Have you ever felt like your eating disorder didn't have a name, or that what you were going through just didn't quite fit? This episode is for you.This week on the Full of Beans Podcast, I'm joined by Dr Ruth Cruickshank, Associate Professor at Royal Holloway, University of London. Ruth has a background in French literature, but has carved out a truly unique space in eating disorder research, using her expertise in critical reading, food studies and her own lived experience of OSFED to ask the questions that others simply aren't asking.Ruth is the only academic in the humanities working on OSFED, and she is doing extraordinary work to challenge why the most common eating disorder diagnosis remains so systemically overlooked.In this episode, we explore:How Ruth's career took her from French literature and advertising to eating disorder researchHow representations of food in fiction carry deeper psychological and cultural meaningsWhat OSFED is and why it matters that so many people have never heard of itWhy OSFED and UFED remain under-researched despite being the most common eating disorder diagnosesThe danger of diagnostic criteria focused on weight and behaviour rather than distress and daily impactWhy not having a name for your experience can be so isolating and why that validation mattersThe "not sick enough" narrative and how diagnostic language can keep people stuckWhether a truly person-centred approach to eating disorder treatment could change everythingWhat Ruth wants anyone to know if they've never been able to name their experienceConnect with Us:Subscribe to the Full of Beans PodcastFollow Full of Beans on InstagramCheck out our websiteListen on YouTubeConnect with Ruth via her Research ProfileRead Ruth's research:Challenging the enduring epistemic injustice of eating disorders: Critically re-reading Occupation food insecurity in the Trente Glorieuses with Elsa Triolet and the 1944–1945 ‘Minnesota Starvation Experiment'Not knowing and the problematics of naming eating disorders: OSFED/EDNOS/TCA-NS and Annie Ernaux's Mémoire de fille [A Girl's Story]⚠️ Content Note: This episode includes discussion of OSFED, anorexia, bulimia, and the difficulty of language in eating disorder treatment.

Nine Mile Metals CEO Patrick Cruickshank joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on drilling at the company's Wedge Mine project, where hole DDH WD-26-02 has successfully intersected multiple zones of copper-bearing mineralization, including a newly identified volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) horizon at depth. Cruickshank said the drill hole intersected base metal sulphides, pyrite, and chalcopyrite mineralization from 39.2 metres to 273.35 metres, confirming the presence of a large and robust mineralized system. Two distinct copper-bearing VMS horizons were identified, including a newly discovered lower zone that management views as particularly significant. The first mineralized interval was encountered between 105.8 metres and 114.3 metres, returning an 8.5-metre zone characterized by abundant pyrite and visible chalcopyrite within black sedimentary units. A second and newly identified copper-rich VMS horizon was intersected between 204.6 metres and 222.3 metres, representing a true width of approximately 17.7 metres. This zone contains an estimated 70% sulphides, including visible chalcopyrite, pyrite, galena, and sphalerite, suggesting the potential for copper, zinc, lead, silver, and gold mineralization. The hole was drilled through siliceous volcanic rocks and banded sediments, with pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization becoming increasingly prominent with depth. The discovery of the lower VMS horizon expands the mineralized footprint of the Wedge system and supports the company's belief that a substantial copper-dominant mineralizing system remains open for further exploration. Cruickshank noted that the massive to semi-massive nature of the sulphide mineralization is encouraging, and the company is eagerly awaiting certified assay results to determine the grades of copper, zinc, lead, gold, and silver contained within the newly intersected zones. Management believes the results continue to demonstrate the scale and strength of the Wedge Mine system and provide additional evidence that the project hosts significant VMS exploration potential within New Brunswick's prolific Bathurst Mining Camp. The company expects to release assay results and updates from subsequent drill holes as exploration progresses. #proactiveinvestors #ninemilemetlas #cse #nine #otc #vmxsxf #mining #wedgemine #CopperExploration #WedgeMine #VMS #MiningNews #CopperMining #NewBrunswickMining #CriticalMinerals #ExplorationDrilling #ResourceDiscovery

Brief summary of show: What can Navy SEAL training teach you about leadership, business, and life? In this episode of Anything But Typical, Gary and Ben sit down with retired Navy SEAL Lieutenant Commander Tim Cruickshank, founder of Bone Frog Coffee Company, to break down the mindset, discipline, and team-first philosophy that shaped his journey. Tim shares how elite military training—including BUD/S and combat deployments—built the mental toughness and adaptability he now uses as an entrepreneur. More importantly, he reveals how his business was born out of a deeper mission: honoring fallen teammates and supporting Gold Star families. This episode is a powerful conversation on leadership, resilience, entrepreneurship, and what it truly means to put others first—in business, family, and life. Key topics discussed: 00:01:00 – The “heartbeat question” and defining your legacy 00:05:00 – Military upbringing and lessons in integrity and trust 00:09:00 – How Tim decided to become a Navy SEAL 00:18:00 – What BUD/S training is really like (mental + physical) 00:29:00 – Building mental toughness: “30 seconds at a time” mindset 00:33:00 – Combat lessons: adaptability, leadership, and trust 00:38:00 – Transitioning from military to entrepreneurship 00:39:00 – The origin story of Bone Frog Coffee Company 00:41:00 – Starting a business with no experience + finding mentors 00:47:00 – Building during COVID and learning from customers 00:49:00 – Leadership lessons from Navy SEAL training applied to business 00:54:00 – Scaling impact and giving back to Gold Star families Key takeaways: Leadership starts with serving others first, not yourself Mental toughness is built through small, repeatable wins under pressure The best teams are built on trust, accountability, and shared hardship Entrepreneurship requires adaptability, humility, and constant learning Purpose-driven businesses create deeper loyalty and long-term impact Surrounding yourself with mentors accelerates growth significantly Common questions answered in this episode: What is BUD/S training like? BUD/S (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training) is one of the most intense military training programs in the world, designed to push candidates mentally and physically. It focuses heavily on teamwork, resilience, and mental endurance, with extremely high attrition rates. How do Navy SEALs build mental toughness? Navy SEALs develop mental toughness by breaking overwhelming challenges into smaller time increments (like 30 seconds at a time), controlling their mindset, and learning to operate under extreme stress and discomfort. What leadership lessons come from Navy SEAL training? Key leadership lessons include: Put your team before yourself Adapt quickly under pressure Communicate clearly in chaos Earn trust through consistency and action How do you start a business with no experience? Tim's approach: Surround yourself with experts and mentors Start small and iterate quickly Listen to customer feedback Stay consistent and adaptable What makes a purpose-driven business successful? A purpose-driven business builds deeper customer loyalty by aligning its mission with impact. In this case, giving back to Gold Star families and honoring fallen heroes creates emotional connection and long-term brand trust.

Interview with Patrick Cruickshank, Director & CEO of Nine Mile MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/nine-mile-metals-csenine-vms-drilling-unlocks-expansion-potential-5410Recording date: 5th February 2026Nine Miles Metals (CSE: NINE) is emerging as a significant explorer in New Brunswick's Bathurst Mining Camp, controlling 140 square kilometers of continuous land across four volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) projects. Following a transformative year of advanced geophysical work, CEO Patrick Cruickshank has outlined an aggressive 2026 exploration strategy backed by recently completed $5.5 million financing providing two years of capital.The company's flagship Nine Mile Brook project hosts what Cruickshank describes as the highest-grade lens ever recorded in Bathurst: 12% copper, 38% lead-zinc, 1,200 grams per ton silver, and 2.4 grams per ton gold over 15 meters of solid mineralization. While these exceptional grades present processing challenges—the hybrid nature requires specialized milling solutions—the company is developing a unique bulk sample processing approach with updates expected shortly.The historic Wedge mine represents a different opportunity. This past-producing deposit operated by Caminco in the 1950s-60s was abandoned when its head pillar collapsed, leaving two-thirds of known mineralization in place. Recent drilling discovered an eastern extension with intercepts up to 134 meters, while a just-completed program tested depth and southwestern extensions with assays pending. Management targets proving 7-10 million tons at Wedge to reach economic thresholds.Nine Miles Metals' competitive edge lies in systematic application of modern technology. The company flew 1,400 line kilometers of UAV drone geophysics, identifying 11 new mineralized trends. This approach delivered an 80% drill success rate at California Lake East, hitting mineralization in eight of ten holes.With 185 million shares outstanding, reduced overhead ($300,000 annual savings from office relocation), and drilling costs of just $85-100 per meter in a jurisdiction offering 30-day permitting, the company is positioned to execute multiple 2026 catalysts: pending Wedge assays, April drilling resumption at both Nine Mile Brook and Wedge, and government-funded California Lake exploration—all while maintaining optionality for strategic partnerships or sector consolidation.View Nine Mile Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/nine-mile-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Geoff Cruickshank became interested over a decade ago in claims that JFK sought the truth about UFOs and was at first blocked by a highly secretive control group called MJ-12 before being assassinated. Cruickshank uncovered important documents among newly declassified JFK assassination files which provide critical support for leaked MJ-12 documents that reveal a highly coordinated campaign to frustrate JFK's quest to get to the truth about UFOs. These leaked MJ-12 documents include a leaked June 28, 1961 document requesting the then director the CIA, Allen Dulles, to share information about MJ-12's “Cold War Psychological Warfare Plans” Cruickshank explains the connection between MJ-12 and psychological warfare, and his discovery of declassified diary entries showing that Dulles visited JFK twice on June 28.In addition, Cruickshank explains the significance of the leaked 1961 Burned Memo, and its significance due to the inclusion of a cryptic assassination directive and its reference in another leaked smoking gun Top Secret memorandum issued on November 12, 1963, only 10 days before JFK's assassination. Cruickshank also presents his reasons for why a Hotline conversation between JFK and Nikita Kruschchev discussing their respective challenges in sharing UFO related information due to opposition by legacy UFO programs.Geoff Cruickshank is a security consultant, engineer, and researcher based in Darwin, in the Northern Territory of Australia. He's a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and worked as a Mission Support Specialist with Boeing at a high security defense facility in Darwin. https://www.linkedin.com/in/geoff-cruickshank/Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

So he placed a bold wager: Bobby Jones to win the British Amateur, British Open, and U.S. Open in the same year. Spoiler alert: He did.What followed was a legendary payout, a swirl of myths involving the IRS and the New York Times, and one of the most enduring tales in golf history.This episode dives into fact vs. folklore, the brilliance of Bobby Jones, and what it means to believe in greatness before the rest of the world catches up.

My dear friend, Tim Cruickshank, retired Navy SEAL and CEO of Bonefrog Coffee, joined me in studio. We talked a bit about grief because he has lost the most important person in the world to him, his wife, Liz. This is the toughest battle that this warrior has ever fought. He wasn't quite ready to talk about much of it. We talked about what his wife meant to him and about what it is to be a Navy SEAL. And Tim shared with us the kids that he and Liz raised, and how they're stepping in to help with Bonefrog. What does God's Word say? “Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted” (Matthew 5:4, NKJV).Episode 1,713 Links:The Brian Brill FoundationAlan's Soapshttps://alanssoaps.com/TODDUse coupon code ‘TODD' to save an additional 10% off the bundle price.Bioptimizershttps://magbreakthrough.com/toddfreeVisit this website to get your 30-capsule bottle of Magnesium Breakthrough for FREE today!

You will hear Tim Cruickshanks' speech from our event, God Wins, outside of Seattle on October 10, 2023. There was a woman in the audience who was not supposed to be there, in fact she was supposed to be dead. This woman is Tim's wife, Liz. God gave her the energy to come to this event as she battles cancer. Tim is a 25 year veteran with Seal teams as a physician's assistant, or at least he was a physician's assistant. He was fired from his position for ‘spending too much time taking care of his wife'. You will hear what Liz said when Tim delivered the news and how God led them to alternate treatment for Liz. God revealed to him that the medical system is not just broken, but killing people and shares what he believes God's role is in all of this.What does God's Word say? 2 Timothy 1:7For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.Jeremiah 17:14Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise.Jeremiah 33:6 Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.1 Peter 2:24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed.Psalm 41:3 The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.James 5:15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.Mark 2:17On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”Episode 1,176 Links:http://Hope4Cancer.comHttp://TheToddHermanShow.com/HelpTim
