Donald Trump described America's attack on Iran as “our last best chance to strike”. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today's Headlines: The U.S. and Israel launched Operation EPIC FURY, striking more than 1,000 targets across Iran. Iran retaliated widely, aiming at U.S. bases in the Gulf but also hitting civilian sites in Dubai, including the airport, the Burj Al Arab, and the Fairmont Palm Hotel. President Donald Trump said the U.S. sank nine Iranian warships, warned Americans to expect casualties and by Sunday, three U.S. service members were dead. In a major escalation, Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad were reported killed, along with dozens of senior officials. Iran then closed the Strait of Hormuz, which carries about 20% of global oil supply. Oil prices are projected to jump roughly 9% as markets reopen. Members of Congress from both parties are now pushing for a War Powers Act vote, noting they were not consulted before the strikes began. At the Pentagon, AI drama escalated. After asking how its model was used in a prior operation, Anthropic lost a $200 million federal contract and was labeled a “supply chain risk” by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Within a day, the Pentagon reached a deal with OpenAI, which says it maintains similar guardrails. Separately, reporting from The Washington Post and ProPublica details a draft executive order circulated by Trump allies that claims China interfered in 2020 and could declare a national emergency affecting election administration ahead of the midterms. Former national security adviser Michael Flynn reportedly convened allies to discuss the plan. Speaker Mike Johnson warned losing the midterms would effectively end Trump's presidency. And in Austin, Texas, two people were killed and 14 wounded in a bar shooting now being investigated by the FBI as a potential act of terrorism.

New revelations suggest federal investigators obtained phone and toll records connected to current White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles during 2022 and 2023 — actions reportedly tied to the broader special counsel investigation led by Jack Smith into then-former President Donald Trump. Sources indicate at least ten FBI employees were fired following internal review, with more personnel actions possible. FBI Director Kash Patel called the situation “outrageous and deeply disturbing.” Meanwhile, reporting from investigative journalist John Solomon cites a Government Accountability Office review alleging that the FBI opened more than 1,200 “assessments” into political figures, journalists, and clergy using investigative authorities that do not require a criminal predicate. Tara breaks down the timeline, the legal questions, the political implications, and why some lawmakers are calling for sweeping structural reforms inside the Bureau. Is this routine intelligence authority — or something far bigger?

Dr. Kelly Flanagan is a clinical psychologist whose writing and speaking have resulted in an appearance on the TODAY Show, as well as features in publications including Reader's Digest  and Success Magazine. He's no stranger to Follow Your Curiosity, having been on the show twice before to discuss his first book, Loveable, and his first novel, The Unhiding of Elijah Campbell. He chose to write his forthcoming non-fiction book with input from his online community, and the result is The Road Less Triggered: Turning Conflict into Connection with a Single Choice, which will be released on March 3. Kelly talks with me about how he chose to include others in his process and how it influenced the book, why we keep hearing so much about regulating the nervous system, what it means to be open hearted (and how to tell if your heart is closing), and more.   Episode breakdown: 00:00 Introduction. 04:41 Community input shaped the book's content and direction. 09:35 Feedback engagement valued more than just positive or negative notes. 14:13 Embracing vulnerability and doubt as growth opportunities in writing. 19:22 Walking and voice recording spark creativity and problem-solving. 24:13 Conversation and real-life application deepened the book's insights. 29:19 Open-heartedness means accepting reality fully, not being a doormat. 34:46 Noticing and reopening a closed heart is a daily practice. 39:46 Nervous system dysregulation is widespread and fueled by social media. 44:30 Catching body's early warning signs helps stop defensive behavior. 49:59 We intuitively know open versus closed heart through bodily sensations. 54:38 Creativity requires reconnecting with body wisdom and staying open-hearted.   Want more?

It's Not Closed Till Money Is in the Bank Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Founders seeking funding will hear yes from an investor. Many founders consider the funding to be done. Founders should move to close the funding and not rest until the funds have been transferred. Many funding commitments never materialize. Issues come up in diligence. The investor has cash flow issues or unexpected expenses. Bad news from the financial markets shakes the investor's confidence. To close the funding, set up a timeline with the investor. Baby step in the process to get the documents signed, the diligence done, and the funds transferred. Remove areas of friction, such as docu-signing the investment documents. Diligence is a key area to watch out for, as new information will come to light. This will have the most impact on an investor's decision. Finally, keep the fundraise going. It's not closed till money is in the bank. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Silicon Bites Ep292 | 2026-02-23 | Russia is closed for business — the war economy that is devouring its own future. Russian opposition economist Vladimir Milov says Russia's economy now runs on one fuel: state war spending. Businesses can't invest, workers are disappearing, interest rates crush enterprise — and the Kremlin doesn't seem to care. The result? A country technically functioning, but economically shutting down, abandoning the core tenets of a market economy, and shedding all vestiges of economic rationality. Russia hasn't been sanctioned into isolation and oblivion. It's reorganising itself into a permanent wartime command economy – destroying all the economic progress of the 1990s. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES:AP News — wartime tax pressure on small business (2026)Reuters Breakingviews — fiscal strain and depletion of reserves (Feb 2026)The Moscow Times — stagnation, falling profits, investment slowdown The Moscow Times — taxes rising and growth ~1% PISM / economic analysis — 21% interest rates, labour shortage Wilson Center — war economy discourages investmentRUSI — inflation driven by war spendingGuardian economic analysis — labour shortages and tax increases Kyiv Independent interview with Vladimir Milov — reserves depletion and investment collapse----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

The Myth of Time Healing: Contrary to popular belief, time alone does not heal betrayal wounds. Assessment responses reveal people still struggling 15, 35, even 40+ years after their betrayal, with statements like "feels like it happened yesterday" and "I'll never trust again."  The Critical Difference: Betrayal recovery requires deliberate, intentional healing—you can't count on time or a new relationship to fix it.  The Problem with Traditional Approaches  Wrong Tools at the Wrong Stage: Even excellent therapeutic tools can backfire when applied at the inappropriate stage of recovery:  Stage 2 (Shock & Trauma): Clients need nervous system regulation, not gratitude exercises or trust-building  Stage 4 (Rebuilding): Clients may not need the same interventions that worked in earlier stages  Why Coaches Struggle: Practitioners often dread seeing betrayal clients because their proven methods aren't working—but it's not the tools, it's the timing. Someone who's been betrayed isn't starting at the same place as other clients.  The Waitlist Initiative  A new waitlist has been created to connect people struggling with betrayal to properly certified coaches and practitioners. The response has been overwhelming, with heartbreaking stories of:  PTSD symptoms 30 years post-betrayal  Closed-off relationships due to family betrayals from decades ago  Lives that "haven't been the same since"  Understanding the Stages  Stage 2: Shock and trauma—nervous system completely dysregulated  Stage 3: Survival mode—functional but flat, no joy. This is where most people get stuck because:  It feels better than the chaos of Stage 2  It's the "familiar known"  Fear of the shakeup change would create  Intentionally ignoring intuition due to lack of bandwidth  The Stage 2-3 Loop: Many people bounce between shock/trauma and survival, like being thrown down a ravine, climbing up, then being thrown down again.  Stage 4 & 5: Hopeful, growth-oriented, forward-moving—but most people don't even know these stages exist.  Why People Stay Stuck  Lack of awareness: They don't know Stage 4 and 5 exist  Familiar vs. good: We choose the familiar known over the unfamiliar unknown, even when it's not serving us  Fear of disruption: New boundaries and standing up for yourself creates a shakeup  Bandwidth concerns: Mental, emotional, physical, or financial limitations  Comparison trap: Stage 3 seems "good enough" compared to Stage 2  The Cost of Staying Stuck  Post Betrayal Syndrome symptoms persist when you ignore your intuition and stay in Stage 3:  Physical illnesses and conditions  Mental and emotional symptoms  Your body communicates through its weakest link  Over 100,000 people tested show consistent symptom patterns  The Reframe  The Weight Loss Analogy: Two friends, both 30 pounds overweight and "fine." One loses the weight and transforms—feels amazing, confident, energized. The other declines help, saying "I'm okay."  The Truth: If you knew for even a minute what Stage 5 felt like, you wouldn't waste another minute in Stage 3.  The Path Forward  Healing requires moving through all five stages with the right support and tools applied at the right time. The goal of the PBT Institute certification program is to get the Five Stages framework into as many qualified hands as possible—because it's not about one person, it's about every certified practitioner reaching everyone in their sphere.  Most Common Betrayal Types  From the waitlist responses:  Family betrayal  Partner betrayal  Note: Early, unhealed betrayals (often in childhood or early relationships) frequently underlie later betrayal experiences—it's often not where you think it started.  Bottom Line: Just because something is familiar doesn't mean it's good. There's something so much better waiting in Stages 4 and 5—but you have to move through the process deliberately and intentionally to get there.  Resources: Join the waitlist: https://thepbtinstitute.com/waitlist/  Grab the book and bonuses: https://thepbtinstitute.com/unstuck/

In this episode, I'm sharing why I decided to shut down my mastermind, Show Up & Lead — a program that generated over $400K and delivered real results for my clients. It was successful. It was profitable. And I chose to end it anyway. Here's what I break down: Why something can “work” on paper and still feel off. The difference between momentum and alignment. How burnout can show up quietly. The questions I asked myself before making the decision. What integrity in business actually looks like. I talk about failure fatigue, mental capacity, and outgrowing a version of your own leadership. This wasn't about drama. It wasn't about revenue. It was about being honest with myself. If you're holding onto something because it's successful — but you know it's not fully aligned — this episode will help you think through that decision clearly and responsibly. ___ Make sure to get on my email list to get reminders of new episodes here: https://cat-del-carmen.mykajabi.com/la-pistola-email-series 1:1 Private Coaching: If you want to grow & scale your business in 2026, work with me.

I'm back with another fortnightly In My Opinion episode - sharing running observations, Q&A and personal updates. Train with Matt: https://sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Private Podcast Feed + Discord: https://www.sweatelite.co/shareholders/ Contact: matt@sweatelite.co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Strava Training Log: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 I wished friends luck at Osaka and Tokyo and spoke about returning to YouTube to document a marathon comeback despite not running yet and feeling imposter syndrome. I explained why I moved away from pro-athlete travel content - doping concerns, COVID restrictions, visa limits and tax complications. The channel is shifting toward my own journey. On training, I addressed the effort vs pace debate. Context matters. Effort leads, especially when fatigued. I spoke about avoiding the anxiety spiral by focusing on sensation and adaptation rather than numbers and judgment. I touched on influencer culture, unnecessary products, and doping speculation - urging caution without proof. I discussed coaching as an optional performance tool, like super shoes, and may use a coach in an advisor role. I'll likely train mostly in standard shoes and race in super shoes. Current context: I'm around 79 kg and believe 65-66 kg aligns with a 2:12-2:15 goal. I reflected on running 2:20 off ~105 km per week in 2021. I'm considering cycling and stair climbing to maintain fitness while reducing impact and avoiding ego-driven mileage. I also covered my 10-year Japan ban, alcohol vs cannabis culture, pre-race nerves, speed after 40, Australia's social media ban for under-16s, and moving Workouts of the Week into a paid Supporters Club to build a healthier community. Closed with plans for stairs, weights and a cold plunge.

This is a Real Ghost Stories CLASSIC EPISODE!As a child, she watched two elderly neighbors being loaded into an ambulance — and at the very same moment, she saw them standing nearby, confused and watching their own bodies.No one believed her. Years later, that ability never went away. It only sharpened.Now, when tragedy strikes, the dead don't wait for séances or rituals. They come to her. Sometimes quietly. Sometimes urgently. And sometimes in the middle of an ordinary evening when she's just trying to forget the horrors of the day.She doesn't claim it's a blessing. She doesn't claim it's a curse. But when someone dies suddenly and doesn't understand what happened… she's often the one they find first. And what they ask isn't always what she expects.#ChildMedium #LifeAfterDeath #SpiritCommunication #RealGhostStories #ParanormalEncounter #GhostlyVisitation #BetweenWorlds #PsychicAbility #AfterTheAmbulance #MediumLifeLove real ghost stories?

She details the massive growth of her brand, including 21,000+ live summit attendees and explosive social media expansion. The interview also addresses AI’s role in finance, healthcare, government, job disruption, and how individuals can future‑proof themselves. Her personal story of overcoming a restrictive ex-husband who told her she would “never speak again” underscores her powerful message: no one should silence your gifts.
