Eric Olander, editor-in-chief of the China Global South Project, joins the pod to discuss the developments on the other side of the globe. From Ho Chi Minh City, Eric explains how the Global South actually sees the US-Iran war, why nobody expects China to ride to anyone's rescue, and how Vietnam's tariff and energy shocks became a never-again moment. He and Jacob dig into the myth that tariffs can implode China, America's fading China literacy, and why the next order won't be Chinese-led - but China will be its transformational character.*Note: There are some weird buzzing sounds in the pod, we know!

On this episode of CFO at Home, Vince's guest is attorney Stephanie Prestridge of Life Claim, who helps families when life insurance benefits are delayed, denied, or disputed after a death. Stephanie shares how seeing her typically strong grandmother get overwhelmed by legal matters after her grandfather's Parkinson's diagnosis shaped her shift into estate-related work with an emphasis on a client-centered approach. Vince and Stephanie then discuss the importance of estate and financial planning working together, with direct communication between attorneys and financial advisors. They also discuss what happens when someone dies without clear documentation, and some of the reasons life insurance claims get held up. Their conversation wraps up with Stephanie discussing the importance of reviewing policies with a financial advisor and, most importantly, telling someone the policy exists.

You Can Feel at Home in This MomentToday we're exploring a quiet but powerful truth: you don't have to feel at home to be at home. So many of us spend our lives searching for belonging — waiting until we reach a certain place, achieve a certain thing, or find a certain people before we let ourselves relax and feel like we truly belong. But what if home isn't a destination? What if it's a state of being you can access right now, exactly where you are?We'll gently unpack the habit of looking for peace outside ourselves, and try a simple breathwork practice to help you reconnect with that inner sense of ease and belonging — the kind of home that travels with you wherever you go.---TOPICS: belonging, peace, presence, self-compassion, letting go, mindfulness, home, inner safety---AFFIRMATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:• I feel at home in my own skin.• My sense of belonging is not dependent on anyone else's approval.• I carry peace with me wherever I go.• I am exactly where I need to be in this moment.• Home is not a place I have to earn. It is my natural state.• I release the need to perform or pretend in order to belong.• I am allowed to take up space exactly as I am.• I belong to this moment, and this moment has been waiting for me.---TIMESTAMPS:[00:00] Opening[01:15] Settling In[02:30] The Theme — Belonging Lives Inside You[05:00] Breathwork — Breathing in a Sense of Home[06:30] Affirmations[07:15] Closing---Thank you for spending this quiet moment with us.

The Barbault Basket is more than a cosmic event. It is an invitation.In this special episode, I'll explore Barbault's Basket, a major cosmic configuration peaking July 19–21, 2026, and its invitation for spiritual awakening, collective consciousness, social justice, environmental awareness, peace, and conscious participation. This reminds us that awakening is not just about psychic gifts or expanded awareness — it is about bringing higher consciousness into our homes, communities, choices, and shared world.I'm no astrologer, but as a voice for the greater awakening I'm connecting this cosmic moment to my recent Soul Yoga 12 chakra journey, especially the upper chakras and cosmic consciousness, where we begin to understand our interconnectedness and the impact of our choices.This episode asks a powerful question: The Barbault Basket is an invitation of choice. What will be your RSVP?

HIV prevention advocate Siviwe Gaika urges policymakers, governments, and donors to expand the HIV prevention “choice basket,” emphasizing long-acting injectable PrEP (cabotegravir) as WHO-recommended, safe, and highly effective, and calling for funding, youth-friendly delivery, streamlined national guidelines, and transparent accountability; she also acknowledges Glggobal Fund investment and South Africa's commitment to long-acting innovation and local manufacturing. In the AIDS 2060 episode, host Ben interviews APHA executive director Yvette Raphael about why the world is not on track to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030, the impact of shifting U.S. funding, and the need for country-led responses, health sovereignty, and dignity for key populations. Raphael centers feminist prevention advocacy, the Choice Manifesto, intergenerational leadership, better trial inclusion and post-trial access, and warns about misinformation on social media. 00:00 Youth Prevention Reality 00:55 Meet Yvette Raphael 02:21 Are We On Track 06:02 Funding Shockwaves 08:39 Self Reliance Now 12:04 Southern Led Response 15:55 Why Prevention Matters 20:41 Choice Manifesto Fight 23:15 Africa As A Market 25:51 Youth Boom Stakes 30:12 Let Youth Lead 31:49 Mentoring Future Leaders 33:01 Message to Our Future Selves 34:27 Pregnancy in Clinical Trials 38:25 Post Trial Access Rights 40:53 Why Youth Still Fear HIV 42:27 Social Media Misinformation 45:58 Health Sovereignty and Aid 50:31 Documenting Community Lessons 52:47 Pan African Collaboration 55:22 Let Young People Thrive 57:00 Closing Thanks and Next Steps Advocates for the Prevention of HIV in Africa https://www.apha.org.za Check Out Ben's Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

In this episode, Jennifer Saha interviews Jordan Burris, who leads Socure's public sector business using AI to verify identity and predict fraud risk, drawing on his prior work in digital trust and as chief of staff to the U.S. CIO. Burris argues fraudsters—helped by digitized services and modern AI tools—are outpacing government, making old identity-proofing standards and “bouncer-at-the-club” checks insufficient at scale. They discuss how pandemic-era “pay and chase” benefit delivery created losses that are often unrecoverable once funds move overseas, and why agencies must shift to layered, preventative controls that reduce friction for legitimate users. Burris cites efforts in California (EDD, CalHEERS/ACA enrollment, DMV) and other states, and emphasizes sharing risk signals across agencies and with transparent vendor partners without broad PII transfer. He predicts success will mean manageable fraud rates and better citizen experience, with accountability led by senior agency leadership and organization-wide vigilance similar to cybersecurity. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:28 Jordan Burris Background 02:55 Why Fraud Is Surging 05:43 How Identity Checks Fail 07:49 Pay and Chase Breakdown 11:42 Building Prevention Programs 13:47 States Leading the Way 17:58 Breaking Data Silos 23:32 Five Year Fraud Outlook 26:06 Who Owns Fraud Risk 29:31 Closing Thanks and Wrap

This is not about finding yourself. It is about remembering who you are.In this episode of The Constance Messmer Podcast, I close out our 12-week Soul Yoga journey through the 12 chakras with a soulful, spirit-led reflection on what the chakra system really reveals.The chakras are not just spinning energy centers. They hold your life experiences, soul memories, spiritual gifts, vows, promises, wisdom, patterns, and potential. I revisit the full chakra journey — Earth, Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Brow, Crown, Higher Self, Karmic, Cosmic, and Divine — and invite you to ask once again: What is my true self? What is stored in my energy? What am I here to reclaim?

Today on the Plant Cunning Podcast, Isaac and AC welcome back Will Morris, PhD, DAOM, MSEd, LAc, RH, a interdisciplinary healer and scholar whose work spans traditional Western and Vedic astrology, Chinese medicine, pulse diagnosis, sound healing, and education. Will explains his compulsive, spiritually driven path across traditions and how transdisciplinary study reveals shared underlying structures, including medical frameworks of location, process, and severity and recurring 12-fold patterns across nature and culture. He critiques mainstream scientific testing of astrology as method-driven, politically shaped, and often logically flawed, arguing the right assessment depends on the question and may require qualitative approaches. The conversation explores intuition, divination versus science, horary use in clinical settings, dreamwork and oneirobotany, mugwort's shamanic origins, catnip's “wind” associations, and Will's upcoming books, including Evidence Ecology: Science and Astrology.02:10 Why Study Many Traditions?03:39 Life Path Music to Astrology08:36 The Benefits of Transdisciplinary Studies12:00 The Science Industry and Astrology13:13 Is Astrology Divination or Science?19:31 Testing Astrology Properly27:59 Clinical Astrology in Practice31:07 Book of Dreams and Yesod32:48 Dreamwork Pulse and Herbs36:59 Sedative Herbs Mix37:10 Catnip and Wind Pathology39:08 Eight Winds and Charts40:32 Wind as Science Debate41:23 Dream Plants: Mugwort42:17 Dybbuk Clearing Story44:58 Artemisia and Dreamwork49:08 Cycles and Plant Motion51:47 Pan Celestial Thesis01:01:24 Land, Climate and Relocation01:05:16 Universalism vs Relativism01:08:15 Books and Future Projects01:13:45 Closing Thanks

YOUR QUIET MOMENT — EPISODE 98: You Are Enough Episode 98 — You Are Enough Today we're exploring something that so many of us need to hear, especially on the days when the weight of striving feels endless. Today we're talking about why you are enough — not because of what you do, but because of who you are. You've been working so hard. Maybe you've been pushing yourself to be stronger, more patient, more accomplished. But somewhere along the way, you started believing that who you are right now isn't quite good enough. This episode is a gentle reminder that your worth was never earned. It was never something you had to prove. It was always already there. We'll talk about the revolutionary act of showing up as you are — messy, imperfect, real — and why being is always enough. We'll also do a grounding breathwork session and close with affirmations you can carry into your day. Close your eyes. Take a breath. And let yourself land in this truth: you are enough. --- TONIGHT'S AFFIRMATIONS I am enough exactly as I am. I do not need to earn my own approval. My worth is not measured by my productivity. I am allowed to rest without guilt. I am allowed to take up space. I release the need to be perfect. I am worthy of love without conditions. --- TIMESTAMPS [00:00] Opening — A moment to just breathe [01:15] Settling In — Letting the noise drop [03:30] The Theme Part One — You are enough because of who you are [13:00] The Theme Part Two — Being, not doing, is enough [19:30] Breathwork — A grounding breath [21:00] Affirmations — Let these settle in [24:00] Closing — Thank you for being here --- HASHTAGS #YourQuietMoment #SelfCompassion #YouAreEnough #Mindfulness #Relaxation #SleepMeditation #CalmMind #InnerPeace #GentleGuidance #DailyAffirmations #SelfWorth #MeditationForBeginners #StressRelief #QuietMoment #LettingGo --- Produced by Hustle Studios for Your Quiet Moment Podcast.

Anika Sweetland argues the IPCC was created through politics, funding, and elite influence, tracing its origins to the 1985 Villach Conference and alleging it advances centralized global governance. She says media-driven fear shifted from 1970s “ice age” stories to 1988 “global warming,” citing sea-level warnings that did not occur. Sweetland claims climate finance and clean-energy investment incentives benefit IPCC-linked officials. She highlights Climategate emails as evidence of strategic data presentation (“hide the decline”), message management, and peer-review gatekeeping (“PAL review”), plus an alleged journal blacklist. She says her climate studies education omitted Climategate, emphasized policy “solutions,” and discouraged debate.00:00 IPCC Exposed Intro01:01 Ice Age Media Panic02:06 Fear as Control Tool03:36 Global Warming Rebrand05:23 Sea Level Scare Claims07:28 Villach Birth of IPCC09:31 Global Governance Agenda10:31 Trillions and Incentives12:20 Climategate Data Tricks18:57 Peer Review Gatekeeping21:44 Blacklists and Ideology23:31 Personal Wake Up Call25:16 Who Controls Science26:34 What We Can Do Next27:23 Host Reacts and Questions27:36 Climategate Not Taught30:10 Policy Impacts UK Europe33:15 Witch Hunts Parallel37:22 Climate Degree Brainwashing40:42 Only Graduate Story43:15 Today's Model Driven Teaching45:19 Books and IPCC Origins46:17 Closing Thanks and Wraphttps://x.com/anika_climate=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Allison shares that attending Lacy's talk was especially impactful as she navigates a divorce after never handling bills, accounts, or financial decisions during her marriage, and she describes feeling controlled by not having her name on accounts or utilities. The conversation emphasizes normalizing financial literacy, having money conversations in marriage, and the value of prenups as protection rather than a sign of expecting divorce. Allison reflects on moving from intense anxiety and grief to a steadier emotional place by fully feeling her emotions and leaning on friends, including a supportive community of divorced women.

Cybersecurity Today would like to than Material Security for their support of this podcast.  On Cybersecurity Today on the Weekend, the host speaks with Jennifer Hutton, a cybersecurity leader in the car dealership sector, about how she entered cybersecurity through increasing cyber insurance requirements and why dealerships are prime targets because they hold bank-level sensitive data and run complex digital and IoT ecosystems. They discuss the rise of cyber-enabled fraud, including impersonation scams, smishing, and synthetic identity fraud, and the need to educate both employees and customers. Hutton describes gaps in industry resources, especially for smaller dealers, and contrasts regulatory pressures such as updated FTC safeguards rules in the U.S. She emphasizes servant leadership, empathy, and communicating risk in business terms, arguing that cyber risk is business risk. The conversation also covers supply chain disruption from the CDK ransomware incident and the importance of incident response, business continuity, and resiliency-focused planning. 00:00 Weekend Show Kickoff 01:14 Jennifer's Cyber Origin 02:53 Why Dealerships Are Targets 04:30 Scams And Synthetic IDs 08:32 Industry Gaps And Sharing 10:42 Regulation And Tech Shift 13:48 Leading With Business Risk 21:29 Servant Leadership And AI 25:21 Empathy In Tech Teams 28:16 CDK Ransomware Lessons 29:53 Resilience Over Prevention 32:08 Advice To Dealership Leaders 34:49 Closing Thanks

I was delighted to meet Eithne Walsh, CEO of Féach Vision Support Services, to talk about improving supports for blind and visually impaired children in Irish mainstream schools. Eithne shares how her two children gradually lost their sight and how low expectations and limited expertise in schools pushed her to advocate for practical planning, expanded core curriculum skills, and assistive technology so her children could become independent learners. She explains Féach's evolution from parent peer support into a charity offering school guides, webinars, SNA and teacher training, low vision awareness workshops, and VR immersive training, now supporting hundreds of schools.

In this second episode of AIDS2060, Ben sits down with Dr Andrew Kambugu, Executive Director of the Infectious Disease Institute at Makere University in Kampala Uganda. They discuss the state of the clinical response to HIV in Africa, and Andrew sets out a research and implementation agenda that gives equal weight to HIV prevention, treatment and diagnosis. He compares it to floor cleaning: you have to switch the water off at its source and not rely exclusively on mopping water up on the floor.

David Bujnicki, senior vice president of investor relations and strategy at Kimco Realty(NYSE: KIM), joined the REIT Report podcast to discuss the significant changes that have occurred across the investor relations landscape. The importance of understanding your audience, leveraging technology, educating and managing expectations, and soliciting feedback were among the main themes addressed.Bujnicki described how the focus of investor relations has shifted from net asset value and portfolio management to earnings growth and how companies are managing their cost of capital. He attributed this to the continued rise of passive investors and hedge funds that are more short-term focused. He emphasized the importance of adapting IR strategies to cater to the evolving needs of these investors.Furthermore, educating investors on operational fundamentals has become crucial, Bujnicki said. He noted that while Kimco's operating fundamentals are at their best, it is essential to help investors understand why earnings growth may not always reflect that reality. Informing investors about the longer timelines involved in real estate transactions can help manage these expectations more effectively, he noted.Chapters: 00:00 Flexible Disclosures00:28 Welcome to REIT Report00:53 IR Changes Decade01:25 From NAV to Earnings03:32 Educating Investors Today05:25 Capital Allocation Levers06:39 Staying Long Term08:06 Pivoting in Crises08:44 AI in Investor Relations10:57 Investor Feedback Loop12:59 Future IR Priorities14:12 Symposium Takeaways15:58 Closing Thanks

Embodiment and Trust: Why Human Connection Is Pediatrics' SuperpowerIn this Pediatric Lounge episode, hosts Herb and George welcome back Dr. Sian Jones-Jobst, MD, to discuss how, amid AI, misinformation, consolidation, and workforce shortages, the pediatrician–family relationship remains irreplaceable because pediatrics is “the embodiment business,” built on vulnerability, trust, and continuity over years. They explore how misinformation on social media drives parents to seek trusted voices, how limited visit time and EHR “mechanics” undermine relationship-building, and why adolescent care often requires more time. Dr. Sian contrasts relationship-based medical homes with transactional care, emphasizes team culture (staff introductions and continuity), and argues practices serve communities through leadership beyond the exam room. They discuss correcting misinformation through motivation, conversation, and shared decision-making, challenges around newborn vaccine consent and declining prenatal visits, burnout as broken relationships, gratitude as a leadership practice, and the need to invest in children and pediatrics for the country's future.00:00 Podcast Intro00:50 Why Embodiment Matters01:40 Misinformation And Trust04:14 Vulnerability In Care05:39 Time Versus Mechanics10:16 Adolescents Need Time11:30 Continuity Superpower14:33 When Care Turns Transactional15:51 Team Culture And Names18:43 Pediatrics In The Community21:27 MBAs And Practice Survival24:47 Rebuilding Real Community27:24 Relationships Beat Facts28:58 Online Echo Chambers30:56 Trust and Media Diet31:44 Correcting Misinformation33:37 Shared Decisions and HPV35:21 Personalizing Guidelines38:27 Vaccine Conversations That Work40:37 Newborn Consent and Humanity44:14 Prenatal Visits and Continuity48:05 Burnout and Broken Bonds49:18 Joyful Practice and Gratitude55:33 Investing in Children57:42 Closing Thanks and SignoffSupport the show

The Summer Solstice 2026 is here! This is an  energetic portal, a cosmic opening for profound transformation. Take advantage of it for your highest good and growth. In this livestream, we explore how to harness the powerful solstice energies to consciously step into the higher version of yourself. We all carry deep grooves, or habits and behaviors shaped by our personal history, DNA, learned family patterns, and the collective consciousness. These grooves are familiar, persistent, and powerful. Moving out of them takes real awareness and conscious choice. And while we undergo transition into a higher version of ourselves, it's easy to slip back into what's comfortable. But right NOW, we have the solstice on our side! The Summer (or winter - hello southern hemisphere friends!) Solstice is one of the most potent energy portals of the year. It's a natural doorway that supports massive change and  transformation. The Universe is conspiring WITH you at this time. In this livestream, we'll explore: ✨ What the Summer Solstice energy means for your personal transformation

Miss Mississippi Anna Leah Jolly (Part 2): Adoption, Emotional Intelligence Tools & Gospel-Centered Connection | The TableIn Part Two of The Table (Lifeline Children's Services), host Rick Morton continues his conversation with Anna Leah Jolly—Miss Mississippi, dance studio owner, author, and adoption advocate—about using her adoption story and the Miss Mississippi platform to point to “God confidence” and share the gospel. Anna Leah describes creating LimitlessPower2Connect.com and a children's book on emotional intelligence and the emotion wheel, supported by a CASA grant to distribute resources to kids in the court system. She and Rick discuss pressures adoptive families feel to perform, the importance of prayer and community, and how the gospel fosters connection and transformation from the inside out. Anna Leah shares why therapy felt scary at first and how her tools help parents and children talk safely about feelings and trauma, and she highlights her books available through Barnes & Noble.00:00 Welcome Back and Setup01:07 Tools for Connection01:28 From Trauma to Resources02:25 Limitless and Miss Mississippi04:09 Scholarships and God's Provision06:12 Using the Platform for Gospel06:55 Pageants and Legacy07:44 Proving Yourself Pressure10:45 Parents and Performance Anxiety12:38 Spotlight Myth and Endurance15:09 Pain in Adoption and Prayer17:28 Privacy and Boundaries18:43 Trauma Bonding in Adoption19:54 Faith Lived Not Forced21:12 Courtroom Misconceptions23:48 God Is Limitless25:00 Love and Attachment29:04 Advice to Adopted Kids30:12 Resources and Books32:12 Therapy Without Fear33:47 Bible as the Manual34:20 Closing Thanks and Wrap

Redefining “Normal” After Traumatic Brain Injury: Dr. Maria Stella Bonn on Disability, Advocacy, and ChecklistsOn The Girl Doc Survival Guide, Dr. Maria Stella Bonn, Associate Professor of Information Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, discusses her 2011 bicycle accident–related traumatic brain injury and her writing on disability and “normal,” including the idea that everyone's baseline varies. She reflects on unpredictable health changes, including a breast cancer diagnosis two years after her TBI, and how recovery reshaped her views on capability and judgment. Bonn says she wishes others would assume people are okay and let actions demonstrate abilities, offering a story of walking her kindergarten-aged child to school during recovery. She emphasizes the importance of an advocate, describing how her husband ensured therapies occurred, pushed her to persist, and helped expedite replacement of her skull flap after an emergency craniectomy. She also discusses improving information handoffs in healthcare and co-parenting through simple checklists.00:00 Meet Dr Maria Bonn00:35 The Bike Accident01:27 Normal Versus Disabled03:26 Life Can Change Fast05:05 Cancer After TBI07:02 What Disability Means08:37 Recovery With Her Child09:17 Why You Need An Advocate11:29 Medical Handoffs And Checklists13:28 Closing Thanks

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?

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. Suddenly something they had only heard about and understood with their mind becomes a visceral experience they understand with their whole being. In this livestream, Kara shares: ✨ Personal experiences from beyond the veil and what they reveal about the nature of reality

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.

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
