The critical qualities your horse needs before riding—beyond just standing still. Most horses become stiff and clunky because their bodies are tense and guarded — but what if the key to softness is more in the mind than the body?  In this eye-opening episode, Mark and Jenny reveal how a horse's mind shapes its body—and how you can influence both through simple, mindful groundwork, revealing how a horse's mindset directly influences its movement and softness. Discover how a seemingly stiff Brumby transformed from guarded to more graceful through gentle education and trust. Mark shares real-world examples of horses that change in body shape just by shifting their mental state — no magic, just understanding. We break down the critical link between mind and body, explaining why body work alone can't fix stiffness if the horse's mindset remains guarded or stressed. We also cover the critical skills a horse needs before it's truly safe for a beginner—showing that readiness isn't just about standing quietly or picking up feet, but about confidence, trust, and curiosity. Understanding when a horse is “shut down” versus physically injured can save you from costly mistakes. Train your horse successfully using Mark's detailed training videos: find out more

This is a hefty episode that reviews some of the many, many ways knowing bee biology will directly affect the decisions you have to make as a beekeeper in every season of beekeeping. It's long because it affects nearly everything and this is just a sampling! Beginners: take the details you need and just roll with the stuff that you haven't learned yet, but please note how important learning all that bee life cycle stuff turns out to be! Experienced beekeepers: I hope this will inspire you to emphasize bee biology to your mentees as the framework they can build their beekeeping upon.

She cares for around a dozen hives in a rural Appalachian highland climate. Colonies are managed for bee health with active selection for vigor, genetic diversity and disease resistance, but without chemical treatments for fifteen years. The apiary is self-sustaining (not needing to buy/catch replacement bees since 2010) and produces honey and nucs most every year. 

Episode OverviewIn this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash sits down with Master Casting Instructor Mac Brown for another installment of Casting Angles — a wide-ranging conversation on the philosophy of continuous improvement in fly fishing and fly casting. Recorded just before the Lancaster Fly Fishing Show, the episode centers on one of the most practical yet underappreciated principles in skill development: approaching your craft with a beginner's mind, no matter how many years you've been on the water. Mac draws on feedback from students at recent west coast events — including anglers with 30 to 40 years of experience who received their first structured casting instruction — to illustrate how long-held assumptions can silently ceiling growth. The conversation touches on Mac's "four stages of learning" framework, the infinite circle of knowledge and the parallels between fly casting mastery and elite performance in any discipline. Practical spring fishing news also surfaces in the second half: listeners get actionable intel on early-season Quill Gordon dry fly hatches on wild Appalachian freestone streams, the ideal nymph sizing window as hatches begin (sizes 12–16) and emerging activity of little black stones and blue winged olives on Tennessee tailwaters. Mac and Marvin also preview their respective Lancaster show appearances and detail upcoming guide schools and casting classes at macbrownflyfish.com for anglers planning their spring season.Key TakeawaysHow adopting a beginner's mindset — staying open to new information regardless of experience level — is the single most reliable driver of improvement in fly casting and fishing.Why intermediate anglers stagnate: the false belief that years of time on the water equates to skill development, which shuts down active learning before it can happen.How Mac's four stages of learning framework maps the path from novice to expert, and why most anglers get stuck at stage two.When Quill Gordon dry fly hatches arrive on wild Appalachian freestone streams, they represent one of the season's best dry fly windows because the adult floats for 15–20 minutes while hardening its wings.Why early-season nymphs (sizes 12–14) are as large as they'll be all year, making this the optimal window to fish bigger nymph patterns before successive hatches progressively reduce insect size.How structured instruction — rather than YouTube, books or show demos alone — accelerates skill acquisition in ways self-directed learning rarely can.Techniques & Gear CoveredThe episode is primarily instructional and conceptual rather than gear-heavy, but several practical fishing frameworks emerge. Mac references his own book Casting Angles — a fly casting handbook endorsed by the ACA and FFI — as the source material for the four stages of learning discussion, and directs listeners to the article on his website for a deeper read. The conversation touches on the comparative limitations of self-directed learning via YouTube and books versus structured in-person instruction, particularly for developing proper casting mechanics. On the dry fly fishing side, Mac recommends dry fly presentations targeting Quill Gordons on freestone streams in size 12, with the extended float window (15–20 minutes) making these hatches unusually productive for surface takes. Marvin notes that pairing size 14 and 16 nymphs during this same early-season window takes advantage of the year's largest nymph profiles before they diminish through the season. Mac also promotes two-day casting schools through macbrownflyfish.com as the highest-value instructional investment for anglers who want to advance their skills heading into spring.Locations & SpeciesThe episode references wild freestone streams in the Western North Carolina / Great Smoky Mountains region — Mac's home water around Bryson City — as the primary context for the early Quill Gordon hatch discussion, with these streams producing active trout as water temperatures begin to rise. Tennessee tailwaters are also noted as waters where little black stoneflies and blue winged olives are already appearing, signaling the beginning of productive surface-feeding windows. The target species throughout is wild trout, with Mac's commentary on Quill Gordon hatches specifically framed around waking large fish that have been dormant through winter. The seasonal framing is early spring, a transition period characterized by warming daytime temperatures, emerging hatches and increasingly active trout — one of the most productive dry fly windows of the year in the Southern Appalachians.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredHow does a beginner's mindset improve fly casting and fishing skills?Beginners enter instruction with no preconceptions to dismantle, which makes them highly receptive to new technique and feedback. Mac argues that anglers who believe they are already proficient — after years of fishing without formal instruction — unknowingly stop absorbing new information, effectively stalling their development at the intermediate stage.What are the four stages of learning in fly casting?Mac's framework progresses from stage one (open absorption of fundamentals) through stage two (recognizing a problem exists but not knowing how to fix it — where most intermediate anglers stall) to stages three and four, where skills become internalized and self-correcting. He recommends reading the full article on his website for a detailed breakdown of each stage.When is the Quill Gordon hatch and why is it such a good dry fly opportunity?The Quill Gordon is an early-season mayfly that emerges on wild Appalachian freestone streams, typically before most other major hatches of the year. The adults float on the surface for 15–20 minutes while hardening their wings — an unusually long window that gives trout ample time to key on them and gives anglers sustained dry fly fishing action. Size 12 patterns are appropriate at peak emergence.Why should anglers fish larger nymph patterns in early spring?Nymph size follows a seasonal arc: early in the year, aquatic insects are at or near maximum size before the first hatches reduce their populations and successive generations emerge progressively smaller. Sizes 14 and 16 are particularly effective in this early window, as they match the naturals more accurately than the smaller patterns that will dominate later in the season.What does Mac Brown recommend for anglers who want to improve most efficiently?Mac consistently points to in-person structured instruction — particularly his two-day casting school — as the highest-leverage investment for improvement. He contrasts this with YouTube and book-based learning, which lack the real-time feedback loop required to correct ingrained errors and build proper mechanics into muscle memory.Related ContentS7, Ep 16 - Simplifying Complexity: Effective Teaching Strategies in Fly Fishing with Mac BrownS7, Ep 20 - Practice Makes Perfect: Mac Brown on Mastering Casting TechniquesS7, Ep 28 - Warming Waters and Active Fish: A Spring Fishing Update with Mac BrownS6, Ep 10 - Casting Angles with Mac BrownS6, Ep 141 - Mastering Cold Weather Fly Fishing with Mac BrownConnect with Our GuestFollow Mac on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram,

Imagine growing up in a world where energy was real, spirit was part of the conversation, and healing was something passed down through generations. That was my guest, Barbara Savin's world. In this episode, Barbara shares the powerful influence of her two grandmothers and how they shaped the path she walks today. One was a natural healer. The other lived a life of service. Between the two of them, Barbara absorbed something rare – a deep knowing that life is more than what you can see. From Brooklyn to Spiritual Awakening Raised in Brooklyn, Barbara's journey from highly sensitive child to certified hypnotherapist and spiritual life coach is layered, human, and surprisingly relatable. She didn't just inherit mystical gifts. She had to wrestle with them. And that's where it gets interesting. Barbara grew up in a time when anything spiritual was dismissed as “woo-woo.” Even with two spiritually attuned grandmothers, the outside world didn't validate what she felt. Her own mother was skeptical and often dismissive of Barbara's intuitive experiences, which created a deep inner conflict. Imagine being a sensitive child who feels everything and senses emotion in a room instantly, and then being told it's not real. That tension stayed with her for years. She often felt caught between two worlds, the practical Brooklyn life around her and the invisible energetic world humming just beneath the surface. It wasn't until her 30s, when her own health challenges brought her to a breaking point, that she stopped resisting what she already knew. Sometimes life nudges you. Sometimes it pushes. Her health crisis became a doorway. Returning to energy healing wasn't just about improving her physical well-being. It required emotional, mental, and spiritual recalibration. She had to come home to herself. By reclaiming her intuitive gifts, she regained her health and stepped into her true purpose. And here's the thing I love about Barbara's story. It's the unfolding of someone finally trusting what had always been there. Healing Amidst Trauma One of the most moving periods of her life came after 9/11. Her husband and son managed to escaped harm that day and the enormous relief and gratitude she felt pushed her into service. When invited to help with first responders she jumped at the chance. She worked in the Salvation Army tent on Staten Island, assisting first responders with their healing. Working with firefighters and others who were deeply traumatized changed her understanding of healing forever. Trauma doesn't just live in the mind. It becomes embedded in the body and ripples through the nervous system. It lingers in the energy field and touches the spirit. You don't just “get over” something like that. Healing trauma, she realized, is a return to safety on every level. Physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual. It requires presence and compassion, and simply can't be rushed. Protect Your Energy Her work during that time cemented what she already sensed as a child. You are more than your physical body, and real healing must include the unseen layers of who you are. That brings us to something we both feel strongly about: protect your energy. Barbara credits her grandmother's teachings about stepping into God's light as foundational. It's a simple but powerful image. You consciously surround yourself with light and set an intention that only love flows in and out. That's a beautiful example of energetic hygiene. Just as you brush your teeth and care for your physical body, you must tend to your energetic well-being. Barbara emphasizes daily practices like meditation, gratitude, and clear boundaries. Her methods are grounded and practical. Part of this is to be discerning about who you spend time with. You can feel the difference between someone who lifts you and someone who drains you. Your body and your energy know. She encourages you to notice who feels expansive and who feels heavy? Maintaining healthy boundaries isn't selfish. It's emotionally intelligent and preserves your vitality. Positivity Secrets When I asked Barbara about her secrets to handling the decades  with grace and vibrancy, her answer wasn't complicated. Gratitude and meditation anchor her. Every morning she takes time to reflect on what she's thankful for. Even during seasons of challenge, including her husband's health battles, she returns to presence and appreciation. Gratitude, in her view, isn't a forced positive attitude. Instead, its about alignment and it  shifts your energy field. This is how you recalibrate your nervous system. A grateful heart  reminds you that life is still offering gifts, even when circumstances feel uncertain. That practice keeps her light strong. Embrace Your Spiritual Path Barbara's journey is ultimately about listening to the inner voice that refuses to go away. The one that whispers when something looks good on paper but feels wrong in your body. The one that nudges you back toward your true path no matter how long you've ignored it. She chose to honor that voice, despite skepticism and convention. And in doing so, she built a life of fulfillment and service. There's something comforting about that. No matter how far you wander, your path is still there. Waiting, patient, and unmoved. Get Barbara's beautiful free meditation called “The Garden of Life,” which guides you through a gentle inner landscape of healing and self-discovery. It's an invitation to reconnect with your own energy and remember that the answers you seek are not outside of you. I love Barbara's message of accepting who you are, trusting your sensitivity, and honoring your intuitive gifts. You can always choose light and gratitude even after trauma. Her life is proof that when you embrace your spiritual nature and treat your energy with respect, you grow and find love, joy, and satisfaction. And if you've ever wondered whether your own intuitive nudges are real, whether that quiet inner knowing deserves your trust, Barbara's story feels like a gentle but clear answer. Yes, it does.

If you've been feeling like the old version of you doesn't fit anymore (but the new version hasn't fully landed yet) this episode is for you.Ash records a powerful riff on identity reconstruction: the messy, stretchy middle that happens when you've outgrown the version of you that worked… the one you secretly miss… the one you keep trying to force yourself back into.This is a conversation about evolution, self-rejection, the nervous system's need for certainty, and why confidence isn't something you “find”...  it's something you rebuild through action, curiosity, and willingness to be the scientist of your own life again.TOPICS WE EXPLORE:• What it feels like when you've outgrown an old identity (and why it feels like loss)• The trap of romanticizing the “productive version” of you• Why trying to go backward creates self-rejection (even if it's subconscious)• Identity shifts after children, big life transitions, and major seasons of growth• The “2-year-old vs 1-year-old” metaphor that will change how you see evolution• What happens when you stop having someone else's blueprint to follow• The discomfort of not knowing who you're becoming (and why it's normal)• Why confidence only comes through action... not overthinking• Inactivity as a sneaky form of self-protection (and what it costs)• Beginner mindset, experimentation, and becoming the scientist of your life• The myth that you need the map to move forward• Releasing control as part of becoming who you actually are nowPOINT OF THE EPISODE:You can't be who you used to be…because you aren't her anymore. And the more you try to force yourself back into a previous identity, the more you reject the version of you that's emerging. Identity reconstruction isn't about “fixing” yourself. It's about accepting who you are now, letting evolution be messy, and rebuilding confidence through curiosity, action, and play.MENTIONED:• Ash on the Hot Talks podcast with Danielle Laura: a conversation on over-functioning as a trauma response, control as a nervous syAre you loving it?

In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast, we're breaking down the subtle mental habits that quietly sabotage food addiction recovery. From perfectionism and denial to ego and emotional avoidance, these patterns often derail progress long before a binge ever happens.

Eugene joins me to talk about how artificial intelligence is showing up in optometry and why there's a growing gap between how patients use AI in their daily lives and how most practices are adopting it.   We discuss how this shift is changing patient expectations, what it means for the patient journey, and where practices can use AI to improve engagement, communication, and efficiency—without losing the human element of care. We wrap up with a look at where AI in healthcare is headed and how practice owners can use it intentionally to enhance both patient experience and practice operations.   Resources: Book a Triage call with Adam Download the Practice Owner's Financial Toolkit 20/20 Money Ultimate Financial Success Masterclass OD Mastermind Interest Form National Strategic Group   ————————————————————————————— Please rate and subscribe to 20/20 Money on these platforms Apple Podcasts Spotify ————————————————————————————— For past episodes of 20/20 Money with full companion show notes, please check out our episode archive here!   The Optometry Success Podcast  Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/4tttng6 Subscribe on Spotify: https://bit.ly/4tuf0YM 

In this warm, encouraging conversation, Sarah and I share about transforming our daily time in the kitchen—from seeing it as a reluctant chore to embracing it as a place of genuine joy, love, and even worship. We share how God softened their hearts toward cooking, revealing it as a beautiful way to steward their homes, nurture their families, and extend hospitality even in the everyday moments. Drawing from Scripture and real-life experiences, they explore how preparing meals can minister to others (just as Jesus did around the table), build lasting family memories, and fill the home with an inviting aroma that points to His presence. Together we discuss simple, heartfelt shifts: slowing down to savor the process, involving children in meaningful ways, setting the table with care (candles, music, favorite dishes—even for their own loved ones), and reclaiming the family table in a culture that's losing it. Whether you're a busy mom looking to find delight in meal prep or simply want to make your kitchen feel more like the heart of your home, this episode invites you to start small and rediscover cooking as an act of purposeful love poured out right where you are.   Resources Referenced: Subscribe to the NHC Email: www.nohighercalling.org  Connect with Sarah on IG https://www.instagram.com/faithfulandflourishing/  Subscribe to Sarah's Email/Substack https://faithfulandflourishing.org/  The Lifegiving Table by Sally Clarkson https://amzn.to/4bV0MtP  Teachers of Good Things by Francie Taylor https://amzn.to/3MBlk0b  Farmhouse on Boone Beginner Sourdough Bread https://www.farmhouseonboone.com/beginners-sourdough-bread-recipe/ Erin Bates Paine Sourdough for Beginners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fi84RRL7sWg&t=204s  Sue Becker's Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/sues-healthy-minutes-with-sue-becker-the-bread-beckers/id1609279985  Watch this interview on YouTube https://youtu.be/o09C8TUtyVk    Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

While many investors think of gold as a hedge or a safe haven, gold miners are not the same as physical gold. They are businesses -with revenue, costs, margins, management teams, and operational risks. Using TYKR's analysis, we explore how many of the companies inside GDX are rated “On Sale,” how many are overpriced, and what that means for long‑term investors. Sean also breaks down the important distinction between wealth building and wealth protection. ETFs, index funds and mutual funds are excellent tools for protecting wealth, but they're not always the best vehicles for long-term compounding. We also discuss why gold often trades flat when broader markets rally, and why investors should be cautious about assuming recent performance will continue.Disclosure: The links provided are affiliate links.

Send a textIn this episode of the Endless Possibilities podcast, Gareth Duignam explores the concept of spiritual bypassing, where individuals use spirituality to avoid facing unresolved emotional wounds. He discusses the importance of shadow work, the dangers of spiritual consumerism, and how relationships serve as mirrors for our inner struggles. The conversation emphasizes the need for humility, self-awareness, and the courage to confront our shadows in order to achieve true spiritual growth and integration.Spiritual bypassing is using spirituality to avoid emotional wounds.Shadow work is essential for true integration of spiritual experiences.Relationships reveal our shadows and unresolved issues.Humility and beginner's mind are crucial in spiritual growth.Spiritual consumerism can lead to a cycle of avoidance.Feeling emotions is necessary for healing and freedom.The light we seek is within, not in external experiences.Awakening involves embracing our full humanity, including our shadows.Storytelling can create separation from reality and ourselves.Integration requires grounding spiritual experiences in our human reality.

We explore the argument between tracking vs “feeling”, break down the real nuances of progressive overload, and discuss why the stimulus derived might matter more than the absolute weight being used.We also cover how this training strategy might shift depending on where you are in your journey, and why the answers to some of the biggest questions in training aren't as settled as the fitness industry likes to pretend.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to Intuitive Training02:58 Exploring the Bro Split and Recency Bias06:00 Mental State and Training Frequency Challenges09:00 Tracking Progress: Intuitive vs. Logbook14:41 The Nuances of Progressive Overload20:18 The Importance of Muscle Connection26:06 Beginners vs. Advanced Training Strategies29:49 Adjusting Weight for Optimal Progress33:56 The Importance of Structure for Beginners35:24 Seasonal Training Approaches38:48 Transitioning from Tracking to Intuitive Training42:31 The Role of Connection in Muscle Training52:57 Exploring the Unknowns of Progressive Overload Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

Property is supposed to be the ultimate safety net… so why does it sometimes just feel like stress (and a second full-time job you never applied for)? Today we’re getting into the accidental landlord era. AKA what happens when your old home becomes an investment property, but you actually hate being a landlord? We’re talking profit maths, property managers, emergency funds, what “safety net” really means, and the truth about whether you could even move back in if things went sideways.Then it gets very spicy with a DM that asks: should you give your partner your banking password? They don’t live together, it’s not a shared account.... and suddenly we’re in full red-flag territory. We break down financial boundaries, fraud risks, what the banks actually say and the difference between transparency and handing over the keys to your emergency fund. Plus of course, your money wins, elite broke tips, and your classic Friday chaos. WANT TO INVEST IN PROPERTY WITHOUT BEING A LANDLORD?: Listen to our episode You Can Invest in Property With $5.

In this episode of the Food Freedom podcast, Coach Mary gets honest about the evolution of recovery and why sometimes, she actually misses the simplicity of the early days. Back then, keto felt like the answer to everything. Life was clear, structured and felt simple, but with growth comes nuance and with nuance comes confusion, overthinking, and fear of doing it “wrong.”Mary talks about the tension between simplicity and complexity in recovery, how too much information can cause analysis paralysis, and why brutal self-honesty is the only way to keep moving forward. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by all the opinions and noise in the health and recovery world, this episode will help you reconnect with your truth and your intuition again.Grab your copy of my FREE 9 page Beginner's Guide to Food Sobriety https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietyguideFood Freedom Online Course: https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodfreedomcourseFood Sobriety Mini Course -https://www.foodfreedomwithmary.com/foodsobrietymcWant to learn more about me and my coaching programs?

Andrew Gray's triathlon journey is proof that progress does not have to take decades. In just four years, he went from finishing 18th in his first sprint triathlon, navigating rough transitions and limited gear, to becoming a New Jersey state champion in both sprint and Olympic distance racing. A 2025 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Andrew now balances elite-level training with a demanding career on Wall Street. His days begin at 4 a.m. with focused workouts, continue through a 10-hour workday, and end with another intentional training session. Instead of chasing endless volume, he trains with precision, showing what is possible when discipline meets belief.   In this episode of Tri Beginner's Luck, Andrew shares why he is choosing to dominate as an elite age grouper rather than pursue a pro card, how the Roka Standard Racing team pushes him to grow, and what a tough race at Ironman 70.3 Florida taught him about resilience. He also reflects on access, representation in triathlon, and the financial realities that shape who gets to stay in endurance sports long term. Whether you are training for your first sprint triathlon or eyeing USA Triathlon Age Group Nationals, this conversation is a reminder that you do not need perfect circumstances to improve. You need clarity, commitment, and the courage to believe you belong at the front of your own race.   Let's tri this !    Remember to leave a review, share it with your friends, and follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.  And send any questions or feedback you have to  tblpodbiz@tribeginnersluck.com. 

In this week's episode, we're joined by Nordic witch, rune reader, and author of Queering the Runes, Siri Vincent Plouff, for a deep and delightfully bird-filled dive into runic magic. Siri shares the wild origin story of being claimed by Odin via the infamous “Minneapolis Murder” of crows, how that encounter led them into Heathenry, and what it really means to build a relationship with the runes as living spirits. We unpack common misconceptions about Norse culture, hint it is more than just Viking bros and dreads, the impact of Christianization on the myths, and how Hollywood has flattened an incredibly rich and complex spiritual history.Most importantly, we explore what it means to queer the runes, both as an identity and as a verb. Siri breaks down gender fluidity and performance in Old Norse mythology, Loki's shapeshifting chaos, Odin's relationship to feminine magic, and how queering spiritual systems helps us break out of rigid, heteronormative frameworks. We also talk about ethical rune practice, avoiding white supremacist co-optation, and simple low spoon ways to incorporate runes into daily life, including body poses, pocket magic, and protection work. Whether you're rune curious or already in deep, this conversation will expand your understanding of Nordic magic and maybe even your definition of tradition itself.Find more about Siri below:WebsitePatreonHeathen's Journey PodcastChaos and Cunning PodcastBlueSkyInstagramTikTokRegister for the Queering the Runes courseOrder Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DoneJoin our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic
