What happens when readers get REALLY into a book? Sometimes… everyone starts reading it.  In this episode of Book Lounge by Libby, host Joe Skelley is joined by authors whose books found huge audiences through book clubs, BookTok, Bookstagram and online reading communities. We're talking about the very real power of readers to turn a great book into a full-blown phenomenon and what it's like for an author to watch that happen.  How does a book become the one everyone is recommending? Why do some stories take off in book clubs? And what makes readers want to pass a book along to everyone they know?  Plus, we're getting into the joy, chaos and occasionally unhinged energy of being part of a reading community.  Whether you're a lifelong book club member, a solo reader who lives in the group chat or someone who has ever said “I HAVE to make you read this,” this one is for you.  If you're part of a book club, tell us about it! How big is your group? How often do you meet? What's the best book you've ever read together? And, perhaps most importantly, what's the book that nearly started a civil war?  Listen or watch now, and join the conversation with Book Lounge by Libby.  Looking for the video version of our show?

Content Note: This episode contains discussion of childhood trauma and references to emotional, physical, sexual, and spiritual abuse, including SRA. Specific graphic details are not discussed. Please use discretion when deciding when and where to listen. This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with a longtime client who is sharing her story anonymously—a story marked by profound trauma, years of searching for answers, and ultimately, a testimony centered on the faithfulness of Jesus. For many years, today's guest knew there were parts of her story that continued to affect her, even after spending significant time in counseling and trying to understand her past. Her history included childhood emotional, physical, sexual, and spiritual abuse, including experiences she identifies as SRA. When she was first introduced to Splankna, she was skeptical. But over time, working through her story in a way that incorporated her faith, emotions, body, and past experiences became an important part of her personal journey toward greater freedom. In this deeply personal conversation, Laura and her guest talk less about the details of what happened to her and more about what Jesus has done in her life since. This is not an episode about giving darkness center stage. It's a story about what can happen when someone who has lived through tremendous pain begins to experience safety, connection, hope, and freedom—and discovers that her past does not get the final word. In this episode: What it can feel like to know something from your past is still affecting you without fully understanding why Her early experiences with counseling and why she continued searching for additional support Why she was initially skeptical of Splankna What helped her eventually feel safe enough to engage with deeper parts of her story The complexity of processing childhood trauma after many years Throughout this conversation, Laura's guest shares her own personal experience. Her story is not intended to suggest that every person with a trauma history will have the same experience or outcome. Above all, this episode is a testimony of redemption. Trauma may be part of her story. It is not the end of her story.

Send us Fan MailThe most dangerous employee survey is the one with great scores when nobody felt safe telling the truth. Chuck and John unpack a Golden State Warriors lawsuit to reveal why asking for honest feedback and then punishing honesty can quietly destroy trust, engagement, and your early warning system.What starts as a story about an NBA-wide employee satisfaction survey turns into a hard lesson for every leader and HR team: feedback is a promise, not a checkbox. Chuck and John break down what happens when leaders shift from asking, “What can we learn?” to “Who said this?” and why that one move can turn a confidential survey into a fear test.In this episode, you'll discover:Why survey response rates matter less than whether employees believe anything will changeHow managers can create retaliation risk by getting defensive over criticismThe difference between normal performance management and unlawful retaliationWhy “people operations” still needs strong HR judgment, not just better brandingHow psychological safety shows up in real workplaces, not just theoryChuck offers a practical reset for HR: before the next engagement survey goes out, ask what you will do if you do not like the answers. John adds the leadership perspective, arguing that teams only improve when leaders can hear criticism without making it personal.If you care about employee engagement, retaliation risk, or building a workplace where people can speak freely without calculating the consequences, this episode is essential listening. A quiet workplace is not always a healthy one—and the cost of silence can be far higher than a bad survey score.

Interview with Patrick Cruickshank, Director & CEO of Nine Mile MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/nine-mile-metals-csenine-234m-of-visual-copper-and-a-horizon-never-seen-in-historic-records-10758Recording date: 24th September 2026Nine Mile Metals Ltd. (CSE:NINE) is a Canadian junior explorer focused on copper-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits in the Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick. Its lead asset is the Wedge, a deposit that Cominco mined in the 1960s. According to the company's presentation, historic production was approximately 1.5 million tonnes at 2.88% copper.The company is midway through a 10,000-metre Phase 3 programme, its largest to date. CEO and Director Patrick J. Cruickshank said 22 holes and roughly 5,500 metres had been completed at the time of the interview, with only five holes reported. Assay turnaround of about a month, and the need to rebuild each hole from anonymously numbered samples, explains the gap. Certified results to date includes 24.55 metres of 3.49% copper equivalent over true width and another 14.15 metres at 5.09% copper equivalent.The geological picture has become more complex and potentially more valuable. Drilling has identified three lenses rather than one. One is a polymetallic lens with lead, zinc, silver, copper and gold. Another, to the east, carries high-grade copper and gold over roughly 40 metres. The lenses dip steeply, so reported intercept widths reflect drill angle rather than true lens size.The next step is methodical rather than aggressive. Because the upper third of the deposit has collapsed and historic plans of the workings are unavailable, Nine Mile is running a borehole electromagnetic survey across eight holes. The survey should produce a 3D map of old workings and remaining conductors. The company will then complete the programme by drilling to depth on the northwest side of a fault that cuts the deposit. Historic mining did not test below about 150 to 300 metres.Apex Geoscience is consolidating historic and modern data into a live model. An updated NI 43-101 technical report is expected in the first quarter, followed by a maiden mineral resource estimate. Management's stated mandate is to demonstrate a footprint of up to 10 million tonnes. That target remains untested until the resource estimate is published.Beyond the Wedge, a new rig is heading to Tribag, four kilometres west along the same trend, to test six targets at 350 to 400 metres depth over about 3,000 metres. At Nine Mile Brook, where the company drilled 10.12% copper over 15.10 metres, a second rhyolite cap found this summer will be drilled next spring.Financially, the company is in its strongest position in several years. It holds about C$5 million in cash and says it is funded for two to almost three years without needing to raise. Management reports inbound interest from companies about joint ventures and acquisitions, although no agreement has been announced.The principal risks are typical of pre-resource exploration. These include laboratory delays, unverified historic data, copper equivalent figures that differ in methodology between holes and the absence of any defined resource. Investors should watch pending Phase 3 assays, the borehole survey results, the Tribag programme and the first-quarter technical report as the key near-term markers.View Nine Mile Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/nine-mile-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

A UAD 3.6 appraisal starts before you ever open a software program. It starts with the data. Today, we are talking with the person who decided to rethink how this data gets collected, and then put himself in the middle of the biggest software comparison event this profession has ever seen.Certified residential appraiser and ProxyPics founder Luke Tomaszewski joins us today to talk about the changing world of property data collection, the Uniform Property Dataset, LiDAR floor plans, and what appraisers need from the field as the November 2nd mandate rapidly approaches.

Chuck and John unpack the real question leaders need to answer now: not whether AI works, but who gets the time it creates, who owns the outcome, and how to keep trust intact as the workplace changes.Chuck shares how AI has given him back time, improved the quality of his communications, and helped him move faster without sacrificing the human context that matters in HR. John pushes the conversation further with a practical framework for using AI at work: set clear intentions, define boundaries, verify everything, and never confuse speed with accountability.You'll discover:Why AI often creates capacity instead of simply making people fasterThe tension between employee benefit and leadership expectations when time is “saved”How to use AI for resumes, email, and research without outsourcing judgmentWhy AI can sound confidently wrong and how to challenge it before it costs youThe hidden risk of bias when AI learns from your organization's past decisionsWhat “meaningful human oversight” really looks like in HR and beyondJohn also explains why AI is pursuit-oriented, not self-aware, and why that matters when tools are given broad access to systems and data. The conversation gets real about confidential information, workplace trust, and the difference between using AI as a toy versus using it as a serious business tool.If your organization is already experimenting with AI, or if you're responsible for people decisions, this episode gives you a practical way to think about the upside, the risk, and the guardrails you need before things get messy.

Today on Neurodiverse Christian Couples, Dr. Stephanie Holmes is joined by guest co-host Jenilee Rachel, filling in for Dan, for a conversation with Kimberly June Miller, MTh, LMFT, co-author with Dr. Alison Cook of Boundaries for Your Soul. Together, they explore Internal Family Systems (IFS) from a distinctly Christian perspective. IFS gives us language for understanding the different “parts” of ourselves—the protective parts, wounded parts, critical voices, fears, and responses that can sometimes seem to compete for control. Kimberly discusses how this framework can be integrated with Christian faith, helping us approach those parts with curiosity and compassion rather than shame or condemnation while inviting the presence and leadership of God into the places within us that need healing. Boundaries for Your Soul describes this as learning to develop healthy internal boundaries so that overwhelming thoughts and emotions can be heard and understood without being allowed to take over our lives.Kimberly June Miller, MTh, LMFT, is a licensed marriage and family therapist, speaker, retreat leader, and founder of Leading Wholeheartedly, a ministry devoted to helping Christian leaders cultivate healthy inner lives. Before becoming a therapist, Kimberly served as a campus minister with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at Harvard University. She holds graduate degrees in theology and clinical psychology and is Certified and Level 2 trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy, with additional training in Imago Relationship Therapy, Gottman, and Prepare-Enrich. Her work specializes in the integration of psychology and spirituality and in helping people recognize that difficult emotions and internal conflicts do not have to be enemies—they can become places where God meets us and transformation occurs.Kimberly's books:Boundaries for the SoulSpiritual Wellness Bible Additional information from KimberlyNot all meaningful connection is human-to-human. On the IFS Talks podcast, Sarah Bergenfield reminds us that many autistic individuals experience deep connection—to animals, objects, places, or sensory rituals—not as a trauma response, but as a natural way to feel grounded and connected. For some on the spectrum, a dog, a blanket, a favorite tree, or even a familiar texture offers a steady, anchoring presence that helps them feel safe and settled. In IFS, we honor each part's wisdom—and for some, connection with the other-than-human world is exactly what brings regulation, joy, and wholeheartedness.Dr. Stephanie adds that IFS has been researched as helpful for ASD/ND; IFS is helpful for all neurotypes!  And if this conversation leaves you wanting to explore IFS more personally through the lens of neurodiversity or neurodiverse marriage, Jenilee Rachel offers coaching for neurodivergent individuals and couples, providing a space to explore your own “parts,” patterns, relationships, and spiritual growth with a coach who understands the neurodiverse experience. Learn more about Jenilee and her coaching at JenileeRachel.com.

This is a Greatest Hits repost. If you heard it the first time, congratulations on your taste. If you didn't, you're welcome!So, this is f*cked up. I got a copyright strike while playing a portion of a the Queen song "My Fairy King." They emailed me about it. I said it was "free use" as I was illustrating a part of Freddie Mercury history by giving it context via the track. They went away. Then TWO MORE music groups sent me emails. I disputed. Finally, Spotify decided, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! On behalf of a podcast creator who posts using our platform and distribution infrastructure we insist that you listen to him and FINALLY understand that the track is being used as FREE USE, due to the context the small portion is being used to flesh out detail in the subject's own history. STOP HARASSING HIM RECORD COMPANIES!"Ah, no, they took it down...and left up part two.This one had to be edited because SPOTIFY and the powers that be weren't in the mood for a "free use" argument about the use of the song 'Fairy King'.Freddie Mercury was arguably the greatest frontman in rock history and the patron saint of excess. He lived at the speed of light, right up until a disease and some spectacularly cruel timing hit the brakes far too soon.Elton tries to lighten the mood about one of rock & roll's most brilliant and unluckiest sons. Part 1 runs from the birth of Farrokh Bulsara to the birth of Queen. Come for the insanity. Stay for the tragedy.Also, an uncomfortable amount of dick jokes. What more could you ask for? Less?

www.TNTrafficSafety.org (links for training classes)www.CarSeatSafety.kids - all Things Child Passenger Safety for CPS week - calendar of events, FAQs, Ages, Stages, TN Law, etc.This episode of Healthy Mom, Healthy Baby Tennessee features Julie Brewer from the Tennessee Occupant Safety Center discussing child passenger safety during Child Passenger Safety Awareness Week. Julie shares her 20-year journey in traffic safety and injury prevention, explaining the role of child passenger safety technicians and the four-day national certification process. The conversation focuses on common car seat installation mistakes, developmental stages for transitioning between rear-facing, forward-facing, and booster seats, and how parents can access professional car seat fitting assistance to ensure optimal protection for their children.Key TakeawaysProper car seat installation requires attention to three critical elements: using the top tether strap, ensuring snug harness fit, and locking the vehicle seatbelt in a fixed position to reduce crash injuries.Parents should prioritize manufacturer instructions and avoid rushing children through car seat stages; rear-facing provides optimal protection for the head, neck, and spine regardless of age.Child passenger safety technicians receive comprehensive national training covering vehicle systems, car seat mechanics, and communication skills across a four-day certification course.Certified fitting stations and community outreach events provide accessible resources for parents to gain hands-on education and confidence in protecting their children during vehicle travel.Quotable Moments"I love the idea of helping kids stay safe.""You don't know what you don't know.""By fixing those three things, it would really reduce a lot of risk in the crash."Show Notes by Barevalue.No content or comments made in any TIPQC Healthy Mom Healthy Baby Podcast is intended to be comprehensive or medical advice.

In this episode he walks through what an auditor actually looks for on a poultry farm, why most farms struggle their first time through, and why he thinks the entire industry is framing animal welfare the wrong way.In this episode:- What happens during an animal welfare audit, and why organization beats perfection- The single biggest reason farms get dinged, and it is not what the birds look like- How American Humane Certified answers the criticism that it does not require 100 percent compliance- Where the new 2026 pullet welfare standards came from, and whether they require capital spend or just a change in management- What actually happens when a certification gets revoked- Why Ryan argues animal welfare belongs in the same category as food safety and airline safety, not marketingAbout Ryan Bennett:Ryan Bennett is Vice President of the Farm Program at the American Humane Society, where he leads American Humane Certified, a farm animal welfare certification program covering more than a billion animals a year across nine species.

Most people already have a long-term care plan. Yet they have never written it down, never funded it, and in many cases never said it out loud — it is simply the assumption that a son or daughter will step in when the time comes. Roughly 25% of U.S. adults do not have that assumption available to them. In Part 1 of her conversation with Scott Barnes, CFP®, CLTC, Director of Financial Planning at Childfree Wealth, host Kirsten Howe looks at what financial planning has to account for when there is no built-in safety net. Scott explains why disability and long-term care coverage move to the top of the insurance list while life insurance moves down, and why the hardest gap to fill is not the hands-on caregiving but the coordination — hiring the aides, running the schedule, getting someone to a doctor's appointment. He and Kirsten also get into the Die With Zero approach to spending intentionally, why planning software is not built for it, and the scarcity mindset that keeps people with more than enough money from spending any of it. Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00  Introduction  1:05  Meet Scott Barnes, CFP®, CLTC — two decades in financial planning, plus a Certified in Long-Term Care designation. 2:05  Why Childfree Wealth exists: founder Dr. Jay Zigmont saw a gap in the market that nobody was serving. 3:00  Did you know? Roughly 25% of the U.S. is childfree — and the CFP curriculum never mentions them. 3:50  The definition matters: about 21% of people are childfree by choice, about 4% are childless by circumstance, and why Scott's team treats those groups differently. 5:05  What about people who haven't decided whether to have children? Listen as Scott talks about meeting clients where they are. 5:50  Kids are expensive — Scott's estimate for raising one to 18, and why geography changes the number. 7:00  No college fund, no 40-year grind: what "work-optional" actually looks like. 7:45 Why some of Scott's clients move states every two or three years — and skip buying a home entirely to keep that mobility. 9:05 Kirsten's addition: when kids aren't the focus, you're not planting yourself in the best school district you can afford. 9:40 Hobbies in the middle of a workday — Scott's cars, other clients' gardening and pottery — and the job flexibility that makes it possible. 11:00 The biggest planning assumption that changes: Bill Perkins' Die With Zero, and spending intentionally instead of building a legacy. 12:20 Every financial planning platform is built to maximize what you leave behind. None of them are built to help you spend it down. 13:20 Why Scott would rather give his nieces and nephews something in their twenties than leave it to them at 50. 14:40 Kirsten names the thing most families never say out loud: for a lot of people, the kids are the long-term care plan. 15:30 The childfree bingo card: "Who's going to take care of you when you get older?" 16:20 Disability and long-term care insurance move up the list. Life insurance moves down. 17:20 The part nobody budgets for: somebody still has to hire the caregivers and drive to the appointments. 18:40 Care coordination services: most policies now include an insurer-provided coordinator who finds home care or an assisted living facility for you. 19:30 Self-funding instead? Then the geriatric care manager is another cost on top. 20:15 Why waiting until a crisis costs the most: no transition, no shopping around, and care needed immediately. 21:00 Kirsten on Medi-Cal planning, and how many clients arrive only after things have already fallen apart. 21:50 "Soloists" — Scott's term for people aging without a partner or children — and why they need a funded plan, not an assumption. 22:40 Wealthy enough to self-insure, and still unwilling to spend a dollar of it. 23:15 Where the scarcity mindset starts: grandparents who lived through the Great Depression, and the habit passed down since. 24:10 "I know what your balance sheet looks like." The clients who will never run out and cannot stop worrying. 24:50 The window that matters: why your 40s and 50s is the time to buy, and what waiting until your 70s costs. 25:30 Coming next: estate planning for childfree adults.

The more you pursue your spouse for emotional or sexual connection, the more they seem to pull away—and the harder you try, the worse it gets. Certified sex therapist Dr. Laurie Watson explains why couples get trapped in this pursue-withdraw cycle and how vulnerable, blame-free conversations can begin to change it. We also discuss why trading emotional connection for sex backfires, what women's bodies actually need for pleasure, and why securely attached couples often have the most—and most varied—sex.

“If it's certified, we know it works on the platform—and we have the relationships in place to help resolve issues.” In this Technology Reseller News podcast recorded at Alianza Navigate 2026, Korey Kather of Snom discusses the company's expanding phone portfolio, its work within the Alianza ecosystem and how Snom is helping partners save time with certified products, North American support and advanced replacement warranties. Snom is a business phone manufacturer with a broad portfolio of DECT and desk phones. Kather says one of the company's biggest differentiators is its North American sales, engineering and support presence. Partners can reach Snom directly for pre-sales assistance, deployment help and troubleshooting. The company also offers a three-year advanced replacement warranty, allowing qualified replacements to be shipped before the original device is returned. At Alianza Navigate, Snom highlighted its M500 Series, including a DECT system that can emulate a traditional key system. Incoming calls can appear on familiar line keys, making the platform particularly useful for restaurants, retail and small-office environments where simplicity and minimal retraining matter. Snom is also expanding its D800 Series. The new D892 combines a full-featured desk phone with a DECT handset, giving users the flexibility to move away from the desk while retaining access to their business phone environment. “It's a full-functioning desk set, but it gives you more range,” Kather says. Snom has also worked closely with Alianza to certify its devices across the company's platforms. Kather says certification helps reduce deployment friction for MSPs and channel partners while giving both Snom and Alianza a foundation for faster support when issues arise. For partners outside the Alianza ecosystem, Snom products are available through authorized distribution. Kather says the combination of competitive pricing, a broad product portfolio, strong warranty coverage and accessible North American support gives MSPs another option when building voice solutions for customers.

EPISODE 764 - Gary Wise - Certified PGA of Australia member - No Junk Reps, the Adaptive Performance StateThis episode features Gary Wise, an Australian-born performance coach whose journey spans elite surf lifesaving, professional golf, and decades of coaching athletes at the highest levels. Now based in Florida, Gary reflects on a life shaped by sport, discipline, and ultimately a deeper understanding of how the mind influences performance.Gary's early years were defined by movement and competition, from ocean rowing and surf lifesaving in Australia to rugby, water polo, and eventually golf. What began as a casual introduction to golf through caddying evolved into a professional career, taking him from competitive play into coaching. Along the way, he developed a unique perspective that blends physical performance with mental awareness.At the heart of this conversation is Gary's concept of adaptive performance, a framework built on five key actions: recognize, identify, align, transfer, and accept. Rather than focusing solely on outcomes, he emphasizes decision making in the present moment. Whether it's a young golfer facing pressure on the final hole or a lifeguard responding to an emergency, the goal is the same: match actions to intent while staying grounded in what matters right now.Gary challenges the widespread misinformation that surrounds performance, particularly in youth sports. He highlights how unrealistic expectations, often fueled by social media and misunderstanding of professional statistics, create unnecessary pressure and anxiety. A seven-foot putt on the PGA Tour, for example, is only made about half the time, yet young athletes are often made to feel like failure is not an option. This disconnect, he explains, can shape confidence and identity in harmful ways.The conversation also explores the role of parents and coaches, urging a shift away from control and toward support. Gary stresses the importance of allowing young athletes to make decisions, learn from mistakes, and develop ownership over their performance. Interference, even when well intentioned, can create doubt and disrupt focus in critical moments.Gary's book, No Junk Reps, grew out of a thesis on performance and evolved into a deeply personal project that challenged him in unexpected ways. Writing forced him to confront gaps in memory, vulnerability, and identity, ultimately reinforcing his belief that everyone has a story worth telling. His advice to aspiring writers is simple: start, let go of control, and allow the process to unfold.Throughout the episode, Gary returns to a central idea: we often see things not as they are, but as we are. By learning to manage attention, filter information, and stay present, both athletes and individuals can make better decisions and perform with greater clarity.Key takeaway: True performance is not about perfection or outcome, but about mastering the ability to stay present, make clear decisions, and align your actions with what matters most in the moment.https://ijga.com/coaches/gary-wise/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
