What does it mean to repair what has been broken, and can there be beauty in that work?In this episode of Makers & Mystics, Stephen Roach is joined by Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg for a thoughtful conversation on repentance, accountability, and the demanding work of repair. As part of our ongoing series on beauty, this episode explores repentance not as performance or apology, but as a process of truth-telling, learning, and transformation.Drawing from ancient Jewish wisdom and contemporary justice work, Rabbi Danya reflects on how individuals, communities, and institutions can move toward healing after harm—and why art, imagination, and beauty are essential for sustaining the work of justice and hope.Send us a textSupport the show Get Tickets to The Breath and The Clay 2026 featuring Malcolm Guite, Jon Guerra, and Jonathan Pageau!

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 치유의 기억| When Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Medicine: The Integrative Pediatrician — The One With Dr. Tokunbo Akande | Episode 38 (2025)Lately, I've been thinking a lot about how many of us are holding two things at once: prescription bottles on one hand, herbal teas and mindfulness practices on the other. Somewhere in the middle, a question keeps surfacing for me: what does healing look like when we stop asking it to choose between science and soul?In this episode, I sit with Dr. Tokunbo Akande, a board-certified pediatrician, clinical informaticist, and dual-trained fellow in integrative medicine and Ayurveda. Dr. Akande moves with ease between worlds. He can talk vaccine schedules and electronic health records, and in the same breath speak to doshas, herbs, and the wisdom he grew up with. We talk about how ancient healing traditions can live alongside modern medicine, why stories matter in clinical spaces, and what sustainable wellbeing really looks like when you're navigating burnout, cultural displacement, and the quiet loss of inherited knowledge.Dr. Akande shares his journey, from growing up with childhood asthma in Nigeria to nearly leaving medical school, to rediscovering the herbs that reshaped his relationship with healing during the pandemic, and eventually founding Harmony 360 Health. Along the way, we reflect on what gets lost when medicine forgets the body, and what becomes possible when we learn to listen again.If you're tired of the false choice between East and West, traditional and modern, this conversation offers something gentlerand truer. A reminder that healing isn't something we outsource, and balance isn't passive. It's a practice.At the end of the episode, Tokunbo offers a short guided body scan. It's a small gift; five quiet minutes that might help you come back home to yourself.

In this episode of Acta Non Verba, host Marcus Aurelius Anderson examines one of philosophy's most provocative questions: Was Seneca a hypocrite? Through the lens of Stoic philosophy and Roman history, Marcus explores the dangerous cognitive trap of hypocrisy bias and challenges listeners to examine their own inconsistencies before judging others. Episode Highlights [0:45] The Seneca Question: Was the wealthy Roman philosopher who forced loans on conquered peoples truly living by Stoic principles, or was he a hypocrite? [2:10] Understanding Hypocrisy Bias: How our tendency to judge others' inconsistencies more harshly than our own blinds us to truth and derails meaningful discussions. [6:16] The Marcus Aurelius Paradox: Even the revered philosopher-emperor struggled with anger daily and made questionable decisions like allowing his son Commodus to take power. [7:38] 30-Day Reflection Challenge: Three critical questions to examine your own hypocrisy, how you judge others, and whether imperfect messengers can still deliver truth.

Every day we are flooded with decisions, voices, opinions, and advice. We live in a world with a glut of information at our fingertips, yet we often feel uncertain about how to live wisely. What we need is not more data, but wisdom. The book of Proverbs offers God's wisdom for real life, shaping how we speak, work, decide, and love in the everyday moments that matter most. But Proverbs does not ultimately lead us to wise principles. It leads us to a person, Jesus Christ, the true wisdom of God, our redemption and our life. Listen in as we walk through Proverbs and learn how to live wisely in a complicated world!

Key Takeaways: Managing Emotions Matters: Successful investing starts with emotional control. When you calm nervous energy, you can think more clearly and make better decisions. Know the Difference Between Fear and Intuition: Fear and anxiety create urgency and confusion. Intuition feels calm and steady, and it helps guide thoughtful, informed actions. Emotional Stability Starts at Home: Spending quality time and being present with family helps regulate emotions. This stability carries over into better, more mature financial choices. Volatility Can Be an Advantage: Market ups and downs don't have to be scary. When understood and respected, volatility can open the door to long-term wealth. Use Both Logic and Emotional Intelligence: Smart investing combines numbers and analysis with self-awareness and intuition. Both are important for making sound decisions over time.   Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Emotional Regulation as a Key to Successful Investing 3:18 Harnessing Nervous Energy Into Intuition for Positive Outcomes 9:21 Understanding Fear, Anxiety, and Intuition in the Body 11:24 Harnessing Intuition as a Timeless Source of Inner Wisdom 13:16 Transforming Anxiety into Intuition Through Mindful Practices 17:14 Ancient Wisdom and Modern Science: Bridging the Knowledge Gap 21:26 Co-Regulation and Parenting Through Self-Regulation 26:45 Harnessing Market Volatility Through Intuition and Energy Management   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

In this episode, Davies Owens briefly steps into the archives to revisit a valuable conversation with Dr. Louis Markos on how the ancient world understood virtue, education, and human flourishing, and why those insights remain essential today.Dr. Markos explains how the Greeks and Romans, though lacking Christian revelation, asked the right questions about human nature, moral formation, and the purpose of education. Figures such as Socrates and Plato modeled humility, rational discourse, and civic responsibility, forming a vision of education aimed not merely at usefulness, but at virtue.Together, Davies and Dr. Markos explore why classical Christian education continues to draw from this ancient inheritance. Far from being outdated, a liberal arts education grounded in timeless truths prepares students to engage a modern, technology-driven world with wisdom, clarity, and courage.

Send us a textThe truth is out: If your clients are struggling with slow healing, relentless fatigue, or impaired milk production, the cold food in their diet is the root cause. For generations, reductionist nutrition dismissed the ancient, global wisdom of warming foods as mere cultural folklore. They were wrong. This episode is your urgent intervention, proving with hard science that ice water and cold cereal actively deplete the new mother's energy reserves, fueling everything from anxiety to postpartum depression.Maranda dives into the non-negotiable physiology—from digestive enzyme function to nervous system regulation—that proves traditional postpartum care systems (like TCM and Ayurveda) understood holistic health far better than modern medicine. Discover the concrete, scientific mechanisms that validate the Warming Foods Principle and learn how to integrate this critical postpartum nutrition strategy immediately, giving your clients the rapid, foundational recovery they deserve. It's time to stop letting modern convenience trump functional healing!Check out the episode on the blog HERE. Key time stamps: 00:30: The universal consensus: Traditional postpartum care systems across the globe mandate warm foods.04:15: Examples from TCM, Ayurveda, Latin American, African, and European traditions.11:47: Why modern medicine dismissed this ancient wisdom as superstition (reductionism, male-dominated science).19:50: Physiological mechanism 1: Cold food impairs digestive enzyme function at 98.6°F.21:20: Physiological mechanism 2: Cold causes vasoconstriction, impairing blood flow and nutrient absorption.23:45: Physiological mechanism 3: Cold forces metabolic energy expenditure (thermogenesis) the mother can't afford.26:38: Physiological mechanism 4: Cold activates sympathetic "fight or flight," warm supports parasympathetic "rest and digest."29:10: The role of warming spices (ginger, cinnamon, turmeric) in promoting gastric secretions.31:45: The link between warm foods, optimal blood flow, and robust milk production.34:23: Addressing objections: Hot climates and the difference between "refreshing" and "beneficial."36:50: The power of the Three Pillars of Knowledge (Science, Stories, Practice) for optimal perinatal health education.NEXT STEPS:

In this conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Mark Moore, pastor, teacher, and author of Core 52 , Quest 52, Wisdom 52, and more to explore why biblical wisdom isn't information to master—but formation to live into.Together, they unpack the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why so many leaders are spiritually informed yet inwardly exhausted, and how a slow, intentional engagement with Scripture can stabilize the soul in a distracted, accelerated world.Mark shares insights from decades of teaching and pastoring, emphasizing the power of weekly rhythms, long obedience, and letting God's Word shape not just beliefs—but desires, decisions, and leadership presence.This episode is a call back to depth over hustle, formation over performance, and wisdom that actually holds when life and leadership get heavy.Perfect for leaders, husbands, pastors, and high-capacity men who want more than quick inspiration—they want lives that are rooted, resilient, and whole.Coaching that aligns identity, marriage, and vocation for extraordinary success. www.lantzhoward.com

Have you ever wondered why challenges seem to show up right when you're finally stepping into your power? Or why moments of anxiety feel so intense, it's almost as if they're blocking your path? In this week's episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with my longtime Kabbalah teacher and dear friend, Eitan Yardeni, to explore the deeper spiritual mechanics of life. Kabbalah is ancient wisdom that has always resonated deeply with my beliefs and faith.   Eitan, a globally respected Kabbalah teacher and Madonna's longtime spiritual mentor, has over 30 years of experience and a gift for making ancient wisdom deeply practical. Together, we explore soul vs. ego, why discomfort is part of transformation, and how to trust the guidance that leads you into a bigger version of yourself. We also explore some of life's hardest questions: Why do we experience suffering? What does Kabbalah say about anxiety, miracles, and the unseen 99% of reality? How do we navigate loss, trust the bigger picture, and stay connected to our purpose when everything feels uncertain? Throughout our conversation, Eitan shares powerful insights about expanding your vessel, cultivating true fulfillment, and embracing the light that's hidden inside the very moments we tend to resist. This is one of my favorite conversations of the year, and I hope it will be as enlightening for you as it was for me! If you're craving a deeper understanding of your path, if you're navigating a challenge, or if you simply want to feel more connected to yourself and the world around you, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. It's expansive, grounding, and filled with the kind of reminders that stay with you long after the conversation ends. Key Moments You'll Love ✨: ✨ [0:00] The Month of Miracles & Sagittarius Energy

In this episode, HeHe sits down with Dr. Sophia Johnson to pull back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood topics in postpartum recovery: placentophagy. Together, they dig into the science, the cultural traditions, and the ancient wisdom behind consuming the placenta… a practice that's been normalized around the world long before Western medicine ever tried to dismiss it. Dr. Sophia breaks down what we actually know about placenta encapsulation, why so many parents report better mood, energy, and hormonal balance, and how oxytocin and postpartum hormone shifts come into play. You'll also hear practical tips for handling and preparing placenta safely, plus a look at why these rituals hold such deep meaning across cultures — and why the traditional medical system still struggles to acknowledge the value of them. If you're curious about the real role the placenta plays in healing after birth, this conversation is rich, grounding, and packed with the kind of nuance you won't hear anywhere else.

What if peace in your life, and peace in the world, begins with the smallest shifts inside of you? In this episode, host Elizabeth Mintun weaves together two timeless folktales, the Taoist story of the Useless Tree and the Cherokee legend of the Two Wolves. Together, these stories illuminate how slowing down, regulating our inner world, and choosing compassion over urgency creates the foundation for lasting calm. Elizabeth talks about how, as we step toward a new year, many of us are craving more peace in our relationships, our homes, and in the world. She suggests that peace doesn't begin with resolutions or perfect habits. It begins within. And when we nurture it gently and consistently, it ripples outward in ways we may never fully see.Key TakeawaysInner peace is grounded self-connection.True inner peace can come from staying connected to yourself, even when life feels busy, emotional, or uncertain.What you feed internally shapes your emotional well-being. Inner peace grows from daily choices, such as where you place your attention, how you respond to stress, and which inner patterns you nurture.Rest and slowness are essential for mental and emotional health. In a productivity-driven culture, creating space, slowing down, and tending to your nervous system are necessary for sustainable peace.Resources Sign up for Intentional 2026: 3 Days to Reset & Realign here.Learn more about 1:1 Coaching with Elizabeth Mintun here.

What if money isn't as "real" as we think it is? This week, Sarah talks to spiritual coach, tour leader, and money mindset mentor Halle Eavelyn about the deep, often hidden beliefs that shape women's relationships with wealth. From a life-changing awakening in Egypt to writing The Passive Income Power Plan, Halle shares how she helps women remember their power—and step fully into it. Here's something wild: women couldn't open their own bank accounts until 1974. Today, we still receive only 3% of venture capital funding. These aren't just statistics—they're symptoms of deep programming affecting how we approach money right now. Halle had a profound moment in the dining room of a Nile cruise ship during a guided meditation. She received a download that hit every cell of her body: "You have a soul and you will never die." That spiritual awakening sparked a 30-year exploration into consciousness, intuition, and how women can reclaim their birthright to wealth. If you've been wondering why you haven't been making more money, or if you've been feeling stuck around the idea that you deserve wealth - this conversation is for you. This is episode 312 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast.

In this episode, Sherry talks with Amy Stein, an herbalist, energy medicine educator, trauma-informed breathwork facilitator, and motivational speaker, to explore what it really means to heal — beyond symptoms, diagnoses, and willpower.This episode is a powerful reminder that your body is not broken — it's communicating.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeAmy shares her personal journey of growing up immersed in Western medicine, only to find herself chronically ill in her mid-20s — mirroring the very patients she once worked with. What followed was years of unanswered questions, standardized protocols, and the painful realization that being “too sensitive” was never the problem.Together, Sherry and Amy unpack the deeper layers of healing — trauma, safety, energy, breath, and the body's innate intelligence.Key Topics We Explore:1. When the Body Speaks — and No One ListensAmy describes what it's like to experience invisible illness and autoimmune symptoms in a system that only validates what it can measure. This conversation will resonate deeply with anyone who has felt dismissed, unseen, or told “everything looks normal” when it clearly isn't.2. Trauma Isn't Just What Happened — It's the Body's ResponseThis episode gently dismantles the idea that trauma has to be “big” to be real.Trauma can be grief, chronic stress, dieting, emotional suppression, or even daily traffic.The body doesn't distinguish between past and present — or perceived and real threats.What matters is how the nervous system responds.3. Safety, the Nervous System & Why Healing Can Feel ImpossibleSherry and Amy explore why true healing can't happen in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn — and why so many people stay stuck in survival mode for decades.You'll hear how:Restriction (including dieting) can be traumatic to the bodyFeeling unsafe in your body drives self-sabotageThe body prioritizes survival over thrivingAnd why learning to feel safe again is foundational for healing, weight regulation, and emotional freedom.4. Why Awareness Alone Isn't EnoughMany people in therapy develop deep awareness of their triggers — yet remain stuck. Amy explains how repeatedly retelling trauma without engaging the body can actually re-traumatize the nervous system, and why healing must include the physical and energetic body — not just the mind.5. Breathwork: The Most Accessible Healing Tool We HaveBreathwork becomes the heart of this episode.Amy explains why breath is so powerful:It directly regulates the nervous systemIt brings awareness back into the bodyIt requires no equipment, no story, and no perfectionUnlike meditation, breathwork allows movement, sound, emotion, and release — giving the body permission to process what it's been holding for years.6. Energy Medicine, Ancient Wisdom & Trusting What You Can't SeeThis conversation bridges ancient healing systems — herbalism, meridians, energy medicine — with modern nervous system science.Amy shares how combining:Plant medicineEnergy medicineBreathworkTrauma-informed supportcreated the breakthroughs that traditional medicine never could.Powerful TakeawaysYour body is not failing — it's communicatingTrauma is stored energy that needs movement, not suppressionHealing requires safety, not forceThe body leads; the mind followsSimple tools can create profound shiftsYou don't need to be “fixed” — you need to be supportedClosing ReflectionHealing isn't about arriving at a destination — it's about learning how to meet yourself with awareness, compassion, and trust.As Amy reminds us:“As long as you're in a physical body, healing is part of the journey.”This episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing your power — and begin listening to the wisdom that's been within you all along.

This video uncovers that pain — the chaos, broken trust, abandonment fears, and betrayal wounds that wire the subconscious nervous system to equate love with danger. You'll learn how conditioning forms, why your nervous system responds before you're even conscious of it, and how ancient wisdom + neuroscience come together to create a practical path forward. Most importantly, we walk through a step-by-step exercise to rewire the core wounds Fearful Avoidants carry, and finally stop reliving the emotional past in the present. You'll learn: ✅ The childhood patterns that shape Fearful Avoidant attachment ✅ Why your nervous system reacts before you can think ✅ How conditioning becomes identity — and how to break that link ✅ What ancient traditions teach about non-attachment and self-awareness ✅ Why observing your conditioning changes your relationship to it ✅ A powerful rewiring method to release abandonment, betrayal, and unworthiness ✅ How repetition and emotion reprogram core beliefs stored since childhood Episode Breakdown: 00:00 – The Inner Childhood Pain of the Fearful Avoidant 02:28 – Fearful Avoidants Experience Chaos in Childhood 04:43 – Conditioning Shapes Our Identity 06:48 – Needs Course Promo 04:23 – Express Your Needs Early On 07:14 – Pavlovian Conditioning: Pavlov's Dog  09:42 – How Our Conditioning Can Affect Our Nervous System 13:14 – The Avenues to Healing  15:36 – Non-Attachment and the Observer  19:09 – Ancient Wisdom on Clinging to Our Conditioning  22:16 – Rumi: “Out Beyond Ideas of Wrongdoing and Rightdoing” 23:37 – Transcendence VS Rewiring 25:14 – Belief Reprogramming – Step 1: Write Down Your Wounds and Fears 26:37 – Step 2: Find the Opposite of Your Wound or Fear 27:28 – Step 3: Come Up With 10 Pieces of Evidence Why This New Idea is Possible   28:23 – Your Subconscious Mind Speaks In Emotions and Imagery 31:22 – Record and Listen Back for 21 Days 32:18 – Bowl of Light  Meet the Host Thais Gibson is the founder of The Personal Development School and a world leader in attachment theory.

Dr. Adam Gamwell returns to Trending in Education to explore the evolving collision of anthropology, artificial intelligence, and the human experience. Since his last appearance in 2019, the technological landscape has seen seismic transformations—from the pandemic to the explosion of generative AI. Host Mike Palmer and Adam discuss why the anthropological imagination is more critical than ever for navigating these changes. Adam details his transition from predicting trends to actively building AI tools with his organizations, Anthrocurious and Clueful. He argues that anthropologists must move beyond critique and become makers to ensure human context remains central to technological development. The conversation spans the fragmentation of modern culture, the "Prometheus moment" of AI adoption, and the challenge of maintaining epistemic security in an era of digital exhaust and "AI slop." Mike and Adam also tackle the personal side of the equation: parenting and education. They discuss the atrophy of critical thinking skills, the insights Western parents can learn from Maya and Inuit child-rearing practices, and the importance of designing "socio-petal" technologies that bring people together rather than driving them apart. Key Takeaways: Anthropologists as Builders: Adam emphasizes the need for social scientists to get their hands dirty with code. By moving from pure critique to "vibe coding" and software development, anthropologists can bake human context and ethics into AI tools from the ground up. The Fragmentation of Culture: The internet and algorithmic feeds have fractured the monoculture into isolated microcultures. Understanding this landscape requires using the very tools—AI and large-scale data analysis—that helped create the fragmentation in the first place. Critical Thinking as Muscle Memory: Just as language acquisition changes after age five, critical thinking is a skill that can atrophy without practice. Over-reliance on generative AI in education risks weakening the cognitive muscles students need to evaluate truth and context. Ancient Wisdom for Modern Parenting: Adam and Mike discuss the book Hunt, Gather, Parent and how indigenous practices of patience and autonomy offer a counter-narrative to the high-control, high-anxiety style of Western parenting in a digital age. Why You Should Listen: This episode offers a refreshing departure from the standard "robots will take our jobs" narrative. Instead, it provides a grounded, human-centric framework for understanding how we co-evolve with our tools. Whether you are an educator worried about AI plagiarism, a parent navigating screen time, or a tech enthusiast interested in how "thick data" can improve large language models, Adam's insights bridge the gap between high-level academic theory and the practical realities of daily life.

Dana Micucci redefines danger for the modern lightworker not as external threat, but as the peril of spiritual bypassing and succumbing to fear or lower collective consciousness. Unlike 20th-century internal work, the 21st-century task is active internal mastery to hold and anchor high-frequency light amidst global chaos and intense energy shifts. This internal mastery is crucial for external impact. The Lesson in Mastery: From Seeking to Embodying Truth The memoir, a sequel to Sojourns of the Soul, marks a pivotal shift: the 'lesson in mastery' is moving from seeking truth externally (via sacred travel) to embodying that truth internally. This profound shift is the foundation for applying spiritual wisdom to complex modern life, validating the current memoir as an essential guide for the lightworker journey. Ma'at: Ancient Egyptian Wisdom for the Digital Age Micucci shares the powerful ancient Egyptian principle of Ma'at (truth, balance, and cosmic order), encountered at the sacred temples of Egypt. This ancient wisdom is surprisingly practical for navigating modern issues like misinformation and polarizing technology. Ma'at serves as a vital spiritual compass for filtering digital input by aligning words, thoughts, and actions with truth and balance. Essential Spiritual Tool: Conscious Breathwork For newcomers beginning their spiritual path, the single most essential spiritual tool is conscious, focused breathwork. This simple technique instantly interrupts the fearful, egoic mind, anchors the individual in the present, and connects them to their innate power and grace. The breath is highlighted as the most accessible bridge between mind, body, and spirit. Planetary Transformation: The Challenge and The Opportunity The current period of intense planetary transformation presents two key facets from a lightworker's view: Greatest Challenge: The temptation to disconnect or fall into despair amidst global crises. Greatest Opportunity: The unprecedented acceleration of soul evolution. The current evolutionary waves force humanity to confront shadows, offering a unique chance to rapidly ascend into higher consciousness and co-create the New Earth. Trusting the Higher Guiding Force Micucci shares how a personal test or transformation—a period of loss and uncertainty—revealed that apparent "breakdown" was the higher guiding force clearing old foundations. By embracing deep surrender, she recognized the timely appearance of support as confirmation that this force was conspiring on her behalf. The Final Action Step: Radical Self-Compassion The final, practical action step Micucci hopes readers take after finishing The Years of Living Dangerously is to practice radical self-forgiveness and self-compassion. Choosing to unconditionally love the self and silence the internal critic is deemed the most profound way to 'open their hearts to the evolutionary waves of change' and become a clear channel for light.

How many times have you visited your doctor with a health problem like low back pain but have no idea how or why it happened (and neither does your doctor)?Unfortunately, the world of conventional medicine is set up all too well to treat your symptoms, but never to get the root of the problem.
