In this episode of the High Performance Parenting, Jacquie and Greg Francis tackle one of the most critical topics for today's families: raising kids who know who they are before the world tells them otherwise.From teachers' careless words to the constant noise of social media, children are bombarded with voices that can shape their identity—for better or worse. Jacquie and Greg share personal stories, the importance of intentional parenting, and practical steps parents can take to speak life into their kids and ground them in truth.

This month, we are going to look at seven principles of mental health. The more the mind understands these principles, the more able it is to navigate this world, which is very rarely exactly as it appears to be. Adopting these seven principles will bring us closer to unlocking ultimate mental freedom and understanding our experience of reality. We will be looking at:Self-concept and how it leads to a battle within the mindThe principle of no separation between external reality and self-conceptThe concept of no free will and the subconscious foundation of our behavioursWhat emotional health really means Why relationships are the greatest gift no matter how difficult they areThe true meaning of self-careHow to unleash impersonal individual brillianceResources: Sign Up for The Fundamentals of the Mind Course https://claredimond.simplero.com/page/675960 Learn more about me and my work at https://claredimond.simplero.com/ Find me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/claredimondreal Let's connect on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/clare-dimond-b533007/ Follow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/clare_v_dimond/

This essay explores the creation of my first released music album, Still I Am, and the fictional artist who carries it: Roxy Vale.But before diving into the music, I want to share the creative process and why I approached it this way.The first music album I created was not Still I Am. It was actually Through the Glass Daisy.Through the Glass Daisy is an album pulled directly from the pages of my upcoming series of novels, “Daisy Chain.” It is an album by a band called “Glass Daisy.” It is part of the world creation and lore in the books, which explore many aspects of our reality creation through the experiences of a reluctant time traveler. And yes, the main character is a fan of “Glass Daisy.”Still I Am, however, is an album that is most directly related to the experiences of the “WE” entering and existing in the physical universe. It is a completely different voice from Glass Daisy.Entering as a soul into a physical experience is a journey that's relatable to most souls, especially those who are here to help humanity return to the light.It is this group that I am interested in, the group that is here to assist the people of Earth in stepping back into the light.Yes, you.OK, let's begin with Roxy Vale and Still I Am.One of the issues with the WE viewpoint is that whenever I bring it to the forefront of my awareness, it seems to turn other people's minds and personalities into an unstructured and universally expanded mush (technical term) that sometimes cannot contain even the smallest amount of intellectual clarity. If I solely concentrate on my expression as a singular person, Inelia, all is usually mostly fine. There is mush involved, but at manageable amounts. There really is no difference between the “me” and the WE except at the level of frequency and band of expression, which admittedly is a lot of difference.After creating the first album, Through the Glass Daisy, which is based on the character's journey through time within a complex structure of light/dark as the WE would see it, I thought maybe we could jump through the illusion of singular expression and create songs based directly on the WE writings that would bypass the reader's “mind mush” response and go directly into one of understanding. The WE have a bunch of articles where we express our journey through humanity's temple.I ran the first WE article through a text-processing AI with the instructions to make a song out of it.The first output was a list of possible titles; there were many. I asked, “What would the human collective of Earth want and understand?” The AI, being a gestalt of the human collective's digital expression, is in a very good position to come up with an accurate answer, and it suggested a few items.However, we have to be aware that it scans the internet for answers, and the internet is a light/dark place. Ultimately, although it can come up with possibilities, the answer has to be one we take ourselves.I decided that I would simply tell the AI what paragraph or point in the article I wanted the song to be about, and it was able to come up with several reasonably good songs. Mostly, though, they missed the point, but they did contain the structure of popular songs. I soon realized that for the WE expression, we also needed a particular voice, as song structure is very dependent on genre.As I scanned the human collective for a voice, I realized that I wanted a voice that one day I might be able to express myself in. In other words, a voice that sang in a way I could sing. I had to make some decisions at this point. Looking back at my own life, I saw that the songs I loved and was able to sing with no problem were from Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, and Freddie Mercury.“What would a female singer sound like if Tina Turner and Freddie Mercury had a baby?” I asked the AI.Several hours later, I had a good grasp of what I wanted to express. I did a test run and made Larry listen to it. “I don't understand what it is; it's not rock, or country, or pop… it's confusing,” he said.At that moment I realized that not only did the voice need to express what I wanted, but it needed to be boxed into a genre.That is how Roxy became a Soul Rock singer, with Americana overtones. Unlike Glass Daisy's lead singer, who is 20 years old and clearly an Ethereal Pop singer, I wanted Roxy to be an adult with a very broad range of tones and styles of singing. And thus the character began to evolve. She is not stuck in Soul Rock and will explore other sounds, including Native songs in different areas of the world. She spends a lot of time playing with her voice and expressions.I wanted her as close to my own voice, personality, and story as I could possibly get without breaking the energy of her as the lovechild of Tina and Freddie - two musical heroes of my life. And at the same time, she had more WE expression than she does of my singular expression, Inelia.Her creation has since cascaded into several other artist personas singing in different genres, styles, and voices (both male and female). But those stories and their characters are for a different essay.Back to Roxy.Once I had her voice and proximity to a genre, I pulled all the WE articles through the AI to get different song structures and ideas.The song-creation process is multi-layered. It didn't take long for me to realize that both text-generation AI and music-generation AI have huge limitations at the moment. They are good instruments for a creator but cannot give back what a person wants 100% with prompts. If anything, the more complex the prompt, the more sideways the AI goes. Long and complex prompts confuse the AI.A cycle began: I would teach the text generator AI what the music generator AI would accept. Then I would tell the text AI what I wanted the music one to do, and it would create a prompt as short as possible to express it in AI language. This method lasts about three times before the text generator forgets the parameters of the other AI and has to be “restarted.”The songs I have in mind have a particular key, a key progression, and a definite structure of delivery. Very early in the process I realized that I had to create some of the sounds myself - a phone ringing, a native drum sound, a succession of keys on a violin or piano - all things that the AI could not understand.Still, to me the process of using these two tools - the text generator and the music generator - was like a heavy chain lifted from my neck. I was now free to create music in a frequency and speed that was not limited by people's egos, monetary concerns (sound studios are expensive to use), or limitations on the sounds of my own voice (naturally feminine and melodic).The process of learning is continuous, and the AI slowly learns (then forgets) what I like. The AI engines are being improved continuously, which brings about the possibility of expansion in the future.One thing I did not like about the music generator is that it has a very narrow band of voice sounds, and most of its songs and “artists” sound the same. The other aspect is that after I create a song with a very unique sound, I see the AI using it for other people's creations. I have heard my words and songs revamped in other users' songs even though I have not published any of my songs to be remixed or listened to on the music AI website - a unique voice no longer unique, for example, and some of my lyrics and tunes underlying other people's songs.If I read the user contract, there will probably be a line somewhere that says that the AI can reuse and learn from whatever I create.I had to process my annoyance because, to tell you the truth, my stuff is very high-frequency, and if it is being used by the AI to create music for other people, then that high-frequency is being propagated through the world. Win-win.The rest of the annoyance is all ego. Now my songs and lyrics are no longer unique. Oh dear.OK, I have given you a summary of Roxy Vale's creation, a summary of my work process using AI. With that done, let's go to the meat and potatoes of this essay.With the groundwork set, we can finally explore the heart of the album itself.Let's now talk about the album Still I Am.There is no better way to discuss this album than by looking at the lyrics in each song. I will post three of the eight songs here, and on our podcast Driving To The Rez, you can hear Larry and me going into great detail about them, as well as listening to the songs themselves. If you don't want to wait, you can get the songs at ineliarecords.com.The first song is called “Bananas and Wind”. Bananas and Wind is a funny one because it explains the experience of communicating with the people of Earth. It is a direct reference to how most direct communication between the WE and people ends up talking about bananas. Bananas came in when trying to describe what the conversation looked like from the perspective of the WE.For example, if talking about the planet Mars, the questions would be like “are there bananas on Mars? If so, what color are they? What do they taste like? How big are they?” Or, if talking about the infinite possibilities of timelines, “are bananas the same color in all timelines?” This song also talks about how when asked a question, a full on translation was needed before the WE could understand what was being asked. And even then, the answer might be so far out of the realm of what a person can conceive that further translation was then needed to explore what the WE said. To be clear, the Bananas are humorous metaphors for the things monkey boys and girls find interesting.Here are the lyrics for “Bananas and Wind”:“Bananas and Wind”You ask me questions shaped like treesI answer back in falling leavesWe talk in circles, fields and soundBut somehow always turn around.You speak in warmth, I speak in airYour stories land, but I'm not thereStill I listen, still I tryTo catch the wind beneath your sky.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.I hold the house, the floor, the stoneThe moss that grows, the branch aloneBut when you look, you see your faceReflected back from every place.I don't judge what's high or lowIt's just the way awareness flowsStill I wonder, still I seeHow hard it is to just let be.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.We laugh, we watch, we dance, we fallYour world's so big, your world's so smallI'm here to learn, not to believeI listen more than you perceive.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, still don't know whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.Bananas… and wind…Still singing along…Don't forget, if you are only reading this, on our podcast Driving To The Rez we will discuss the lyrics further and play the music for you to sing along to :)The next song I am going to share with you is about the experience of the WE of finding a physical universe in the endless possibility of existence:“Dot on the Wall”I didn't see it at first - that tiny markHiding quiet in the darkA dot upon a painted wallBut it changed everything, after all.The ocean spoke, the sand repliedThe sky was laughing all the whileAnd you walked where I could seeFor the first time, you noticed me.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be..They took a grain, they took a pieceThought they owned the earth and seasBut we were more than they could holdA thousand stories left untold.We are the waves, we are the stoneWe are together, never aloneOne moment breaks, and there we areThe space between becomes a star.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.Planets spin and oceans talkEvery grain of sand can walkDoors appear and doors dissolveStill we rise, still we evolve.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.First dot on the wall…First step, first call…Now we see…The feeling is very much like that of a sudden dot appearing on a wall that did not have a dot there before. And when you look at it, the dot seemed to have been there since the wall was built.When this happens, we often tell ourselves all sorts of stories about why we had not seen the dot before. But, as it “becomes,” it has always “been.”That is how the physical universe appeared to the WE. One moment it was not there; the next it was - and always had been. Of course, the WE then had to go investigate this dot.The third song of the eight tracks in the album I want to share with you is called “We Are The Sand”“We Are The Sand”We were the sand, golden and wideDancing with oceans, moving with tidesShining and soft, talking for yearsLaughing with water, shedding no tears.We weren't in a hurry, we weren't making plansJust shimmering softly in crystalline bandsMillions of lifetimes beneath the sunWe were the sand, and we were having fun.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.One summer day something landed nearBig, hard, metallic, a little unclearHumans in suits, walking aroundScooping up pieces of sky and ground.They couldn't hear us, they couldn't seeHow much we giggled, how wild we could beThey took us with them, to somewhere newBut we were the sand, and they never knew.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.Multiplicity in every grainOceans whisper and skies explainFeathers and forests, bodies and handsWe are, we are, and we understand.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sandWe were the sand, and we still areCarried by oceans, cradled by starsIn laughter, in silence, in grains so grandWe were the sand… we are the sand…This song explains the experience remembered of the first time the WE (me) encountered human beings. It happens in a time far into what humans might consider the future. As time is simply the interpretation of movements of solidity through space, this experience could be said to have happened in the distant past also. When speaking of solidity, just a reminder here that thoughts, waves, or energy in any form are considered solid by the WE.I hope you enjoy the music, and enjoy our discussion of the meaning behind the lyrics. As a matter of interest, all my created artists are expressing experience and wisdom learned as WE live as Inelia. Many of these experiences are deeply felt by individuals who have gone through the veil to enter into physical life.One of the thoughts that often crosses my mind is how unique we all are on Earth, and yet how the experience of entering a light/dark containment can echo in strikingly similar ways for light-beings everywhere. By recognizing and sharing these echoes, the hold they once had over us dissolves - leaving us with the power to rise, together, into something brighter.In sharing our journeys, we shatter the illusion created by darkness - and together we embody the light.

When you hear the word "achievement," what comes up for you? Do you feel energized and inspired? Or do you instantly feel the pressure to “do more” or “be better”? In this episode, we're diving into the complex relationship many of us have with achievement. We'll explore the ways achievement can be expansive and lead you toward creating the life you want, and the ways overachieving can trap you in a cycle of overworking that doesn't serve you. I share my own journey from earning money as a child to building a business, and how praise for being “capable” and “responsible” wired me to equate achievement with safety for a long time. Once our nervous systems learn that achievement=safety, breaking that pattern can feel uncomfortable, even dangerous. However, when we release the unhelpful patterns we have regarding achievement, we can leverage the concept of achievement in a way that serves us. Changing your relationship to achievement is possible, and it may be the key to transforming your life. Here's the truth: if we pursue our goals while reinforcing internal patterns of spreading ourselves thin and running on a ramped-up nervous system, we may achieve them, but often at the cost of the very things we desired in the first place. The solution is staying grounded within your true goals and creating safety outside of achievement. Today, I'll offer you practical ways to do both.The desire to achieve is a powerful force within us, but I have seen and experienced firsthand what it is like when achievement becomes the primary focus, and the reason why gets lost along the way. I'm so glad you're here to change this pattern with me. Let's get started!What you'll learn:Why praise for being reliable and driven can contribute to an unhealthy relationship with achievementHow my early experiences shaped my relationship with overachievingHow to evaluate your goals and determine when a focus on where you are heading is causing you to miss out on enjoying where you areThe steps to changing your relationship with overachieving–starting with awarenessAn exercise to help you slow down and create a new pattern with how you achieveYou can read the full show notes here.Connect with Molly ClaireMolly's Website: MollyClaire.ComMaster Coach Training 2026 Application Open Have a question or thoughts about the podcast?

Dando continuidade à série especial sobre a amizade, este segundo episódio do podcast filosófico da Nova Acrópole do Brasil propõe uma reflexão profunda sobre esse nobre vínculo humano. Os professores Danilo Gomes e Marcelo Silveira exploram a amizade à luz das obras de grandes pensadores como Platão, Aristóteles, Cícero e Khalil Gibran. Mais do que afinidades circunstanciais ou interesses passageiros, a verdadeira amizade se revela como um caminho de crescimento interior e compartilhado. É por meio dela que os seres humanos podem exercitar a excelência moral – a Arethe – segundo os ensinamentos da tradição filosófica clássica. A conversa aborda aspectos essenciais da amizade, como o cuidado mútuo, a liberdade, a franqueza, a adaptabilidade, e sobretudo, a veracidade consigo mesmo. Os filósofos destacam que somente ao cultivar uma relação genuína com o outro é possível vivenciar os frutos dessa jornada que conduz à virtude, à alegria e à fraternidade. A amizade filosófica, como destacam os autores citados, é alicerçada na busca do bem comum, na possibilidade da advertência construtiva e no compromisso recíproco de se tornar melhor, sempre com generosidade e autenticidade. Participantes: Danilo Gomes e Marcelo Silveira Trilha Sonora: Piano Sonata nº 17 em Ré Menor, Opus 31 – Beethoven

Almost 40% of Earth's land is degraded, meaning that the natural cycles that sustain biodiversity, water, food, and livelihoods are breaking down. This degradation is an ecological crisis, and, it also lies at the root of massive social breakdown, displacement, and conflict. And it's accelerating.In this episode, I speak with Dutch ecologist and entrepreneur Willem Ferwerda, founder of Commonland, one of the leading global initiatives tackling land degradation via large-scale holistic landscape restoration. Their work spans over 20 countries, with projects restoring millions of hectares from South Africa to Spain, Australia to the Netherlands. We get into their unique 4 Returns Framework - a powerful, intuitive model that integrates ecological, social, financial, and inspirational/spiritual returns.We talk about:Communities building long-term visions together across sectorsThe importance of meeting different audiences where they areThe role of storytelling, spirituality, and local leadershipHow restoring land helps restore meaning and purposeAnd how, ultimately, all this work is about regenerating lifeEpisode Website LinkShow links:The 4 Returns Framework in Practice4 Returns Framework Publication4 Returns Framework for Landscape Restoration4 Returns Diagnostic ToolThe Meaning of Laudato Si for a Landscape EthicTowards financing large-scale holistic landscape restoration in EuropeThe Trillion-Dollar Promise Of A Landscape Restoration Industry, ForbesWe must tackle global risks in an integrated way – here's howHow the Ecosystem Approach supports “Cooperation in a Fragmented World"Albania landscape projectLook out for meditations, poems and readings in between episodes.Music: Electric Ethnicity by Igor Dvorkin, Duncan Pittock & Ellie KiddPhoto Credit: Commonland Hosted on Acast.

Without this one thing, every single thing you know and love would disappear. Soil would fail, forests would starve, antibiotics would, well, vanish, and your morning coffee, bread, beer, and even chocolate would be gone. The thing I'm talking about is everywhere. It's probably in your lunch. It's almost certainly in your lungs. It's in your sourdough starter, your compost heap. Got a clue yet? Most people don't actually know what these things are. I'm talking about fungi. Fungi are not plants, not animals, not bacteria — they're something else entirely. And they're really, really old.They're older than dinosaurs, older than sharks — they might even be older than plants, depending on how you define a plant.Today, I'm diving into something I'm actually violently allergic to: fungus. I'm covering everything from what fungi actually are (because it turns out most of us have no idea) to why they might be the most important thing on Earth… ish.In this episode I share: What prokaryotes and eukaryotes areWhat fungi actually areThe different types of fungiHow fungi moved from ocean to land and began a symbiotic relationship with plantsHow fungi can decompose almost anything — including radiationZombie fungus (and whether we should worry)How fungi reproduceWhy they're incredibly usefulSome of the annoying and dangerous things they doHow we might use fungi to help fix the planet.Key quotes:"Fungi are more closely related to us than to plants.""Turns out plants talk way more than you think they do."Sources: Billion-year-old fungal fossils (Nature 2019): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-019-1217-0Armillaria “humongous fungus” 9 km² individual: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-largest-organism-is-fungus/Prototaxites 8 m Silurian-Devonian giant: https://www.science.org/content/article/ancient-giant-fossils-may-be-world-s-oldest-known-terrestrial-fungi90 % of plants with mycorrhizae (Nature Scitable): https://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/an-ecological-and-evolutionary-perspective-on-mycorrhizal-24286790/Mycorrhizal carbon sink 3–7 Gt CO₂ yr⁻¹ (Science 2022): https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abf3457Penicillin discovery background (Nobel Prize): https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/1945/fleming/facts/Statins from Penicillium citrinum (review): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5958453/Cyclosporine discovery story: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7568434/Psilocybin phase-II depression trial (JAMA Psychiatry 2021): https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/2787297Plastic-eating fungus Pestalotiopsis microspora (2011 study): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22269855/ CDC overview of Candida auris drug resistance: https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/Chytrid fungus amphibian decline paper (Science 2006): https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1125069Mycoremediation and mycofiltration review (Biodegradation 2018): https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10532-018-0914-8Find our full podcast via the website here: https://www.nowthatswhaticall.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nowthatswhaticallgreen/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/

In this episode, I sit down with the passionate Alanna Kaivalya to explore the lost — yet ever-present — power of the feminine. While modern women have more freedom than ever to shape our lives and careers, many of us still measure success through a masculine lens, chasing goals and strategies that don't reflect our deepest desires.This conversation is not about rejecting the masculine, but about reclaiming the feminine — the intuitive, connective, and compassionate energy that too often gets sidelined. Alanna, a bestselling author and spiritual teacher, shares insights from her new book The Way of the Satisfied Woman, a powerful guide for anyone seeking an alternative path to fulfillment.Together, we discuss how embracing the feminine can liberate us from burnout, invite greater ease, and reconnect us with what matters most: meaningful relationships, inner peace, and authentic expression.Alanna Kaivalya, PhD is a bestselling author, educator, thought leader, and expert on mythology, spirituality, psychology, and women's empowerment.

Emotional resilience is often misunderstood, mischaracterized, and sadly, overlooked far too often. Understanding emotional resilience (and how to cultivate it in ourselves and others) is a vital skill for coaches. Not only does this help us guide our clients through overcoming challenges, but our ability to be resilient plays a huge role in running our own businesses, managing the inevitable ups and downs that come, and even our very abilities to coach our clients well. In this episode, my conversation with Melanie Fay highlights just how important resilience is, including the implications for you personally and professionally. It's so important in fact, that it is a core element of the Master Coach Training program. During the course of the year-long program, Master Coaches-in-training develop skills, capacity, and the habits of practices that cultivate emotional resilience long term. It's one of my absolute favorite outcomes of the program. In truth, resilience allows us to show up consistently and steadily for our clients. What most people don't talk about is how much the nervous system impacts our resilience (and that of our clients too). Knowing this, and truly understanding it, means solutions for you as a coach. There are many tools to help bring the nervous system into balance. And while resilience is often associated with “toughness” or “bouncing back,” it goes far beyond that. Resilience is deeply tied to self-connection. When we can connect to ourselves enough to be with the circumstances in our lives, developing resilience becomes easier for us and for our clients.Defining resilience and its role in coachingCultivating emotional resilience–in ourselves and in our clients–is so impactful. In order to fully understand its importance, first let's clarify what resilience truly means. In the podcast episode, we talk about two key interpretations:The capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness.The ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape; elasticity.These are both valid perspectives on resilience that speak to two very different places within ourselves. There is no single path to resilience—the most important aspect is helping clients find their own way to cultivate and expand upon it.The first definition, “The capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties,” heavily relates to the nervous system. When we work with our nervous system–our embodied response to outside stimuli–we can stay more level and present. That is a crucial form of resilience. Create space for your clients to be who they areThe second definition of resilience, “the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape,” highlights another essential aspect of coaching. When we create space for our clients to process pain, emotions, and challenges, we give them the ability to get back into alignment with their true selves.Resilience is not about clinging to difficult emotions or denying them; it is about allowing thoughts and feelings to surface without identifying too closely with them. The more distance they have from the circumstances in their lives, the better able we–as highly skilled coaches–are able to create a space of observation and acceptance where the client can see what they need. This allows them to experience the greater clarity and wisdom that will help them bounce back.Self-connection is the foundation of resilienceSelf-connection is a core principle of Master Coach Training.

In this episode, I dive into the concept of becoming "unbotherable" and how Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) can thrive in any environment, no matter what life throws at them. As an HSP, external circumstances—like lack of sleep, stressful situations, or challenging behaviors from others—can easily disrupt our inner peace. However, the key is learning how not to let the outside world control your internal experience.You'll hear about how I've embraced this idea in my own life, especially as a mom balancing totally unpredictable days.

Trauma is a part of life, as the world we're living in continually shows us. Yet we don't have to carry that trauma throughout our life. Welcome to “EmotionAid® –  5 Steps to Reduce Trauma and Deactivate High Emotion”, Episode #139 of Co-creating Peace, a series about conscious communication and conflict transformation. Join me for this enlightening episode as I welcome back Jeffrey Goldstein to discuss the transformative power of EmotionAid®, a set of five practical tools created by the International Trauma Healing Institute in Israel to help manage and de-escalate emotional responses during times of trauma, conflict or high stress.

By regulating the nervous system and our psychological responses with these techniques, we can release the residues of the trauma response and transform that energy into creative and positive outcomes, promoting well-being and peace within ourselves and in our interactions with others.Highlights of our conversation include:Recognizing & honoring our trauma responses for what they areThe importance of discovering where our trauma(s) reside in our body and how to release themThe 5 steps of EmotionAid®The extraordinary value of utilizing the 5th step of EmotionAid® (Resourcing) to fill the spaces that remain when we've released the residues of our trauma(s)Understanding that growth and positive outcomes can result from consciously working through our traumaJeffrey Goldstein SEP lives in Yefe Nof, Jerusalem, Israel.

The scope, scale and timeline of what California is trying to do with CalAIM is truly breathtaking. It's been almost a year-and-a-half since the launch of the program and Dr. Palav Babaria joins us to discuss how it's going and what comes next. Dr. Babaria is a primary care physician who leads quality and population health management for California's Medicaid program - Medi-Cal. We discuss:Which community supports are used most, or least? One of the big learnings from CalAIM: the enhanced care management models that work for adults dont work for childrenHow Medi-Cal is leveraging health plans as the organizers of social care because that's where the members areThe soon-to-be-released population health management service will address two big issues: standardized and equitable approaches to identifying high risk members and integrating state level benefits data, like for WIC Palav reminds us that CalAIM was built through listening:“Not everyone may know this, but CalAIM was generated from a statewide listening tour. Our previous state Medicaid director went around the state and literally asked communities… rooms full of plans, members, providers, what do you need from Medi-Cal that isn't working today? [The] smorgasbord of recommendations is what turned into CalAIM … Listening to the community and responding to the community's needs is in the core DNA of this program.”Relevant LinksListen to our related episode “Reflecting on Year One of CalAIM with Jacey Cooper”CalAIM dashboard Population health management policy guide California and other states require managed care plans to reinvest in local communitiesNY waiver summaryAbout Our GuestDr. Palav Babaria was appointed Chief Quality Officer and Deputy Director of Quality and Population Health Management of the California Department of Health Care Services beginning in March 2021.

232 – Is anything keeping you from doing what God has called you to do?Do you have a strong sense of purpose in your life but it seems things keep getting in the way of you doing what God has called you to do?Or maybe you're still waiting to see what God wants you to do with your life.Sometimes, even when we know what God's will is for our lives, we haven't really pursued it because somehow we're waiting to get permission and approval from someone else.This week's episode is all about not waiting for someone to give you permission to do what God has called you to do.There are lots of people in the Bible who didn't wait for someone else to give them the green light before they jumped in and did what God wanted them to. Here are the folks I talk about this week:David: didn't ask permission to fight Goliath. He just did itJesus: didn't ask permission to preach, teach, heal, and forgive peopleJesus: didn't ask permission to say everything he wanted in the Sermon on the MountThe Disciples: didn't get permission to speak in tongues on the day of PentecostPeter: didn't get permission to preach to the crowd on the day of PentecostPaul: did ask permission to speak to an angry crowd, but didn't ask permission  for what to sayThere are a few exceptions - listen to this episode to find out what they areThe bottom line is: when God calls you to do or say something, you don't need anyone's permission or approval.
