapid, unpredictable shifts in the governing environment rather than on fixed compliance deadlines or product release dates. A notable example of this mechanism is the Department of Defense's suspension of the rollout of Phase Two of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), as reported by Federal News Network. About 80,000 companies had been preparing for new third-party assessment requirements, but these assessments have been paused pending a 60-day review. Despite the pause, the underlying data protection requirements for defense contractors remain in force, demonstrating that while compliance deadlines can disappear overnight, fundamental security obligations persist. Additional cases amplify the trend toward directive-based governance. The U.S. Commerce Department lifted export restrictions on Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models after new safeguards were implemented, following the same pattern previously used to impose those restrictions. Similarly, OpenAI's GPT 5.6 model was released to the public only after a voluntary government review concluded, illustrating that administrative reviews, not boardroom decisions, can dictate technology availability. Concurrently, other governments such as China are employing similar tactics, with Reuters reporting that Chinese authorities have met with local AI firms to discuss restricting overseas access to advanced models. These parallel moves across geopolitical boundaries indicate a structural reliance on executive discretion rather than legislative clarity. The operational impact for MSPs, IT service providers, and technology leaders is a heightened exposure to contract risk and pricing volatility. Service commitments anchored to deadlines, default settings, or product availability are susceptible to abrupt policy reversals or administrative interventions, translating to sudden revenue shortfalls and reactive client management. The recommended response is to audit current commitments, identify those pegged to mutable triggers rather than enduring obligations, and systematically re-anchor contract language and client communication to core outcomes and standing requirements. This preparation mitigates the risk of unpaid work, scope renegotiation, and unplanned operational disruption when another directive-driven policy shift occurs. 00:00 Three Government Switches in Three Weeks 04:07 Why AI Is Governed by Leverage, Not Law 06:46 CMMC Paused — Your Obligations Didn't 09:27 Why Do We Care?

What is more American than entrepreneurship, not the faux version appropriated by heirs to affluent parents but the creation of small businesses by risk takers seeking to support their families, innovate goods and services, and invigorate their communities? As Audrey Roofeh explains on this episode of Power Station, it was small business owners who gambled their own safety to take care of community members during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis by the US Department of Homeland Security and ICE. An entrepreneur herself, Audrey's firm Mariana Strategies, which helped federal agencies cultivate workplaces free from misogyny, racism and anti-LGBTQ conduct was put out of business by a White House executive order banning DEI initiatives by government contractors. Audrey heard the alarm expressed by fellow small business owners about sustainability in a marketplace where the Rule of Law no longer applied. She founded Integrity Matters, a unique association or small business owners impacted by tariffs, ICE crackdowns, inflation and unpredictable governance. Its members are now organizing to protect voters in upcoming elections, a powerful example of how small business owners invest in us.
