In this episode, as has been for a couple weeks, we continue to look at the sermon on the plain, looking at Luke 6:37-45. In this passage we read of Jesus' instruction as it relates to judging others, and a tree and its fruit. Together we again discuss how dependence has been a consistent theme that Jesus has been addressing throughout the Sermon on the Plain. We are called to be dependent on Jesus in all things: our actions, our words, our thoughts, and even the fruit in our lives. Recognizing just how blind we are, we continue to understand more and more just how critical dependence is for each moment.

When Scarlett met David, he was on the brink of death. Dependent on a ventilator and in complete kidney failure, David had been in an unresponsive coma for weeks. Now, his family was summoned to say goodbye. Though the situation looked dire, Scarlett—a PhD student at a local university who happened to have a gift for energy healing—felt an intuitive push to offer this dying stranger any help she could. Between teaching classes and tending to her two sons from a previous marriage, Scarlett began daily trips to the hospital.One afternoon, while doing energy work at David's bedside, Scarlett found herself transported out of her body, to a completely different realm. David's spirit was waiting for her there, along with the knowledge that she and David had always known each other in this “forever time.” But that remarkable Shared Near-Death Experience (SNDE) meeting was only the beginning. They both had big decisions to make: whether to live or die, whether to continue hoping or let go.We Met on the Other Side is the inspiring story of two people who found love in the world beyond this one and discovered a way to bring it back to earth.BioScarlett L. Heinbuch, PhD, is an internationally known speaker in the area of near-death experiences, spiritual awareness, and energy healing. Her story was featured on the History Channel's show, The UnXplained, hosted by William Shatner. Dr. Heinbuch coined the term, “Shared Near-Death Experience (SNDE)” after an unusual encounter where she met a dying stranger who had an unexplained healing which resulted in an unusual love story, captured in her memoir, We Met on the Other Side. Others are now experiencing similar encounters and having a new term to express these experiences is opening the door for greater conversations.Scarlett had a childhood Near-Death Experience (NDE) at the age of four, in which she was out of her body and felt the love and awareness of the universe. She has used this awareness in her life in all areas, working in financial services, including several Fortune 500 companies in banking and brokerage, focused on women's financial health and social norms theory. She is retired from the Federal Reserve Bank as an expert in the US payments system.Scarlett holds a PhD in public policy and administration from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and a master's degree in public health (MPH) from VCU's School of Medicine. In addition, Scarlett is certified in two forms of Reiki (Usui and Holy Fire), Hypnotherapy, and NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP). She and David live in Richmond, VA.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C4QZ817Zhttps://scarlettheinbuch.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP

In this week's episode, host Margaret Walls talks with Megan Lawson, an economist and researcher at Headwaters Economics, about how outdoor recreation economies support communities throughout the United States despite creating unique challenges for their residents. Many US communities that border public lands and scenic natural areas have recreation-dependent economies, meaning a majority of the local economy is driven by recreational activities and tourism. Lawson explains how recreation-dependent economies can be vulnerable to over-tourism, shortages in affordable housing, and increased risk of wildfires and floods. Lawson then unpacks the feasibility of public land sales to address challenges in making affordable housing available and describes ways to increase hazard resilience in recreation-dependent communities to protect full-time residents and visitors.

We are better together! This weekend, Pastor Ben continued our study of Galatians by taking us through Chapter 2. When Paul confronts Peter as he loses focus on what truly matters, it displays how honest conversations in community are essential as followers of Jesus!Listen now to learn why faith is all about Jesus (not works!) and how embracing input from others helps us stay focused on what is true!

Relationship is meeting what arises with full feeling and consciousness. Dependent co-origination means that our consciousness arises at the same time as all consciousness. Lost in inner dialogue, we do not experience true relationship. Zazen (sitting) is an opportunity to meet what arises in the moment in a silent, unmoving state. Myosho Ginny Matthews describes practices of zazen, chanting, and samu (work) which were engaged in her sangha and with her teacher, Sasaki Roshi, who came to the U.S. from Japan and lived into his 108th year. We can learn to dissolve through work practice, but it is harder to dissolve into the complexity of work in the world. A teisho is a spontaneous commentary on a koan, which is an enigmatic question used in Rinzai Zen Buddhism to open to a state beyond the fixated self. There is the opportunity to manifest true beingness in koan practice. We can't stay dissolved in the Absolute as a human being—we go in and out. Mystical traditions say our relations come out of the womb that birthed us all. Sweat lodge is an experience of going into the womb of the Earth. Practice is to make relationship with whatever is in our world. We're not in relationship if we're not present and attentive. Death is not an isolated event; it is a complement to the ongoing reborn quality of each moment. We can learn to hold opinions lightly. If we make relationship with the reality of the moment, it's usually not as difficult as we think it will be. In grief, pain lives with us. Suffering is holding onto pain beyond its reality as it changes into something else. We can disappear in a moment of bowing. Myosho Ginny Matthews was a student of Joshu Sasaki Roshi for 40 years. She took lay ordination in 2000, leads retreats on practice, is a dance teacher and choreographer, and is featured in the book, The Unknown She: Eight Faces of an Emerging Consciousness.

In this episode of the Joyful Courage Podcast, I talk with psychologist and author Natalia Aiza about the emotional and practical challenges of parenting highly dependent young adults. We dive into the ways our own anxiety and desire to protect our kids can lead to unhelpful over-accommodation—and how to lovingly step back without stepping away. Natalia shares insights from her upcoming book and the SPACE model, reminding us that while we can't force our kids into therapy or independence, we can shift the environment. We explore real-life examples, including turning off the phone at night, reducing codependence, and letting our kids experience natural consequences. If you've ever wondered how to support your struggling teen or young adult without enabling them, this episode is full of validation, practical tools, and compassion.

Bitter sensing protects Drosophila from developing experience-dependent cocaine consumption preference The Journal of Neuroscience Cocaine use disorder (CUD) is a highly heritable condition for which there are no effective treatments. Testing the many human genetic variants linked to CUD requires a cost-effective, genetically tractable model. This study showed that bitter-sensing neurons prevent cocaine self-administration in Drosophila. Disrupting Drosophila bitter perception enables a model for experience-dependent cocaine preference. The findings underscore the potential of Drosophila as a crucial tool for identifying the genetic mechanisms underlying CUD, aiding in the discovery of new therapeutic targets, and contributing to the development of effective treatments for this highly heritable disease.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Ever feel like you're coaching on repeat?  You've handed a client every tool they need, yet they keep circling back with the same issue.  Or maybe you're working with an athlete who hears everything you say, but nothing seems to land. It's as if they're outsourcing ownership of the entire process. It can start to feel like a rehearsed dance. You say your part, they nod along, and both of you move forward on autopilot. But this doesn't have to be just frustrating—it can be an inflection point for us.  In today's episode, Brett breaks down how to navigate this all-too-common dynamic and use it as a way to better understand what we bring to the table. Because when we hone in on and embrace our unique intangibles—those strong qualities that might even turn some people off—we create opportunities to lead more effectively, grow our business, and stand out in a noisy, boring world where everyone just wants to fit in. In this episode, we cover: No matter what they say, clients come back for more than just results Questions to ask a non-responsive client to encourage ownership—without assigning blame How to get feedback and gain insight into what sets you apart (hint: it's not your experience or certifications) Determine if there's a “psychological nutrient” you're providing—or withholding Bonus: An excerpt from Brett's Observed Absurdity file about department stores, including some hilarious, can't-miss euphemisms and analogies The Apprenticeship If you're tired of struggling through hard conversations or avoiding them altogether, this is your chance to train for them. We'll put you in realistic role-play scenarios and teach you the frameworks that help you navigate conflict, power dynamics, and tough personalities. No fluff. No gurus. Just pressure-tested strategies you can actually use—because the best coaching skills don't perish. Everyone has a coach in their life, and the ability to communicate clearly under pressure pays off in every area—not just work.

Treat yourself like a dependent, because you are one. A community of ONE means that you put your oxygen mask on first before you can help others. Lead by example and let the chips fall where they may.Membership Specials https://swolenormousx.com/membershipsDownload The Swolenormous App https://swolenormousx.com/swolenormousappMERCH - https://papaswolio.com/Watch the full episodes here: https://rumble.com/thedailyswoleSubmit A Question⁠ For The Show: https://swolenormousx.com/apsGet On Papa Swolio's Email List: https://swolenormousx.com/emailDownload The 7 Pillars Ebook: https://swolenormousx.com/7-Pillars-EbookTry A Swolega Class From Inside Swolenormous X: https://www.swolenormousx.com/swolegaGet Your Free $10 In Bitcoin: https://www.swanbitcoin.com/papaswolio/   Questions?

Summer In The Psalms | Week 1 : Dependent - Brian Bloye

In 'Bakit Australia' series, Divina Silvestre shares her migration story from student struggles to Australian citizenship in Darwin, NT. - Sa seryeng 'Bakit Australia,' ibinahagi ni Divina Silvestre ang kanyang migrasyon mula sa pagiging estudyante hanggang sa pagiging Australian citizen sa Northern Territory.

Even the most outwardly successful women quietly wrestle with this. They've achieved degrees. Built the career. Created a beautiful life. And yet… Confidence still feels elusive. It shows up in some moments—and disappears in others. It feels conditional. Fragile. Dependent on things outside of you. In this week's podcast, we're unpacking why this happens—and how to finally shift into embodied confidence that doesn't need proving or performance. Here's what we explore: The subtle (but powerful) difference between ego-based and embodied confidence Why even high-achievers struggle with deep, stable self-trust How your decision-making reveals the truth about your inner power A new lens for reclaiming confidence without needing to “do more” This is about creating a version of confidence that is unshakable—because it's built from within. If you've ever found yourself second-guessing your worth, overthinking decisions, or seeking external validation just to feel “enough”…this episode is your invitation to begin again. No performance. No pretense. Just help you get aligned with your own power.

Ephesians 2:1-10

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Jacqueline Rushin. "The Hidden Hand: How Human Decisions Behind Rapid Technology Deployments Are Driving a Mental Health Crisis." In a world increasingly powered by artificial intelligence, automation, and robotics, the promise of a brighter, more efficient future has never seemed closer. Yet, beneath the surface of technological progress lies an unsettling reality: the very systems designed to enhance our lives are also reshaping the essence of what it means to be human—and not always for the better.The Hidden Hand pulls back the curtain on the unseen forces—corporate priorities, societal values, and governmental policies—that drive technological change, often at the expense of mental health, self-identity, and social connection. With over 65 years of combined experience in mental health, addictions counseling, technology, ministry, and holistic health, authors Dr. Jacqueline Rushin and Patrice Alexander, LPC deliver a deeply personal, thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between innovation and humanity.Through compelling case studies, statistics, and profound insights, this book exposes: The mental health toll of technological displacement and job loss. How AI-driven systems distort self-identity and erode genuine human connection. The rising epidemic of tech addiction and its impact on individuals and families. The ethical dilemmas of a world where efficiency often trumps empathy. The red flags warning us of these issues and many more. But this is not just a story of challenges—it is also a call to action. The Hidden Hand empowers readers with the tools to navigate a digital age, offering practical strategies to protect mental health, preserve self-worth, and champion human-centric solutions. The Hidden Hand will inspire you to ask bold questions: Are we making choices that elevate humanity, or are we allowing profit and productivity to define our future? How can we reclaim the human element in a world increasingly dominated by machines?This book is not just an exposé—it’s prompts readers to reflect, recalibrate, and act. The Hidden Hand is essential reading for leaders, mental health professionals, technologists, and anyone who cares about safeguarding humanity in the age of AI. The future isn’t shaped by technology, rather by our decisions - the hidden hands. #AMI #BEST #STRAW #SHMS See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Spero Deddes said on The Ken Carmen Show with Anthony Lima that the Cavs might be too dependent on Donovan Mitchell to lead the offense. Afternoon Drive reacts to those comments and poses the same question.

In this episode, we'll discuss what it takes to create a good setup for a moisture dependent tarantula. 

Ralph talks about his new book, “Civic Self Respect” which reminds us that our civic lives have different primary roles—not only voter, but also worker, taxpayer, consumer, sometimes soldier and sometimes parent—and how each one offers special opportunities for people to organize to make change. Plus, we welcome back former commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, John Koskinen, who tells us exactly how the Trump/Musk cabal is both gutting and weaponizing the IRS.John Koskinen served as the IRS Commissioner from 2013 to 2017.This is not a how-to book. It starts at a much more elementary level and therefore should interest a much greater number of people. Because, as I say, if you can expand your civic dimension as a part of your daily role without disrupting the rhythms of your daily life (in fact, actually making them more gratifying and more interesting, less boring), you're on your way.Ralph Nader author of Civic Self-RespectThe people who really fight for justice in this country have to fight for recognition, they have to fight for media, they have to fight an onslaught. And the people who lie and cheat and say the most terrible things and do the most terrible things are really the best-known people in the country. I mean, if you say who are the best-known people in Congress? They're the blowhards, the cruel and vicious people who've said things that are illegal, outrageous against innocent groups here and abroad.Ralph NaderI used to say to the Congress (trying to get appropriations) that the IRS is the only agency where if you give it money, it gives you more money back. Because the more you can actually audit people who aren't paying the proper amount or aren't filing at all, the better off you are. So no one has ever disagreed with that.John KoskinenGoing back a thousand years, tax collectors have never been particularly popular. And so when you talk about the IRS, people say, "Oh, the poor old IRS." In some ways, they don't understand just the points you're making about the impact on them, on the country, of an ineffective IRS going forward. And that's why my thought is this move toward using the IRS to attack people ought to be a way for everyone to say, "You know, I may not love paying taxes, but I certainly don't want the government and the president or the treasury secretary or somebody else ordering an audit of my taxes just because they don't like my political position or what I'm teaching in my course.”John KoskinenRalph Nader's new book Civic Self-respect is available now from Seven Stories Press.News 4/16/251. On Thursday April 17th, Senator Chris Van Hollen of Maryland departed for El Salvador in an effort to personally track down Maryland resident Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an immigrant who was arrested and deported to CECOT, the notorious Salvadoran prison camp, WUSA9 reports. Garcia was legally protected against deportation by a 2019 court order and a Trump administration official admitted in court that he “should never have been on that plane.” Last week, the Supreme Court unanimously ordered that he be returned to the U.S. Van Hollen is quoted saying “You go out, you get disappeared, they say they did it in error, but they're not helping bring you back…it's a very short road to tyranny.” Gracia has not been heard from since he was deported, raising concerns about his health and wellbeing. This comes after ICE Director Todd Lyons said he wanted to see a deportation process “like [Amazon] Prime, but with human beings,” per the Guardian. This episode is among the most chilling in American history and we are less than four months into a four-year term.2. Another gut-wrenching immigration story concerns Palestinian Columbia University student, Mohsen Mahdawi who was tricked, trapped, and abducted by ICE. The Intercept reports “Even before his friend and fellow Columbia activist Mahmoud Khalil was arrested by immigration authorities, Mahdawi asked university administrators to help him find a safe place to live so he would not be taken by ICE agents…The school did nothing.” Then, “After ICE abducted Khalil last month, Mahdawi sheltered in place for more than three weeks for fear of being picked up himself.” So, the immigration authorities apparently devised a scheme. “Instead of taking him off the street…immigration authorities scheduled the citizenship test at the Colchester USCIS office and took Mahdawi into custody when he arrived.” This action is clearly intended not only to capture Mahdawi but to frighten immigrants and discourage them from seeking citizenship through the legal immigration channels for fear of being deported. Not only that, Mahdawi will be sent back to Palestine, which continues to be the target of relentless Israeli bombing. Mahdawi is quoted saying, “It's kind of a death sentence…my people are being killed unjustly in an indiscriminate way.”3. In more international news, CNN reports China has “halted” its deliveries of Boeing planes. According to President Trump, will “‘not take possession' of fully committed to aircraft.” According to CNN, Boeing is particularly vulnerable in a trade war scenario because “Boeing builds all of its planes at US factories before sending nearly two-thirds of its commercial planes to customers outside the United States.” Boeing anticipated China purchasing 8,830 new planes over the next 20 years. The aircraft manufacturer's stock value fell in the wake of this announcement and is unlikely to fully recover unless some accommodation is reached with China.4. On the other side of the trade war, the Trump administration is preparing to roll out steep sectoral tariffs in addition to the country-specific tariffs already announced, per the Washington Post's Jeff Stein. Stein reports these will target imports of various "critical" products, including autos, steel and aluminum, copper, lumber and semiconductors. Yet, likely no sectoral tariff will bite American consumers more than the proposed tariff on pharmaceutical drugs. On April 8th, POLITICO reported that Trump told the RNC he is planning to impose “major” tariffs on pharmaceuticals. FIERCE, a healthcare news service, reports these could be as high as 25%. Coalition for a Prosperous America, an advocacy group opposed to free trade with China, reports that “Over 90% of all Generic Drugs [are] Dependent on Imports.”5. Turning to domestic matters, the Federal Trade Commission is proceeding with their anti-trust case against Facebook. According to the FTC, “The…Commission has sued Facebook, alleging that the company is illegally maintaining its personal social networking monopoly through a years-long course of anticompetitive conduct.” Further, “The complaint alleges that Facebook has engaged in a systematic strategy—including its 2012 acquisition of…Instagram, its 2014 acquisition…WhatsApp, and the imposition of anticompetitive conditions on software developers—to eliminate threats to its monopoly.” According to Ars Technica, “Daniel Matheson, the FTC's lead litigator, [started the trial with a bang] flagg[ing] a "smoking gun"—a 2012 email where Mark Zuckerberg suggested that Facebook could buy Instagram to ‘neutralize a potential competitor.'” It is hard to see how the company could argue this was not anticompetitive corporate misbehavior.6. A dubious tech industry scheme is also underway at the highest levels of the federal government. WIRED reports that the Social Security Administration is shifting their communications exclusively to Elon Musk's X app, formerly known as Twitter. Wired quotes SSA regional commissioner Linda Kerr-Davis, who said in a meeting with managers earlier this week, “We are no longer planning to issue press releases or…dear colleague letters to inform the media and public about programmatic and service changes…Instead, the agency will be using X to communicate to the press and the public … this will become our communication mechanism.” WIRED further reports that, “The regional [SSA] office workforce will soon be cut by roughly 87 percent,” going from an estimated 547 employees to 70. Musk has called Social Security “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time,” per the AP.7. Over at the National Labor Relations Board, a whistleblower claims Elon Musk and his cronies at DOGE may have extracted data including “sensitive information on unions, ongoing legal cases and corporate secrets,” per NPR. If that wasn't shady enough, “members of the DOGE team asked that their activities not be logged on the system and then appeared to try to cover their tracks…turning off monitoring tools and manually deleting records of their access.” This whistleblower took his concerns to Congress and the U.S. Office of Special Counsel – whistleblower activities that are protected by law – but faced retaliation in the form of someone, “'physically taping a threatening note' to his door that included sensitive personal information and overhead photos of him walking his dog that appeared to be taken with a drone,” clear attempts to intimidate and silence this employee. The Trump administrations have been rife with leaks at every level and instead of responding by addressing the issues raised, the administration has launched a permanent inquisition to plug the leaks by any means.8. In better news, the Independent reports that DOGE itself is finally being subjected to an audit. The audit is being undertaken by the Government Accountability Office at the urging of Congressional leaders after “'alarming' media reports of DOGE infiltrating federal systems,” according to a congressional aide. One DOGE worker has reportedly been identified by as “a 19-year-old high school graduate who was booted from an internship after leaking company information to a rival firm,” raising ever-deeper concerns about the purpose of the “fishing expeditions” DOGE is undergoing at every level of the federal government.9. Another uplifting story comes to us from New York City. In the latest round of public matching fund awards, Zohran Mamdani – the Democratic Socialist candidate surging from obscurity into second place in the polls – was granted nearly $4 million in public matching funds, “the largest single payment to any candidate in the 2025 Democratic mayoral primary race to date,” according to Gothamist. Meanwhile, former Governor Andrew Cuomo was awarded exactly $0. As Jeff Coltin of POLITICO New York explains, “Cuomo's campaign [was] scrambling to get the necessary info from donors to get matched…sending…dire warning to [his] entire email list, rather than…targeted outreach to donors.” If he had collected the necessary information, Cuomo would have been awarded $2.5 million in matching funds, Coltin reports. Cuomo still leads in the polls; as it becomes increasingly clear that Zohran is the only viable alternative, there will be increased pressure on other candidates to throw their support behind him.10. Finally, let's take a peek into the political climate's effect on Hollywood. New York Magazine, in an extensive profile of Warner Brothers-Discovery mogul David Zaslav, includes a piece about Zaslav seeking to ingratiate himself with Trump. According to this report, “a company representative recently reached out to the Trump0 orbit seeking advice about how the company might advantageously interact with the Whitte House.” Their answer: “look at the example of…Jeff Bezos paying Melania Trump $40 million to participate in a documentary about herself. Don Jr. might like a hunting and fishing show on the Discovery Channel, they were told.” Just like the Ivy League universities and the big law firms, if given an inch Trump will take a mile and use it for nothing short of extortion. Hollywood would be wise to steer clear. But wisdom has never been their strength.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
