I think every kid loves a circus. And there's probably a kid inside of all of us. I still love the circus, too. I've always been personally fascinated by those death-defying artists from the high trapeze. They leap, perfect poise, have grace, from one trapeze to another, until they end up safe on that platform all the way across the arena from where they started. And I guess you could eventually get used to hanging onto a trapeze, and you'd feel comparatively secure as soon as you reached the next one. My problem would be the time between trapezes. Yeah, that would bother me. Actually, it bothers all of us. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Living Between Trapezes." Now, our word for today from the Word of God comes from Jeremiah 29. And you might, like God's people in this passage, be living between trapezes right now. One phase of your life is behind you, and you're counting on a new one up ahead. But right now you're in one of life's great like in-between times. We all go through those. Well, so were the people of God that he was advising in Jeremiah 29. The Jews were in a temporary spot, so to speak, between two permanent spots. They had started out in Israel, they will end up back in Israel, but right now they're between trapezes. They are in-between in captivity in Babylon. It's a temporary place. Here are instructions given by God for people between trapezes. He says, "Build houses, settle down, plant gardens and eat what they produce, marry and have sons and daughters, find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage. Increase in number there and do not decrease. Also, seek the prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper." Now, the message seems to be this: When you're in-between, don't hold back. Live as if you're going to be there the rest of your life. He uses words like build, settle, plant, increase, work for the good of that city, improve where you are. I can hear you saying, "But Lord, this isn't where we want to be. We just want to ‘get by' until we, you know, get to where we want to be." Well, Jeremiah 29:11 is that great verse that so many people quote, where God says, "I know the plans I have for you..." (Now remember, it just follows everything I read before about their in-between status.) "I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a hope and a future." See, God's good plans for tomorrow come from you living whole-heartedly today between trapezes. Today maybe you're not where you want to end up, you're between jobs, or you're in one that's just a stop-gap. Or you're single, waiting, wanting to be married. Maybe you're living in a temporary situation or waiting for some breakthrough. Well, like the Jews of old, it's just an in-between place. But like them, God expects you to build there, to plant there, to increase, to improve that place. Someone once said, "Bloom where you're planted." And as you do, you give God the attitude that He can use to ultimately bring you those great plans, to bring you His very best. If you're in between trapezes right now, remember, this is a terrible place to lose your concentration. Be all you can be right where you are. Actually that's the best way to get safely to the destination that you want so much.
Welcome back to another episode of Bubba (@bdentrek) and the Bloom (@RyanBHQ). On BATB 306, the guys take a break from full-on fantasy analysis and bring in the New Year with their yearly New Year's Resolutions. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I can't quite believe that yet another year of us going on Wise Walks together has come and gone. In our last episode, I invited you to reflect on your previous Word of the Year, and I've been doing that too. Looking back, I can see how my word, Co-create, supported me in ways I couldn't have fully anticipated at the time. Sometimes we choose a word with a clear sense of direction or intuition about what will help us feel more aligned and in our True Stride. When I think about why this practice matters to me, I always come back to the idea of choosing a word for the year not as something to achieve, but as something to lean and live into. A word that helps me stay grounded when things feel uncertain and reminds me of who I want to be when life gets messy. As this new year begins, I found myself slowing down and really asking what kind of support I need right now, not just externally, but from within. On today's Wise Walk, I invite you to explore what a Word of the Year might look like for you. I share the word that emerged for me after reflecting on the past several years and what it means to create the conditions for growth, even when life feels transitional. Together, we'll consider how a single word can act as a quiet compass, helping us stay aligned, rooted, and open to what wants to unfold next. As you reflect on where you've been, where you are now, and how do you want to show up? What word best captures that intention for you this year? Is there a word you want to embody more fully, whether it feels literal and clear or more like a feeling or essence that you're drawn toward? Do you give yourself permission to let one word, or perhaps a few words, or a mantra, gently guide you through the coming year? What word could serve as a navigational star for you, grounding and centering you when things feel rocky or out of alignment? Looking back over the past five years and the seasons that shaped you, what feels ready to carry you into what's next? What word might help you transform, open, or root yourself in ways that feel aligned with who you are becoming? Which areas of your life feel most important to focus on right now, whether physical, mental, spiritual, or relational? Can you choose one word to serve as a steady reminder of how far you've come and where you're headed next? And as you acknowledge the work you've already done, how can you honor your continued growth and unfold it with compassion and trust? I look forward to going on this epic adventure with you in the coming year and blooming in ways we can't even expect right now. Trusting that it will unfold naturally. As always, I would love to hear what you took away from today's episode. Feel free to reach out and share. Then tune in to next Thursday's Wise Walk for another conversation. Until then, happy, happy New Year. In this episode: [03:37] Upon reflection, the idea of opening myself up to further possibilities washed over me. For the last 5 years, I've been going inward and looking for words that would help me grow. [04:44] I give myself permission to choose again and wonder what the possibilities are if I open myself up. [05:38] There has been a tending to my inner self, so my outer self can show up the way it's meant to. Co-create supported me last year, and this year the word that popped up for me is bloom. [06:06] Bloom is tending your garden and appreciating nature's growth from the soil nourishing a seedling, to growing and flourishing. [07:01] I love that this word means that I'm going to put some roots down even in my transitional stage. [10:03] Another cool thing about the word of the year is that many others including striders like yourself are going on this journey with me. [11:03] Thank you so much for listening, and I look forward to going on this adventure with you in the coming year! Memorable Quotes: "Blooming isn't about pushing or proving. It's about creating the conditions that allow growth to happen." - Mary Tess "You don't have to know exactly what's coming next to trust that something meaningful is unfolding." - Mary Tess "A word for the year isn't something to chase. It's something to return to when you need grounding." - Mary Tess "Sometimes the most powerful growth happens quietly, beneath the surface, long before we see the bloom." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Tom Ackerman talks with Chaim Bloom about the Cardinals' current trade posture and offseason timing, clarifying that no moves are imminent despite ongoing conversations. Bloom breaks down the return from the Wilson Contreras trade, including injury updates on Hunter Dobbins as he works back from a knee injury and aims for a full spring training, along with the upside of young pitching prospects Aida and Fajardo. The discussion also covers first base options led by Alec Burleson, development plans for Blaze Jordan, lineup flexibility with Iván Herrera, potential outfield additions, and Bloom's broader vision for modernizing the organization while balancing short-term patience with long-term growth.
César Hidalgo has spent years trying to answer a deceptively simple question: What is knowledge, and why is it so hard to move around?We all have this intuition that knowledge is just... information. Write it down in a book, upload it to GitHub, train an AI on it—done. But César argues that's completely wrong. Knowledge isn't a thing you can copy and paste. It's more like a living organism that needs the right environment, the right people, and constant exercise to survive.Guest: César Hidalgo, Director of the Center for Collective Learning1. Knowledge Follows Laws (Like Physics)2. You Can't Download Expertise3. Why Big Companies Fail to Adapt4. The "Infinite Alphabet" of EconomiesIf you think AI can just "copy" human knowledge, or that development is just about throwing money at poor countries, or that writing things down preserves them forever—this conversation will change your mind.

It's the December Booklab, and while our booklabs are normally only for subscribers, we've made this one free as a little present to you—something to listen to while all the other pods are having a well deserved break.How this works: we've chosen two among the brave souls who have submitted their first pages (i.e. first 350 words) to us. As always, we read the page aloud, with no other information other than genre and (sometimes) title. We talk about what we read, how it was received, what we think we do and don't know about the book and what we should know. We offer constructive comments to these writers, and to all writers, on how to make that first page work as hard for you as it can.And then we answer the question: would we turn the page?Kids, those first pages have to WORK. People download a book, or grab an audio sample, often without the benefit of your flap copy or the beautiful cover, and you need to sell them on sticking around from that first minute. The two entries for this episode:* The Burning Truth is a commercial thriller centered on a woman whose sister's death is reopened when a teenage true-crime podcaster starts investigating a case that hits dangerously close to home.* Camil and Bloom is contemporary literary fiction about a middle-aged woman at a bar grappling with being ghosted, using sharp observational detail to explore loneliness, aging, and stalled lives.Our takeaway is that a first page must work with extreme efficiency: it needs to establish character, stakes, and story direction all at once. Vivid details and strong writing aren't enough on their own; those details have to be focused and clearly tied to the protagonist's emotional core so readers understand whose story this is and why it matters. A compelling hook helps, but clarity of perspective and purpose is what ultimately makes a reader turn the page.#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication.

In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down with Lara Bloom, President and CEO of The Ehlers-Danlos Society, for a revealing look behind the curtain of the Society's ambitious global roadmap to 2026. What will it take to finally change the trajectory for people with EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes) and HSD (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders)? Why have progress and awareness lagged for so long? And what is happening right now around the world that could shift everything? Together, they unpack the systemic obstacles still tripping up patients, from years-long diagnostic delays and rampant misinformation to critical gaps in research, policy, and clinical education. Lara shares the driving force behind her vision for global change and the monumental international effort unfolding to move EDS and HSD into the spotlight they've long deserved. If you've ever wondered why the system feels stuck, or what it might take to finally break through, this conversation offers rare insight and genuine hope. Takeaways: Lara reveals why global alignment across policy, education, and clinical care could be the missing key to major breakthroughs for EDS and HSD. The episode exposes the hidden consequences of misdiagnosis and why early recognition, especially in children, may be more urgent than most clinicians realize. Linda and Lara dig into how outdated terminology and dismissive provider attitudes continue to shape patient experiences in ways few talk about openly. Lara shares how her personal journey fuels her global leadership and why patient voices are becoming impossible to ignore in research, advocacy, and policy. The international symposium and roadmap point toward real momentum, but lasting change will require unprecedented collaboration across borders and specialties.

For more than three decades, Richard served patients in San Diego, California, where he dis-covered that true healing extends beyond the physical. It's rooted in trust. That understanding led him to explore communication and visibility, soon appearing on television networks such as ABC and PBS and in publications like Forbes. He realized that credibility, once verified through trusted media, multiplies credibility.Following a powerful inner calling, Richard closed his thriving practice and moved to Taos, New Mexico, to begin a new chapter: helping entrepreneurs and thought leaders expand their influence. As Vice President of Income Builders International/CEO Space, he mentored thou-sands in strategy, visibility, and sustainable growth, guiding professionals from “hidden to headline.”Today, as an executive with Top Talent Agency, Richard helps mission-driven clients earn the recognition they deserve, securing placements on ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX Business, and Bloom-berg, as well as features in major newspapers and magazines nationwide. His leadership has earned him the Top Talent Lifetime Achievement.

Law enforcement Explorer programs were created to mentor teens interested in policing. But decades of weak oversight created an environment where officers could manipulate that trust.

Visitmalesurvivor.orgStaying Safe in Youth Law Enforcement Programs:If you or your child is involved in a Police Explorer program – or any youth mentorship run by law enforcement – there are steps you can take to reduce risk and create safer boundaries.Ask direct questions. Who runs the program? What are the policies around texting, ride-alongs, and one-on-one interactions? Are there rules that limit contact between adult officers and minors outside of scheduled events?Insist on transparency. Reputable programs should have clear, written guidelines about communication, supervision, and conduct. Ask to see them.Monitor ride-alongs. Know who your child is riding with, how long they're gone, and what the reporting procedures are.Watch the tech. Officers or advisors should never be Snapchatting, DMing, or texting minors privately. Monitor app usage and discuss healthy boundaries.Get involved. Show up to meetings. Get to know the adults running the program. Your presence as a parent or guardian helps make the space safer for everyone.Keep communication open. Let your child know they can talk to you about anything -- especially if something makes them uncomfortable. Make it clear that they won't be in trouble for speaking up.Getting Help:If you or someone you know has experienced abuse in a Police Explorer or similar youth program, here's what to do:Believe them. If a child or teen discloses abuse, believe what they say. Stay calm, listen, and affirm that it's not their fault. Praise them for coming forward.Report it. If the child is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, contact your local police, sheriff's department, or state child protection agency. If you're concerned local police might have a conflict of interest, contact your state police, state attorney general, or the FBI.Document/preserve everything. Save messages, screenshots, call logs — anything that could help support the report.Seek emotional support: Abuse by a trusted adult is incredibly disorienting. You and/or your child deserve compassionate care from someone trained in trauma -- like a therapist, school counselor, or crisis line advocate.Connect with survivor resources. Many organizations offer specialized support for young people.Consult legal counsel: Some survivors explore civil legal action against individuals or institutions. An attorney familiar with institutional abuse cases can help assess your options.Red Flags: Signs of Grooming or Abuse in Explorer Programs:Abuse by authority figures often begins with grooming -- a gradual, often-subtle process that builds trust before violating it. Here are common warning signs in youth law enforcement programs:“Special” treatment. One teen is singled out for attention, gifts, mentorship, or exclusive opportunities not given to others.Excessive one-on-one contact. Repeated private ride-alongs, late-night messages, or invitations to hang out off-duty.Private communication. The adult uses personal texting apps, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, or other unmonitored channels to talk to a minor.Overstepping/blurring boundaries. Inappropriate compliments, jokes about relationships, or sharing personal details not appropriate for a mentor-mentee dynamic.Isolation. The adult discourages the teen from talking to others about their relationship or makes the teen feel responsible for their secrecy.Gaslighting or guilt. The adult blames the teen for misunderstandings, manipulates their emotions, or makes them feel they'll “ruin someone's life” if they speak out.Physical contact. Touch that's unnecessary, prolonged, or makes the teen uncomfortable -- even if it's framed as casual or accidental.

What really drives sustainable weight loss, and why do so many popular diets fail people long term?Ethan sits down with Tony Bloom to unpack the confusion, frustration, and misinformation surrounding modern diet culture. Drawing from personal experience and years in the fitness industry, Tony explains why no single diet is magic, how social media amplifies bad nutrition advice, and why communication and individualization matter more than dogma.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251218dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God. Isaiah 35:1-2 God Makes the Desert Bloom In northern Chile, along the Pacific coast, lies one of the driest places on earth. Known as the Atacama, it sometimes goes decades without measurable rainfall. It’s so barren that NASA uses it to simulate conditions on Mars. But in rare years, the Atacama Desert receives a few inches of rain, like it did a few months ago. Within days, something astonishing happens. Dormant seeds that have been buried in the dust for years suddenly burst into life. The desert floor becomes carpeted with a palette of pink, purple, yellow, and white. The transformation is so dramatic that satellites can detect the color change from space. That’s the picture Isaiah gives us. Maybe your life feels a little like that dry ground right now. Life feels empty, brittle, and you’re waiting for something to change. Isaiah reminds us that God hasn’t forgotten how to make things bloom. His Word and his Spirit still bring renewal, transformation, and life. God rains down his grace, forgiveness, and peace on dry and weary hearts. God is able to transform the dry and the forsaken into vibrant life. God turns death into life. Jesus Christ went from barren death and three days later to life and immortality. He broke through the grave as the firstfruits from the dead. He endured the scathing punishment for your sin. He bore the withering wrath you deserved. He did all this so that God’s glory might be brought to full flower. He did it so that you, too, can go from death to life. Prayer: Dear God, send your rain on the dry places in my life. Let your grace soak into the cracks of my heart. Remind me that your Son, Jesus, was parched so that I can spend an eternity in paradise with you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Orgasmic Birth Story Ep 170 Description: "Embodiment only happens if you have a body, so if you have a physical shell, and that physical shell is showing you signs. That physical shell can be sore, it can be tender, it can ache, it can also feel good and nurtured and soft and warm." —Lisa Strohdach What if the secret to a more joyful birth and life isn't about pushing harder, but about tuning in, letting go, and giving yourself permission to feel good? If you've ever felt disconnected from your body or doubted that pleasure belongs in pregnancy and parenting, you're not alone—there's a gentler, more powerful way forward. Consider this: your body already knows how to connect pleasure, rest, and birth, and it's time to trust that wisdom. This week, Debra sits with Lisa Strohdach, whose journey began with her own craving for self-pleasure and embodiment during pregnancy, which she later realized was key to her smooth breech home birth. This personal awakening inspired her to become a doula, yoga teacher, and retreat leader, now guiding others to cut through shame and confusion so that they can reconnect with their body and mind. Hear real talk on embodiment, oxytocin, masturbation, radical rest, simple breathwork, and how to create a supportive community—plus, get tips you can use right now to make pleasure and rest part of your everyday routine in this episode.

Mari Llewellyn, co-founder of Bloom Nutrition, joins The Failure Factor to share the unpolished story behind building a wellness brand that grew from $5 fitness PDFs into a multi-category company selling nationwide at Target, Walmart, and beyond. Mari didn't set out to be an entrepreneur. After hitting a personal rock bottom in college, she rebuilt her confidence through fitness, consistency, and keeping small promises to herself. That personal transformation sparked an online community—one built on vulnerability, free value, and trust—long before Bloom ever existed. In this conversation, Mari reflects on the scrappy early days of selling digital products through Instagram DMs, launching supplements without outside capital, learning publicly, and navigating the pressure of being both founder and face of the brand. She also opens up about missteps, including products she chose to walk away from, scaling beyond her personal identity, and what it's been like to run a fast-growing company while going through IVF and redefining her priorities. This episode is a grounded look at building something meaningful without waiting to feel "ready." Key Takeaways and Topics Rebuilding confidence after personal rock bottom Turning free content into sustainable business models Why she started with digital products, not physical ones Learning entrepreneurship without formal training The risks of being both founder and brand Starting before things feel "perfect" When to listen to feedback—and when to pivot Owning product mistakes publicly Scaling beyond a personal brand Navigating IVF while leading a company Letting seasons of life reshape leadership Why trust compounds faster than hype The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.
