McKay examines the modern epidemic that is silently reshaping our brains - "Switching and Scrolling" - drawing a powerful parallel between the rise of physical obesity and the growing crisis of fractured attention. He argues that our addiction to the shallows of digital consumption is not just a productivity loss, but a thief of our peace, creativity, and deep connection.Navigating the science of attention, McKay cites Johann Hari's Stolen Focus and a Hewlett-Packard study revealing that digital distraction drops IQ twice as much as cannabis use. He shares the "phantom vibrations" felt by campers at a device-free retreat and the success of San Mateo High School's magnetic phone pouches to illustrate how environment dictates focus. The episode concludes with practical strategies - from "unplugged nights" to the Boston Consulting Group's "predictable time off" - encouraging listeners to reclaim their minds from the attention economy.Main Themes:"Switch and Scroll" is a cumulative epidemic, mirroring the long-term costs of obesity.Multitasking forces the brain into superficial processing, blocking deep learning.The three costs of switching: slower speed, increased errors, and drained creativity.Constant micro-interruptions trigger physiological stress and background anxiety."Attention Theft" uses behavioral psychology to hijack focus without consent.Focus is an environmental condition that must be intentionally designed and protected.Top 10 Quotes:"When we multitask, we operate in the shallow end of the pool, thinking and processing at a very superficial level.""Where do new thoughts and innovation come from? They come from your brain shaping new connections out of what you've seen and heard and learned.""I didn't realize how flat my attention had become until it expanded again.""Attention now has economic value... The more attention they get, the more money they make.""Switching destabilizes identity, it fragments memory, it disrupts coherence, and over time, it can reshape who we think we are.""Focus is not just an individual skill; it's an environmental condition that can be designed and protected.""Most people learn focus by doing something that's either very important or very interesting to them.""You may not be able to change the trends of obesity in our society, but you can change them in your own life and home."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Comme chaque vendredi, un médecin spécialisé répond aux questions des auditrices de Priorité Santé. Cette semaine, nous parlons du lien entre fatigue et mémoire. Pourquoi la fatigue a-t-elle un impact sur notre mémoire ? Peut-on prévenir cette baisse de mémoire en agissant sur le niveau de fatigue ?

Mais, d'autres facteurs peuvent expliquer les trous de mémoire. Aujourd'hui, nous nous intéressons au lien entre fatigue et mémoire.

Cet affaiblissement général constitue, pour de nombreuses affections, un symptôme à ne pas négliger.      Dette de sommeil, stress ou système immunitaire affaibli   La fatigue ou l'asthénie peut avoir des origines nombreuses et diverses : la mauvaise qualité du sommeil (qui peut nécessiter des aménagements ou des explorations pour en comprendre les causes), qui peut être également associée à une maladie ou un trouble, tout comme à des périodes particulières (maternité, post-partum ou bouleversements comme un deuil, une agression, un changement de repères.).     Fatigue physique et fatigue mentale  Rechercher les causes de ces pertes de mémoire nécessite donc une remise à plat de ses habitudes : sommeil, emploi du temps, récupération, alimentation.

Unlike any generation before them, today's children are growing up in a world where screens, social media, and constant connectivity are woven into everyday life. Their friendships, self-image, and sense of belonging are being shaped not in classrooms or playgrounds, but in the curated feeds and endless notifications of their screens.  And while parents have become vigilant about supervising their children in the real world, few realize how unprotected they are in the digital one, where the boundaries are invisible and the influence relentless. Behind the statistics on rising anxiety, sleep loss, and attention struggles lies a deeper shift: the way technology is rewiring childhood itself.  We're not just seeing more anxious or distracted kids; we're witnessing a fundamental change in how they experience the world. The line between real and virtual life has blurred, and with it, the natural rhythms of play, rest, and connection.  What happens when the very tools designed to connect us start reshaping how children think, feel, and relate to others? Are we raising a generation more informed, or more isolated, than ever before? If technology is rewiring childhood itself, how do we begin to rewrite the story? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Carol Vidal, a child and adolescent psychiatrist at Johns Hopkins University. From TikTok "self-diagnoses" to the illusion of online friendships, Dr. Vidal helps us understand what's really happening inside the minds of today's youth, and how families can begin to take back control.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The hidden cost of "connection" Social media was designed to keep kids engaged, not safe. What happens when algorithms built for profit start shaping a generation's mental health? The new face of attention problems It's not always ADHD. Constant overstimulation from screens is raising the brain's threshold for focus, but can that attention be retrained? Sleep: the first casualty of late-night scrolling Blue light isn't the only culprit. How does nighttime screen use quietly unravel mood, behavior, and emotional stability? When identity goes digital Likes and followers have replaced real-world feedback. How does this reshape self-esteem, social development, and the ability to form real relationships?   About the Guest Dr. Carol Vidal is double-board certified in general and child and adolescent psychiatry. She is an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) School of Medicine and holds an adjunct appointment in the Department of Mental Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She completed her M.D. and PhD at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and MPH at Drexel University in Philadelphia, and residency in general psychiatry and fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at the University of Maryland. She provides clinical services through the JHU Bayview expanded school-based mental health program, evaluating and treating adolescents with behavioral and depressive disorders, and co-directs the SMART (School Mental Health Advice and Response Team) program, funded by the Maryland Department of Health to conduct a suicide prevention program in Baltimore City Schools. Dr. Vidal is the recipient of the NIDA/AACAP K12 (American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Physician Scientist Program in Substance Abuse Award) and studies the associations between cannabis use and suicide in adolescents using ecological momentary assessment methods. She has recently published a book called "Status and Social Comparisons Among Adolescents, Popularity in the Age of Social Media." Her research and clinical interests are around problematic digital media use, addictions, depression, and suicide-related behaviors in adolescents.

Selon la définition de l'OMS, l'éducation thérapeutique du patient «vise à aider les patients à acquérir ou maintenir les compétences dont ils ont besoin pour gérer au mieux leur vie avec une maladie chronique.» Cette acquisition de compétences permet d'obtenir une meilleure adhésion au traitement et donc une meilleure réponse thérapeutique.

Pour certaines maladies, les symptômes sont passagers et la guérison rapide, mais pour d'autres, les changements (troubles, fatigue, effets secondaires des traitements) vont devenir des compagnons de route pour le patient : la maladie chronique va imposer une cohabitation, parfois difficile, parfois douloureuse… Après l'annonce du diagnostic, se dessinent des années ponctuées par les symptômes, les crises, les phases de rémissions et de rechutes et pour éviter les complications, la nécessité d'une bonne observance.  Diabète, lupus, VIH, épilepsie, cancers...  Pour le patient, c'est un apprentissage au long cours pour mieux reconnaître les signaux, se familiariser avec les traitements, comme les usages des structures de santé ; un environnement et des soins que l'on n'a pas choisis, mais avec lesquels il va falloir composer. Certains patients–chronique vont engranger des connaissances, issues de leur propre expérience et/ou d'une formation dédiée, pour améliorer la santé des autres en transmettant ces compétences à leurs pairs. Dans certains services hospitaliers ou associations de malades, ils deviennent des acteurs-clé de l'éducation thérapeutique.   La valeur ajoutée de l'expertise patient  Les patients experts peuvent devenir l'interface entre les bénéficiaires concernés et les soignants, développant des qualités d'écoute, de communication, mais aussi de mise à distance raisonnée, pour savoir «rester à sa place». Le patient expert, référent de confiance, connaît sa maladie (en particulier les maladies rares ou complexes, qui nécessitent des suivis et des ajustements réguliers). Il en cerne à la fois les risques et les conséquences, ce qui permet de favoriser à la fois l'autonomie des patients et l'adhésion au traitement; l'observance.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton dive into one of the most emotionally exhausting realities of modern policing — the weight of constant public scrutiny. From viral videos to media narratives, today's officers live under a microscope where every move, every word, and every split-second decision can be judged, dissected, or weaponized online (Amazon Affiliate). This level of exposure doesn't just change how officers do their jobs — it fundamentally alters how they see themselves, their community, and their sense of worth. We unpack the psychological cost of this relentless pressure and explore what officers, departments, and families can do to protect mental health in an era where perception often overshadows truth.

“The Vagus Nerve Whisperer” joins The Aging Project Podcast. In this episode we go goes deep into one of the most important — and most overlooked — pillars of women's health: nervous system care. Shelley welcomes Tracy Whitton, a practitioner with 22 years' experience and a unique gift: the ability to feel, sense, and intuit what a woman's body is holding. Her clients call her “the vagus nerve whisperer” because of her work helping women calm, repair, and restore their nervous system. Tracy has seen the same pattern in thousands of women: We're living in constant overdrive — juggling kids, ageing parents, careers, rising stress, and the hormonal shifts of peri and menopause. Add past trauma or unresolved emotional load, and most women are living in fight-or-flight or shut-down mode without realising it. And here's the truth she shares:

Life is loud—holiday loud, work-notifications loud, “my brain won’t stop” loud. Psalm 23 reminds us that God doesn’t just suggest rest; sometimes He has to make us lie down so our souls can breathe again. In a world addicted to noise, reclaiming quiet becomes an act of trust and a doorway into genuine gratitude. When we intentionally pause—before the inbox, before the scrolling, before the schedule—we begin to uncover a steadier, quieter thankfulness that anchors us in God’s presence. Highlights God often has to “make” us rest because we naturally resist silence. Constant noise—from work, devices, and distraction—can drain the soul. Many of us fill forced downtime with more noise instead of inviting God into the quiet. Silence can feel uncomfortable, but it’s where God restores, steadies, and speaks. Starting with a simple morning gratitude rhythm helps reframe your day. Look for small pockets—commutes, showers, quiet moments—to pray and thank God. Choosing silence creates space for peace, intimacy, and a thankful heart. Gift Inspiration: Crosswalk's Holiday Gift Guide Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the season?

Full Transcript Below: A Heart of Thanks in a Season of NoiseBy Peyton Garland​​ Bible Reading: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.” Psalm 23:1-3 (NKJV) I recognize that most of the Old Testament was written in Hebrew, and most of the New Testament in Greek, so it’s not only safe but wise to assume that our English translation of each word of Scripture isn’t always an exact cultural match. However, I often chuckle at the verb that leads Psalm 23:2: “He makes me to lie down in green pastures…” (emphasis added). I’m quite certain that if Christ didn’t force me to lie down, to take a breath, to drown out the noise, I wouldn’t. Yet, when I push back against His command and allow life’s unfiltered chaos to control me, I become spiritually drained and crawl back to Him in an unhealthy emotional state, begging that He bring steadiness and peace to my loud world. Perhaps you can relate. You want to put down your phone and enjoy a family dinner or your kid’s ballgame, but you’re waiting on several important work emails to come through. You have to stay glued to your screen. Or you want to dedicate a few quiet moments to prayer, but your mind doesn’t know what to do with such empty headspace. Before long, you aren’t concentrated on God, but your mind has wandered to drafting a grocery list, scheduling a dentist appointment, overthinking a previous conversation with a friend, etc. Furthermore, in those moments when God “makes” us take a break, whether due to sickness, weather cancellations, or mandatory R&R from a boss, do we fill these opportunities for heavenly reprieve with shows that we binge all day? Do we stay glued to our social media reels? It’s as though we aren’t sure we can function–or even “rest”– without noise. I daresay that most of us are far too comfortable with noise and distractions. After all, it’s easier to be distracted with surface-level schedules and mindless social media scrolling than to sit in the silence where God can work on our hearts. If silence makes you uneasy and the quiet feels anything but peaceful, especially during the holidays, you aren’t alone. Many of us wrestle with the same anxiousness. However, mutual understanding doesn’t mean we leave one another in this frazzled state. Instead, let’s encourage each other to start with a short, simple act of thankfulness amid the quiet. When you first wake up in the morning, before you get out of bed and allow your cellular notifications to consume your mind, sit in the silence and thank God for three things in your life. This will only take a matter of seconds, but it will begin your day in a quiet atmosphere in which you invite God and His goodness into your life. Once you find a comfortable rhythm of listing three things each morning, push it to five, then ten. Start searching your daily routine for brief pockets of time where you can pray another list of thanksgivings to God, or where you can offer up prayers for wisdom, discernment, and patience. Consider taking the first five minutes of your commute to work to pray for family and friends. Allow yourself the first five minutes of your shower to be a time when you sing praises to God. His presence isn’t hard to access. He is forever available to talk with you. However, you must face your fear of the silence to sit in His grace and open yourself to a posture of thanksgiving in all life’s busyness. Truthfully, the noise won’t relent. It’s not only the hustle and bustle and chaos of the holidays that make us feel trapped in a muffled megaphone, but it’s also the everyday grind that we are subjected to in this modern world. Don’t cave to the chaos, though. Surrender it to God as you create pockets of peace to experience intimacy with your Savior. If you need a breakthrough prayer to begin this reckoning with the silence, start here: Jesus, in today’s world, we are far too familiar with noise. We are consumed and even controlled by the soundbites that engulf our heads and hearts, leaving little room for us to hear your voice. Please grant us the grace to consider our relationship with silence, and help us be courageous enough to open ourselves up to ways we can enter a silent, sacred space to better commune with you. Christ, may we use this quiet time to nurture a heart of gratitude for your unending love and eternal salvation. Amen. Intersecting Faith & Life:Take a few moments to jot down your general weekly/weekend schedule. Find 2-3 times each day that have room for silence. Pick one time slot to begin with and start whispering a simple, peaceful prayer of thanksgiving each day. See where your journey with silence takes you!

Il y a des épisodes qu'on rêve un jour de pouvoir enregistrer et celui-ci en fait partie.Dans CHEFS, vous le savez, on remonte les histoires, on parle de transmission, de cuisines qui se construisent, de brigades qui se soudent…Mais là, on vous embarque au cœur d'un moment fondateur de la gastronomie française contemporaine.Il faut remonter à la fin des années 80, au début des années 90.À cette époque, personne ou presque ne va dîner dans un palace — à moins d'y dormir. Les grandes tables des hôtels ne sont pas encore des destinations gastronomiques.Et puis un jour, l'Hôtel de Crillon confie sa cuisine à un chef nommé Christian Constant.Ce dernier rappelle alors son poulain Yves Camdeborde qui lui présente Éric Frechon, et avec Christophe Felder, ils vont former la bande du Crillon!C'est le début d'une aventure qui va tout changer.Vous allez entendre comment cette équipe s'est formée, comment Christian Constant est allé chercher “des humains avant tout”, des professionnels capables d'affronter une maison vieillissante, aux installations fatiguées, dans un contexte difficile. Yves Camdeborde décrire l'arrivée au Crillon comme “une bouffée d'oxygène”, après une période compliquée à la Tour d'Argent On entend Christophe Felder se souvenir du premier rendez-vous, de “l'accueil franc”, de cette intuition immédiate que “ça allait être aidant, formateur, vivant”. On entend Éric Frechon dire le challenge qui se dressait devant eux.Et puis, il y a la suite : Le travail. L'amitié. La rigueur.Les bières après le service.Le management participatif de Constant, “en avance sur son temps”, disent-ils.Et les plats historiques, le pied de cochon, le maquereau, les gestes canailles qui entrent dans un décor signé Sonia Rykiel, et qui finissent par faire bouger toute la restauration parisienne.Dans cet échange on comprend quelque chose de fondamental : au Crillon, on a inventé une manière de cuisiner sous les dorures et surtout une manière d'être ensemble.Une manière qui a contribué à former une pléiade de chefs :Thierry Breton, Thierry Faucher, Emmanuel Renaut, Jean-François Piège, Jean-François Rouquette, Gilles Marchal…Tous passés par là, tous marqués par cet esprit où “la passion”, “l'exigence”, “la rigueur”, “le respect du client”, “la confiance” ne sont jamais négociables.Dans cet épisode, les quatre racontent : comment ils se sont retrouvés, comment ils ont tenu, comment ils ont évolué, comment ils ne se sont jamais vraiment quittés...C'est un moment rare.Une conversation précieuse, directe, drôle, vraie.Une plongée dans l'histoire, racontée par ceux qui l'ont vécue.Une masterclass de management, de transmission, et d'humilité.Alors je suis très heureux de vous proposer cet épisode.Parce qu'il n'est pas seulement un retour vers une époque mythique.C'est un rappel :que derrière les grandes maisons, il y a des collectifs,que derrière les étoiles, il y a des équipes,que derrière les chefs, il y a des hommes.Bienvenue dans un chapitre clé de la gastronomie française avec la bande du Crillon !

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Andrew Griffiths as he shares his journey from a rough childhood to buying a dive shop at 17, making major mistakes, and eventually mastering business growth. He built a marketing company to multimillion-dollar success, survived partner betrayals, and later found his true passion in writing and speaking. With 14 bestselling books and over a thousand presentations in 25 countries worldwide, he focuses on helping small business owners build financial resilience and charge what they're worth. Andrew's focus is helping business owners to redefine success on their own terms, embrace what makes them truly unique, master the art of strategic storytelling and get as close as you can to your customers. His story is an inspiring example of resilience, reinvention, and long-term entrepreneurial thinking. Andrew's latest bestselling book "Someone has to be the most expensive why not make it you?" is transforming businesses across every industry, in every corner of the planet. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth.

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Andrew Griffiths, the hardest part of growing a small business is managing cash and money. He explained that in his early years, dealing with financial pressure and cash flow was the toughest challenge he faced while scaling his business. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Andrew Griffiths' favorite business book—the one that helped him the most — is "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Andrew Griffiths, while he consumes a wide range of learning material, one of the online learning resources he personally values is the work of Brendan Burchard, whose programs and coaching have influenced his professional development. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? According to Andrew Griffiths, a simple but powerful tool he recommends for growing a small business is your phone, using it to regularly record videos and communicate directly with customers to build stronger engagement and visibility. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Andrew Griffiths says that if he could give advice to himself on day one of starting his business, he would tell himself to trust his intuition, because many of the business mistakes he made over the years were situations where his gut was right, but he ignored it and let logic overrule it.  Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.

Ok, it's FINALLY time to talk Miller's Crossing.  Talking about a real film.  A masterpiece.  A thing that involves acting and cameras that were pointed at things on purpose.  Or so we thought.  For one shining moment.   But no.  People keep dying and so instead we are here to honor the late, great Ace Frehley by wrestling with the low budget, low quality, made for TV hype-fest known as Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park. Nick, Anthony, and Elise recount ninety six minutes of commercial breaks disguised as a movie.  Fair Weather Manny takes another hall pass and risks getting relegated to Geoff.  We get villains in underground lairs, a gorilla chained up for reasons no human can explain, Gene Simmons sounding like he swallowed a box fan, and a performance from KISS that looks exactly as good as KISS actually looks.  There are fights, mummies, kabuki dancers, malfunctioning rides, and the CONSTANT reminder: KISS is performing tonight!  This production had more ADR than plot and more confusion than continuity.  Join Abner's clones in wondering why are we here. Still, there is joy in the pain.  There are puns.  There are jokes about platform boots and worrying about hypnotized fans.  There is the proud moment when we all realize we are watching this so you can listen Frehley.  This is not a journey to take alone.  Grab a drink, grab a friend, and let's power through to a brighter tomorrow.

Access to land for hunting, fishing, and gathering are foundational provisions in so many treaties between tribes and the federal government, but individual hunters and anglers are frequently challenged when out exercising those treaty rights. The legal justifications were settled decades ago following landmark rulings such as the Boldt Decision in Washington State and, more recently, in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals judgement in favor of tribal hunting access on ceded lands in Idaho. We'll review some of the history of hunting rights and how those continue to be scrutinized. GUESTS Dr. Cleve Davis (Shoshone-Bannock Tribes), a Ph.D in environmental science and the author of “So Long As Game May Be Found Thereon” Charlie Smith (Fond Du Lac band of Lake Superior Chippewa), advisor for Indigenous Business Consulting firm and a member of the Fond du Lac Band Ceded Territory conservation committee Derrick James (Choctaw), reporter for NonDoc.com

In this episode of r/LegbeardStories we encounter an online hive of beards. That's right, a legbeard mother and a neckbeard father all playing pretend with a bunch of innocent kids. Legbeard stories rarely get this ridiculous... But here we are. They say they're a family... But they're actually a dysfunctional mess eating away at the lives and self-esteem of literal children by playing out their little pretend drama. Online interactions can be dangerous, and it leads to quite a disturbing legbeard story. It doesn't matter what your background is, you always need to treat people like people and not use them simply to get off. Neckbeards seem to learn this lesson particularly slow and it really does make my blood boil... So we must bring it to light so others don't suffer alone.

Episode Description Your autoimmune condition, chronic fatigue, and inability to manifest aren't health problems—they're symptoms of suppressed emotional energy. While the wellness industry pushes billions in supplements, clean eating protocols, and biohacking tools, we're missing what's really blocking true healing: unprocessed rage, grief, and trauma trapped in your body. Dr. G sits down with Mia Magic, an author and embodiment practitioner, to reveal the truth: every autoimmune flare, every anxiety spiral, and every block in your life is your body's way of communicating about unexpressed emotions and nervous system dysregulation. But the most shocking revelation? "Constant emotional suppression is an act of abuse that we're inflicting upon our inner children every single day." Discover the profound mind-body-spirit connection behind chronic illness and why emotional boundaries and feminine power are directly linked to something called "cellular memory"—allowing you to access ancestral strength and restore your God-given state of receiving. If you've tried every supplement stack and elimination diet without results, this episode reveals the missing piece. In This Episode: ⚫ How chronic emotional suppression creates autoimmune conditions and nervous system breakdown ⚫ Why women's health crisis is fundamentally an emotional crisis, not a physical one ⚫ The connection between unexpressed rage and autoimmune conditions in women ⚫ How trauma stored in the body blocks manifestation and feminine power ⚫ Why giving yourself permission to feel is the foundation of true healing ⚫ The link between destruction of Earth and destruction of the womb space ⚫ How to access cellular memory and reclaim ancestral strength Find Mia Magik here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/miamagik Website: https://miamagik.com/ Timestamps: 0:00 - Why Women Are Spiritually Awakening Now 2:37 - What Real Feminine Power Actually Looks Like 6:46 - If Women Reclaimed Their Power, Everything Would Change 8:06 - From Childhood Magic to Healing Work 13:05 - Cellular Memory: Knowledge From Past Lives 24:01 - Why 80% of Autoimmune Conditions Affect Women 27:17 - Rage Rituals: Releasing What You've Never Been Allowed to Feel 32:23 - What Happens After Women Release Their Rage 40:05 - The Courage to Face Your Shadow Self 46:23 - Why Women Are Sexually Repressed and How to Heal 50:51 - Sacred Sexuality: Making Sex Medicine, Not a Transaction 59:02 - How Women Can Hold Space for Masculine Vulnerability 1:07:15 - Why Your Voice Is Your Most Powerful Tool 1:13:44 - The Womb as Portal: What You're Really Birthing Each Month

This episode is the personal testimony of Micah, a 42-year-old former Jehovah's Witness, detailing his life within the organization, his subsequent departure, and his journey toward recovery and self-redefinition. Born into the religion to parents with significant personal trauma, Micah's childhood was defined by a "constant white knuckle paralytic terror" of Armageddon. His life was marked by a series of compounding traumas, including the death of his father at age 13, a profound lack of emotional support from his family and congregation, and severe mental health struggles leading to multiple suicide attempts. Micah's narrative illustrates a cyclical pattern of rejection, self-destructive behavior, and attempts to conform to the group's expectations, resulting in two instances of being disfellowshipped. He describes feeling like a "non-entity," with his authentic self—expressed through writing, art, and comedy—consistently suppressed. The breaking point came during the COVID-19 pandemic, which, coupled with escalating substance abuse and a final confrontation with an elder, led to his arrest, incarceration, and subsequent homelessness. His recovery began in a halfway house where he identified the recovery program, Alcoholics Anonymous, as another high-control group with cult-like tactics. This realization prompted a period of intense deconstruction, where he researched cult dynamics and logical fallacies, leading to the definitive conclusion that he was raised in a cult. By reclaiming his identity through his lifelong passion for writing, Micah published a series of books, starting with his memoir Mentally Diseased. This creative process was the catalyst for rebuilding his life, paying off debt, establishing a new community, and finding a sense of empowerment. His story is a powerful account of the damaging effects of high-control groups and the potential for profound personal transformation through authentic self-expression.

Not even about anything important—just that familiar dance where one person brings something up, the other gets defensive, and within minutes you're both exhausted and further apart than when you started.Here's what nobody tells you: more talking won't fix it. Better communication techniques won't fix it. Because when you're already in reactive mode, your brain literally can't access the parts responsible for empathy and perspective-taking.In this episode, I share the story of Rick and Diane—a couple married 25 years who came to me stuck in what I call the "bicker-escalate-disconnect" loop. They didn't save their marriage by learning to communicate better. They saved it by learning to slow down their nervous systems first.In this episode:Why your brain can't process your partner's perspective when you're defensive (it's neurological, not a character flaw)The speed problem that keeps couples stuck in the same argumentsWhat's actually happening underneath the bickering (spoiler: it's not about the dishes)Why disconnection feels easier—and why that's the biggest trapThe one skill that actually breaks the cycle (and it's not what you think)How Rick and Diane reconnected without needing to talk more, solve more, or explain moreIf you're exhausted from the same fights and wondering if there's a way out, this episode will show you where to actually start. Hint: it's not with better words—it's with a calmer nervous system.Resources mentioned: 

In 72 hours, my life changed forever.In August 2023, nurses rushed me to Portsmouth Regional Hospital, where they discovered my dangerously high blood sugar levels, the classic precursor for a diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes. I stayed for the weekend, and left the hospital as a completely different person.Since then, diabetes has made my life extremely complicated:Waking up sweaty in the middle of the night by dangerously low blood sugar levels. Carrying sugary snacks on me everywhere I go. Visiting the pharmacy every other day to pick up yet another (expensive) piece of diabetes supplies.Nearly dying on multiple occasions.That's the reality for a Type 1 diabetic, a reality that's intimately understood by actress Elle Shaheen (yes, that Shaheen). And this November, Diabetes Awareness Month, it's about time to shed a light on life with this disease.Diagnosed at eight years old, Elle - daughter of N.H. politician Stefany Shaheen and granddaughter of U.S. senator Jeanne Shaheen - has lived with this disease the majority of her life. Even after 18 years of managing this disease, diabetes still haunts her every day.Elle is the subject of the 2016 New York Times bestseller, "Elle & Coach," Stefany Shaheen's book about Elle's diagnosis, the effect of diabetes on their family, and the medical alert dog - Coach - that brought some much-needed relief to the Shaheen's chaotic lives.From the West End of Portsmouth, we discuss our near-death experiences with diabetes, her work as an advocate, meeting President Obama, growing up with a medical dog by her side at all times, and whether researchers will find a cure in our lifetimes.Plus, Elle's time in the Portsmouth theater scene, her Broadway dreams, and life in Hollywood during the entertainment industry's existential crisis.To support finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes, you can donate here to Breakthrough T1D, the organization responsible for leading the fight against this disease.CHAPTERS:What is Type 1 diabetes?

From teenage mum. To leading L'Oréal New Zealand. To Salon CEO

In this special holiday shopping Business of Woo-themed episode of The Skeptical Shaman podcast, host Rachel White (of TOTEM Readings) chats with friend and fellow e-commerce small business owner Amy Steffek (of Puck Hcky) all about the trials and tribulations of selling stuff online. In the Business of Woo, the pressure to produce and sell products online is fierce, coming along with phrases like "passive income" and "scale". And, while it's good to diversify and sell real, high-quality products online for any Woo-based or other small business owner, it's not the panacea that online influencers and spiritual grifters tell you it is. Just ask Amy! Sure, she may not be in the Business of Woo, but her small, online, cult following apparel business has taught her a lot about the difference between how things look from the outside-- and what the reality is on the inside.Take, for instance, Amy's 7-figure year. Yes, her online business literally pierced a MILLION DOLLARS (said in Dr. Evil voice) one year, but that's just revenue, guys. What was her profit, you might be asking? $0. Yep, that's right. In one year, she made more money than ever before-- and wasn't able to pay herself a dime for it. And this is NOT unusual in the business world and, in particular, the Business of Woo. The key? Constant tweaks and adjustments in the face of shifting economic and industrial factors is crucial-- and never mistake revenue for margin.What's more: turns out, our fellow humans aren't really doing great, and the mental health crisis affecting our nation is bubbling up for anyone interacting with the general public-- especially if those interactions are online. Anyone that runs an online business gets near-daily abuse and, in spite of all of our love and light tools, trust me when I tell you: it has an aggregate negative impact on anyone on the receiving end.This episode is hitting just as we're all heading out into the interwebs to start holiday shopping for friends, family and loved ones, arming us with a heightened awareness of how best to interact with our fellow human beings. Business owners are people, too. And no, they're not always rich. Often, they're tired and just trying to make their cool thing work so others can enjoy it.Proceed accordingly!LINKS:Rachel's Website: https://www.totemreadings.comTOTEM Readings Substack: https://totemrach.substack.comRachel's Other Links: https://linktr.ee/totemrachPlease support the Sponsors of The Skeptical Shaman Podcast:The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck: https://a.co/d/gw16LsGThe TOTEM Tarot Deck: https://totemreadingsatx.etsy.com/listing/1492934343The TOTEM Flower Essences: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TotemReadingsATXTOTEM Spiritual Transformation Coaching: https://www.totemreadings.com/coachingTOTEM Business of Woo Mentoring: https://www.totemreadings.com/business-of-wooAmy's Links:https://puckhcky.com/https://www.instagram.com/puckhcky/Please note: The views and opinions expressed on The Skeptical Shaman do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

They tackle everything from current headlines to personal discipline, empathy, and standing up to extremism.

There is an emotional toll to chronic negativity. Constant criticism or defensiveness doesn't just chip away at trust—it creates emotional distance. Partners start protecting themselves rather than reaching for each other, and intimacy suffers. Every couple experiences tension, disagreements, and frustrations, but when negativity becomes the main storyline, love starts to get buried under criticism, defensiveness, and resentments. 

We need to be very careful to see ourselves in the pages of Exodus because they contain lessons about mistakes before God.  Constant grumbling, complaining, and putting God on trial were things that greatly angered God and caused the children of Israel to miss the Promised Land.  How much more for us who do the same?  This is a place to reset and get an attitude adjustment as we journey through the wilderness of our life.  Exodus 17  VF-2512 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.
