Welcome back to the Women Petpreneurs Presents Book Club In this week's special book club episode, we're diving into the "Surrounded by" series by Thomas Erikson. Each of us picked a different book from the lineup— Surrounded by Narcissists, Surrounded by Energy Vampires, and Surrounded by Psychopaths—to unpack what we learned and how it relates to both our professional and personal lives. We'll explore which book is the best starting point, why understanding personality types can transform the way we interact with people (and pets!), and share honest thoughts about which recommendations are best for the grooming industry. Whether you've read the series or are just curious about decoding human behavior, settle in for a candid, insightful discussion that promises a few laughs and plenty of real talk.

Highly sensitive nervous systems take in far more than a fair share, and overwhelm slowly becomes a groove we practice until it feels like who we are. I keep coming back to one idea: overwhelm is an invitation, and every invitation can be declined. The moment we stop treating ourselves as overwhelm's victim, simple affirmations can reprogram those old patterns and return us to the peace that is our birthright.

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell chapter 22 "A Blow and Its Consequences", narrated by Isaac BirchallSubscribe on YT or Join the Book Club on Patreon and support me as an independent creator :D⁠https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOFfvo05ElM96CmfsGsu3g/join⁠Summary:Margaret waits for a long time before anyone of the Thornton family comes to see her. Fanny eventually walks in apologising for the wait and tells her that her brother is with his new Irish workmen and women in the factory, trying to reassure them before the strikes get worse. Mrs. Thornton then comes in and looks incredibly stern. Mrs. Thornton doesn't seem to fully listen to Margaret when she asks for the waterbed, when she does respond, it is in response to the crashing sound of many bodies against the gates. John soon comes in and the crowd reacts with bloodlust as they hear Mr. Thornton's voice in his house. Margaret fears that she is a coward but forgets herself and only feels a deep sympathy. He tells his mother and the maid to get upstairs to safety. Margaret is watching at the window and then turns to Mr. Thornton to ask where his imported workers are. He responds that they are in the factory, but that it is not the workers that the crowd wants, but himself. His mother asks how long until the soldiers should arrive, he responds that it should still be 20 minutes. They shut the windows and then a sudden stillness arises. They stop and listen, the crowd is pushing with all of their might against the gate, and it eventually gives in, followed by the crowd. Mrs. Thornton and Fanny get upstairs and Margaret refuses to go with them.The faces of angry men are everywhere in the yard, and Margaret recognises the face of Mr. Boucher. As the crowd sees Mr. Thornton, they erupt into a beastly roar, startling even Mr. Thornton's cool reserve. He tells Margaret that they need only to wait 5 minutes more and the soldiers will be there. Margaret calls him out for his attitude, tells him to go and face these men like a man with kindness. A dark cloud comes across his face and he goes, only asking Margaret to bar the door behind him. The men in the yard look like savage beasts; they have children at home, like Boucher, and can't stand the thought of foreigners taking away their bread. Margaret feels like the crowd will reach its breaking point in a moment and she rushes outside, after she sees men reaching for projectiles. The men still their arms as they see this girl run out and place herself between them and their enemy. She tries to tell the men to calm themselves, but her voice dies away. Thornton moves from behind her. A man calls out asking if the Irish will be sent home and when Thornton replies that he will not send them back, the crowd explodes. Margaret tries to shield Thornton from the men's incoming projectiles, but he shakes her off. The first misses, the second flings a stone towards their mark hitting instead, Margaret causing Thornton to react. The men are silent while he speaks, watching the blood trickle down Margaret's head. It seems to knock sense into the men, and they start to back away. Mr. Thornton walks into the crowd, calling on the men to attack him if they are not cowards, but they leave, defeated. Thornton rushes to Margaret and carries her into the house. He calls for his mother to take care of her and he goes to check on his Irish workers. Mrs. Thornton goes to get a doctor...SEO stuff I don't want to do. Elizabeth Gaskell's classic, "North and South" sees Margaret Hale's live uprooted as her family moves to the north of England. Initially disgusted by the ugliness of the industrial town of Milton, Margaret develops a strong sense of social justice after seeing the poverty and suffering of local mill workers.

In the first edition of the Conspirituality Book Club, Derek dives into Food Intelligence: The Science of How Food Both Nourishes and Harms Us by Julia Belluz and Kevin Hall, PhD. First, he looks at how RFK Jr and Jay Bhattacharya forced Hall out of his nutrition research position at the NIH in 2025. Then he covers some of the book's most intriguing findings, including: Why most people don't have "slow metabolism" Why most of us don't actually need more protein The origins of the wellness industry's fascination with products over science Why ultra-processed foods are actually dangerous (it's not what MAHA claims) The importance of calorie absorption Those microbiome tests are more scam than science Show Notes Food Intelligence: The Science of How Food Both Nourishes and Harms Us Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Trent and Jody dig into what leadership actually means, why being a good person does not automatically make someone a good leader, and why so many organizations promote people without ever teaching them how to lead.They also talk about self-awareness, emotional intelligence, parenting, hard conversations, imposter syndrome, building trust, setting expectations, and why the first person you have to lead is the person in the mirror.If you are preparing for Air Force Special Warfare, serving in the military, leading a team, raising kids, or trying to become a better human before chasing a bigger title, this one is worth your time.Jody Fletcher's book, Good Humans Make Great Leaders, releases July 14 and is available for preorder on Amazon.Learn more about Jody:GoodHumanGreatLeader.comTrain with us:OperatorTrainingSummit.comSupport the show:OnesReady.comChapters:00:00 - Ones Ready Intro01:06 - Tasty Gains and Operator Training Summit Updates02:13 - Welcome Back Jody Fletcher03:09 - Jody's Background as a SARC and Command Master Chief04:24 - Making Fun of Marines and Air Force Guys05:21 - Writing Good Humans Make Great Leaders06:51 - Formal Education, Military Schoolhouses, and Learning How to Learn08:26 - Why Pipeline Academics Matter10:07 - Hybrid Publishing and Getting the Book Finished13:08 - Good Humans Make Great Leaders Release Date15:00 - Who the Book Is Written For17:24 - Editing, Structure, and Building a Better Book18:00 - Trent's Problem With the Word “Leadership”19:21 - Leading the Person in the Mirror21:14 - Leadership vs. Management23:51 - Defining Good Humans and Great Leaders25:00 - Selection, Teamwork, and Emotional Intelligence27:06 - Authentic Leadership vs. Repeating Leadership Books28:00 - Superpowers, Compliments, and Imposter Syndrome30:03 - The Voice in Your Head and the Skull Gym32:41 - Doing Hard Things That Are Not Physical34:00 - Parents, Recruiters, and Letting Kids Grow37:26 - Teaching Kids Confidence Through Reps39:00 - Avoiding Dependency as a Leader or Parent40:45 - Accepting Risk and Letting People Learn42:33 - What Great Leadership Feels Like43:14 - The Best Leaders Jody Ever Served With44:53 - Good Humans Who Are Bad Leaders46:01 - EAT: Expectations, Accountability, Advocacy, and Trust47:00 - Different Leadership Styles and Clear Expectations50:00 - Dynamic Leadership and Shifting Gears51:45 - Admitting When You Are Wrong53:00 - The Princess Story and Owning Mistakes56:13 - Practicing Accountability With Your Kids56:58 - Where to Find Good Humans Make Great Leaders58:06 - Jody's Leadership Resources and Flashcards59:04 - Book Club, Final Thoughts, and Wrap-UpSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel...

Ro Skelton speaks to Emily Everett about her essay “Naow's Boutique,” which appears in The Common's fall issue. The essay explores Ro's time living and working in Dakar, where she formed a friendship in her neighborhood that eventually led to a sense of community, and then a community garden, and then a lifelong friendship.

Amy Griffin's bestselling memoir The Tell was celebrated by Oprah and Reese Witherspoon as a powerful story of recovered memories, trauma, and healing, until a lawsuit was filed more recently. In this episode, we discuss The New York Times stories on the topic, and unpack the controversy surrounding Griffin. Griffin's attorney has defended her and called the lawsuit bogus, saying “we look forward to exposing these meritless claims in court, as well as the deeply flawed New York Times reporting that is at the center of it.

CannCon and Ashe in America wrap Chapter 5 and charge straight into Chapter 6 of G. Edward Griffin's The Creature from Jekyll Island, and the bailout game goes fully global. The World Bank's humanitarian branding evaporates completely as Griffin walks through country after country: Tanzania, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, all self-sufficient before the loans arrived, all economically wrecked after. Chapter 6 then lays out the international bailout game in four clean rules and names it what it is: a mechanism to perpetuate debt forever until nations surrender their monetary sovereignty to a world central bank. The Council on Foreign Relations gets formally introduced as the brain trust behind all of it, with members on record calling for the deliberate erosion of American wealth, sovereignty, and living standards. NAFTA, GATT, the EU, and the WTO get exposed as architecture for world government, not trade. And a Reagan cabinet meeting confirms what everyone suspected: nobody believed the loans would ever be repaid. The only thing that mattered was protecting the banks.

(39:15) Also, natural food dye in a generally unhealthy food doesn't make it any better for you. The NOVA definitions of ultra-processed foods originated in Brazil.

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell chapter 21 "The Dark Night", narrated by Isaac BirchallSubscribe on YT or Join the Book Club on Patreon and support me as an independent creator :D⁠https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOFfvo05ElM96CmfsGsu3g/join⁠Summary:Margaret and her father walk home from the Thornton residence, feeling very happy. They talk together a little about the strike and Mr. Hale suggests that Thornton is anxious about the situation. When they get home, all joy they were feeling is ripped away from them by a look of horror on Dixon's face. They enter and find Dr. Donaldson taking care of Mrs. Hale. She has had a fit and is very, very unwell, and has been administered a sedative. Mr. Hale is finally informed of the state of his wife's health and is distraught by the terrifying news. He initially upset with Margaret for keeping it from him, but the Doctor tells him that it is he that is to blame, and not Margaret. The doctor tells Mr Hale to go to bed and leave the family alone. Everyone refuses to go to bed, so Dixon, Margaret, and her father watch over Mrs. Hale. Dixon eventually nods off, but Margaret watches carefully over her mother and responds to her father's questions. After her father goes to sleep too, Margaret reflects on Harley Street and Helstone, two places that she wishes she could go back to, to get away from the tragedies of the North. In the morning, it seems like the previous night was all but a dream. Mrs. Hale doesn't know how ill she was and is shocked to see Dr. Donaldson so early. After a few days, she gets permission to return to the drawing room, but that night, she becomes feverish again. Dr. Donaldson says that it is a reaction to the medicine that he has used and recommends that they try to find a waterbed for Mrs. Hale, stating that Mrs. Thornton has one she could maybe lend and asks Margaret if she could make the trip to Marlborough street to ask for it. In the afternoon, Margaret starts walking to the Thornton's, her head full of thoughts about her mother's health. She doesn't notice anything different about the streets, but around her, many people are heaving, and talking, and listening, while she moves through the streets. When she gets to Marlborough street however, she starts to feel the oppressive atmosphere, and as she gets to the Thornton's, the crowd starts to make its way towards the Factory. She is cautiously let in by the porter and is rushed into the house.SEO stuff I don't want to do. Elizabeth Gaskell's classic, "North and South" sees Margaret Hale's live uprooted as her family moves to the north of England. Initially disgusted by the ugliness of the industrial town of Milton, Margaret develops a strong sense of social justice after seeing the poverty and suffering of local mill workers.

New things are everywhere—and they're causing us to disconnect from what we value most. In a world that constantly tells us that new is better, our relentless pursuit of material wealth is costing us money, time and happiness. Worse, when we define ourselves by what we own rather than who we are, we reduce our lives to a single, superficial dimension. On today's show, New York Times journalist Eric Athas offers advice for stepping away from the cycle of constant buying, saying no to shallowness, and discovering the right kind of “new” in our lives. Here's a preview: [8:00] We're wired to become bored the familiar, and other truths to newness [16:00] Consumption has costs! (In fact, it robs us of our finite attention, dilutes our capacity for genuine enjoyment, and misaligns our pursuit of happiness.) [26:00] Musings on the ways in which overconsumption leads to superficiality [37:00] Put down the trinket!
