Worksheet: Growth & Gratitude Journal PromptsWhat if the experiences that broke you could also be the source of your greatest strengths?It's a radical question, especially when you're standing in the aftermath of addiction and trauma, surrounded by what feels like nothing but devastation and regret. But what if within that rubble, there were seeds of profound growth waiting to be discovered?In this powerful episode of The Addicted Mind Plus, hosts Duane Osterlind and Eric Osterlind explore the transformative concept of benefit finding and post-traumatic growth. This isn't about pretending the past wasn't painful or toxic positivity that dismisses real suffering. Instead, it's about learning to hold two truths at the same time: your pain was real and devastating, AND you can grow stronger because of how you navigated through it.The episode tackles a pain point many in recovery face: feeling permanently defined by the worst things that have happened to you. When you look back and see only a wasteland of mistakes, regrets, and broken pieces, it becomes incredibly difficult to build a hopeful future. That narrative of victimhood and brokenness can feel impossible to escape.Duane and Eric introduce the concept of post-traumatic growth (PTG)—significant positive psychological change that comes not from the traumatic event itself, but from the struggle with that event. Think of it like a forest fire: the fire is devastating, but the struggle for survival can lead to new, significant growth in the ecosystem afterward.The hosts identify five key areas where people often experience growth after trauma: improved relationships with deeper, authentic connections; new possibilities and opportunities that weren't visible before; a greater sense of personal strength and resilience; spiritual development and a broader sense of meaning; and a deeper appreciation for life and gratitude for things once taken for granted.Throughout the episode, Duane and Eric emphasize the critical importance of validating pain before exploring growth. You can't skip over the hurt to get to the healing. As Duane explains, you have to sit with the pain and acknowledge it's real before you can discover the benefits—but you don't have to stay in that pain forever.The episode offers two gentle, reflective exercises for listeners. The first invites you to identify one personal strength—like resilience, empathy, patience, or determination—that has been significantly enhanced because of what you walked through. The second is a journal prompt: "What is one important lesson I've learned about myself, about others, or about life through this journey so far?"These reflections help reframe the narrative of your life. As Eric powerfully states, you stop being just the victim of your past and become the person who faced immense challenges and found strength and meaning in the struggle. This doesn't change what happened, but it can change what it means to you today.Duane shares one of his favorite quotes from Viktor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning": "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." That's the heart of this work—changing ourselves in response to what we've endured and finding real purpose in that transformation.To support listeners in this gentle process of exploration, Duane and Eric have created a free Growth and Gratitude Journal Prompts worksheet, available in the show notes at theaddictivemind.com.This episode is a compassionate invitation to look at your past through a new lens—not one that erases the pain, but one that helps you discover the unexpected gifts that emerged from your struggle. If you're in recovery and wrestling with feelings that your past is only a story of damage, this episode offers hope and a path forward.Key Topics • Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG): Understanding how significant positive change can emerge from struggling with major life crises and traumatic events• The Importance of Validating Pain First: Why you must acknowledge and sit with pain before you can discover the benefits and growth that followed• Five Key Areas of Growth: Exploring improved relationships, new possibilities, personal strength, spiritual development, and deeper life appreciation• Holding Competing Truths: Learning to acknowledge that an experience was 100% painful while simultaneously recognizing the growth that came from navigating it• Reframing Your Life Narrative: Shifting from a story defined by damage to one of growth, resilience, and meaning• Practical Reflection Exercises: Two actionable steps for identifying strengths gained and lessons learned through adversity• Viktor Frankl's Wisdom: Applying the principle that when we can't change a situation, we're challenged to change ourselvesTimestamps[00:01:00] - Opening question: What if the things that broke you could be your greatest strengths?[00:03:00] - The pain point: Feeling permanently defined by your past damage and mistakes[00:05:00] - Introduction to Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) and how growth comes from the struggle, not the event[00:06:00] - The five key areas where people experience growth after trauma[00:08:00] - Actionable Step 1: Reflect on one strength you've gained or enhanced through your struggle[00:10:00] - Actionable Step 2: Journal prompt - What have I learned about myself, others, or life?[00:11:00] - Viktor Frankl quote and closing thoughts on transformation and the free worksheet resourceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The debate between owning and renting will go on forever — it all depends on your stage in life, finances, and lifestyle. But as you get older, one thing becomes clear: housing security matters more than ever. The last thing you want in retirement is to be forced out of your neighborhood because of rising rent. Yet as a renter, you have little control over how much your landlord raises prices, especially if you're not in a rent-stabilized home. With housing inflation outpacing wage growth, it's time to get neutral real estate by at least owning your primary residence. In this episode, I'll share why ownership becomes more valuable with age — and how to think about real estate in a world where affordability keeps shrinking. Read the post for more details and discussion: Please Don't Rent For Life: Housing Security Is Vital Other related post: Why I'll Never Manage Money For Anyone For Free Again Invest In Real Estate Passively If you can't buy a home yet, don't sit on the sidelines while housing prices and rents keep rising. You can still participate in the real estate market and build wealth over time — without needing to come up with a massive down payment. That's why I've invested with Fundrise, a platform that allows everyday investors to gain exposure to residential and industrial properties nationwide. With over $3 billion in assets under management and 350,000+ investors, Fundrise makes it easy to own a piece of the real estate market that continues to compound in value. Real estate has historically been one of the best ways to hedge against inflation and grow wealth passively. And with a minimum investment of only $10, anyone can start investing today.

Parenting in the digital age can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. For this episode, Emily brings in the insight of Ash Brandin for a thoughtful conversation about her book, Power On, and what healthy screen use can actually look like for families. With over 15 years of hands-on experience teaching in the classroom, Ash shares a perspective that moves away from fear and guilt, encouraging parents to think about screens with the same balance and neutrality we often bring to food or other everyday choices.By the end, you'll hopefully have a more compassionate lens for thinking about tech and some practical, flexible ideas for creating a calm, balanced approach to screen time that truly fits with your own family's life.Listen and Learn: How viewing kids' screen time with moral neutrality can help parents move past guilt and fear to understand the real purposes screens serve and the deeper systemic issues driving our reliance on themWhy the old “two-hour screen limit” is outdated and oversimplified, and how a personalized family media plan can lead to healthier, more sustainable screen useReframing of screen time and how systemic factors make it unfair to place all the blame or responsibility on individual parents, and why true change requires collective, not individual, solutionsHow self-determination theory explains kids' relationships with screens, not as addiction but as a way to meet core needs for autonomy, competence, and connection, and how parents can stay neutral, understand what needs are being met, and help kids find healthy, varied ways to fulfill themWhy not everything that releases dopamine is addictive, how our relationship to an activity matters more than the activity itself, and why screens aren't “evil dopamine machines”Resources: Power on: Managing Screen Time to Benefit the Whole Family https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780306836992Ash's Website https://www.thegamereducator.com/Connect with Ashon Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/thegamereducatorhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ash-brandin025For More on Ash's Work, Subscribe to their Substack https://thegamereducator.substack.com/ About Ash BrandinAsh Brandin, EdS, known online as TheGamerEducator, empowers families to make screen time sustainable, manageable, and beneficial for the whole family.

If you've been following Nature's Archive for a while, you might be familiar with the idea of “leave the leaves”.

BT & Sal launch a fiery assault on the New York Giants' management, specifically general manager Joe Shane, after the decision to fire Brian Daboll while retaining the GM. Given the team's decade-plus run of losing, the hosts vehemently refuse to give the front office any "benefit of the doubt" for their future plans. Sal argues that the team's collapse is the GM's fault for building an inept roster, questioning where the depth is, particularly on the defensive side, and slamming high draft picks like Kayvon Thibodeaux and Abdul Khader for not making an impact. BT agrees, asserting that the organization is caught in a cycle of ineptitude and demanding to know the "excuse for keeping the general manager" after a disastrous period of team-building. They conclude that the Giants' current trajectory is the "antithesis" of what successful NFL franchises are doing.

The U.S. job market is experiencing a gradual slowdown, with the unemployment rate rising to 4.36% in October 2025, according to estimates from the Chicago Federal Reserve. Despite an increase in layoff announcements, initial unemployment claims remain low at 229,000, indicating some stability. Major companies like Amazon, UPS, and Target have announced significant job cuts, but studies suggest these layoffs are not primarily driven by artificial intelligence (AI) advancements. Instead, financial pressures and a lack of productivity gains from AI are cited as the main factors, with 96% of businesses reporting no significant efficiency improvements from AI implementations.Trust in generative AI is growing, with 48% of respondents expressing complete trust in these systems, compared to only 18% for traditional AI. However, only 40% of organizations are investing in governance and ethical safeguards, raising concerns about complacency rather than genuine trust. Gartner predicts that by 2026, half of companies will require AI-free critical thinking skills assessments, reflecting a growing dependency on AI. Additionally, a trend of rehiring laid-off employees suggests that the anticipated efficiency gains from AI may not be materializing as expected.The episode also highlights the transition of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) to AI-powered personal computers, driven more by the end of Windows 10 support than by a desire for AI features. Over 60% of SMBs prioritize performance, reliability, and security in their purchasing decisions. Managed service providers (MSPs) are positioned as essential partners in guiding these businesses through the upgrade process, especially as hiring slows and automation becomes more critical.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the key takeaway is to focus on delivering tangible value rather than succumbing to AI hype. As companies seek reliable solutions amidst economic uncertainties, MSPs can capitalize on the opportunity to provide guidance on effective technology implementations, compliance, and governance. The evolving landscape underscores the importance of building trust through measurable results and strategic partnerships, particularly as hyperscalers like Google and AWS enhance their AI infrastructure capabilities.  Four things to know today00:00 Everyone's Blaming AI for Layoffs — But the Real Problem Is Old-Fashioned Economics04:35 Generative AI Gains Global Trust, But Weak Governance and Deferred Spending Signal Market Correction Ahead09:29 SMBs Upgrade for Security, Not AI — MSPs Poised to Benefit as Hiring Stalls and Demand for Guidance Rises12:41 Google Unveils Ironwood AI Chip as AWS Expands MSP Program — Hyperscalers Double Down on AI Infrastructure and Partner Enablement This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship

Modern culture tells men to “man up” – but not for their own sakes. In today's episode, I expose how society defines masculinity for the benefit of women, and why this does men a disservice. The dominant culture does not want strong, prosperous, masculine men – but it's time for men to reclaim their self-definition.

The All Local for Monday, November 10th

The lights drop in Atlanta and Paul McCartney steps into a room full of memory—and invention. We unpack how an icon in his eighties still delivers a two-hour-forty marathon by leaning on tight harmonies, a punchy horn section, and the kind of live tech that lets Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite explode off a modern stage. The show's emotional peak arrives when Paul sings I've Got a Feeling with John via Get Back footage, a moment that proves technology can connect past and present without cheapening either one.From there we chase the thread of discovery. Remember when The Doors felt brand new again in 1980? A radio deep dive, Apocalypse Now, and a greatest hits record turned Hello, I Love You and Riders on the Storm into fresh obsessions for a new generation. We map that rush forward and backward: how L.A. Woman and Morrison Hotel still punch, how Mr. Mojo Risin' became every teenager's riddle. Along the way, we decode the stories behind The Rolling Stones' Get Off of My Cloud and Neil Diamond's Cracklin' Rosie, and how fame, loneliness, and late-night singalongs sneak into pop myth.Then we give American Beauty the close listen it deserves. From Box of Rain's tenderness to Ripple's campfire wisdom and Truckin's road-scarred grin, we talk sequencing, sunshine daydream codas, and the tradition behind I Know You Rider. We round out the tour with U2's Boy—lean, urgent, and still startling—and a Ramones reappraisal that finds great songs beneath Phil Spector's glossy wall. Through it all, one idea keeps returning: artists adapt, listeners evolve, and the best songs keep meeting us where we are.If that resonates, hit play, follow the show, and share it with a friend who loves live music and music history. Leave a review to tell us which song hit you differently this time—we'll feature our favorite takes on a future episode.Send us a one-way message. We can't answer you back directly, but it could be part of a future Music In My Shoes Mailbag!!!

From reducing air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions to lowering rates of chronic disease and promoting mental well-being, active transport systems are reshaping cities and lives.

Adam Millard-Ball is a professor of urban planning at the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs where he also directs the UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies. His research addresses the challenges of transportation and climate change by how we plan our streets and move around our cities and to identify and evaluate policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The benefits market is flooded with solutions that promise innovation but deliver total chaos. They're built on "razor-thin margins" to chase top-line revenue, and the service inevitably collapses, leaving you, the broker, to clean up the mess and take the blame. It's a broken model that ruins your reputation.But what if you could offer a plan with the stability of a BUCA, the innovation of a tech company, and get a quote in 48 hours? My guest, Caleb Parker of Angle Health, joins me on The Broker's Voice to share his framework. We get into why Angle is built on an "AI-native" chassis to deliver precision underwriting, how they avoid the margin trap that kills other solutions, and why they can deliver a Jan 1st quote on Jan 10th. This is the game plan for finally having a stable, scalable alternative.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

OVERVIEWCreatine is one of the most researched supplements available, it's safe to consume, and it has been receiving renewed interest in endurance cycling.

Join us for the official launch of Reimagining Social Security: Global Lessons for Retirement Policy Changes by Romina Boccia and Ivane Nachkebia, a timely and urgent new book in which the authors rethink how America can safeguard retirement security for current and future generations. As the Social Security program nears a fiscal tipping point, the authors bring together expert insights, international case studies, and actionable policy solutions to show how the United States can reform its retirement system without burdening younger generations with unsustainable debt and taxes.Now marking its 90th year, Social Security faces a critical moment: By 2033, the program's trust fund depletion could trigger automatic benefit cuts of 23 percent unless Congress acts. Reimagining Social Security dives into the root causes of this crisis and explores how reforms adopted in countries including Canada, Germany, Sweden, and New Zealand can offer valuable guidance for the United States. Through original interviews and novel analysis, the authors present a compelling case for bold reforms that take a meaningful step toward fiscal sustainability while safeguarding a vital source of income for many retirees and protecting workers from undue tax burdens that reduce their choices and opportunities for a better life.The event will feature presentations and panel discussions with leading experts in retirement and fiscal policy.

Cooking is a passion and hobby for a lot of people. They scour Pinterest for hours to pick the best recipe, dice their ingredients finely, let the food cook gently and even reuse leftovers in inventive ways. But for others, cooking is a hassle and a bother. Grocery shopping, the cooking itself and cleaning up all seems like a lot of effort. But maybe those people don't appreciate how cooking can actually benefit their mental health. In August 2023, Stylist.co.uk ran a feature on the mental health benefits of cooking. They spoke to Bayu Prihandito, a certified psychology advisor and life coach. He explained that when you cook, you enter what's known as a 'flow state'. That's basically a mental state where you're fully engaged in an activity. It gives you a feeling of achievement and helps  lower stress. What kind of benefits are we talking about? What's the best way to establish a regular cooking routine? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Andrew Jordan, a CPA specializing in IT services and managed service providers (MSPs), discusses the implications of recent tax code changes for MSPs. The new legislation, referred to as the "big, beautiful bill," has introduced significant modifications, including the reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation. This allows MSPs to write off the full cost of new servers and equipment in the year they are put into service, which can greatly benefit their financial planning and tax strategies.Jordan also highlights the expansion of Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS) provisions, which can enable certain small businesses to sell their stock without incurring taxes. This is particularly relevant for MSPs considering an exit strategy, as it can mean retaining more of the sale proceeds. However, to qualify, businesses must be structured as C corporations, which is less common among MSPs that often operate as S corporations. Jordan emphasizes the importance of planning and understanding the implications of this structure for future sales.Additionally, the conversation touches on the Research and Development (R&D) tax credits, which are broader than many realize. Activities such as developing new automation scripts or configuring server setups can qualify for these credits, potentially leading to significant tax savings. Jordan advises MSPs to track their labor costs and time spent on R&D activities, as this can help determine eligibility for credits and refunds.Finally, Jordan addresses the potential changes to overtime deductions and the importance of aligning with a CPA who matches the business owner's risk tolerance. He encourages MSPs to stay informed about these evolving tax regulations and to consider how they can optimize their financial strategies in light of these changes. The discussion underscores the need for proactive financial planning as MSPs prepare for future growth and potential sales.
