Andrew Mitchem The Forex Trading Coaches over 16 years old, and we've been providing information for traders right around the world for a long time. And this is video podcast number 600 where I'm in the US with Paul Tillman. So let's talk about the longevity of what we do and the quality of what we offer and how we can help you to trade successfully. Andrew Mitchem Let's get into that a more right now. Andrew Mitchem Hey traders. Andrew here The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 600. Joined by Paul Tillman in the US. Andrew Mitchem I'm joined here in the US in Asheville at Biltmore House with Paul Tillman. Paul Tillman Hey everyone. Glad to see here. 600 episode big milestone. Andrew Mitchem It is indeed. And one of the things that we like to talk about at The Forex Trading Coach is the consistency of what we offer and the longevity of what we offer. How Paul joined TFTC as a client and then coach. Now, Paul, maybe you could just give a bit of an introduction of yourself and how we got to meet each other and work together. Paul Tillman Absolutely. So, Paul Tillman, I live here, in North Carolina, and I joined Andrew as a client just over ten years ago. I tried to find red flags from a previous experience, and Andrew didn't have any, so, I joined in, and after two years, I said, hey, Andrew, I'd love to, help work with you. And, I have that kind of representative of, trading here for the Forex Trading Coach, in the US and, this side of the world. Paul Tillman So, it's been eight and a half years. We've been working together. Andrew came along, and visited here in North Carolina about eight years ago to check things out, make sure everything was legit and good. And, it's been a wonderful, eight years, together. Paul's role at TFTC. Andrew Mitchem And, Paul, your role in the coaching business and helping people. Paul Tillman Sure. So I'm the Director of Coaching here. I help out with, one on one coaching sessions as well as, the webinars. We do a US webinar. Our forum site, our chat room area, daily trade suggestions. Just general coaching help. Trading help. Yes, sort to do a little bit of everything. Andrew Mitchem Nice. And one of the things with the 16 years that we've been running is that we offer consistency not into only what we do as well, but also the strategy. I think that so. The TFTC strategy has never changed. Paul Tillman That's right. Yes. So ever since I came one and sort of history that the strategy hasn't changed. We've added things like a U.S webinar, we added our forum site and chat room area, that real community of traders. But nothing's ever changed. It's not the next shiny object. Or we do something for six months and then we change it. Paul Tillman None of that. It's the same strategy since the very beginning, and that helps with consistency. And you're doing the same thing every time, which look at you consistently profitable or retired. Yeah. Andrew Mitchem And the only other thing, I suppose we have added, because the nature of the market is there are more time frames available now,

Mixerman (Eric Sarafin) is a gold and platinum-selling producer, mixer, engineer, and author whose credits include The Pharcyde, Ben Harper, Spearhead, Lifehouse, Barenaked Ladies, and Foreigner. Known for his no-nonsense approach and razor-sharp insights, Mixerman has spent decades working at the highest levels of the industry—both in iconic L.A. studios and now from his mountain home studio in Asheville, NC. In this episode, Mixerman and I dive deep into the role of the producer—what it really means, how it differs from mixing and engineering, and why musical vision always trumps technical perfection. We talk about his new book, Mixerman's Ultimate GUIDE to PRODUCING Records, Music & Songs, and explore everything from the psychology of studio performance to the pitfalls of overthinking and the dangers of letting the gear drive the session. Whether you're just starting out or you've been producing for years, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom, sharp humor, and hard-won truths. Listen on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Takeaways: Producing ≠ Mixing ≠ Engineering – Mixerman breaks down the distinct roles and responsibilities of a producer, mixer, and engineer, and why blurring the lines can derail a project if you're not careful. The Producer Is the Artist's Advocate – A great producer champions the artist's vision, not their own. It's not about control—it's about making the best possible record with the artist. Don't Be a Gear-Driven Producer – Focusing on tools over results leads to decision paralysis. Gear doesn't make records—people do. Performance Over Perfection – A technically flawless take is worthless if it lacks feel. Great records are built on compelling performances, not clean edits. Producing Is Emotional Management – Producers aren't just sonic decision-makers—they're emotional barometers. Reading the room and managing personalities is part of the gig. Capture the Spark, Then Get Out of the Way – Sometimes the best thing a producer can do is not intervene. Let the magic happen, then shape it later. The Role of Arrangement – Great production often comes down to arrangement: understanding how to leave space, when to add tension, and how to support the song's emotional arc. Don't Chase a Sound—Chase the Song – Trying to copy other artists' sounds can lead you away from authenticity. The song should dictate the production—not trends or references. Learn to Say “That's the Take” – Knowing when a performance is done (even if it's not “perfect”) is part of a producer's superpower. Everything You Need Is Already in the Room – Fancy studios and high-end gear are nice, but great records have been made with far less. What matters is the intention behind the tools.

It's a stunning story about German POWs in the US during WWI and a young woman's search for her missing fiancé in the time between the two wars. We talk about what the times were like, what Sarah would have done if she found herself in the heroine's position, and allow her to brag about her sweet dog. Patrons will hear her opinions on the Rocky Mountains vs. the Appalachians. These Blue Mountains by Sarah Loudin ThomasA moving story of love, betrayal, and the enduring power of hope in the face of darkness.German pianist Hedda Schlagel's world collapsed when her fiancé, Fritz, vanished after being sent to an enemy alien camp in the United States during the Great War. Fifteen years later, in 1932, Hedda is stunned to see Fritz's name in a photograph of an American memorial for German seamen who died near Asheville, North Carolina. Determined to reclaim his body and bring closure to his ailing mother, Hedda travels to the US. Her quest takes a shocking turn when, rather than Fritz's body, his casket contains the remains of a woman who died under mysterious circumstances.Local deputy Garland Jones thought he'd left that dark chapter behind when he helped bury Fritz Meyer's coffin. The unexpected arrival of Hedda, a long-suffering yet captivating woman, forces him to confront how much of the truth he really knows. As they work together to uncover the identity of the woman in the casket and to unravel Fritz's fate, Hedda and Garland grow closer. But with Hedda in the US on borrowed time while Hitler rises to power in Germany, she fears she'll be forced to return home before she can put the ghosts of her past to rest."These Blue Mountains is a masterful tale that weaves together two continents, two wars, and two lives defined by longing and resilience."--PATTI CALLAHAN HENRY, New York Timesbestselling author"North Carolina's mountains hide the secrets of a war long past and a young love cut short in this atmospheric tale of unexpected hope."--LISA WINGATE, New York Times bestselling authorThis inspirational historical fiction is set in the mountains of North Carolina in the tumultuous years before World War II.

Today on Consuming the Craft, I welcomed two of the driving forces behind Green Man Brewing Company: Joe Summers, Managing Director, and Matt Peyton, Director of Brewing. We dove deep into the world of legacy beer styles, the ebb and flow of trends in the craft beer scene, and how Green Man keeps pivoting and thriving even as the industry gets more crowded and competitive. From war stories about hay-infused brews and pumpkin beers arriving way before the harvest, to the real-world logistics of steering a brewery battleship in the wake of ever-shifting consumer preferences, this conversation was packed with insight, laughs, and a couple of surprise bottles (including some soju in a plastic liter bottle). We explored everything from experimental IPAs to the comforting return of classic ESBs and sessionable lagers, not to mention what it will take to bring Asheville's South Slope back to full vibrancy. Joe Summers has nearly two decades of experience in the beverage industry, steering Green Man Brewing through thick and thin as Managing Director. Matt Peyton, whose background is in civil and environmental engineering, has spent almost every waking moment of the last twelve years climbing from delivery driver all the way up to Director of Brewing. Both are passionate advocates for beer brewed with balance, intention, and a healthy respect for tradition—even as they chase after the occasional trend or wacky adjunct. "Brewery is not an F1 car, it's a battleship. And it takes a long time to turn it and move it in a direction." ~Matt Peyton Today on Consuming the Craft:· Trends in the craft beer industry are cyclical; legacy beer styles, such as ESB, IPA, and Porter, are making a comeback as trends shift from fads to classics.· Steering a brewery toward a new trend requires years of planning, from label approval to production schedules; you can't just pivot overnight.· The “haze craze” and IPA experimentation are still very much alive, but there's growing consumer interest in sessionable, lower-ABV beers and clean lagers.· Legacy brands, dependable classics consumers know and trust, help breweries stay resilient when distributors prioritize trendier items like hard seltzers.· Economic uncertainty means more people are reaching for tried-and-true classic beers, rather than taking a chance on expensive new releases.· The Asheville craft scene is recovering after a tough year, and both breweries and locals are eager to welcome back visitors and celebrate a return to normal.· Experimentation isn't dead, surprise tastings during the conversation included a robust Armagnac and a surprisingly smooth (and subtle) Korean soju.· Food, beer, and community remain at the heart of what breweries like Green Man do, whether its chili made with porter or a scotch egg and a pint at Jack the Wood.

In this special Unpacked bonus episode, we're going behind the scenes of our newView From Afar podcast, which spotlights the people and the ideas shaping the future of travel. Afar editors traveled to the floor of IPW, the annual travel conference organized by the U.S. Travel Association to share the best of America with the rest of the world. In this episode, we hear from Afar editorial director Billie Cohen, who conducted interviews over two intense days, covering everything from major cities like New York and Boston to more under-the-radar places like St. Louis and Buffalo. What emerged were fascinating themes about welcoming international travelers, the economic realities of tourism, and how destinations are bouncing back from natural disasters faster than you might think. Billie shares why these conversations left her more excited than ever to explore America—and yes, even try that controversial St. Louis pizza. On this episode you'll learn: Why international visitors make up only 20 percent of NYC tourism but contribute 50 percent of tourism spending How destinations like Asheville and Fort Myers are ready for visitors much sooner after disasters than you'd expect The creative ways cities are spreading tourism benefits beyond traditional hotspots through neighborhood storytelling Why St. Louis might be America's most underrated arts destination (with surprising Monets and opera premieres) Don't miss these moments: [03:58] The economic reality: Buffalo losing 20% of its Canadian visitors this year [05:56] Why disaster-hit destinations need visitors for recovery, not just sympathy [09:26] St. Louis's free cultural offerings that rival DC's Smithsonian museums [12:38] Billie's skeptical New Yorker take on St. Louis pizza and why she's willing to try it anyway [15:00] The delicate balance between promoting neighborhoods and over-touristing them Explore More Head over to View From Afar to hear Billie's full conversations with these destination leaders who are reshaping how we think about American travel: Martha Sheridan, president and CEO of Meet Boston, talks about how this most American of cities is celebrating in 2026. Julie Coker, president and CEO of New York City Tourism and Conventions talks about NYC's plans for its 400th birthday. Tamara Pigott, executive director of Visit Fort Myers, shares how she's transformed southwest Florida into a world-class destination that offers much more than gorgeous beaches. Carolann Ouellette, President of the Maine Office of Tourism, on how the outdoors is essential to the state's economy and its communities. Brad Dean, President and CEO of Explore St. Louis, discusses why he chose the Gateway City over offers from New York and Chicago and how America's heartland is ready for a renaissance. Patrick Kaler, president and CEO of Visit Buffalo Niagara, talks about Buffalo's rich architectural and Black history. Walt Leger, President and CEO of New Orleans & Company talks about the city's vibe and where to go beyond the French Quarter. Helen Hill, executive director of Explore Charleston, talks about the importance of showing a city's true history.

This episode is a very personal story from a workshop I attended 6 weeks ago... During the workshop, I had an experience that broke me open in profound ways that have changed my life for the better. *(Important note below)* And I'm definitely still integrating what happened, but at this point I've spent enough time in integration to feel excited to share the story with you.**IMPORTANT NOTE: What I forgot to mention in the episode was that the experience was so strong for me, I had to spend the rest of that evening back at my AirB&B, going back and forth between laying down on the bed crying with emotional opening/release - and getting up to do intentional movement practice to feel everything fully and integrate. I didn't eat, I didn't distract myself with social media or tech... I just spent the evening & night solo - feeling, integrating and then went to sleep. It felt like the comedown of a profound psychedelic medicine journey... that's the best analogy I can come up with.If you're someone who's interested in personal transformation, and different ways that can happen, I think you'll really enjoy this episode.

In this episode Sid talks to Ashleigh Shanti, who recently won a James Beard Award for her beautiful and thought-provoking cookbook called Our South: Black Food Through My Lens. Ashleigh is the chef and owner of Good Hot Fish, a counter-service spot in Asheville, North Carolina inspired by the spirit of old-school Southern fish camps. Despite her current hometown in the mountains, she's been connected to the coast from the very beginning. She was born in St. Marys, Georgia, just north of the Florida border, while her parents were at a family wedding—and she grew up on a lake in Virginia, where she developed a reverence for the water and a love for fish fries. But her cooking isn't just about seafood. Her passion for all the cuisines of the South—and there are many, as she'll tell you—and her deep interest in Appalachian foodways have shaped the way she cooks, writes, and sees the region.Sid talks to Ashleigh about how a fast-food joint helped her prepare to open a high-volume restaurant, the many women who've inspired her journey, and the secret ingredients behind what sounds like an amazing fried fish sandwich.

This podcast episode is a five-minute excerpt from a longer conversation between Sydney Kale and Heather Sanderson where they came to an "ah-ha" moment of realization and wanted to share it with you! In it they discuss the challenges of conveying experiential knowledge, particularly in fields like plant communication and energy modalities.

See what resonates with you as you listen!About Sydney: Sydney Kale is a Ph.D. student of Wisdom Studies at Ubiquity University, focusing on plant intelligence and phenomenology. Her plant-relationship practice culminates in an exploration of co-authorship with plants in both academic and creative works.

She is the author of The Love Language of Plants, a collection of essays written with plants at her home in Asheville, North Carolina. She also publishes a blog sharing her curiosities about the felt experience of being a human and a plant in a non-academic creative forum.About Heather: Heather Sanderson is a multi-talented writer with a focus on the healing arts. Her Dreaming with the Plants series has twenty-two titles in print, and focuses on spiritual and practical plant medicine for modern times.

In spring 1894, a courtroom became the stage for a scandal that gripped the nation. Kentucky Congressman William Breckinridge faced a lawsuit from Madeline Pollard, who claimed he promised to marry her after nearly ten years together, then broke that promise. The trial exposed a hidden affair, secret meetings, and disputed truths between a rising politician and a woman left behind. The scandal captivated newspapers, packed courtrooms, and reshaped public opinion about one of the South's most prominent figures.
We all know that dreams can galvanize your creativity. Today in this replay of a popular show from almost two years ago, we speak with Donna Glee Williams, PhD, who has published three dream-inspired fantasy novels which seek to reimagine the hero’s journey. Her latest book is called The Night Field. We also play music by Lynn Morgan Rosser. Donna Glee describes her 17 year mentorship with Jeremy Taylor which began as an exploration of an ongoing dream theme of difficulty getting to water. She also speaks of dreams that are gifts for others and shares that she recently wrote a story based on another’s dream. When published it will have the dreamer as co-author. She describes using dreams to inspire creativity by starting with the question, “If you were to do something to honor this dream, what would it be?” She then speaks about how her books embody a new kind of Hero's Journey more appropriate for a post-patriarchal world than the traditional Joseph Campbell formulation, a new paradigm that gets away from individualism and invites co-heroes. After the break we take a call from John of Santa Cruz who describes research showing that people who play music access different portions of their brain than those who don’t. Our engineer and music-creator Rick adds that music is a high-bandwidth form of transmitting nonverbal information. We then take a call from Lynn Rosser of Asheville of North Carolina who has created music to go with Donna Glee’s new novel. We play part of the piece called Bridges. You can find Lynn at LynnMorganRosser.com and on Spotify and other platforms. Donna Glee suggests that listeners go to ko-fi.com/lynnmorganrosser to support her. We then talking about using fantasy to address real-world issues including addressing problems with pesticides which are portrayed, but never explicitly mentioned, in The Night Field which emerged from her work with the Eco Tipping Points Project which can be found at EcoTippingPoints.org. Donna Glee ends by reading the opening paragraphs from her new novel. BIO: When I first met Jeremy Taylor, I was already a writer but—other than my doctoral dissertation—I'd never written in any long form. During my 17 years of dreamwork with him, I wrote three novels seeded by dreams. His fingerprints are particularly bright on my latest, The Night Field.

Jen has been a quiet superfan of David Gate ever since discovering one of his poems on Instagram and instantly texting it to six friends. A British-born poet, writer, and visual artist, David explores themes of care, community, and spiritual resilience. Today, he joins Jen and Amy to talk about his latest work, A Rebellion of Care—a powerful blend of essays and poetry rooted in tenderness, authenticity, and resistance. From writing to flour milling and homesteading, David's life is a living practice of nurturing both self and community with intention. Key highlights from this conversation include: How radical tenderness can be an act of resistance Why are many people living radicalized lives without realizing it, and often for things they don't truly care about How homesteading is a rebellion against modern food practices Reimagining masculinity and what it could look like in a better world Building community and friendship as a vital source of joy and support in life How anger and joy are companion emotions The sacredness of everyday practices Thought-provoking Quotes: “I did not want to have an email job and I did not want to be in meetings that could have been emails. I did not want to be on Slack. I just didn't want that to be what I was spending my time doing. I loved caring for people, and I loved creating and writing, and I got to do that within the church world.” – David Gate “It's just very hard not to be cynical about everything and what I found was that I was cynical because I really, really cared. And, because I really, really cared, everything was just so overwhelming, and the easiest way to deal with that was to shut down and be cynical and be snarky. But, I realized that I had to press through and embrace what was behind that cynicism. so I had to really embrace my own earnestness and my own care in the world and concentrate on what I wanted to build rather than what I wanted to tear down.” – David Gate “It's a constant battle to speak the truth. Even things we all know It can be difficult to say, if it's not something that is normally said, and it's not something that is normally expressed, so you have to fight for that and you have to fight for your experience of the truth. You have to fight for your story. You have to fight for all of that.” – David Gate “I think it's very, very difficult for men to reach for emotional honesty because everything tells you that you're failing if you do that. But it's the most important work right now. And so much of what men are actually looking for in this world, intimacy, a sense of place, a sense of belonging, companionship, adventure, excitement, is on the other side of reaching for that emotional honesty.” – David Gate Resources Mentioned in This Episode: A Rebellion of Care: Poems and Essays by David Gate - https://amzn.to/4jjf87X Good Soil: The Education of an Accidental Farmhand by Jeff Chu - https://amzn.to/3GnS21w Cultivating Belonging and Evolving Faith with Jeff Chu - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-64/cultivating-belonging-and-evolving-faith-with-jeff-chu/ Sarah Bessey - https://www.sarahbessey.com/ Armando Veve, Illustrator - https://www.instagram.com/armandoveve/ Awake: A Memoir by Jen Hatmaker - https://amzn.to/3YHKgpw Sinners film (2025) - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31193180/ Malaprop's Bookstore, Asheville - https://www.malaprops.com/ Guest's Links: Website - https://www.davidgatepoet.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/davidgatepoet/ Substack - https://substack.com/@davidgatepoet Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

NYC's Upper West Siders may be familiar with the 142 year-old, block long, many-storied, red-brick building on Amsterdam Avenue at 103rd Street.Completed in 1883 and designed by Gilded Age architect Robert Morris Hunt – famed for designing the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, N.C. – the base of the Statue of Liberty – the front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art – this building, on Amsterdam and 103rd Street, opened in 1883 as the Association Residence for the Relief of Respectable Aged Indigent Females. In the late 1960s it was set to be torn down. BUT – in time – was saved in great part due to the efforts of two of our guests -- and was resurrected as a major youth hostel inviting visitors from all over the world who want to experience NYC up close and personal.Former Manhattan Borough President and City Council member Ruth Messinger and Bloomington Historial Pam Tice joined us to tell the story of Hunt's building -- a story that encompasses the history of NYC – both its wealth and tendency to provide dignity to its citizens.This BCR program was recorded at 5 Napkin Burger Bar on Broadway and W. 84th St.Alan Winsonbarcrawlradio@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life
Send one way text to Rev Rachel Before Soul Recovery, I didn't even know what my yes or no was—let alone how to honor it. In this episode, we explore the essential role of boundaries in your healing journey. Through the lens of Soul Recovery, boundaries aren't rigid walls—they're living, breathing expressions of self-love. They allow us to protect our energy, express our preferences, and release the need to control others. When we learn to say yes and no with clarity, we create safety in our relationships and peace within ourselves.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, drained, or unsure how to ask for what you need, this conversation is for you. We'll explore the difference between control and true sovereignty, how your boundaries naturally evolve as you heal, and why honoring your needs isn't selfish—it's sacred. Join me on the path to deeper self-awareness, healthier relationships, and a life aligned with your soul.Listen to the Recover Your Soul Bonus Podcast Episode I mention with Lisa Campion on Patreon.Ready to take your Soul Recovery journey deeper?Join Rev.

In 1948, Robert Mallard, a Black World War II veteran, was murdered by a white mob in Toombs County, Georgia. His wife, Amy Mallard, witnessed the attack—and instead of arresting the killers, authorities charged her with his murder.
