The crew are ready for Sunday. What is this teams best attribute, how do you want the game to start and comparisons to the 2001 team.

In this episode of The Future of Fitness, Daniel from Sport Alliance (tech whiz behind their cloud platform) and Erwin (sales powerhouse with 30 years in fitness) break down why fitness operators are scrambling—or should be—with AI hype exploding but data chaos holding everyone back. From Boston's new HQ amid freezing temps, they spill on Sport Alliance sponsoring 2026, ditching legacy systems for a single source of truth, conquering Europe's 11,000+ gyms (50% of big chains), and launching in the massive US market with an open, free marketplace of 150+ integrations that funnels all member data—like payments, body scans, workouts—back to operators for killer upsells, retention forecasts, and autopilot AI by 2030. Forget boiled frog syndrome; they tackle migration fears head-on after 8,000 club switches, urging gym chains (10+ locations) to audit stacks now before competitors lap you on personalized member magic. Keywords: fitness data readiness, AI gym management, Sport Alliance US expansion, open fitness platform, legacy system migration. TAKEAWAYS

Awareness should never come at the cost of your well-being. In this episode, I reflect on current events, the emotional toll of constant exposure to trauma, and the importance of choosing how we engage with difficult moments. We'll also unpack how attitude influences success, why focus creates freedom, and how to keep going after a stumble, without shame or self-abandonment.

Think consumers just don't get supply chain? Think again. Nearly half belong to personas that see its impact – and that awareness is changing how price increases land, how trust holds, and what “value” really means. On this episode, VP, Data & Analytics Cody Stack sits down with Chief Research Officer Kevin O'Marah and Director, Data Science Julia Dahlgren to break down what Zero100 learned from our survey of 14,000 shoppers across seven countries. For leaders still anchored to shelf price alone, this conversation offers a clearer view of what shapes consumer decisions as prices rise – and practical moves to use now.The big question: Can supply chains under pressure keep customer trust?

When we chase Rabbit Holes, we think there has to be more than just the simple Gospel Message and God's truth. So we look beyond the Average Christianity to hopefully find something "BIG", "NEW", "INISHGTFUL", or whatever word we can use.Bible Verses: John 14:1-14; 2 Corinthians 11:3-6; 1 Peter 1:15-16; Micah 6:8; Romans 12:1-2----------------------------------------------------------------Top 100 list at Feedspot: https://podcast.feedspot.com/christian_men_podcasts/E: warriorwithin.christianmanhood@gmail.com|TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pastorwarriorwithinMerch Store: https://wwcm-podcast.printify.me/productsPayPal DONATIONS: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=KC3DTP8HM7DAEYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WarriorWithinMinistriesStudios-----------------------------------------------------Affiliated with Talitha Coffee: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://talitha.com/pastordido⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-----------------------------------------------------Track: Jim Yosef - Samurai [NCS Release] Music provided by NoCopyrightSounds.Watch:Free Download / Stream:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://NCS.io/Samurai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

By leveraging the power of AI, electric utilities nationwide are discovering ways to improve the efficiency and safety of their field crews. For example, the Grid Operations team at Southern California Edison (SCE) launched the AWARE system two years ago to mitigate outages, expedite restoration and improve productivity for the field workforce.  Listen to the narrated version of the October 2025 cover story to learn how the AWARE system monitors the health of the grid and alerts crews to early-stage faults. SCE and Edison International recently won the electric power industry's highest honor: the Edison Award from the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) for the AWARE technology. To read the full article, which went online as "SCE Accelerates Fault Detection with the Power of AI," visit T&D World's website.  If your utility is using technology in an innovative way, we'd love to hear from you.

You leave therapy feeling clear. Validated. Aware. And a few days later, the stress is still there.You understand your patterns. You know why you react the way you do. But your body is still tense. Your nervous system is still on edge. Burnout hasn't lifted.Therapy creates insight - but insight alone doesn't change how you live. The relief comes from what happens between sessions, not just inside them.In this conversation, I explain the two gaps therapy doesn't close on its own: The space between insight and reflection, and the space between knowing and doing.We talk about why awareness without embodiment keeps people stuck, how old patterns like people-pleasing and over-functioning survive even after big realizations, and what it actually looks like to practice change in real life.If therapy has helped you understand yourself, but you're still tired, this episode shows you what's missing - and how to use what you're already learning to create real relief.Work with me:Breakthrough Intensive - You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present.

This hour Henry kicks off the show by explaining why he dislikes the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday, and he's joined in studio by Storyteller Cesar Castillejos (a brown skinned US citizen) to share an interaction that he recently had regarding the current political climate.

In the tabernacle, God built reflection into the rhythm of relationship with Him. As we look at the Bronze Basin, we're invited to slow down, examine what we're carrying, and allow God to shape us through reflection, awareness, and surrender. Prayer becomes a daily practice of paying attention to God and offering every part of ourselves to Him.

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm reminding listeners of the importance of awareness without cynicism. Some people are more interested in what you can do for them than in who you are. Recognizing that doesn't require bitterness, but it does require clarity. This segment encourages healthy boundaries, discernment, and staying kind while remaining aware.

In a rare twist, Jason Goldberg takes the interviewer's seat and turns the conversation toward our dear host, Sebastian Naum Leon — entrepreneur, public speaker, and the inquisitive voice behind the top 3% global podcast Aware with Seb — to explore his personal journey, philosophy, and vision for conscious leadership. Throughout the episode, Seb reflects on integrating spirituality, business, and authenticity, showing how self-awareness, curiosity, and aligned action cultivate not just better leaders, but better humans. He speaks candidly about letting go of judgment, redefining success beyond performance, and building from purpose rather than pressure, offering listeners an intimate look at his values and long-term vision: a world where leadership is rooted in presence, connection, meaning, and joyful impact, and where conscious businesses catalyze a more human, alive way of living.Topics Discussed:Rapid Fire: Seb's Core BeliefsFrom God to Douche: Authentic RelationshipsSeb's Childhood & Family InfluenceEarly Interest in Psychology & EntrepreneurshipFirst Business & Consciousness in BusinessDiscovering & Leading CCLAIntegrating Spirituality and BusinessPractical Steps for Conscious BusinessThe Power of Vulnerability in LeadershipThe Conscious Edge FrameworkAwareness, Alignment, Meaning, and Joy at WorkCreating Meaning in Any JobTV Analogy: Severance & Work-Life SeparationRapid Fire: Vulnerability & SpiritualityImposter Syndrome & AuthenticityDelusion, Self-Belief, and Leadership ArchetypesTrue/False: Self-Awareness, Spiritual Bypass, and Limiting BeliefsSeb's Future: Speaking, Writing, and ImpactVision for a Wonderful WorldConnect with Jason on InstagramConnect with Sebastian on InstagramSebastianNaum.com

Episode 262 How Mistakes Teach LessonsSensers! 2026 is in full swing and we're still cranking out the conversations to spark debate in our minds. So we all make mistakes, but some of us learn from them and then others we take the same test until we pass it. What mistake did you learn the most from? Do you ever get pissed off at something? What method do you use to bring yourself back to a calm state? I've tried a few different techniques but one has stood the test of time for me in the last few years. Let's talk about it….We meet people all the time in our daily lives. We pick up on a few things as we meet these individuals, but what's the first thing that you see when you come across a person? One thing I can share is that energy won't ever lie to you. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Some experiences refuse to stay neatly contained in a single place or moment.In this episode, we hear the story of a man whose first unexplained encounter came before he was old enough to question it — a childhood moment dismissed as a dream, yet never forgotten by his body or his instincts. As he grows older, the strange events don't vanish. They change.From late-night hospital corridors where voices emerge from empty rooms, to a family home that behaves differently depending on who is present, the phenomena seem less interested in spectacle and more interested in timing. In attention. In awareness.What begins as a series of isolated incidents slowly reveals a pattern — one that challenges the idea of hauntings being tied to houses, objects, or tragedy. Instead, this is a story about something patient. Something observant. Something that doesn't need to frighten in order to be present.And when he finally understands what connects all of it… the answer is far more unsettling than a ghost story.#TrueGhostStory #ParanormalExperience #HauntedNotHouse #EntityAttachment #HospitalHaunting #ChildhoodEncounter #RealParanormal #UnexplainedPhenomena #ItNoticedMe #CreepyTrueStories Love real ghost stories?

Learning to Live Like It's True 01/11/26 “If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.”— C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity We don't need more signs, more stuff, or more control—we need to stay connected to Jesus and trust that He truly satisfies because He is more than enough. During those days another large crowd gathered. Since they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said, 2 “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. 3 If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.” 4 His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?” 5 “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied. 6 He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. When he had taken the seven loaves and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people, and they did so. 7 They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them. 8 The people ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 9 About four thousand were present. After he had sent them away, 10 he got into the boat with his disciples and went to the region of Dalmanutha. — Mark 8:1–10 NIV … because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things. — Mark 6:34 NIV “…they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat “ v. 2b “There is a God–shaped vacuum in the heart of each man, which cannot be satisfied by any created thing but only by God the Creator, made known through Jesus Christ.” — Blaise Pascal “I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer.”— Attributed to Jim Carrey (commonly quoted; source uncertain) “Why do I have three Super Bowl rings and still think there's something greater out there for me?… I think, God, there's got to be more than this.”— Tom Brady, 60 Minutes interview, 2005 (CBS News with Steve Kroft) 11 The Pharisees came and began to question Jesus. To test him, they asked him for a sign from heaven. 12 He sighed deeply and said, “Why does this generation ask for a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to it.” 13 Then he left them, got back into the boat and crossed to the other side. — Mark 8:11–13 NIV …without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. — Hebrews 11:6 NIV 14 The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat. 15 “Be careful,” Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod.” 16 They discussed this with one another and said, “It is because we have no bread.” 17 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked them: “Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened? 18 Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don't you remember? 19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?” “Twelve,” they replied. 20 “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?” They answered, “Seven.” 21 He said to them, “Do you still not understand?” — Mark 8:14–21 NIV They all ate and were satisfied… — Mark 6:42 NIV …the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish. — Mark 6:43 NIV The people ate and were satisfied v. 8a …the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over v. 8b We don't need more signs, more stuff, or more control—we need to stay connected to Jesus and trust that He truly satisfies because He is more than enough.

The nectar of life is concentration on Kṛṣṇa, and Kṛṣṇa is present in His name. So you can trust the process: if you give yourself to full focus on the name, then you'll become absorbed and attracted. And it's not difficult. In rajas, the mind says, "I want to go somewhere else. I want to go somewhere else. I want to go somewhere else." And the mind flees to try to find some variety in the material nature. But all varieties come from Kṛṣṇa. Everything is complete in Kṛṣṇa, and if we surrender to that moment in which we just give our mind completely to Kṛṣṇa, then we can be in absorption. We won't even know what time it is or how long we've been chanting. We'll just be aware of one thing, and that is Kṛṣṇa's name in the Mahāmantra. So Kṛṣṇa has kindly appeared to us in this form of the Mahāmantra, and He's given us direct access to Him through this. So, we are reverent and we do the practice—not just chant and think of something else, but chant and only think of the name—and keep bringing our minds back to the name because it will go away. You have to be vigilant to come back to the name and be meditative on the holy name. That's all you have to do. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

In this final episode of 2025, Axel shares eight forward-looking predictions and trends that multifamily investors need to be aware of as we head into 2026.Moving beyond the generic predictions found in major publications, Axel focuses on the data-driven reality of the 2026 market. This isn't about following optimistic forecasts; it's about mapping a strategy based on the actual trends and ground-level shifts we are seeing as 2025 draws to a close.These insights aren't coming from a crystal ball, but from the practical realities we are actively using to shape our own investment strategy for the year ahead.If you're planning acquisitions, dispositions, or operational changes in 2026, this episode provides a practical framework for adjusting expectations and positioning your business accordingly.The 8 Predictions Covered in This Episode#1: Real estate is becoming a highly politicized asset class#2: C-class valuations will struggle to rebound#3: Light value-add becomes the new standard#4: The property management divide will explode#5: The market trades more efficiently (especially for smaller assets)#6: Price beats amenities in B/C class assets#7: The homeownership gap widens#8: Multifamily valuations stay flatThe investors who understand these shifts and position accordingly will be the ones who generate returns in 2026. The ones who keep underwriting (and more importantly, operating assets) like it's 2022-2025 are going to struggle.Are you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?

Two back to back conversations with first time buyers in Japan - the first looking to build an investment property portfolio and wondering what his rights as a landlord are - and the second looking for super-cheap akiya (abandoned/ vacant homes) in the countryside and wondering how one goes about acquiring and managing those.

In this episode of Healthy Mind Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Jacquie Elliott to break down why holiday stress and family dynamics can crank up your inner critic. Fast. Jacquie reframes “self criticism” as abusive brain chatter. A deeper pattern of emotional self-abuse that fuels low self-worth, comparison and people-pleasing. You'll learn her ABCs framework to interrupt the spiral, rebuild self-respect and practice self-love in a practical way through awareness, belief and challenge. About the Guest: Jacquie Elliott is a certified spiritual and relationship coach, seasoned radio host and motivational speaker. She's the author of The Silent Bully: A Journey from Abusive Brain Chatter to Self-Love, and teaches simple tools to shift from “tornado head” into boundaries, presence and a healthier inner relationship. Key Takeaways: Name the inner critic for what it is. Jacquie calls it “abusive brain chatter”. Not just negative thoughts but a pattern that bullies, belittles and gaslights you, especially during holiday pressure and family triggers. Use the ABCs framework in real time. A is Aware: notice the script and write it down. B is Belief: reconnect to a loving inner source through journaling, meditation, prayer or a grounding ritual. C is Challenge: replace old core beliefs like “I'm not enough” with one sentence that is 10% kinder and more true. Watch for “Tornado Head”. That spiral where one mistake becomes a whole identity story. The reset is to return “home” to the present moment and get heart centered before you problem solve. Make self love practical. Start with 2 to 3 minutes of meditation. Journal both voices. List your top values and check alignment. Take small actions that build self respect and reduce shame. Build momentum with micro wins. Random acts of kindness and gratitude can create a dopamine lift that supports consistency, confidence and healthier boundaries. Holiday reminder. You do not need perfect mindset. You need a tool you will actually use when things get loud, tense or triggering.

Today we had the pleasure of welcoming back our good friend Les Csorba, Partner in Charge of the Houston office and a member of the CEO and Board of Directors Practice at Heidrick & Struggles. Les has over 30 years of experience in executive search, leadership consulting, and executive coaching, and he has long been a thoughtful, balanced voice within the energy community. Earlier this fall, he published “Aware: The Power of Seeing Yourself Clearly” (linked here). It's a fascinating exploration of how confronting blind spots, deepening both internal and external self-awareness, and cultivating environments where candid feedback is encouraged can transform leaders and organizations. As always, we appreciate hearing Les's perspective and were thrilled to visit with him. In our conversation, we cover why 2026 will test leaders, with fast-changing macro and geopolitical dynamics putting pressure on executives to lead with clarity, agility, and foresight. We explore how to create cultures where people speak candidly, including giving trusted team members permission to call out blind spots, as well as the difference between chain of command and chain of communication, and the importance of leaders being visible, accessible, and in direct contact with all levels of the organization. Les shares what led him to write “Aware” and the research Heidrick conducted showing that across 75,000 assessments, only ~13% of people demonstrated true self-awareness, inspiring Les to conclude that meaningfully raising that percentage could dramatically enhance organizational performance. We discuss internal versus external awareness, how leaders must treat macro/geopolitical chaos as primary inputs rather than background noise, how AI can boost efficiency but may dull self-awareness, and how to build feedback cultures and measure awareness. Les reflects on the early reception to the book and why self-awareness matters not just for leaders but for teams, boards, and personal relationships, why self-awareness is at historic lows, the importance of hiring and building around weaknesses, and how leaders can optimize and fully leverage their strengths. Les emphasizes the need to get outside of your information bubble, seek diverse perspectives, and cultivate the blend of confidence and humility that characterizes the most effective leaders. We close by discussing what's next for Les, the four forces for energy leaders in 2026 (agility, internal activism, strategic awareness, and foresight vs. forecast), and the most common board weakness, lacking someone who can push back thoughtfully and respectfully. Mike Bradley kicked us off by noting the 10-year bond yield was holding steady (~4.15%) following last week's FOMC meeting. He flagged the dissenting votes for an interest rate cut and suggested the split could foreshadow dynamics under the next Fed Chairman. On the broader equity market front, he observed that markets appear to be losing trading momentum and that 2026 could be a “year of reckoning” for 2025's market leaders (AI/Tech) as investors begin scrutinizing data center spending and associated returns more closely. In the oil market, he highlighted that WTI fell to a four-year low (~$55-bbl) on continued 2026 global oil surplus concerns rather than any specific event. He also noted that at the current 12-month strip ($55/bbl), 2026 upstream budgets, which will be announced in the next 1-2 months, will likely be negatively affected. On the natural gas front, he pointed out that over the past seven trading days, prompt U.S. natural gas price has plunged ~$1.50/MMBtu (to $3.85/MMBtu) due to a warmer short-term winter outlook. On the electricity front, he noted that 2027+ PJM capacity market auction results will be released Wednesday afternoon.

A woman fears her son could be severely traumatised if he finds out the Ministry of Social Development published information about his abuse in state care compensation application online. He's one of five people whose names were visible in an MSD Official Information Act document that was left online for three months.

Your work world is built on endurance, intensity, and mastery. The culture is 'always on,' and you were trained to perform in conditions no one would call normal. The work is supranormal. It sits at the edge of reasonable and regularly exceeds what is sustainable by most standards. High performers like you often find themselves on an above-the-fray pedestal, expected to be tireless and self-sacrificing. Supranormal work can unlock extraordinary performance, but the cost adds up if it goes unchecked. In this episode, we look at where this culture came from, the cortisol spikes that shape your days, the hidden curriculum of self-sacrifice, and the countermeasures that keep you from burning out. It is a straight look at the supranormal experience and what it takes to do this work without losing yourself to it.Awake + Aware | Our 2026 RetreatJoin us at Awake and Aware, our 3-day retreat in Scottsdale, AZ.

Sheriff Chris Swanson strives to live in the moment: On May 30th 2020, when he found himself in the center of a volatile situation, he chose to listen to the people he has sworn to protect, put down his baton, and walk with them by their side. And in doing so, more than a billion people across the world tuned in to see one everyday person change the tide from negative to positive, from what could have been bad to something good.
