"Living as modern humans we are disconnected, out of place and don't belong in the same way as other species""If you're feeling called to do something larger than you - you should follow that"SummaryTodays guest Elspeth Hay experienced a rewriting of all she had known when when one day she was grappling with the frustration that the area she calls home didn't have the ability to create more small scale, localised food systems because they were landlocked by the ocean and surrounded by established Oak forests. Until one day her belief and her story was challenged when she learned that we can eat acorns. From there  stories she'd believed her whole life began to unravel.  Not just about acorns but about the way humans have pattered ourselves to our current day reality.This process led her to write a book titled feed us with trees. The journey of the book creation took her on an ancestral tour from New England USA to the UK, introduced her to indigenous wisdom keepers, gave her the courage to challenge the system we know to be true and hold empathy for the courageous wisdom knowledge holders that have kept nature based skills and interaction alive.Elspeth is a is a wonderful story teller and with this skill alone I'm sure she is one of those humans who we need as the bridge to wherever it is we are headed."Our story is totally made up & doesn't follow any natural laws so we can look to other influences to rewrite it'Loved this?

Welcome to Think Thursday from the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, where we explore the power of your brilliant human brain. In this episode, we're revisiting the very first Think Thursday conversation. If you're new to the series or need a powerful reminder of just how capable you are of creating change, this episode is a must-listen.Molly is taking a brief pause this week, making it the perfect opportunity to revisit the core concept that sparked Think Thursdays—how your mindset literally changes your brain.This episode explores one of the most exciting and empowering discoveries in neuroscience: neuroplasticity. It's the science that explains how your thoughts and beliefs influence the physical structure of your brain, ultimately shaping your habits and behaviors.What You'll Learn:How your brain is constantly reshaping itself based on your thoughts and actionsWhy the belief that you can change is essential for rewiring your brainWhat a growth mindset looks like—and how it supports lasting changeWhy old patterns feel so automatic, and how to replace them without willpowerThe neuroscience behind habit formation, including synaptic pruningHow to start shifting your internal dialogue to align with your goalsKey Insight:Your thoughts are not just passive ideas floating in your mind. They are the foundation for the physical structure of your brain. When you change your mindset, you change your brain's wiring. That's not motivational fluff—it's science.If you've ever felt stuck in your drinking habit or frustrated by how hard it is to make a change, this episode will give you both the understanding and encouragement to try again—this time, with your brain on your side.Listen With Intention:Whether your drink of choice today is alcoholic or not, make it a moment to sit with this episode and reflect on the habits you're reinforcing—and the new ones you're ready to build.Additional Resources:Explore Molly's book, Breaking the Bottle LegacyJoin the Alcohol Minimalists private community on FacebookFinal Note:Lasting change doesn't come from gritting your teeth. It comes from training your brain to make the new habit easier than the old one. This episode lays the groundwork for doing exactly that. ★ Support this podcast ★

Send us a textWelcome back to Embrace Midlife! In this candid solo episode, I'm opening up about a chapter of my life that many of you have asked me to expand on — my drinking career. If you've listened to the very first episodes of the podcast, you've heard the beginnings of my story. But today, I go deeper — sharing the real, raw timeline of how drinking wove its way into my life, from my 20s through midlife, motherhood, business, breast cancer, and beyond.I reflect on how I didn't drink much as a teen, how my drinking habits evolved during my marriage to a professional sportsman, and the way loneliness, postnatal depression, and life transitions led to more frequent and excessive drinking in my 30s and 40s.I also talk about the rise of mummy wine culture, my battles with mental health (including postnatal depression and hospitalization), the breast cancer diagnosis that changed everything, and how I used alcohol to numb, cope, and escape. I reveal the moments that became turning points — the scary symptoms, the heartfelt text to my family, the visit to my long-time GP — and how those steps eventually led me toward sobriety and sober curiosity.This episode is Part 1 of a two-part series that leads into next season's focus: The Sober Curious Season.If you're a woman in midlife navigating your own relationship with alcohol, this episode may feel like looking in a mirror. You're not alone, and this space is here for you.What You'll Hear in This Episode:My early drinking habits (or lack thereof) and how they evolvedCoping with loneliness, divorce, and motherhood through alcoholMy journey with postnatal depression and psychiatric hospitalizationBreast cancer diagnosis and alcohol use during treatmentThe reality of mummy wine culture and its influencePhysical signs my body couldn't keep up with my drinkingThe moment I reached out for support and chose changeWhy admitting I had a problem was the most freeing decision of allThe connection between alcohol and breast cancer that's not talked about enoughHow my sober curiosity journey truly beganResources Mentioned:The Sober Diaries by Clare PooleyIf this episode resonated with you, I'd love for you to leave a review and share it with a friend.

"Why is she still upset after all the things I've tried to change?""And if I'm trying to fix myself, why does it feel like nothing is ever good enough?"In this episode of Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher, we uncover a painful truth: most husbands are working hard—but working on the wrong things.

On this episode of ScaleUp Radio, we're diving deep into change management, leadership, and scaling impact with Simon Phillips—a seasoned expert in orchestrating change for both organisations and individuals. With 25+ years of experience, including time at Accenture and over two decades running his own consultancy, Simon has developed powerful frameworks like the Delta Model for Change and the LACE Way for Human-Centric Leadership. His mission? To develop a million changemakers—people who can support others in making positive transformations. What We Cover in This Episode:

State Senator Julian Bradley joins Matt Kirchner for a wide-ranging conversation on how policymakers should be thinking about AI, energy, and education. Bradley explains why his committee chose not to recommend regulation of AI, how this move differs from other states, and how artificial intelligence could help solve workforce shortages in critical sectors like healthcare, public safety, and manufacturing.The conversation also explores the future of nuclear energy as a clean, scalable power source—especially as data centers and advanced industries drive up demand. Bradley shares his push for small modular reactors and the bipartisan momentum behind nuclear innovation. Finally, the two dive into K-12 education, taking on literacy rates, school choice, and why high schools need a complete overhaul to actually prepare students for life after graduation. Whether you're an educator, policymaker, or industry leader, this episode offers practical insights into the policy decisions shaping our future workforce.In this episode:Why one state senator believes not regulating AI may be the smartest moveHow artificial intelligence could help solve labor shortages from childcare to healthcareWhat policymakers are missing about nuclear energy—and why that's about to changeWhy our current education system is setting students up to fail, and what to do insteadHow a wrestling ring, a mother's wisdom, and a literacy-first mindset shaped a political career3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:Regulating artificial intelligence requires caution, context, and a long-term view: Senator Bradley led a legislative study committee on the regulation of AI and ultimately chose not to recommend new regulation, citing the risk of stifling innovation and creating barriers for businesses. Drawing on testimony from sectors like healthcare, public safety, and education, the committee focused instead on building a knowledge base for future legislative action—prioritizing flexibility over rushed policymaking.Meeting future energy demand will require bold thinking and bipartisan cooperation: With AI, data centers, and industry driving massive increases in power needs, Bradley is pushing Wisconsin to embrace nuclear energy as a scalable, clean solution. He outlines current efforts to support small modular reactors, prepare regulatory frameworks, and position the state as a leader in 21st-century energy policy.Education reform must focus on real-world readiness, from literacy to life skills: Bradley calls for a complete overhaul of high school—moving away from rigid grade levels toward personalized, career-connected learning. He also stresses that without strong literacy skills, students can't access opportunity, and that solving academic gaps early is essential to preparing engaged citizens and a capable workforce.Resources in this Episode:Learn more about Senator Julian BradleyLearn about the work of the 2024 Legislative Council Study Committee on the Regulation of Artificial IntelligenceWe want to hear from you!

In this episode of the Mi365 Podcast, Pete Cohen explores the power of the 1% rule—making small, consistent changes that lead to significant transformation over time. He challenges listeners to invest just 14 minutes and 24 seconds of their day (1% of a 24-hour period) into personal growth and self-improvement. Pete discusses the importance of shifting perspectives, identifying key areas for growth, and overcoming the common obstacles that prevent us from making progress. He shares insights from Atomic Habits by James Clear and the philosophy of "Kaizen"—continuous improvement. Key Topics Covered: ✔️ The Power of 1% Daily Improvement: Small, intentional actions create a compounding effect over time. ✔️ The Importance of Perspective: Real change happens when we see things differently, not just when we're told what to do. ✔️ Slowing Down to Reflect: Taking time to pause and assess where we are and where we want to be. ✔️ The Three Key Areas of Growth: Health & Energy Relationships (including the relationship with yourself) Wealth, Work & Service ✔️ The Gap Between Where You Are & Where You Want to Be: How to bridge that gap through small daily investments. ✔️ Overcoming Resistance to Change: Why we naturally avoid difficult things and how to push past initial discomfort. ✔️ The Power of Starting: Once you start, momentum makes it harder to stop. Action Steps: ✅ Pick One Area – Choose one part of your life (health, relationships, or work) to invest 14 minutes and 24 seconds in each day. ✅ Commit to Small Steps – Focus on small, consistent changes instead of overwhelming transformations. ✅ Get Started Today – Don't wait for motivation; action creates momentum. ✅ Join the Conversation – Share your biggest takeaway from this episode in the Mi365 WhatsApp group  Resources & Links:

While the fossil fuel industry continues to promote "natural gas" as a relatively "clean" energy source, Dr. Robert Howarth has argued since since his seminal report in 2011 that methane (which makes up roughly 5% of "natural gas") poses a greater threat to humankind than "dirty" options like coal and oil. This is particularly true of methane produced through hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") Join us for a conversation about what we've now known for more than a decade, and how much more convinced Dr. Howarth is now that we should not be fracking for gas, nor otherwise be using methane as an energy source.Dr. Howarth is the David R. Atkinson Professor of Ecology & Environmental Biology in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University. He's an Earth systems scientist, ecosystem biologist, and biogeochemist. He has worked extensively on environmental issues related to human-induced changes in the sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus, and carbon cycles, the impacts of global climate change, the interaction of energy systems and the environment, and implementation of 100% renewable energy policies. He is the Founding Editor of the journal Biogeochemistry.Currently, Howarth serves as one of 22 members of the Climate Action Council, the group charged by law with implementing the aggressive climate goals of New York's Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act of 2019, often referred to as CLCPA. Howarth has published more than 200 research papers, and these have been cited in other peer-reviewed articles more than 70,000 times, making Howarth one of the ten most cited aquatic scientists in the world. In 2011, Time Magazine named Howarth as one of 50 “People Who Matter” for his research on the greenhouse gas footprint of shale gas produced from hydraulic fracturing, better known as “fracking”.Topics Discussed Include:Why methane is such a concern with regard to climate changeWhy methane emissions are greater than predicted by the gas industryWhy Dr. Howarth believes methane is worse for the climate than coalHow some methane leaks are accidental while others are routine, and therefore can't be eliminatedHow OGI thermal cameras are able to see methane and other greenhouse gassesFurther ReadingDr. Howarth maintains a web site featuring many of the works he's published over the years, including the April 2011 paper on methane leaks from gas fracking.Support the showVisit us at climatemoneywatchdog.org!
