407: If you are wanting to lose weight, get off medications, improve your brain health, metabolic health, reverse diabetes, and even help with your gut issues, this episode is JUST for you! Oh, and you don't need to spend any money on a special supplement, pill, or biohacking device. - Today's episode may be my favorite interview not just this year, but in all the 4 years I've had this podcast! I know that's saying a lot, but honestly, we didn't even scratch the surface of what we covered with Dr. Anthony Chaffee. You may have heard of him, but if you haven't, Dr. Anthony Chaffee is a medical doctor who earned his degree from the Royal College of Surgeons and has worked as a neurosurgical registrar and resident in Australia, while often coming back to the U.S.He is a hardcore carnivore, or "strict" carnivore, and has personally experienced major health benefits. He has also seen his own patients reverse type 1 & 2 diabetes, get off all medications, reverse dementia and Alzheimer's, improve gut issues such as Crohn's and colitis, reduce inflammation in the body, and so much more, all by removing plants and eating meat. We also discuss the corrupt food industry and the literature behind studies that say you need fiber or that carbs aren't the issue, because many may not know that the people and companies funding these studies will, more often than not, sway the outcome in their favor. Topics Discussed: → Why Dr. Chaffee Went Carnivore → Studies That Show Improvement With a Carnivore Diet → Dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's Disease, IBS, Crohn's, Colitis, Weight Loss, Arthritis, Fatigue, Type 1 & 2 Diabetes → Why No Dairy? → Is Carnivore Safe for Kids? → The Corrupt Industry → Who's Really Funding These Studies? → Why Vegetables Cause Harm → Misconceptions About the Carnivore Diet → How to Do Carnivore While Your Family Doesn't As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

With over 26 years ofcoaching experience across sport, health, and performance, she helps people better understand how their brains work so they can build systems, habits, and environments that actually support success.She is especially passionate about helping individuals recognize that different ways of thinking are not deficits, but opportunities to build lives and systems that truly work for them.Connect with Saara:Websties:DrSaara.comPerformanceishaappanen.comMoveatworkchallenge.comSocials:LinkedInSaara's FacebookPerformance is Haapanen FacebookInstagramStay in the loop with the new Different Ability® product I'll be launching!Sign Up Here!Shop new products here!Places you can reach me at:Website:https://kateyfortun.com/https://kateyfortun.com/podcastInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/kateyfortun/https://www.instagram.com/differentabilitypodcast/

What did you think of this episode?What if Facebook limited the links you can share as a writer? Would you have to pay to reach readers—or could a better conversation do more than another link ever did? Today, Edie Melson helps us sort through Meta One, check what actually applies to our accounts, and make it easier for interested readers to find us. Edie Melson is an author, speaker, and photographer. Her blog, The Write Conversation, reaches thousands of writers and has been recognized among Writer's Digest's Top 101 Sites for Writers since 2017. She's also the executive director of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference and serves on the board of the Advanced Writers and Speakers Association. Edie, welcome to Your Best Writing Life! Questions we cover:When writers see a post saying Facebook is becoming “pay to play,” what should they understand before they panic or purchase a subscription? In your post, you distinguish Facebook Pages and Professional Mode profiles from ordinary personal profiles. What should a listener check on her own account, and what remains uncertain? Are groups part of the same reported test? What is happening with external links on Facebook, as far as you can verify today? If a writer sees a limit, does it affect posts, comments, or both on her particular account?Your response was “I'm not panicking.” What have you been teaching writers about social media that helps you stay calm?Walk us through a real example from The Write Conversation. How do you turn an article into a Facebook post that invites conversation and stands on its own?You have often placed the link in the first comment. Does that still work for you? Why might a listener need a backup route if comments are restricted on her account?You wrote that writers must watch their focus because “it's never all about me.” How can we tell whether a post offers something useful to the reader or merely asks for a click?You call social media “rented property.” For the writer who has never built a link hub, what is it, and why might a links page on her own website be useful? Read Edie's post on Meta One hereEdie MelsonContact Edie MelsonVisit Your Best Writing Life website.Join our Facebook group, Your Best Writing LifeYour host - Linda Goldfarb#4 Podcast 2026 "Million Podcasts Top 30 Christian Writers Podcasts"#1 Podcast 2024 "Top 50+ Must-Have Tools and Resources for Christian Writers.Awarded the Spark Media 2023 Fan Favorites Best Solo PodcastAwarded the Spark Media 2022 Most Binge-Worthy Podcast

A desire to simplify, an upcoming move, a remodel, and general overwhelm are among the many reasons we are called to rightsize our lives.

What if the couple getting married this weekend already said their vows privately three days ago, over takeaway dinner, in their pajamas, with absolutely no one else in the room.Wedding ceremonies as we once knew them are being rewritten right now, not because the words matter more than they used to, but because couples are deciding who gets to be part of that moment, and when.Today I am getting into what a private vow exchange actually looks like in practice and some of the options available to you before your ceremony even begins, why your guests will be completely on board with it, and why and why after 18 years of celebrant work I believe this shift has got very little to do with the actual vows themselves and everything to do with freedom of choice. Resources Mentioned:Zola 2025 First Look Report: https://www.zola.com/expert-advice/the-first-look-report-2025Zola 2026 First Look Report (lists private vows as a trend): https://www.zola.com/expert-advice/the-first-look-report-2026Reader's Digest, Jan Goss quoted alongside the Zola finding: https://www.rd.com/article/common-wedding-tradition-disappearing/The Bridal Journey, "You're Invited to the Wedding, Not the Vows" (28 July 2025): https://thebridaljourney.com/youre-invited-to-the-wedding-not-the-vows-why-couples-are-choosing-privacy-for-their-most-personal-promises/Send Unbridely a 90-second audio message on Speakpipe: https://www.speakpipe.com/unbridelypodcast*The Unbridely Podcast is sponsored by its listeners.

Traditional networking is getting louder, colder, and more automated, and that leaves a lot of business owners feeling disconnected. Instead of forcing small talk over stale coffee, Brandie Weaver of The Listening Table is bringing people back around a real dinner table, where intentional conversation, chef-led meals, and live music create authentic relationships that actually matter. Her traveling supper club attracts Americana music fans, entrepreneurs, and business owners who are tired of transactional networking and ready for genuine community. In this episode, Brandie shares how she turned a decade of producing large-scale music festivals into a high-touch, relationship-driven business model. She explains how The Listening Table is carefully curated long before guests ever sit down: researching attendees in advance, placing people at the right tables, and using personalized place cards with funny facts to spark conversation and laughter. Phones are put away, awkwardness is eased, and even the most extroverted attendees feel supported walking into the room. The result is a space where people don't just exchange business cards, they form friendships, travel to shows together, and collaborate on real projects. Brandie also walks through the business side of creating premium, intimate experiences in an industry with tight margins. Running The Listening Table alongside her experiential marketing agency, she uses per-seat pricing, memberships, and smart negotiation with chefs and artists to make each event sustainable without sacrificing quality. For guests, the ticket isn't just a fancy night out, it's an immersive experience that would easily cost as much as a high-end concert and dinner, but with deeper connection built in. https://youtu.be/XxskL_dPRz4?si=-9NDi9cNdPgdHTZw A big focus of the conversation is Brandie's belief that the smallest details can have the biggest emotional impact. From vintage 1960s Reader's Digest books hollowed out to reveal branded flasks, to desserts paired with guests' favorite cocktails, every touchpoint is designed to make people feel seen, valued, and part of something special. As she looks ahead to future dinners in Driftwood and Bentonville and an expanded calendar of events in 2027, Brandie is committed to one simple goal: ensuring that everyone who joins The Listening Table walks out feeling better, more connected, and more human than when they walked in. If you've been craving deeper, more meaningful networking in a fast, AI-driven world, this episode offers a powerful blueprint for creating experiences that people never forget. Quotes: "All I can say is, you just have to come to a dinner and experience it; you'll understand, it's magic." "We don't just go to attend an event to wander around a room, never have anyone speak to us, and walk out feeling more lonely than we did before we arrived." "As we disconnect in order to bring us all back together for connection, we just need to be nice to one another and think about these things."

What makes an ending feel surprising without feeling random?The best twists don't blindside the audience. They blindside the character.In this episode, Zena Dell Lowe explores how storytellers can create endings that satisfy two seemingly opposite desires: the audience's desire to be surprised and their need for the story to make sense.The key is disruption. Give your protagonist a real plan, then blow it up with something beyond their reasonable control. Plant that disruption properly, and the audience gets to discover the way out alongside the character—rather than feeling like the writer simply pulled a surprise out of nowhere.Zena also explains why intelligent antagonists make stronger sources of dramatic conflict than bad luck, how disruption reveals true character, and why the best endings feel surprising in the moment and inevitable in hindsight.If you're a writer, storyteller, novelist, screenwriter, or anyone trying to craft a stronger ending, this episode will give you a new way to think about twists, foreshadowing, conflict, and payoff.Subscribe to The Storyteller's Mission so you don't miss the next episode.Watch this episode on YouTubeFree Resources for Writers:Seven Deadly Plot Points FREE TRAINING VIDEO Free Video Tutorial for ScreenwritingSign up for The Storyteller's Digest, my exclusive bi-monthly newsletter for writers and storytellers.

A brief overview and summary of the daily portion of three chapters of Rambam's Mishnah Torah, as an aid to enhance the study and review of the day's Rambam.

406: I honestly was hesitant to have today's guest on because as most of you know, I am a Christian and because of my faith I don't like to entertain or promote anything that may "woo woo" - but as I did my own research in this space, come to find out there is nothing "woo woo" about today's topic. And that's quantum energy. If you listen to this entire interview I have with Todd Shipman from the company Leela Quantum, I know you will agree that what we are talking about is REAL and happening. If you are one to have food allergies, or living with mold or lyme disease, or perhaps you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant, or you just have an autoimmune disease, this may actually change the game in your effort to heal! In the conversation with Todd, we talk about what quantum energy actually is and why we can't see it - just like why we can't see EMFs, sound waves, and other frequencies....but just because we can't see them doesn't mean they don't exist. And that's what quantum energy is and how quantum energy can help neutralize EMFs and other harmful radiation frequencies in today's modern world of technology.  These devices and products actually help mitigate the harmful effects EMFs and technology has on our body and can even help if you have nutritional deficiencies and food allergies which Todd explains in this interview.  Upgrade your energy, harmonize your EMF exposure, and elevate your wellness with Leela Quantum Tech's science-backed quantum technology and get 10% off at https://leelaq.com/ when you use code DIGEST at checkout.  Topics Discussed:  → What is “quantum energy”? → What EMFs and other frequencies doing to our health → Benefits of quantum energy → Side effects EMFs can have on the body → How frequencies are causing food allergies and nutrient deficiencies → Ways to use Leela Quantum → The science on how it works → Who can benefit from quantum energy As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

**In this solo episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we explore Srinath Raghavan's brilliant *India's War: The Making of Modern South Asia, 1939–1945* – a book that places India at the centre of the Second World War, rather than at its margins.**India is frequently overlooked in histories of the Second World War. When it appears at all, it is as a source of manpower for the British Empire – a vast reservoir of soldiers and labourers to be deployed in the Middle East, Asia and Europe. But as Raghavan demonstrates, India was not simply a British asset. It was the engine of the Allied war effort in the East – and the war transformed it in ways that would lead, inexorably, to independence.By December 1941, when Nehru emerged from prison, India stood at the intersection of two major theatres of war: the Mediterranean and North Africa on one side, and South Asia, China and the Pacific on the other. The defence of India was no longer a British prerogative; it had become a focal point of Allied grand strategy. Indian politics could not be insulated from the pressures emanating from Britain's key wartime allies.Drawing on Raghavan's narrative, we trace the debates within the Congress Party as it wrestled with the question of whether to cooperate with the British war effort. Gandhi insisted on non-violence and non-participation; Nehru advocated non-participation for political reasons; a third group, led by Rajagopalachari, believed that cooperation was available – if the British did the right thing. The compromise resolution that emerged was, as Gandhi observed, "like the Indian dish *khichri*" – a mixture of pulses, rice, salt, chilli and spices.We also examine the American perspective on India, which was shaped by a mixture of exotic fantasy, missionary prejudice and strategic calculation. By 1941, the State Department had concluded that the situation in India was "very serious indeed" and that the Viceroy, Lord Linlithgow, was "a man of small vision." American officials took a sympathetic stance towards Congress demands, reporting that the British were following a policy of "divide and rule." Even the conservative *Reader's Digest* carried a favourable profile of Nehru. The British cabinet, alert to American opinion, took hardly any major decision on India without reference to its impact on public opinion in the United States.**Topics covered:**- India's central role in the Second World War- The Congress Party debates on cooperation and non-participation- Gandhi, Nehru and Rajagopalachari- The "Quit India" campaign and the refusal of Indian soldiers to serve- American perceptions of India and the British Raj- The strategic importance of India to the Allied war effort- The beginning of the end of the British Empire in India---*If you enjoy the podcast, please consider supporting us – we are migrating from Patreon to Substack.

Matty Dalrymple talks with Dan Blank about SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY FOR AUTHORS, including why fragmented platforms need not mean the end of social media, how human stories stand out amid AI-generated content, why simple narratives and imperfect presentation can build trust, how writers can define core messages and learn directly from readers, when to reset an uninspiring feed, and why choosing one comfortable home base—especially a newsletter—creates room to experiment and learn what resonates.
