Shutterstock Track 1219389Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAIKia ora.Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz.Today we lead with news the rejection of the Iranian peace proposal by the US has meant diplomatic efforts to resolve the issue have lost momentum and financial markets have downgraded prospects across the board, even though the release of some recent data has generally been positive.First, the very positive August Dallas Fed factory survey has been repeated in September even if not quite at the same level. The last time they had two successive positive reports at this level was in March 2022, and prior to the pandemic recovery, in 2018. If there is a downside in this report it is that cost pressures are rising fast and faster than prices are rising.Fed Governor Lisa Cook said overnight that future productivity gains from AI may not be enough to offset near-term price pressures, warning this trend could drive up US inflation.Meanwhile the US and China are working on a US$30 bln tariff reduction framework, have agreed to establish an AI dialogue, and agreed to Increase flights between the two countries. But all this just seem window-dressing talk at this stage. No actual deals have been agreed. Remember the Beijing meetings in May where large airplane and ag products were announced, neither of which resulted in contracts or trade.China's industrial profits were up +4.2% in August to just over ¥690 bln from the same month in 2025. For the eight months of 2026 they are up +15.7% so this latest period is recording a notable slowing in their growth. But it is still growth. Most observers had expected the growth rate to pick up to +18% so there is a disappointment in this data, and reflected in today's Shanghai equity markets.Singapore's industrial production rose a sharp +15.4% in August from a year ago and driven by a +28% surge in electronics products.India's industrial production rose +8.0% in August from a year earlier, up from an upwardly revised +7.4% in July and well above market expectations.Later today we will be watching the RBA's monetary policy review which is widely expected to deliver a +25 bps hike to 4.6%. Financial markets have priced that change in at a 92% chance. Note, that isn't 100%. But of course most interest will be in how these policymakers see the track from here. Some observers think it will hit 5.35% before the middle of next year before the RBA is done hiking.Before then we should note the release of the 2026 Global Cities Index from Oxford Economics. They say the top city is New York, followed by London, Paris and then Seattle ahead of San Francisco. Sydney came in at #13 (a fall from 7th), Melbourne at #16 (a fall from 6th) and Brisbane at #36 (a fall from 23rd). Auckland was ranked #60, Wellington ranked #75 and Christchurch at #96. No New Zealand rankings changed from last year. The index claims to assess the strengths, weaknesses and future potential of the world's 1,000 largest cities.The UST 10yr yield is now just on 5.24%, up +7 bps from yesterday and a new high since June 2007. The 30 year yield is at 5.55%, up +5 bps and its highest since January 2001.The price of gold is at US$4137/oz and down -US$148 from yesterday. Silver is at just over US$61.50/oz and down -US$3.Oil prices have risen +50 USc from yesterday to just over US$93/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is just under US$106/bbl and up +US$1.50.The Kiwi dollar is unchanged from yesterday, still at 56.7 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +20 bps at 80.8 AUc. Against the euro we are also up +20 bps at just on 49.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 60.4 and up +10 bps yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$83,618 and down -0.9% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just over +/-1.3%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston and we'll do this again tomorrow.Track 1219389Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAI Audio soundtrack opening is licensed from Shutterstock, Track 1219389 Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAI

Happy Mini Golf Day, everybody — apparently that's a thing, and naturally The Rizzuto Show immediately turns it into a debate about whether playing mini golf alone is perfectly acceptable or one of the saddest activities a human being can voluntarily participate in.Rizz says mini golf is a social activity. Lern is ready to hit the windmill alone out of spite. Rafe wants a mini golf caddy who can professionally read the break on the clown nose. And Moon brings the evidence that completely destroys any chance of this conversation remaining normal.During a family mini golf trip in Alabama, Moon encountered a wildly dressed mystery man who showed up alone, appeared to be extremely high and started playing with an enormous multicolored ice cream cone in his hand. Unfortunately, mini golf courses don't provide cup holders for gigantic desserts, so our hero developed a system: set the ice cream directly on the ground, take the shot, pick it back up and continue eating.Concrete? Yep.Wood chips? Absolutely.By the time the man starts feeding ice cream to an ostrich, we've moved beyond mini golf and into a nature documentary that absolutely nobody authorized.That's just the opening act of this comedy podcast, because the crew then tackles one of music's most dangerous arguments: which albums are truly perfect from beginning to end with absolutely no skips?Fleetwood Mac's Rumours. Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction. Green Day's Dookie. Nas' Illmatic. Metallica's Black Album. Alice in Chains' Dirt. Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Michael Jackson's Thriller. Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill. Rage Against the Machine. Weezer's Blue Album. Pearl Jam's Ten. Soundgarden's Superunknown. And plenty more get thrown into the musical Thunderdome while everybody attempts to prove their taste is objectively correct. You know, the healthiest possible way to discuss music.Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with enough entertainment news to give everyone emotional whiplash. The crew gets into concert cancellations, William Shatner fronting a heavy metal project at 95, Gnarls Barkley touring again, Sammy Hagar trying to move beyond being primarily associated with Van Halen, Calvin Harris performing for a ridiculous 1.6 million-person crowd and Kenny Loggins getting married.There are also much heavier stories as the show discusses losses in the music world, troubling news involving Carrot Top and concerns surrounding other public figures. Rafe talks about the darker side of comedy, the “sad clown” reality behind performers and how someone can appear completely fine while dealing with something much more serious underneath.Thankfully, there's some good news mixed in, including Snooki announcing she's cancer-free, before the celebrity train gets moving again with Burt Reynolds stories, George Lucas' massive museum and Spotify's most-streamed artists, songs and podcasts.And then…Florida.Sweet, beautiful, deeply confusing Florida.The show has three stories for another round of “What's Going On in Florida?” and somehow each one makes the previous story seem slightly more reasonable. There are allegations involving a woman and the family dog, a domestic disturbance that leads to an absolutely horrifying family confession, and finally an argument over farting in bed that escalates into a felony assault.At one point, Rizz is forced to acknowledge that maybe Florida really is crazy everywhere — which is inconvenient considering he still wants to move there.But hey, he just wants to live near the water.Apparently the insanity is the waterfront tax.From solo putt-putt and dirt-seasoned ice cream to perfect albums, celebrity news and Florida once again enthusiastically volunteering to provide the weirdest stories of the day, this comedy podcast has everything you need to feel significantly better about whatever questionable decisions you've made lately.Because no matter how weird your morning gets, somebody somewhere is feeding wood-chip-covered ice cream to an ostrich at a mini golf course.And that person is winning.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Word for Today:Proverbs 23:20-21 GNTDon't associate with people who drink too much wine or stuff themselves with food. Drunkards and gluttons will be reduced to poverty. If all you do is eat and sleep, you will soon be wearing rags.Reflection What we put into our bodies doesn't just impact our physical health. It directly affects our productivity, our energy, our relationships, and even our finances. Taking care of your health isn't self-indulgence, it is stewardship.

On this episode of Hot Pursuit, Hannah Elliott and Matt Miller take the Mercedes-Benz G 580 with EQ Technology for a spin and debate whether an electric G-Wagon can live up to the legend. They also look at the growing appetite for big, powerful SUVs and trucks, from the rumored Ford Excursion and GMC Jimmy to Ram’s upcoming Charger, before shifting gears to motorcycles, Goodwood Revival, and Michael Jordan’s Ferrari 550 Maranello.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you actually experiencing joy, or are you mostly experiencing relief when problems finally go away?In Psalm 68, John Ortberg explores the biblical idea of exultation: deep, expressive joy that can exist even when life isn't going perfectly.Drawing from C.S. Lewis and Dallas Willard, John looks at why we can spend our lives clearing one hurdle after another and mistaking the resulting relief for genuine joy.Lewis called the Psalmists' delight an “appetite for God.”So how's your appetite?Maybe we've filled ourselves with so much achievement, entertainment, information, and distraction that there's little room left for something better.Today, try getting hungry again.In this episode: Psalm 68 • joy • relief • C.S. Lewis • Dallas Willard • fasting • appetite for God#Psalm68 #JohnOrtberg #Joy #CSLewis #DallasWillard #SpiritualFormation

Silicon Bites Ep402 | 2026-09-17 | Flares at a Danish Helicopter, Drones over Lithuania and Moldova, Fire on Poland's Doorstep — Putin Has Stopped Deterring Europe and Started Shaping the Future Battlefield. Two flares. No warning. No radio call. One passed within metres of a Danish military helicopter over the Baltic Sea on Monday. A few metres more, and Denmark would be burying aircrew killed by a Russian warship in international waters.Moscow did not apologise. Moscow handed out a medal. On Wednesday, Russia's Defence Ministry announced that Andrei Belousov had awarded the ship's captain the medal "For Courage". The courage in question was firing pyrotechnics at a helicopter on a perfectly legal monitoring mission. It is a pattern, not an isolated incident. It also forces the question Europe keeps dodging.

Stress doesn't just affect your mind, it can shut down your appetite entirely, making it hard to eat enough even when you know you need to. In this episode, we share practical, real-world strategies for maintaining caloric intake during periods of low appetite caused by stress, illness, or major life changes. You'll learn: Why stress reduces appetite and affects digestion How liquid calories can help during low-appetite periods How to adjust macronutrient ratios to support gut health and energy Why meal timing and portion flexibility matter more than rigid schedules How tracking macros helps ensure you're actually meeting your caloric needs How to break the cycle of habitual under-eating during stressful seasons Practical meal prep tips for busy or low-appetite days If eating enough has felt like an uphill battle during stressful or busy periods, this episode offers a compassionate, practical approach to fueling yourself without forcing food or adding pressure.

He is Professor Emeritus at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, a founder and the first chair of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, and a past president of The Obesity Society. He was also the corresponding author on the STEP 1 semaglutide trial published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2021, and sat on the steering committee for SELECT — so he has watched this field from the inside, before and after GLP-1 receptor agonists arrived.The conversation traces what clinicians actually understood about obesity in the 1980s and 90s, Bob's own leptin trial and why it did not deliver, and how reframing obesity as a biological disease led researchers to the gut hormones. From there it moves into the practical territory: how the clinical conversation has shifted from counting calories to diet quality, which side effects are real and which are social media noise, what happens to muscle mass and physical function, how dose escalation should actually work, why hunger returning is not the same as weight regain, and what the evidence says about stopping. Bob is careful throughout to separate what the trials show from what is still unknown, which makes this a useful listen whether you work with clients on these medications or are weighing them up yourself.Key TopicsWhat clinicians believed about obesity three decades ago — excess body fat was known to cause system-wide harm, but the mechanisms, and appetite dysregulation in particular, were not understood, and weight regain after lifestyle intervention was already expectedBob's own leptin trial in the 1990s, published in JAMA, and why leptin turned out to be a useful biological signal rather than a treatment — it defends against weight loss but was never built to stop overeatingThe STEP 1 result and why it changed the field: 15% average weight loss at 68 weeks against a previous benchmark of 6–9%, with a third of participants losing 20%How the clinical conversation shifted from quantity to quality — when the medication does the heavy lifting, the questions become whether someone is eating enough, staying hydrated and getting sufficient protein, rather than how to control cravingsWhich side effects are real and which are overstated: GI effects are the genuine shared profile and can be substantially reduced through diet during dose escalation, while hair thinning and facial fat loss follow large weight loss by any routeMuscle mass, sarcopenia and the groups who need watching, alongside the consistent finding that physical function and quality of life improve in trials — possibly because fatty infiltration of muscle resolvesDose escalation in the real world versus the trial protocol, and why there are still no pretreatment predictors of who will respondWhy appetite drifting back is normal and not a failure — Bob's framing of restored appetite regulation at a lower body weight, with "the amplitude smaller than it was before"Benefits beyond weight loss, including SELECT's 20% reduction in cardiovascular events on top of standard care, plus sleep apnoea, knee osteoarthritis, MASH and psoriasis — driven both by weight loss and by independent mechanismsCost and access, microdosing, extending the interval between injections, and where bariatric surgery still fitsChapters00:00 Introduction05:13 Obesity medicine before GLP-1s13:34 Gut hormones and the STEP 1 result21:00 From calorie counting to diet quality25:00 Side effects and social media myths29:54 Muscle mass, function and exercise35:08 Dose escalation and who responds40:30 When hunger comes back46:37 Stopping the drug, cost and access52:24 Benefits beyond weight loss57:37 Long-term safety and microdosing1:01:10 Coming off, surgery and what's nextGuest / ResourcesDr Robert KushnerProfessor Emeritus, Northwestern University Feinberg School of MedicineFounder and first chair of the American Board of Obesity MedicinePast president of The Obesity SocietyAuthor or editor of 15 books, 56 book chapters and 230 original and review articlesWebsite: drrobertkushner.comBooksSix Factors to Fit: Weight Loss that Works for You! — written for the patientPatient-Centered Weight Management: The Six Factor Professional Program and Toolkit — written for the clinicianTrials and studies discussedSTEP 1 — once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide, New England Journal of Medicine, 2021. 1,961 adults, 68 weeks, ~15% average weight loss.

Wisdom and the AppetitesPreached at The Shepherd's Church on September 13, 2026Your appetites are always preaching. They tell you what will taste good, what you cannot live without, and who you really are. But fallen appetites are liars, and when the belly becomes your god, desire becomes your master. In this sermon from the Anatomy of Wisdom series, Pastor Kendall Lankford exposes five lies our appetites tell and shows how Jesus Christ, the true and better Adam, redeems not only our actions but our desires. Christ gives His people new hungers, teaching us to enjoy God's gifts without becoming enslaved to them.

We were all created with a hunger for more, but what we choose to fill that hunger with matters. In The Hungry, we'll discover what it looks like to develop a deeper appetite for God, recognize the things that leave us spiritually empty, and make room for more of His presence in our lives.

For the first 5 years of Aaron's coaching business he kept a running doc of every question a client ever asked. Hundreds. The single most asked question was a form of: "What actually counts as a training day?" Sounds simple, right up until you have to draw the line. And that line quietly decides whether you run one set of macros or two, and how you feed a surplus, a deficit, and everything in between.The definition we keep coming back to is dead simple: a training day is something you need to recover from. That alone drops a lot of the confusing stuff, big step count days, hikes, a long zone 2 ride, into a gray area, and the call there is about duration and cost, not a hard yes or no. A 30 minute spin is not a training day. A 90 minute zone 2 ride is. From there we run the whole thing through nutritional periodization, because the phase you are in changes the answer. Maintenance, surplus, and deficit each get an argument for splitting your training and non-training day macros, and an argument against.The deficit is where splitting really earns its keep, so that is where most of the episode lives: protecting training intensity as the number one lever for holding onto muscle, pulling food off rest days to hit your target rate of loss, and the psychology of dieting that no spreadsheet ever accounts for. That last part goes deep, from why hard training kills your appetite while rest days leave you bored and food focused, to the counterintuitive move of eating less on training days, to how going bland on purpose and cleaning up your Instagram feed can pull your hunger right back down. We wrap on the constrained energy model and step counts, HIIT versus low intensity cardio, why your wearable's calorie number lies but its trend does not, and the non-bodyweight reasons, stuff like metabolic flexibility and quality of life, that never make the spreadsheet but matter anyway.Covered in this episode:The one definition that cuts through it: a training day is something you need to recover fromWhy needing to recover from something every single day means you are probably doing too muchThe gray area of big step counts, hikes, and long zone 2 ridesWhy a 30 minute zone 2 is not a training day but a 90 minute ride isWhat happens if your expenditure is genuinely too high, and why body weight tells the truthUsing nutritional periodization to decide when to split training and non-training macrosMaintenance: absorbing meals out and protecting insulin sensitivity versus keeping it simpleWhy maintenance is the only phase where letting appetite drive the bus makes senseWhether biasing calories toward training or rest days matters if the weekly total is metSurplus: nutrient partitioning, GLUT4, and intra-workout carbohydrateLoading carbs pre and post workout so 8pm does not become a 100 gram carb problemMonitoring a surplus with photos, performance, and a well-timed DEXAThe build calculus: is the extra muscle from the last six pounds worth dieting it back offDeficit: protecting training intensity as the number one driver of muscle retentionPulling food from non-training days to hit a target rate of loss around 1% per weekBryan's opposite approach: eating less on training days to manage food focusWhy hard training blunts appetite for a couple of hours and rest days do notGoing bland on purpose, and how the Instagram algorithm quietly doubled the hungerThe constrained energy model, step counts, and where movement stops paying offHIIT versus low intensity cardio in a deficit, and why your leg days pay for itNon-bodyweight reasons to split: metabolic flexibility, fat digestion, and quality of lifeHigher carb versus higher fat by phase, and why a deficit favors higher carbWhy a wearable's calorie number is unreliable but its trend is accurate to youConsistent inaccuracy: pick the same food entry every time and let the trend guide youWhy we pull cardio before steps when the rate of loss runs too hotTimestamps:00:00:00 - Intro and updates00:05:00 - The six minute cardio ramp, and why lifting isn't a zone 2 substitute00:09:00 - What actually counts as a training day: recovery as the definition00:10:30 - The gray area: high step days, hikes, and zone 200:13:00 - Nutritional periodization and the maintenance phase00:17:30 - Appetite blunting, rebound hunger, and the weekly average00:22:00 - Surplus: insulin sensitivity and nutrient partitioning around training00:29:00 - Monitoring a surplus: DEXA, and whether six more pounds is worth it00:31:30 - Deficit: the phase where splitting matters most00:34:00 - The psychology of dieting and Bryan's opposite approach00:37:30 - Going bland on purpose: flavor, the algorithm, and hunger00:42:00 - The constrained energy model, steps, and the Pontzer research00:47:00 - HIIT versus low intensity cardio in a deficit00:50:00 - Non-bodyweight reasons: metabolic flexibility and quality of life00:54:00 - Wearables, the trend over the number, and pulling cardio before steps Training hard, but don't look like it?

Eric is a coach, athlete, author and educator, part of the 3DMJ coaching team, co-founder of the MASS research review, and co-director of the Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand (SPRINZ) at AUT, where he is also a senior research fellow. Mikki opens with a personal trainer who was accused of stepping outside her lane for talking about GLP-1s, and the two of them work outwards from there.The conversation covers whether coaches and nutritionists are within their scope supporting people on these medications, what obesity medicine can miss when a patient's weight loss stalls, and why reduced everyday movement belongs under the heading of metabolic adaptation rather than being treated as a separate problem. Eric separates appetite into distinct drivers — energy signalling, hedonic food seeking and food noise — and explains why that distinction matters clinically. The second half turns to protein, where Eric makes the case that it is a minor player for most people's health outcomes unless intake is genuinely low, and that "which macronutrient is most satiating" is the wrong question in the first place. He is candid throughout about the limits of what is currently known, including several things he says he cannot answer. The episode closes on his argument that trainers have an opportunity to stop being weight loss coaches and get back to promoting health, fitness and movement.Key TopicsScope of practice. Eric argues the behavioural, lifestyle, nutrition and exercise side of GLP-1 use is squarely within a personal trainer's remit — while cautioning that nobody yet has the twenty years of practitioner experience we have with medications like exogenous insulin.Where the usual trainer skill set doesn't transfer. Most trainers are practised at helping clients restrain appetite. Clients on GLP-1s often have the opposite problem: struggling to eat enough, and needing nutrient quality raised on a low intake.What a stall actually signals. When someone stops tracking calories and their weight loss plateaus, Eric's first read is not under-fuelling — it is that tracking had become tedious and unsustainable, and no second skill set has replaced it. He treats the stall as an opportunity to build other skills rather than a reason to resume tracking.Movement, NEAT and metabolic adaptation. Reductions in spontaneous physical activity and non-exercise activity thermogenesis come from the same mechanisms as the older, narrower idea of a falling metabolic rate. Eric's view is that most of the "side effects" attributed to these drugs are the side effects of successful weight loss.Appetite is not one thing. Eric separates energy signalling (feeling depleted), hedonic food seeking (actively wanting a particular food or experience) and food noise (constant, distracting preoccupation) — then notes satiety has several definitions of its own on top of that.Why near-universal drug response is interesting. In trials of a newer triple-agonist medication, every participant in the higher dose groups lost at least 5–10% of body weight. Eric speculates — and flags it clearly as speculation — that this implies the drug targets more than food noise alone.How much protein actually matters. Eric's position is that protein is a minor player for general population health outcomes unless someone is starting low. Moving from around 0.8–1.1 g/kg to 1.3–1.5 g/kg has a reasonably moderate effect; moving from 1.6 to 2.2 g/kg is minor outside physique sport, where it is "a game of inches".Meeting people where they are. Someone on an intermittent eating pattern may be reaching only 1.1 g/kg, and a poorly constructed plant-based diet 0.9 g/kg. Telling them to double it can read as an impossible barrier. Mikki describes targeting 1.2 g/kg for GLP-1 clients against the 1.8–2.2 g/kg circulating online.Satiety is a meal question, not a macronutrient question. Food weight and volume, texture, hardness, eating rate, energy density, fibre and fluid all matter, and Eric raises an open question he says he cannot answer: whether those levers become more effective in someone on a GLP-1 once the environmental drivers of overeating are suppressed.What trainers are for. Eric suggests fear of professional redundancy drives some anti-GLP-1 feeling in the industry, argues obesity is primarily a built-environment problem needing a societal-scale solution, and makes the case that trainers should return to promoting health, fitness and movement.Chapters00:00 Introduction03:36 No small talk and no script06:59 Are trainers in their lane on GLP-1s?12:17 Low carb pushback and the naturalistic fallacy14:38 When weight loss stalls21:18 Reduced movement, NEAT and metabolic adaptation24:36 Food noise, hedonic eating and appetite29:36 What personal trainers are actually for32:31 Bodybuilding, diet culture and physical culture38:55 How much protein do we really need?46:36 What actually drives satiety55:57 Where to find EricGuest / ResourcesDr Eric HelmsCoach, athlete, author and educator; a personal trainer since the early 2000s, with a background in the US Air Force and commercial gyms.Part of 3DMJ, coaching drug-free strength and physique competitors.Co-founder of the MASS research review (Monthly Applications in Strength Sport), produced with Dr Eric Trexler, Dr Lauren Colenso-Semple and Dr Michael Zourdos, running since 2017 — massresearchreview.comCo-director of the Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand (SPRINZ) at AUT, and a senior research fellow supervising Masters and PhD students.Instagram: @Helms3DMJCo-host of the Iron Culture podcast.Also mentionedMikkipedia episode 390 — "Living the Bodybuilding Lifestyle with Eric Helms", the previous conversation Mikki refers to: podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/390Docs Who Lift — the podcast from Dr Spencer Nadolsky and Dr Karl Nadolsky, recommended by Eric.Barbell Medicine — Dr Austin Baraki and Dr Jordan Feigenbaum, recommended by Eric for their work on HRT, testosterone replacement therapy and GLP-1 medications.The protein leverage hypothesis — the idea that people keep eating until they reach a protein threshold; Eric notes that threshold sits around 12–13% of energy.The Minnesota semi-starvation study — referenced by Eric as background on the transient, biologically driven effects of dieting.The physical culture movement of the early 1900s, and Bernarr Macfadden as a figure within it.A recent conference abstract indicating people on GLP-1s may be less active than they ...

Episode SummaryThis is a solo Mini Mikkipedia on emotional eating, prompted by a practitioner who asked Mikki how to help a client who describes herself as a lifelong emotional eater — someone who eats when she is stressed, eats when the day has been long and she finally sits down, and has tried everything she has read about without anything sticking. Rather than going straight to coping strategies, Mikki starts by asking whether it is emotional eating at all.The answer she gives is careful. Emotional eating is measured by questionnaires like the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire and the Emotional Eating Scale, but when high scorers are put in a lab under a genuinely induced negative mood, they largely do not eat more than anyone else — and the group that reliably does eat more is restrained eaters, meaning dieters. That does not make emotional eating imaginary: it shows up consistently in clinical binge eating, and phone-based sampling in ordinary life does show boredom, stress and low mood preceding craving. Mikki's position is that someone calling themselves an emotional eater is describing something real but may have the mechanism wrong. A large share of it, she argues, is under-fuelling, chaotic eating and under-sleeping with an emotional trigger sitting on top — so the mechanical causes come first, and only what survives that audit is worth treating as an emotional problem. The second half is practical: regular eating structure, tracking the trigger rather than the food, one if-then plan, affect labelling, and letting a self-limiting urge pass. Useful if you work with clients who use this label about themselves, or you use it about yourself.Key TopicsWhy the emotional eating questionnaires may not measure what they claim — high scorers largely do not eat more than anyone else when negative mood is genuinely induced in a lab, and across a meta-analysis of 56 experimental studies in nearly 3,700 participants the group who reliably ate more were dieters, not self-identified emotional eatersWhere emotional eating does hold up: clinical binge eating, and real-life phone sampling showing boredom, stress and low mood preceding cravingRestraint as a driver — attempted restriction predicting the next loss-of-control episode better than actual restriction did, and why the attempt matters more than the achieved deficitThe mechanical audit to run first: enough food earlier in the day, protein at each meal, satiety signals like volume, speed, texture and flavour, long gaps without eating, and sleepHow sleep restriction raises ghrelin, lowers leptin and shifts brain activity away from the frontal and insular regions towards the amygdala — and why someone on six hours of sleep presents identically to an emotional eater but needs a different interventionThe two patterns worth distinguishing: clock-locked eating that goes sideways between five and ten at night regardless of the day, and situation-locked eating that tracks events insteadWhy a regular eating structure removes the physiological amplifier and makes the emotional signal visibleTracking the trigger rather than the food for two weeks, why most people find their triggers far narrower than they assumed, and why an if-then plan works better when it adds a behaviour than when it removes oneAffect labelling, and urges being self-limiting — rising, peaking and falling within about 10 to 20 minutes whether or not you act on themSelf-criticism after an episode reliably predicting more eating, and self-compassion tested as the alternativeChapters00:00 Introduction and the emotional eating label04:00 Ruling out under-fuelling and sleep06:59 Clock-locked versus situation-locked eating09:52 Building a regular eating structure11:55 Tracking the trigger and if-then plans14:09 Affect labelling and riding out the urge16:27 Self-compassion and when to refer on18:33 Recap and closeQuestionnaires discussedDutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) — van Strien, T., Frijters, J.

What I learned from reading The Mind of Napoleon by Napoleon. Made possible by: Ramp: ⁠⁠https://ramp.com⁠⁠ AppLovin: ⁠⁠https://www.applovin.com Vanta: ⁠⁠https://vanta.com/founders Sage: https://founderspodcast.com/sage Some of my favorite quotes: 0:00 — " The book gives you insight into the mind of a man who combined energy of thought and energy of action to an exceptional degree." 0:30 — "Work is my element. I am born and built for work. I have known the limitations of my legs, I have known the limitations of my eyes; I have never been able to know the limitations of my working capacity." 0:52 — "He knows that men have always been the same, that nothing can change their nature. It is from the past that he will draw his lessons in order to shape the present." 1:33 — "All my life I have sacrificed everything: comfort, self-interest, happiness, to my destiny. Destiny must be fulfilled that is my chief doctrine." 2:33 — "A consecutive series of great actions never is the result of chance and luck; it always is a product of planning and genius. Is it because they are lucky that [great men] become great? No, but being great, they have been able to master luck. What is luck? The ability to exploit accidents: The vulgar would call this luck, but in fact it is the characteristic of genius." 3:30 — "Hesitation is fatal; once an action is begun, it must be followed through with the utmost exertion of the will." 3:44 — "If I have any ambition, it is so natural to me, so innate, so intimately linked with my existence, that it is like the blood that circulates in my veins, like the air that I breathe." 4:14 — "To have lived without glory, without leaving a trace of one's existence, is to have not lived at all." 6:25 — "Without great men, we have only mediocre men, and if there had never been anything but mediocre men, we would still be half apes." 7:20 — "The great majority of men attend to what is necessary only when they feel a need for it-the precise time when it is too late." 7:30 — "True character always pierces through in moments of crisis. There are sleepers whose awakening is terrifying." 9:11 — "Be successful! I judge men only by the results of their actions." 11:15 — "The truth is that everything around us is miracle." 15:18 — "Men of genius are meteors destined to be consumed in lighting up their century." 16:13 —  "A man must know himself. Until then, all endeavors are in vain and all schemes collapse." 17:53 — "All great events hang by a single thread. The clever man takes advantage of everything, neglects nothing that may give him some added opportunity; the less clever man, by neglecting one thing, sometimes misses everything." 18:12 —  "What I am, I owe to strength of will, character, application, and daring." 19:27 — "Imagination rules the world." 20:58 — " History I conquered rather than studied. That is to say, I wanted from it, and retained of it, only what could add to my ideas. I spurned what was of no use, and I seized upon certain conclusions that pleased me." 26:01 — " It is better to eat than be eaten." 26:08 — "Appetite comes with eating."  27:43 — "It may be possible to arrest the surge of progress or to throttle it, but not to destroy it." 29:01 — " I have read your letter. It is utterly worthless. There are too many words and not enough ideas." 31:08 —  "Without talent, without knowledge, there is no equality but the equality of misery and servitude." 33:46 — Napoleon to someone who hasn't studied history: " Speak as little as possible. Your knowledge is too limited, and your education has been too neglected for you to engage freely in discussions." 36:08 — "The corpse of an enemy always smells sweet.” 36:44 — "If you wage war, do it energetically and with severity. This is the only way to make it shorter and consequently less inhuman." 39:30 — ""In war, men are nothing. One man is everything." 40:20 — "Death is nothing, but to live defeated and without glory is to die every day." 46:23 — "Conquest made me what I am. Conquest alone can keep me there." 46:34 — "Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me." 47:13 — "My soul is made of marble. Lightning has found no grip on it and had to slide off of it. I have no fear of becoming their victim. They will be biting into granite."

OverviewIn this episode, we break down the fundamentals of risk management for credit unions — what it really means, why it matters at every asset size, and how boards and executives can build a resilient framework that supports safe, sustainable growth. blog risk appetiteWhat We CoverThe Three Pillars of Risk ManagementRisk Culture — how tone from the top determines effectiveness.Risk Appetite — defining how much risk is acceptable before strategy becomes unsafe.Risk Management System — the controls, processes, and oversight that put culture and appetite into action. blog risk appetiteWhy Size Matters — and Doesn'tPractical guidance for smaller credit unions: clear limits, strong oversight, and effective supervisory committees.What larger credit unions need: formal risk appetite statements, risk departments, and comprehensive reporting frameworks. blog risk appetiteCommon PitfallsThe “capital trap”—why even strong net worth can't compensate for unmanaged concentration risk (e.g., taxi medallion credit unions).Siloed risk decisions.Hoping limit breaches “self-correct.” blog risk appetiteBest Practices for a Strong FrameworkAlign appetite with capital and strategy.Use clear metrics to monitor risk.Establish formal limit-breach processes.Encourage staff to raise risk concerns without hesitation.Maintain strong documentation and communication. blog risk appetiteKey TakeawayRisk management isn't about eliminating risk — it's about managing it in a way that protects members while enabling growth.

Struggling to get someone with dementia to eat even when you're making all their favorite meals? You're not making a mistake with the food. You're likely making the #1 mistake almost every caregiver makes: focusing on nutrition quality instead of the eating experience. In this episode, I'm breaking down why "perfect" nutrition can actually backfire in dementia care, and walking through what actually works instead simplifying food for easier eating, building a calmer mealtime routine, adapting to changing taste preferences, and shifting from forcing food to encouraging it. Whether you're caring for a parent or spouse with dementia, or you're a dietitian working with this population professionally, this episode will change how you think about mealtimes. You'll learn: ✅ The #1 mistake almost everyone makes with dementia nutrition ✅ Why a "perfectly balanced" meal can still fail completely ✅ How finger foods and soft textures reduce mealtime frustration ✅ Simple environment tweaks (plate color, distractions, timing) that make a big difference ✅ Why sweet cravings develop in dementia — and how to work with them, not against them ✅ How to shift from forcing food to encouraging it

Ruby is a multi-award-winning filmmaker, activist and illustrator who wrote and directed the film, and previously worked as a director's assistant on Netflix's The Crown after her acclaimed short The Mermaid & the Artist. Margherita is a British-Italian actor and producer, best known for starring as Simone in Spellbound for ITV and Hulu, and leads as Amanda in the film. The Last Pancake is a magical-realist drama in which Amanda ventures to the titular cafe, awakens her suppressed appetite, and finds herself reunited with her nine-year-old self. The film is independently produced by Ethan McDowell of AnyOther Productions, with support from mental health organisation Voices with Impact, and also stars Lia Williams (The Capture, The Day of the Jackal) as Martha and introduces Luana Souza Rodrigues as Little Amanda.In This Episode:The story behind The Last Pancake and depicting recovery's fear and braveryReconnecting with your inner child in eating disorder recoveryThe neurodivergent overlap with eating disordersThe subtle details in the film that spoke so directly to the eating disorder experienceWhy "shedding" relationships is one of recovery's hardest, least talked about parts in recoveryThe quiet power of simply being there for someone, without needing to fix anythingRedirecting determination and drive from disordered eating into something life-affirmingUsing storytelling to open conversations that are hard to put into words⚠️ Content note: this episode discusses eating disorders, disordered eating, and recovery.

Hunger is the number one reason most people struggle to stay consistent during a Fat Loss Phase. It's not that dieters don't know they need to eat fewer calories. It's that staying in a deficit feels impossibly challenging when hunger and cravings take over. What I want to establish in this episode is that hunger management isn't about willpower or about white-knuckling your way through a diet. It's about understanding the specific principles that determine whether food leaves you satiated or starving, and then building your diet around those principles so the deficit becomes feasible to sustain.In this episode, we go deep on the science of hunger and appetite management and the six strategic principles I use with my clients to make a Fat Loss Phase feel dramatically easier. We cover what hunger actually is and how it differs from appetite, the distinction between homeostatic hunger driven by physiological need and hedonic hunger driven by reward, and the six dietary principles that determine whether your food choices fill you up or leave you fighting hunger throughout the day. Each principle is backed by research and operationally tested across thousands of client transformations.Because once you understand how these principles work and how to apply them, hunger stops being something you have to fight at every meal and starts being something your nutrition is structurally producing for you.HERE'S WHAT WE COVER: WHY HUNGER MANAGEMENT ISN'T ABOUT WILLPOWER OR WHITE-KNUCKLING THROUGH A DIET THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HUNGER, APPETITE, SATIATION, AND SATIETY HOW THE INTERVENTIONS FOR MANAGING WITHIN-MEAL FULLNESS DIFFER FROM BETWEEN-MEAL FULLNESS HOMEOSTATIC VS HEDONIC HUNGER AND HOW TO TELL WHICH ONE YOU'RE EXPERIENCING THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST FOR DISTINGUISHING TRUE HUNGER FROM CRAVINGS WHY HEDONIC HUNGER OVERRIDES YOUR BODY'S TRUE NEEDS IN THE MODERN FOOD ENVIRONMENT PRINCIPLE #1: HOW TO USE ENERGY DENSITY TO EAT MORE FOOD FOR FEWER CALORIES HOW LOWERING THE ENERGY DENSITY OF YOUR DIET REDUCES CALORIE INTAKE BY 223 CALORIES PER DAY PRINCIPLE #2: THE HOLT SATIETY INDEX AND THE FIVE FACTORS THAT MAKE FOOD FILLING WHY BOILED POTATOES ARE 7X MORE FILLING THAN CROISSANTS PER CALORIE PRINCIPLE #3: WHY ANCHORING EVERY MEAL WITH PROTEIN IS THE FOUNDATION OF HUNGER MANAGEMENT THE HORMONAL MECHANISMS BEHIND WHY PROTEIN SUPPRESSES HUNGER AND INCREASES SATIETY THE PROTEIN LEVERAGE THEORY AND HOW IT DRIVES YOUR TOTAL CALORIE INTAKE HOW INCREASING PROTEIN FROM 15% TO 30% OF CALORIES PRODUCES A SPONTANEOUS 441 CALORIE REDUCTION PRINCIPLE #4: WHY FIBER IS THE QUEEN OF FAT LOSS AND HOW IT PRODUCES STRUCTURAL SATIETY HOW INCREASING FIBER BY 28 GRAMS PER DAY CAN SPONTANEOUSLY REDUCE CALORIE INTAKE BY 20% PRINCIPLE #5: MODIFYING FOOD PALATABILITYHOW ULTRA-PROCESSED FOODS DRIVE 508 EXTRA CALORIES PER DAY EVEN WHEN MATCHED FOR EVERYTHING PRINCIPLE #6: HOW ALIGNING MEAL TIMING WITH YOUR CIRCADIAN BIOLOGY MAKES FAT LOSS FEEL EASIER WHY FRONT-LOADING CALORIES EARLIER IN THE DAY PRODUCES LESS HUNGER AT MATCHED CALORIE INTAKEIf you've been white-knuckling your way through fat loss diets, if you've struggled to stay consistent in a deficit because hunger and cravings derail you, or if you've never fully understood the science of appetite management, this episode is going to give you the strategic framework to make staying in a deficit feel dramatically easier.WHERE TO CONNECT WITH ME:Follow Brandon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brandondacruz_/For Info on Brandon's Coaching Services: https://form.jotform.com/bdacruzfitness/coachinginquiryEmail: Bdacruzfitness@gmail.comMy Reading Recommendations:THE MUSCLE & STRENGTH PYRAMIDS https://getdpd.com/cart/hoplink/25469?referrer=1l54og96lf1ccw
