Send us Fan MailThe loudest room in a school can be the most honest one. We're talking about the cafeteria, that daily moment when kids carry a tray into a crowded space and have to answer a deceptively hard question: where do I sit, and what does that choice say about me?We map the “ecosystem” almost every lunchroom develops; the confident table with its hidden hierarchy, the quiet table adults tend to overlook, the newcomers taking a social test with no study guide, the floaters who may be flexible or just searching for a home base, and the students who sit alone by choice or because exclusion taught them not to try. Along the way, we share four small stories that prove kindness isn't a poster on the wall; it's survival, courage, and real community building.Then we get practical with four tools you can use immediately at school, at work, or anywhere people cluster and sort themselves: the one-minute scan, the brave invite (“Hey, you can sit with us if you want”), the kindness exit when subtle bullying shows up, and a better after-school check-in that opens the door to your kid's real social world. If you care about empathy, inclusion, anti-bullying, and helping kids build social confidence, this is a simple guide to doing the next kind thing on purpose.Subscribe for more stories and tools like this, share the episode with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find the show.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

In a world that often pressures us to conform, the true essence of greatness lies in embracing our authentic selves. Each of us is a unique tapestry woven from experiences, dreams, and passions. To live authentically is to honor this tapestry, to present ourselves to the world without fear or reservation. It requires bravery—a courage that inspires us to break free from societal expectations and to express who we truly are.Being authentic means daring to voice your thoughts and beliefs, even when they challenge the status quo. It's about recognizing that your perspective is valid and valuable. When you speak your truth (even if your voice shakes), you not only empower yourself but also inspire others to do the same. Each time you choose honesty over approval from others, you create a cascading effect of authenticity, encouraging those around you to step into their own light.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Known as "the Bravest of the Brave," Ney earned immortal fame by commanding the French Army's rearguard under some of the harshest conditions in military history. Facing relentless Russian attacks, freezing temperatures, starvation, and collapsing morale, Ney repeatedly held off enemy forces to buy precious time for the remnants of the Grande Armée.Discover how Ney's leadership, courage, and tactical skill helped save thousands of French soldiers during the retreat from Moscow. Learn about the battles of Krasnoi, the crossing of the Dnieper River, and the dramatic moments that transformed Ney into one of Napoleon's most celebrated marshals.Whether you're interested in Napoleonic Wars history, military leadership, battlefield tactics, or the life of Marshal Ney, this episode examines one of the most remarkable rearguard campaigns ever conducted.Topics Covered:Marshal Michel NeyNapoleon's Retreat from MoscowThe French Invasion of Russia (1812)Battle of KrasnoiGrande ArméeNapoleonic WarsMilitary LeadershipRearguard Actions in HistoryRussian Campaign of 1812Other famous rearguards of Ney's#Napoleon #MarshalNey #NapoleonicWars #MilitaryHistory #FrenchEmpire #GrandeArmee #NapoleonBonaparte #HistoryPodcast #BattleOfKrasnoi
Send us Fan Mail We are taught to chase “good writing” and avoid saying the wrong thing, but what if the clumsy, imperfect line is the one that actually helps you breathe again? Therapist and poet Margaret Bryden joins us to make a grounded case for bad poetry as a mental health tool, not a performance. When anxiety spikes or depression flattens your voice, polished words can feel impossible. Margaret explains why that is normal, and why writing badly on purpose can create safety instead of shame. We dig into what poetry really does in the body and mind: it contains big feelings, turns vague fear into something you can see, and makes room for ambiguity and contradiction. That is especially important for trauma and PTSD, where fragmentation and feeling unsafe can take over. Margaret shares how expressive writing and poetry therapy can support catharsis, integration, and connection, including what changes when a person shares a poem with a trusted listener and receives validation. We also talk about the cultural myth of poetry as elite and inaccessible and why everyday language is often the most honest language. You will leave with a simple practice you can try tomorrow: five to ten quiet minutes, a few slow breaths, and one question to start the page, plus a way to handle perfectionism when the inner critic tries to take the pen. If you want a gentle, practical approach to journaling, creative writing for mental health, and emotional processing that does not require talent, this conversation is for you.

What if the things we say and do to support our bravest are actually the things putting them at risk?Dr. Shauna Springer is back. A Harvard-trained psychologist and Chief Psychologist at Stella Mental Health, she's spent over a decade as a trusted “doc” to warfighters and first responders. Her new book, Fallout: 10 Common Beliefs That Kill Our Bravest and the Truths That Can Save Them, dismantles the well-intentioned myths quietly costing lives — from suicide awareness campaigns to the idea that resilience can simply be taught. In this episode, Shauna aka Doc joins Jon and Will to dig into why connection beats every tool and treatment, why grief and trauma need completely different approaches, and the innovative biological treatment changing how PTSD is healed.IN THIS EPISODE:1. Why suicide awareness campaigns can increase risk instead of preventing it2. The difference between grief, trauma, and moral injury — and why they need different treatment3. Elasticity vs. resilience: a better framework for sustainable peak performance4. Why suicide often feels selfless, not selfish, to a warrior — and how that changes prevention5.

What if the bravest thing you ever do isn't crossing the finish line—but taking the very first step? In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb explores the quiet, often unseen moment that begins every journey of healing, growth, and transformation. Before the new habits, the new career, the therapy session, the workout, or the life changes, there is a decision—a moment of courage when we choose that the life we've been living is no longer the life we want. Whether your journey began because of trauma, burnout, grief, anxiety, a health challenge, or simply a deep knowing that something had to change, this episode is a reminder that every path starts with one brave choice. You'll discover: Why the decision to change is often the bravest step of all. The connection between trauma, identity, and transformational change. How authenticity is less about becoming someone new and more about coming home to yourself. Why every beginner deserves compassion—not comparison. A reminder that wherever you are on your journey, you belong. The first step isn't about having all the answers. It's about believing you're worth taking the journey. If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available. In the U.S., you can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. It is available 24/7 and free and confidential. Follow, subscribe, and leave a review to support PTSD and Beyond. Join us on Ko-Fi to help keep these conversations going.

Fear had a pretty good run the last few years. It kicked our butts, didn't it? But I'm over it, and I think it's time we take back the territory we lost. That's why I'm starting a new 5 episode series called "Bravest Summer Ever." In this first episode, I'm breaking down three reasons why we need to talk about bravery right now: fear had its moment and it's enough already, bravery is the only thing every successful person has in common (it's the skill that unlocks every other), and most importantly, you can learn it. Bravery isn't something you're born with or without. It's a skill anyone can master. I'll share definitions of bravery, from "motion despite emotion" to "putting miles between you and your desire to quit," and give you your first homework assignment: What does brave mean to you? Over the next few weeks, you're going to become braver than you've ever been.

The Treasurer Jim Chalmers has delivered his 2026 budget, unveiling a new tax cut and some of the most significant tax changes in decades. Delivered as war impacts the economy, it's being sold as a budget that addresses the growing inequality between generations, with the treasurer declaring Labor is on the hard road of reform. But will changes to taxes on property investors and family trusts really level the playing field?The ABC's chief business correspondent Ian Verrender joins Sam Hawley in the budget lock-up in Sydney.

Send us Fan MailThere's a season in life where everything you've been leaning on just... isn't there anymore. The neighbor moves. The sister takes a second job. The husband travels. The parents are across the ocean. And you're standing in the middle of what feels like a very loud, very clear message that you are on your own. What do you do with that?Angela and I have been circling this topic from a few different directions over the past several months, through disappointment, expectations, friendships, and this week it all converged in one conversation. Stoicism, Mel Robbins' Let Them Theory, Tara Brach's Radical Acceptance. Three different sources, same essential truth: there is a kind of freedom that only becomes available when you stop spending energy trying to control what you were never going to be able to control anyway. And the equally important flip side, that accepting what someone else does is not the same as condoning it. In this episode, we dig into:Why acceptance takes more courage than fighting, and why it's not the same as giving upThe "let them / let me" two-step, and why skipping the second part is where things go sidewaysHow stoicism has been quietly showing up in Angela's life for years, especially after a trip to AthensThe connection between forgiving someone and not drinking poison yourselfHow to set limits on someone without needing to be furious to do itSami shares the Christmas story (yes, that Christmas story, two separate years, no gift, being sent to find it herself) and what finally shifted when she stopped trying to orchestrate a different outcome. Angela gets into the roots of stoicism, Marcus Aurelius, Ryan Holiday, and why the ancient philosophers weren't telling us to feel nothing, they were telling us to stop white-knuckling every wave. The image we kept coming back to: you don't get less battered in the storm by having a smaller boat. You get a bigger one.You can influence people. You can guide them, persuade them, set limits with them, and reach agreements with them. What you cannot do is control what they do. And the most exhausting part of trying is that it doesn't work — and it costs you, every single time. This episode is permission to put that particular weight down. Not because it doesn't matter. Because you matter more.Press play. Especially if you've been white-knuckling something lately and you're starting to suspect it's wearing you out.Mentioned in this episode:The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins: https://www.melrobbins.com/book/the-let-them-theory/Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach: https://www.tarabrach.com/books/radical-acceptance/The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan HolidayThe Daily Stoic by The 3rd Annual Family Business Forum is May 19 in Springdale, AR.

We're back, and this week we've got everything — a 295-million-year-old prehistoric butt, a zebra named Zeus who absolutely refuses to be anyone's livestock, and the official holiday we call “Blah Blah Day”. We also dig into a prediction market genius who made $300K betting on Biden pardons, and the glorious chaos of marshmallows raining from helicopters in Michigan.Then we get into the deep history of Nintendo — from handmade playing cards in 1889 Kyoto, to a brief and chaotic detour into running a taxi company and love hotels, to the kid who created Donkey Kong and accidentally invented Mario, to the legendary implosion of the Nintendo-Sony deal that accidentally gave birth to the PlayStation. Plus: we play our history edition of Two Truths and a Lie — war pigs, bidet thrones, bear taxes, and an elephant electrocuted in the name of science.It's Episode 273.

In this episode, JT and Anthony take the conversation of courage from the situational to the relational.Courage is practiced in seemingly small ways, through daily acts like telling the truth, owning your mistakes, and setting boundaries. When you consistently choose discipline over comfort and show up even when you don't feel like it, you're preparing yourself for the moments that truly matter—because courage is contagious and forged in the everyday.If you want to become the kind of man who rises when it counts, it starts by asking: is this for my own good...or the greater good?CONNECT WITH GREATMAN:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the No Shame on U podcast, host Gadi Kalman is joined by Ryan Lipsett, a college freshman mental health advocate from Illinois who is already making waves in the mental health community. Ryan shares his story with remarkable openness — from a "typical childhood" that shifted in middle school when body dysmorphia and isolation set in, to years of quietly living with depression and anxiety, to a pivotal moment when he finally asked his mom for help on what he feared might be one of his last days. Ryan reflects on what it meant to finally be asked if he was okay, why that one question changed everything, and how his journey led him to advocacy work with NAMI's Ending the Silence program and a seat on NAMI's National Next Gen advisory board. He and Gadi also dig into the unique barriers men face when it comes to mental health — from toxic "man up" messaging to identities tied to performance and silence reinforced by peer culture. The conversation turns to the state of mental health education in schools, where Ryan makes a compelling case for why a one-week mental health unit simply isn't enough, and what a real, consistent, clinician-informed curriculum could look like. Throughout, Ryan models exactly what he advocates for: honesty, vulnerability, and the belief that reaching out for help is the bravest thing you can do. Whether you're a young person navigating your own challenges or someone who supports them, this episode is a reminder that you don't have to go public with your story, but getting help early can change everything.

Courage isn't something you scramble to find in a crisis—it's a decision made long before the moment arrives, forged by preparing your soul for what may be asked of you. Drawing on powerful stories of history's bravest, including a gripping account from Stephen Mansfield's book, "The Faith of the American Soldier," Stephen explores how courage means standing between danger and the innocent, facing hard truths, and living with moral clarity. As Winston Churchill said, "Courage is the first of human qualities—because it makes all others possible."CONNECT WITH GREATMAN:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In the summer of 1880, John Muir set out to explore the icy wilderness of what is now Glacier Bay National Park. Traveling by canoe with a missionary and Tlingit guides, he reluctantly allowed a small black dog named Stickeen to join the expedition. At first, Muir dismissed the dog as a useless companion. However, when a violent storm trapped the two of them on Brady Glacier, surrounded by deep crevasses and failing daylight, Stickeen revealed a courage Muir could not ignore, forever reshaping how he understood the minds of animals.

Brené Brown is a world-renowned researcher and author, known for her work on vulnerability, courage, and what makes truly effective leaders. She has spent decades studying human behaviour, uncovering how fear, connection, and self-awareness shape performance at the highest level.In this episode, Brené sits down with Jake and Damian to explore the difference between safe and unsafe leadership, and how fear quietly drives decisions at work and at home. She explains why the best leaders don't avoid vulnerability, but use it to build trust, clarity, and stronger teams.They cover why your greatest strength might secretly be your armour, the formula every elite performer needs to understand (performance = potential minus interference), why organisational leaders are the only high-performers in the world where coaching isn't expected, and what England's penalty curse and Liverpool's current struggles really tell us about the psychology of winning.Plus — a special surprise message from Steven Gerrard leaves Brené lost for words!Subscribe to Brené's podcast ‘The Curiosity Shop' on YouTube or your favorite app for new episodes every Thursday.Brené's latest book ‘Strong Ground' is available now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Strong-Ground-Leadership-Tenacity-Vermilion/dp/178504320XLinks referenced in podcast: The lethality of loneliness: John Cacioppo TED TALKOur partners in this episode: Heights
On this edition of The Update Journal, we explore what happens when one major news story eats the entire broadcast like it skipped lunch — and the rest of the world just quietly waits its turn. Weather? Sports? Local chaos? Never heard of her.Then we pivot to TNT's Rich & Shameless, featuring the “Joe Francis Was A Walking Red Flag” episode — because nothing says cultural reflection quite like revisiting the era when late-night cable ads felt like a fever dream and everyone collectively decided, “Sure, this seems fine.”And finally, the sun comes out… and common sense clocks out. The second temperatures flirt with 70 degrees, jackets disappear, decision-making declines, and the city transforms into a real-time sociology experiment. It's not summer — it's just a preview — but you'd never know that from the way people act.Breaking news, shameless behavior, and the annual 70-degree personality shift. Spring is trying to arrive… and apparently so is chaos.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Monday, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in a major attack by Israel and the United States, Iranian state media confirmed, throwing the future of the Islamic Republic into doubt and raising the risk of regional instability. Meanwhile, here locally, Law enforcement was on high alert for terror attacks at sensitive sites in and around New York City Saturday following a series of US/Israel missile strikes on Iran overnight.In other news, the city is bizarrely using massive potted plants in Queens to prevent illegal parking in front of fire hydrants — only to thwart FDNY trucks and Bravest during emergencies, according to fuming pols and locals.And in Texas, a gunman wearing clothes with an Iranian flag design and the words “Property of Allah” killed two people and wounded 14 early Sunday at a Texas bar, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. The FBI is investigating the shooting, which erupted a day after the U.S. and Israel launched an attack on Iran, as a potential act of terrorism.
Being an entrepreneur is challenging, which is why you need the right mindset soundtracks. In this episode, I'm sharing three powerful soundtracks from my entrepreneur card deck that will help you build and scale your business. You'll discover why relationships get you the first opportunity but skills get you the second (and why you need both), how to balance the optimism required for dreaming with the realism needed for planning, and why you don't have to be the smartest person in the room if you're willing to be the bravest. After 13 years of running my own company and turning it into a seven figure business, I've learned that success often comes down to one thing: bravery. Not intelligence, not secrets, just the willingness to try, risk, fail, and try again.

Send a textAustralian private pilot and author Fran West joins me to talk about her remarkable three-month journey flying around the coastline of Australia in a Cessna 172—an adventure she later captured in her photo-rich journal, Plane Reflections.What began as inspiration from the 1978 aerial circumnavigation known as “Pelican's Progress” became Aus Flight '99—a meticulously planned, shoestring-budget flight completed with grit, humility, and hard-earned wisdom.Fran shares what it really takes to execute a marathon aviation journey:· 52 charts· 67 flight plans· 75 mainland airstrips + 15 in Tasmania· 101 landings· Multiple weather turn-backs· And the emotional weight of flying in a community that didn't always support herWe talk about:· Growing up inspired by aviation books (and inheriting a library of them)· Becoming a private pilot while building a career as a librarian· Navigating male-dominated flying spaces· The curious scrutiny around “solo” flights· Why turning back is not failure· Writing and self-publishing Plane Reflections· And an unforgettable chocolate cake “mud map” storyThis conversation is about aviation, resilience, self-trust, and doing the dream.Buy the book on Etsy.Did you know you can support your local independent bookshop and me by shopping through my Bookshop.org affiliate links on my website?

In this episode, Christopher White and Max Thomas speak directly to the newcomer — the person who's struggling, confused, overwhelmed, or quietly asking for help.

What starts as a fishing trip turns into a story about family, legacy, and why Pacific Fins in Guatemala keeps pulling people back year after year.In this episode, we sit down with Zach Miller, founder of the Bravest vs. Finest tournament, and talk about how a guy from Colorado ended up building a deep connection to one of the best blue water fisheries in the world. From catching mahi that were literally bigger than his son, to landing a 228-pound yellowfin on light tackle, to watching his kid declare himself a blue water fisherman, this conversation hits the heart of what fishing really creates beyond the catch.Zach also shares why he started Bravest vs. Finest, a tournament that brings first responders to Pacific Fins to reset, reconnect, and experience the kind of mentorship and education that builds real confidence on the water. We dig into what makes this fishery special, the conservation culture that protects it, and why the captains here consistently produce insane numbers of bites and releases.BRAVEST VS FINEST: / bravest_vs_finest ZACH: / nautical_pathfinder_fishing SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSBloody Battery: https://www.bloodybattery.comShady Rays: https://www.shadyrays.com (use code SCIENCE for 35% off)E-Sea Rider Marine Bean Bags: https://www.eseaerider.comREEL IN SOME MERCHShop official Science of Fishing gear: https://www.thescienceoffishing.com/m...JOIN THE COMMUNITYQuestions, guest requests, or ideas?Email Mark: markfarag@thescienceoffishing.comFOLLOW SCIENCE OF FISHINGInstagram: / scienceoffishing TikTok: / scienceoffishing Facebook: / scienceoffishing Twitter/X: / scienceoffish #scienceoffishing #fishing #fishinglife

Ashe in America and Abbey Blue Eyes open this episode of Culture of Change by framing the show as a continuation of Ghost's earlier discussion on Hugo Chávez and Venezuela, using that lens to examine how leaders, movements, and nations are mythologized or demonized. The conversation centers on Chávez's rise, the 2002 coup attempt, and the role of the National Endowment for Democracy, foreign influence operations, and media framing in shaping public perception. Ashe and Abbey discuss how popular support, sovereignty, and constitutional legitimacy are often obscured by simplified narratives, drawing parallels between Venezuela and broader global patterns. Ghost joins the conversation to expand on Chávez's communication style, public engagement, and the historical context surrounding U.S. involvement in regime destabilization. The episode weaves historical clips, sponsor breaks, and live chat interaction into a wide-ranging discussion about propaganda, power, and why understanding myth-making is essential to recognizing how “culture of change” is engineered rather than organic.
