This week we cover the 1991 Disney film - WILD HEARTS CAN'T BE BROKEN. Thrilled by a performance she sees at a fair, Sonora (Gabrielle Anwar) tries to land a spot as a daredevil who rides horses off of high dives. With the help of Al Carver (Michael Schoeffling), whose father runs the show, Sonora works toward her goal. An injury to star rider Marie (Kathleen York) paves her way, and Sonora finds herself on the diving platform. Her life looks complete now that she and Al are in love, but Sonora is about to be thrust into a very trying chapter of her life.SUBSCRIBE TODAY!Visit thecultworthy.comVisit https://www.themoviewire.comVideo: https://www.youtube.com/@back2thebalcony

Rolling up the next few episodes into one, this episode delves into the different neighborhoods, street food, and pastries. As a quick note, I (Nathaniel) realize I'm talking pretty quickly in this episode and apologize! Almost all of the Naples episodes were recorded back to back, so I started speaking quicker and less clearly. In the future, we'll try to come back and re-record these for clarity! However, since Darcy's just returned to town (yay!) we won't have time before they go live. I hope Darcy's part is still enjoyable!

Season 2 of On the Balcony begins by looking sideways — exploring the frameworks that stretch Adaptive Leadership into new terrain.In this first episode, Michael Koehler sits down with Dr. Lisa Lahey, co-author of Immunity to Change, faculty at the Harvard University Graduate School of Education and co-founder of Minds at Work. Lisa's work on adult development has profoundly shaped how we understand leadership — not as a set of skills to acquire, but as an internal capacity to grow.The conversation explores a question many of us wrestle with: Why do we resist the very changes we say we want?Lisa's answer: competing commitments and big assumptions. We're not just resisting change. We're protecting something we care deeply about — even when we don't realize it.This episode gets personal. Lisa coaches Michael through his own immunity to change around pushing his colleagues to use more AI. What emerges is a powerful demonstration of how our internal "immune system" keeps us safe — and stuck.What You'll Explore in This Episode:The shift from socialized to self-authoring mindHow we move from looking outside ourselves for approval to authoring our own values and commitments — and why this developmental shift matters for leadership.The Immunity to Change frameworkA practical, four-column exercise that uncovers the hidden commitments and big assumptions creating resistance to change.A live coaching sessionLisa walks Michael through the process in real time, revealing how deeply protective mechanisms work — and how to begin testing the assumptions that hold us back.How adult development and Adaptive Leadership are relatedBoth frameworks help us face complexity, hold competing commitments, and grow through challenge rather than around it.The influence of Chris ArgyrisHow Argyris's work on organizational learning shaped both Lisa's thinking and the broader field of developmental leadership.The power of the pauseA reflection on pausing not as a luxury, but as an act of deep responsibility to ourselves and the world.Quotes from This Episode:"You can grow your capacity to experience the world in different ways. And that difference keeps enabling you to hold greater complexity, take more perspectives, and handle greater ambiguity."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"There is a next place in development where you no longer are subject to meeting everybody's expectations of you. Instead, you get to be the author of your own expectations — grounded in your own sense of who you are and what you value."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"You have an aspiration to grow. You want to develop some capacity. And yet at the very same time, unbeknownst to you, you've got a whole inner curriculum actively working to protect yourself."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"The immunity to change process invites us to consider: we don't just have worries. We actually have a part of us actively committed to making sure those worries don't come true."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"It is not a luxury to pause. It is an act of deep responsibility to ourselves and the world."— Tara Brach (shared by Dr. Lisa Lahey)Links & Resources:Immunity to Change by Robert Kegan and Lisa Laskow Laheyhttps://www.amazon.com/Immunity-Change-Overcome-Unlock-Organization/dp/1422117367Minds at Work

While Naples is certainly known for its seaside day trips, for those of you who are more interested in a bit of history and delving into the past, the area around Naples has far more than simply Pompeii. From the nearby first Greek city on mainland Italy, Cumae, to the no-longer-ruined palace in Caserta (rivaling that of Versailles), to the tomb of Virgil, this absolute plethora of non-water-centric ruins and castles can make any trip educational and interesting!

So, we've sold you on Naples. Now the question is, where else can you go near Naples, and it's a valid question! Despite Naples' hectic, chaotic, caught-in-time feeling, it's surrounded by a gorgeous sea with a handful of islands and coastlines that cool down any summer trip! As we've mentioned in previous episodes, the farther south you go from Naples (until you hit Calabria, no disrespect) the seaside tends to get less busy and more local, so if you have a few extra days and you'd like to spend the night somewhere, check out the Cilento Coast!

Berthe Morisot and Édouard Manet: Art, Affection, and the Struggle Against Bourgeois Expectations. Sebastian Smee discusses how the Impressionists lived amidst the violence of the 1870 Franco-Prussian War. Berthe Morisot came from the wealthy haute bourgeoisie and, along with her sister Edma, became a serious painter, successfully exhibiting at the Salon. However, women of their background were expected to marry and give up painting. Berthe, still unmarried at 29 in 1869, was devoted to her art when she met Édouard Manet at the Louvre. Manet was captivated by Berthe and invited her to pose for The Balcony. Despite precautions, a mutual flirtation developed, though Manet was married to Suzanne, which stood as an impediment.

Saints are not just people with Vatican-approved miracles. Linda Knieriemen talks about ‘balcony people,' the everyday folks who encourage us to be peace-loving, justice-seeking, love-bestowing humans.

This week we take on George A Romero's MONKEY SHINES! Athlete Allan (Jason Beghe) becomes quadriplegic after a horrific traffic accident. His friend Geoffrey (John Pankow), who is conducting experiments with monkeys, offers Allan a well-trained monkey named Ella to keep him company and raise his spirits. But the initially healthy bond, which even enables Allan to form a romantic relationship with Melanie (Kate McNeil), gradually disintegrates once Ella begins to channel Allan's underlying rage and takes it out on his loved ones.

This might be the biggest question for any tourist to Naples: what can I do there? Well, tons!

STOP Leading Backwards! Transform Your Coaching from the "Dance Floor" to the "Balcony" with Executive Coach Zafer AchiEver feel like you're doing everything right—you've got the technical expertise, the tools, the game plan—but your team still feels disconnected? You're not alone. In this electrifying episode, we dive deep with Zafer Achi, a veteran executive coach and Co-Chair of Cultivating Leadership, who reveals the single biggest mistake most leaders and coaches make: trying to lead others before truly knowing and leading themselves.Zafer breaks down his own powerful journey from being a technically brilliant leader who puzzled his teams ("We don't know who he is") to becoming a master of developmental coaching. This isn't just theory; this is the tactical framework you need to accelerate growth—both for yourself and your athletes/team members.What You'll Discover in This Must-Listen Episode:The "Backward" Leadership Trap: Why focusing on team management and technical fixes before self-awareness leaves your team feeling unheard and generates "scar tissue."Trust vs. Transparency: The crucial difference between sharing everything you know and sharing who you are—and why only one builds deep trust and connection.The Player-Coach Mindset: Learn the game-changing metaphor of the "Balcony and the Dance Floor" (coined by Ron Heifetz) and how to instantly shift from being caught up in the action to observing the dynamics.Free Yourself from Rigid Beliefs: Discover how to identify values and principles you are "subject to" and learn the profound liberation that comes from holding them as options for choice.The 3 Pillars of Self-Awareness: Zafer reveals the simple, daily practices (mirrored by top performance psychologists) that leaders can use to "take the balcony on their inner life."Turbocharge Team Development: Find out why a functional team is actually the ultimate accelerator for individual growth and how to structure collective "Balcony Moments" that metabolize conflict and unlock collective potential.Whether you're a sports coach, a CEO, or a team captain, this conversation is your blueprint for moving beyond the mechanics of leadership to the mastery of human development. Hit play and start leading from the Balcony!

How could we talk about Naples and not about the pastries? After all, this is why you listen to Only A Bag! After a few thousand years of outside rule, one of the few good things (which is a weird way of saying, "Thanks for leaving behind some of your food when you ruled over us with an iron fist.") that came from it is the introduction of pastries. Graffa from the Austrian krapfen, baba from the French (and earlier Polish) baba, and sfogliatella from the nuns of Conci die Marini and then through a pastry chef who purchased the recipe and the rights to sell it (which is far more wholesome!). And, of course, like any other sweet thing over the course of history, someone looked at it and asked the age-old question, "Yes, but can it also be fried?". With that, we introduce you to the wonderful world of Neapolitan pastries!

The Scented Secrets of Time: How to Use the Memory Palace to Master Essential Oil History 101 (w/ Grandpa Bill & Adah)Welcome to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour! In this week's double-feature, my granddaughter Adah and I tackle Essential Oils History 101—but we aren't just reading dates. We are building a powerful new wing in Adah's Mnemonic Memory Palace to make 6,500 years of aromatic history stick forever.The true power of essential oils isn't found in a recent fad; it's rooted in ancient, global healing systems. We track the evolution of aromatic use through four essential stops:The Pharaoh's Roll (4500 BC, Egypt): Our Memory Palace journey begins at the Front Door where we use the Major System code 45 (R-L / Roll). We picture a Pharaoh rolling a giant stone of Lapis Lazuli. This image encodes the earliest ritual and embalming use of essential oils like Frankincense and Myrrh.The Distiller's Toast (10th/11th Century, Avicenna): Next, in the Kitchen, we honor the man who revolutionized oil purity: Avicenna. Our mnemonic shows him toasting (code 10 / D-S) his hands over a fire and tending to a giant Distiller (code 11 / D-T). This is the birthplace of modern distillation!The Chemist's Tip (1928, Gattefossé): Moving to the Study Desk, we encounter René-Maurice Gattefossé (pronounced Gah-teh-foh-say), who coined "aromatherapy" in 1928. To remember the date, we visualize Gattefossé in a panic, tipping (code 19) a beaker of lavender onto a Navy (code 28) uniform. Accident turned to discovery!The Doctor's Roar (WWII, Dr. Valnet): Our final stop on the Balcony brings us to Dr. Valnet. During the 1940s, he successfully used oils to treat wounded soldiers. Valnet is roaring (code 44 / R-R) at a giant Radio (code 44) to share his findings with the world.Whether you're a college student like Adah or a fellow "Silver Streaker" looking to sharpen your cognitive edge, the Magnetic Memory Method works. Tune into the podcast for the deep healing wisdom and watch the YouTube video to see the PAO system brought to life!Listen to the full episode on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour, and watch the visual mnemonic demonstration on YouTube @billholt8792!Why History Matters to Holistic HealthMaster the MemoryEssential oils 101-Our journey begins not with modern labs, but with the cradle of civilization, tracing the use of aromatic materials back nearly 6,500 years.

China has for the first time committed to an absolute target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, by 7 to 10 percent by 2035. We discuss China's growing dominance in the global clean energy transition while the current US administration doubles down on fossil fuels. Also, compared to traditional rooftop solar, “balcony solar” offers renters, apartment dwellers and folks on a tighter budget a much less expensive solar energy starter kit. Balcony solar is already common in Europe and Asia, and now it's getting a boost from state legislation in the US. And members of the late conservationist Jane Goodall's Roots and Shoots youth organization and the Living on Earth crew share memories of her and gratitude for her enduring gifts to the world. --- You can help support our free public radio show and podcast, for free, by leaving a review on Apple Podcasts.
