This is the first episode of Overcoming Polarisaton: Paths to Common Ground, a new podcast series from Debating Europe, Friends of Europe's citizen engagement unit. Europe is feeling fractured. Whether it's politics, climate, tech, or trust in institutions, more and more people are feeling left out, unheard, and uncertain about the future. But what if we could flip the script? What if instead of fuelling division, we looked for common ground? In this series, we're diving into the real issues behind polarisation. Economic inequality, climate anxiety, digital disruption, and bringing together voices from across the spectrum. From policymakers, activists, business leaders, and most importantly, citizens' voices via our latest study “Voices for Choices”. In today's show, host Catarina Vila Nova is speaking with Miriam Gonzalez, who founded Espana Mejor, a non-for-profit organization providing new non-partisan ways for Spanish citizens to contribute to policy making, and Giles Merritt, the founder of Friends of Europe who has written extensively about Europe's demographic challenges.

In this engaging episode of Shark Theory, host Baylor Barbee delves into the often-overlooked art of appreciating the present moment. During a simple outing to the dog park, Barbee finds himself reflecting on his life and the realization that it is essential to acknowledge and appreciate where we are now as we pursue future goals. This episode is a powerful reminder that personal growth is not just about relentless forward momentum but also cherishing the progress made thus far. Baylor emphasizes the importance of positive thinking by encouraging listeners to appreciate their current situations, regardless of the challenges they face. He shares personal anecdotes that highlight how our perceptions shape our experiences and futures. Barbee advises against focusing solely on future achievements or dwelling on current inadequacies but rather advocates for a balanced approach to personal development. Drawing inspiration from a quote by motivational great Jim Rohn, the episode underscores the dual value of happiness in the present and the drive for future success. Listeners are motivated to recognize their blessings today to cultivate a better tomorrow. Key Takeaways: Appreciate your present life, regardless of imperfections, and recognize how far you've come. Positive thinking today lays a foundation for a successful and fulfilling tomorrow. Personal growth involves celebrating current achievements while striving for future goals. Finding satisfaction in past accomplishments helps foster gratitude and momentum toward new aspirations. Recognizing the good in everyday situations can significantly impact your outlook and success. Notable Quotes: "I like my life. And it hit me, Baylor, when was the last time you just told yourself, I like my life?" "Be happy where you are while working toward where you want to be." "If you can find the good in right now, you can create a better tomorrow." "There was a time in your life where you wanted to be here." "The momentum you create creates the life that you want tomorrow."

Donald Trump took office as president on January 20, 2025, having already served one term. Immediately, however, he made clear his second term would be even more unpredictable than his first. He put one of the world's richest men — and his biggest campaign donor — in charge of a shadowy new entity with seemingly unfettered access to government data. Trump also blitzed the system with a barrage of executive orders, which have seemingly upended the government. He has done everything from threatening judges and lawyers to attacking the very concept of birthright citizenship, while Congress has remained largely on the sidelines.In short, Trump has moved aggressively against many of the checks and balances that American democracy has built in. As he works to consolidate power for the executive branch, other players have stepped up to challenge the president's moves — Campaign Legal Center among them. In this special episode of Democracy Decoded, our host Simone Leeper speaks with Trevor Potter, the president and founder of Campaign Legal Center, and Adav Noti, the executive director of Campaign Legal Center, to discuss what they've seen and what they're doing during this unprecedented moment.Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy. Prior to arriving at CLC, Simone was a law clerk in the office of Senator Ed Markey and at the Library of Congress, Office of General Counsel. She received her J.D. cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center in 2019 and a bachelor's degree in political science from Columbia University in 2016.Trevor Potter is President at Campaign Legal Center. A Republican former Chairman of the Federal Election Commission (FEC), Trevor was general counsel to John McCain's 2000 and 2008 presidential campaigns and an adviser to the drafters of the McCain-Feingold campaign finance law. To many, he is perhaps best known for his recurring appearances on The Colbert Report as the lawyer for Stephen Colbert's super PAC, Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, during the 2012 election, a program that won a Peabody Award for excellence in reporting on money in politics. The American Bar Association Journal has described Trevor as “hands-down one of the top lawyers in the country on the delicate intersection of politics, law and money.” He has provided testimony and written statements to Congress on federal election proposals, campaign finance regulation and, recently, the effects of the January 6th attack on our democracy. During the 2020 election season, Trevor was named to the cross-partisan National Task Force on Election Crises.Adav Noti is Executive Director at Campaign Legal Center. He has conducted dozens of constitutional cases in trial and appellate courts and the United States Supreme Court. He also advises Members of Congress and other policymakers on advancing democracy through legislation. Prior to joining CLC, Adav served for more than 10 years in nonpartisan leadership capacities within the Office of General Counsel of the Federal Election Commission, and he served as a Special Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. Adav regularly provides expert analysis for television, radio, and print journalism. He has appeared on broadcasts such as The Rachel Maddow Show, Anderson Cooper 360, PBS NewsHour, and National Public Radio's Morning Edition, and he is regularly cited in publications nationwide, including the New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, Politico, Slate, and Reuters.Links:The Trump Administration's (Second) 100 Days: What You Need to Know – Campaign Legal CenterIt's almost Inauguration Day.

Send us a textOn this episode of The Get Ready Money Podcast, I spoke with George Kinder, author and founder of the Fiduciary In All Things (FIAT) Movement about the FIAT movement. In this episode we discussed:Why FIAT is essential for the future of civilization.Imagine if we lived in a trustworthy world. A great first step is to reflect and listen more. How we can integrate FIAT into our lives, and lead from our personal integrityWithout a fiduciary standard, democracy is undermined and civilization can die. Why institutions have a higher obligation and need to be trustworthy. George Kinder is an author and international thought leader. Known in the financial industry as the Father of Life Planning, George has authored 12 books, including three books on money as he revolutionized client-centered financial advice through experiential trainings for thousands of advisors from over 30 countries across six continents. A mindfulness teacher for thirty-five years, Kinder has led weekly meditation classes and residential retreats around the world. In his latest book, The Three Domains of Freedom, he inspires readers to experience three profound freedoms: the freedom of each moment, the freedom to pursue one's life purpose, and the freedoms of civilization. He advocates a sustainable approach for institutions to prioritize humanity, democracy, the Earth, and the truth above their own self-interest, a concept he terms Fiduciary In All Things (FIAT).Financial Planning Association's first Heart of Financial Planning Award in 2006, recognizing “individuals who demonstrate commitment and passion in doing extraordinary work to contribute or give back to the financial planning community and/or the public.”The Transparency Task Force's Transparency Trophy (2017), recognizing his role in “helping to navigate the industry towards a more transparent, competitive and enlightened state.““One of 20 People Who Shaped the Financial Planning Industry” (“50th Anniversary of Financial Planning” Special Edition, InvestmentNews, 2019).Connect with George Kinder:Website (here)LinkedIn (here) Instagram, Facebook, X and YouTube: @georgedkinderThe Fiduciary in All Things website (here) The Kinder Institute website (here)Life Planning for You website (here) Books:The Three Domains of Freedom: Each Moment Is Yours, Your Life Is Yours, Civilization Is YoursLife Planning for You: How to Design & Deliver the Life of Your DreamsLighting the Torch: The Kinder Method(TM) of Life PlanningThe Seven Stages of Money Maturity: Understanding the Spirit and Value of Money in Your LifeA Golden Civilization and The Map of MindfulnessA Song for Hana & the Spirit of Leho'ulaTransforming Suffering into Wisdom: Mindfulness aSupport the showThe Get Ready Money Podcast and its guests do not provide investment advice.
