For Fans of Hollywood Noir and novels by Elmore Leonard and Michael Connolly comes a new crime novel from a Hollywood insider and true crime writer.Former Detroit homicide detective Edwin Blake broke into show business as a script consultant on cop movies. Now living in Los Angeles five years later, Blake is suffering from clinical depression, is no longer in demand in film and TV – and money is short. But things look up when Blake gets a call from wealthy, oddball producer, Jason “JP” Perry, telling him he wants to hire him for a future cable TV series. But there's a catch. First he wants Blake to locate the missing ex-wife of a “friend of a friend” from Chicago. Blake will be working for free on a promise – a typical Hollywood hustle. But Blake's not the only one on the case. Hired gun Warren Poole has also been contracted to find the woman.When a corrupt Hollywood producer, an ex-cop with a conscience, and a career criminal without one all have the same quarry, trouble is bound to ensue. And it does, with remarkably satisfying results, thanks to Blake's girlfriend, Carla, a former roller derby queen who has turned more than her own life around. Filled with rich characters both easy to love and hate, BELOW THE LINE skewers Hollywood in a deliciously fresh way.With his expert eye for true crime detail and his prowess at executing elaborate plot, Cauffiel gives us a thrilling ride on the dark side of Hollywood that lingers long after the credits roll.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Warum fällt es uns Menschen oft so schwer, gesunde Grenzen zu setzen? Grenzüberschreitungen können sehr individuell sein. Während eine bestimmte Situation bei dir schon längst eine Grenze überschritten hat, löst sie bei jemand anderem eventuell gar nichts aus. Das ist ganz normal. Deswegen ist es auch so wichtig, dass du selbst für dich deine eigenen Grenzen definierst, vor allem auch in deinem Business. In dieser Podcast-Folge kläre ich für dich: - Was sind Grenzüberschreitungen überhaupt? - Warum viele Menschen nicht gelernt haben, Grenzen zu setzen - Wie dir dein Human Design Chart bei diesem Thema helfen kann - Wie du es schaffst, gesunde Grenzen zu setzen Höre gerne mal bei dir rein, gibt es Situationen aus der Vergangenheit oder auch aus der Gegenwart, bei denen du das Gefühl hattest, deine persönliche Grenze wurde überschritten? Gehe in deine Eigenverantwortung und frage dich selbst, ob du dir deiner Grenzen bewusst bist, es lohnt sich. _______________________ Zur Anmeldung von BELOW THE LINE, dem ALL IN Variablenprogramm: https://www.humandesignjourney.de/btl-anmeldung _______________________ Webseite: https://www.humandesignjourney.de/ Kostenloser Chartrechner: https://www.humandesignjourney.de/chartrechner Instagram: [@humandesign_journey](https://www.instagram.com/humandesign_journey/)

Human Design hilft uns, noch mehr Bewusstsein zu erlangen, endlich vom Verstand mehr in den Körper zu kommen, denn dieser Zugang ist bei den meisten von uns leider irgendwann verloren gegangen und deshalb nicht mehr so leicht zu finden. Mithilfe deiner individuellen Variablen in deinem Human Design Chart und deiner persönlichen Signatur kannst du aber wieder beschleunigt genau dahin kommen und dein authentisches Ich leben. Nachdem du vermutlich jahrelang deine innere Autorität ignoriert und im Außen nach einer Lösung gesucht hast, fällt es dir sicher schwer, direkt wieder hineinzukommen, das ist nicht einfach. Ich möchte dich aber mit dieser Podcast-Folge motivieren, regelmäßig deine Signatur zu checken, mehr auf dein Bauchgefühl zu hören und auf deine Körperempfindungen im Körper zu vertrauen.

https://bit.ly/Go_BelowtheLine Dr. John Vervaeke is an associate professor at the University of Toronto, where he teaches courses on thinking, reasoning, problem solving, and cognitive development. He also frequently teaches a course on neuroscientific cognitive scientific theories of consciousness. In addition to his work in cognitive science, Vervaeke is also interested in bridging the gap between spirituality and science. He has created several video series on these topics, including Awakening from the Meaning Crisis and To Awakening from the Meaning Crisis Round Two. Awakening from the Meaning Crisis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncd6q9uIEdw&list=PLND1JCRq8Vuh3f0P5qjrSdb5eC1ZfZwWJ&ab_channel=JohnVervaeke "The mind is between you and the world in a fundamental way. And that you shouldn't think of your mind just as between your brain and the world. But the way in which your brain is in your body is fundamentally relevant to the way in which your brain connects to the world. And you have to understand your mind as the intersection of those two connectivities, how you are connected to your body and how you're connected to the world. And that's where the mind actually is." John Vervaeke, PhD believes that the mind is not just between the brain and the world, but also between the brain and the body. He says that the mind is a dynamic, self-organizing process that is constantly adapting to its environment. He also believes that the separation of cognition and emotion is a false dichotomy, and that both are deeply interwoven. Finally, he believes that the mind is perpetually susceptible to self-deception, and that wisdom is the ability to overcome this self-deception. In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. The mind is not just in the brain – it is also between the brain and the body, and between the individual and the world. 2. Emotions and cognition are deeply intertwined, and neither can be understood in isolation from the other. 3. Most of our knowing is non-propositional – it is knowing how to do something, rather than knowing that something is true. 4. A rapid fire summary of some of the greatest philosophical minds of the last 2500 years including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Buddha, Jesus Christ, St. Augustine, Plotinus, Henry Corbin, Carl Jung, and more.

For profitable, large businesses, a downturn can be great for recruiting and retaining talent as there is a flight to safety and security. For small businesses that have focused maniacally on profitability from day one, a downturn in the market is also managed relatively well. This is in contrast to technology startups that often have to spend years building the product before they can monetize or spend the first few chapters of the company's life focusing on growth over revenue maximization. This means that in an economic downturn, these startups/teams/founders are the most vulnerable to shifting markets, especially those that are dependent on outside capital. This episode is the resource for how to manage one's own psychology, as well as the psychology of the team around them when building and leading a business like this. In the episode, I outline tactics like getting comfortable with the worst case scenario (in order to maximize the chances of the best case scenario), as well as outlining the five guidelines for managing and optimizing your psychology in the midst of circumstances that often present a “fog of war” type of scenario for most leaders. In short, I put this together for you to avoid that scenario. The guidelines have more details within the episode, but they are here below as well for you to reference: 1. Assess and set *proper expectations* for yourself and the team. 2. Find and orient towards a *higher ideal*. 3. Manage your *mental wealth*. 4. Question everything, *especially your own assumptions* going into this new environment. 5. Find your *community of truth*.

Chris Voss was a FBI negotiator for 30 years in New York. He handled situations like bank robberies and terrorist organizations when it came to negotiating deals with them. Chris has now turned those lessons and skills he learned during his time with the FBI into a master class called "The Black Swan Method" for business negotiation. In today's Episode, James and Chris talk about a Bank Robbery that happened at Chase Bank in New York. During the story of this robbery, Chris breaks down his every move and details how it relates to everyday life. From everything to using these skills to get a hotel upgrade to scoring a better deal in business, these skills can be used by anyone and are effective if used correctly.
