Your village is out there, waiting for you. It might even be knocking on your door, and you haven't realized. People often think they need to make enormous shifts to find community; they need to move to a tiny village on the other side of the world or into a compound in the woods. But that's not true. Here's what you actually need: subtle shifts and a willingness to be uncomfortable. So many people talk about how they want a village, and yet, I see them rejecting the small changes they need to make to let their villages in. They won't accept help – a ride to the airport, a babysitter, a pre-cooked meal – because they don't want to put a person out or let go of control.I can offer to pick up your groceries or watch your children over and over again. I am choosing that; I want to be in community with you. But at the end of the day, you have to want that, too. We need to co-create this relationship and support system together. In this episode you'll hear about:Community, which is cited as the answer for societal issues like childcare/elder care shortages, mental health issues, etc. – but rarely is there advice on how to find itThe idea of “hiring” a village – a message families often hear – for grocery pick-ups, babysitting, Uber rides, etc.Rejecting help when you need it because you feel like you can't accept unpaid help or are unwilling to let go of controlThe level of internal required to step off the hamster wheel and be willing to feel discomfort in either asking for help or offering itResources & LinksListen to Episode 8 with my friend Adrienne about building a friendship community for her family.Like what you hear?

The hosts break down every detail of the Fisk vs The Cat showdown while exploring how Spider-Man finds himself caught in the middle of their conflict.Fisk vs The Cat: A Clash of Strength and StrategyThe hosts begin by dissecting the intricate dynamics between Fisk and Black Cat. As Black Cat seeks to outmaneuver Fisk in her quest for vengeance, the Kingpin uses his vast resources and criminal empire to maintain control.

The wildest thing about sleep is that the more we battle it, the further we get from it.Today's podcast episode explores why insomnia feels like a battle for so many, and why that mindset might be holding you back.I spent most of my life wrestling with insomnia, believing that if I just tried hard enough, I could overcome it.Imagine my surprise to learn it was the exact opposite of that.Sleep isn't something we overcome. It's something we allow.In fact, seeing it as a fight makes our brain think there's a threat, keeping us in fight-or-flight.In this episode, I share a personal story that flipped my perspective. Here's what else I cover:Why insomnia doesn't respond to force or controlThe surprising benefits of not viewing sleep as a battleSimple shifts that help your brain feel safe enough to sleepWhy fighter harder makes it go slowerWhen you step out of the battle and decide to become a teacher that's when the healing beginsIf you're tired of struggling and want a different approach, this episode could be exactly what you're looking for. It's not about trying harder — it's about creating a mental space where sleep feels safe and easy again.Connect with Beth Kendall:

“Joy comes to us in ordinary moments. We risk missing out on joy when we get too busy chasing down the extraordinary.” – Dr. Brené Brown, The Gifts of ImperfectionWhat if joy, intuition, and calm were available to you right now, regardless of life's challenges or uncertainties?In this episode of Love & Learn, we explore three more guideposts from Brené Brown's The Gifts of Imperfection. These guideposts remind us that by practicing gratitude, trusting our intuition, and cultivating stillness, we can release scarcity, control, and anxiety, making room for more joy, faith, and peace in our lives.In this episode, we'll uncover:How gratitude opens the door to joy, even in imperfect momentsWhy trusting intuition and faith requires letting go of controlThe importance of calm and stillness as antidotes to anxiety in a fast-paced worldKEY TAKEAWAYS:1. Gratitude is the Key to Joy: We often think joy comes after achieving something or when life is perfect, but Dr. Brené Brown reminds us that joy and gratitude can be accessed in any moment—no matter how imperfect. Practicing gratitude, even during difficult times, opens the door to joy by shifting our focus from scarcity to abundance. It's about embracing the present, and the vulnerability that comes with truly appreciating what we have in this very moment.2. Trusting Faith and Our Intuition Means Letting Go of Control: Intuition and faith help us navigate uncertainty, yet we often crave control and guarantees before trusting our inner wisdom. Dr. Brené Brown defines intuition as a blend of knowledge, insight, instinct, experience, faith, and reason. By letting go of the need for certainty, we allow ourselves to trust the process and embrace the mystery of life. Faith isn't about having all the answers—it's about trusting that we'll find our way through the unknown.3. Calm and Stillness Are Antidotes to Anxiety: In a world that glorifies busyness and treadmill to-do lists to nowhere, cultivating calm and stillness is essential for emotional well-being. Dr. Brené Brown encourages us to let go of anxiety as a lifestyle by grounding ourselves in the present and responding to life's challenges with patience and mindfulness. Calm is contagious, and by practicing stillness—whether through meditation, nature walks, or quiet reflection—we create the space needed for clarity and inner peace.Remember: By cultivating gratitude, trusting our intuition, and embracing calm, we can transform the way we experience life's uncertainties and challenges. These practices are the keys to living a more joyful, peaceful, and fulfilling life.Tune in and join us as we explore how these practices can change your life.ALL CONCEPTS FROM THE GIFTS OF IMPERFECTIONLetting Go of Living from a Place of UNWORTHINESSLetting Go of PERFECTIONISM, PEOPLE-PLEASING, and NumbingLetting Go of the NEED FOR CERTAINTY, Anxiety as a Lifestyle, and ScarcityCONNECT WITH DR.

In this episode, Dr. Laura takes us on a captivating journey into the realms of spiritual mapping, parasites, and their impact on mental illness. Through spiritual mapping, we uncover hidden defilement and iniquity that may be rooted in our communities and institutions. Dr. Laura explores the intriguing link between parasites and mental health, shedding light on how these microscopic organisms can potentially alter physiological processes and contribute to conditions like schizophrenia. We delve into the field of epigenetics, examining how our thoughts and lifestyle choices can influence gene expression and future generations. Additionally, we explore the emerging field of optogenetics and its manipulation of memory and brain activity. Throughout the episode, Dr. Laura emphasizes the importance of breaking free from mind control on a soul and spirit level, offering practical advice on parasite cleanses and aligning thoughts with the mind of Christ. Join us as we embark on this thought-provoking and liberating exploration.Highlights:Spiritual mapping and its process of uncovering defilement and iniquityThe concept of strongholds and their impact on human thinking and behaviorThe role of epigenetics in influencing future generationsMethods to break territorial strongholds through prayer and spiritual cleansingThe Nephilim agenda and its aim to defile the human genomeThe identification of individuals with Nephilim traitsThe concept of Nephilim hosts and their influence in global governanceThe use of parasites and optogenetics in mind controlThe connection between parasites and mental illnessesMind control techniques such as optogenetics and memory manipulationThe ethical implications of manipulating memory in humansThe use of virus vectors in studying brain activityThe impact of LED lights on optogeneticsStrategies for breaking free from control by renewing the mind and aligning thoughts with the mind of ChristAbout Dr. Laura SangerDr. Laura Sanger is a Clinical Psychologist, author of The Roots of the Federal Reserve and small business owner.

Today, I chat with Gianclaudio Malgieri, an expert in privacy, data protection, AI regulation, EU law, and human rights. Gianclaudio is an Associate Professor of Law at Leiden University, the Co-director of the Brussels Privacy Hub, Associate Editor of the Computer Law & Security Review, and co-author of the paper "The Unfair Side of Privacy Enhancing Technologies: Addressing the Trade-offs Between PETs and Fairness". In our conversation, we explore this paper and why privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) are essential but not enough on their own to address digital policy challenges.Gianclaudio explains why PETs alone are insufficient solutions for data protection and discusses the obstacles to achieving fairness in data processing – including bias, discrimination, social injustice, and market power imbalances. We discuss data alteration techniques such as anonymization, pseudonymization, synthetic data, and differential privacy in relation to GDPR compliance. Plus, Gianclaudio highlights the issues of representation for minorities in differential privacy and stresses the importance of involving these groups in identifying bias and assessing AI technologies. We also touch on the need for ongoing research on PETs to address these challenges and share our perspectives on the future of this research. Topics Covered: What inspired Gianclaudio to research fairness and PETsHow PETs are about power and controlThe legal / GDPR and computer science perspectives on 'fairness'How fairness relates to discrimination, social injustices, and market power imbalances How data obfuscation techniques relate to AI / ML How well the use of anonymization, pseudonymization, and synthetic data techniques address data protection challenges under the GDPRHow the use of differential privacy techniques may led to unfairness Whether the use of encrypted data processing tools and federated and distributed analytics achieve fairness 3 main PET shortcomings and how to overcome them: 1) bias discovery; 2) harms to people belonging to protected groups and individuals autonomy; and 3) market imbalances.Areas that warrant more research and investigation Resources Mentioned:Read: "The Unfair Side of Privacy Enhancing Technologies: Addressing the Trade-offs Between PETs and Fairness"Guest Info: Connect with Gianclaudio on LinkedInLearn more about Brussles Privacy HubSend us a Text Message.Privado.aiPrivacy assurance at the speed of product development.

In today's episode I'm tackling a trending topic- hormonal birth control. Ironically, this episode is releasing in the wake of a controversial Washington Post article (which I will link below in the show notes) about the explosion of women who are stopping their birth control because they aren't have a positive experience while on it.I have blogged on this topic in years past, and done several posts on Instagram, but I wanted to do a full podcast, because it's something I feel very very passionate about.Women deserve to have all the information PRIOR to taking birth control, and unfortunately many times they are not given this by their providers.In today's episode I will discuss:The widespread use of hormonal birth controlThe dangers of giving birth control use to teenage girls Why natural ovulation is important for women's health Why birth control is not a true root cause solution, at best it is symptom managementThe short and long term side effects of birth control use_____________________________________Washington Post articleLMNT- grab a free sample pack!Join me on the 'gram!

Neil Mackinnon describes himself as a curious human, and his curiosity has guided him throughout a remarkable career in which he has been immersed in creative projects, surrounded by creative people, and focussed on creative potential.Crucially, he has also spent a great deal of his life listening and being truly present to what has occurred around him, and these qualities aided a sense of catharsis and newfound aliveness when he first experienced coaching.Neil is one of the new hosts of The Coach's Journey Podcast, and in this episode he gets to the heart of why coaching has become such a prominent focus of a life in which he has worked as a professional musician, a creative producer for Europe's largest centre for the arts, and now as a faculty member at the Academy of Executive Coaching.He explains how skilful coaches helped him access the power and potential of coaching to overcome profound challenges in his work, and how coaching appealed to his sense of adventure and his disposition as a man fascinated by all industries, all people, and all walks of life. In this episode, we also talk about:How to choose a coaching organisation to train withThe hidden messages that lie within our resistance to coachingBuilding autonomy through your locus of controlThe profound potency of core coaching competenciesCoaching as a relational business, in which your network really matters Neil, who has his own podcast called Creative Practice, also speaks to the deeper work of coaching, and the change that becomes possible when we find the courage to step into our shadow.For more information about Neil, visit https://neilmackinnon.net/For information about Robbie's wider work, his writing or to buy his books, visit www.robbieswale.com.Music by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.
