This week's episode features iconic relationship expert Harville Hendrix, PhD. We'll discuss his work in Imago Therapy and seminal book, Getting the Love You Want (A Guide for Couples). Harville Hendrix, PhD began his career as a therapist and educator at the Pastoral Counseling Center of Greater Chicago in 1965 where he was Clinical Director He received his doctorate in Psychology and Theology in 1970 and became a member of the faculty of Perkins Divinity School at Southern Methodist in Dallas, Texas where he taught for nine years. In 1979 he entered private practice as a therapist. In 1977, Harville met Helen LaKelly Hunt and they married in 1982. They are co-creators of Imago Relationship Therapy, a couple's therapy and co-authors of three New York Times best sellers (Getting the Love You Want-(4 million copies); Keeping The Love You Find, and Giving The Love That Heals), Receiving Love, and Making Marriage Simple and six other books on relationships Imago Relationship Therapy has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey show seventeen times, one of which won for her the "most socially redemptive" award for daytime talk shows. It has also been featured on many other major television shows, in countless radio shows, newspapers and major magazines. Harville and Helen founded the Institute for Imago Relationship Therapy to train therapist in the Imago process and to develop workshops for couples and singles. Later called the Imago International Training Institute, which was forty faculty members, the institute has trained over 2500 therapists who practice Imago Relationship Therapy in over 60 countries and nearly 200 workshop presenters who conduct workshops around the world. These Imago professionals founded Imago Relationships Worldwide for professional growth and development and created an international Imago community. In 2015, Harville co-founded, with Helen, an organization called Safe Conversations LLC. This training institute teaches a relational intervention based on the latest relational sciences that can help anyone shift from conflict to connection. Harville and Helen believe that Safe Conversations can contribute to a more relational world, with more gender and racial equity. To that end, the aim of SC LLC is to teach Safe Conversations, over the next 30 years, to 3.2 billion people (the tipping point of world population in 2050) with the intention of facilitating that shift from our current "individualistic" civilization to a relational civilization, the fourth stage in human social evolution.

If you got your coffee from a Seattle Starbucks this morning, it may have been prepared by a unionized barista. At least 33 Starbucks in Washington have unions, including the cafe at the company’s headquarters in Sodo and the Reserve Roastery on Capitol Hill, according to The Seattle Times. It’s the result of an organizing effort that began in 2021 in Buffalo, New York. Starbucks workers across that city kicked off a renewed push to unionize those coffee shops. Jaz Brisack was one of the lead organizers on that campaign. They began working with unions while they were a student at the University of Mississippi. Brisack is also the author of "Get on the Job and Organize: Standing Up for a Better Workplace and a Better World," which came out earlier this year. They stopped by the KUOW to talk about their book and why they think that if you have a job, you should have a union. Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

There are times when the pain for the Earth is so strong it feels like it might break you. You may have felt it in your chest after seeing a forest cut down or watching the ocean poisoned. Rosalind talks about her years as an environmental activist and how being in constant contact with destruction led to exhaustion, grief, and a feeling of being stuck. She shares how Yoga became a way to meet those feelings, move through them, and reconnect with the energy to keep going. Mark and Rosalind speak about allowing every stage of emotion to be felt — from numbness to fear, anger, pain, grief, and finally compassion.

Payam Akhavan has witnessed appalling episodes of human cruelty and suffering. And that's helped forge his commitment to pursuing justice for the victims of human rights abuses.

In 2017, he delivered the Massey Lectures titled In Search of a Better World: A Human Rights Odyssey. He explains how the themes explored in his lectures have taken on even more relevance in today's divided and conflict-ridden world. *This episode originally aired on June 26, 2024.

Cynthia Duran, founder of Xinca Foods, shares her journey of creating the first Salvadorian frozen food brand in the U.S. She talked about her family's love of food, their cultural roots, and the challenges of entrepreneurship. Cynthia emphasizes the significance of community support and feedback in building her brand, as well as her future plans for growth and product development. She reflects on her recent pitch competition wins, including Naturally Rising Seattle's People Choice Award, the personal growth she has experienced through her entrepreneurial journey, and the impact she hopes to make in the world through her food.Takeaways:Cynthia's family culture influenced her passion for cooking.Food is a way to connect with cultural roots.Xinca Foods aims to share Salvadorian culture with a wider audience.Community feedback is crucial for product development.Cynthia's journey has been filled with challenges and triumphs.The importance of quality in food production cannot be overstated.Cynthia's experience in data analysis helps her understand consumer behavior.Building a brand requires resilience and adaptability.A better world means being kind and supporting one another.Sound bites:“My parents always said, you need to be independent. You need to learn how to cook for yourself.”“Growing up, I thought everyone in the United States knew what loroco was, but it turns out only people who grew up in Salvadorian or Guatemalan households knew.”“I was thinking, why can't I find pupusas in the freezer aisle?”“Salvadorian people are the third largest Latino community in the United States.”“The quesadilla dessert is a great segue for us because not only is it a traditional Salvadorian dessert, it's also appealing to consumers.”“One thing I've learned is packaging is everything, especially when you're in CPG.”“Dwight from Town and Country said “Your product is selling itself even if you're not standing in front of the case.”””I really like making that impact, but I didn't realize it when I started this business. I was just making food for my community.”“We were looking for a co-packer, but there wasn't really anyone that could make the product the way I wanted it.”“We were like, well, we don't really have a choice. We have to have a custom machine to make the product to my specific specifications, right?”“It's a great advantage for me because other people can't really do that or can't really do their own research and development the way that I can because I have the ability to do that in my own place.”“This is a very cash intensive, time consuming type of business.”“Sometimes we can think with our heart, but you also have to think with your mind, right?”“I'm just happy that I won both.

This week's episode features iconic relationship expert Harville Hendrix, PhD. We'll discuss his work in Imago Therapy and seminal book, Getting the Love You Want (A Guide for Couples). Harville Hendrix, PhD began his career as a therapist and educator at the Pastoral Counseling Center of Greater Chicago in 1965 where he was Clinical Director He received his doctorate in Psychology and Theology in 1970 and became a member of the faculty of Perkins Divinity School at Southern Methodist in Dallas, Texas where he taught for nine years. In 1979 he entered private practice as a therapist. In 1977, Harville met Helen LaKelly Hunt and they married in 1982. They are co-creators of Imago Relationship Therapy, a couple's therapy and co-authors of three New York Times best sellers (Getting the Love You Want-(4 million copies); Keeping The Love You Find, and Giving The Love That Heals), Receiving Love, and Making Marriage Simple and six other books on relationships Imago Relationship Therapy has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey show seventeen times, one of which won for her the "most socially redemptive" award for daytime talk shows. It has also been featured on many other major television shows, in countless radio shows, newspapers and major magazines. Harville and Helen founded the Institute for Imago Relationship Therapy to train therapist in the Imago process and to develop workshops for couples and singles. Later called the Imago International Training Institute, which was forty faculty members, the institute has trained over 2500 therapists who practice Imago Relationship Therapy in over 60 countries and nearly 200 workshop presenters who conduct workshops around the world. These Imago professionals founded Imago Relationships Worldwide for professional growth and development and created an international Imago community. In 2015, Harville co-founded, with Helen, an organization called Safe Conversations LLC. This training institute teaches a relational intervention based on the latest relational sciences that can help anyone shift from conflict to connection. Harville and Helen believe that Safe Conversations can contribute to a more relational world, with more gender and racial equity. To that end, the aim of SC LLC is to teach Safe Conversations, over the next 30 years, to 3.2 billion people (the tipping point of world population in 2050) with the intention of facilitating that shift from our current "individualistic" civilization to a relational civilization, the fourth stage in human social evolution.

Welcome. I'm Kevin Miller and this is a podcast for your personal evolution.  In this episode  Will A Better World Really Benefit Us & If Not - What Actually Will I've struggled with technology and conveniences and efficiency for a long time. All our human advancements with tech and now AI and such are promoted as if they will finally make everything better and us, happier. But I have not experienced any technological advance that has added to my happiness, and actually, I feel it's done the opposite. How many people have experienced an electricity outage and have stories of how great it was. We get out candles, play games, and talk like we haven't in ages. On a more grand scale, are all our advances that arguably make life better, resulting in more happiness? Not according to our constantly declining health stats. So if all the “betterment” efforts aren't making us happy, why? And what will? My guest is Soren Gordhamer. Soren is the founder and host of Wisdom 2.0, the premier conference exploring living with greater mindfulness, wisdom, and compassion in the modern age. Soren brings the leaders of technology, literally the giants who most impact the world as we know it, together with leaders in wisdom to explore how we can create a truly livable world with greater presence, purpose, and connection in this digital age that feels more and more like chaos just speeding up. Soren's work focuses on a central question: as technology becomes ever more integrated into our lives, will it support human thriving and connection—or drive distraction and isolation? He's culminated what he's learned about the influence of tech and now AI into a new book, The Essential: Discovering What Really Matters in an Age of Distraction. I sat down with Soren to get candid on my feeling that all our advancements are not and will not make us happier, and in fact, will continue to add to our declining mental health. Soren sights AI in health as expectant to do great things, such as find a cure for cancer. But I ask that even with that, a cure for cancer, will that actually make us happier?

In this conversation, Dr. Elizabeth Klodas, a preventive cardiologist and founder of Step One Foods, discusses the critical role of nutrition in managing heart disease and the challenges faced in integrating dietary changes into medical practice. She shares her journey from traditional medicine to creating a food company aimed at reducing reliance on medications through nutrition. The discussion highlights the importance of randomized controlled trials in validating the effectiveness of food-based interventions, the impact of pharmaceuticals on healthcare, and the need for a shift in consumer perceptions towards whole food ingredients. Dr. Klodas emphasizes the potential for a healthier future where cardiologists are less needed due to preventive measures and lifestyle changes.Takeaways:Nutrition is often overlooked in favor of pharmaceuticals in healthcare.Patients are rarely asked about their diet by healthcare providers.Changing dietary habits can lead to significant health improvements.Pharmaceuticals are easier to prescribe than dietary changes.There is a lack of nutrition education in medical training.Step One Foods aims to fill nutritional gaps in patients' diets.Randomized controlled trials can validate the effectiveness of food products.Consumer perceptions of health foods can be influenced by marketing.The food industry often prioritizes cost over nutrition.A better world would mean fewer cardiologists needed due to preventive health measures.Sound bites:“There is very little to no nutrition education for physicians. As I look back on this I consider this educational malpractice.”“All the medical evidence of what we should be doing is very heavily pharma biased, because guidelines are based on randomized control clinical trials.”“So there's loads of reasons why nutrition is not used in clinical care the way it should be. None of that is an excuse though, because it works and it's so vital.”“What if I asked you to like eat this food twice a day and I otherwise left you alone? What started happening is people calling and saying, hey, my cholesterol dropped 39 points. Then I'm like, okay, we're gonna subject our products to a randomized control trial. Let's see. Let's prove it. Does this actually work?”“If I reduce, LDL, the bad cholesterol across the US population by an average of 9%, I will finally dethrone heart disease as our number one killer.”“In that trial, we replicated what people were calling in with our highest LDL reduction was close to 40 % in 30 days. That's a medication level cholesterol reduction. And we did that with food, without turning people's lives upside down.”“It's not just the nutrient of interest that's important. It's the delivery vehicle. You can stuff a bunch of fiber into a Twinkie. But in the end, you're still eating a Twinkie, right? Food and nutrition is complex.”“At Step One Foods I take the complexity out for people. I take whole food ingredients, each and every single one that has data behind it in terms health benefits, and put them in my foods.”“We are probably the most overfed and undernourished society in the history of our species.”“If you truly believe in your mission, you have to ignore all the no's.”Promo Offer:Code: BETTERWORLDLink: https://www.steponefoods.com/discount/BETTERWORLDOffer: 10% off first order for both one time and subscription orders.

Is democracy living on borrowed time? In this electrifying episode of The Valley Current®, host Jack Russo sits down with David Nash, creator of The Segmented World, to explore whether a “good autocracy” might be the world's only path forward. Drawing on insights from his Segmented World Model and his upcoming book series, David argues that rising debt, climate pressures, and political paralysis could push nations toward centralized, one-party rule, citing Singapore as a possible template. Together, they dive into the explosive implications of super-intelligent AI, the dangers of strongman politics, and how economic shocks might trigger seismic shifts in governance. Can liberal democracy survive the crises ahead, or will the future belong to carefully managed autocracies?

In this episode, we discuss how women and men often misunderstand the meaning of what they say to the opposite sex. What may have been intended to be a compliment could be taken very differently. And, this works both ways. Silke Schwarzkopf is the creator and host of 2nd Act TV, a YouTube channel focused on recreating and living your life to the fullest after 50! A seasoned producer, Silke owned and operated an award-winning production company for nearly 20 years. Shortly after her 50th birthday, she took a huge leap of faith, left an unfulfilled 25-year marriage, and returned to her hometown in SoCal to pursue the development of original programming most pertinent to her evolving reality—starting over after 50—and 2nd Act TV was born! As Executive Producer and Host, Silke is living her motto: "It's never too late to be the person you always wanted to be."
