Host Dr. Adam Dorsay interviews developmental psychologist Dr. Alexis Redding, faculty co-chair of higher education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and editor of Mental Health in College, about supporting college student mental health. Redding explains the book emerged from connecting experts who cared about students but weren't in conversation, and argues mental health support matters for student engagement, belonging, retention, and the broader developmental work colleges can foster. Drawing on archival interviews from the 1940s and 1970s and contemporary studies of the classes of 2025–2026, she finds core emotions like loneliness and insecurity during transitions remain consistent across generations, despite changes like COVID and social media. She recommends avoiding a constant crisis narrative, training staff to ask clarifying questions about clinical language, and replacing “kids these days” and “best four years” stories with more nuance and vulnerability.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:49 Meet Alexis Redding02:16 Why This Book Exists04:56 Mental Health Pays Off07:55 Loneliness Then and Now10:37 Roommate Mirror Effect13:45 Transitions Shape Wellbeing16:46 Are Kids Really Different20:33 TikTok Therapy Language26:18 Stop the Crisis Narrative29:29 Ditch Kids These Days35:26 Archeology and Connection38:43 Vulnerability as the Skill43:16 Closing Thanks and SubscribeHelpful Links:Dr. Alexis ReddingMental Health in College - What Research Tells Us About Supporting Students BookDr. Alexis Redding Instagram

Host Pete Deeley welcomes Professor Darien to discuss how lessons from jiu-jitsu transfer to life and how first principles, efficiency, and environment shape learning. Professor Darien emphasizes concepts over flashy techniques, urging beginners to build fundamentals like posture, base, weight distribution, and inside position so submissions become reliable and safer. They compare learning to surfing and chess, highlighting "time on the board," pattern recognition, and applying knowledge through feel rather than memory or forcing outcomes. The conversation explores mindset as staying connected to yourself, observing thoughts, avoiding reactive "shootouts," and seeking truth even when it means admitting you've lost a position. Darien shares experiences training with Howder and an unforgettable hour-long roll with Rickson Gracie, plus how adopting his younger brother helped transform his life into a fight-team leader and UFC Fight Pass competitor.   00:00 Welcome 01:12 Why Jiu Jitsu Transfers 02:50 Teaching Evidence First 03:59 Concepts Before Techniques 06:51 Building Safe Training Culture 08:52 Feel Versus Know 10:21 Fight Your Fight Principles 13:08 Mindset and Self Awareness 15:58 Mind as Radio Frequency 17:18 Teaching Inspiration and Metaphors 19:17 Coaching Focus Structure Weight 20:38 Educated Instincts 21:21 Invisible Jujitsu 23:25 Overthink Good Outcomes 25:34 Chess Like Calmness 28:53 Composure Under Pressure 30:51 Most Memorable Roll 35:26 Students Changed Lives 38:00 Calculated Nickname 38:45 Closing Thanks

Your solar plexus is the seat of your personal power. BUT there's a  hidden trap that can turn sovereignty into a detour from your soul's  true path. Do you know which side of the line you're on? In this livestream, we explore the solar plexus chakra through the lens of soul wisdom, ego, and free will. Being in your power and  living with sovereignty is essential to your spiritual awakening, but there's a subtle snare that you might fall into without realizing it. That trap can lead you astray, alienating you from loved ones and inflating your ego. We'll unpack where personal power ends and  where the ego begins to co-opt the journey, and how your free will  plays a central role in navigating the difference. In this livestream, we'll explore: ✦ The solar plexus chakra as your center of spiritual power ✦ What true sovereignty looks and feels like on the path ✦ The hidden trap that can pull you away from your spiritual purpose ✦ How the ego misuses "power"  ✦ Free will as the key to staying aligned with your soul's wisdom If you're on the path of spiritual awakening and want to go deeper  into the chakra system, this one is not to miss.

After more than a decade of crossing paths at conferences and following each other's work, Theodora Lau finally gets the opportunity to host Sarah Biller, Co-Founder & Member Board of Directors of Fintech Sandbox, and Bank Director and Investor of Thread Bank, on the One Vision Podcast. In this episode, Sarah talks about building innovation ecosystems beyond traditional hubs, including her work in West Virginia and the influence of leaders like Brad Smith and John Chambers. Sarah describes what she looks for in founders. It's about digging deep, listening closely, and finding solutions that truly matter. The conversation turns to AI's rapid adoption in financial services, the shift to agentic AI, risks of replacing human judgment in regulated credit decisions, and the need to prioritize understanding and human-centered outcomes over speed and efficiency. The real constraint on a better financial future isn't AI, it's data, and whoever controls access to it controls the upper hand. And the episode closes on something both Sarah and Theo keep returning to in their work: the fragility of the household balance sheet, the millions of Americans who are one flat tire away from financial distress, and the choice in front of an AI-enabled industry — to widen that gap, or close it.If AI is the most transformative technology any of us will see in our lifetimes., whose financial future are we actually building?

Have you been feeling spiritually “open,” more sensitive, more aware — or even a little discombobulated? In this episode of The Constance Messmer Podcast, we'll take an informative excursion into the Crown Chakra — the gateway to higher consciousness, mysticism, divine connection, and ClairCognizance (clear knowing). I explain how the Crown Chakra spirals upward as a gateway to upper planes of awareness, how the Crown Chakra paired with the 11 Soul Senses can bring clear knowing and insight, and why Crown Chakra activation can sometimes feel like spiritual overwhelm before it becomes clarity. I'll also share with you practical ways to work with this chakra through stillness, meditation, and intentional awareness.

Your body is not a cage for your spirit. It is, in fact, the key to your awakening. In many spiritual communities, the term "meatsuit" gets tossed around. It's become shorthand for the idea that our physical bodies are just temporary vehicles and obstacles we need to transcend.  But that perspective is wrong, and it's actually keeping you from the very spiritual growth you're seeking! In this livestream, we're dismantling the meatsuit fallacy and exploring what spiritual traditions, ancient wisdom, and modern research reveal about the incredible intelligence of the human body:

Currys CEO Alex Baldock & Octopus Energy's Greg Jackson on Retail, Energy, Regulation and AI Jimmy hosts a panel with Currys CEO Alex Baldock and Octopus Energy CEO Greg Jackson on how retail and energy drive jobs, growth and prosperity. Baldock outlines Currys' scale (nearly £10bn sales, 24,000 colleagues) and argues retail employs around 20% of the private sector workforce with rising productivity, but faces policy-driven cost increases, red tape and employment regulation that threaten flexible entry-level jobs. Jackson describes Octopus' rapid growth (8m UK households, operations in 30 countries), the demerger and valuation of its Kraken platform, and diversification into EV leasing and charging. Both stress competition over heavy regulation, cite inefficiencies and distortions in UK energy pricing, discuss geopolitical risks and electrification, and explain how AI is transforming customer service, operations and energy system optimization. 00:00 Welcome and Introductions 03:06 Currys Retail Snapshot 03:41 Retail Jobs and Productivity 05:10 Octopus Energy and Kraken 08:47 Enterprise and Profit Narrative 12:17 Regulation and Competition 17:10 Energy Shocks and Electrification 21:43 Inflation and Cost Pressures 29:36 Employment Costs and Flex Work 36:09 Work Culture and Transparency 41:44 AI Impact on Retail and Energy 49:27 Closing Thanks and Networking Credits: Host / Exec Producer: Jimmy McLoughlin OBE Producer: Sunny Winter https://www.linkedin.com/in/sunnywinter/ Junior Producer: Thuy Dong AP: Ethan Pearman Special thanks to the Margaret Thatcher Conference organising team.

Caitlynne Curtis on ‘You Need Jesus': Sobriety, Songwriting, Jonah's Freestyle & the Pressure of Being the Life of the PartyHost Jason English welcomes Nashville artist Caitlynne Curtis to Curious Goldfish to discuss her new album You Need Jesus, her shift away from relying on TikTok for promotion, and plans for a May acoustic headlining tour selling physical CDs. Curtis explains the album's mix of country and gospel elements, highlights tracks like “Devil You Made,” “Amen,” and “Life of the Party,” and shares how alcohol once helped her cope with attention until a Halloween 2024 blackout became a rock-bottom moment that led to sobriety, church, and reading the Bible. She also describes collaborating with Struggle Jennings, lessons from The X Factor about constant practice and growth, parallels between car sales and promoting music, and her son Jonah's one-take freestyle feature on “Survivor,” emphasizing confidence and future goals.00:00 Party Persona Trap00:46 Podcast Welcome01:52 Meet Caitlynne Curtis03:25 Album Release Check In04:57 Promotion And TikTok06:18 Jonah And Viral Growth07:51 Tour Plans And CDs09:12 Acoustic Tour Origins10:57 Meaning Of You Need Jesus12:33 Halloween Rock Bottom14:09 Sobriety And Fan Connection16:29 Jonah On Survivor17:24 Freestyle Becomes a Song18:16 Parenting Jonah With Confidence20:41 X Factor Resilience Lessons23:52 Sales Skills and Self Belief25:05 Artist Mindset Today25:59 Life of the Party Meaning28:01 Amen and Second Chances28:58 You Need Jesus and Dating30:34 Curiosity Goals and Future32:50 Advice to Younger Self33:50 Closing Thanks and Farewell

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: Religion IS Political [Part VII of VII]This final episode of this series is our response to the point of view that Jesus did not ‘get political'. Jesus (and each of us) cannot avoid being political. We state our “politics” with each stance to either uphold or resist dominator hierarchies. And Jesus' whole ministry can be defined by resistance to any system that placed the life of any human being over the life of any other human being. Listen to this episode to answer for yourself the following questions: Did the actual Jesus of Nazareth embody radical love for all human beings and speak strongly and often about very "political" topics?  Or did claim neutrality in a way that left those of his time uncertain about how he felt about authoritarian power structures and their treatment of "the least of these"? Timestamps:00:00 Welcome and Series Finale02:06 Recap of Episodes One to Six05:01 Liberation Jesus or Empire Mascot06:42 Scripture Lenses and Competing Jesuses08:47 Jesus of Nazareth vs Christ of Empire12:48 Refusing Power and Inner Kingdom20:30 Flattening Margins and Social Norms27:58 Good Samaritan and Bad Laws Today34:42 Challenging Religious Gatekeeping40:05 Taking Jesus Name Through Action43:23 Love Over Fear God Image47:06 Closing Thanks and Fellowship InviteSupport the showSupport the showJoin The Live FellowshipListen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODESFriday Episodes Annual Access $89Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10Valerie's Support & Processing GroupsGift a ScholarshipDownload Free ResourcesVisit our Website

The Tragically Hip On Shuffle - Live Stream: Country DayOne random shuffle lands on the last song on "We Are the Same," and the panel ends up arguing about Bob Rock, Canada Day, and whether Gord wrote a love letter to his producer.Episode Summary On this week's The Tragically Hip On Shuffle live stream, jD and the panel pull 'Country Day', the closing track from 2009's "We Are the Same," and dig into one of the most debated records in the catalogue. The conversation circles the Bob Rock production question first: the smooth backing vocals, the strings, the sense that the band got pushed to the edges of their own album. From there it opens up into three competing readings of the song itself. One hears a straight-up love story. One builds a detailed Indigenous and Canada Day interpretation, rooted in life beside the Alderville First Nation. One reads the whole thing as a coded note from Gord Downie to Bob Rock, threaded through to 'Something More' on "Lustre Parfait." Along the way the group gets into Gord's live vocal in the aired Artpark performance, the band's later run through "Now for Plan A" and "Man Machine Poem," and why a record some fans skip rewards the people who stay. It is a fan-first look at Tragically Hip song meanings, the kind of close listening this community does best. The episode closes with poll results, a spin for next week, and the full version of 'Last of the Unplugged Gems' on the way out.GuestsMike from Haslett, Michigan. A restaurant owner who found The Tragically Hip through a 1996 newspaper clipping his dad mailed him, started at "Day for Night," and has been to 20-plus shows. He hears 'Country Day' as a love song tied to meeting his wife.Jeff from Belleville, Ontario. Lives right beside the Alderville First Nation, which anchors his reading of the song's Indigenous and Canada Day threads.

How Cheque Helps Service Businesses Get Paid Faster with Dynamic Discounting  Adrienne interviews Julia, founder of Cheque, who moved from Sweden to the US after leaving her role at a Stockholm accelerator to start an invoicing platform for service businesses. Drawing on interviews with about 100 service providers, Julia explains how Cheque uses dynamic discounting—letting businesses offer optional discounted net 5 or net 10 terms alongside standard net terms—so clients can pay early for a 1%–3% discount, helping vendors improve cash flow without relying on lines of credit or factoring. They discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, the pain points in existing bookkeeping and invoicing tools, and Cheque's longer-term vision for a “credit exchange without credit” that could route early-payment demand across the platform. Julia shares how to contact her and notes Cheque's free plan and QuickBooks integration. Contact Julia on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/juliadelin/Cheque Website: https://www.chequepay.co/Contact Adrienne on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adriennewilkerson/Beacon Media & Marketing Website: https://www.beaconmm.com/ Follow Beacon Media & Marketing Social Mediahttps://www.linkedin.com/company/beacon-media-marketing/posts/?feedView=allhttps://www.facebook.com/beaconmm/https://www.instagram.com/beaconmm/ 00:00 Welcome and Introductions00:18 Julia's Founder Story01:29 How Cheque Works02:37 Taking the Leap04:02 Entrepreneur Rollercoaster08:14 Big Vision for SMBs09:45 Cash Flow Alternative12:06 Dynamic Discounting Demo16:35 Proactive vs Collections19:51 Credit Exchange Vision21:32 Roadmap and Risk22:39 Free Plan and Contact23:58 Healthcare Use Case27:03 Closing Thanks

In the Coffee House, John-Mark is joined by Brandon Adams and Benedict Allmand-Smith to discuss Covenant Theology, the Sinai/Mosaic covenant, Paul's argument in Galatians 3, the Abrahamic Covenant and its relationship to the New Covenant, and the different views on Abraham and Moses, particularly expressed in the majority Reformed view and the arguments of Meredith Kline. Swim deep in the questions of Reformed Covenant Theology at the Coffee House.Brandon begins by defining the historic “subservient covenant” view: Sinai is distinct from the covenant of grace and serves it by functioning as a typological covenant of works tied to temporal life and blessing in Canaan, conditioned on obedience. They contrast this with the majority historic Reformed view that post-fall covenants are one covenant of grace, and explain competing readings of Galatians 3:10–12 and 3:15–18 (including the “ad hominem” reading). Adams relates Kline's works-principle approach, critiques attempts to separate the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants, and argues Paul's “promise” centers on Christ blessing the nations, distinguishing the historia salutis from the ordo salutis.

Dr. Adam Dorsay introduces SuperPsyched and interviews psychologist, professor, and author Dr. Alan Godwin about his book Ties That Bind: Unraveling Stories That Keep Us in the Dark, focusing on how individuals and societies accept untrue “stories” that merely sound true. Godwin shares growing up in segregated Jackson, Mississippi, where his idyllic childhood coexisted with racial terror across town, illustrating collective normalization of dysfunction. He discusses confirmation bias, motivated reasoning, and how adults construct self-justifying narratives, contrasting Jonathan Rauch's “reality-based community” (evidence, epistemic humility, tolerance for ambiguity) with a “story-based fortress” that discards disconfirming facts and becomes both protection and prison. Using clinical examples like “Katie” and modern cases of relatives drawn into conspiratorial information silos, he emphasizes attachment and identity as drivers of collective deception, argues people are often drawn out by relationships more than information, and concludes that humility is the key skill for better truth-seeking.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:52 Meet Alan Godwin02:42 Growing Up in Jackson05:43 Stories and Lying07:46 Bias and Normalization10:08 Truth Hurts Then Frees12:37 Reality Based Community14:46 Story Based Fortress18:02 Escaping the Fortress20:14 Katie and Personal Healing22:00 Harry Potter Blindness22:50 Accents and Linguistics23:27 From Self Doubt to Uncle Irving24:42 Collective Deception Online26:48 Environment Reveals the Real You28:57 Information Silos and Gaslighting30:58 Attachment and Identity Needs33:57 Sports Fandom as Microcosm36:14 Crowd Seduction and Nazi Rallies38:32 Truth Needs Trusted Relationships40:32 AI Can't Replace Human Connection41:41 Humility as the Ultimate Skill44:35 Closing Thanks and FarewellHelpful Links:Dr. Alan GodwinDr. Alan Godwin LinkedInTies That Blind: Unraveling Stories That Keep Us in the Dark Book

Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? TRE and the Power of Spontaneous Shaking: Richmond Heath on Somatic Stress RecoverySavia Rocks welcomes physiotherapist and TRE Australia founder Richmond Heath to season seven of The Us People Podcast to discuss spontaneous shaking/trembling as an overlooked, positive human recovery reflex. Richmond shares growing up on a farm in Victoria, later developing chronic pain and stress, and experiencing spontaneous movement during Vipassana meditation that shifted his understanding of tension and healing. He explains TRE (Tension/Trauma Release Exercises) as a trauma-informed method that uses simple muscle fatigue to deliberately evoke and regulate tremors, reframing shaking from a symptom of anxiety, shock, or weakness into a mechanism that discharges stress and adrenaline. The conversation covers somatics, polyvagal theory, trauma as immobilization, cultural suppression of shaking, examples from animals and traditional societies, and practical supports like breathwork, mindfulness, exercise, community, and purpose, plus Richmond's TRE online course (trecourse.com) and its global reach.00:00 Welcome to the Podcast02:27 Richmond Heath's Backstory03:35 Pain to Breakthrough10:01 Discovering TRE Purpose14:06 What Is TRE22:26 Shaking and Anxiety31:38 Somatic Explained39:10 Trauma Origins and Inheritance41:34 Practical Stress Tools44:39 Happiness Through Service46:47 Why TRE Calms Fast48:18 Beyond Mindfulness Limits49:40 COVID Shift to Online54:05 Polyvagal Science Basics56:22 Freeze Response Explained01:01:25 Everyday Trauma Example01:04:33 Why Adults Suppress Shaking01:06:54 Authenticity and Reawakening01:14:12 Key Takeaways and Utero Movement01:19:11 How to Learn TRE01:23:14 Closing Thanks and Outro01:25:51 End Credits and Final ReflectionThank you so much Richmond for teaching us that Trauma show be shown freely in order to heal ourselves - Savia RocksWebsite: https://www.treaustralia.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/TRE-Australia/100057615902736/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tre_australia/?hl=enLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richmond-heath-08719326/Support the show

What lies beyond the veil? And what happens when we actually experience it firsthand?  In this live session, Kara Goodwin shares personal multidimensional encounters including a profound direct experience of what she understood as the space-time continuum, and shares what she saw relating to how your vibrational frequency invisibly shapes every layer of your life. True consciousness expansion comes as a lived experience, rather than just learning things with our mind. But here's why I want to share my own multidimensional experiences of expanded consciousness with you: when someone shares an authentic account of stepping beyond the veil, it plants a seed in the listener. I've experienced this for myself, and I am happy to pay that forward. That seed then eventually begins to germinate and sprout, allowing them have their own multidimensional experience.

In Part 2, Kyle and Brent Pease go beyond the race course and into the harder terrain — the screaming match in a New York City taxi after a broken wheelchair nearly ended their marathon, the board member who called every morning during school drop-off, and what it actually takes to build an organization that can run without you. This is where the mission meets the mechanics, and where two brothers figure out how to grow up together in public. In this episode: How Kyle and Brent built the Kyle Pease Foundation from scratch — including the nine months it took to help their very first family, the decision to race at least once a month to create visibility, and how they've grown from six events in 2013 to 64 events across 14 states last year The New York City Marathon story: the wheelchair broke mid-race, Brent spent an hour trying to fix it with help from the NYPD, and eventually told Kyle he was done — and what Kyle said back that got them across the finish line Brent's framework for hiring in a nonprofit: passion for the mission matters more than fit for the role, and for every non-disabled hire, he wants to add another employee with a disability doing real work — not stuffing envelopes The Dick Hoyt lesson — the father behind the famous push-assist duo called Brent before the 2018 IRONMAN World Championship and gave him these words of advice: "just keep pushing the pedals" How Kyle became the athlete-coach he is today: years of sitting on the sidelines, listening to adults talk, and watching his brother compete gave him an observer's precision that most coaches never develop Support the Kyle Pease Foundation Dwayne is matching donations — up to $5,000 total.

Motherhood and Medicine: Burnout, Balance, and Building a VillageIn a Mother's Day compilation for The Girl Doc Survival Guide, Christine announces her book Love Language releasing August 4 and dedicated to her mother, then shares reflections from multiple episodes on being a physician and a mother. Dr. Tom Helm notes a family legacy of physicians and observes medicine's shift to  female trainees, while acknowledging the difficulty of combining family and career. Dr. Ilona Friedan and others describe how parenting can feel harder than clinical work, the lack of a “manual” for childcare and compromises, and the myth of having it all at once. Dr. Oksana Babenko frames burnout as widespread and individualized, emphasizing autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Guests stress self-kindness, self-care (including exercise), asking for help, supportive colleagues, outsourcing and childcare “villages,” supportive partners, and accepting that doing one's best is necessary.00:00 Mothers Day Intro00:28 Generations of Women Doctors01:25 Becoming a Mom in Medicine03:28 Burnout and Basic Needs04:11 Physician Mom Realities06:40 Self Compassion and Limits07:45 Personalized Burnout Recovery09:01 Self Care and Exercise09:45 Ask for Help and Coverage10:34 Build Your Village11:50 Supportive Partner Matters12:40 Best Is Good Enough13:08 Closing Thanks

Dr. Adam Dorsay introduces SuperPsyched and interviews psychologist and ADHD expert Dr. Ari Tuckman about ADHD and productivity, focusing on the gap between knowing and doing and the consequences of untreated ADHD, including broad health and life risks. Tuckman distinguishes ordinary forgetfulness from ADHD as an exacerbation of universal problems, urges taking ADHD seriously without taking it personally, and explains why impatience and shame can build from repeated “missing the mark” moments. They discuss practical strategies for reliability and punctuality, emphasizing intention, realistic planning, saying no, and “feeling the future.” Tuckman contrasts evidence-based treatments (especially stimulant medication, plus therapy, sleep, exercise, mindfulness) with largely unsupported alternatives (supplements, brain training, dietary fixes, chiropractic claims). He outlines differential diagnosis considerations (sleep issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar, autism) and recommends thorough interviews over costly testing batteries, offering tools like analog clocks to externalize time.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:28 Why ADHD Matters01:12 Meet Dr Ari Tuckman02:50 Forgetfulness vs ADHD03:58 Why Ari Chose ADHD05:34 Adult ADHD Then and Now07:40 Impatience and Self Criticism10:18 Actually Being On Time12:40 Planning Paradox Tips16:47 Feeling the Future19:12 Treatments vs Alternatives21:14 Costs of Untreated ADHD22:23 Medication Without Shame23:59 Glasses Denial Story24:56 Diet and Microbiome Reality26:39 Supplements and Other Myths28:50 Ruling Out Lookalikes32:51 Getting a Proper Diagnosis34:54 Practical Time Tools36:54 Living Well With ADHD39:16 Intentions Versus Impact42:12 Closing Thanks and SubscribeHelpful Links:Dr. Ari TuckmanThe ADHD Productivity Manual Book

Sean Azzaro and Barron Wiley discuss how Christians can engage entertainment like Star Wars and Harry Potter with discernment, using it as an opportunity to help kids think biblically and critically rather than avoiding everything outright. They explore what it means to “share your faith, use words if necessary,” emphasizing that lifestyle matters but the New Testament also calls believers to speak about Jesus. The conversation compares different approaches to evangelism—from street-corner preaching to relational, everyday conversations—and highlights witnessing as simply telling what you've seen God do. Sean shares examples of praying for others, his son Ryan leading someone to Christ through casual invitations, and the need for churches and believers to rely on the Holy Spirit's power (Acts 1:8) and not fear or shame. 00:00 Welcome and Banter00:45 Star Wars and The Force03:25 Harry Potter Discernment06:54 Talk Faith Naturally08:37 Street Preaching Debate11:23 Everyday Evangelism Stories13:19 Great Commission As You Go19:27 Church Culture Shift22:26 Spirit Empowered Witness24:08 Mothers Day and Church Info25:09 Closing Thanks

Are you experiencing a strong sense of spiritual awakening and wondering if you are a starseed?  Many starseeds feel an intense connection to the universe and a deep desire to fulfill their starseed mission. Those who identify as indigo children or crystal children often exhibit starseed signs, such as a strong intuition and a feeling of not belonging to this world.  As we journey through the process of ascension, it's common to experience a range of spiritual awakening signs, from feeling a sudden surge in creativity to experiencing vivid dreams and visions. If you are a Lyran starseed, Pleiadian starseed, Arcturian starseed, or Andromedan (like me!), you may be experiencing a unique set of signs and symptoms that are guiding you towards your higher purpose.  In this video, we will explore some signs that could suggest you are a starseed, and provide guidance on how to navigate your spiritual awakening and fulfill your starseed mission.  Get the insight and guidance you need to understand your place in the universe and fulfill your spiritual potential.

Dr. Adam Dorsay hosts SuperPsyched and interviews University of Nevada, Reno linguistics professor and author Dr. Valerie Fridland about her book "Why We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind Our Accents" and how accents shape identity. Fridland explains the title stems from how people label unfamiliar speech as “funny,” drawing on her upbringing in the South with French-speaking parents and the stigma and pride tied to Southern speech. She describes how children first learn language rhythms and sounds from parents (even in utero), then around ages four to five shift toward peer influence through “vernacular reorganization,” often retaining small traces of family speech. Fridland outlines how American regional dialects developed from settlement patterns and later cultural inputs, and discusses how comedians and politicians use marked accents to invoke stereotypes and solidarity. She also notes psycholinguistic research on cognitive fluency affecting judgments of trustworthiness, plus links between personality and speech features like fillers, and how familiarity drives perceptions of linguistic beauty.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:28 Why Accents Fascinate Us01:21 Meet Valerie Fridland02:40 Growing Up With Accents06:23 Parents vs Peers10:50 How Kids Shift Accents14:50 Origins of US Dialects17:09 Colonies and Cultural Roots23:11 Melting Pot and Language Loss25:03 Why Accents Sound Funny29:50 Solidarity and Authenticity33:15 Accent Bias and Fluency38:10 Closing Thanks and SubscribeHelpful Links:Valerie Fridland, PhDWhy We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind Our Accents Book

Host Edith welcomes returning guest Caroline Ailanthus to discuss her new epic fantasy novel The Elf, the Dwarf and the Telegraph: Book One, the first in a trilogy. Caroline explains the story's large scope and ensemble cast, centered on three protagonists including Gwen, a transgender half-elf with a sword, in a quasi-Roman world on the brink of civil war driven by environmental justice, conservation, science, and threats to democracy. She reads an excerpt depicting a republic's destabilization and autocratic takeover aided by oligarchs, noting historical inspirations from Sherman, Grant, Lincoln, and Julius Caesar and arguing that environmental problems and political instability are connected. Caroline describes her writing process, research-heavy historical models, spreadsheet character tracking, and structuring one arc into three books, and highlights deliberate Tolkien signals, immersive “history-like” worldbuilding, adult tone without explicit sex, and neurodivergent representation through human/elf/dwarven (“Deger”) neurological differences.00:00 Welcome Back Caroline00:54 What the Book Is About03:42 Fantasy Meets Politics08:59 Reading the Prologue11:09 Origins of the Trilogy15:09 Autocrats and History Rhymes22:44 Timeless Fantasy Themes27:47 Writing Process and Characters31:40 Being Kind to Readers32:35 Managing Character POVs33:47 From Standalone to Trilogy34:37 Civil War Research Scale37:53 Where to Split Books41:35 Is Tolkien Still King45:11 Dwarves and Representation48:26 Dark Ages and Paper53:42 Why Read This Book57:03 Neurodivergent Protagonists59:55 Closing Thanks and WrapIf you like what we do, you might consider buying us a coffee.

**Boys and Girls, We're Back! Tyler from MORRFlate Returns – Tire Inflation Wars, Copycats, Patents & Off-Road Innovation** We're back with another awesome episode of the Jeep Talk Show! Tyler from MORRFlate joins us again for a raw, honest conversation about building a business in the off-road world, dealing with big-time copycats, patent battles, and why competition (the right kind) actually drives innovation. Tyler has been wheeling Toyotas all over California since he was a kid, lives close to the Rubicon Trail, runs NorCal 4x4 Rescue, co-hosts the Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast, and has poured serious support into trail advocacy. In this return visit (first one was back in September 2025), he opens up about getting threatened by a major player, the reality of enforcing patents, and how a $3M company competes against $45M giants with deep marketing pockets. We dive deep into: - How MORRFlate's 4-tire inflation/deflation system works (connects all four tires as one big air tank, equalizes pressure automatically, saves massive time on the trail) - The frustration of direct copies (even stealing the signature neon green color) - Why patents aren't the silver bullet everyone thinks - Airflow limitations of Schrader valves and future ideas to fix the bottleneck - Building a company from a garage condo to a team of 8+ with a warehouse in Sacramento - Lifetime warranties, obsessive quality control, and hiring fellow off-roaders - AI chatbots on the website, robots in manufacturing, and how AI is changing marketing and product design Tyler also shares his 30-second elevator pitch: MORRFlate makes airing up and down your tires super convenient so you can actually enjoy the trail instead of babysitting a compressor. If you've ever deflated for traction, fought with individual tire hoses, or dreamed of faster air-ups on your Jeep, Toyota, or any rig — this one's for you. **Timestamps:** 00:00:00 Show Opening 00:00:10 Misnaming Moore Flat 00:00:31 Tyler's Background & Sales 00:01:19 Previous Interview & Threats 00:02:06 Acquisition Threat & Patent Journey 00:03:08 Patent Approval & Copycats 00:04:01 Company Name Confidential 00:04:33 Patent Enforcement Costs 00:05:21 Competition and Innovation 00:06:35 Amazon Listings & Pricing 00:08:03 RealTruck Ownership Impact 00:09:12 Podcast Monetization Issues 00:09:41 Morfleet Product Overview 00:11:07 Tire Deflation Benefits 00:12:59 Airflow Limits of Valves 00:13:28 Air Tank Volume Calculations 00:14:43 Limited Tank Capacity Demo 00:15:46 Compressor Performance Insights 00:16:24 Personal Projects & Ideas 00:17:40 Upcoming Valve Projects 00:19:07 Valve Interior Flow Restriction 00:21:41 Heavy Equipment Valve Solutions 00:23:48 Apex Rapid Valve Review 00:24:15 Challenges with Large Tires 00:24:59 Passion for Problem Solving 00:29:04 Warehouse & Quality Control 00:34:48 Lifetime Warranty Strategy 00:37:02 Customer Focus Assurance 00:38:22 Employee Attitude Culture 00:39:50 Testing Competitor Gear 00:40:51 People-Centric Philosophy 00:43:28 Corporate vs Small Business 00:44:07 Politics and Truth 00:45:47 Vendor Conflict Over Copying 00:49:05 AI Chatbot Deployment 00:50:30 AI, Quality Control & Robotics 00:53:25 AI in Product Design 00:54:51 AI Impact on Jobs 00:57:45 Minimum Wage Debate 00:58:49 Digital Media & AI 01:02:40 Show Recap & Future 01:04:25 Closing Thanks 01:06:38 Final Thanks & Friendship 01:09:02 Interview Conclusion **Links:** - MORRFlate Official Site: https://morrflate.com/ (Check out the Quad hose kits, Air Hub, and play with their AI chatbot!) - Tyler on Instagram/X: @4x4ToyotaTyler - MORRFlate on Social: @morrflate - Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast: Search "Snail Trail 4x4" on your favorite platform (830+ episodes!)

On Pushing Forward with Alycia, Alycia Anderson welcomes writer and teacher Molly Gaudry, founder of Lit Pub and author of We Take Me Apart and Fit Into Me: A Novel: A Memoir, to discuss storytelling, identity, and memory. Molly shares being born in Korea, adopted, and growing up in northeast Ohio, where early language acquisition and school support shaped her love of reading and writing. Molly recounts a 2011 concussion that led to months of double vision and sensory overload. She eventually addressed it through vision therapy and an exploratory study at the University of Utah that taught coping strategies rather than a cure. She reflects on how the injury reshaped her boundaries, pace, and happiness. From Challenge to Change

Send us Fan MailWhat does it really mean to show up as a father of daughters?In this episode of The Daughtered Podcast, I sit down with Yusef Marshall—host of One on One with Mr. Yu, certified high-performance coach, leadership coach, minister, speaker, and proud father of three daughters, to dive deep into fatherhood, legacy, and what it takes to raise strong, confident daughters in today's world.Yusef brings over 25 years of coaching, leadership, and life experience to this conversation, but more importantly, he brings the perspective of a man who has walked the road of raising daughters into adulthood... and now into grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.We talk about the biggest mistakes fathers make with daughters, why many men take a passive role in parenting girls, how fathers shape the standard their daughters will one day look for in relationships, and why being present matters far more than simply being a provider.This is a real conversation about growth, responsibility, and becoming the kind of man your daughters need.If you're a father trying to become stronger, more mindful, and more present—this episode is for you.Connect with Yusef Marshall:

In this Resilience Unravelled episode, Russell Thackeray interviews Australia-based Dr. Rosina McAlpine, a PhD educator and former academic, about supporting working parents and raising resilient children.MacAlpine describes her shift from business-school research to parenting after facing conflicting newborn advice, leading her to write Inspired Children and develop Win Win Parenting.She contrasts parenting styles—authoritarian, authoritative (best outcomes), laissez-faire, and neglectful—emphasising that authoritative parenting teaches values, empathy, and resilience. She outlines her practical “SEE” framework: Stop (self-regulate), Empathise (connect), Educate (teach life skills).The conversation links parenting and leadership, discusses workplace equity versus resentment, gender inequality and lack of support after parental leave, and Australia's new minimum age for social media to reduce harms like bullying, anxiety, and body-image issues. MacAlpine's website offers resources and programs for leaders to build family-friendly cultures.00:00 Welcome And Introductions00:49 Reina Mission And Background02:47 Doctorate And Pivot To Parenting03:12 Parenting Styles Explained07:41 Parents As Family Leaders08:58 Workplace Wellbeing Gaps11:22 No Parenting Training Problem14:23 See Method Stop Empathise Educate18:48 Workplace Parenting Boundaries22:06 Non Parents And Support Debate24:35 Work Stress Spillover25:21 Equity Not Parental Perks27:39 Fairness Conflicts and Rosters28:37 Practical Equity Tweaks30:22 Gender Equality Reality Check31:05 Motherhood Career Penalty35:23 Women Supporting Women36:50 Parenting Values and Competition39:31 Social Media Age Ban41:32 Building Resilience and Literacy44:02 Win Win Parenting Mission45:50 Closing Thanks and WrapYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com#resilience, #burnout, #intuition

Alicia sits down with Kirsten Thulborn, Group Design Manager at Intuit, for a rare look at how QuickBooks' user interface actually gets built — from the research behind terminology changes like "post" replacing "add," to why some friction in the UI is intentional. Kirsten pulls back the curtain on how her team balances the needs of power users (accountants and bookkeepers) with small business owners who just want to send an invoice, and what she'd redesign from scratch if she could. Plus: why UI changes feel so disruptive, the technology adoption curve, and the story behind the QuickBooks feature you've probably never noticed.SponsorsWurthy - https://uqb.promo/wurthy(00:00) - Meet Kirsten From Intuit (02:41) - Her Role And Products (03:38) - Career Path At QuickBooks (10:18) - Designing For Power Users (11:52) - Sharing New Features Better (18:05) - Where Feedback Goes (21:06) - Writing Great Feedback (24:08) - Balancing Beginners And Pros (26:34) - Business View War Story (28:51) - Designing Shared Interfaces (29:25) - Why We Say Post (31:39) - Testing UI Changes (35:55) - Why Updates Feel Emotional (39:08) - AI and Future Workflows (43:04) - AI Adoption Curve Explained (48:26) - Redesigning Setup Onboarding (51:43) - A Customer Delight Moment (53:25) - Closing Thanks and Signoff LINKSAlicia's Upcoming Classes4/28/26: Converting from QBDT to QBO: http://royl.ws/QBDT2QBO?affiliate=5393907We want to hear from you!Send your questions and comments to us at unofficialquickbookspodcast@gmail.com.Join our LinkedIn community at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14630719/Visit our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@UnofficialQuickQBOPodcast?sub_confirmation=1Sign up to Earmark to earn free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://www.earmark.app/onboarding 

On the Contacts Coaching Podcast, Half Moon Bay athletic director Mike Barragan shares his path from being an undersized multi-sport athlete to coaching Little League, high school baseball (including at South San Francisco High), and eventually becoming AD in his hometown. He discusses lessons from varied sports and jobs (restaurants, construction, special education), the value of sociology for empathy and reading people, and why he strongly promotes multi-sport participation—especially at small schools where rosters and program health depend on it. Barragan describes navigating relationships with alumni coaches and parents, balancing what's best for individual athletes versus the program, and using team culture practices like bonding meals. He also explains recent focus on improving sportsmanship amid growing trash talk and social media-driven behavior at games.00:00 Podcast Welcome00:45 Mike's Sports Roots04:43 Tony Gwynn Moment05:15 First Coaching Break06:57 Hometown Coaching Drama08:48 Carlmont Reality Check10:51 Teaching and Varsity Leap14:38 Back to Half Moon Bay15:00 Becoming Athletic Director16:59 San Diego Detour20:49 Life Skills and Empathy23:08 Multi Sport Advocacy29:53 Program vs Kid First31:37 Program First Culture32:02 Leading Without Micromanaging33:19 Parents Communication Balance34:33 Coaching Nuggets Learned37:24 Cuts Roles and Development42:44 Alumni Town Dynamics48:52 Sportsmanship Stand58:26 Closing Thanks and Wrap

182 The Timely Presence: Year-Long Grief Support and Showing Up After Loss Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, interviews Kelly Edmondson, RN, a bereaved mother and certified grief counselor who founded The Timely Presence, a year-long grief support service. Kelly shares formative experiences with death in trauma ICU, including an 18-year-old dying on Christmas as his family arrived, and later the death of her son Darius in 2023, which led her to focus on supporting people through milestone days. She explains how The Timely Presence provides one-time-purchase collections tailored to relationships (parent/child, spouses/partners, infant pregnancy loss, and other close relationships), delivering 3–6 heirloom-quality personalized gifts over a year, ending on the loss anniversary, with reminders to the gift giver. Kelly discusses practical gift examples, expanding interest in pet loss, and guidance for supporting grieving people: say the loved one's name, listen without trying to fix grief, avoid comparisons, and recognize grief has no timeline. 00:00 Welcome and Disclaimer 00:44 Meet Kelly Edmondson RN 02:15 Christmas ICU Turning Point 05:18 The Call That Changed Everything 07:27 Mother's Day and Finding Purpose 10:37 Building The Timely Presence 15:07 How the Service Works 17:28 What's Inside the Gifts 21:08 Grief Counseling and Pet Loss 23:58 Say Their Name and Remember 30:29 What to Say to Grievers 34:14 Where to Find Timely Presence 35:52 Closing Thanks and Subscribe https://thetimelypresence.com/shop/   If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

Alycia Anderson introduces an episode of Pushing Forward with Alycia focused on “glass children,” siblings of disabled kids who often advocate naturally while sometimes feeling invisible, and interviews Meghan Connolly Haupt, founder of Inclusive Saratoga. Meghan shares how her 13-year-old daughter's question sparked Meghan to use her 30-year social impact marketing background to help businesses and communities improve disability inclusion. They discuss how “separate but equal” still limits shared experiences, how loneliness and separation affect disabled people daily, and why barriers are often cultural as much as physical. Meghan explains an empathy-plus-creativity approach, offers low-cost accessibility fixes, and outlines the business case and closes with “relentless forward progress.” The Heart of this Episode

Most entrepreneurs don't burn out because the business gets too hard — they burn out because they never stopped being the operator. In this keynote, recorded live at the LeanScaper Operations Intensive in Cape Coral, Florida, Dwayne Kerrigan makes the case that the real battle isn't strategic, it's psychological. Until you understand the most powerful force in the human condition, no framework, system, or tool will save you. In this episode: Dwayne breaks down the operator's mindset vs. the owner's mindset — and why operators get tired while owners get rich Why your purpose has to be large enough to keep you out of "the tyranny of how" — the trap that pulls owners back into the weeds The identity principle Dwayne calls the single most important lesson from 10+ years at Tony Robbins' side: the most powerful force in the human condition is to remain congruent with how we identify ourselves The event–meaning–emotion–behavior chain, and how changing the meaning you attach to an event changes your results How physiology, language, and focus (the triad) function as your meaning-making filter — and how to use them to access empowering states more consistently Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Purpose Over How 00:27 - Podcast Welcome 00:59 - Event Introduction 02:53 - Dwayne Takes Stage 04:12 - Finding The Why 05:40 - Mentors And Lessons 08:58 - Business Root Causes 11:55 - Operator Vs Owner 14:48 - Core Values And Purpose 19:37 - Identity Drives Action 21:20 - Bus Fight Identity Shift 24:14 - Reframing a Past Bully 25:17 - Identity and No Negotiation 25:51 - Procrastination Becomes Identity 27:47 - Event Meaning Emotion Loop 31:34 - The Triad Explained 32:45 - Physiology Power Positions 36:31 - Energy Thermostat and Mirroring 40:47 - Language Questions Shape Reality 45:21 - Focus Habits and Meaning 47:49 - Closing Thanks and Disclaimer Resources Mentioned: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People — Stephen Covey Keith Cunningham — referenced as the "Rich Dad" in Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad Tony Robbins — Platinum Partners immersion program Simon Sinek — referenced in the context of finding your why John Grinder — creator of NLP, mirroring and matching technique LMN (Landscape Management Network) — referenced by Dwayne and Mark Bradley Quotes: “Taking your passion and turning it into a business is usually not a good wealth strategy.” - Dwayne Kerrigan “If you stand like this for 10 minutes a day, it will increase your testosterone 20%. You can look this up. This is true 20%. It'll increase your testosterone. If you stand like this, it will reduce your cortisol from anywhere from 23 to 25% and it will increase the odds of you being able to make a decision by 33%.” - Dwayne Kerrigan “I'm in the ground and I'm down there and I'm like, and I remember thinking, and through the course of this whole thing, this whole event, is that I am never, ever going to get beaten up again.

What happens when music becomes more than just something you listen to—and starts shaping how you think, feel, and show up in your life? In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with Numa Palmer, an international singer, songwriter, and artist, to explore how she uses music as a powerful form of expression to resonate positivity and connect with people across cultures. But this conversation goes deeper than music. Numa shares what she's learned about personal responsibility, the impact of daily choices, and how the things we consume—especially music—shape how we think, feel, and experience the world. From awareness to ownership, this episode offers a powerful look at how your choices, your environment, and your expression all play a role in the life you're creating. This episode is about becoming more intentional, trusting your voice, and recognizing that what you allow in—mentally and emotionally—matters more than you think.
