Molly and Clarissa get real about the spoken and unspoken "rules" we inherit—from family, culture, religion, peers, and recovery spaces—and how those rules can quietly run our lives. They explore when structure is protective (especially early recovery) and when rigidity shrinks our world. The invitation: notice the rule, name whose voice it is, examine its intention, and rewrite it as a flexible, values-aligned boundary (a loving guardrail) that serves your recovery today. What we cover Invisible operating systems: How covert rules ("Don't cry in public," "Finish your plate," "Don't upset Dad," "Work before rest") get encoded as truth and shape choices, identity, and self-worth. Where rules come from: Family modeling, culture/diet/purity narratives, religion & tradition, media comparison loops, and past painful moments that birthed survival strategies. When rules help vs. harm: The cast-to-brace metaphor—early structure can be lifesaving; never taking the brace off becomes its own injury. Food-recovery example: "The kitchen is closed after dinner." Helpful as temporary scaffolding; harmful if it overrides true hunger, fuels all-or-nothing thinking, or becomes punishment. Language that frees: Swap "I can't" for "I choose not to (right now)." Replace rules with loving guardrails anchored in values, not fear. Meeting the Rebel: How the inner rebel shows up when we feel controlled, and how flexibility + permission reduces backlash and binge risk. Compassion over condemnation: Seeing the origin story of a rule reveals it was protective, not defective—which softens shame and opens space to change. Support matters: Borrowing a "prosthetic prefrontal cortex" from trusted people (group, therapist, friend) to reality-check and practice flexibility safely. Try this: a simple Rule Audit Spot it: What's one rule you notice yourself following today? Name the voice: Whose rule is it (family, program, culture, scared younger you)? Intention check: What safety or benefit was it trying to create? Does that need still exist? Cost check: How does it limit you now (shame, rigidity, disconnection from body needs)? Rewrite it: Old: "I can't eat after dinner." New: "I stop after dinner unless I'm truly hungry—then I have a planned, recovery-friendly snack without shame." Make it safer: Pre-plan options, text a support person, add a brief grounding before eating, pre-portion, and debrief after. Nuggets & reframes "Rules kept me safe then; values-based guardrails grow me now." "Different doesn't equal dangerous. It's okay if new feels wobbly." "Recovery should make life bigger, not smaller." "Permission reduces rebellion." "Thank you, old rule, for what you protected. I'm choosing something kinder now." Reflection questions for listeners Which rule in your life feels most rigid right now? What would a kinder, values-aligned version look like? If you replaced one "I can't" with "I choose not to—for now," what changes in your body and nervous system? Who are your go-to people to borrow perspective from when your threat system is loud?

Send us a textA single line in Genesis 6 says the thoughts of the human heart were only evil continually—and that God was grieved. From that stark diagnosis, we open a candid journey through divine sorrow, human responsibility, and the fierce mercy that waits before judgment falls. We look at why Scripture sometimes says God “repents,” how that language reflects our change rather than His, and why that matters for anyone trying to live clean in a culture that normalizes compromise.We walk through Noah's world where patience stretched for years while an ark rose as a sermon in wood. That delay was not permissiveness; it was invitation. Drawing on Peter's letters, we connect past and future: a flood that once cleansed, and a coming fire that will unveil what endures. The thread stays practical. Evil deeds begin as tolerated thoughts, so we talk about passing sentence quickly on what creeps into the imagination. Borrowing from the operating room, we treat sin like a tumor—addressed early, completely, and without negotiation.To make that daily, we lean on two prayers that train the heart. Psalm 19 asks God to keep us from presumptuous sins and make our words and meditations acceptable. Psalm 139 invites God to search and expose hurtful ways. Used with honesty, those prayers become a rhythm of confession and repentance that clears the fog and restores joy. The goal isn't grim perfectionism; it's freedom under a holy God whose character does not shift, even as our choices shift our experience of Him. Along the way, we challenge each other with simple, probing questions: Are we grieving the heart of God, or preaching righteousness like Noah? Are we waiting for a better moment, or taking the one we have?If this conversation helps you think and live with greater clarity, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review.

This week on the Squiggly Careers podcast, Helen and Sarah borrow brilliance from an unexpected source — the psychology of seats. Inspired by a conversation about how we choose where to sit, Helen talks about how your seating choices can shape the way you feel, behave, and influence others at work. From safe seats that help us feel in control to power positions in meetings and even virtual seating on video calls, this episode reveals how something as simple as your seat can affect confidence, inclusion, and collaboration. You'll leave with small, practical shifts to help you show up differently — and boost your impact and influence at work.Episode 506

What happens when two traditional "alpha males"—a former rugby league champion and an ex-infantryman—sit down for a raw, unfiltered conversation about modern masculinity? Prepare to be challenged. In this powerful episode from the archives, host Andy Lopata brings together Luke Ambler, founder of the transformative men's support network Andy's Man Club, and Dion Jensen, a New Zealand special forces veteran and mental health advocate. Born from environments where showing weakness was a liability, both men now champion vulnerability as the ultimate strength. This is not a comfortable, politically correct chat. It's a no-holds-barred exploration of the "toxic masculinity" debate, the role of men in a post-#MeToo world, and the crucial impact of leadership in shaping culture. From the changing rooms of professional sports to the front lines of conflict, Luke and Dion dissect why men struggle to open up and how leaders can create the psychological safety needed for genuine connection and high performance. This is the conversation every leader needs to hear about the unspoken dynamics in their teams. Key Takeaways Is the ultimate display of a leader's strength actually their willingness to be vulnerable first? What if "toxic masculinity" isn't a personality trait, but a product of the environments we fail to control? Why might the most effective champions for mental health be the very "alpha males" society often misunderstands? How can you create a culture of absolute safety where your team feels empowered to take off their "masks" and connect? Actionable Insights Lead with Vulnerability: In your next team meeting, be the first to share a professional challenge you're facing or a recent mistake you learned from. By modeling vulnerability, you grant permission for others to be open and build a foundation of trust. Define Your Environment's Rules: As a leader, you are the chief of your tribe. Explicitly define and communicate the non-negotiable cultural rules for your team (e.g., "We address conflict directly," "We celebrate each other's wins"). An undefined environment breeds toxicity. Engineer Hope into Your Check-ins: Borrowing from Andy's Man Club, don't just ask your team what's wrong. Make it a mandatory part of every one-on-one or team meeting to ask, “Tell me one positive from your week.” This actively builds a culture of hope and resilience.

In this episode of The Tech Trek, Amir sits down with Michi Kono, CTO of Garner Health, to unpack what it really takes to scale engineering leadership inside a fast growing startup. Michi shares how he balances structure and speed, why formalizing processes too early can slow innovation, and how “the Garner way” blends lessons from big tech with first principles thinking. This is a conversation about leadership maturity, cultural design, and building systems that evolve with your company's growth.Key Takeaways• Leadership scale comes from knowing when to formalize processes, not just how.• “Six months is never”: waiting on fixes usually means they will never happen.• Feedback is a gift, and it is on leaders to create the safety for it to flow upward.• Borrowing from big tech only works when you adapt the principles, not the playbook.• Engineering leaders should measure success by business outcomes, not just delivery speed.Timestamped Highlights01:46 The first signals Michi looked for when stepping into the CTO role03:49 Turning ad hoc collaboration into structured dependency management06:36 Why delaying operational fixes is a silent killer for scaling teams08:38 Building standards only when they solve real, visible problems12:13 The art of forecasting leadership hiring and team design14:54 Lessons borrowed from Meta, Stripe, and Capital One, and when not to use them17:31 Defining “the Garner way” through first principles20:59 Judging engineering performance through business impact25:00 Creating true psychological safety for feedback across all levelsA Line That Stuck“If we can't execute on the roadmap that lets us actually build a successful business, then I failed as a leader. There are no excuses.”Pro TipsWhen you inherit a growing engineering organization, start by mapping dependencies, not hierarchies. Clarity around how teams interact is more valuable than adding headcount too early.Call to ActionEnjoyed this episode?

Emil Gorgees' presentation at the JRE Summit, autumn 2025.

In this series, we explore one of H2O's core values—Community—through the lens of the book of Ephesians. This letter paints a rich picture of who the people of God are and what it means to live as one body in Christ. Borrowing insights from Henri Nouwen's Life of the Beloved, we'll reflect on what it means to be Chosen, Blessed, Broken, and Given—not just as individuals, but as a unified people shaped by grace. From God's decision to form a community of blessing, to the call to love, serve, and stand together against the powers of this world, Ephesians tells the story of a people brought together in Christ for the sake of the world. Join us as we rediscover the beauty, challenge, and purpose of being the people of God—together.

Episode 3319: Julien Saunders challenges the long-held belief that homeownership is the ultimate symbol of financial success, revealing the hidden costs, inefficiencies, and limitations it often creates. By examining oversized houses, expensive mortgages, underutilized space, and geographic restrictions, he encourages a more intentional approach, buy smaller, avoid unnecessary debt, and prioritize flexibility over blind adherence to the “American Dream.” Read along with the original article(s) here: https://richandregular.com/the-fallacy-of-homeownership/ Quotes to ponder: "If homeownership was such a sure shot to building wealth, wouldn't we know more wealthy people?"

In this AMA episode of the Rational Reminder Podcast, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti return to answer listener questions across a wide range of topics—from covered call ETFs and dividend tax credits to currency hedging, bond mechanics, leverage, and career reflections. They open with a striking quote from Harvard economist John Campbell on how markets cater to perceived benefits rather than real ones—a perfect setup for their recent discussions on the rise of covered call ETFs.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:59) John Campbell's quote on capitalism's tendency to meet perceived rather than rational needs—and how that perfectly describes the financial industry. (3:44) Covered calls as the perfect example: products that respond to investor demand for yield, not what's actually in their best interest. (4:49) Dan compares income-chasing in covered call ETFs to Apple's marketing genius—except in finance, the benefits flow mostly to issuers, not investors. (5:48) Why dividend bias was relatively harmless, but the covered call craze is not—and how new ETFs “multiply like rabbits.” (7:46) Ben's analysis: in every example studied, covered call investors ended up with less wealth than those holding the underlying equities. (8:13) The hidden trade-off: holding covered call ETFs is like keeping 25–30% of your portfolio in cash for a decade. (9:33) Lighter interlude: Dan teases Ben about his lentil (and later cabbage) lunches. (9:59) First AMA question: Are domestic dividend tax credits already priced into stock valuations? (Short answer: partially, depending on investor composition.) (12:13) Why even if tax benefits are “priced in,” Canadians with favorable tax rates still come out ahead. (15:58) Hedging currencies in commodity economies like Canada and Australia—when it helps, when it hurts, and why there's no perfect answer. (18:48) Dan explains why unhedged portfolios can actually be less volatile for Canadians and why most hedging is imprecise and costly in practice. (20:03) Behavioral perspective: splitting the difference between hedged and unhedged can be the “strategy of least regret.” (21:06) Bonds demystified—why falling prices during rising rates affect funds and individual bonds equally. (22:22) Understanding duration: bond ETFs are designed to stay at a target maturity, while individual bonds age toward zero duration. (26:03) How rising yields actually improve financial plans by boosting future expected returns. (29:08) Choosing the right bond fund duration based on your time horizon and liabilities. (33:39) Are recent bond losses an anomaly? Ben and Dan explain how decades of falling rates created unrealistic expectations. (36:21) The role of unexpected rate changes in bond volatility—and why central banks don't control long-term yields. (38:01) Market-cap weighting: why it remains the most defensible way to allocate across countries and sectors. (41:48) What's changed their thinking after six years of Rational Reminder—from Scott Cederberg's asset allocation data to the behavioral power of homeownership. (45:13) The Horizons/Global X ETF debate: how swap-based, corporate-class structures create tax efficiency—and why that efficiency could vanish. (50:42) Why PWL avoids these products: potential hidden tax liabilities and lack of transparency for clients. (54:31) Borrowing to invest: Ben outlines why leverage works in theory—but Dan explains why most investors shouldn't touch it. (57:25) New “modest leverage” ETFs (125% exposure) as a more behavioral-friendly version of borrowing to invest. (1:00:36) Fulfillment and frustration in finance: helping people achieve peace of mind vs. seeing deception still rampant in the industry. (1:03:09) Five years of Vanguard's all-in-one ETFs (like VEQT): how they've delivered exactly what they promised and reshaped DIY investing in Canada. (1:07:47) Why these “one-ticket” portfolios remain the biggest innovation in Canadian investing—and why global diversification matters more than ever. (1:08:50) Revisiting bonds in retirement: what to expect when they don't offset stock volatility, and how to rethink risk management beyond yield-chasing.   Links From Today's Episode: Meet with PWL Capital: https://calendly.com/d/3vm-t2j-h3p Rational Reminder on iTunes — https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582.

Cole Howe - Borrowing Your Faith by West Coast Baptist College

This week, Vee and Elle unpack everything couples should talk about before stepping into a shared play space—from emotional boundaries to desires, jealousy, and how to reconnect afterward, using a conversation framework they learned on an ISTA retreat.  From collars and rituals to new relationship energy (NRE), aka limerence, and the messy middle between fantasy and reality—Vee goes deep on her experience. Whether you're new to the lifestyle, playing with a new partner, or redefining your relationship agreements, this episode is packed with real talk, practical tools, and deeply personal moments.RDBSM (Relationship, Desires, Boundaries, Sexual Health, Meaning). (00:25)R: Relationship: Vee navigates a new Monogamish relationship with Mister A. Dom/sub dynamics and wearing collars to denote ownership and ritual. (6:13)Conscious Relating: redefining your relationships as they fit into your life. (7:26)D: Desires: playing together with another couple or a female unicorn. (13:31)B: Boundaries: the idea of men's cum as ownership leading to wanting to be there for your partner's orgasm. (13:57)NRE (New Relationship Energy) vs Love: WTF is limerence? And how do you know when it's evolved from new relationship energy to actual true romantic love? Instability vs stability. (17:14)Boundaries contd: Not playing separately, keeping play and connection in the container of the scene or the play party, and then “keep it in the group text”. Locking in and taking the performative aspect out of exhibitionism. (20:37)M: Meaning: creating a container to explore safely within the time boundaries of the party. (26:30)Traffic Light System: What to do in the moment if you're feeling activated or jealous? Borrowing from BDSM scenes to have a safe word or traffic light system in more traditional scenes. (29:15)A: Aftercare: going home together, reconnecting, and talking over breakfast? (33:13)Post-Party: Back to School theme and showing ownership by wearing a collar. (34:29)Wax Play experience: performing for your man when you know he's watching. (37:38)Connecting with your partner first: Vee cums for the first time at a play party! (42:44)Mixed feelings: Watching your partner fuck someone else. What a guy should say when the female is unsure about playing. (45:42)Popping their cherry: Vee and Mister A play with another couple for the first time. (51:08)Aftercare and debriefing the next day.

William Glasgall, Penn IUR Fellow and Volcker Alliance Public Finance Adviser, Susan Wachter, Co-Director of Penn IUR and Wharton professor, and our expert panel address the record-shattering boom in state and local borrowing even in the face of federal spending cuts and pressure on budgets. How long the boom will continue in the face of conflicting federal, state, and local priorities will be the big question for investors and governments over the coming year. Panelists include: • Matt Fabian, President, Municipal Market Analytics • Fitzroy Lee, Deputy Chief Financial Officer and Chief Economist, Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) • Vikram Rai, Portfolio Manager and Macro Trader, First New York and former Head of Municipal Markets Strategy at Wells Fargo • Sheila Weinberg, Founder and CEO, Truth in Accounting and • Mark Zandi, Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics. NOTABLE QUOTES Notable Quotes -Mark Zandi: “This is the first time I can recall where all those indicators are screaming, we've got a problem.” -Matt Fabian: “The Muni market has a chance to be part of the solution to make it not as bad as it might otherwise be.” -Sheila Weinberg: “The strength in the bond market is impressive but potentially misleading…this heightens the risk to investors and to taxpayers.” -Vikram Rai: “I never really believed the Fed was independent. I think there is an element of politics that goes on there… Once the President has control of the Fed, they can maneuver the yield curve.” -Fitzroy Lee: “The downsizing would cost the District about $300 million in revenue losses per year, about 3% of our own source revenue.” -Mark Zandi: “For every percentage point increase in the effective tariff rate, it adds about 10 basis points to inflation…and reduces GDP by 7-8 basis points.” -Matt Fabian: “On the demand side, the Muni market has been functioning fantastically…So long as nominal yields are high enough, individuals will continue to buy the bond.”

Coffee, rain, and a table full of half-built ideas set the stage for a candid deep dive into how artists actually move work forward in our second conversation at Poolhaus studio. We trade the comfort of endless polishing for a stubborn rule—get to the next step sooner—and unpack how that one shift stops overworking, preserves strong moments, and helps a real body of work take shape. Along the way, we turn useful decisions into mantras, write them on the wall, and repeat them when stamina dips. The goal isn't perfection; it's momentum with intention.We also open the door on critique: how to build a trusted brain trust, weight feedback from mentors versus peers, and curate with clear eyes when your favorite new experiment ranks dead last. Likes are not the art world, and honest notes from people who know your context can be the difference between a scattered show and a resonant one. Confidence matters too—not as posturing, but as fluency in your own language. We talk about answering tough questions from curators, claiming simple choices with conviction, and studying both your work and the person making it.Life intrudes. A recent loss in the recovery community brings the conversation to grief, meaning, and the privilege of making anyway. Borrowing strength from Nick Cave's reflections on grief as an exalted, remaking state, we choose boldness over hesitation and practice that isn't conditional on perfect circumstances. Stock your studio with wisdom like winter coats: books, notes, mentors, and sentences that steady you when the weather turns. Then finish the damn thing, explore the dancing sparks, and move to the next with courage and care.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with an artist who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more makers can find it. What mantra keeps you moving?Send us a message - we would love to hear from you!Make sure to follow us on Instagram here:@justmakeartpodcast @tynathanclark @nathanterborg

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery interviews Farah Ghafoor about her poetry collection, Shadow Price (House of Anansi, 2025), which was longlisted for the 2025 Toronto Book Awards. Borrowing its title from a finance term—“the estimated price of a good or service for which no market price exists”—Shadow Price is a stunning debut that examines the idea of value in a world that burns under our capitalist lens. What gives life value? How do we serve existing societal structures that determine its cost? Employing both surreal and documentary imagery, Farah Ghafoor's arresting collection articulates how narrative is used to revise the past and manipulate the future, ultimately forming our present-day climate crisis. Interrogating personal complicity, generational implications, and the shock of our collective disregard for a world that sustains every living thing, Shadow Price captures the complexities of living and writing as a young poet born in the year that “climate change denial” first appeared in print. Mourning the loss of Earth's biodiversity, from insects to mammoths to trees, these introspective poems invite us to consider the risks and rewards of loving what may vanish in our lifetime. Shadow Price charges readers to contemplate their power and purpose in the world today, recognizing that there is hope even in the belly of the beast. About Farah Ghafoor:  Based in Tkaranto (Toronto), Farah Ghafoor is the author of Shadow Price (House of Anansi, 2025). A finalist for the Toronto Book Awards, selections of Shadow Price won the E.J. Pratt Medal and Prize in Poetry, and were finalists for the CBC Poetry Prize and the Far Horizons Award.

Send us a textToday's topic is Borrowing Love in Recovery ❤️ Let Us Love You Until You Can Love Yourself with Michael M

In this series, we explore one of H2O's core values—Community—through the lens of the book of Ephesians. This letter paints a rich picture of who the people of God are and what it means to live as one body in Christ. Borrowing insights from Henri Nouwen's Life of the Beloved, we'll reflect on what it means to be Chosen, Blessed, Broken, and Given—not just as individuals, but as a unified people shaped by grace. From God's decision to form a community of blessing, to the call to love, serve, and stand together against the powers of this world, Ephesians tells the story of a people brought together in Christ for the sake of the world. Join us as we rediscover the beauty, challenge, and purpose of being the people of God—together.

Financial blunders aren't new. Consider this: the web portal Excite once passed on buying Google for just $750,000. Today, Google's parent company is worth over $2 trillion. That, my friends, is a legendary missed opportunity.Most of us won't miss out on trillions, but we've all made financial mistakes. The good news is that God's Word offers wisdom for recovery and direction when we stumble.Learning from FailureScripture reminds us that falling isn't the end for those who walk with God:“For the righteous falls seven times and rises again” (Proverbs 24:16).“For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you” (Psalm 86:5).“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God … and it will be given him” (James 1:5).Failure can be a stepping stone when we let God guide us forward. With that encouragement, here are 10 financial mistakes to avoid—and biblical wisdom to help you course-correct.1. Borrowing from Your 401(k)It feels like “borrowing from yourself,” but it often masks overspending or debt. While repaying, you may miss out on employer matches and the compounding growth that comes with them. Worse, leaving your job could trigger taxes and penalties.2. Claiming Social Security Too EarlyStarting at 62, benefits are reduced by up to 30%—for life. If possible, wait until full retirement age (or beyond) for a larger monthly check that lasts as long as you do.3. Only Paying the Minimum on Credit CardsA $5,000 balance at 20% interest can take nearly a decade to pay off with minimum payments, costing more than $8,000 in interest. Pay extra and utilize debt payoff strategies, such as the snowball or avalanche method.4. Delaying Retirement SavingsCompound interest rewards the early saver. Even small contributions in your 20s can grow into a significant nest egg. Don't panic if you're starting late—just start now.5. Overextending Yourself for Your KidsHelping with college, weddings, or down payments shouldn't jeopardize your own financial stability. Generosity is good, but if you sacrifice retirement now, you may depend on your kids later.6. Going It Alone Without Wise CounselMany sell low during downturns because they lack guidance. Proverbs 15:22 says, “Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.” Seek out wise, faith-based financial advice.7. Co-Signing a LoanScripture warns: “One who lacks sense gives a pledge and puts up security in the presence of his neighbor” (Proverbs 17:18). About 40% of co-signers end up paying the loan themselves. Be wise in your generosity.8. Quitting School Too SoonEducation—whether a four-year degree, trade school, or certification—equips you with marketable skills. Think of it as an investment in your future, not just a cost.9. Buying a TimeshareTimeshares are marketed as affordable luxury, but often come with steep fees, little flexibility, and low resale value. They're rarely the “investment” they claim to be.10. Falling for ScamsScammers prey on fear, urgency, and greed. Whether through fake calls, emails, or investment pitches, their goal is always the same—to separate you from your money. Be vigilant and discerning.Walking Forward in FreedomJesus warned His disciples: “I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves” (Matthew 10:16).Wise stewardship isn't about never failing—it's about learning, leaning on God's wisdom, and moving forward faithfully. With His help, you can recover from mistakes and grow into a more faithful steward of His resources.———————————————————————————————————————At FaithFi, we believe money is a tool to advance God's Kingdom.

Humanism promises progress and freedom but ultimately repeats the rebellion that began in the Garden, placing faith in human potential while pushing God aside. It borrows values such as equality, justice, and dignity from Christianity, yet redefines them without His authority, resulting in shifting standards that cannot stand. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar emphasize that history shows every attempt to build utopia apart from God ends in destruction, no matter how noble the intentions. They warn that even conservatism can turn into humanism when policies or politics become the focus instead of Christ. Believers are called to remain grounded in God's Word, intentionally disciple their children, and live out the gospel daily. Ultimately, true freedom and security are not found in man-made ideals but only in surrendering to Christ, whose reign offers lasting hope.Send us a textThanks for listening!
