Greetings, initiates. #13 here. You are expecting an episode of the Ancient Order of the Jackalope, the secret society/podcast about uncovering hidden stories and sharing them with the world, and I am here to explain why you're not getting one. I have a lot of stuff going on in my life right now. You don't need to know what it all is, you just need to know that it's not all good. I had thought I was coping with everything quite well, and then I had a moment that made it very clear that I was not really coping at all. Looking back, I could see this has been a problem for a while. I have been setting myself up for a massive spectacular meltdown, and I have been lucky that it has been averted. Long story short, I need to step back from almost everything that I'm doing and try to set a path forward. Hopefully one that doesn't lead to inevitable burnout, stress-related ulcers, and sleepless nights. Everything includes this podcast. Now, it isn't not going away. It's just going on hiatus for a short while. In fact, I'll will guarantee you that right now there will be an episode of this podcast in the first week of January 2026. Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye. Until then, I need to rest and relax and reprioritize and that's exactly what I'm going to do. Hopfelly when I see you in January I will be a happier, healthier #13. Until then, maybe you could go listen to some other podcasts. The Constant is always great, it's hard to go wrong there. Or on any show with Michael Hobbes on it, like Maintenance Phase or If Books Could Kill. Maybe Lateral or No Such Thing as a Fish? Our Fake History or Imperfect Men or Pontifacts? You have hundreds of great options. We'll be back. Until then, remember: that which is least known, is best to know.

25th Oct 2025In this Satsang, Sanjay explored spiritual concepts around the nature of the self and mind, discussing how true awareness and contentment are found beyond the mind's constant changes and illusions. Sanjay emphasized the importance of letting go of the mind to achieve liberation, highlighting that mistakes are inherent to the human experience but that remembrance and connection with the inner self are key to achieving self-realization. The discussion concluded with insights about inner silence, the trap of constant thinking, and the significance of internal awareness as the most important aspect of life. These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

Episode Summary: Have you ever found yourself saying yes when you really wanted to say no? Or have you ever felt overwhelmed and exhausted because you were trying to meet everyone else’s expectations? If so, you are not alone. In recognition of National Stress Awareness Day, today, we’re going to explore how to move from overwhelmed to overjoyed by learning to say no without feeling guilty. We’ll dive into Scripture, explore research on overcommitment, and I’ll share five practical ways to set God-honoring boundaries. Quotables from the episode: Many of us, especially as women, have been taught that saying yes is the godly thing to do. We associate busyness with productivity, and productivity with worth. But the truth is, constantly saying yes can leave us drained, distracted, and distant from God’s best for us. For many years, I said “Yes” every time something was asked of me because I believed it was the godly response. Until God impressed upon my heart that he never told me to do that much, and had I sought him for wisdom, He would have readily guided my path! That was totally on me, but God was so gentle in getting my attention. Psychologists have long studied the effects of people-pleasing and overcommitment. Research from the American Psychological Association shows that chronic overcommitment leads to stress, anxiety, and even depression. Emotionally, people-pleasers often struggle with self-worth, believing their value is tied to what they do for others rather than who they are in Christ. Chronic Overcommitment and Overwhelm Chronic overcommitment and overwhelm can take a serious toll on physical health, leading to conditions such as: Adrenal Fatigue & Hormonal Imbalance – Constant stress can dysregulate cortisol levels, leading to exhaustion, brain fog, and difficulty managing emotions. Cardiovascular Issues – Chronic stress increases blood pressure, heart rate, and inflammation, raising the risk of heart disease, hypertension, and stroke. Weakened Immune System – Prolonged stress suppresses immune function, making the body more susceptible to infections and slower to heal. Gastrointestinal Problems – Overwhelm can contribute to acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), ulcers, and digestive issues. Chronic Pain & Inflammation – Stress triggers inflammation, which can exacerbate conditions like fibromyalgia, arthritis, and migraines. Sleep Disorders – Overcommitment often leads to insomnia, poor sleep quality, and chronic fatigue. Weight Gain or Loss – Stress-related eating patterns can lead to unhealthy weight fluctuations, metabolic dysfunction, and insulin resistance. Muscle Tension & Headaches – Persistent stress can cause tight muscles, tension headaches, and even TMJ (jaw pain from clenching). Burnout & Mental Fog – Long-term overwhelm can impair cognitive function, reducing focus, memory, and decision-making ability. Autoimmune Disorders – Chronic stress has been linked to the development or worsening of autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis. Managing stress through rest, boundaries, and self-care isn’t just about mental well-being; it’s essential for physical health. Jesus himself set boundaries. In Luke 5:16, we read, “But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.” He didn’t heal every person or meet every need. He sought the Father’s will first. If Jesus set boundaries, then we should, too. Addressing the spiritual and scientific aspects of restoration To counteract the physical effects of chronic overcommitment and overwhelm, we must address both the spiritual and scientific aspects of restoration. Here’s how: Prioritizing Rest & Sabbath (Biblical & Scientific) Biblical Insight: God modeled rest in Genesis 2:2-3, and Jesus regularly withdrew to quiet places (Mark 6:31). Sabbath isn’t just a suggestion; it’s a command for our well-being (Exodus 20:8-10). Science: Rest lowers cortisol, improves immune function, and enhances brain health. Sleep is crucial for memory consolidation and physical repair. Application: Schedule intentional rest. Guard your Sabbath. Ensure 7-9 hours of sleep. Setting Boundaries to Prevent Overcommitment Biblical Insight: Even Jesus set boundaries—He didn’t heal everyone at once and took time alone with the Father (Luke 5:16). Proverbs 4:23 reminds us to guard our hearts, which includes protecting our time and energy. Science: Chronic stress leads to burnout, weakened immunity, and heart disease. Learning to say “no” prevents emotional and physical depletion. Application: Use discernment in commitments. Before saying “yes,” ask: Does this align with God’s will? Is this sustainable? Engaging in Mind-Body Renewal Biblical Insight: Romans 12:2 encourages us to renew our minds. Philippians 4:8 tells us to focus on what is pure and lovely. Science: Practices like deep breathing, exercise, and gratitude shift the brain out of stress mode, improving mental clarity and resilience. Application: Try breath prayers (e.g., inhale “Be still,” exhale “and know that I am God”; inhale “I trust you, God,” exhale “in all things.”). Move daily to reduce inflammation and boost mood. Nourishing the Body & Mind Biblical Insight: Daniel chose healthy foods and was stronger than those indulging in excess (Daniel 1:12-15). Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Science: Whole foods reduce inflammation, regulate blood sugar, and protect against stress-related illnesses. Application: Eat nutrient-dense foods, stay hydrated, and avoid excess caffeine or sugar that heightens stress responses. Seeking Community & Support Biblical Insight: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 teaches that two are better than one. We weren’t designed to carry burdens alone (Galatians 6:2). Science: Social connection lowers stress hormones, strengthens immunity, and increases resilience. Application: Surround yourself with godly counsel. Delegate. Accept help. Community is part of God’s design for our well-being. Releasing Control & Trusting God Biblical Insight: Jesus said, “Come to me, all who are weary… and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Trusting God’s sovereignty brings peace (Isaiah 26:3). Science: Chronic stress stems from feeling out of control. Releasing worries to God reduces anxiety, lowers blood pressure, and improves mental health. Application: Regularly surrender your burdens to God. Journal prayers. Meditate on Scriptures about His faithfulness. By aligning our lives with God’s rhythms and applying scientific wisdom, we can reduce overwhelm and prevent burnout and experience lasting peace. Practical Tips for How to Set Healthy, God-Honoring Boundaries Recognize that “No” is a Complete Sentence You don’t need to over-explain or justify your decision. Jesus simply said “yes” or “no” (Matthew 5:37). When we recognize that saying no is a way to honor God’s best for us, we can do so with confidence. Pray Before You Commit Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. ”Before saying yes to anything, take a moment to pray and ask, Is this God’s best for me in this season? Set Priorities Based on God’s Calling Ephesians 2:10 tells us that we are created for good works that God prepared in advance for us. This means that we are not called to do everything—only what He has specifically prepared for us. Identify what God is calling you to do in this season and let that guide your commitments. Understand That Saying No Opens the Door for God’s Yes When we fill our schedules with obligations, we leave no room for the divine appointments God has for us. Saying no creates margin for God’s greater yes. Isaiah 30:21 says, “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” Practice Saying No with Grace and Love You can say no in a way that honors both God and the other person. Here are a few ways: “Thank you for thinking of me, but I can’t commit to that right now.” “I appreciate the opportunity, but I need to focus on what God has called me to in this season.” “I’d love to help another time, but my plate is full right now.” Encouraging Scripture to Empower You: Learning to say no without feeling guilty Galatians 1:10 – “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Matthew 11:28-30 – Jesus calls us to rest in Him, not to take on every burden. Psalm 46:10 – “Be still, and know that I am God.” Sometimes, God’s best for us is rest. Ecclesiastes 3:1 – “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” We must discern what is right for this season. Colossians 3:23 – “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” Our commitments should be done with joy and purpose, not guilt. Scripture References: Luke 5:16 “But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.” Galatians 1:10 “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus calls us to rest in Him, not to take on every burden. Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God.” Sometimes, God’s best for us is rest. Ecclesiastes 3:1 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” We must discern what is right for this season. Colossians 3:23 “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” Our commitments should be done with joy and purpose, not guilt. Saying no is not a rejection of others—it is a way of saying yes to what God has planned for you. You don’t have to live overwhelmed and exhausted. You can move from overcommitted to overjoyed by setting God-honoring boundaries. I encourage you this week to pray over your commitments. Ask God to show you where you need to say no so you can say yes to His best. If today’s episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who needs encouragement in this area.

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the Full Video on YouTube - click hereWhen people in the automotive world talk about leaders who bring out the best in others, Kim Less's name always surfaces. As Vice President of aftersales for Nissan Americas, she leads a team of more than 1,600 people in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and South America.Her leadership philosophy? Constant gentle pressure. The phrase, which came from Danny Meyer, perfectly captures how Kim shows up daily. To her, "constant" means persistence and accountability. "Gentle" means having your team's back while guiding them toward growth. And "pressure" is the drive to win, move with urgency, and deliver. Together, they form the balance she strives for: leading with calm confidence but never without expectation.At Nissan, Kim has spent years redefining what aftersales means inside the organization. For her, aftersales isn't an "afterthought," it's the engine that fuels brand loyalty and future sales. Leading across multiple countries means managing different cultures, languages, and expectations. Kim talks about how she's brought the entire Americas region together as one unified team. She does that by traveling to meet teams in person and building relationships and credibility. Over time, those consistent actions turned into a shared culture built on mutual respect and accountability.As the automotive industry evolves, Nissan is focused on simplifying its processes to make quicker decisions. Kim recalls working with the dealer advisory board to streamline 60 dealer-facing programs; removing or simplifying two-thirds to sharpen focus on what truly matters. To her, simplification isn't about doing less; it's about removing distractions so teams can move faster and stay focused on impact.She ties that same thinking to the importance of trust inside organizations. Once people trust each other and the data and systems they rely on, they no longer waste time validating every decision. That's when speed naturally follows. She also reflects on the personal side of leadership and the lessons from finding balance. Earlier in her career, while raising twins, she often hesitated to step away from work for family events. Over time, she learned that setting boundaries wasn't a weakness but a necessity. Now, she mentors others, urging them to "own their calendar," set limits, and protect their well-being. It's advice she lives by and passes down to emerging leaders who often feel pressured to choose between career and personal life.Themes discussed in this episode:How Kim Less applies “constant gentle pressure” to balance accountability, empathy, and performance in leading Nissan Aftersales AmericasThe leadership lessons Kim Less learned from Saturn and GM that shaped her people-first approach at NissanWhy calm leadership and consistency drive stronger team alignment across multiple cultures and regions in the AmericasThe business case for aftersales as a core growth engine that strengthens brand loyalty and customer lifetime valueThe transformation of Nissan's Aftersales organization through simplification, streamlined programs, and faster decision-makingThe process of uniting 1,600 employees across North and South America under one shared vision and operating modelThe importance of visiting markets and building relationships in person to earn credibility and alignmentHow setting boundaries, owning your calendar, and leading with authenticity sustain energy and focus in high-pressure rolesFeatured guest:

On this episode of The Business of Watches Podcast we drop in on Niels Eggerding, the CEO of Frederique Constant (and sister marque Alpina), at the brand's headquarters in Plan-les-Ouates, Switzerland near Geneva. Eggerding has been in the corner office since 2018 and has steered FC through a series of challenges and triumphs during his time leading the company. The Dutchman has brought more high horology and cool collaborations to the value and volume-driven brand, including perpetual calendars and tourbillons as well as more precious-metal cases. But it's a delicate balance for Frederique Constant as value-priced watches still account for more than 90% of its production volumes. Amid rising input costs and a strong Swiss franc, not to mention the challenge of U.S. tariffs, Eggerding's biggest challenge is maintaining FC's value proposition while burnishing its reputation as a serious watchmaker able to produce high-end timepieces. At the same time, he has to keep delivering sales and profit for the brand's owner, Citizen of Japan.  On this episode of The Business of Watches Podcast, we drop in on Niels Eggerding, the CEO of Frederique Constant (and sister marque Alpina), at the brand's headquarters in Plan-les-Ouates, Switzerland, near Geneva.We hope you enjoy our conversation with Niels Eggerding.

If you're a Christian working mom who lies awake playing out every possible scenario — trying to stay ahead of what could go wrong — this episode will feel like exhale. Today we're talking about the kind of anxiety that doesn't always look chaotic on the outside — but feels like a constant mental hum you can't turn off. The silent fear of “what if I don't see it coming?” The emotional exhaustion of always trying to pre-live what hasn't even happened yet. In this episode, you'll learn: Why so much of your anxiety isn't because something is actually wrong — but because you don't know what's next The difference between what-if thinking (fear-driven) vs. even-if faith (peace-anchored) A 3-step biblical reset you can do in real time when your brain starts spiraling How to experience peace before clarity — not after Why God isn't waiting for you to figure it all out — He's waiting for you to stay close If your mind is constantly preparing for things that haven't even happened… if you're tired of living braced for impact… this conversation will show you a new way to walk — steady, grounded, and no longer driven by fear of the unknown.   If you're ready to go deeper, I also share Faithfully Balanced, my course designed to help Christian working moms like you restore peace, guard your priorities, and live faithfully aligned with God — all without adding extra hustle to your life.  Resources & Links Mentioned in This Episode: Faithfully Balanced Course

Did you know that 1 in 7 Americans now own Bitcoin? If you've been curious about cryptocurrency but don't know where to start, this episode is for you. Host Kirsten Howe sits down with Jirayr Kembikian, CFP® and Managing Director of Citrine Capital, to demystify Bitcoin and explain why it's fundamentally different from every other cryptocurrency on the market.   In this conversation, Jirayr introduces his "three buckets" framework for understanding the crypto landscape and explains how Bitcoin's fixed 21 million supply cap, national debt concerns, and unlimited money printing are driving unprecedented adoption. He reveals the shocking truth that almost a third of all dollars ever created were printed in just the last five years, and why Bitcoin's proof-of-work system makes it the most secure computer network in the world. Whether you're a complete beginner or have been crypto-curious for years, this episode provides a grounded, practical perspective on what Bitcoin is, why it matters, and what it could mean for your financial future. This is Part 1 of our cryptocurrency series—stay tuned for upcoming episodes on how to own, acquire, and store Bitcoin safely.   Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 1:43 Why Bitcoin exploded over the last decade, built on decades of failed projects before launching in 2009. 2:45 Why everyone gets Bitcoin wrong at first—it requires understanding math, cryptography, engineering, and energy simultaneously. 3:43 The "three buckets" framework: Bitcoin (hardest money with 21 million cap), stablecoins (dollar-pegged), and all other crypto (centralized authorities that can negate transactions). 6:03 What backs Bitcoin: How proof-of-work energy consumption secures the network and makes it the most secure computer network in the world. 7:34 Other cryptocurrencies' harsh reality: Constant hacks, downtime, and mysterious blockchain reversals. 7:46 The economic pressure driving Bitcoin adoption: National debt over $30 trillion makes printing money mathematically inevitable. 10:21 The jaw-dropping stat: Almost a third of all dollars ever created were printed in the last five years. 11:03 Basic economics: Growing demand meets Bitcoin's fixed supply that cannot increase. 11:31 Preview: How to own, acquire, and store Bitcoin—covered in upcoming episodes. 11:51 Bitcoin's transparent 100-year distribution schedule fixed in code versus unpredictable dollar printing. 12:18 The halving cycle: Every four years, new Bitcoin supply gets cut in half, creating scarcity by design.

Part 4 is the final installment and recognizes October 26, 2025 as the 200th anniversary of the grand opening of the Erie Canal! This is a special documentary I produced on the history of the Erie Canal 25 years ago with updates from 2025 and how it brought me closer to the Virgin Mary. During my movie shoots for over 25 years I continue to discover as I traveled to parts of New York State unknown to me, that I've found the Virgin Mary is always here. Part 4 is the conclusion to the series. It was shot last spring and brings to light what has happened across the Erie Canal since that documentary I produced 25 years ago. I call this part "From Forgotten Wonder to Destination Wonder" because it reveals where two and a half decades now finds us. Today, this is the story of positive growth. Of volunteers within their local communities bringing an understanding of canal history and canal usage for our times while growing opportunities for people to enjoy the Erie Canal today and in the future. And now a day this is beginning to include what we have learned about the past that's not so great. Not in an effort to rewrite history, but rather to address what has been overlooked in order to heal wounds and take account for those mistakes in order to learn from them and not repeat them as humanity grows into the future. Here is the beginning of the story: A big part of America's history almost never got built. Its builders ignored presidential advice, risked millions of dollars, and changed the course of America's society by building a ditch. Work was begun in 1817 and completed in only seven years on October 26, 1825. There are links, photos and more about this on my website. Pray for the People of Ukraine.

Em meio ao turbilhão político e cultural do final do século XVIII e início do XIX, destaca-se Benjamin Constant de Rebecque (1767–1830) como uma voz que buscou o equilíbrio entre os extremos da tirania monárquica e do radicalismo revolucionário. Nascido na Suíça e educado na tradição protestante, Constant tornou-se um dos mais refinados pensadores do liberalismo — não como ideologia política de mercado, mas como fundamento espiritual e institucional da convivência civilizada. Sua relevância não é apenas histórica, mas profundamente eclesiológica e escatológica. Diante dos desafios contemporâneos enfrentados pela Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia, o pensamento de Constant oferece paralelos, mas também limites: sua defesa das liberdades formais precisa ser complementada por um impulso bíblico, espiritual, apostólico e profético — algo essencial para uma igreja que vive sob a expectativa do breve retorno de Cristo e que estrutura sua liderança de forma representativa e missionária. A tensão entre liberdade e ordem, entre instituição e carisma, entre prudência e profecia, exige mais do que equilíbrio político: exige fidelidade escatológica.

In a recent Wall Street Journal interview, Bill Gates revisited his controversial relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, acknowledging that meeting with the convicted sex offender was "a huge mistake." However, Gates's admission of “foolishness” rings hollow to critics, who question why such a highly intelligent and influential figure would repeatedly associate with Epstein, even after his criminal history was publicly known. Gates claimed he engaged with Epstein in hopes of advancing global health philanthropy, yet no tangible benefits emerged from these meetings, raising concerns about his judgment and motivations. Critics argue that Gates's wealth and power afforded him ample resources to explore other philanthropic avenues without involving a figure as toxic as Epstein.Additionally, Gates's attempts to downplay the personal fallout from his ties to Epstein invite further skepticism. Reports suggest that Epstein tried to exploit their acquaintance by threatening to expose an alleged affair involving Gates, adding a layer of complexity to the narrative. Gates's repeated meetings with Epstein—despite his then-wife Melinda French Gates expressing discomfort—cast doubt on his sincerity and decision-making. His efforts to frame the relationship as a lapse in judgment fail to address the broader implications of why someone in his position would disregard ethical concerns for potential personal or professional gain. This relationship has left a lingering stain on Gates's reputation, with critics questioning whether his contrition comes from genuine regret or the need to repair his public image.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill Gates Addresses His Friendship with Sex Offender Jeffrey Epstein: ‘I Was Foolish'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Luke 18:1-8 presents a parable, alternately named the parable of the Unjust Judge and the Persistent Widow. Jesus deliberately parodies the reality of God as a faithful judge. While we might doubt earthly authority, God has always been faithful and remains faithful. Nonetheless, we often lose hope. We look at the world and don't see justice, righteousness, or faithfulness or we forget that God is faithful and so we do whatever is right in our own eyes. Until the day of the Lord comes, we must not lose hope and become faithless.

In this episode of the Crisis Lab Podcast, host Kyle King takes a hard look at the internal fractures forming within the emergency management community. Kyle reflects on how recent disasters and public criticism have brought long-standing issues to the surface. This episode challenges the profession to face uncomfortable truths about authority, messaging, and its evolving role in the face of growing demands. With examples drawn from major events like Hurricanes Helene and Milton, and reactions from both public officials and emergency professionals, Kyle unpacks how misinformation, internal conflict, and a crisis of credibility are reshaping what it means to serve communities during emergencies. He explores how the field's reliance on heroic language has masked a quiet shift toward managing scarcity rather than delivering aid and why the time for honest self-examination is now. Tune in to hear why emergency management stands at a crossroads and what it must do to rebuild public trust and professional unity in an age of constant crisis.

This week's episode opens with our hosts in recovery mode from another whirlwind of watch events in New York City. Between too many cocktails, too few hours of sleep, and an overload of new releases, they manage to squeeze in some insight into what makes this strange little world of watch collecting tick.Our recent watch-enthusiast survey gets dissected, revealing that the average collector spends less than you'd think, most of them also play guitar, and nearly everyone pretends to understand constant-force mechanisms. Cue a lively debate about integrated bracelets (“Free the bracelet!”) and why the supposedly sacred “three-watch collection” rule might be the dumbest idea the hobby ever produced.Omega's latest Speedmaster drops into the conversation like a well-timed meme — inspiring both awe and eye-rolls. The crew then takes a detour into rebranding gone wrong, using the fictional “Brahmot” as a case study in how to confuse your fanbase while trying to sound modern. Spoiler: Clear communication still matters more than Helvetica font choices.The discussion gets philosophical — and slightly unhinged — about consumer education, certification programs, and Seiko's website, which earns the definitive verdict: “Seiko doesn't run good websites.” Somewhere between talk of health insurance, music, and cultural references, the group concludes that the watch industry runs best on caffeine, optimism, and a bit of chaos.It's a fast, funny, and brutally honest ride through the watch industry's weird ecosystem — equal parts therapy session and roast. Whether you're rocking a Speedmaster or a Seiko 5, remember — collecting watches is supposed to be fun. Don't let your bracelet hold you back.

The Myth of Constant Availability: Why Being "Always On" is Burning You OutIn this powerful fourth installment of the "Suck It Up, Go It Alone" series, Work-Life Harmony Strategist SaCola Lehr dives deep into a subtle, yet deeply damaging habit: persistent availability. We live in a world of endless pings, emails, Slack messages, group texts, and notifications that never stop. This episode unpacks the profound cost of feeling like you always have to be "on" for everyone else, and how this belief is silently draining your emotional battery and sabotaging your peace.What You'll Uncover in This Episode:1. The Hidden Roots of Hyper-ResponsivenessMore Than Modern Tech: While technology amplifies the problem, Sokola reveals that the need for constant availability is often deeply rooted in childhood. For many, being needed became an identity, a survival strategy learned early on to earn love, keep the peace, or prove value.The Identity Trap: The dangerous belief that we internalize: "If I'm not available, I'm not valuable." Your worth is not tied to how quickly you respond or how many fires you put out.2. The Drain: Burnout Disguised as DedicationThe Nervous System Never Rests: Constant responsiveness keeps your nervous system in a perpetual state of "alert mode." This chips away at your peace of mind, leading to chronic irritability, fatigue, and even resentment toward the very people you care about.Addiction to Chaos: Being constantly "on" is often burnout disguised as dedication. We split our energy between too many things trying to prove dependability at work and being the emotional glue at home leading to emotional exhaustion and hypervigilance.The Trauma Response: For some, this "always on" state is a trauma response carried into adulthood, a hyper-awareness learned in homes where love or peace had to be earned.3. Four Brave Actions to Reclaim Your Energy and PeaceThe good news? You can unlearn this habit and reclaim your time, energy, and peace without losing your impact. SaCola provides four practical, brave actions to start implementing today:1. Set a Tech BoundaryTurn off all notifications outside of work hours. Create "no phone zones" during dinner, family time, or personal rest.To give your brain and nervous system a much-needed break from constant pings and demands.2. Communicate Your AvailabilityClearly state your response times. Example: "I check emails three times a day," or "My cut-off time is 6:30 p.m. for family time."People will respect your boundaries when they are clearly communicated and consistently enforced.3. Create Micro-Breaks to ResetImplement 5-minute deep breathing or stretching breaks, or a 30-minute "just sit, just be" ritual after work.These small, intentional pauses calm your nervous system and restore focus, preventing the buildup of stress.4. Remind Yourself of the TruthInternalize the truth: You are allowed to rest, and you are allowed to be unavailable.The world will keep spinning. Your value is inherent, not conditional on your responsiveness.The Takeaway: Persistent availability is a silent burnout trap. By taking these brave actions, you can stop trading survival mode for strategies that help you truly thrive in your career, life, and everything in between.If today's conversation hit home, don't just stop here.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger challenges the mindset that the need to rest, recharge, and reset is an indulgence: it is a necessity. Constant burnout and chronic stress are not normal. We can't sustain staying in survival mode forever. So how do we recognize the signs of being on the brink of a crash? How do we break the burnout cycle? Cindy defines what we should feel like when rested and explains how to stop seeing exhaustion as a badge of honor. It's time to abandon chronic stress for a healthy reset.  Rest and reset, as defined by Cindy, is not just booking a beach vacation. It's about resetting our nervous system so we're not constantly running on fumes. And it means viewing rest not as something earned after being productive, but as a necessary function of success. She outlines three common triggers that keep us locked in survival mode: 1. Scarcity of recognition, 2. Unequal workloads, and 3. The ‘do more with less' culture.Cindy identifies five common warning signs of being forever on the brink of burnout: 1. Constant exhaustion, 2. Everything feels overwhelming 3. Emotional reactivity, 4. Joy feels like a distant concept, and 5. Forgetfulness and brain fog. Why do all those things feel normal in our lives right now? They're not. Rest is not a reward for productivity; it's a biological necessity. Cindy asks us to identify the kind of rest we need: 1. Physical rest, 2. Emotional rest, 3. Creative rest, 4. Social rest, or 5. Sensory rest. When we can identify that, we can follow her guide to restoration and reset.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Pressing PauseAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Mission Sunday is a moment to remember what God has done and to look ahead in faith to what He will continue to do. At Stonebridge Bible Church, we begin with gratitude—just as Samuel, Nehemiah, and Paul did—acknowledging that the Lord has been faithful every step of the way and will remain faithful as we move forward. God has provided us with a building, and now we trust Him to provide through the generous hearts of His people as we take the next steps toward building out the space for ministry.This message centers on our mission and constant prayer: to preach the Bible, equip the saints, serve the body, and reach the lost so that our people, our city, and the world might know and worship Jesus Christ. It reminds us that everything we do as a church is not out of self-determination but out of dependence on the power of the Holy Spirit. From the preaching of God's Word, to the equipping and discipling of believers, to acts of service and compassion, to reaching those who do not yet know Christ, every part of our mission flows from the heart of God Himself.As we move into this new chapter together, we do so with confidence that the same God who has helped us “thus far” will continue to lead, provide, and build His church for generations to come.

Ever felt like life's moving too fast to catch your breath? In this deeply honest episode, Heather shares how taking a complete break from “doing” transformed her energy, creativity, and inner dialogue. You'll hear what really happens when you stop forcing progress — and how the words you use can become the gateway to alignment, clarity, and calm.It's not just about mindset; it's about linguistics, energy, and the unconscious power of how you talk to yourself.This is your permission to pause.What's Inside:The surprising truth about overdoing and emotional avoidanceHow to hear your own voice again after burnoutWhy words carry the energy that shapes your entire experienceThree big lessons about slowing down with intentionA personal “Power Pause” challenge you can try this weekA calm invitation to join The Power Pause Weekend — a two-part online retreat that'll help you reset completelyChapters:00:04 - The Power of Pausing01:18 - Finding Clarity Through Pause02:48 - The Power of Words03:38 - Key Lessons on Personal Empowerment05:34 - Introducing the Power Pause Weekend06:25 - Preparing for a New SeasonThe Details:Life can feel like a never-ending race, can't it? But what if I told you that sometimes the best way to move forward is to pause? This week, we're diving headfirst into the concept of the Power Pause – yes, that's right, I said ‘pause', not ‘push'! I recently took a much-needed break, and it opened my eyes to how essential it is to step back and realign our thoughts and energy. When I stopped, I discovered that ‘overdoing' often masquerades as productivity, and boy, did I have a lot of that going on! In this episode, I share my journey of how the simple act of slowing down allowed me to reconnect with my inner voice. I talk about the shifts in language that can transform our mindset from survival mode to thriving mode. How about ditching ‘I have to' for ‘I get to'? It's a small shift that can make a world of difference! We'll also explore how aligning our language with our intentions can enhance not just our personal lives but our professional ones too. So, if you're feeling burnt out or just plain overwhelmed, let's embark on this Power Pause journey together and rediscover what truly matters. Trust me, the clarity you gain will be worth every minute of that pause!Three Core Lessons:Overdoing is avoidance. Constant doing numbs your intuition and blocks flow.Words carry energy. Swap “I have to” for “I choose to” and feel your body shift.Slow is strategic. Align your energy first; results follow naturally.Pause Challenge:Choose an evening — or a full day — and step away from noise, screens, and to‑do lists. Sit in the silence and listen to the language of your self‑talk. Then swap one pressuring phrase for a kinder one. Your nervous system will thank you.The Invitation:If you loved this episode, join Heather for The Power Pause Weekend — a two‑part online experience designed to help you rest, reflect, and realign before stepping into your next creative season.Reserve your space at ChoosingHappy.space/powerpauseMemorable Moments:“The

You started your business for freedom and flexibility. But now? Constant pings, late-night Slack replies, and being the go-to for everything means your business feels more like a job and not a very kind one. I know this firsthand. In my first few years of running CEO Amplify, I realized I hadn’t taken a full weekend off in six months. If I wasn’t approving a podcast edit, I was reviewing invoices at my kid’s sports game. That wasn’t the dream. That was my breaking point. I remember standing on the sidelines, phone in hand, pretending to watch while editing a payment link for a client. Totally missing the game. That night, I cried in the car. Not because business was bad, but because I had become the bottleneck in a machine I built. That’s when I decided: this business couldn’t revolve around me anymore. If you can't unplug without everything stalling, your business depends on you, which makes you the bottleneck. That setup leads straight to burnout. A real business runs on systems, clear roles, and metrics. Jobs run on one person’s time and energy. In this episode, I’ll help you spot the gaps and install simple systems and delegation tools so you can step away without everything breaking. Expect more time, fewer fires, and a business that serves you. Check out the resource mentioned in this episode:   https://ceoamplify.ca/dream-big **** Enjoyed this episode?

LA/Portland Homeless Crisis and Wildfire Preparedness Debate. Jeff Bliss discusses how California hosts at least 50% of the nation's homeless, with numbers increasing, extending from downtown LA to Malibu. Homeless encampments pose a constant wildfire threat due to warming or arson fires. Developer Rick Caruso successfully protected his Palisades property by proactively investing in brush clearance, equipment, and private fire crews, offering a model for prevention. Portland also faces a severe homeless crisis and high office vacancy. 1910 DONNER LAKE

China's Tech Espionage and the Difficulty of Reverse Engineering Advanced Chip Tools. Chris Riegel discusses how TSMC and ASML technology face constant threats from Chinese industrial espionage. ASML's chipmaking tools are highly complex, making reverse engineering nearly impossible. Europe is waking up to the risks; recently, the Dutch government seized China-owned chipmaker Nexperia. China is estimated to be two to three years behind US high-end chip technology and requires access to advanced ASML tools to catch up.

After two years of war in Gaza, Israel and Hamas have reached a deal and the conflict appears to have ended but many doubt that lasting peace is possible, and support for a two-state solution has dropped sharply. In the U.S., approval of Israel's military actions in Gaza has reached record lows, especially among younger and Democratic voters, while more Americans now support recognizing Palestinian statehood. These shifts show a clear change in how people see Israel and Palestine after two years of war.Next, we look at online perfection. From perfect bodies to luxury lifestyles, social media has blurred the line between real life and what's staged. Constant exposure to other people's highlight reels makes it easy to compare and feel like you're falling short. With some Americans saying that much of what they see online is fake or exaggerated, the internet often looks more like fantasy than reality.And, in this week's fun fact, we're talking sports collectibles — from signed baseballs to vintage cards, Americans love holding onto pieces of sports history.

Renee Troughton: The Hidden Cost of Constant Restructuring in Agile Organizations Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "Trust and safety are the most fundamental foundations of a team to perform. And so you are just breaking the core of teams when you're doing this." Renee challenges us to look beyond team dysfunction and examine the "dirty little secrets" in organizations—leadership-driven anti-patterns that destroy team performance. She reveals a cyclical pattern of constant restructuring that occurs every six months in many organizations, driven by leaders who avoid difficult performance management conversations and instead force people through redundancy rounds. This creates a cascade of fear, panic, and victim mindset throughout the organization. Beyond restructuring, Renee identifies other destructive patterns including the C-suite shuffle (where new CEOs bring in their own teams, cascading change throughout the organization) and the insourcing/outsourcing swings that create chaos over 5-8 year cycles. These high-level decisions drain productivity for months as teams storm and reform, losing critical knowledge and breaking the trust and safety that are fundamental for high performance. Renee emphasizes that as Agile coaches and Scrum Masters, we often don't feel empowered to challenge these decisions, yet they represent the biggest drain on organizational productivity. Self-reflection Question: Have you identified the cyclical organizational anti-patterns in your workplace, and do you have the courage to raise these systemic issues with senior leadership? Featured Book of the Week: Loving What Is by Byron Katie "It teaches you around how to reframe your thoughts in the day-to-day life, to assess them in a different light than you would normally perceive them to be." Renee recommends "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie as an essential tool for Scrum Master introspection. This book teaches practical techniques for reframing thoughts and recognizing that problems we perceive "out there" are often internal framing issues. Katie's method, called "The Work," provides a worksheet-based approach to introspection that helps identify when our perceptions create unnecessary suffering. Renee also highlights Marshall Rosenberg's "Nonviolent Communication" as a companion book, which uses language to tap into underlying emotions and needs. Both books offer practical, actionable techniques for self-knowledge—a critical skill for anyone in the Scrum Master role. The journey these books provide leads to inner peace through understanding that many challenges stem from how we internally frame situations rather than external reality. We have many episodes on NVC, Nonviolent Communication, which you can dive into and learn from experienced practitioners.  [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

In this episode of Your Dream Business Podcast, I'm letting you right into the backstage of my recent launch for the Grow Launch Sell program. I share what went on in the bootcamp and masterclasses I ran, and I walk you through both the wins and the challenges I faced. I also break down the numbers — from ad spend to email stats to conversion rates — so you see the full picture of how the launch performed. More than anything, I want you to see how I'm treating each launch as a learning opportunity. I talk about what I'm going to keep, what I'll change next time, and why I believe in leaning into personal sales calls, leveraging current members, and scaling ad investment when the time's right.

Jesus heals ten lepers but only one comes back to thank him.  An image of sin, their leprosy is cured when they are on the way to see "the priests."  Jesus appreciates the gratitude of the Samaritan who returned after being cured and finds fault with the other nine.  Constant gratitude is a way of loving our Lord and of assuring our own increase in saving faith. 

TikTok. Instagram. Constant notifications. Many worry that phones are destroying students' ability to pay attention and, in turn, their ability to learn in the classroom. Indeed, even many adults say that they have trouble reading books because of the constant stream of distractions their phones provide. But what does the research say? Are students actually […]

Shipwreck in the Barren Falklands Guest: Eric Jay Dolin The Nanina crew was sealing in the inhospitable Falkland Islands, characterized by constant 18 mph winds, cold temperatures, and no trees, only tall tussock grass. The sealing industry targeted valuable fur seals, rougher hair seals, and massive elephant seals whose blubber yielded high-quality illuminant oil. While the Americans were operating, the British ship Isabella, sailing from the Australian penal colony to London, wrecked on Eagle Island. The Isabella carried 54 people, including armed Marines, former convicts, and prostitutes. Captain George Higton was blamed for the crash due to his ineptitude and heavy drinking. Although the survivors made it ashore, they felt stranded and many broke into the salvaged alcohol.
