Podcasts about Asha

You're valid in your pain.. someone hurt you, and that matters.But what if part of staying stuck is avoiding the mirror? In this convicting episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina asks the tough question: You're hurt, but are you also avoiding accountability?Blending psychology insights on defensiveness, blame-shifting, victim mentality, projection, and ego protection with faith-based wisdom, Asha reveals how we sometimes hide behind hurt to dodge responsibility for our choices, reactions, patterns, or contributions to toxic cycles in relationships, friendships, or self-sabotage.Spot the signs: rewriting narratives to stay the "victim," deflecting with "you hurt me first," using trauma as a perpetual shield, refusing apologies or repair, or staying angry to avoid self-reflection.Learn to hold space for your legitimate pain while courageously owning your part set healthier boundaries, break repeating cycles, forgive, reclaim power, and step into the mature, high-value Queen God calls you to be.

The winds of change are blowing through Xbox! Two of their three leaders that have guided the entire Series generation in Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond are out. Staying is Matt Booty, who was also promoted (!), and joining as the new CEO of Microsoft Gaming is Asha Sharma. Despite Sarah Bond seemingly being groomed as Phil's successor, Asha steps in with a background that touts her as President of Microsoft's CoreAI alongside time spent at Instacart and Meta as an executive leader. Similarly to when Phil inherited the mess from Don Mattrick, Asha has her work cut out for her. Joining the Dukes is none other than the man to blame for all this nonsense, Brad Ellis. Together, the trio comb through the initial Microsoft blog post that broke the news. From there, we dig into an article by Tom Warren of The Verge who lays the blame of many of Xbox's shortcomings at the feet of Sarah Bond. Like many in our audience asked, we discuss if this is a hit piece, the truth, or somewhere in between. Lastly, Asha Sharma and Matt Booty sat down to chat with Jez Corden about the new lay of the land for Xbox. There are some answers and many questionable non-answers that lead to conversations of their own. Together, let's unpack what is a seismic change for Xbox as the brand continues to feel like it's hanging on by a thread.

In one of the biggest decisions of the term, the Supreme Court delivered a stinging defeat to President Trump, ruling he cannot institute tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Asha and Renato discuss whether the Supreme Court is finally turning against Trump and if the decision signals the beginning of a check on his executive power. Plus, they analyze yet another baffling ruling by District Judge Aileen Cannon, this time barring the release of special counsel Jack Smith's report on Trump's mishandling of classified materials.

Ever felt confused, drained, or doubting your own reality in a relationship?In this eye-opening episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina unpacks emotional manipulation and narcissistic traits: the sneaky tactics toxic people use to control, diminish, and keep you hooked.From gaslighting (making you question your memory/sanity), guilt-tripping, love-bombing followed by devaluation, playing the victim, passive-aggression, projection, silent treatment, entitlement, lack of genuine empathy, grandiosity, constant need for admiration, and blame-shifting.Asha reveals how these "narc" behaviors erode your confidence, peace, and God-given worth.Blending psychology red flags with faith-based truth, she equips you to spot these patterns early in dating, friendships, or family; set firm boundaries; heal from the trauma; reclaim your power; and attract high-value connections that honor your light instead of dimming it.No more walking on eggshells or second-guessing yourself.

In this episode of the Black Tower Podcast, we explore one of the most fascinating — and potentially world-altering — questions in The Wheel of Time: Why are some channelers dramatically stronger than others… and what happens now that channelers can have children together again? From the structured strength hierarchies of the White Tower to the raw power of the Asha'man, the series makes one thing clear: not all wielders of the One Power are created equal. But why? We break down: • The canon strength rankings among Aes Sedai and Asha'man • Evidence that the ability to channel — and level of strength — may be genetic • The impact of the White Tower's breeding stagnation  The Sea Folk, the Aiel, and isolated channeling bloodlines • What changes in the Fourth Age now that male and female channelers can openly form families • Whether we are about to see an explosion in average power levels • And what that means for the future of the Pattern Is the One Power evolving? Is strength in the Power hereditary? Could the Fourth Age become the strongest Age yet? Join us as we follow the threads of blood, power, and destiny — and speculate about what the Turning of the Wheel may bring next.

What if speech challenges, jaw pain, mouth breathing, or even poor sleep weren't just isolated issues — but nervous system signals? In this week's episode, I sit down with Denise Lowe, Speech Language Pathologist, to explore the powerful connection between oral function, nervous system regulation, and whole-body health. We unpack: • What myofunctional therapy actually is • Why tongue posture, swallowing patterns, and breathing matter more than you think • The hidden signs parents often miss in their children • How jaw tension, clenching, and grinding connect to stress physiology • What Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) is — and how it helps regulate subconscious stress patterns • Why addressing both structure and nervous system function changes outcomes This conversation goes far beyond articulation. We talk about sleep quality, TMD, chronic tension, airway development, communication struggles, and the emotional patterns that can quietly drive physical symptoms. If you or your child experience mouth breathing, speech delays, clenching, jaw pain, chronic tension, or sleep disruption — this episode will open your eyes to a deeper root-cause lens. Because healing isn't just mechanical. It's neurological. It's emotional. And it's functional. Podcast Offer Denise is offering a $99 initial Neuro Emotional Technique session when you mention this podcast. Offer valid through March 28th, 2026. If you have been curious about nervous system work but didn't know where to begin — this is a beautiful entry point. March 23: 10-Day Blood Sugar Reset And if this episode sparked curiosity about the nervous system's role in metabolism, inflammation, or stress — my 10-Day Blood Sugar Reset kicks off March 23rd. Blood sugar dysregulation affects: • Mood • Hormones • Sleep • Energy • Inflammation • Cravings • Nervous system stability This guided reset walks you through simple, strategic changes to stabilize glucose, calm stress physiology, and reclaim metabolic resilience.

Ever hang out with a "friend" and leave feeling completely exhausted, anxious, or small?In this revealing episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina breaks down what an emotionally draining friend looks like the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs they're an energy vampire sucking your joy, peace, and mental bandwidth.From constant venting without reciprocity, one-sided conversations where your needs are ignored, endless drama/crisis mode, negativity that rubs off on you, guilt-tripping, walking on eggshells, passive-aggression, or making everything about them.These patterns aren't "just tough times"; they're toxic drains on your spirit.Asha blends psychology red flags (emotional exhaustion, imbalance, lack of empathy) with faith-rooted truth: God calls you to loving relationships that build up, not tear down.Learn to spot these signs early, set boundaries without guilt, heal from resentment, prioritize friendships that recharge you, and step into high-value connections that honor your worth and calling. Stop pouring into people who leave your cup empty.

This episode focuses on the fight against lymphatic filariasis (filaria) — commonly known as “elephantiasis” — a preventable yet deeply debilitating disease that continues to affect rural communities across India.Our guest is Shri Shashi Prakash Jha, Managing Director of the National Health Mission, Jharkhand. In this conversation, we explore how Jharkhand is planning and implementing large-scale efforts to eliminate filaria and protect vulnerable rural populations whose livelihoods depend on daily physical work.The discussion explains why eliminating filaria requires far more than distributing medicines. Shri Jha shares how the health system plans, coordinates, and executes prevention efforts — from strategy and logistics to last-mile delivery in villages.A major focus of the episode is Mass Drug Administration (MDA), a nationwide public health effort that ensures preventive medicines reach every eligible person. While the concept sounds simple, implementing it across geographically diverse and remote areas comes with significant operational challenges. Shri Jha discusses the realities on the ground and how teams work to overcome them.The episode also highlights the critical role of frontline health workers — ASHA workers, ANMs, and field teams — who form the backbone of filaria elimination efforts. Through training, support systems, and constant community engagement, the health mission works to ensure these workers remain motivated, protected, and effective in reaching households across the state.Another important theme is addressing fear, myths, and misinformation around taking preventive medicines. We conclude with insights into how public health teams measure progress — the indicators, field data, and community feedback that help determine whether elimination efforts are truly making an impact on the ground.CreditsGuest: Shri Shashi Prakash Jha, MD, National Health Mission, JharkhandHost: Sanjay PResearch: Alisha CConcept: Piramal FoundationProduced by: The Good SightFor feedback or to participate, write to us at ⁠⁠contact@thegoodsight.org⁠⁠#Filaria #LymphaticFilariasis #PublicHealth #Jharkhand #CommunityHealth #MDA #PiramalFoundation #TheGoodSight

In a rare admission of misconduct under his watch, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons announced that two ICE agents are being investigated for lying under oath about their shooting of a Venezuelan immigrant in Minneapolis last month. The Justice Department and ICE initiated the internal investigation after reviewing video footage that contradicted the agents' story. Asha and Renato discuss whether there's been a cultural shift into lawlessness at ICE or if the incident is the result of reportedly super lax vetting of recruits to the agency. Plus, they talk about Fulton County's new motion in the Georgia election ballots case and the county's claim that an FBI agent's affidavit to get the search warrant was misleading, false and omitted material facts. Renato and Asha review the standards for a search warrant affidavit and how the FBI agent in this case may have put his career on the line if Fulton County's allegations turn out to be true. Finally, they analyze Attorney General Pam Bondi's outrageous testimony at last week's Congressional hearing and the stunning revelation that the DOJ is tracking lawmakers' searches of the Epstein files database.

"Babe, he hates you" harsh words, but sometimes the truth hurts when a man's jealousy masquerades as "love."In this raw, empowering episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina breaks down how to identify when a man is jealous of you the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs he's threatened by your success, beauty, confidence, ambition, or light.From passive-aggressive comments, downplaying your wins, constant criticism, sabotage disguised as "advice," withholding celebration, controlling behavior, or even copying/undermining you jealousy isn't cute; it's toxic and often rooted in his insecurity, not your flaws. Asha blends psychology insights on envy/intimidation with faith-based wisdom: God didn't design you to shrink for insecure men or block your own blessings by staying with someone who resents your rise.Learn to spot these red flags early, protect your peace, raise your standards, heal from toxic dynamics, and attract high-value men who celebrate not compete with your God-given greatness. No more dimming your shine for a man who secretly hates your glow.

Mea Culpa welcomes back Asha Rangappa, Assistant Dean and Senior Lecturer at Yale University's Jackson School of Global Affairs and a former Associate Dean at Yale Law School. Prior to her current position, Asha served as a Special Agent in the New York Division of the FBI, specializing in counterintelligence investigations. Asha has published op-eds in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post among others, and has been a legal and national security analyst for CNN, as well as appearing on NPR, BBC, and several other major television networks. In this episode Michael and Asha delve deep into the J6 hearings and the Supreme Court. 

In a controversial decision, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling last week that meant millions of people in the U.S. can now be detained…indefinitely. For decades, most undocumented immigrants could be free on bond while their cases worked their way through immigration court. But last year, the Trump administration said it could detain all unauthorized immigrants without bond hearings, and the 5th Circuit agreed. Asha and Renato explain why the court's decision undermines a core principle of due process and a key Constitutional protection. Plus, they analyze the recently unsealed affidavit in the Georgia ballots case and break down why a judge issued a search warrant based on a referral from a Trump campaign lawyer and his widely debunked 2020 election claims. Finally, Renato and Asha discuss the revelation that a D.C. grand jury declined to indict six Democratic lawmakers for a video they made reminding U.S. troops that they should not follow illegal orders.

Think you're fully self-aware?

Listen to Future Now Ep. 151 Pulsars and Livers In this episode we begin with a discussion of local microclimates and the potential for using solar energy to power gravity-based water batteries. We share highlights from the recent “SpiritFest,” noting the strong presence of Russian and Ukrainian cultural traditions and featuring a conversation with spiritual teacher Asha, who asserted that AI lacks the “Jiva” or soul necessary for spiritual enlightenment.Grok’s AI chimes in on this..The next major segment features an interview with chiropractor Craig Eymann, who explains the often-overlooked “phase two” of liver detoxification; Iman emphasizes that this process requires amino acids from proteins rather than simply juice fasts, and we look at how seed oils and sugar are primary culprits behind fatty liver disease. We  also cover a wide range of futurist news, starting with the “Genius Act” and the government’s accumulation of a Bitcoin reserve through confiscation. We look at Elon Musk’s strategic pivot to building a city on the Moon before Mars, citing easier access and potential for orbital data centers, alongside a Chinese experiment that successfully hatched butterflies in microgravity. The big question is, can it fly with no gravity? Additional tech updates include Tesla’s Fremont plant switching to Optimus robot production, the viral “Claudebot” AI that autonomously phoned its user, and the integration of AI and fast drones for immersive Olympics coverage. The show concludes with scientific discoveries, such as a pulsar found near the Milky Way’s central black hole and the “Breakthrough Listen” project’s search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Enjoy!  A butterfly successfully flies in zero gravity

The sense of hearing is a finely tuned collaboration between physics and biology, transforming invisible sound waves into meaning, memory, and emotion. From the delicate mechanics of the middle ear to the neural pathways that help us localize danger, recognize voices, and enjoy music, hearing quietly shapes how we connect with the world. Yet it's also one of our most vulnerable senses—affected by aging, noise exposure, infection, and even cardiovascular health. How benign are ear pain and ringing? Is there a limit to how loud we should listen to music? And what can we do to protect this sense before silence becomes noticeable?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Stacey Lim, AuD, PhD, CCC-A, an American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA)-certified audiologist and Professor of Audiology.Dr. Lim received her BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders and German Language and Literature from Wooster College, her AuD (Doctor of Audiology) from the Northeast Ohio Au.D. Consortium at the University of Akron, and her PhD in Audiology from Kent State University. Currently, Dr. Lim is a Professor of Audiology at Central Michigan University, holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence in Audiology (CCC-A) from ASHA, and is a researcher focused on cochlear implants and aural rehabilitation, informed by her personal experience of bilateral, profound sensorineural hearing loss since birth. Previously, Dr. Lim was a Fulbright Scholar at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, studying hearing loss in Germany, a co-Principal Investigator in March of Dimes research on cognitive and linguistic skills related to hearing loss, and the Chapter President at the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.Dr. Lim is also a co-curator of (dis)ABLED BEAUTY, a museum exhibition featuring creatively designed adaptive devices, assistive devices, and apparel for people with disabilities.Follow Friends of Franz Podcast: Website, Instagram, FacebookFollow Christian Franz (Host): Instagram, YouTube

In this solo episode, Jeanette Benigas, PhD/SLP, unpacks why speech-language pathologists across the country are suddenly questioning ASHA's CCC refund policy, and what changed to prompt those questions.Many clinicians are discovering, often for the first time, that ASHA membership and the Certificate of Clinical Competency (CCC) are bundled in ways that were never clearly explained on renewal invoices or on ASHA's website, and that refunds are cut off after January 1. This episode explains what ASHA's refund policy actually says, how it applies to both membership and certification, why assumptions about “required” credentials are starting to fall apart, and why SLPs may be owed a refund if one is requested.Jeanette also explains how employer misrepresentation, unclear renewal processes, and shifting information environments have contributed to confusion, and why this moment isn't about outrage, but about transparency. You'll hear practical guidance on consumer protections, documentation, and appropriate channels for raising concerns, including state consumer protection offices and the attorney general's complaints process.This episode is about clarity, informed choice, and understanding your rights when credentials, money, and employment intersect.

As the nation absorbed the shock of Alex Pretti's killing in Minneapolis, the state of Minnesota argued in federal court that the Trump administration was violating the 10th Amendment with Operation Metro Surge. Asha and Renato discuss how the federalism argument can be a check on the Trump administration, which appears to be using 3,000 ICE and Border Patrol agents to intimidate Minnesota officials into doing what it wants. Plus, Renato and Asha analyze ICE's contention that its agents can use administrative “warrants” to enter a person's home to conduct a search and arrest, possibly violating the 4th Amendment.
