Though they didn't win, their journey was anything but ordinary. What did they do in their pursuit of victory? And what ultimately led to their disqualification? Listen in to uncover the answers—and to reflect on how true trust in God isn't just spoken, but lived out in the choices we make.Learn more about Ms. Adventure's Treehouse by joining our ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ or Instagram communities or connect with Charity at ⁠⁠msadventurestreehouse@gmail.com⁠⁠.

My guest is Dr. Christof Koch, PhD, a pioneering researcher on the topic of consciousness, an investigator at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and the chief scientist at the Tiny Blue Dot Foundation. We discuss the neuroscience of consciousness—how it arises in our brain, how it shapes our identity and how we can modify and expand it. Dr. Koch explains how we all experience life through a unique “perception box,” which holds our beliefs, our memories and thus our biases about reality. We discuss how human consciousness is changed by meditation, non-sleep deep rest, psychedelics, dreams and virtual reality. We also discuss neuroplasticity (rewiring the brain), flow states and the ever-changing but also persistent aspect of the “collective consciousness” of humanity.

The conversation explores themes of manifestation, positivity, and the importance of taking risks. Kristin recounts her wedding experiences (destination wedding in Orlando!), her love for Disney, and the challenges she faced in her career transition. The episode emphasizes the power of a positive mindset and the significance of community connections in achieving one's dreams. In this engaging conversation, Kristin shares her inspiring journey to becoming a dolphin trainer at SeaWorld Orlando, detailing the rigorous training process, her passion for animal care, and the importance of pursuing one's dreams. She reflects on the challenges and motivations that drive her, including the support of her husband and the legacy of her mother. The discussion also touches on the significance of life experiences over formal education, memorable Disney moments, and the joy of running a small business. Kristin's story is a testament to the power of following one's passion and the unique experiences that shape our lives. Note: All the opinions and viewpoints Kristin shares are her own. She does not speak for the brand or the company.  Takeaways Kristin's journey began with a childhood dream of being a dolphin trainer. Manifestation plays a crucial role in achieving dreams. Positive mindset can lead to unexpected opportunities. Taking risks can result in significant rewards. Connections made through social media can lead to real-life friendships. Planning and preparation are essential for success. Overcoming challenges requires resilience and determination. The importance of celebrating small victories along the way. Surrounding oneself with positivity can enhance life experiences. Sharing personal stories can inspire others to pursue their dreams.  Animals have distinct personalities and behaviors. Changing careers is possible at any age. The importance of having a strong 'why' behind your actions. Listening and respecting those with more experience is crucial. Husbandry involves voluntary animal care and training. Life experiences can be more valuable than formal education. Chasing dreams keeps life exciting and fulfilling. Memories from childhood trips can shape our perspectives. Running a small business can support your passions.

Jakob shares practical, humane tips for preventing harm—from properly securing recyclables to using safe deterrents instead of cruel methods like glue traps. Tune in to learn how simple changes in how we manage trash and household pests can make the world safer for our furry and feathered neighbors.EPISODE NOTES: Living in Harmony with Wildlife: Simple Steps You Can TakeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

Send us a textThe effects of protein restriction on metabolism, liver hormones, brain, and behavior.Episode Summary: Dr. Christopher Morrison talks about how animals sense and prioritize nutrients like protein, discussing defense mechanisms for essentials such as oxygen, water, sodium, and energy; the brain's role in detecting protein deprivation via signals like FGF21; trade-offs between growth, reproduction, and longevity under protein restriction; and reconciling high-protein diets for satiety and muscle maintenance with low-protein benefits for metabolic health and lifespan extension.About the guest: Christopher Morrison, PhD is a professor and researcher at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he has worked for over 22 years focusing on nutrition, metabolism, and chronic diseases like obesity and diabetes.Discussion Points:The body prioritizes nutrients hierarchically: oxygen and water first, then sodium, energy, and protein, with weaker defenses for carbs or fats.Animals develop specific appetites for deprived nutrients, like salt or protein, often through post-ingestive learning rather than just taste.Protein restriction (e.g., 5% vs. 20% in diets) increases food intake and energy expenditure in mice to maintain protein levels, even at the cost of extra calories.FGF21, a liver hormone, signals protein deprivation to the brain (via NTS region), driving protein-seeking behavior and metabolic changes; it's essential for low-protein responses.Protein restriction extends lifespan in lab animals by suppressing growth signals like IGF-1 and mTOR, but may impair immunity or wound healing in real-world conditions.High protein aids satiety, weight loss, and muscle building, but overconsumption may shorten lifespan; optimal intake depends on age, activity, and goals (e.g., not for pregnant or elderly).No one-size-fits-all for protein: mild restriction may benefit middle-aged sedentary people for health, while athletes need more; balance avoids excesses.Related content:M&M 106: Diet, Macronutrients, Micronutrients, Taste, Whole vs. Processed Food, Obesity & Weight Loss, Comparative Biology of Feeding Behavior | Stephen Simpson & David Raubenheimer*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

It's not always easy to tell if our pets are experiencing pain and discomfort so it's essential for owners to look for clues that our furry friends might be in pain. While acute pain can be obvious... chronic pain can be more subtle.. and we might mistake these changes in behaviour as "getting old" or "slowing down" So what are the signs to look out for?

Animals are going extinct at an alarmingly fast rate, largely due to human activity. Same for plants. This is bad for all kinds of reasons, not least of which is that breakthrough drugs often come from nature. But there isn't consensus on how to save these species. Part of the debate asks the economic question: with limited money going to the work, where will it have the most impact? Today on the show, the cost-effective plan to maximize biodiversity that asks ecologists to approach the question more like economists. Related episodes: The Habitat Banker The echo of the bison Savings birds with economics For sponsor-free episodes of The Indicator from Planet Money, subscribe to Planet Money+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

Animals are such an important part of our emotional, mental, and physical health. They seem to understand our emotions – sometimes even more than we do. And if they can sense our emotions, it shouldn't surprise us to find out that we can communicate with them on an even deeper level.Miranda Alcott is an animal and human communications counselor and she's dedicated her life to facilitating greater understanding between animals and those that care for them. As children, we communicate intuitively with animals. So as adults working on healing our inner child, it's important that we learn to get back in touch with that aspect of ourselves.Morning Microdose is a podcast curated by Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik, the hosts and founders of Almost 30, a global community, brand, and top rated podcast.With curated clips from the Almost 30 podcast, Morning Mircodose will set the tone for your day, so you can feel inspired through thought provoking conversations…all in digestible episodes that are less than 10 minutes.Wake up with Krista and Lindsey, both literally and spiritually, Monday-Friday.If you enjoyed this conversation, listen to the full episode on Spotify here and on Apple here.

Put on your party hat and wet suit because it is Cephalopod Week, Science Friday's annual celebration of all things, octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish. To kick things off, we're bringing you an ode to the octopus arm. You may have heard that octopuses can use their arms to “taste” their surroundings, which they use for finding food. Now, researchers have unlocked a key mechanism in the octopus sensory system. Octopuses use their suckers to detect harmful microbes on the surface of crab shells or even their own eggs.  Host Flora Lichtman talks with molecular biologist Nicholas Bellono about the latest in octopus sensory science. Guest: Dr. Nicholas Bellono is a professor of molecular and cellular biology at Harvard University.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.
