In this opening lecture, Dr Heather Heying invites listeners on an exploration of the deep structures that underlie both scientific inquiry and the human experience of knowing. Moving fluidly between biology, philosophy, and the history of ideas, she challenges inherited beliefs while seeking reconciliation through a broader epistemic lens. Weaving together Darwin's early evolutionary sketches, the concept of universals, and the distinction between biotic and abiotic origins, she explores how evolution shapes everything from molecular structures to symbolic expression, and how the universals of biology illuminate both human uniqueness and our continuity with the rest of life. Along the way, she reclaims the scientific method from dogma, distinguishes between biotic and abiotic origins, and examines the patterns of similarity and difference that reveal descent with modification. Ultimately, this talk is an invitation to see science not as a closed system of answers, but as a living mode of inquiry, attuned to both mystery and discovery.

Send us a textWhat happens when educators pursue advanced degrees? For Dr. Jenifer Jasinski Schneider, it sparked a remarkable journey from classroom teacher to interim dean of the College of Education at the University of South Florida."When you train your brain in research modes and analyze situations from different perspectives, it fundamentally changes how you think," Dr. Schneider explains. This cognitive shift doesn't just make you a better practitioner—it reshapes your entire approach to education. Graduate education also surrounds you with a community of passionate scholars exploring similar questions through multiple lenses. For those considering graduate school, Dr. Schneider offers straightforward advice: "There's never a perfect time—you're never going to have enough money or be at the right place at the right time—so just go for it." The investment transforms not just your practice but your entire self. Approach graduate education as an opportunity for deep personal growth, not just assignments to complete.Applications for a Spring 2026 start in USF graduate programs are due TODAY on Oct. 15.

Most people think the fear of public speaking means you're not cut out for it. But that couldn't be further from the truth. In this episode of The Expert Edge, Colin gets real about one of the most universal fears out there - speaking in front of people. Whether it's a live audience, a Zoom room, or a podcast mic, that nervous energy you feel before sharing your message isn't a flaw - it's a signal. Colin shares personal stories (including a shaky Bible reading in front of his classmates at 13) and practical strategies for turning fear into focus so you can show up with confidence and presence every time you speak. You'll learn: Why focusing on service dissolves fear - and how shifting attention from yourself to your audience instantly builds confidence. How to be truly present - the simple grounding practice Colin uses to stay calm and connected on stage. The one question that rewires your brain mid-panic - transforming anxiety into energy that drives performance instead of derailing it.

Federal Tech Podcast: Listen and learn how successful companies get federal contracts
Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com The impact of AI in software development in the federal government is so pervasive that, in July of 2025, the President of the United States released a White House AI Action Plan. Today, we sat down with Bob Stevens from GitLab to put this development into perspective, examine some use cases, and suggest methods that federal agencies can use to prepare for this technological shift. What precipitated the initiative is the recognition that change is occurring so rapidly in the world of software development that the federal government must adapt more quickly than in the past, or it will be vulnerable to cyberattacks. Stevens notes that the federal government has been targeting modernization, producing software faster, and being more efficient, for a decade. AI will help them get there, with some possible cost reduction. For example, in the past, a vulnerability may have taken weeks to discover. Utilizing AI allows federal software developers to reduce that discovery to minutes. That ties in with one essential element in the White House initiative: security. In fact, one of the pillars of the Action Plan is titled “Promoting Secure-by-Design AI Technologies and Applications.” Stevens has been involved in federal software development for decades and thinks that a platform approach best serves the essential objectives of this Action Plan. The conversation concludes with the potential for AI to streamline government processes and improve operational efficiency.

A natural teacher at heart, Linda is dedicated to sharing the wisdom of homeopathy and flower essence therapy in ways that inspire, enlighten, and empower others. Her path to healing began nearly three decades ago with an encounter with flower essences, sparking a lifelong exploration of human emotion, consciousness, and the transformative power of nature. This journey eventually led her to homeopathy, where a profound personal experience with a single remedy ignited her full commitment to holistic healing. She went on to earn an advanced practitioner diploma from the School of Homeopathy (UK) and has since trained with leading teachers around the world. With a background in education, curriculum design, and leadership, Linda has served as curriculum director and lead faculty at the Prometheus Homeopathic Institute and has taught at the Los Angeles School of Homeopathy and the Veterinary Homeopathy Institute.

What if procrastination isn't the real problem? What if what you see — the delay, the excuses, the inconsistency — is just smoke… and the real fire is underneath? In today's episode, I'm walking you through a real conversation I had with a client in DEFENSE, where we uncovered the truth behind her procrastination — and it wasn't time management. It wasn't planning. It was belief. Identity. A narrow picture of what change had to look like… that she didn't even want to live. We talk about: Why solving surface problems doesn't lead to lasting change How “diet food” and “I don't like exercise” become unconscious blocks What to do when you tell yourself “I'm just not worthy” Why you don't need to be addicted to your comfort zone anymore

Whether it's a podcast, whether it's Instagram, whether it's photography, mean an iPhone is, I the first camera I ever had, my iPhone's 10 times better than that. So anybody can create. It's just learning to tell a story... One is courage to say something that takes some bravery to put things out there that follow your conviction. And then the second thing is just not being overwhelmed. There's so many outlets, whether it's filmmaking, photography, Instagram, I mean, all the way down to future films.

What if the biggest thing holding you back in business isn't your funnel, your offer, or even your strategy …but your brain? In this episode of The Expert Edge, I sit down with Dr. Shannon Irvine - entrepreneur, neuroscientist, coach, and author of the brand-new book The 67 Day Year. Shannon has helped thousands of business owners rewire their thinking so success isn't just possible - it's inevitable. We dive into: Why your brain is wired for safety, not success - and how to flip the switch so growth feels natural instead of threatening. How to identify and break subconscious “brake pedal” beliefs (like “I'm not enough” or “No one will buy this”) that stall your momentum. The priming process elite athletes use to train their brains for performance—and how you can apply it to launches, sales calls, and big stages. Shannon also unpacks her Mind Matrix tool and shares why rewiring your brain is the fastest way to unlock higher income, influence, and impact - without burning out or adding 27 new strategies to your plate. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything “right” and still not getting the results you want, this episode will show you what's really going on under the hood - and how to change it. Grab Shannon's new book The 67 Day Year at 67dayyearbook.com. When you do, you'll get free access to the audiobook and a workbook to help you implement the process step by step.

I called myself a healer, and that alone was enough to trigger people.But judgment isn't new to me.

Christians ought not to drop like other men in the day of trouble. A wicked man's boldness, and a Christian's cowardliness, in times of affliction, are alike ungrounded and uncomely. Why should thy heart, Christian, despond and sink at this rate, upon the prospect of approaching troubles? Are there not safe and comfortable chambers taken up, and provided for thee against that day? Is not the name of the Lord a strong tower, into which thou mayest run and be safe?

We unpack: How niching down (to a “scary specific” audience) allowed Valerie to scale faster and attract higher-quality buyers. Why memberships are one of the most predictable ways to build recurring revenue without burning out creating endless new content. The simple paid ads funnel that pays for itself while warming up buyers for your higher-ticket programs. If you've ever wondered whether you should niche tighter, start a membership, or simplify your business model so it works without you glued to your laptop 24/7, this episode is for you.

Today we're diving into one of the most fundamental tools you'll encounter in clinical practice: the ventilator. Mechanical ventilation can seem intimidating at first, but understanding how it works is essential for keeping your patients safe and for making adjustments in real time. We've invited Richard Wilson, DNAP, CRNA, AANA of Ursuline College to the show to help us understand the fundamentals of mechanical ventilation. He shares insights on how ventilation and oxygenation are key goals in anesthesia, and walks through how understanding the different modes of ventilation—volume control, pressure control, SIMV, and more—can help CRNAs tailor their care. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:
