    Unleashing Purpose and Prosperity with Pushkar Anand In this compelling episode, I sit down with Pushkar Anand, a transformational leader whose 15-year journey from high-achieving banker to purpose-driven author is nothing short of extraordinary. What began as a quest for personal success evolved into a mission to uplift humanity and empower others to unlock their highest potential. From Success-Seeker to Soul-Driven Leader Pushkar shares his evolution—rooted in voracious learning, with over 500 books read, countless seminars attended, and deep mentorship. His goal shifted from decoding the formula for success to creating a roadmap for others, helping them accelerate their growth without the long detour. His book is the result: a guide for those ready to step into their truth, purpose, and power. Authenticity as the Gateway to Purpose We dive into the heart of living authentically—what it really means to embody who you're meant to be. Pushkar's core belief is that once you're aligned with your true self, abundance naturally follows. I add that living with purpose makes us more resilient, magnetic, and inspiring. The answers we seek aren't “out there”—they live within us. Vibrational Alignment and Financial Freedom Pushkar breaks down how aligning your self-image with your financial vision can unlock exponential results. It's not just about goal-setting—it's about becoming the person who already has what they desire. By embracing “inspired action,” we can shift from hustle to harmony, planting seeds today for the wealth of tomorrow. The Power of Belief and Wealth Consciousness We unpack the deep power of self-belief, the rarity of human existence, and how our internal dialogue shapes our external reality. Pushkar introduces his “6 Statutes of Money,” challenging the myth that wealth is dependent on family background or formal education. The real key? Vibrational alignment and mindset mastery. Mastering Wealth Through Inner Work Pushkar explains that wealth isn't just earned—it's tuned into. Financial success is the byproduct of purpose, belief, and inner alignment. One of his key principles: there's no universal definition of “wealth”—it's as unique as each person's mission. Rewiring the subconscious can shift everything. A Book That Shifts Paradigms We close the conversation by exploring the impact of Pushkar's book—crafted to serve those ready to evolve. Whether you're starting your journey or looking to deepen your alignment with purpose and prosperity, Pushkar invites listeners to explore more through his site: PushkarAnandsWorld.com, where you'll find free resources, transformational programs, and tools to master your wealth from the inside out.  Pushkar Anand is the author of the #1 international bestseller Manifest Your Infinite Riches and founder of the Centre for Infinite Riches. Educated at the University of Cambridge and the London School of Economics, Pushkar was in the early stages of his traditional corporate career when a profound moment of insight in 2008 led him to evaluate his life expectations and priorities. This moment of insight set Pushkar on his quest as a seeker: an extraordinary quest of endless research and self-discovery that covered more than 500 books, thirty seminars, workshops and immersive learning experiences, and an intense four-year period of study with his teacher – Blaine Bartlett, whom he fondly addresses as Grandmaster B². Pushkar's fifteen-year journey resulted in his founding the Centre for Infinite Riches and authoring Manifest Your Infinite Riches. The Centre is best defined as a movement; a movement, whose purpose is to Uplift Humanity by empowering everyone it touches to become the person they were always meant to be. The Centre's vision is to uplift four million people by Pushkar's 50th birthday on October 21, 2026 and 100 million people by Grandmaster B²'s 80th birthday on September 9, 2026. https://pushkaranandsworld.com/about/ Book:  Manifest Your Infinite Riches

    In this Mind The Kids podcast junior doctor Clara Faria brings listeners into the heart of child and adolescent mental health care. In this episode, Clara welcomes Dr. Robyn McCarron, consultant psychiatrist at Cambridge's Darwin Centre, for a candid conversation about the realities and challenges of inpatient care for young people. Trigger warning: Sensitive topics such as restrictive practices, eating disorders, and trauma are discussed. Listener discretion is advised. Robyn shares her journey revealing how her experiences shaped her belief that traditional models often fall short for the most complex and vulnerable patients. She describes the inpatient ward as a place where young people arrive carrying not just medical diagnoses, but also deep histories of trauma, developmental struggles, and social adversity. Robyn's approach is rooted in values—respect, safety, and discovery—always striving to minimize harm and empower young people to participate in their own care. The episode explores the delicate balance between necessary interventions, like feeding under restraint for life-threatening eating disorders, and the risk of causing further trauma. Clara and Robyn also discuss the importance of supporting young people to regain independence and rebuild their lives outside the hospital, breaking cycles of readmission. Robyn's reflections are honest and inspiring, highlighting the privilege and challenge of helping young people navigate some of their darkest moments. This episode is a powerful reminder that mental health care is about more than protocols—it's about relationships, trust, and the courage to rethink how we support the next generation.

    Stefan Collini, FBA.Professor Emeritus of Intellectual History and English Literature, University of Cambridge.The Donald Winch Lectures in Intellectual History.University of St Andrews.11th, 12th & 13th October 2022.In the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, universities expanded to include a wide range of what came to be regarded as academic ‘disciplines'. In Britain, the study of ‘English literature' was eventually to become one of the biggest and most popular of these subjects, yet it was in some ways an awkward fit: not obviously susceptible to the ‘scientific' treatment considered the hallmark of a scholarly discipline, it aroused a kind of existential commitment in many of those who taught and studied it. These lectures explore some of the ways in which these tensions worked themselves out in the last two hundred years, drawing on a wide range of sources to understand the aspirations invested in the subject, the resistance that it constantly encountered, and the distinctive forms of enquiry that came to define it. In so doing, they raise larger questions about the changing character of universities, the peculiar cultural standing of ‘literature', and the conflicting social expectations that societies have entertained towards higher education and specialized scholarship.Handout - Lecture 2: Careers1. ‘His tastes and pursuits would no doubt lead him to lecture on the Structure of the English Language and its affinities with cognate tongues, rather than upon Rhetoric or the Art of Composition, but when it was mentioned to him that the latter formed part of the duties of the chair, he made no difficulty about undertaking it.'2. ‘We think that the Professor of the English Language and Literature at our College ought, if it were possible, to unite all the qualifications which we think desirable, to be a thoroughly educated man, a man whose peculiar learning is based upon the sound scholarship which is the general training of English gentlemen. He ought to have made a systematic study of the English Language and English Literature: a systematic study of the Language, so as to be thoroughly conversant with its etymological structure, and the history of its formation through its successive stages; a systematic study of the Literature, so that his familiar knowledge of it may not be confined within the limits of one or two periods. He ought to have experience as a Lecturer, and to be able to lecture well: but he ought to be prepared not only to lecture, but to teach. We must bear in mind, and our Professor must bear in mind, that the practical end of our English Class is to teach our students to use their own language well both in speaking and writing.'3. ‘All the world is standing, every chatterer in every newspaper thinks he is good enough for English language and literature.'4. ‘The lecture list of Easter Term was considered. It was agreed that the Reader in Phonetics should be asked either to change the subject of his lecture on Ugrian Phonetics or to remove it from the list, as in the opinion of the Board the subject did not fall within the scope of the school.'5. ‘The main point, of course, was to choose a scholar and not a chatterer; now the chatterers have command of the newspapers and the scholars have not. That's all. I have no doubt that to any maker of paragraphs, Matthew, Ealdorman of babblers, seems a greater man than William of Chester'.6. ‘In those early years everyone, whatever her natural bias, read for the English School at Oxford, because that was the only course for which adequate preparation could at that time be secured.'7. ‘Well, I have no hesitation in de-classing the whole professorial squad - Bradley, Herford, Dowden, Walter Raleigh, Elton, Saintsbury'... [Saintsbury is allowed to have some strengths, though in spite of his style rather than because of it] ...For the rest: Professor Walter Raleigh is improving. Professor Elton has never fallen to the depths of sterile and pretentious banality which are the natural and customary level of the remaining three.' This is a public episode.

    Isaac Newton est l'un des noms les plus connus de toute l'histoire des sciences. Mais derrière la légende du savant solitaire et de la fameuse pomme, il y a un homme bien plus complexe. Dans cette vidéo, on remonte au XVIIe siècle pour comprendre son époque, ses obsessions, et la manière dont il a posé les bases de la physique moderne.De ses débuts à Cambridge à son isolement pendant la peste, des expériences sur la lumière et les couleurs jusqu'à l'invention du calcul différentiel, on suit pas à pas le parcours d'un esprit obsédé par l'idée de relier le ciel et la Terre sous les mêmes lois. On explore aussi ses côtés méconnus : sa fascination pour l'alchimie, ses rivalités féroces, et sa quête presque maladive de contrôle et de reconnaissance.De la gravité universelle aux Principia Mathematica, de ses conflits avec Hooke et Leibniz à son rôle à la Royal Mint, Newton n'a pas seulement découvert des lois : il a inventé une manière de faire de la science qui nous accompagne encore aujourd'hui. Et si Einstein a redéfini certains de ses concepts, l'ombre de Newton plane toujours sur tout ce que nous calculons, prévoyons et comprenons de l'univers.

    On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib talks to philosopher of science Nathan Cofnas, whose specialty is biology and ethics. An American, Cofnas is currently a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Cambridge. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy from Columbia University, and his doctorate in philosophy at the University of Oxford. His Substack is here. First, they discuss Kevin MacDonald's theory of Judaism as a group evolutionary strategy, which is outlined in his three-book series, A People That Shall Dwell Alone: Judaism as a Group Evolutionary Strategy, Separation and Its Discontents: Toward an Evolutionary Theory of Anti-Semitism and The Culture of Critique: An Evolutionary Analysis of Jewish Involvement in Twentieth-Century Intellectual and Political Movements. Cofnas reviews his own critiques of MacDonald's theory, and the reception they received professionally and from MacDonald's large cohort of online fans. He also discusses the impossibility in obtaining a hearing for MacDonald's response to Cofnas' arguments in academia given anxieties today about so much as “platforming” offensive ideas. Razib brings up the evolutionary biological aspects of MacDonald's theory, and why there are reasons to be skeptical due to the unrealistic parameters of mathematical models required by MacDonald's theories. They then turn to attempts to cancel Cofnas over his hereditarian views. Cofnas articulates his perspective that actually a woke-Left egalitarian perspective is probably the most rational position if you utterly reject hereditarianism, especially as regards group differences. Cofnas believes conservative arguments about the importance of culture in shaping outcomes have run their course. Finally, Razib presses Cofnas on the actual career prospects for a heterodox academic in the 21st century, and possible alternate routes to become a public intellectual.

    New research from the University of Cambridge offers up some noteworthy information on the relationship between teen social media use and mental health conditions. Researchers found that kids who struggle with anxiety and depression report higher rates of being negatively affected by social media. Those with anxiety and depression have a higher rate of comparing themselves to others on social media, having a lack of self-control over the time they spend on social media, and experiencing changes in their mood in response to the comments or likes they receive on social media. While the study doesn't say that social media use causes these mental health conditions, it does say that those who have them use social media differently, including spending an average of almost an hour more per day on social media than those who aren't anxious or depressed. Parents, monitor your kids use, and if they need help, get them to a qualified Christian counselor.

    Helen Castor is a British historian and BBC broadcaster who left Cambridge because she wanted to write narrative history focused on individuals rather than the analytical style typical of academia. As someone interested in individual psychology and the functioning of power, Castor finds medieval England offers the perfect setting because its sophisticated power structures exist in “bare bones” without the “great apparatus of state,” bringing individual power plays into sharper relief. Her latest book, The Eagle and the Hart, exemplifies this approach by examining Richard II and Henry IV as individuals whose personal choices became constitutional precedents that echo through English history. Tyler and Helen explore what English government could and couldn't do in the 14th century, why landed nobles obeyed the king, why parliament chose to fund wars with France, whether England could have won the Hundred Years' War, the constitutional precedents set by Henry IV's deposition of Richard II, how Shakespeare's Richard II scandalized Elizabethan audiences, Richard's superb artistic taste versus Henry's lack, why Chaucer suddenly becomes possible in this period, whether Richard II's fatal trip to Ireland was like Captain Kirk beaming down to a hostile planet, how historians continue to discover new evidence about the period, how Shakespeare's Henriad influences our historical understanding, Castor's most successful work habits, what she finds fascinating about Asimov's I, Robot, the subject of her next book, and more.
